BUTLER WEEKLY TIMES} Making Partisan Capital. 81, Louis ; J. D. ALLEN, Enrror. Ppa a ns Oe saeualiaii the naturalization frauds. Much of it has been ‘twisted by a partisan press to insinuate that the Demo- cratic organization has much to do with the perpetration of frauds in the Court of Appeals. Vague hints have been made that leaders of the party had knowledge of the frauds and fur- nished the means and men to carry them out. Those familiar with the situation know that, with the exception of two men—Morrow and Barrett—those concerned in the frauds were not known politically outelde of their own neighborhoods. The only two men who have been convicted are nat- uralized aliens, whoee chief alm seems to have been to secure patronage from the Democratic organization by showing an increased vote at the polls. Nathan Levin, formerly a Republi- can henchman and who received his schooling in naturalization work from the old Ziegenheim machine, and who was rewarded by a job from the Term.

' SARAH b SANDERSON, 50-4t Executrix, will be supported by the strongest public sentiment. The country is aroused as never before on the sut- ject. The grafter is no respecter of parties, offices or localities. Now he {a a democrat and now a republican. Whether in federal office, state office, eounty office or city office, he lines lis jacket whenever opportunity pre- sents itself. And in nearly every state the news in the past few years has told of his successtul operations. It is time to get @ line on him long enough to reach wherever he ma; wy to hide after exposure has made home too hot for him. The Tweed ring is still the Stand- ard of comparison in the matter of a graft. And yet Tweed and his cro- nies were amateurs when judged by later performers, and their atealings: appear small when later figures are examined. Their real distinction now lies in having helped themselves as liberally as possiblein a very bold fashion. Their tracks were poorly covered aud when the raid on them began the principal quality requisite for their undoing was courage. Fortu nately for the city, that quality characterized the men and the news- papers that made the fight against boy just as the man disappeared. Hedges was found apparently dead. After arriving here he showed signs of life, and, left in the station un- guarded, again became violent and ran down the streets. With stones he kept his pursuers at bay for a time, but was finally overpowered. Saves Two From Death. “Our little daughter had an almost fatal attack of whooping cough and bronchitis,” writes Mrs. W. K. Hav- iland, of Armonk, N. Y., “but, when all other remedies failed. we saved her life with Dr. King’s New Discov- ery. Our niece, who had consump- tion in an advanced stage, also used this wonderful medicine ad to day she is perfectly well.” Desperate throat and lung diseases yield to Dr. King’s New Discovery as to no other medicine on earth. Infallible for coughs and colds. 50c and $1. bot- tles guaranteed by H L Tucker, trial bottles free. Folk Will Get the Treaties, Washington, Oct. 10 —Johseph W. Folk, the circuit attorney of St. Louis, who has been in conference with the President, Secretary Hay, the Attorney General, Mr. Knox and others, regarding the extension of the provisions ofextradition treaties between the United States and for- eign countries, left to-day for St, Louis. He had a final conference with Secretary Hay, at which it was agreed that the negotiations for tke supplemental treaties should begin atonce. Extradition treaties may be negotiated not only with England and France, but with all other na- tions with which this country has treaty relations.
