Senator Repew t 11s of a conversa tion between two men of his acquain tance, one of whom is the husband of an exceptionally handsome woman. It appears that one evening after dinner the second man remarked to tie proud husband at a moment when the beauty's attention was giv en elsewhere, “Old man. your wife is such a beautiful creature that 1 wonder you are not jealous f her." “To tell you the truth. 1 am,” an swered the husband, frankly and with fine disregard of the attempt of his friend to he facetious. “For that reason I never invite any one here that any sane woman could take a fancy to.” JUDGE PMKEI WAS NOT FOUR-FLUSHING.

Washington. D. C„ Aug. 23.—The king inarched up the hill witli ten thousand men and th' ii marched down again. That is exact! what Govern or Cummins, of Iowa, did in the late State convention held in that State by the Republican cohorts. He had made a most strenuous campaign, based entirely upon tariff revision and the idea that all schedules of the Dingley tariff should lie revised which are being used to shelter the trusts of Hit* country. He ripped, roared, snorted and tore his shirt. It was "norated” around the enthv country that he would have the scalps of the trusts in that convention or “busi a hauie string.” He busted. That great pacificator, great alleged orator, in fac t, hot air emitter and smooth pa cer. th Hon. Jonathan Prentiss Rol- Mver, senator of the I’nited States from the great State of Iowa, came in between the Perkins force and the Cummins forces and then there was peace in large, float in" juicy chunks, and the standpatter and the tariff "’isionists fell upon each other’s necks and wept and tin* goose honked high in the heavens. It was the ease of the lion and the lamb lying down er. and it was the same old story—the lamb lay down in the belly of the lion. It simply proved the same old thing that, we Democrats all have been preaching to the voters of the coun try for the past dozen years, viz: that a Republican is a Republican before he is a tariff revisionist, that when he is preaching tariff revision he is selling soap from the tail gate of a wagon and after he lias sold Ids 1 ' he will run the wagon over the voter. The lowa convention was the clearest ease of fake, hy|>ocracy, swindle, lie; and steal that there has been placed on record in the past de cade of American politics. Cummins led Ids forces right up to the tariff revision trough and then gave litem swill instead of corn. He surren dered everything he had advocated before the people for the empty hon- of a third nomination for the gov ernorship. Thus did he demonstrat" that he is a Republican and a pan sucker before he is a patriot, and a man who believes that his people are being robbed bv the tariff sched ules The people now in his State have the most splendid opportunit' they ever had in their lives to swat one Cummins in the neck and vote what he has been preaching to them for the last six years. They are all buying in a protected market and selling in a free trade market. They all are paying more for every farm implement they buv than the farmer in Canada and in any other foreign country. So long as they continue to vote the Republican ticket for a congressman they are fastening on their necks this yoke. How do they like the sores it has made? How would ttiey like to get rid of it? They, and all the peopl<> of this com munity. can get rid of it in a burr bv voting the Democratic ticket for congress this fall, and by thus re pudiating such sell outs as the man Cummins, of lowa.

