Washington, Aug. 22. Taedem
ocratic Congressional campaign
inaugurated tonight a vitriolic
personal attack cn the president of
the United States that makes the
philippics of Tillman in his wildest
moments as tame as one of the
Rollo Btcries by comparison. This
attack inveeting the present contest
for control of the 60th congress with
a previously unthought-of bitterness
was promulgated through what is
probably oneof tbe most remarkable
pieces of literature ever emanating
from a national political committee.
"A faker," "four flusber," "the
deepest scheming politician in the
country," "in collusion with the
trusts." These are some of the
quali ies attributed to President
Roosevelt by Coarles A Edwards,
secretary of the democratic con-
cretS:onal committee daring the
last few eampaiges and at present
serving in (be same capacity, in a
statement issued this evening from
tbe committee headquarters in this
city. Mr. Edwards formerly was
Washington correspondent for a
Texas newspaper.
President Roosevelt's v ejection
of himself into the congressional
campaign by means of his letter to
Representative Jamea Watson, of
Indiana, the republican whip of the
Houee, has brought oat the demo
cratic attack upon him. The state
ment prepared and issued by Mr.
Edwarda follow in part:
"President Roosevelt is attempt
ing to dominate this congressional
fight. Hislettir to Congressman
James E. Watson of Indiana has
proved tbe assertion. He tells tbe
country through this Utter to Mr.
Watson that the republicans must
do in this campaign to ' win the
House.
"Tbe chief thing in the letter to
Mr. WatEon from lbs President of
the United States is not that Mr.
Watson amounts to a thing in the
world, but his declaration that the
tariff question mast be relegated to
the rear and await republican re
vision in their own time and od-
' r i unity, thus continuing to sub-
re tne interests 01 tne larin-iea
monopolies that grow fat on the
people's pocketbooks.
"The thing for which Mr. Presi
dent Roosevelt is pluming himself
most in this letter for which be
lakes greatest credit consists of octopus-chasing
and trust-busting.
There are two brands of trust-busting,
the chasing of octopuses
and the butting of trusts that
are odius and the chasing of octo
puses and tbe busting of trusts that
are popular. As yet Mr. President
Roosevelt has only undertaken the
first of those: he has not yet assail
ed a popular monopoly.
".Now there is an octopus in this
land of ours the head devil ofi the
whole layout, namely the tariff oc
topus. This is a very popular oc
topus. It can muster au immense
majority in either wing of the 59th
congress It is the octopus Colonel
Bryan is anxious to smite, hip and
thigh, and it was narrated around
that Colonel Roosevelt bad a rod in
pickle for it that was to be burst
under the monsters belly in the
closing boars of the late momentu
oua season; but, like General Beau
regard at Shiloc; the yresident ap
pears to have argued that it was
glory enough : for one session, for
the whole country was applauding
his exploits in behalf of democratic
policies. Not one thing has he re
commended, and not one thing was
done by his republican 59th con
gress, first session, that did notem
inat e from democratic brains or
was not stolen from democratic
platforms.
"Mr. President Roosevelt brags
about tbe first eeesion of the s9th
congress passing a generous naval
bill, carrying on tbe idea that there
mutt be a big navy in order to
maintain the Monroe doctrine and
other things. It did. It paseed a
bill carrying an appropriation for
millions of dollars in tbe interest of
the armor-plate trust, a few days
ago an independent, anti-trust armor
plate company made bids for those
steel vessels, and Mr. Roosevelt's
secretary of the navy refused to
give the contract to the lowest bid
der .(the anti-truet bidder), and
compelled them to divide with the
trusts.
"If there is any one thing that
ought to convince the people of this
country that the president of tbe
United States, with his full knowl
edge of the transaction, is trying
to play honest and consistent with
tne in in tne interest ot an econom
ical, just, conservative' acd decent
government, that transaction ought
to dissipate it. It shows him to be
in collusion with every trust man
agement in the United States.
"President Roosevelt already has
got the republican buck ague con
cerning the complexion of the next
House of representatives. He is
simply a badly scared man, and he
knows what a democratic House
means for him and bis rotten ad
ministration. That's why he is
getting so busy in this fight for the
iiouse. lie would ratner nave a
republican House that would pass
tbe same old resolutiocs reiusing to
investigate the postoffice depart
ment and tbe other departments of
the government than tell tbe truth
and bave a congress that would in
vestigate and let tbe country bave
the truth. The people ot tbe coun
try democrats end republicans
alike seem to have got it stuck in
to their crop that Me. Roosevelt is
infallible and can do no wrong;
that be is working honestly and
consistently in their interests, when
the real truth is tbat he is a fakir
and four-floeher and the deepest
scheming politican in all the
country."
St. Petersburg, Aug. . 25. Four
revolutionists arrived at M. Stoly-
pin s villa on Aptikaresy Island
at 3:20 p. m. today io a coach.
Iwo of them were die sed in tbe

