10,000 MURDERS A YEAR.

(Philadelphia Telegraph.
Ten thousand homicides a year!
Ten thousand lives taken annually In
passion or revenge, and legal retri
butions so few that they are hardly
worth recording! Let a man but
have the means to hire a smart law
yer, and he Is as good as free. Jus
tice seems to have lost her eye ban
dage, and to be as easily dazzled by
money aa the rest of a money-mad
land. Every acquittal of a murderer
invites another murder, and the
chain of homicide Is constantly
lengthened. Still worse, the whole
people grow accustomed to man
slaughter, and murder ceases to ex
cite the horror and antipathy that
naturally belong to It. The nose first
tolerates the smell of blood, and ends
by sniffing Its odor eagerly.
America la coming to the parting
of the waya. One road leads to sav
agery; the other to civilization. A
halt must be called upon private ven
geance. The public has been too len
ient, too sentimental. Justice, Inex
orable, Impartial, must replace the
mock trials that go on. The chican
eries of the law must be put a stop
to.

Artist's Awful Crime Results From
Mistake 'in Farts.
PARIS, Oct. 23. Truly shocking is
a tragedy enacted this week at Gap,
where M. Dlsdle de Rousset, a painter
and a knight of the Legion of Honor,
killed his own son. The young man,
who had recently returned from mili
tary service In Tonkin, was very wild
and eccentric, and Is said to have con
stantly threatened to kill his mother
and sisters who were In awful dread
of him. A few days ago he waa In
such a state of delirium through
drink that neighbors had to be called
In to help tie him up. The direct
cause of the tragedy was a quarrel on
Wednesday evening when Just before
the dinner hour he announced that he I previous election went to Palmer and
PORTLAND, Or., Oct. 23. That
portion of Portland's sporting gentry
who only wager on elections Is be
ginning to get Into action and dur
ing the last two weeks something
like $4000 has been posted on the
presidential election. In spite of the
-t that In the east the odds on
Tnft have been hovering around 3
and 4 to 1, here In the city the pre
vailing odds have been 2 to 1, with
an occasional small bet of 3 to 1.
The largest wager made so far was
a bet that was made by two promi
nent business men as the result of a
political talk during luncheon. While
the talk was tropical the Taft man
wagered $3500 against $1750 that
Taft would defeat Bryan. The next
largest bet that has reached the ears
of the gossips was $220 against
$150. The rest of the money has
been wagered In small bets of $100
and less and most of this has been
bet on Taft's majority In Oregon
One or two foolish Bryanltes have
figured that Bryan will not be beat
en by more than 12,000, but the most
of the money has been placed that
Taft will get between 15,000 and 19
000 over Bryan.
less than the total number of votes
polled by Bryan In either 1896 or
1900. But Roosevelt's tremendous
and widespread personal popularity
must be taken Into consideration In
accounting for the sudden drop In
the Democratic vote In 1904 below
the totals polled In the two preceding
elections. It Is safe to say that If
Judge Parker had had any other op
ponent but Roosevelt against him on
the Republican aide he would have
received more votea than Bryan did
In either of bis campaigns, owing to
the support which conservative Dem
ocrats, alienated by Bryan's radical
tendencies, would have given blm.
Aa it waa, a large part of thia con
servative Democratic element, to
gether with a great many Independ
ents, voted for Roosevelt. As a con
sequence, the latetr's plurality was,
numerically, the largest, and, based
on the number of voters, the second
largest ever received by a candidate
for president of the United States. Jj
ine oiner canaiaaies in re-
celved votes aa follows:
Eugene V. Debs, Soc. Dem. 402,159
Sllaa C. Swallow, Pro 258.356
Thos. E. Watson. Pop 117.183
Chas. H. Corrlgan, Soc Lab. 11,249
In 1896 out of a total of 446 elect
oral votes, McKinley received 271
and Bryan 176, making a majority
of 95 for McKinley.
In 1900, out of 476 available elect
oral votes, McKinley received 292,
agaiast Bryan's 155, which gave the
Republican candidatea a majority
over his opponent of 137, and a gain
over his majority in the former elec
tion of 42 electoral votes.
In 1904 the total number of elect
oral votes still being 476, Roosevelt
received 336 and Parker 140, a ma
jority for the former of 196. This
beat MrKinley'a electoral majority of
1900 by 101, and that of 189 by
59.
A study of the electoral returns by
states for the three elections of
1896, 1900 and 1904 shows that
these 20 states went Republican In
all three elections: Connecticut, Del
aware, Illlnoia, Indiana. Iowa, Maine,
Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota,
New Hampshire, New Jersey, New
York, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon,
Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Ver
mont, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
Eleven statea, all belonging to the
Solid South," the main reliance of
the Democratic party, went Demo
cratic in all three elections: Alabama,
Arkansaa, Florida, Georgia, Louisi
ana, Mississippi, Mori- Carolina,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and
Virginia.
Colorado, Idaho, Missouri, Mon
tana and Nevada went Democratic In
1896 and 1900, but passed over to
Roosevelt In 1904.
In addition to Nebraska, Bryan'a
own state, Kansas, Soutb Dakota,
Utah, Washington and Wyoming de
cided that one try for Bryan was
enough and voted Republican In 1900
and 1904.
California split Its electoral vote
In 1896. while In 1900 and 1904 the
state went Republican. Kentucky
split Its vote In 1806, when Palmer
and Buckner ran on the national
Democratic ticket, owing largely to
the fact that General Simon B. Buck
ner, the national Democratic candi
date for vice-president, waa a Ken
tuckian. In the succeeding elections
Kentucky returned to the Democratic
column.
Maryland split its electoral vote In
1904. giving Parker seven votes and
Roosevelt one.
In this year'a election there will be
a total of 483 electoral votes, a gain
of seven over the total of 1904, due
to the admission of Oklahoma as a
state. The number of electoral votes
necessary to elect Is 242, a simple
majority of one. Oklahoma, it is
thought, will go Democratic.

Why Colds Are Dangerous.
Because you have contracted or
dinary colds and recovered from
them without treatment ot any Kind,
do not for a moment imagine that
colds are not dangerous. Everyone
knows that pneumonia and aaw-onic
catarrh have their origin In a com
mon cold. Consumption is not cau
sed by a cold but the cold prepares
the system for the reception and de
velopment of the germa that would
not otherwise have louna loagment.
It Is the same with all Infectious dis-
les. Diphtheria, scarlet fever.
measles and whooping cough are
much more likely o tie contracted
when the child has a cold. You will
see from this that more real danger
lurks In a cold than In any other of
the common ailments. The easiest
and quickest way to cure a cold Is to
take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
The many remarkable cures effected
by thia preparation have made It a
staple article of trade over a large
part of tbe world. For sale by
