What the Round Cotton Bale Tract

-/ jienda Upon Whose Ox ia Gored.
Senator J. K. Jones, Chairman of
the Democratic National Committee,
is a defendant in a proceeding brought
under the Anti-Trust law of Texas,
lie has company in his trouble.
John E. Searles, w>ll known in
Wall street as one of the biggest
"trust magnates," is a co-defendant.
The Texans have placed these two
gentlemen under fire because they are
the heaviest stockholders in a concern
known as the American Cotton Com
pany. John E. Searles is President
of the organization.
The Chairman of the Democratic
National Committee says his company
is but a "large business concern," but
the Texans—and Texas is a Democra
tic State—think differently. It is
charged that the Jones-Searles combi
nation constitutes a conspiracy
against lawful trade and free compe
tition.
The American Cotton Company Is a
monopoly if there ever was one. Not
only is it entrenched behind $7,000,000
capital stock, but it is fortified by
patents which exclude the possibility
of competition.
Nicoll's Stock Exchange Handbook,
a recognized authority, says:
"The American Cotton Company is
a corporation which controls the pat
ents for machinery and processes in
making round lap bales."
"Controls"—that word itself is sug
gestive of the "Octopus." It is the
word over which Mr. Bryan fumed in
his St. Louis denunciation of trusts.
Every cotton ginning plant in the
South must have one of the machines
manufactured by the American Cotton
dompany. They save time and money.
The cotton ginner must make his ar
rangements with the Jones-Searles
combination. It has exclusive posses
sion of the field. The ginner must
come to the terms of the combination,
lie can deal no place else. He cannot
even bur independence from this
?t,000,000 combination.
The American Cotton Company re
fuses to sell its product. It leases its
machines. The manufacturer attaches
one to his plant and yearly pays trib
ute to the American Cotton Company.
So great are the profits of this combi
nation that in the short time the con
cern has been in existence Senator
Jones is said to have risen from the
estate of a comparatively poor man
until he is now regarded as a million
aire. And the Southern ginners con
tinue to swell the bank account of the
Democratic campaign manager.
William Jennings Bryan in liis de
nunciation of trusts at St. Louis gave
a list of the great corporations of the
country. But he left out the Ameri
can Cotton Company and the Ameri
can Ice Company. The others he de
nounced. But these two great Demo
cratic organizations lie ignored. He
exclaimed:
"Those who attempt to divide pri
vate monopolies iuto good monopolies
and bad monopolies will never make
any progress toward the overthrow of
trusts."
Therefore Mr. Bryan will not suc
ceed as a trust smasher.
Even in making his division in mo
nopolies Mr. Bryan showed strong
discrimination. He specified such con
cerns as the Federal Steel Company.
Yet this combination is only one of
several iron and steel companies in
the country. No one is forced to do
business with the Federal Steel. There
are the American Steel and Wire Com
pany. the Republic Iron and Steel
Company, the National Steel Com
pany, the Carnegie Steel Company,
and there are others.
But Mr. Bryan made his division in
favor of the American Ice Company,
which had absolute control over the
prices in New York City, and which,
last spring turned upon the poor of the
tenement house districts and added
to its wealth by the suffering of the
poverty stricken, and Mr. Bryan also
makes his division In favor of a con
cern which is so strongly fortified that
every cotton ginning plant in the Uni
ted States is forced to pay tribute to
it.

Debt Decritw and Increase.

United States on June 30, 1803, three
months after the Democratic adminis
tration came in, was 1|3N5,037.1UU. On
June 30, 181M1, three years later, It
was 9847.3t13.800, an Increase of
31M.71K). Three years of Democratic
mismanagement of finances and of
distress under free trade caused this.

