"Tho Interpreter," writing in the October Outing Magazine, says: - "Tho "men who get what they do not earn from those who earn what thoy do not get are for the first time since the fall of slavery in this.country facing a great moral pro test. "A new fight for freedom is upon ns. The predatory interests are active in the republican party because that party happens to dominate. But tho democratic arty has only to" show signs of life to find the forces ot evil working in it. "There is no hope in either party. The real hops of the people is to clean out both parties, and make tliem serve tins' country." "It will do no good to change parties. So long as peo ple can be fooled by merely that prey will keep that game np, and fatten on it. But the question before .the people now is to cleanse the party in power. That mav be done only by standing my men like Beveridge in Indiana, LaFollotte in Wiscoinsin, Clapp in .Minnesota, fsuious ana jmiruocK in jvuusas; una cue insur gent republican congressmen wherever they are named. These men represent the free element in the republican party. They are captains in the new battle for freedom in America. They stand for the free man who demands his earnings in this civilization of ours. If his earnings were picked from his pockets to pay unrighteous dividends upon stock watered by the capitalization of unjust laws, the av erage man would have more savings, more leisure, more time to think and grow and enjoy and improve the world about him. It is his freedom that the average man needs his free dom to dominate his own party, to make his own laws, to rim his own government, to live a broader, better life than he ma)r live under the rule of the great interests that con trol the government by campaign contributions to what ever party may be in power. That is what the fight in Indiana means what it means all over America. "It is the fight of free men for a free party, that through it they may serve a free country." TO BUILD A BIG STORE FIRST, BUILD A BASE MENT. l.s Enierson said-that "an institution is but the length ened shadow of one man." A store is no greater than its owner. It will grow up to the stature of his biggest ideas but no larger. t , Every store in this town is growing up to its owner's size. So that, no matter how small it is today, it will become as big as he determines it shall be. For your "natural merchant" is a big advertiser. He may be able, just now, to use but a small space but he is j getting ready to use big space. And he uses the small space persistently,, making the advertising as inevitably a part of his expense as anything else and aiming at a constant expansion of the space used. That sort of merchant will build a big store for he is, potentially, a big merchant already. SWOPE WITNESS AT LAST FOUND J. W. Ridge Located in Portland Af ter a World-Wide Search Will Throw New Light on Family Con nections. PORTLAND, Or., Sept. 26. J. W. Ridge, witness in the Swope will con test, for whom a nation-wide search has been instituted, was located in Portland today. Ridgo said that he would give evidence to the effect that Elmer C. Swope is not a son of the late Colonel Swope of Kansas City, who died from poison, alleged to have been administered by Dr. Hyde. Elmer Swope is from West Vir ginia and has entered a claim to tho fortune left hy the late Millionaire on the ground that he is Swope's son. Ridge said: "Elmer C. Swope is the son of Pe ter If. Swope of Eastern Pennsyl vania. Peter M. Swope und myself wore born on farms in Pennsylva nia only a few miles apart. I wan intimately acquainted with him. La ter in life Pe(er lef j. the country, due to some financial troubles. I do not know where he is now, but I ran across him in Ottawa, Canada. "The attorneys who are working on the case huve not heen able hith erto to find anyone who saw Swope in Ottawa, although they traced him that fur. "That 'was tho missing link they needed to prove tjiat Elmer Swopo is tho sou of Peter M. Swope und not of Thomas H. Swope. and hence Irf no more tho rightful claimant for the Swopo fortune than am I." Ridge moved from Pennsylvania to Kansas City a number of years' ago.

State Rights Controversy, One of the Features Bryan to Talk on the Initiative and Referendum ' Other Important Questions. PUEBLO, Colo., Sept. 20. With the states rights controversy as one of the features of the congress, the 18th national irrigation congress opened here this afternoon. Un questionably tho recent fight in tho national conservation congress at St Paul over the control of resources hy the stnto will bo renewed here and a bitter struggle is expected. The. bone of contention at present is the Englo dam in New Mexico. The great dyke on the Rio Grande id costing the government .$9,000,000, Tho Colorado delegates, hacked by the state's rights advocates, assert that New Mexico is profiting at the exponso of Colorado because the dam aids Northern New Mexico, but retards tho development of tho Snn Luis valley in Southern Colorado. The Colorado delegates want the coiigrebs to adopt resolutions dis paraging tho project. Tho program for this afternoon includes un address by former Gov ernor Alva Adams of Colorado, fol lowing tho opening of tho congress by President B. A. Fawler, who re viewed tho work of tho congress. William J. Bryan will address tho dolcgatcs tonight on the initiative and referendum." Snn Francisco, Chicago and Reno aro in the field to secure the next meeting of tho congress, und Snn Francisco is seeking endorsement by jhe congrcsb for governmental selec tion as the site of tho Panama-Pacific exposition in 1015, , Among tho representatives at th'i congress aro nino emissaries from foreign countries who came to gath er data for irrigation work.
