Washington, Sept. 10.—senator Pettus, of Alabama, who is 82 \ ears old, has declared himself a eandidate for re-election.

The New York Herald says that by forcing the trust into the first place among the debatable ques- tions President Roosevelt has mor- tally offended J. P.*Morgan and Thomas C. Platt. They have sought both by persuasion and threats to jdissuade him from advocating the control of trusts by federal legisla- tion, stand thatif he persists in telling the people that trusts can be made subservient to law he will | fight to succeed himself to the presi- issue dency in 1904. They are determined | at the outset to prevent the New York state convention from giving |dency accorded him by the conven- tions of California, Missouri, sylvania, Iowa and Delaware, and the platform to be adopted will pass over «he trust question with a few generalities and leave him to fight the battle alone, As we said edito- rially before, it is hard for even a Presideut to combat the -mwachinery of the party to which he owes his election. Itis-but natural for the other party to be suspicious of him and to take advantage of his work when itis to its interest, but make no effort to help him win his’ fight, Jo fact, it could not ifit would, The machinery of the republican party is unquestionably controlled by men who benefit by the trusts and itis equally true that trusts have fur- Penn- nisted the money for republican campaigns, That, infaet, trusts are the offsprings of laws enacted through the republican party. The party not desert the trust, because they would be injur- ing their own interests, Therefore it follows that if Mr, Roose- velt adheres to his present course he ean expect no support from those who control the parvy machinery, 1 Ter hand, a determined, fearless and aggressive president, as Mr, Roosevelt has so far prove him- self to be, with the unlimited patron- age at his command, cau wield great leaders can business we O friends and supporters to ottices un- der a Republiomn administration.

As for home rule for cities Johhson points to himself as an example Cleveland’s city goverment wes ripped and mangled so in order to tie Johnson's that the su preme court finally declared all class legislation void and this knocked out the charters of every city aud village in the state. Now the state legislature is trying: to repair the ruin it has wrought, and Johnson has tried to put Hau- na on the defensive by deelaring that hands this isa good time to give all cities and towns complete autonomy and home rule.

L. ‘Tucker. Bryan and the Great Issues. The Greene County (Pa.) Demo- erat: contains the following: “Mr. Bryan very truthfully states that the democrats have been defeated more times on the tariff issue than any other; yet that does not make their intention wrong or say¢that the democrats should back away fromm their position. Democracy is right on the tariff issue as ou other issues, aud because defeat has come to it does not prove that it has been wrong. Majorities are often wrong. Had a vote been taken on board of Columbus’ fleet of three vessels, the day or week before the new world was discovered their prows would have been turned homeward and the undertaking would hi v» ended in failure instead of success. Honest reader, look at the matter squarely. If there had been an open, fair, free election and Bryan had been twice defeated, would that have proved him wrong or the platform on which he stood? But was he defeated that way? Was not bribery and coercion used? Did not the managers of great manufacturing concecus compel their, employes to vote against Bryan? Hus Bryan ever beeu defeated by the free, untraimwelled gote of this na tion? Truthful answers to the above questions ought tu convince any one.” To Cure a Cold in One Day take Laxative Hromo-Quinine Tab lets. All druggists refund the money if it fails to cure. E. W.