M'KINLEY'S RECORD AS A SOLDIER.
There IVm No Sncli Word as ltetreat
With Htm.
"There is no such word ns retreat,
boys; charge."
These words were those of Major
McKlnley nearly forty years ago.
They picture the character of the
President of to-day as of the soldier
of 1802.
Thomas O'Callaliau, with one eye
blinded and one ear closed to sound
forever, by a bullet wound received
under the national colors nt Gettys
burg, is now a resident of Fort Col
lins. He served through the war with
distinguished bravery.
"I served under President McKin
ley in 18<S3 and have met him fre
quently since. Every meeting brings
back to me one of the most patriotic
expressions that ever passed the lips
of a soldier. A party of forty men
under the then Major McKinley went
on scouting duty. They were perilous
times then.
"All went well until we reached the
top of a hill and unexpectedly ran
Into a body of 'Johnnies.' They were
in ambush, drawn up In firing line and
awaiting our approach. Our first
knowledge of their presence in the
ambush was a volley which brought
down our three front fours of horses
and men.
"Retreat!" our captain shouted.
"There is no such word ns retreat,
boys; charge!" came a second order,
this time from Major McKinley, who,
drawing his sword, dashed ahead,
followed by every one cf our men ex
cept those who had given their lives
to the cause. The enemy were com
pletely astounded and at our charge
retreated in confusion.
"Before we started on this scout
ing expedition we were ordered to take
three days' provisions. I had a sack
of pounded oats on the pommel of
my saddle. After the rout of the
enemy I turned the oats out to feed
my horse, and found fifteen bullets
in the sack. My horse was wounded,
as was Major McKinley's, and hie
sword hilt was cut to pieces by bul
lets. Major McKinley laughingly
called attention to it, and at the same
time complimenting his men on their
bravery, remarked:
" 'You have done me a great favor,
boys, and If it ever lies in my power,
I'll reciprocate.'"

"Who shall direct those 10,000,000
people in the Philippines who shall

of their country? 'Themselves,' say
some. 'Who are 'themselves - /' Judge
theui by what they have done. With
capacity for self-government, why
might they not have broken their yoke
long ago? Now there is the situa
tion. Who is best qualified to meet
it? It seems to me Henry M. Stan
ley lias answered this question when
lie tells us we should looif at our new
possessions in the light of what the
Anglo-Saxon has always done. How
can we leave these ignorant, poor, op
pressed and childlike people that in
such a providential way have come to
us? Leave them to stumble on and
suffer and die by the millions? Such
an act ought to brand us with ever
lasting disgrace. We must goto them
with our law and religion and liter
ature and our implements for shop
and field and our high ideals, and by
kindness and patience and everlasting
love try and build them up."—Rev.

Do Yon AVunt This to Itetiirn?
Nearly 300 men were fed at the
I.akcside free kitchen yesterday. Tli'ey
represented every grade of poverty
and destitution. A horde of hungry
men and boys blocked Kandolph street
from the Illinois Central depot almost
to Michigan avenue. They trampled
and danced on the cobblestones to
keep up bodily warmth. With the ma
jority one ration only whetted a rav
enous appetite, and they took their
places in the lile again and waited
another admittance. As the first set
of seventy-five men had been accom
modated, another and another install
ment was admitted, ami 750 men
broke their fast within two hours.
Among them was the hardy-looking
mechanic in his blue jeans, who had
it in his eye that he would work at
half a chance, and the man In sof'~r

