CHIEF SANDERS
IS ENROUTE TO
TORONTO. CAN.
LEFT ON 10 O'CLOCK TRAIN LAST
NIGHT, BUT WILL STOP OVER
IN CHICAGO TO SPEND FOURTH
BEFORE GOING TO NATIONAL
CONVENTION OF POLICE CHIEFS

Chief of Police Sanders left last
night at 10 o'clock for Chicago, where
he will spend the Fourth before going
to Toronto, Canada, where he will at
tend the convention of the National
Association of Chiefs of Police.
The convention in Toronto opens on
the 9Th and will be in session three
days. Chief Sanders will come direct
ly from the convention and expects
to reach here about the 18th.
The expenses of the chief of police
to this convention are paid by the
city, the aldermen believing that the
chief derives enough benefit from at
tending these gatherings to justify the
expense on the part of the city.
Chiefs Sanders anticipates a great
time on this trip, as he has been a
member of the association for several
years and has attended a number of
the annual conventions and is ac-
quainted with a majority of the po-
lice chiefs of the principal cities in the
United States.

We have been asked 80 often re,
Gently by strangers coming to our

make it circulate all around this
city for over a hundred miles where
there is no local daily newspaper.
There is no use in discussing the

results OF the election, Prof Albert
Bushnell Hart so far ignores those
results as to say:
The fact is that the progressives,
so far from being socialists, are the
great barrier to the growth of that
socialist party which aims to control
the country
The professors theory is attractive.
And If party can be so nearly So

work, according to his view But,

before the Baltimore convention that
ambition was stronger in Bryan than
love Of country. The bulk of the
people knew that ambition in Bryan
IS small compared with his consum-

There never was day when Bry~

PROCLAMATION.

PRp0bih NATION.
Colonel Roosevelt mas issued a
Thanksgiving proclamation to his FOL
overs. He congratulates them upon
the progress made by the progress
i've party and encorages them to face
the future with hope and confidence.
Good. The democratic party can sin
cerely felicitate the progressive re-
publicans upon the strength which
they have manifested surprising
strength, all things considered and
it can bid them Godspeed in the pro-
secution of lneir work. The demo
cratic party is progressive and is en-
titled, as democrats believe, to lead
the progressive forces of the nation.
But rivalry will no. hurL. The more
active and energetic the progressive
republicans are, the greater will be
their influence In compelling the de-
mocrats to be steadfast in their pro-
gressive course. Time will tell
whether the new party is needed. At
present there does not seem to be any
necessity for it but the question can
not, of course be determined by a
few No harm can come from the adj
vocacy Of measures in tine interest of
the people, whether they be advocat-
ed by old parties or new. Let the
fight go on; let the public be enlight-
ened. The right is always triumph
ant at last; and those will have per
manent influence who unselfishly es-
pouse a righteous cause. Common
