are matters OF the greatest importance
TO every newspaper editor and pub
Usher in this state, and to every citi-
zen of the state.
1t is not a personal matter in which
Mr.. Ogden is alone interested. 1t Is
a question Of whether or not the
twenty million dollar nonresident cor
poration. like the Manufacturers

can stife and destroy the freedom
OF the press. the palladium and bu!,
wark OF our liberties?
Many OF Mr.. Osden's friends will
lend him their support in this cause

that his strongest supporters AMI
irmest sympathizers will be the great
majority OF the people OF the state
with whom he has no personal
acquaintance.

Russia some 400 miles east OF Moscow,
says that upwards Of 100 lives have
been lost in the collapse Of a river pier
at one of the local pleasure gardens.
The last steamer returning TO this
city was scheduled to leave the island
garden at midnight. A crowd Of holi.
day makers. men, women and children,
were forcing their way In the darkness
to the boat over the fiImsy pier when
the structure collapsed under their
weight and virtually everybody was
thrown into the water The crew OF
the steamer did their best TO rescue
the victims, but only a few were saved.
