In trade high prices are generally
Synonymous with prosperity. 1t
is impossible to get the consumer
to look at it that way, but, then,
the consumer doesn't enter into the
prosperity calculation. According
to Dun's review the present range
of values, based on the per capita
consumption of 800 quotations, is
higher than at any previous time
this year. and only about so cnnts
lower than the top point of 1900,

The increase in the cost of food
stuffs is credited chiefly to the fail
ure of the corn crop, although
meat also advanced to an abnor-

records of recent years.

necessaries that have risen in price,
however. The advance in the
price of clothing is Cited by the

CzoIuooz Sticks to His story.

Buffalo, Sept 9.-Czolgosz has made
no additional admissions to the police
omcials, and nothing that they have
learned from him has added toward
solution of the criminal side of the
case. He still insists that he alone
connived, planned and carried out the
crime, and that he alone must answer
for it. He admits that he attended
meetings at which Emma Goldman
spoke and where he and his fellow
anarchists discussed their propaganda
of murder, but steadfastly denies that
any of them had part in his plans.
His talks with them were fairly gen
eral, he says, and he did not divulge
to them any feature of his scheme to
come here and kill the president.

Protecting Roosevelt.

Buffalo, Sept. 9. - Although Vice
President Roosevelt does not know it,
the government has made more ade-
quate provision for his protection than
it did for President Mckinley. When
ever the vice president leaves the res.
idence of AnsIey Wilcox, where he is
staying, there are two or three secret
service men at hand to ward off any
attempt that might be made on his
life. The orders for the protection Of
tho vice president come from source
that is not disclosed. During his at
tendance at services In the First Pres
byterian church six secret service men
occupied seats within q short distance
of him. One of them took a seat on
the box of his carriage when he drove
away, and tho others followed in an
other carriage. Wherever he goes they
arc within few feet of him.

Hon. w. j. Bryan on tile as
sassinatiCn.

"The attempted assassination of
the President is shook to the en-
tire country, and he and his wife
are the recipients of universal
sympathy. The dispatches say
the shot was fired by an in
sane man, and it is hoped this is
true, for while it is terrible thing
for a president to be the victim of
a maniac, it would be even worse
for him to be fred upon by sane
person prompted by malice or re-
venge. In republic whore the
people elect their officials and can
remove them, there can be no
excuse for resort to violence.
flour presidents were in constant
fear of plots and oonspiracies we
would soon sink to the level of
of those nations in which foroe is

The SHOOTING of the President.
Enquirer, Saturday.


The resources of language seem
puny in any attempt to depict the
universal SORROW over the awful
tragedy at Buffalo yesterday. The
whole civilized world must shud-
der at the event. A just spirit of
retribution is helpless in the pres
euce of the work of awretoh whose
miserable life is the only expia-
ton that can be- offered. 1t seems
hard to resist the impression that
there must be some potent defect
in the construction of human af-
fairs when the millions of citizens
of this great reupblio, content in
peace and prosperity, and proud of
their institutions, can be deprived
of their chosen President, so re-
comfy elected to his high Office a
second time, by the hand of an as
sassin, utterly without cause, or
even what good citizenship and
sanity could construe as remote
pretext.
Respect for the office of Presi-
dent and public apprehension of
the Importance of order in the
affairs of government and society
are no less incentives to the COM
mon grief, under the dreadful Dir
oumstances, than the patriotism
and high private character of Will
liam Mckinley. No moro graoi-
GUS and polished man-no one
with whom personal contact was
better guarantee of affection and
admiration-has ever occupied the
position of Chief Executive. His
personality has heen a strong fac
tor in the affairs of the Govern
ment and the people. No one has
been more patient under criticism
or more jealous and persevering in
pursuit of what he believed to be
right after the crisis of decision had
been passed. Beginning as ayoung
unpretended young soldier of the
Union, and making a record in
the OWL War which WAS not less
glorious on account of the modest
rank he attained, he emerged from
the conflict to go forward in OWL
life as typical citizen of the re-
public. His life has been the full
attainment of that which is possible
under our unapproaohable system.

MR. BAsCocX EXPLAINS HIMSELF,

The Southwest, Of Linden. has a
long letter from Congressman BAD
cock in reference 10 his much talked
of bill to abolish the tariil on certain
lines Of trust-made goods. lie starts
out with the sentence: Il am an
ultra republican and protectionlst,
and have not changed my lifelong
views in the least His letter inn
plies that he regards protection as
having accomplished its purpose IN
relation to any article when it reach
es "A point that the article is produced
here cheaper than in other countries
and i'm eNCcs" Of the demands OF the
home market--m fact has become
al, article OF export On this the
DRY IL would appear 10 the common
reader that Mr.. Babcock must favor
removal of tariffs from most agrlcul-
mral products, ,of which We grow
more thut enough for home con-
sumption and export largely every
year. On this point Mr. Bahcoek
says: After many Of these indus
tries haze become giants such rs the
world has never before known, shall
we continue tariff on articles that
weld no revenue, need no protection,
and that in fact, like the products of
our farms, are articles of export"
Then he says significantly: II
maintain that IL Is 1t part of the pot
jcy Of protection 10 protect the con-
spmos" From this it is to be infer
red that Mr.. Bubcock will amend and
greatly extend his bill. That con-
sumers OF lumber manufactures may
be protected from the eNtortions OF
the lumber barons, made possible, in
the opinion of many, by the tariff on
lumber, from which the government
derives bat tritliug revenue, should
not that tariff come OFF, And. il Il
tariff on articles that yield no rev
euue,' and are ARTICLES of export
like tive products of our farms is
unnecessary and undesirable, then
his bill must consistently provide for
abolition of me tariff ON many arti-
clr~ outside of the IRON and steel
schedule.
