WILLIAM G. FREEMAN.

NORMAN MACK, Chairman
of the Democratic National
Committee, gave the members
of the Sphinx Club something 70
think about at it's October meet
ing,
He made fine talk. He gave
his hearers a little INSIDR
HISTORY as to how political
campaigns are managed, and
said, among other things, that
in 1908, when he and his asso-
ciates were managing the Bryan
campaign, they received total
contribution from the people of
about $600,000, the greater part
of which was paid in to the
treasurer during the last three
weeks of the campaign.
Mr.. Mack said that out of
this large sum of money he had
spent in NEWSPAPER AND
AGAZINE ADV E R
TISING the sum of $40, 900, and
that this expenditure was about
THE ONLY EXPENDITURE
THAT GAVE HIM TANGIBLE

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.--Endless
political features were today attach
ed TO the suit To dissolve the steel
trust and the case jumped into the
forefront OF the already complicated
presidential campaign.
The Democrats claim credit for
forcing the administration to act

by the Stanley committee OF the

CHINESE DICTATOR TRIES !
TO CRUSH REVOLUTION
Government Gives Yuan Shi Kai
Supreme Power In Desperate
Effort To End Uprising.

PEKIN, Oct. 2S.-In the foreign
legations here grave doubt Is ex-
pressed that the eleventh hour ap-
pointment of Yuan Shi kai TO
practical dictatorship will be sufii-
cient to put an end TO the rebellion
that is sweeping over China.
There are many who do not be-
lieve that China's strong man really
will make determined efforts to
stamp out the rebellion II he can
gain anything for himself by foster
ing insurrection.
Then, too, the orderliness with
which the revolution has been
handled has impressed the Chinese
people favorably and should Hankow
fall In the approaching battle 1t is
believed no power can stop the spirit
of revolt.
That the imperial government re-
Allies the gravity Of the situation Is
shown by the dictatorship powers
imposed upon Yuan Shi Kai, after
he had once been degraded and
driven from court. Yuan Shf Kai Is
made an imperial minister and given
supreme command Of the army and
navy. All viceroys in the affected
districts are ordered to place them
selves under his command.
The new imperial minister left to-
day for Sin Yang Show to assume
direct control Of the military estab-
lishment. He Immediately issued
orders sending Gen. Yin Chang, the
minister of war, back to Pekin. Yin
Chang's inactivities have resulted In
casting suspicion upon him. Gen.
Feng Kuo Chang has been appointed
to take command of the imperial
forces already in the field while Gen.
Sin Jul will command the second
corps. now mobilizing. Both these
generals are staunch Supporters OF
Yuan Shi Kai.
All of Yuan Shi Kai's preliminary
steps indicate that he expects to
temporize with the rebels. Many be-
lieve he viii go even further and
make terms with them which viii
be more advantageous to himself
than to the Manchu- dynasty Yuan
Shi Kai notoriously hates the Man
chu rulers and the fact that he was
called upon to aid them was simply
their resort to last desperate meas
ures.
SHANGHAI, Oct. 28.-German war
ships here have picked up wireless
messages being sent from the i'm
perial forces at Hankow to the war
department in Pekin, declaring that
decisive battle has been fought near
Hankow, and that the rebels were
completely routed and driven across
the Han river with great loss.
No confirmation of these messages
has been received. The fact that they
came from the imperial commander
makes foreign residents here believe
they are greatly exaggerated.
According to the messages, the bat
tie ragged all of yesterday. The i'm
perial commander communicated with
Pellin tha. he attacked the rebels and
drove them from all their fortified
positions around Hankow. He declar-
ed the imperial forces were victorious
at every point, driving the rebels in
panic from their works and sending
them in rout back across the Han
river into Hangang.

ltlng the size OF families, the number OF
children to be IN proportion to the fam

argument, the audience being sobered by
the thought that feeble-mnded ssylums

Republican Activity

Our democratic friends, as voiced
by their newspaper organs, are evil
IDENTIFY distressed over the unmistak-
able signs of republican activity in
Nebraska in preparation for the COM
ing presidential campaign, as COM
pared with the lethargy upon the
democratic rank and file. Nebraska
republicans may disagree upon men
and measures, but they are alert and
wide-awake, while the democratic
forces are apparently apathetic, APP
parently waiting for orders from Mr.
Bryan or other would-be leaders.
Republican activity in Nebaska is
a good sign, betokening real interest
in maintaining republican ascen-
dancy in the state, and well waged
preliminary contest will do no harm
II only all concerned remember that
success at the polls depends on
eventual party solidarity, Nebraska
is normally republican by from TO-
900 to $4,000, but It is normally
republican on the basis OF united
party. II the anti-Taft element
should win out in the primary, they
would have to have the help of the
regulars afterwards to overcome the
democratic nominee, and likewise, II
the regulars prove to be in the ma
jority in the primary, they will want
the insurgents to stay with the ticket
and Withstand the Establishments OF
the democrats, sure to be repeated
In the same form as presented by
Mr.. Bryan in the late campaign.
Intelligent republicans, no matter
of what shade of opinion, should and
do realize that 1t is the democratic
play to promote dissension, and
breed trouble In the republican ranks
by every possiblestrick, but that in
these efforts the democrats are
wholly uneoneerned as to the out
come exeept'asit conduces to demo-
cratic success. and that they will
later DO uncompromisingly opposed
to the republican standard bearers,
no matter who they are.

Several swords have already been

A reconciliation will flow as fluently
from the first tiny spnrt OF blood as
II would from the carnage OF e bat

approved method of modern human

its rougher elements and partakes

noble name II seeks to vindicate.

Frauds in Imnorts.

Secretary MacVeagh's statement
that the Treasury department has
looked in vain for some line OF bust
ness within its Jurisdiction free
from importation frauds reveals a
serious condition and enables people
TO appreciate the task confronting
the government in it's effort to break
up smuggling, differentiation and
other phases OF this system OF fraud
as practiced at the ports OF entry
Il helps also TO show the splendid
work that has been done in this
connection by Collector Loeb at the
port OF New York.
But the secretary OF the treasury
eyinees no suggestion Of flinching
before the task. Instead, in ad.
dressing a body OF customs apprais-
ers he makes Il plain that the gov.
eminent is after these people with
the utmost determination. With
