We were little disappointed
at the mention of the High School
Meet in the Liberal Democrat.
That paper seemed to be little
off because Liberal did not corral
all the first prizes and while not
accusing the judges of dishones-
ty, insinuated that they gave
awards to Meade simply to even
things up. This was not the
case. All the events were close
and if there was criticism and
sore spots it should be on the
part of Meade. But Meade is
not sore. The Judges did their
best to award where it was mer-
tied and the Democrat should be
satisfied. Their contestants did
all that could be expected and
won four firsts in the literary
program. Some people cannot
take the decision of the Judge as
final but let their prejudice de-
eide. 1t is alright to stand up
for ones town but it is not nee
essary to cast reflections on hon
est and concientious people who
accept difficult task because it
is a duty.

TAFT SAYS HE WILL CONTINUE
 TO PROSECUTE THE TRUSTS
..........,.............................

Newcastle Wyo., october 20.-President Taft again made it clear in speech here tonight that it is his intention to enforce the Sherman antitrust act no matter how much offending corporations squeal Cor mercy.
 "The supreme court,' said MT Taft, has rendered two decisions, one against the Standard Oil company requiring it to be broken up and disintegrated into parts and the other against the Ameri- eau Tobacco conpany. There are other companieg that are charged in the same way. Some of them are coming in vol untarily to divide themselves up and Just as we are about to reach proper success full administration of the law we begin to find that there are some people who object to the administration because of the fact that we are prosecuting those trusts and we are enforcing the law It is a case where the administration is go- ing to be damned if it don't and damned if 1t does. Our understanding in the ad- mInistrauon is that when the President lifted his hand and swore to defend the constitution and enforce the law, it meant something and when there was law upon the statute books for 20 years to sup press these combinations against inter-

state trade to monopolize and to inter- fere with that trade and to control prices that it was his business and the business of all under him to enforce the law, and that is what we are doing, and that Is what we propose to do no matter whether we be damned or not
 Continuing he said:
 'The prosecutions of those great com binations that have been trying to pro- vent competition must go on until either the law Is repealed or the law is en- forced; that no combination shall .,xist which shall be able' to prevent coa1nstt- tior. and estabiish u monopoly, and that is the policy which the administratio on has adopted and one it proposes to carry through"
 Mr Taft spent the hours in travelling in northern Wyoming. He started at Sheridan in the morning with the ther- mometer down around 20 degrees and stopped for the night in Newcastle.
 Not much improvement in the tempera- ture was noted. Mr. Taft's address here was started just as snow began to fall. At Sheridan the President was taken for a three mile ride to Fort Mckenzie. It was cold enough to make buffalo robes and heavy overcoats comfortable and MT. Taft stopped a few minutes in post head quarters to get warm. He spoke there in the tabernacle under canvas to sev- eral thousand persons on peace and rbi- tration.

ROBERT SHIELDS DENIES ALL
 CHARGES MADE AGAINST HIM

Milwaukee, Wis, October 20.-Robert J. Shields, mentioned in previous testimony as having been employed by Edward Hines, the lumberman, special occa- sions, denied before the senatorial inves- tieating committee today that he had as- sisted improperly in the election Of Unit el States Senator Stephenson.
 He denied he had anything to do with the agreement whereby Hines and Ste phenson were expected to contribute s55,- coo to put over the Stephenson elec- tion or that he received $750O or any amount for his share for such work.
 The witness admitted he was present at the joint session of the legislature on
 March I, 1909, when three democratie members absented themselves and thus save Stephenson a majority. He said he did not know the democratic members
 were absent until after the election. Previous to Shields appearance Wirt
 Fl Crook, a lumberman, testified he had d talk with Shields train between Duluth and Chicago late in 1909. Having in mind a story told him by Daniel Haley, a Duluth lumberman, that Shields had a dispute with Hines because he (Shields) was to receive s15,O00 for doing job at Madison. But only got s7o0o for it. l Cook testified that he had asked Shields
 .fhew did you come out on that Madison ;oo?'' and siifslds had replied, 'that'S all settled.'
 Shields on the stand said he never had

