The London Daily Mail says
that J. Pierpont Morgan is find
ing some difficulty in getting the
famous painting, Duchess Of
Devonshire,' into the United
States. As the reputed price paid
was one hundred and fifty thous-
and dollars, the tariff on it would
be about thirty thousand. Mr..
Morgan ought not to be afraid of
little tax like that. He did what
he could to elect the republican
ticket in '96 and 1900, and. double
that rate is collected on the cloth
ing and food used by the people.

The New York Journal, the
Chicago American, and the San
Francisco Examiner-have, since
the assassination, been made
objects of attack by all the re-

intends to continue his crusade
against monopolistic wealth and

States be extended to them and

legal claim to the protection of

need no other warning than that
of the supreme court-that the
constitution was made for the
states, and not for the barbarians

Why should their pauper-labor

with Wyoming and Montana and

The Helena Independent says:
"Arizona and New Mexico are
rather inclined to boast of their
prosperity, because they hope to
be admitted to the union. They
do not see the danger that threat

"If the products of Arizona and

those of the civilized states, there
will then be no question that the
inferior races inhabiting those

the people of this country a few
years ago, from his seat in the
senate, that New Mexico was
populated by blanketed savages.

VESTS TRIBUTE TorHE DOG.

One of the most eloquent tri-
butes ever paid to the dog was
delivered by Senator Vest, of
Missouri, some years ago. He
was attending court in country
town, and while waiting for the
trial of case in which he was
interested was urged by the at
torneys in dog case to help
them. Voluminous evidence was
introduced to show that the de-
fendant had shot the dog in
malice, while other evidence went
to show that the dog had attack
ed defendant. Vest took no part
in the trial and was not disposed
to speak. The attorneys, how
ever, urged him to speak. Being
thus urged he arose, scanned the
face of each juryman for moment,
and said:
Gentlemen of the Jury: The
best friend a man has in the
world may turn against him and
become his enemy. His son or
daughter that he has reared with
loving care may prove ungrateful.
Those who are nearest and dear
est to us, those whom we trust
with our happiness and our good
name, may become traitors to
their faith. The money that a
man has he may lose. 1t flies
away from him, perhaps when he
needs it most. A mans reputa-
tion may be sacrificed in mo-
ment of ill-considered action.
The people who are prone to fall
on their knees to do us honor
when success is with us may be
the first 20 throw the stone of
malice when failure settles it's
cloud upon our heads. The one

man can have in this selfish world
