WANTED—A CARPENTER. —Chicago Journal. THE TRUSTS AND HEARST. When It Comes to Using the Check Book the Yellow Peril to the Democracy Isn't In It. • Some of the anti-Hearst democrats are appealing to the republicans to help defeat the New York editor for the St. Louis nomination. They in dulge in strong language, and declare that his candidacy deserves rebuke, ir respective of party. Everybody, it is stated, should take alarm at such methods of campaigning', and especial ly for the highest office within the people's gift. This appeal, says the Washington Star, is robbed of all force and made riuite ridiculous by the attitude of the trusts. Mr. Hearst is a very rich man. a lavish spender, and is very anxious to be president. But his pile is small when compared with the combined piles of those trust magnates, who just now are figuring industriously on con trolling the St. Louis convention. Tlie'y have dollars to his cents, and they are putting up quite liberally. In the well accredited gossip of the day, there is almost an open offer to the effect that if the democratic party will make its nomination in accordance with the trust wishes and interests its cam paign fund shall be the largest on record, and sufficient for every pur pose. Mr. Cleveland is preferred. As there is an auction on as to St. Louis, therefore, why should the re publicans take sides? They will do well to keep out of it and await, the result with conlposure. They will have •enough to do afterward in their cam paign against the highest bidder. If Mr. Hearst outbids the trusts he will prove a very active antagonist, and if the nomination is knocked down to the trusts they will move heaven and earth in their effort to land their man. The republicans should not exercise themselves at all until the common en emy presents himself. For a time Mr. Hearst seemed fo hold the record for audacity in the political world. No man before him had played the game quite so frankly or joyously on such But with in the past six months the trusts have done some business themselves, and shown that if the way to the white house can be opened by a check book, they are prepared and disposed to per form the work. If they win at Si. Louis Mr. Hearst will have made them pay for the prize, and if he wins they will have made him pay a pretty penny for his whistle. .POINTS AND PARAGRAPHS. K?The digging of the Panama canal will furnish another ditch into which the democratic party can fail —hard.— Cincinnati Commercial Tribune. ■Sty It would be something pathetic to find Mr. Bryan at the St. Louis conven tion looking up some delegate from his own or another state for a ticket of ad mission. It would be something appeal ing to syrfipathy to see him a minori'.y delegate from Nebraska rising in his humble place to hold aloft the tattered banner of a lost cause. But in Nebraska, .as everywhere, cruelty is the rule of poli tics. If men will not adjust themselves to the conditions of their time they will find conditions nevertheless inexorable. If they will not sidestep before the great -v-neels that go round and round they will he cast down and ground in the dust. — Sioux City Journal. a democrat with little knowledge of politics and no knowledge of the man.it is charitable to presume, declares for Hearst for president— which is equivalent to declaring for the disgraceful defeat if not the destruction of thn democratic party.—Nashville American. cy"lleorganization," shouts Mr. Bry an, "means Clevelandism."

Advantages Accruing to the United States Through Possession of the Islands. Gen. James H. Wilson undoubtedly expressed a widespread view when he declared in the discussion on the Kus so-Japanese war before the American Academy of Political and Social Sci ence that the Philippines conferred no substantive advantage on the United States. This view fails to consider all the conditions, says the Philadelphia Press. The Philippines yield no reve nue. They furnish the United States no military forces. They add instead to the points which demand defense and a garrison, an army and a fleet. But this army and this fleet give the United States its entire position in the east. In 1900 the United Slates en joyed its weighty authority at Peking because it was nearest to the scene ol disturbance, had 60,000 seasoned men on whom it could draw, and, next tc Japan, was the first power to be readj with a brigade in the march on the . Chinese capital. Thanks to the Phil ippines and our interests there, out navy in the Pacific is to-day the larg est save that of England. What did we have on the Pacific coast of Asia when war was las! declared there is 1895-0? The Monocaey, a side-wheel er, and one or two cruisers. To-daj our battleships and cruisers fall jusl short of England's. As M. Delcasse said in the French chamber of deputies when taken to account for the small French Pacific fleet, France eoukl riof think of rivaling or equaling the naval force of the United States on the easl coast of Asia, since the United States had to-day larger interests on the Asi atic Pacific coast than any othei power. These interests are conferred by the possession of the Philippines. They would not exist otherwise. They may I seem small and of no