But he isn't talking much about the "full dinner pail" now. The high prices of meats and other food stuffs con trolled by the Trusts have knocked the ''full dinner paitf' out for use in this campaign. He started out sometime ago with another gag, "let well enough alone" which interpreted means keep on voting the Republican ticket, just as you have been doing, voting for the high tariff, the trusts', and all that kind of thing, for they have brought prosperity to you. Things are well enough, and just keep on "letting well enough alone." A few days ago he made a speech at Akron, Ohio, in which he reiterated his old gag, "let well enough alone," and followed it up with the injunction to to "stand pat." Hanna isn't of the tariff , reform, anti-trust brand of Republicans, he believes in the Ding ley tariff from A to Z and that trusts are simply the logical outgrowth of onr material and industrial de velopment and progress. They are good things and instead of going back on them, apologizing for them, getting scared and promising to clip something off the former and to put some chains and balls on the latter, the Republicans ought to stand by both, "stand pat" and make no concessions. You may differ as much from Mark Hanna as it is possible for one man to differ from another but you can't help admiring his pluck and his willingness to stand by what his party does and defend its policies. "Of course he tries to humbug the people in doing this, as he did with the "fall dinner pail" racket, and the "advance agent of pros perity racket," but still he stands by his party and as sumes full responsibility, without showing any white feather. It is the audacity of the successful leader and humbug that looms up into proportions large enough to com mand admiration. There is more or les3 demoraliza tion among the Republican leaders, and consequently many of them have declared in favor of tariff re vision, the repeal of tariff duties on such articles as are controlled by trusts which find shelter under the protective duties, but Mark isn't one of these for he advises Republicans to turn adeaf ear to those timid tariff reformers and trust smashers and "stand pat," put on a bold front and defend everything. From the standpoint of partisanship and pluck that is all right, but from the standpoint of statesmanship it is all wrong. If things were well enough it would be good advice to let well enough alone, to seek no new things, to try no experiments. If the policies and the administration of those poli cies were all right then he might well say "stand pat" and defend them; but things are not well enough, and no dhe knows it better than Mark Hanna. The policies of the party he represents and speaks for and the administration of those policies are not beyond questioning, and no one knows that better than Mark Hanna. It may be well enough with Mark Hanna, with his millions, and the trusts he speaks for, and with the beneficiaries of the protective system which he favors, but how is it with the masses of the people? Is It well enough with them? His claims of unprecedented pros perity, and that things are well enough are, as far as tho masses of the people are concerned, frauds of tho first water. It costs the wae earner to-day thirty per cent, more to live than it di 1 four years ago. If his earnings wore increased in proportion this wouldn't make any difference, and it would probably be a good thing, because it would put and keep more money in circulation. Or if the farmers reaped the benefit of the increased prices of the food stuffs consumed it wouldn't be so bad, for that money would pass through their hands into circulation, but it does not. There is little increase in the price of the products of the farm as they come from the farm, but when they pass into the hands of the com bines which manipulate them before they reach the consumers then the price goes up, and the consumer has to pay it. It may be "well enough with the combine, but it isn't well enough with tho man who has to buy the necessaries of life from the combines. If the wage-earners im .proved in condition and reaped profit on their wages as the trusts do on their business it would be well enough, and the wage-earner might let it alone and desire it to continue. Let us take a couple of the trusts bv wav of illustration. The Beef Trust, for instance, annually han dies about 600,000,000 worth of meats, on which it makes a profit of about $100,000,000. The Steel Trust makes on its business a profit of 1140,000,000 a year, about eleven per cent, on its alleged capital, in cluding the inflated stocks. This makes $240,000,000 raked in by two trusts, most of which comes out of the American people, and working people. They both sell consider able abroad, but they say their profits are small on what they sell abroad, and consequently most of their profits come out of the Amer ican consumers. These are but two out of 347 trusts, but they are the boss trusts, the kind that bring prosperity in big hunks to the country. It