TRUE PRINCIPLES OF
REPUBLlCANISM

However ardently the triumph of
truly Republican principles and the cleo
ton of worthy public candidate such
as Warner may be desired, no inteli-
gent member of the party can feel
anything but contempt for those dense
and disingenuous organs of the oppO-
sition, supporting Lewis, which howl
warnings Of disaster in the event Of Re-
publican success. These absurd decla-
rations disgust thinking men and, be-
sides doing harm to the Democratic
party, are calculated to ALLEVIATE the
great Independent vote, that so often
hold the balance power, and which, in
the present election, is bound to cleave
to Warner. Misrepresentation never
hurts worthy cause; and the Republi-
can cause is a worthy cause. The
knowledge the Democrats may have is
that they may be certain that their mis-
representation will react to the injury
of their party. Do the alarmist organs
fancy that the people have SO soon for
gotten the panic and Democratic ad-
versitY OF Cleveland's time.
Republicanism-the school of political
thought that has been ornameDted by
Lincoln, Seward, Blaine, Mckinley,
Roosevelt. Dolliyer, and many others
is something vaster, nobler and more
magnificent than peanut Democracy can
conceive. 1t is not offered, as its de-
tractors seem to think, as an unfallible
cure for financial bunions or CONNER
cial corns, nor as the vaccine preventa-
tive of the natural and inevitable re-
suits of reckless speculation and an i'm
perfect econmic system. 1t is simply
an idea that Of steady, consistent pro-
gress along the line Of legitimate legis-
latlon toward the Democratic ideal of a
government completely of, for and by
the people. 1t needs no apologists-
detractors- any liars.

CATASTROPHE IN
MODEL MINE
Forty Miners Entombed in
Coal Workings Near
Birmingham Ala.
Nh H0pl E0p TuE MnIlMc
NO HOPE FOR THE VICTIMS
The Shaft Has Been Sealed to
Prevent Spread of
the Fire.

Birmingham, Ala, April 21--Little
hope is expressed this morning that
any of the 35 or 40 miners imprisoned
in the Mula mine of the Birmingham
Coal and Iron Company, as a result
of the explosion about 8 o'clock last
night, will be rescued alive. 1t is
learned that it will be impossible to
gain entrance to the mine through the
shaft because of cages sprung in the
passage entrance and sealed to pre-
vent, if possible, spread of the fire.
Shortly after midnight, the hospital
cart rushed to the scene equipped
paraphernalia for entering the gaseous
mine Hospital ambulances were also
sent fro Ensley and Birmingham to
the scene, about u miles northwest
of Birmingham. The only list of names
of miners at work at the time of the
explosion is held by the foreman of
the gang at work. Among those en-
tombed are believed to be about Is
white men and 20 to 25 negroes The
mine has been in operation about two
years and was considered model of
its kind.
The fact that flames shot from the
mouth of the shaft to height of $50
feet leads to the belief that the explo-
sion occurred near the bottom of the
main shaft cutting off any means of
escape for the miners.
Scenes Beggared Description.
Birmingham, April 21-The scenes
around the entrance to the mine in
the early morning hours beggared de-
scription. In addition to the families
Of the entombed men, hundreds from
the surrounding mining districts
swelled the crowds until it was with
great difficulty that the work of rescue
could be carried on. Nothing has been
heard from the entombed men.
Every One Perished.
Birmingham, April 21.-Not one of
the Al men imprisoned last night in
the Mulga mine of the Birmingham
Iron and Coal Company is alive. This
word was brought to the surface this
morning to the waiting and weeping
families of the victims. When un-
conscious from the deadly gas and
shaft. superintendent John of the
mine, a man named Bonds and an
unknown who risked his life for those
already perished were drawn to the
fresh air.

Before leaving overland for Taos to

that radical change is to be made
here in the handling of freight. In
the future the Denver & Rio Grande

is, if five days or less is sufficient to
bring the freight from Denver, it is
to be brought here in that time or the

JIM JEFFRIES PUTTING
UP A BLUFF.
TeIegraphing Out News About His
ProWess Just to Scare His
Opponent.

Ben LomOnd, Calf. April 21.-Jim
.Jeffries in his training bout is show
ingfi little inclination to box. He'd
rather rough it. Following his three
rounds with Bob Armstrong yesterday
Jeffries remarked he preferred Is
rounds of fast fighting to two rounds
of sparring. This penchant of the big
fighter for heavy work brings up the
question whether the training Of his
opponent is husky enough to face JEFF
fries.
1t will be found, it's easy to see,
that Armstrong entertains no such
preference for real fighting as Jeffries.
Armstrons unwillingness to mix is
responsible, it is surmised, for JEFF
ries' decision to pull of yesterdays
bout in the hand ball court and not
the indoor ring.
Ministers Against the Fighters.
Los Angeles, Cal, April 21.-The

cially warm section reads:
ITO become divorce clearing
house for the nation like Nevada and
some other states is bad enough, but
for the great state of California to be
made one vast coliseum for the exhi-
bition of these most brutal sports, is
disgrace and degradation to which
