POOR, PROSECUTED MAN.

It is with mingled tears and signs that
we view the sad case of certain poor
prosecuted citizen. Quiet, mild, in
offensive in all that he says and does
it is indeed too bad that for fifteen
years the villain has pursued him
harassing him by day, haunting his
troubled sleep at night, filling his
hours with bitterness, bankruptine
his business, holding the mirror up to
nature, and with relentless malice
driving him to the verge of emotion
al insanity.
The case is all the more sad and
inexjlicable because he has given nc
cause for Offense, seldom has he done
more than to call his prosecutor
liar, a thief and an undesirable citi
zen generally. Thus far he has re
Trained from attack upon the infan
member OF the prosecutors family
Such noble self-restraint deserves
DeLLeF 1dle.
Self-preservation is the first law o
naure and after fifteen years of un
relenting and unprovoked persecution
it is not to be wondered that the in
nocent victim should use every meth
cd of uncivilized warfare to obtain re
venge.
In our hearts we can have naugh'
but pity for this defenseless, desper
ate, deep-wronged man. AS We re
count the score of his agonies we can
not be surprised that he finds thai
"R-r-revenge is sweet" and that he
has vowed by all the Powers of the
Prince of Darkness that no one shall
escape.

LOSES CHICKENS,
Earnest Hulsebus, Southwest of Deni
son, Receives Visit from Chick
en- Thieves in Auto.

Mr.. Earnest Hulsebus, who lives on
farm five miles southwest of Den
ison, is in the city today comforting
with the authorities and trying to To-
cate two men who visited his farm on
Tuesday afternoon, and whom he
claims made away with some valuable
property. Mr.. Hulsebus was work
ing in the field yesterday afternoon
and his wife was away calling on
neighbors when Mr.. Hulsebus saw a
red automobile drive into his door.
yard. He thought that the men were
stock food agents and did not leave
the field, but later it was discovered
that the men must have made way
with number of chickens, some cloth
ing, an accordion and a watch.
The authorities are hot on the trail
of the men and it is thought that they
will be arrested before the day is
over. 1t was found out by Marshal
Burke that two men driving Brush
runabout sold number of chickens
to the Nicholson Produce company on
Tuesday afternoon, for which they
received $50. 1t is thought that
these are the same parties that Wis
tied at the Hulsebus home, for there
was a chicken coop on the rear of the
machine. This machien was in Audi,
bon Monday and was seen on the
streets of Denison late Tuesday after
noon. It is thought that these parties
are the same that have been commit,
ting a number of like depredations in
Carroll county for the past three
weeks. The machine is said to- be
without a license number.

The large barn belonging to P. T.
Finn, located in the rear of the Mer-
chants hotel, caught on fire Saturday
morning, and it was through the ef-
forts of John Schnoor and his clerks
that the building was saved. The lit
tie son of Mr.. Flynn was playing in
the barn shortly before the fire was
discovered and it is thought that it
was set on fire by the little fellow
while he was playing with matches.
It is indeed fortunate that the fire was
discovered before it made much head
way, as it would have resulted in a
much larger blaze on account of it's
nearness to many of the business
blocks.

A POOR LOSER.

Theodore Roosevelt is persistent
fighter, but a poor loser. He went
into the contest for president against
the Judgment of his best friends and
lost and now threatens to break up
the party whose candidate he sought
to become, because he was not able
to win the nomination. He shows a
want of party loyalty which does
not place him in an enviable
position. Other men of equal
caliber and merit have suffered
defeat for Office and have con-
cealed their chagrin and remained 10y
al to their party, but not SO with
Roosevelt.
If a party denies him the
leadership to which he aspires his
policy is to break it up and organize
a new party to serve his purposes.
What would have been thought of
General Grant if, after his defeat for
denomination for president he had
bolted and denounced the republican
party which refused him nomina-
ton for a third term? Why did not
James G.. Blaine seek to disrupt the
republican party and to establish a
new party when defeated in his polit-
ical ambitions?
We understand that Mr.. Roose-
welt claims he is fighting for
great principle; that he is what
is termed a progressive and the re-
publican party turned him down be-
cause it is less progressive than he
is and that the policies for which he
contends cannot be worked out in the
republican party. If it is principle
for which he stands and not a desire
to satisfy his appetite for office, why
did he not, when he found at the
Chicago convention that he was not
personally the choice of aiority
of the delegates in the convention,
consent to the nomination of some
other progressive like Sen. Cummins,
Gov. Hadley or Sen. BOrah- whose
far antedates that of
Roosevelt, and thereby save the re-
publican party from the danger of de-
feat? His answer when asked to
make this reasonabeI compromise was
that no compromise could be made
upon anyone but himself. There is
but one party to which he can prove
his loyalty and that is the party OF
Theodore Roosevelt. What the re-
suit of his bolt may prove can
not now be accurately estimated.
He has the financial support of the
millions of trusts and combinations
and while the favorite of the trusts
he at the same time has the conf
dence of large number of the peo-
pie who are against the trusts. 1t is
remarkable how this ingenious man
is able to hoodwink the common peo-
pie into believing that he is their
friend, while in truth his conduct is
such as to inspire the support OF the
International Harvester company, the
steel trust and other great combin1-
tions of capital. The double dealing
on his part will come out if the new
party is organized and the sources
of financial support will not be
concealed. When the people find that
in supporting Mr.. Roosevelt they are
but giving their support to the trusts
we predict that their ardor for the
new party and it's candidate will ex'
perience something of chill.
