The committee reports that on
October %, 1897, President Roose-
Welt issued a statement congratulate
ing Secretary Cortelyou and the
business men who headed off the
panic The committee says Of this:
up until the time or this inter-
view the Steel Cooperation owed its
success and its permanency to the
power and the skill of the tinanciers
who had created and the iron MAJ
ter who had directed is operations.
Since that time it's Gominace has

sudden, ill-considered, and arbitrary
nat of the chief executive. ..t ~
THE Presidents refusal to inter
fere was an absolute warrant to pro-
coed. A suggestion from him to the
Attorney General was equivalent to
la command; and upon a refusal OF
the Attorney General to act, the
corporation was immune. This is
admitted by Col. Roosevelt, and he
unhesitatingly assumes full re-
sponsibility in the matter"

No wonder Campaign Manager
Mckinley IS SO worried.

An interview given out recently
by William C. Redfield, Brooklyn
manufacturer, concerning his con-
vefsation with Gov. Wilson on the
tariff subject, will do much to dis
pell the free trade" gloom spread
by the Republican leaders. Gov.
Wilson, according to Mr.. Redfield. in
answer to a question, defnately
stated that he favored general
downward revision of the tariff A
gradual, downward revision of all
tariff schedules should tend to great
ly decrease the cost Of living High
tariff has been profitable for the
trusts only. This is one of the
reasons why the voters are going to
arise en- masse next November and
give the New Jersey candidate a
chance to overcome the damage done
by the Republican administration.

The fact that the people are going
to do some thinking this time, is go
ing TO more than offset the malicious
lies uttered by such politicians as
Representative Rodenberg. II the
East st. Louis congressman believes
that an appeal to class prejudice will
win Mr.. Taft's election, he is badly
mistaken All that Mr. Taft has
ever done In the last four years has
been OF far more benefit to the rich
than the poor, and all that Gov
Wilson has done since assuming gov
crnorship of New Jersey has favored
the masses. Who is the aristocrat?

Chief Egan's Stand.

Chief of Police Egan has taken q
commendabIe stand on the gambling
proposition. He declaims any per.
sonal knowledge of the general re-
sumption of gambling in Cairo and
declares that If any Of the games
have been granted police protection,
it has been without his knowledge.
"If find that any policeman knew
the games were in progress on their
beats, they will be dismissed from
the force" Chief Egan declared.
The return Of the sure thing"
men will not be tolerated by the pub
lie. Gambling is bad in any form,
but it is a thousand times worse
when strong arm methods are ap-
piled to deprive victims of their
money, Time was when the gamb-
lers sent men abroad TO pick up
.'easymarks" headed for Cairo and
lead them to the crooked agnes
This will not go any more Chief
Egan knows this as we'll as anyone
The Bulletin has not taken
"sides" in the present gambling eX-
pose. All OF the developments have
been brought to light by one side or
the other. The Bulletin has ven
tured no opinions, because it is Oh
vious that opinions would not tend
to further straighten the matter in
the public mind
There has been gambling in Cairo
This is indisputable. The Bulletin
has no direct evidence to prove that
the games were run under nrotec-
tion, but the circumstances indicate
that games in which professionals
play for high stakes could not exist
without some member Of the Police
Department having knowledge of
them. The Bulletin heartily favors
Che stand taken by Chief Egan. If
any member of the Police Depart
ment had knowledge of the games
and failed to make any effort to close
them, action should be taken at
once on the part Of the proper au-
thorities in disrnissine such offend
ers from the force.

The wintry weather that has prevailed
through this section ever since the be-

day morning the thermometer registered
one degree below zero, but yesterday it
got bit warmer when the wind veered
around and came from the south. This
winter is record breaker for int .iSitY
of the cold and the continuance OF freez-
ing weather. All over the country it has
been hard winter. The Potomac river
is frozen almost the entire distance from
its source to its mouth, and boats have a
hard struggle getting from Norfolk to
Washington. The Chesapeake bay is
also frozen up, and navigation between
Baltimore and the Virginia capes is prac-
tcally closed, only a few of the heaviest
steamers being able to force their way
through the ice at irregular intervals.
Hundreds OF small vessels are ice-bound.