New York, October 90.-Bradley Mar tin, Jr former president of the van Norden Trust company, and vice presi- dent of the Nineteenth ward bank, was examined today in the prosecution ol William J. Cummins, former chairman of the executive committee of the Car negie Trust company, who is on trial for the alleged larceny of S1io000 said to have been part of fund deposited with the Carnegie company by. Martins in- stitution.
 The most interesting feature of Martin s testimony developed in his cross exam inaton. which threw light upon Cum mins' line of defense.
 After referring to the breaking of the relations between Cummns and Jordan Rollins, who had been Cummins' lawyer. the defendants counsel asked the witness if Cummins had not told him that H. P. DaVison, a partner of J. P. Jordan, threatened to break him in conjunction with a deal for the organization of the Independent FertiliZng company. in which Cummns refused to accept s500- 900 for services. Cummins wanted, it was

made such a remark. Shields also denied th.s testimony of Cook: Shield told me he would shoot him if did him any Earm." During his examination Charles r. Iittlefield, counsel for Senator Ste nhenson, referred to a conversation, the details of which had been given by Cook. sook testified that in May 1909 in hotel lobby in Chicago he overheard Hines say to Henry Furnish, Cooks partner "I am having an awful time. For instance. there is Stephenson voting for free lum- Der and after 1 elected him, too. I have had a terrible time getting him lined up. It also seems hard to get those southern democrats in line" Attorney Littlefield called attention to similar testimony giv- en by Cook in the Lorimer case and wanted to know if Cook was not refer firg to Hines attitude toward southern democrats and not toward Stephenson Cook declared Hines had referred to Ste phenson.
 1t is probable Hines will be called tc testify within a few days.
 Silas A. Towne, one of the three demo. cratic assemblymen who absented them selves when Stephenson was elected wa: called When he declared he could no remember in detail what he did after n'
 left the session, Senator Heyburn sub iected him to severe questioning.
 Do you mean to say you regarded the election of a senator such a trifle mat ter that you do not remember where yo' were at the time. As the suggestion o srifery was connected with your bein, absent did not you try to recall wlia ynn1 did in an effort to defsnd yoursAlf?
 Towife declared he did not consider tn bribery charges as worthy of denial. H will be examined further tomorrow.

Levy who is as- socated with Louis D. Brandeis as coun- sel for the independent tobocco associa- tionS
 At the conclusion of an all day session the following statement was made pub lie: "The attorneys general of Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina state that they have reached the conclusion of the dissolution proposed by the American Tobacco company is not a substantial compliance with the judgment of the supreme court of, the United States. and will offer no relief to the tobacco grow CTS of the country. That they are filing with the circuit an application to be al- lcwed to file written objections to the plan Of dissolution, and to, be heard orally at the hearing order by the court for october 30; that in their opinion if the plan of dissolution be adopted the victory of the government would be q barren one.'
 Tonight the southern attorney generals Lrcpared the petition to be filed in the cir- suit court tomorrow.

indicated, sl5cO,000. An objection was upheld. but Martin was finally permitted to say;
 During conversations had with Cum mins he told me something about S1500,- 900 scheme that he had made out of j. P. Morgans office, and that this fer tlllzer company, out of which he had made the money was the first big thing that Morgan had trusted DaVison with and consequently was Davison regretting his being outwitted.'
 Martin yesterday, who identified four checks made payable to the Carnegie Trust company which it is charged Cum mins made payable to himself, testified that he had never reported to the bank ing department the manner in which the money deposited by the Van Norden Trust company and the Nineteenth Ward bank was being held in trust, nor that it had been used to take up the notes given to the banks of the Carnegie Trust company as security for it.
 In defense of Cummins Martin said Cummins had saved the Van Norden Trust company from closing down In 1909 by raising money to purchase se- curities held by it which the banking department had said must be liquidated In thirty days.

 There has been a large exodus 70 shan ghai from these places. but reports of impending trouble are almost aii traceable to interested Chinese. The worst feature of the situation IS the s,rinrencv in money due to demand for silver for even the best paper.
 Several native banks in Shanghai have suspended payments.
 A loan of $3,000,000 in new currency of Ranking sent to the official banks here has partially relieved the situa- tion. but business Is at standstill and n crisis is threatened unless negotia- tions to avert 1t are begun by the bankers with the merchant guilds.