perhaps tattered, proclaimed tin- bet

THE GREAT DESTROYER.
SOME STARTLING FACTS ABOUT
THE VICE OF INTEMPERANCE.
A Story With Two Bides—The Ordeal to
Which a Womau Was Subjected That
Was a Disgrace to a ClvllLzed Commu
nity—How the Police Aid ltumsellers.
A woman stood at the bar of justice,
and by her side toi'o stalwart policemen.
Her name was caHed and she answered.
Then the judge asked the clerk bo read the
charge against her.
"Disorderly conduct on the street and
disturbing the peace," read the clerk.
"Who are the witnesses against the
woman?" asked the judge, ana the twe
policemen stepped forward to be sworn.
"Now tell the story," said the judge,
and one of them began:
"I arrested the woman in front of a sa
loon on Broadway on Saturday night. She
had raised a great disturbance, was fight
ing and brawling with the men in the sa
loon, and the saloon keeper put her out.
She used the foulest language, and with
an awful threat struck at the keeper with
all her force. I then arrested lier and
took her to the detention house and
locked her up."
"The next witness will take the stand,"
said the judge, and the other policeman
stepped up.
"I saw the arrest, and I know it to be
just as stated. X saw the woman fighting
as the saloon keeper put her out on the
street. I heard the vile language she used
in the presence of the crowd that gathered
in the street."
"Call the saloon keeper. What do you
know of this case?"
"I know dis voinans vas makin' dis
turbance by my saloon. She comes there
und she makes trobles uijd she fifeht mit
me, und I puts her the door oud. I
know her all along. She vas pad vom
ans."
Turning to the trembling woman the
judge said, "This is a pretty clear case,
madam; have you anything to Buy in your
own defense?"
"Yes, judge," she answered in a strange
ly calm, though trembling voice.
"I am not guilty of the charge, and
those men standing before you have per
jured their souls to prevent aie from tell
ing the truth. It was they and not I who
violated the law. I was in the saloon last
Saturday night, but I'll tell you how it
happened.
"My husband did not come home from
work that evening and 1 feared he had
gone to the saloon. I knew he must have
drawn his week's wages, and we needed it
so badly. I put the little ones to bed. and
then waited all alone through the weary
hours until after the city clock struck
twelve. Then I though the saloons will
be closed, and he will be put out on the
street. Probably he will not be able to
get home, and the police will arrest him
and lock him up. I must go and find him
and bring him home. I wrapped a shawl
around me and started out, leaving the
little ones in bed; and, judge, I have not
seen them since."
Here the tears came to the woman's
eyes, and she almost broke down, but re
straining herself she went on:
"I went to the saloon where I thought
most likely he would be. It was about
twenty minutes after twelve, but the sa
loon, that man's saloon"—pointing to the
saloon keeper, who seemed to want to
crouch out of sight—"it was still open,
and my husband and these two police
men," pointing to those who had so lately
sworn against her, "were standing at the
bar with their lips still wet with drink,
and the flecks of foam not yet settled in
the empty glasses before them.
"I stepped up to my husband and asked
liini togo home with me. but the men
laughed at him, and the saloon keeper dr
dered me out. I said, 'Xo, 1 want my
husband togo with me.' Then 1 tried to
tell them how badly we needed the money
he was spending, and again the keeper
cursed me and ordered me to leave. Then
I confess 1 could not stand any more, and
I said, 'You ought to be prosecuted for
violating the midnight closing law.'
"At this the saloon keeper and police
man rushed upon me and put me out into
the street, and one of the policemen,
grasping my arm like a vice, hissed in my
ear, 'l'll get you a thirty days' sentence
in the workhouse, and then see what you
think about suing people.' He called a
patrol wagon, pushed me in.and drove to
the house of detention, and, judge, you
know the rest. All day yesterday 1 was
locked up, my children at home alone,
with no fire, no food, no mother."
It was well that the story was finished,
for a great sob choked her utterance, and
she could say no more.
"Dismissed," said the judge in a husky
voice, and the guilty woman who had so
disturbed the peace passed out of the
court room.
Hut what of the saloon keeper who had
violated the law by keeping open after
twelve o'clock at night? And what of the
policemen who violated their obligation
by drinking while on d utf, and tvlTb
threatened an honest woman with a sen
tence in the workhouse if she dared to tell
the truth! Oh, nothing at all. Tftey
were too gtiiltv to be piosecuted.—Cin

If experience has ever cast the light of
judgment upon any practice in the world
in which men have been permitted to en

LABOURCHE ON COCKFIGHTS.
Why Be Despises It Is Very Plain to be
Seen.
There Is no word so often misapplied
as "sportsman," says London Truth.
A man who owns a racehorse is called
one, although he may never have rid
den a horse in his life. A man who
backs one man to pummel another,
who knows the rules of the prize ring,
iB called one. And now Mr. Herbert
Vivian aspires to become one of the
fraternity by reviving the noble sport
of cock-fighting. It is evident, how
ever, that he is not aware of the law.
A cook is held to be a domestic animal,
and he would bring himself under the
cruelty to animals act of 1849. But
he would also come under the clause
In that act that impoees a penalty of
£6 on any one who keeps, uses, or acts
in the management of any plaoe for
the purpose ot baiting any bull, bear,
badger, dog, cock, or any other kind
of animal, whether of domestic or wild
nature, or shall permit any such place
to be used as aforesaid. Under this
clause there have been a good many
oonvictions, and it has, moreover, been
held that any one who encourages or
aeeieU at a cock-fight is liable to Im
prisonment for cruelty to animals. I
saw a cockfight nearly fifty years ago
in Mexico, and it seemed a very brutal i
performance. The then president was
an ardent supporter of cock-fighting,
and he waa by way of owning the best
oocks in the country. He Invited me to
go with him to see a fight. Every man
was betting, and his excellency covered
all stakes set a®ainst his cocks. 1
lost, above £IOO to him myself.
