II cost Perry Weinberg 800 word to
say "I'll get even with YOU" when ar
raigned before Judge Martin at Paterson,
N. J.. a few days ago. The court had
sentenced him for stealing $40 from Leo
Potter, his employer, to not more than
three years and not less than Is months
in prison. AS Weinberg was being led
away he turned upon Potter and made
the little speech about "getting even"

court, and now in addition to your States
prison sentence | will impose fine of
81 600 in your case" The fine will keep
Weinberg in prison for 1000 days longer,
if he works it out at the rate of a dollar a
day.

A SENSATION was created in Baltimore
and the surrounding country the first OF
the week by TIE arrest of four or five men
for the lynching OF negro six or seven
months ago at suburban village. Gov
ernor Goldsborough has had Burns de-
tectives on the case for long time, and
although the expense has been enormous,
they accomplished their purpose and have
landed some of the guilty in jail-with
more to follow.
The licensed whiskey saloon is respon-
sible for the tragedy. The lynching
conspiracy was Matched out in saloon,
and when the detectives were finally ready
to gather in their prisoners they found
them loafing in a saloon. Murder and
misery are bred by the saloon day in and
day out, and yet these places are licensed
by civilized communities. As to the fl
nancial side of it, ahundred years license
money would not pay the expenses Of
this one case.

LAST Thursday President Taft was for
mally notified of his nomination by a CON-
mittee appointed for that purpose, the
ceremony taking place at the White House
in Washington. The President made a
long speech in reply. which was an obsti-
nate defense Of the policies that have
been so utterly repudiated by the people
Of the country, Republicans as we'll as
Democrats, and he reiterated his determi-
nation to stand pat on the antiquated
platform OF the reactionarieS. He declar-
ed his opposition to progressive methods
and measures, and defied Wilson and
Roosevelt and all their followers. Such
narowneSs of spirit, such utter lack OF
appreciation Of conditions, shows how
entirely out OF sympathy the President is
with the people and how unfit he is to be
President of the United States.
He ought to have no further opportunity
to obstruct the progressive movements Of
the present day-and he won'tl

THE convention OF the Bull Moose
party in Chicago this week is an inter-
esting feature Of American politics. II is
composed for the most part of really pa
triotic men who have high ideals and who
are genuinely in earnest in their opposi-
ton to the politicians who control the
Republican party at the present time and
the methods they pursue. In so far as
this convention is a protest against the
corruption and danger of rotten politi-
cal organization, it will serve most use
ful purpose. But as practical necessity
there is no real demand for third ticket,
for the very good reason that in the nom
nation of Woodrow Wilson and the
adoption of the platform on which he
stands the Democrats have amply pro-
vided the means for the greatly desired
political and governmental regeneration
demanded by the people.

ACCORDING to programme, 1.-The Pro-
eressive Party" was formally launched
at Chicago yesterday, when Theodore
Roosevelt, OF New York, was nominated
for President, and Governor Hiram W.
Johnson, of California, was named fol
ice-President. The convention was
composed almost entirely OF Roosevelt
Republicans, and was dominated alto
gether by Col. Roosevelt. There was
not roll-call on any question. every
thing being settled according to the de-
sire of Roosevelt, his choice for Vice
President even being named without
contest. The platform is radical, or pro-
gressive, to an extreme degree, and goe:
beyond the most far-fetched ideas OF any
other political party.
Roosevelt is the whole show in the
new party. He undertakes the leader
ship with the utmost confidence, but i

at Brooklyn, near Baltimore, on the charge
Of assisting in the lynching of King John

near that place, and in the evening mob
surrounded the Jail and secured the man

made for the men, but the officers were
unable to make an arrest until last night.

AFTER all, changes come swiftly when
the tide once sets in. Two or three years
ago the United States Senate was the
impregnable bulwark OF the trusts and
combinations, and no measure could pass
that was Objectionable TO them. Now
only few feeble bosses remain, such as
Penrose and Crane, and the Democrats
and progressives control the situation
The one object now standing between
the trusts and justice is President Taft
their last and only hope-and he will moi
be there this time next year.

Rooseveks new party is going to be |
One of its principal promoters and the
national committeeman from New York
is George W. Perkins, the head of the
great Harvester Trust and right-hand man

Perkins is the man who is financing the
new party, and we have no doubt that
the trusts he represents have full I'M
Outstanding with Col. Roosevelt. Men
of this sort are not in politics for pure
patriotism, and they are not spending
their money without hope OF reward.
Elect Roosevelt, and you put Perkins

The President has made known his in
tention OF vetoing the tariff revision meas
ures passed by the coalition OF Democrats
and progressive Republicans in Congress,
even before he has read the bills. This
shows how absolutely he is dominated
by the corporations and their political
advisers-how thoroughly out of sympa-
thy he is with the people who so earnest
ly demand relief from tariff iniquities.
We doubt if President Taft will carry
one State next November-we are quite
sure that he ought not TO do so.

The Beef Trusts still boosting the price
OF all sorts of fresh meat, and the people
OF this country are actually paying more
now than meat costs in England, where
practically all OF il is imported. Indeed,
the Beef Trust is said TO sell meat cheap
er in foreign countries than in this-which
makes the extortion all the more exasper-
ating.
The boldness OF the Beef Trust shows
how little il fears President TAFT or Re-
publican administration.

Unique in the history of railroading are
the tremendous trains that have within
the past week been made up on the Lehigh
Valley Railroad. A short time ago train
of lis cars of coal bound for Bethlehem
Steel Works created wonderment. Since
then the trains have constantly been grow
ing larger. Last Friday a new record
was made when train OF 1873 coal cars
moved westward from the Perth Amooy
docks for the Mahoning yards, where
they were distributed to the mines. The
train was 1000 feet. long or more than a
mile and quarter, and was drawn by
two locomotives, third pushing. 1t is
said the trains are so enormous because
trainmen are scarce.
