Take Your Medicine,

Our daily contemporary, among its
other dogmatic and Interchangeable and
old fogy rules, has one labeled: "En.
derse everything the st. Louis Re.
publican says" In view of the re-
suit of the late election we cordially
refer the following from old 1908 to
the contemporary of S05, or some an.
cient date: sit only proves that to be
influential and effective, newspapers,
as individuals, must be judicious,
sensible and somewhat dispassionate.
Mere vituperation and bawling can.
not help the cause in behalf of which
they are used, but may easily defeat
it."

Pig.Stickiug in Morocco.

The sport par excellence, however,
of the country is pigsticking, for which
are periodically organized
by Sir John Drummond Hay, the British
Minister to the Court of Morocco; and
owing to his kindness and hospitality, l
was enabled to see a good deal of this .
pastime. The other method of boz
hunting is by the battue system: t5althouet
being posted ed IN pts EfPRsl apse entirely of loca'
Importance, have demonstrated be.
yond doubt there is no reaction from
last falls condemnation Of the repub.
lican party. So far, the democracy
has not committed the widely desired
mistake, and the prospect is, that
with ordinary good luck it will not
fall into error previously to the next
presidential election.
The acts of the republicans in the
last congress, az a now be seen.
have not brought back lost confidence
in that party, and there is as little
probability of that's being done In
season to affect the next presidential
contest, as of the democrats forfeit
ing the present good opinion of the
country. 1t is extremely doubtful
also if the republican party has q
candidate able to reunite it, divided
as it is into the two hostile camps OF
Stalwartism and Liberalism.
Fortunately voters are more in
fuenced in casting their ballots by
fear of the republicans than by expec'
tation of the democracy. They know
that a democratic house with an adj.
verse senate and executive cannot dc
much for their relief. What over.
rides all else in their concern is the
fact that further grant of authority tt
republicans may and most probably
will increase their burdens. They
consider that much as a further re
duction Of taxation is needed, it cal
take place only as it may be tolerated
by republican bosses, ana hat mos
probably the only relief Legislation
shat will he endorsed bv thesa rll be
further ameudatir4 OF the internal
revenue
A great deal Of unnecessary con-
cern is being manifested in some sec
tons as to what is to be future demo
cratic policy, and many suppose it
will be indicated in the election of q
speaker for the next house. This
may or may not be the case. If the
house could successfully carry out q
policy of its own there might be
something in such a view; but as
things are, the choice of q protective
speaker and the appointment even OF
protective committees could not han
dicap the house as the adverse SEN
ate and executive do. Attempted
tariff reformation by the democracy
during the next congress is certain to
be abortive, and might prevent such
alteration of the internal revenue as
would remit to the states the articles
embraced in its taxation as sources
of income to the states, and be likely
to be we'll received by republicans
and be, whether endorsed by them o
not, acceptable to the new allies OF
the democracy and further strengthen
that party.

Those Trespass Trials.

The article i'm the TRIBUNE a few
weeks since, in regard to the trial of
certain trespassers, has been attracting
considerable attention throughout the
country, and numerous comments by
the press have been made about them.
To give the readers of the TRIBUNE an
idea of the tone of these, we reproduce
two, one from the Lumberman's Gazette
and the other from the Chicago Times.
The Gazette says:
There is something strangely inconsist-
ent i'm the fact that hOmesteader in
Cheboygan county is under bonds to ap-
pear in the United States court at De-
troit for having cut timber on his own
homestead before final completion Of his
title to the land on which he has resided
four years and made valuable improve
ments. This fact would not he so pass
ing strange if viewed separately and in
dependently of other facts. 1t is not
our purpose to attempt to screen the
man alluded to for violation OF law; but
if that law were fully carried out, there
are plenty Of men occupying power and
trust under the government to-day, who
would probably be passing their time In
the solitude of imprisonment, or per-
haps better, would be despOiled of their
ill-gOtten gains, and compelled to earn
an honest livelihood possibly by the
sweat of their brow, which method has
never been cOngenial to their tastes, or
| il it is they have never successfully
demonstrated the the fact. III et
The Chicago Times in an illusion to
this subject, says that gentlemen known
to be millionaires and popularity under
derstOOd to have made their fortunes by
plundering the public domain, are now
to be found in the senate and house of
representatives of the United States. and
are on the Republican side in the roll
call. One of these is from Wisconsin, and
he need not be named. Another Is from
Minnesota, and he need not be named
The designation of climber thieves" has
been applied to them among their neigh
bOrs, and their gorgeous wealth as lum-
bermen has been accounted for not only
without public prosecution, but with re.
newed hOnOrs Had the ChebOygan man
alluded to stolen timber from govern
ment lands to the amount OF millions
of dollars, instead of cutting a few sticks
from his own homestead, he would prob.
ably be candidate for an important
position under the government, instead
of being under bonds for appearance In
Detroit as a timber thief.