is well enough with them, but it isn't well- enough with the people who are plundered to make the enor mous profits for these .two colossal trusts, not to speak of those of lesser proportions which are in the plundering game, all sheltered un der the Dingley tariff. It will never be well enough until the people, who by their labor create the wealth, reap a fair proportion of the prosperity their labor makes. A RADICAL LIE PUNCTURED. The Republican leaders are trying to make the people believe that those persons who have not paid their poll tax for this year, cannot register and are disfranchised. Every white man who was entitled to vote before the constitutional amendment went into effect, and the son of any white man so entitled who has become of age since, can register, whether he has paid his poll tax or not. This puts him on the permanent list and he can vote every year hereafter, by complying with the poll tax pro vision, if subject to poll tax. The following from a letter of Senator Simmons to the chairmen of the ninety-seven Democratic county committees, explains the law bear ing upon this: "It will appear from an examination of the amendment and of the Election Law that the non-payment of poll-tax is not a disqualification for registra tion, but under both the amendment and the Election Law no one is en titled to vote unless he shall have paid his poll-tax on or before the first day of May of the present year, unless he has become or age since the first day of June, 1901, (the day for listing taxes for the previous year), or unless he was over fifty years of age on the first day of June, 1901, or has under the law been reliev ed from the payment of poll-tax by the county commission. In other words, when the elector offers him self for registration, it is not neces sary that he shall exhibit his poll tax receipt or show that he has paid bis poll tax for the previous year, but af ter be has registered and be r ore he is allowed to cast his vote it is necessary tbat he shall exhibit to the Judges of Election bis poll tax receipt, or show to the satisfaction of the Judges of Election that he has paid said tax. Un less he exhibits his receipt or shows that his poll tax has been paid he can not vote. This applies to everybody except the persons mentioned above, to-wit; those who have been relieved hy the commissioners of poll tax, or have become of age since June 1st, 1901, or had passed the poll tax age at that time. There is nothing to prevent any white man from registering, and nothing to prevent the registered man, who under the old law had a right to vote from voting in elections after this year, provided he comply with the poll tax provisions, which is not hard to do for any one who desires to vote, or take any interest in public affairs. The law disfran chises no white man who could vote before the amendment went into ef fect, and these Republican deceivers know it. It has ceased to be a question be tween the Pennsylvania mine opera tors and the striking miners, and has become one between the mine opera tors and the public, the consumers of coal. The operators have had their say and made their decision. Public Bentiment is crystallizing and will be heard from. . For LaGtrippe and In fluenza use CHENEY'S EXPECTORANT. For sale by J. C. Bbepaxd.- - THE BAREST DEFIANT. In some respects the conference between the President and the man agers of the anthracite Coal Trust, .tday, was a failure, for the coal barons were obdurate, and absolute ly and arrogantly refused to heed the President's strongly phrased plea in behalf of the people, and absolutely and imperiously refused to yield one jot from the position they had taken, or to make any concession, or to treat with Mr. Mitchell, the Presi dent of the Miners' Union, iu any manner whatever. Not only that, but taking advantage of their oppor tunity they lectured the President on what $hey held was his duty, and told him that instead of trying, as he was doing, to bring the strike to an end by peaceable means and appeals to sentiment, he should back them up with soldiers and powder and ball and treat those striking miners &a "rebels." If the State of Pennsylvania is powerless to protect us against these strikers, they exclaimed, it is your duty, on the call of the State, to send United States soldiers to pro tect us. The State of Pennsylvania now has over 4,000 soldiers doing guard duty in the troubled region. Be fore federal troops could be sent tho Legislature must be called in extra session, admission made that the State is unable to cope with the situation and a joint request by the Legislature and the Governor be made for U. S. troops, and by tbat time the supply of coal in the Northern cities would be utterly ex hausted, which would mean great distress and suffering and death to many. What care the coal barons for that? But it wasn't a failurb altogether, for the uncompromising, arrogant and insolent reply of these haughty coal barons has done much to crys tallize public sentiment against them and