ing Italian who admittedly won her
heart, even if he failed to win her
hand. The faithful Hit has never
abandoned hope: of that there can be
no doubt. and a good many of Miss
Elkins' friends were about convinced
on more than one occasion that he fin
ally was to have the reward he so earn
estly sought. Since then, however, the
senator from West Virginia, Miss Ell
kins' father, died, which temporarily
called a halt on everything, and now
the duke is winning new triumphs as
commander of one of the fleets in the
war" against Turkey, which at least
brought him to the fore again, and
necessarily stirred old memories in the
heart of Miss Elkins
Certain it is that unless Miss Elkins
does something soon the tongues of the
gossips will become paralyzed.
Brunettes are the lucky ones this
season. This IS true because the crea-
tors of all the mOdish hats and gowns
have decreed that brunettes are more
adapted to the reigning colors. At the

do little criminals? You ask me to
name trust that can not be punished

the Standard Oil trust, the tobacco
trust and the steel trust, and | call
you as witness TO prove that the law,
as amended by your judges, Is worth
less as a criminal law. Will you admit
it, or do you prefer to take the posi-
ton that big criminals should not be
sent TO the penitentiary? Explain why
you do not prosecute the steel trust

And worse than that, must wear

Learn to shout in a foreign language

Mr.. President: Why do you begin

prosecution against the officials of the
steel trust? In Your attorney gener-
ais petition the defendants are charg-
ed with the violation Of criminal law
Why DO you hesitate 10 ASK for a con-

less as a criminal statute. since the

any kind of hose supporters that

1t is impossible to get hose sup
porters that will not give the trou-

avoided by stitching to the tops OF
your stocking strips of cloth with
button holes made in them. Fasten
the supporter in the buttonhole in

The Old Bogey Man Again

The trust game Of bringing out the
old DOGGY man called business de-
preston" who always is kept right up
in the front part of the stage when
ever an election approaches, is being
| played again. From Wall street comes
the cry that democratic investigations,
and supreme court decisions, and the
such calamities are constantly threat
ening business.
The purpose OF these walls, it is be
coming more and more apparent is to
gradually brighten the voters of the
country into a state OF mind that will
make them fear TO put in power an
administration which will cut the high
tariff duties
The trusts pretend to be greatly
wrought up over recent suits against
some of their num- Der. They pretend,
for instance. to be in a panic because
OF the suit against the steel trust, and
are trying TO make the country believe
such activities as these against big
trial depression.
And while they are sending out these
alarms they know that the suit against
the steel trust will amount to nothing
as long as a republican administration
is in power to prosecute it, Similar
suits were filed gainst the beef trust
by republican attorney general eight
years ago, and that suit hasn't pro-
crossed an inch since it was filed. not
withstanding that il has been held up
dozens of times as a horrible exam
pie of the way the politicians were
disturbing business.
If the suit against the steel trust
were prosecuted with all reasonable
dispatch it would require two or three
years to get il before the supreme
court, hence the cry that this suit
alarms business becomes ridiculous
The real reason business is alarmed
if il is true that business is alarmed
which is a question that is open to ar
gument-is the fear OF those business
men who operate on a moderate scale
that the money trust is getting a grip
on the Industrial situation which no
political party will be able TO break
These small business men are appre-

fear the money trust controlled by
Morgan will make some move to dis
cipline those who are crying for low
tariff and for some relief from the alb
normally high cost of living
The Morgan crowd is standpat repub-
lican to the core, and regardless of
what Wall street talks about now.
there is little doubt that what it is
thinking about is the possibility of
tariff cut by the democrats. To fore
stall this menace the billionaires are
stirring up the old cry of danger to
business" and getting ready 10 make
their usual attempt to coerce another
standpat republican victory a year
from now.
The tariff is still the issue on which
the two parties must fight il out next
year. Knowing this, Wall street is
already laying plans, and since the
only weapon these money barons know
how to use, since they have neither
facts nor justice to aid them, is the
threat of slack business. Their pres
ent walls simply are practice stunSs
to get the old DOGGY in working order
for the coming campaign.