A good many people have been writing to the Democratic congress ional committee that the reason there was disaffection in tihe Republican ranks in the respective districts ask ed about, was because there was ’’too much bossism” and that the people resented it. Great goodness! if so- called bossism is the cause of Repub lican disaffection in anv one Repub lican district in this country, then why should not there he widespread disaffection in the Republican ranks all over the country? If ever the Republican party had a boss in tills country in the history of its uarty. and a man who dominates Us policies like a Colossus between whose huge Legs lesser politicians look for green er graves, and to whom the late Mark Hanna was a political pigmy, let them oast their eves on one Theodore Roo sevelt. He is "IT” and there is no other like unto him in all the Repub lican political firmament. He not on ly compelled a Republican congress to do bis bidding in a number of things, end made them crawl on their bellies, hut he is dominating the con gressional campaign and telling the managers of the congressional com mittee. of the Republican party, that < they must dance to his music or they will get no money with which to con duct the campaign, and he knows where to get it because his hench- man, Cortelyou. filched enough out of the Insurance companies two years ago. robbed of widow- and orphans, to carry on this fight and do his bid ding. This money came, as I e from tlie insurance companies and, therefore, from the widows an;] or phans of this country. The same fund that Judge Parker, the Democratic nominee for president in 1904, ac cused the Republican party of having* and the same accusation was denied by one Roosevelt in vehement lan guage. Do you remember it? Well, Mr. Teddy knew aU Up- time that lie lied when he said that the Republican party had not K'»t money from the corporations and especially from the insurance companies. He made a hold bluff ami it went. The men be- liin-l Judge Parker were too timid or too venal to allow the Judge to tell iho truth and produce the evidence ho possessed at Ihe time and the peo ple 1 ^udievod that Judge Parker was “four-llushing.” He was not making a bluff. Some of the evidence Judge Parker possessed was furnished by the writer of this letter and all of ii has come out ip the late scandal in thi investigation in New York and not only corroborated Judge Parker, but the writer. 1 dare one of tlo-m to denv it and I will produce the same proof that came out in the investigation. Yet, men sav Roosevelt is the friend of the people and that he is so honest thai the corporations that are seeking to injure the people are antagonistic i<> him. It is a lie. Not one of the tar iff-fed corporations is antagonistic to Teddy. He has not tackled one of them. Only the odious trusts, for whom no man on earth has a g< od word, have been asailed bv him and his administration. That's easy. Anv man can kick a mean dog and get the applause of the public. Why does not he jump on the tariff fed monopolies and demand a reduct ion of the tariff on the particular schedule that shelters them? He dare not do so. They are popular in (lie Republican party and he does not want to touch them. He wants their monev to help him perpetuate the Re publicans in power in the next house of representatives for a specific rea son and that reason is fear of expos ure of tile rottenness of Ids admin istration. He is the double rectified quintessence of bossism in the Re- culdican party, and the leaders can t get twav from tin- fact. Let ’em try' it. The letter last week- that I wrote made the remark that the Republi- <nns wei;e playing a trick on the peo ple by asking for the one dollar sub scription. and I knew whereof i spoke. As I have remarked previous ly in this letter, they have all the money they want and they got it from one place. The Democrats have no such source of revenue ' > fill the isjckets of the committee in order to pav Hie legitimate expenses of a con gressional campaign. We must depend ou the plain peo ple out in the country who believe In honest government and retrenchment in expenditures. W,e have no protect ed monopolies to get money from. They won’t give it to us because they believe we will swat them when we get the chance, and they are right. We will. Therefore, the Democratic congressional committee lias come to the conclusion to ask the people out ie the country to help the cause and send in to the chairman the small sum of one dollar to help defray the expens-s of printing the truth about the merciless scoundrels who have been lying and stealing from them for the past dozen years. One dollar will not buy votes, but it will print the truth. Send it to us and get the truth circulated in many places where otherwise it would not go. Address your dollar to the chairman of the Democratic congressional committee, Washington. D. and it will be put ♦ o good uses and you will receive a receipt for the same. You can frame the receipt and leave it as a heritage to your children, for if we win this house of r presentatives it will be something to be proud of so long as you and they are alive. Give us your dollar The indefensible Republican trick lately practiced by the secretary of the navy in awarding half of a con tract to build battleships to the ar- nu-r plate trust, ip defiance of the fact that tho anti-trust bid was the lowest of the two. has revamped the discussion here in political circles anent the idiocy of building ten mil lion dollar battleships and thus feed ing the steel and armor plate trust. Instead of building the little subma rine torpedo boats as coast and har bor defenses that cost only about a half million dollars In mv last let ter I wrote of the adootio- bv the British admiralty of th<> type of sub marine boat we have adopted in our navy. I will now briefly dwell on the extent to which Great Britain has JONES CONDEMNED. Candidate for Governor Arrested by the Officers of Greenville. Greenville. Aug. 21.—"Was A. C. Jones arrested?"

The application of the submarine by the bv tile i*ni rust i.-sli Ish naval mines mining to til' 1 British admirality is shown plans that haw been made to the coast deft-n se of Ui ■ Brit 's almost exclusively to this weapon.

Theiv will bo three of these stations upon the south coast, located at Portsmouth, Davenport and Dover. The remaining three stations art 1 Icing organized on the North Sea.

Germany. Spain. Port ugal. Brazil and Holland hive been supplied with submarine boats of the type adopted in our navy. France has always set great store by the subma- rin and has sixtv or more of the e craft s. The naval appropriation act just passed authorizes the secretary oi the navv to contract for submarines in the amount of $1 after certain competitive tests whicli are to he made during the coming nine mouths, after which the contracts tor tie boats are to be let. It will be scon that this government is proceeding under the theory that tie se boats tin- still experimental. notwithstanding the severe trying-out they have had in our navy, and in spite of tin* fact j released on a that Great Britain and all of tue l'*ad- i lars turnisiied in”' maritime nations have long since | recognized the value of this American invention and have equipped them selves with fleets of these boats and i are continuing each year to add to J ttie same.

Then St. Peter told me that heaven was at Hie too. and that in order to get there I must take the big piece of chalk he gave me and slowly climb the ladder, writing on each rung some sin I had committed.” Papa (laying down his newspaper): "Ami did you finally reach heaven, my son?" Willie: “No. papa, for just as I was trying to think of something to write on the second rung I looked up and saw you coming down.’’ Papa: "And what did I come down for?” Willie: "That’s what 1 asked you, and you told me you were *coming for more chalk.” Bill’s Chance.
