The Record’s charge that Mr. Ward, Democratic nominee for township collector, had worked for Clark Wix, was made to discredit Mr. Ward with Democratic voters. It shows every Democrat who should so far forget his party obligations as to vote for 5 a Republican, what he could expect from that source if he should after- wards become a candidate on the Democratic ticket. In this particular instance the Record overshot its mark. Mr. Ward authorizes us to say that the report that he worked for Clark Wix or voted for him is without foundation, a pure fabricc- tion manufactured from whole cloth, That he has been a Democrat all his ‘Whureday, will be sent to any address | tration last year selected to present LITTLEFIELD’S LIST OF 800 TRUSTS | It will be difficult for the Republi- a | Consumption | cans to run away from the trust is- | sue in future, or to deny, as did | Senator Hanna in 1900, that there |areany trusts.

As the total wealth of this country is about $90,000,000,000 and as about two-thirds of all is in real estate and improvements, and farm animals, implements and products, it is evident that the trusts have near- ly completed their work, so far asthe manufacturing and the natural mon- oly industries are concerned.

UNION BANK ROBBERS ARRESTED’ | Rudolph and Lewis @aptured io Hart- ford, Conn., After a Desperate Struggle With Asst, Supt. of “New York Pinkerton Agency. Hartford, Conn., March 2—William ° Rudolph and George Collins, alias Black Frank, alias Frank Lewis, the Union bank robbers and murderers of detective Charles J. Schumacher of St. Louis, were arrested here to- day at the muzzle of a revolver alter a desperate fight with Asst. Supt. George 8S. Dougherty of the New York Plokerton office, and Garrett Farrell, seargeant of the Hartford police de- partment. When their rooms were searched, $8,685 in bills in gold was found. The money was taken in charge by the police, and will be held for identifica- tion by representatives of the looted bank at Union, Mo. HISTORY OF THE CRIME AND PURSUIT. December 26, 1902, William Ru- dolpt and Frank Lewis, alias George Collins, robbed the Union, (Mo.) bank of valuable papers and cash, esti- mated to total $114,000, about $15,000 being in gold, silver and bills. They terrorized the citizens by fus- illade of shots while they blew the safe with nitro-glycerine, The case was put in the hands of the Pinkertons, who asgigned Chas. J. Schumacher to thecase. He trail- ed Rudolph to his parents’ home, near Stanton, Mo.,in the guise of a hunter, but was spotted, ‘ January 24, in leading a posse to capture the robbe:s, Schumacher was shot and killed by Rudolph and Lowis, : The criminals fled and were traced through the hills of the southeast | eee 2 2 ee ee ee ee ee ee ee EEE page after they must turn to the farme, i and $1; all druggists, the water and the air, if the truste wish “new worlds to conquer.” thechariot wheels of the conqueror— We now understand why the cost of living ie going up and is greater than ever before at this season of the some way befitting the service of this statesman in the twenty-four years of official life in Washington, should be acted upon.

Childs, the f. ‘paper that has regularly ‘supported ee the republican party in these words: “Tf the republican majority of con- ‘ gress were at all sincere in its pre- tended efforts to curb or destroy the trust evil it would go directly to the i point by repealing the truet-breeding ‘trust-fostering and trust-sustaining Dingley duties, which alone support the predatory truste in their nefari- ous activity. But the republican majority is not sincere: it is juggling with the matter; ithasno purpose to interfere with the trusts. Its only object, judging from its ‘conserva- tive’ action, isto try te induce the ‘ country to believe it intends to do something which itdoes not mean to do. There is no trust bill before con- which is not & transparent fraud and sham.” No democratic . . paper has gone farther than this in ” the arraignment of the republican party on the trust question.—The supinely as we do—will be hopelessly bonded and compelled to pay tribute to the trusts which will own all on, above and below the surface of the earth, We do not need a field glass to see that Littlefield’s 800 trusts hang like an ominous cloud on our polit- ical and industrial horizon. Cuas. A. Epwarps, Washington Post on Houses Despotic Act. Washington, Feb. 28.—Discussing the ousting of Representative Butler, the Washington Post, an independ- ent paper, says to-day;———____ “We think that every honest and unbiased person will sympathize with the indignation of the House Democrats over the despotic, not to say brutal, manner in which the Re- publican party have disregarded de- cency and justice in the case of the Butler-Wagoner contest. Thesecon- tests have always been more or less sorrowful and scandalous, and the Post has invariably protested against them, no matter what form they took. But in this instance ev- ery evil possibility has been brought into an unlovely prominence. “Mr. Butler was elected to the Fif- ty-seventh Congress from the Twelfth District of Missouri. He came to Washington with all the legal and proper credentials. And thatshould have been enough. If his adversary had, or though he had, legitimate grounds for a challenge, he should have submitted his case to the local courts, where all the facts were ac- cessible and where credible witnesses were easily within reach, “Instead of that he appealed toa partisan tribunal 1,206 miles distant and invoked, not a competent and informed verdict, but the irresponsi- ble tyrgnny of mere force. Theman- ner in which Mr, Butler's case has these things recall the days and prac- tises of the Goths, the Vandals and the Huns far more than they suggest the regime of modern cultivation. “We take no special interest in Mr. Rutler personally. In our philosophy his case constitutes merely au ab stract proposition in morals. But the fact that he had been deprived of his rights without the smallest refer ence to law and honorable observ- ance isa fact with which men, with- out regard to party feeling or align- ment, may well concern themeelves. “The House has been made to de clare that he was defeated at the polls—not as the result of proof or of judicial and dispassionate inquiry, but by force of partisan rulings by the Chair and in the absence of the quorum required -for the legitimate disposal of such yuestions. “That the Democratic minority resents this action with bitterness is quite intelligiblg; that they let their resentment take shape of indiscrimi nate obstruction is at least human. A flagrant wrong has been commit ted and the Republicans cannot rea sonably object to a harvest of their own sowing and cultivation. “We find in this incident fresh cor- roboration of our claim thatelecti contests should never be referred to Congress, where the tribunal 1s al- ways partisan and conscienceless, but submitted to the local courts, where at least the material for a just decision is easily at hand. “We have had too many of these scandals and this last seems to be the worst of all.” EXTRA SESSION OF THE SENATE. President Roosevelt issued a pro- clamation Monday calling an extra session of the Senate for March 5. The President’s idea in calling an extra session at this time is toafford an opportunity for_newly elected senators to report in Washington by the date set, March 5. Although the purposes are not set forth in detail, the object is the ratification of the Panama canal and the Cuban reci- procity treaties.
