New York, Oct 19-Former Police
Lieutenant Charles Becker's defense
to the charge of instigating the muir

at the behest of other gamblers, who

presenting his case to the jury, so de-
clared, adding that he would prove
Becker mot only not guilty but abso-

One of the chief witnesses was Jack
Sullivan, one of the co-defendants
with Becker, and he proved trou-

case against Becker WAS frame up.

"uARS LIKE HILLES"

Mccormick .Says They IncIte

Washington, Oct 10. 4 Medill Nc
Cormick, of Chicago, manager OF Colo

caused a sensation when he appeared
before the senate subcommittee inves
tigating campaign funds by the cpl
thets he hurled at Charles D. Hilles
the Republican national chairman.

with the pre-convention campaign OF
Colonel Roosevelt, were you not?" ask
ed Senator Clapp. 81 was" replied
Mccormick.
Then he plunged into the reading OF
his prepared statements, but had not
proceeded far when his invectives and
epithets aroused storm of protest
among the members of the committee.
"It is difficult for an ordinary man
in the compass of ordinary language
to combat with the testimony of char
acter assassins and liars like Mr..
Hilles-men who, by their falsehoods,
incite weak-minded men to actual as
sassination," was the passage which
brought out the protest from the COM

is a Progressive, joined.
"That reference has no place here, "
said Clapp, land will be expuhged
from the record"
Mccormick argued heatedly that his
statement was admissible as evidence,
while Senators Oliver and Clapp de-
clined to allow Mccormick to read and
demanded that he withdraw his words.
The statement finally was admitted to
the record without being read from
the prepared copy.
The reference to the attempt upon
Colonel Roosevelt's life was incidental
to McCormick's general statement OF
campaign expenses of the Progressive
party in Illinois. Substantially it was
as follows:

campaign in Illinois was betrayed by

U. 5. PLAN TO ABSORB
SANTO DOMINGO
II IS Said Marines Sent There
Will Stay.

Washington, Oct. 19.-It was learned
action of the administration in send
ing Brigadier General Frank Mcintyre
chief of the bureau of insular affairs
of the war department; William T. S
Doyle, chief of the Latin American
division of the state department, and
$50 marines to Santo Domingo, is the
beginning of the end of Santo Domin
go as republic.
The administration has plan for
all but annexing Santo Domingo. This
plan has been worked out by Score
tary of State Knox, Assistant Secre-
tary of State Wilson, General McIn.
tyre and Mr.. Doyle and the Dominican
minister, Francisco ]. Peynado.
The fact leaked out that the present
trouble in Santo Domingo is but part
of a scheme of political influences in
Santo Domingo, dissatisfied with the
present fiscal arrangements, to get
more money. This element, it Is as
serted, was not receiving enough of
the revenues set aside for the Domint
can government by the American su
pervisor of customs, so started the
revolution.
The next step on the part of the
state department was the working out
of a plan for the control of all the
affairs of the Dominican republic. The
original plans weer somewhat upset
by the revolution. But this temporary
setback later proved to be just the
thing needed for the starting of the
plan to absorb Santo Domingo into a
colonial possession. 1t was the land
ing of marines and the making of a
general investigation of Dominican af-
Airs by this government.
Of course, the matter will have to
be put up to congress, and if the latter
does not balk, authority will be pro-
cured for continuing the influence so
recently established.

BY WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN.
Solomon says that the borrower Is
servant unto the lender. II this ap-
plies to one who borrows ideas Mr..
Roosevelt does not recognize the obli-
CATION, for he has not only borrowed
from the Democratic party as few pub
lie men have borrowed from an oppos-
ing party, but he has shown himself
strangely grateful for the ideas TAX
en-. OF course it will not be contended
that an idea can be patented. 1t Is the
only thing. in fact, that is not subject
to monopoly.
Even Mr. Perkins, with all his fond
ness for the trust, would not contend
that monopoly in ideas could be
formed and made subject to regulation
by bureau appointed by the presi-
dent. Mr.. Roosevelt. however, has won
his popularity by the advocacy of
things previously advocated by the
Democrats. and still he Is all the while
assailing the Democrats bitterly and
has shown toward them hostility that
is hard to explain.
To show the extent of his borrowing.
let me enumerate some of the things
which he now advocates that were adj
vocated by the Democrats at an ear
lier date.
Shall the People Ruler
Take his paramount issue Of the
present campaign-namely. the rule OF
the people. The platform adopted by
the Democratic national convention at
Denver four years ago contained the
following:
"'Shall the people ruler is the over
whelming issue which manifests itself
in all the questions now under discus.
sion"
Here Is the very phrase which he
employs. and it is not only declared to
be an issue. but the overwhelming is
sue. 1t was dwelt upon by the candi-
dates and by other speakers during the
campaign, SO that Mr.. Roosevelt. then
president, may be assumed to have had
notice Of it. He not only refused to
admit then that it was the paramount
issue. but he displayed extraordinary
activity in urging upon the country
Mr.. Taft, whom he has since declared
to be the agent of bosses and the enc
my Of popular government.
1t would seem that he ought to make
some slight acknowledgment of his in
debtedness to the Democratic party for
suggesting this issue to him. At least,
he might put the issue in quotation
marks.
He is now advocating the direct cleo
ton of senators. but If he ever ex-
pressed himself in favor of this reform
earlier than two years ago the fact
has escaped my observation, and I have
not only watched carefully, but waited
anxiously, for some favorable express
sion from him.
Long Fight For Popular Election Of
Senators.
The Democratic party began the fight
for the popular election of senators
twenty years ago this summer, when
q Democratic house Of representatives
at Washington passed for the first time
resolution submitting the necessary
amendment. Since that time a similar
resolution has been passed nv the house

