Populists like Knowles, Kennedy ana
Loucks have been making quite a hobby
in this campaign of the inequality in the
growth of wealth in eastern states as
compared with northwestern states and
charging the supposed evil up to repnb
lican legislation. Senator GallinRer, OF
New Hampshire, in his Sioux Falls
speech of Friday evening, took occasion
to refute this misrepresentation and
taking the same authority for his figures
which MIR. Knowles recently did at
Sioux Falls he showed c~onclusively how
the latter gentleman had juggled with
the figures. The same argument will
apply to some misstatements made from
the same source by Mfr. Kennedy here q
week go. The figures, when properly
compared, show that the east, against
which Mr. Knowles and Mr.. Kennedy
inveigh so bitterly get decidedly thu
worst OF it by comparison:
The increase OF wealth in the whole
six New England states, from 1880 to
1890 was not so large as in the single
state of Ohio in the same time, or OF In
diana, or of Illinois, or of Michigan. or
OF Wisconsin, or OF Minnesota, or OF
Iowa, or even OF Dakota. The increase
in the whole six New England states
during the ten years was from sA,978,-
100000 in 1880 to s5,522,00O,0o0-an I'D
dition of only S544, OOO, 900 while in the
same time the increase of wealth In the
two states of North and South Dakota
was s643, 100000 or an even hundred
millions greater than the increase in al
New England in the same time. And
the states of Illinois, Minnesota and
Nebraska had n greater increase Of
wealth In the same time than New York
and Pennsylvania. Compare he fal
northwest with the far northeast: Dur
ing the ten years from 1880 to 1890, the
single state of Montana gained o in
wealth than all the six New England
states-Idaho gained as much as all OF
them-Oregon twice as much-Colorado
four times as much - California nVe
times as much. And still in the face OF
these facts. Mr.. .Knowlasp has the effront-
cry TO delare that under policies of gov
eminent which have prevailed through
republican administration the east
has been sucking the financial blood oil
the west!
And again, take the increase in the pei
capita OF wealth: In 1880 the wealth oil
, the country for each inhabitant was
! 1910, and in 1890 it was S1,o30-an aver
. age increase of $l69. Twenty-eight Out
OF fifty of the states and territories ex
. ceeded this average, but only five o.
J these tw~enty-elght were in the east
) and the average per capita wealth il
! those five states was s1,287, while In tv'
> northwestern states the average pc
t capita wealth was 1852. In NeS
: : Hampshire the average wealth Of eacl
man, and child is only $685.
while 10 South Dakota it is 1890

The News has not a very high ad-
miration for David Bennett Hill per Sc,
but it credits him with being the ablest
man in his party in Congress at the
present day, and does rot desire to shut
its eyes to this fact simply because OF
his reputation as trickstec and a man
of little principle.
1t believes that Hill is in politics for
what he gets out Of politics, and so be-
lieving it would be an injustice to think
that Hill was not playing for high
stakes, and man playing for high
stakes is not going to be content with a
nickel limit, as would be the case were
his opposition to the income tax to be
overcome by amendments to the tariff
bill favorable to the Sugar Trust as GER
tain papers would have the public believe.
Senator Hill set the matter to rest pretty
effectually last night when he declared
without reservations of any sort that
mo matter what changes or concessions
were made in the tariff bill he would
not vote for it so long as the income tax
remained part of the bill, and that it
made no difference to him whether the
income tax was to remain in effect for n
month or 10 years. Any bill which
countenanced the income tax would not
receive his support"
Hill may be liar. but he is not a fool.
and THE News prefers to believe that
ne says what he means aud means what
he says until it Is proven otherwise.
The only hope of killing the Wilson
bill lies in the continued opposition of
David b. Hill and his friends to the bill.
and it may be good Republican politics
to damn Hill up and down, but IL is
hard To view il in that light. The
bridge that carries one safely over is
not TO be despised. 1t has served its
purpose and If Hill is to be the bridge
over which the protective system can
march across this pit the rest of the
Democracy is endeavonng to dig for il,
for goodness sake what is the use of
cussing him in the passage across. If
the devil is black don't say he is black
and green too. Mr.. Hill has made a
strong argument for protection. He has
announced his determination not to vote
ior the bill that destroys protec.
tion unless certain changes are made.
On Hill and his friends depend the fate
of the measure, and the Republicans who
are sitting mp nights to prove that David
Il. Hill Is fool and knave are certainly
not bsnefiting their party by so doing.

the advent of Psychometry and
Cleveland, was unattainable. The ad-
vice of friends has all the imperfections
Of their own idioscyncrasies, aggravated
by their inability TO understand our
nature in proportion as it differs from
their own. In whatever direction we
turn We find the prayers of Burns up-
answered, and kind heaven has not
enabled us to ''see our creditors before
they see us."t
Thus in Mr.. Cleveland, close study
of the man himself reveals the indenta-
tions OF his active, perceptive organs in
the supraorbital plate of the frontal
bone. Without entering too deeply into
the study Of cranioscopy, as derived
from the true organology of the brain,
this must be admitted by the earnest
and honest seekers after the Truth.
Thus is established directly and with
out human agency the relations which
the proposition as outlined at the be-
ginning foreshadowed, and it is only
on such an hypothesis as this can logi.
cally be explained the solution Of the
filling of vacuum by digging larger
hole. Thus the nation owes fully as
much to Mr.. Cleveland as to Psychom:
etry, and the loss of one without the
other would be a serious mishap to the
world.

Aldrich with falsehood yesterday. II
was the last resort of man caught in
the act, but who had cleverly avoided
breaking the letter while wilfully vio-
iating the spirit of the law.
The dignified rejoinder of the
senior Senator from Rhode
Island was characteristic of the man.
he overlooked the angry words of the
half-insane Senator and closed the Incl
dent by quietly remarking that ''in the
position the Senator from Indiana now
takes he speaks for no one but himself
Under other circumstances and condi-
tions / do not believe he would have
made the speech he has made"
The inference to be drawn is patent,
and the dignifed attitude assumed by
Senator Aldsich in disregarding the
rawlings Of such a man will commend
itself to the nation.
1t is to be hoped that a repetition of
such spectacle as that of yesterday
will be spared the country and Mr..
Turpie should remember the fate of
other men who have let their mouths run
away with them in the excitement of
cold tea and debate. Rhode Island is
prouder than ever of her distinguished
son, the acknowledged Republican leader
in the Senate.

THE death Of Senator Francis b.

that Maine has given to the nation,
having been born in Bath in 1926. A

The supreme Court has decided that eight
million dollars of fsbonds of the reorganzed
company were misappropriated and pointed
out the responsibility of t..e trust company to
the bondholders. IL was insisted that the
word trustee" meant something. and the
company is now directing every legal energy
to enforce the mortgage pledges made by the
manfpuators.
IL thus assures responsibility never before

hope for one result-the Insurance of safety to

In reply to question recently asked In

stated that orders had been issued to British
naval commanders in the Atlantic to cooper.
ate with the American navy in the destruction
of derelcts In accordance with these orders,
Vice-Admiral Sir John Hopkins has already
located one of the most dangerous derelicts In
West Indian waters. and he has courteously
sent word To our navy department that his
cruisers will destroy all others that can be dis
covered in the North Atlantic. This Is entire
ly satisfactory. 1t is now the duty OF the Ger
man. French, italian and other governments
to issue orders to their naval commanders in

issued by the British Admiralty and our own