to emphasize the neces sity of legislation to break the power of such combines and enable the State to protect the people from insolent, selfish greed aod intoler able oppression. DEFOE AND GOLDSMITH. At the request of Col. Joseph M. Morehead, President of the Guilford Battle Ground Association, we pub lish the following interesting letter: Roxbuby, Mass., 8ept. 29, 1902. Dear Colonel Morehead : I am very much obliged to you for the pamphlets which you are kind enough to send me through our friend Mr. Benbow. I wish some of you North Carolina gentlemen wouidhuat up the descendants of Daniel Defoe, the author of Robinson Orusoe, who lived somewhere in North Carolina. I think that the great Englishman him self came over here. I think that ac counts for his very accurate knowledge of affairs in the Southern States ihon in Captain Jack. There is another thintr whicb ought to be looked for in some old store bouse in Wilmington. Oliver Gold smith, the poet, meant to emigrate to North Carolina. He packed his trunk and put it Qn bDard the ship; the ship waited for the tide, and while it waited Goldsmith changed his mind and never came to America. But the trunk came and is somewhere in Wil mington, unless Lord Cornwallis stole Goldsmith's shirts and stocking?. Some of our young people ought to mako a novel out of this. It has a much larger foundation than most historical novels have. With great respect, dear sir, I am. truly yours, Edw. E Hale CURRENT COMMENl Nobody is surprised to hear that the Sugar and Standard Oil Truat8 have their yards full of coal. The Trusts expend all the sympa thies they have to spare from them selves on each other, and have none left for worker or consumer. Brooklyn Citizen, Dem. Senator Piatt, of tfew York, is disturbed because the Republican party will be held responsible for the effect of the coal strike, and says that it is absurd that "people should always blame the party in power for every prevailing ill." The Senator, however, does not think it at all absurd that the par ty in power should claim credit for every prevailing good. Leuisville Courier-Journsu, Dem. The Germans in shouthwest Africa have made so much of a suc cess with their cotton growing ex periment, that they have increased the number of experts employed by drawing of the graduating classes of Tuskegee. Booker Washington has just sent out several additional fore men, who will take service under the German colonial government in Africa. The development of this enterprise ia being watched closely by the whole world. It may have momentous results; but it s yet too early to admit of any valuable opin ion on the subject being formulated. Cliattanooga Times, Ind. Speaker Henderson must feel that he has sacrificed himself in vain in his attempt to check the growth of tariff revision sentiment in Iowa. Judge Birdsall, chosen to succeed the Speaker as the Republi can candidate for Congress in the Third Iowa district, has just an nounced that he sympathizes entire ly with the moderate and orthodox view on tariff legislation embodied in the last two Iowa platforms. How Speaker Henderson could have found any serious difficulty in subscribing to these views remains one of the unsolved mysteries of current poli tics. Washington Times, Rep. What's Your race Worth?

Not long since there was a great run on the fish markets because it was an nounced that fish was food for the brain. Of course the fallacy of the fad was soon exploded. Normally the food we eat nourishes brain, lici ves, muscle, bones, etc., each part of the body assimilating phosphorous salts, lime, ac cording to its iio!. When the brain begins to show weakness or the nerves become- sensitive it is a sign that there is a loss of the nutrition contained in the food eaten, and this loss is in general due to disease of the stomach, and its allied organs.

T .o. cotton BWEl p$SS0& J market opened steady, with prices one point higher to two points lower and for a short period was inclined to waver under realizing by the room longs and some bear pressure. How ever, as the weather South continued too cool and wet for the best interest of the crop, commission houses were abundantly supplied with buying or ders and the whole list stiffened up towards the first half hour, January reaching 8 89 and May 8.71. 8pecu l&iion was fairly active all the early session, with some disposed to lean towards the bull side on the theory that Europe would continue to absorb the bulk of the cotton as it reached the ports and that domestic spinners would support prices in in terior southern ,;8pot markets. The pri vate crop reports from the belt were mixed, some reporting improvement, but the great majority telling of short crop prospects and continued deterio ration owing to prolongation of the wet spell and period of cool nights. Receipts were again liberal but were ignored, the trade giving attention chiefly to crop and weather reports. The Liverpool cables were a trifle bet ter than anticipated and were accom panied by many buying orders.
