Vt'henever the federal government. In the course of its nigh and splendid offices in behalf of the people, find It necessary to abridge the insolent ag gressiveness of some powerful per. son, firm or corporation, the wolf-cry of "paternalism" Is set ringing from one end of the domain to the other, and some adept commercial thief surges to the front with a specious plea in behalf of the combines and trusts and attempts to make it certain in the popular mind taat the country could not exist if it were not for the presence and methods of the alleged beneflcient business aggregations. We are tired of the dogma and Its heralds. We know the real value of superb and orderly classifications of business rules and their application to the im mense tasks of filling the markets and fixing the course of transporta tion, and all the vital expedients of perfect conduct of commercial affairs and are not deprecating anything of the sort. It Is the mask of duplicity and dishonor these people wear in discussing these great questions; their lying and chicanery. In the present ment they make, that we resist and deplore; the falseness, and adroit pleading, that mystifies an dmlsdl rects the popular conception of the Issues. And we take comfort In the conclusion that at last the people are becoming well enough posted to waive the beguiling stuff aside and bold fast to the real knowledge of the fraud. President Roosevelt has done more to expose the rottenness of the system In the few years he has been dealing with It, than any other man In the country ever developed before, and if this were the only base upon which this man's name Is sent to the people again, it will be over-whelmlngly suf ficient t ocarry him into the White House and fix bis place forever In the national heart Every man knows that the tenden cy of commercial life is toward the closest and minutest line of concen tration in all things, and that the great rule is fastening itself irrevo bly upon the business sense of the world, bat not along the route of spoliation, frauJ and robbery prac ticed by the dominant trusts, who grown fat upon the blood-pickings wrought upon the common people. The cry of "paternalism" will mean much more than some of them real ize at this day, if the law does not in tervene to stop the debauchery of the markets, and save the people from the withering effect of the present course of incalculable plundering. THE GENTLEMAN THIEF. The"plnk domino" burglar just cap tured In Portland turns out to be a college graduate, a refined and ele gant dllletante thief, who stole, not an abnormal taste for extraordinary for the sake of plunder, but to gratify excitement, and for a bizarre repu tation that few men possess outside some assinlne novel. We have been scanning this pub- llshed paragraph in the Portland pa ' pers and confess ourselves unable to EDITORIAL MLAD. 4 When the Republicans In the Miss ouri Legislature offered a resolution commendatory of President Roose velt's fight on trust's, the Democratic majority In the house took and con verted it into an endorsement of W.

I be worried, tired, fretful look changed to a peaceful nappy expression, and the lines of care disappeared altogether. Many people tell me about this in letters. They seem to think it a miracle. It is 'at. It's just the stomach working again. Here's a esse of this kind: "I suffered with my stomach for thirteen years. Nothing I ate seemed to digest. I slso had cbronio constipation, and was tired, dull, irritable and despondent nil the time. I found it difficult to attend to my duties as traction agent at this place."

A Cigar Wrapper Often Covers a Multitude of Sins You know quite well that there are many cigars sold for five cents that are very poor quality. They are sold on appearance. A fine appearing wrapper, a handsome gold band or a prettv box-lid may cover a multitude of sins, but it i3 the fitter, the inside of a cigar, that deter mines its smoking quality. Modern manufacture "exemplified in the American . Cigar Company's products has grown way above this un fortunate method of doing business and assures a cigar that is honest all through. The "Triangle A'T merit mark on a box of cigars means that every sprig of leaf in every cigar in the box was graded especially oy experts for that one brand, two years oef ore it was made ; that during this time the leaf has mellowed in great, clean warehouses in a perfect tem perature till all its finest qualities are brought to a point of perfection. These are some of the reasons why "Triangle A" cigars smoke with the fine mellow flavor that you thought was only to be found in expensive brands ; why every "Triangle A" cigar has an even flavor and aroma from (end to end; why every cigar of each "Triangle A" brand ' smokes just the same. "Triangle A" cigars cost you no more than the "mixed" cigars-though they are worth twice as much. Look for the "A" (Triangle A) when you buy cigars. " Triangle A " brands offer the widest obtainable range of choice, and absolutely dependable quality in whatever brand suits your taste. You'll never find a better brand to make the test with than The New CREMO Every box is now extra-wrapped in glassine paper, sealed at each ( end with the "Triangle A" in red. The cigars are kept clean, fresh and in perfect smoking condition until the box is opened.