RepIv not to me with n fooI-born jest.
 -2 King Henry N.
Will Roosevelt Bolt?

Mir. Taft does not hesitate to say that MT. Roosevelt will bolt unless he be renominated at Chicago. The lat ter has declared that he will decline to abide by the decisions of the repub- lican national committee if it sees fit to reject the Roosevelt contests for seats in the convention. Fully 300 seats in the convention will be con- tested, or about one-third of the con- yention. If MT. Roosevelt means that his delegates must be seated, then he must mean he will bolt if they are not seated. This is indeed a situation. Unprecedented as the campaign has been the end of it at Chicago will be historic. "He might succeed" says the Philadelphia Inquirer, Taft pa per, ''in smashing the republican party, but he would go down under the wreckage and never emerge from it. ]"
 The republican campaign has filled the country with disgust, and it real ly does not matter much whether Roosevelt bolts or not. The national disgust is so deep and bitter that it can be cured only by constitutional amendment limiting the President to a single term of six years. A campaign of calumny has brought the country to this, and anything less than this would not restore the well nigh lost dignity and self respect of the coun- try.

The Business Situation

Weather conditions this week have been favorable to the growing crops and to late planting. Last week the nights were too cool for cotton's good, but with increasing heat we will soon have a temperature that will make the stalk grow at night as well as during the day.
 Crop conditions in the country at large are fairly satisfactory, and some branches of business are active as a result of the crop situation. But it would be unreasonable to expect pros perity to be in full swing until the presidential conventions meet and ad- journ.
 June, the convention month, will witness inertia in the business world. Large capital and large business will assume waiting attitude; but by the first of July there will probably be a marked revival in all lines of trade. And if the crop reports are at all favorable we will have a summer of great prosperity.

Ohio's Primary Vote

MT. Taft and Governor Harmon both reside in Cincinnati, and both are candidates in the presidential race. These two favorite sons seem at this writing to have been, to some extent, reflected in Ohio outside of their own city. Governor Harmon did far bet ter than MT. Taft, and under the unit rule he promises to gain the support of his state.
 Primaries are not conventions. Un- der the old system of conventions both Taft and Harmon would have been easy winners in Ohio. When the peo- pie act directly they act independently of all bosses and all machines. No one can dictate to an American voter at the ballot box's side.
 The primaries show how little rul- ing the majority of the voters have heretofore done in this country, and they also show how very much they will do hereafter. The convention plan which, with all it's known abuses, had stood from General Jackson's time down to the present day is to pass away altogether, and it's place is to be taken by primaries. This evo- lution in politics is primarily due to the failure of system that failed to reflect public sentiment.
 The vote in Ohio leaves at least MT. Taft in forlorn position. However, a prophet is not without honor save in his own country, and MT. Taft may remain in the race. Roosevelt lost his own state, although it is very true New York has no primary system of merit or value. Governor Harmon is weakened to some extent by the Ohio

As to Roosevelt

There Is quite a wide difference of opinion among people I meet as to whether Roosevelt will sweep the country next fall, or whether he will be inglorious- ly defeated" said John J. Norman of Chicago.
 s'I meet many Roosevelt men-many Roosevelt republicans. and some Roose- welt democrats l say Roosevelt demo- crats, because a number of persons with whom have talked claim to have always voted the democratic ticket, and yet they say they would be glad to see Roosevelt President again.
 "I have been a republican voter for some years, but I would rather see Taft reelected than to see Roosevelt with his Rough Rider tendency and his lack of ex- ecutive boise again in the White House. Roosevelt has an immense following among the people, and it is thinkable that te will be nominated at Chicago and erected in November. But I would be willing to bet that the democrats will win, provided they put up man known to the public as sane and conservative.
 'The Rooseveltites and the near Roose- veltites form a mighty host now, but l believe that before election day comes round a strong reaction will set in.
