The st. Paul Pioneer Press is a
staunch republican paper. But it is
alarmed regarding trusts. 1t has
stood for high protection for 10, these
many years! but at last it has awakened.
1t declares the first duty of the next
congress is to abolish protection on
the products of any industry which has
been organized into trust. However,
the republican party will have to be
reorganized and find new leaders be
fore such action is taken. just i'm
agine Pres dent Mckinley sanctioning
any move that would eliminate the
theory of protection from party that
he leads. 1t would be like removing
his heart from his body.

DOES NOT CLAIM A CURE.
But DR.. Bra Thinks His Discovery Is a
Valuable One.


New YORK, April ia dispatch
to the Herald from Paris says: DR..
Bra, dlscoverer of the cancer microbe
in an interview confirms the statement
that he has succeeded in isolating the
parasite which is invariably present
in cancerous growths. 1t is a fungoid
of the ascomycetes family, and certain
ly the active agent of cancer.
Innoculation of animals with a cul.
tivation produced cancerous tumors,
from which the parasite was again iso'
lated.
DR.. Bra declines to hold out prema-
ture hopes for curative treatment
for cancer.

An exchange commenting upon the
killing OF a man who was run over by
train while he was walking on a rail-
road trestle remarks that this is proof
that 1.-THE state should COMPEL railroad
companies to construct walks for foot
men along all tresties." This would
be very great expense, to railroad
companies, and would be entirely
unjustfed Railroad tracks are not
public highways; they are built es-
pecially for trains to run over and not
for pedestrians to walk on. In fact a
pedestrian who uses track for a path
on which to travel does so a. his own
peril. 1t is all right to pass laws
requiring railroad companies to con.
struct good and safe crossings, but to
compell them to build walks along
their tracks so that people could use
them for promenades would be carry
ing authority little too far.

STEPHEN J. FIELD.

The death of Justice Stephen ].
Field removes one of the ren who
have helped make history for this ma
tion. Judge Field had been in public
life half century, having come to
California so years ago and at one Q
entered with spirit into public af-
fairs in that then comparative wilder
ness. Being man of sterling worth
he soon arose above mediocracy. His
abilities were readily recognized and
he was elevated to the supreme court
of California and afterwards the
supreme court of the United
States, where he served longer
term tnan any of his prede-
cessors. While on the supreme bench
he wrote $40 opinions, and during his
other judicial services wrote 422 opin-
ions. making total of 1912 cases de-
cided by him while on the different
benches. His was indeed we'll spent
life. it having been devoted to the
service of .Eis country. and his name
will 60 down in history as one of the
sblest jurIsrs of tn nation.

Died at His Bench.

TACOMA, April 1I.-William Cole
IA years of age, a shoemaker, died
suddenly this afternoon at his bench
while at work on pair of shoes for a
customer, who was waiting. He was
subject to heart disease. but persisted
in keeping at work.
Some Washington correspondents
are trying to make it appear that
Great Britain is anxious to trade her
West India possession for the Philip-
pines. Such an idea is wild. Great
Britain is not hunting for such "bar-
gains" as the Philippines in their
present state. Whenever Uncle Sam
has whipped the Filipinos into subjec-
ton ard can give clear title to the
islands, the British government might
talk trade, but at present it is not in
the market. Few governments but
ours would buy war.

Fifty Thousand Troops Will he Required
to Crush the Rebellion.
NEW YORK, April IA dispatch
to the World from Manila says:
While it is probable that there is an
end to the big engagements in the
Philippines between the Americans
and the Filipinos, the war is not at an
end by any means. 1t is the universal
opinion among army men here that it
will require the presence of 5000
American troops to occupy the terri
tory that has been taken, and to keep
open communication among the
islands.
General Lawton's advance promises
to meet with a harassing resistance.
Trenches are built by the enemy from
town to town. On all sides the rebels
are in nightly communication by
means of signal fires. They avoid
being caught in trap, and are quick
to harass the flank.
Since March 25, the enemy's losses
have not heen more than double ours.
Our kindness to the rebel wounded
and prisoner, does not allay their dog
ged enmity. Only a small portion
of the population of the north have
returned to their homes. Only the
diseased and aged remain in Santa
Cruz.
Aguinaldo is reported to be in San
Fernando, and still in absolute charge
of the defense of the new capital and
of Calumpit.

In speaking with Watermaster j.
O. Pace in regard to the water
supply that gentleman informed US
that il is not nearly so abundant
as it was a year ago. He also in
formed us that one thing that
caused such q length of time to
elapse between turns in the Union
canal was the fact that the Board
had rented considerable water
that bad heretofore not been used.
He said it was true that the man
agemcnt made a mistake in plac
ing the water on three hours to
the share but when it was done it
was supposed thatthe water would
be about the same as last year,
but as soon as it was discovered
that the water was rapidly falling
he says they repaired the error as
far as lay in their power.

FIELD and Farm believes that
when the universal trust bas been
formed the dictum will be fewer
mouths to feed and more hands to
furnish the provender, and work
ing men will be sent out to till the
land or starve. This is the direct
result Of high tariff and the gold
standard. When the universal
trnst becomes reality, (and we
are drifting fast towards the reali-
zation) ten men will be employed
where hundred is employed 70

who are trying to down it, but
gives them warning that they will
not succeed. The Tribune has
labored night and day for years TO
keep the hide whole that covers

tion that it has done more for the

year than its enemies have done
combined in ten. A newspaper in
a community is a benefit and a

appreciate. Through its efforts
more people are inudced TO ocome to

other combined efforts, and the
man who will do it an injury to