substantive ad vantage to Gen. Wilso.n. They do not i thus appear to an astute and expert ] enced French diplomatist and states man like M. Delcasse, the French min ister of foreign affairs, lie sees that j Secretary Hay speaks with authority in Chinese affairs because of these in terests, and would be no stronger than i his predecessors without them. The Philippines give the United j States standing in Asiatic affairs. They I give those who direct our policy and S speak in our diplomacy the weight and backing of an army and navy nearet the scene of action than any other forte directed by any great neutral power. On these things influence an'! i authority rest. With them the United States is a power in east Asiatic in terests. Without them it would be but one of the great powers, with nc special authority to speak and with nr force at hand to give its autHority ut terance, and policy weight. irrThe Hearst-Bryan merger ought tc be considered a wicked enough trust tc attract the attention of hysterical demo crats who want to earn a reputation as trust busters.—Philadelphia Press. ay If one of the democratic presiden tial candidates is willing lo give a mil lion dollars or more for the nomination, as reported, they ought to let him have it. It isn't worth the money, and nobody is likely to make a higher bid.—Phila delphia Press. c '"The manner in which the Grover Cleveland blaze starts up after it seems to have been quenched makes one be lieve that somebody is slipping around with kerosene and matches. —St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

April 8.— I The census bureau yesterday issued u bulletin which gives the estimated population of the United States for I'JOU, exclu sive of Alaska and the insular pos sessions of the I'uited Slates, at 7!t,- 900..'j59. This is an increase of 11,005,- Sl4 since the census of HUM). The population is estiuiate.d for 4:is cities having 10,000 or mors inhabitants in in luno. According to these estimates New York is now a city of 3,716,1119 in habitants; Chicago is rapidly ap proaching the 2,000.000 mark, having 1,873,550 inhabitants; Philadelphia has 1,370,710; St. Louis has just, pass ed and I'oston has almost reached the 0041,000 mark; llultimore has 531,- 313; Cleveland is now a considerable | distance ahead of Cincinnati, which cities have 414,950 and 332,934 respec tively. Buffalo also has considerably j increased its population, being credit ed with 381,403 inhabitants. San I Francisco and Pittsburg are close I competitors, the former having 355,- | 919 and the latter 345,043. Detroit, .Milwaukee and New Orleans have just passed 300,000 and Washington is | close to that figure. In the number of towns and cities having over 10,000 inhabitants, Mass j aehusetts is in the lead with 47, con ■ taining a total of 2,197,700 inhabi- I tants, but this total of urban popn- I lation of course is not as large as j that of JVCV. York, Pennsylvania and Illinois. Considered by states. New York leads in population, with more than 7,500,000, Pennsylvania exceeds 6,- 500,000 and Illinois has passed 5,000,. j !M)0. Texas has over 3,000,000, hav ing passed .Missouri. But 22 states now have less than 1,000,000 inhabi tants and 14 exceed 2,000.000. The estimates are made in a bulle tin giving estimates of population in 1901, 1902 and 1903 for all cities of 10,- DOO inhabitants or more in the t'nited States. The same cities between IS9O and 1900 increased in population over 32 per cent. Part of the increase during the three years is due to the inclu sion of suburbs. The estimated pop ulation in 1903 in cities of 10,000 or more is distributed as follows: The North Atlantic states, iss cities, 12,81 5,990; north central divis ion. 140 cities, 8,272,105; South At lantic, 38 cities, 1,84-1,215; south cen tral, 37 cities, 1,530,855, and western states, 20 cities, 1,343,822. The following are the estimates of I the population in 1903 of Ohio cities | having 25,000 and upwards: Akron ! 47,833, Canton 32,011, Cincinnati 332,- 934, Cleveland 414,950, Columbus 135,- | 4>7, Dayton 92,500, Hamilton 25,819, i Lima 25.415, Springfield 40.101, Tolc lo 145.001, Youngs town 48,386. KANSAS DEMOCRATS. Iloai'kt antl Itryaii I l>> 'l'liein in State foil vent ion. Wichita, Kan., April B.—The demo cratic state convention yesterday sleeted 20 uninstructed delegates to | the national convention. The delega i tion, according to personal prefer \ enees, will stand six for Hearst and I 14 against him, it is said. | The platform, which was unani mously adopted, endorsed the Kan sas City platform of 1900 and the Chi cago platform of 1890, expressed con- I tidence in William .1, Bryan, and de clared for the nomination of men for president and vice president who sup ported the tickets of IS9O and 1900 and who were in sympathy with the platform upon which they ran. The Hearst plank, which some of | Mr. Hearst's followers claim as an en -5 dorsement of his candidacy, follows? "In Win. K. Hearst, of New York, we recognize one of the foremost democrats of the nation. He uses his great opportunities and power in all eases in behalf of the common people, without counting the cost to himself. SIDETRACKED. ! Tile Hill IM Helcrred to Secretary t ortelyou.