Firemen who arrived on the scene

Tacan was chief of communication.

Spokane, Wash., Aug. 23. The
death of O. O. Peck, a millionaire
mine owner, in this city recalls the
fact tbat a donkey was declared by
Judge Norman Buck, of the Su
preme court of Idaho, to have shar
ed in the discovery of the $15,000,
000 Bunker Hill and Sullivan mine
and thereby secured for its owner a
one-third interest in this famous
property.
"From the evider.ee of witnesses,"
the court's opinion reads, "this
court is of the opinion that tbe
Bunker Hill mine was discovered
by Peck's jackass, Phil O'Rourke
and N. S. Kellogg. As plaintiff
owns tbe jackass be is entitled to
one-third interest in the Bunker
Hill claim and a one-fourth interest
in tbe Sullivan."
. There is much more to the opin
ion, but this ebows that the learned
jurist credited tbe donkey with a
full share in the discovery. Fur
thermore, Peck thereby obtained a
tille which he subsequently sold for
a fortune tbat enabled him to spend
the remainder of his days in afflu
ence. Stranger than any story in tbe
annals of mining is that of the dis
covery of the famous mine in the
neart ot tne (Jotur d Alene moun
tains in Central Idaho. Kellogg
was a prospector, who bad been
grubstaked by Cooper and Peck, 01
this city. One day be visited tbe
latter and exhibited a specimen of
ore that be bad found in the vicini
ty of what now constitutes the Ban
ker Hill and Sullivan mine. Peck
pronounced the ore worthless and de
clined to continue the partnership.
Kellogg fell in with O'Rourke, a
Colorado miner, who pronounced the
ore valuable and joined Kellogg in
a second expedition. This time
Harry Baer and Jacob Goetz, of
Spokane, grubstaked the pair.
The two men chanced upon tbe
Burro, which was owned by Peck,
but had been turned out to forage
fur itself until its owner had further
need of its services. Kellogg and
O'Rourke impressed it into service
as a pack animaJ, without notify
ing Peck. Within a month thej
bad discover-d the gieitest mine
the Coeur d'Alenes has ever re
vealed.
When Peck discovered tbat his
burro bad foimed one of the party
he brought suit to bave bis interest
established and the cturt sustained
his contention.
Parif, Aug. 23. Mr. Bryan has
come and gone. No American who
has been in Paris attracted so much
attention, or occaeicned rroie com
ment. Tbe interest tbat tbe French
population tcok in bis visit was re
matkable. Although be bad tele
graphed a week before for rooms at
the Hotel Continental, the only ac
commcdatioos available fur him
were three little rooms on tbe third
floor, wholly inadequate for a party
of six.
"This is like camping cut," said
Mr. Bryan to bis secretary. The
distinguished traveler was obliged
t3 bava bis bedroom transformed
into a study and reception room,
where he passed much time dictat
ing telegrams and receiving visitors,
wbile Mrs. Bryan drove about tbe
city and visied tbe great storee.
Wh n Mr. Brian's presence be
came known all visiting and lesi
dent America swooped down upon
the hotel. The clerks say that never
had any visitor such stacks of mail
and telegrams, ncr w as ever any
one so much asked for at the desk.
Mr. Bryan received numerous
letters begging him to stay a week
so that the American colony, irre
spective of politics, might organize
a dlnter and hear him talk. He
confessed tbat be was tempted to
break bis plans in view of the cor
diality of the request", but said that
it was necessary ior him to keep to
his programme, as important cor
respondence was following by
scheduled stages. Besides be was
most anxious to take the opportun
ity to see Spain, especially Grena-
