NO CAUSE FOR FEAR.

While not favcring the state eleva-
tor scheme, the Waterville AdUance
looks upon the decision of the SUI
preme court with the ''gravest appre-
tensions for the safety of our institu-
tions." 1.-THE supreme court" it says,
"thus assumes the role Of dictator
ship, and no matter how popular the
measure might have been, no matter
how unanimously enacted, no matter
how anxious the great majority were
to try such law, one judge, or three
at best, has the power to say that the
great majority shall not rule, and thus
to repeatedly thwart the universally
expressed desires of the greatest rec
ognized authority (the majority, is
dangerous to a free, liberty-loviug
people," If the decision was not in
line with the constitution, there
might be some foundation for such
feeling. But when it follows the path
marked out by the constitution, there
can be no cause for such fears. That
instrument is wholly within the hands
of the people, and whenever they de-
sire to have it changed they can so
change it Our courts have kept re-
markably clear from wild vagaries
which have from time to time foated
over the country. If the courts wan
der away from the charter of the peo-
pies liberties, the people have the
power of correction in their own
hands by the election of judges who
will interpret the laws in accordance
with it. There is no cause for grave
ap, rehension for the safety of our in
stitutions from a decision based upon
law, justice, and good common sense,
as this one is, because it really pro-
tects the rights of the people and
keeps the arm of the government
within the. borders of its-legitimate
channel.

FAIL TO AGREE.

In his message to the legislature
which he convoked in special session,
Gov. Waite, of Colorado, pictured how
that state was suffering terribly from
the shrinkage of values and the de-
preston of business, and from misery
everywhere. 1t was on the same level
with the howl emitted by some OF
the Populist leaders there while ago.
Commenting upon it the Minneapolis
Journal says:
In striking contrast to the state
ment of Waite and the POpulist COM
mittee, appear the business state
ments for Colorado covering the year
1893 published in the Denver papers.
They show that the Colorado mines
produced S6,97l more ounces OF gold
and 1862, 1O4 more ounces of silver ID
1898 than in the previous year, and
that the copper production exceeded
that of 1892 by S53, 033 pounds, while
there was II per cent increase IL the
coal output and over 80 per cent in
iron. The gain in the gold output
fully compensated for the lost caused
by the heavy depreciation of silver
The state received larger revenue
from the minerals than ever before,
and did better agriculturally, too, the
potato crop returning over million
dollars to one district Of the state
The record of Colorado's business veal
shows, beyond doubt, that the only
injury accruing to Colorado is that
caused nv the incendiaTV and anarCh
istic utterances of Gov. Waite ano
the Populists, whose declaration Of
intentions has tendency to war;
capital against investment in a state
whose governing power is professedly
hostile to capital and intent upor
methods which, effectuated, woult
seriously impair the credit of thu
state.

THOSE TARIFF BURDENS.

The burden of the talk Of the
Democratic advocates of tariff reform
has been to relieve the burden of taxa
tiOn from the masses. They have
told how the 'robber tariff" made
life one constant grind for the work
ingman, and that if they were placed
in power how they would remove the
taxes upon the articles he needs, and
place them upon those which only the
well-to-do can afford. They finally
succeeded in getting into power and
framed the Wilson bill, which they
tell the public is step toward reliev-
ing the poor Of these Ubiquitous bur-
dens. And how are they relieved?
Congressman Dlngley in his speech
upon the measure shows how they
have kept this promise, and it con-
forms well with the usual consistency
of Democracy, which for years has
said one thing end done another. Mr.
Dingley said:
l. hhu q vi dUOuU
millions in duties on imported liquors.
Havana and other foreign cigars and
leaf tobacco. silks and laces and en-
broideries, kid gloves, ostrich feathers,
ETC., articles of luxury or voluntary
use consumed E,ainly b, the we'll to
do. The poor people must be greatly
relieved at such reductions. OF the
twenty-five millions of revenue sur
rendered in reduced duties on i'm
ported manufactures of WOOL more
than half is Oh fine goods, consumed
by men OF med,is, who want some
thing English, you know" and who
are willing to pay for it. The same is
true of half of the three millions of
revenue surrendered on imported fine
cOttonS and many other goods. Not
far from thirty millions of duties
are surrendered on imported luXuries
OF articles Of voluntary use. Then
about six millions of revenue are sur
rendered by reduction of the duty
on tin plate at cent per pound, which
is now in large part practically paid
by the Welsh manufacturer. This is
shown by the fact that when the
duty on tin plate was raised 2-10th
cents per pound by the tariff of 1890,
and the tin plate industry established
here by that protection, the Welsh
manufacturers so far reduced their
price to hold our markets that tin
plate did not advance here quarter
of a cent a pound above the average
price from 1883 to 1881 In this case
it was clearly the foreigner that prac-
tically paid nearly all the tax"

All of the county offices, including

bers Of the county board, must be
fiile1 at next falls election, and
already plans are being Ibid and
wires pulled by anxious aspirants for
the different offices, although on the
outside surface everything is quiet
and serene. Thus far, the office of
sheriff seems TO be the one most
sought after, to judge from the var
ious reports in circulation. One Of
these rumors credits Mr.. Bowen with
a desire to step into Sheriff GlYnn's
shoes. Though acting as deputy un-
der Democratic sheriff, Mr.. Bowen
is Republican, and he has to his
credit an ample experience in theoffice.
But Mr.. Glynn is by no means dis
posed to lay down his position with
out hard struggle. He may have
opposition in his own party, as he is
now serving his second term and has
no claims on the party on that score.
Henry RObel was induced to with
draw from the field two years ago on
the strength, of certain promises, it is
said, and III fheSe are carried ont

he could lay eff Glynn out in a
fair fight. Ben Williams is another
of those who are said to be
laying the wires to secure the Repub-
lican nomination. He was a candi-
date two years ago, but may develop
more strength this year, as he is said
to be popular in his sectioa OF the

IT is curious how all the free trade
Democrats revere the name of Jack
son when he was one of the stiffest
protectinnists of his day. Henry
Watterson who stands representa-
tiveaf the earnest free traders of the
country, was loud in his praise Of
Jackson in his speech the other day
in celebrating "Old Hickory's" mem
! ory In Sra.sing Cleveland ald Car
Isle he said, ''If we could make them
over into one man we would have a
Jackson. "Yet this Jackson whom Mr..
Watterson covers with praise was a
strong protectionist, and in his run
for the presidency in 1882 stood upon
platform of which the following
resolution formed part:
"REsOLvED, That an adequate
protection of industry is indispensa,
BILE to the prosperity of the country.
and that an abandonment of the
policy at this period would be attend
ed with consequences serious to the
| best interests of this ration"
The free traders try to break the
force of Jackson teachings by stating
that were be alive today he would be
free trade leader. But this is q
mere matter of speculation, and the
protectionists have just as good
right to the claim, and even better
that if alive he would favor the
American policy, for in all thing:
