A THlEvING GAME.

The lengths of absurdity to which
hidebound partisanship drags some
men and newspapers, is exemplified
by the following from the Helena
Record:
"The few free traGers who assert
that it is necessary, in order to con-
troll the trusts of this country to
remove the tariff duties from all arti.
cles manufactured by the trusts, would
make the remedy worse than the dis
ease. They would, if they had their
way, destroy the greatest industries in
this country. for the sake of "regulat-
ing" them. If congress should enact
any such unwise law and tear down
the tariff schedules which protect not
only the great steel trust but also all
the smaller concerns in the country,
from the competition of the foreign
combines, it would mean disaster to
the larger combinations and utter ruin
for the smaller concerns. The pro-
ducts of the pauper labor combines in
England. France. Germany and Bel
GUM would be thrown upon our mar
kets. which would be monopolized by
them. with perhaps competition from
our largest combinations"
There is scarcely an issue Of the
Record or any other republican news.
paper these days but what gives the
lie direct in its news columns to such
palpable editorial rot as the above.
1t is supremacy ridiculous to read in
the news columns nf these same pa
pers how American products of all
kinds are competing successfully in
the markets of the world with all
corners, and then to turn to the edi-
torial columns, which are supposed
to represent the brains of a newspa-
per, and see it gravely asserted that
were the American protective tariff
removed, the products of the pauper
labor combines in England, France,
Germany and Belgium would be
thrown upon our markets, which
would be monopolized by them"
The Record insults every intelligent
reader it has by such statements. It
assumes that its readers cannot tell
the difference between black and
white. 1t says, in effect, that Amer
lean products can compete with "the
products of the pauper labor com
bines of England, France, Germany
and Belgium" on their own ground
but are unable to do so in America.
The truth is that the protective
tariff by excluding foreign competition
enables the protected manufacturer t
holdup the American farmer for $15(
for binder, while he sells the same
machine to the foreign farmer fol
800, in addition to paying transporta
ton charges. The protective tarif
holds the consumer while the manu-
facturer rObs him, and the RecOrt
looks on and defends the crime be
cause it shares in the proceeds.

MOST people think that catarrh is o
1YA disease confined to the head and
nose. Nothing is farther from the truth.
II may be that the nose and throat IS the
oftenest affected by catarrh, but If this
Is so it is so only because these parts are
more exposed TO the yicissitudes Of the
climate than the other parts of the body.
Every organ, every duet, every cavity
of the human body is liable TO catarrh.
A multitude of ailments depend on ca
tarrh. This Is true winter and summer.
Catarrh causes many cases Of chronic
disease, where the victim has not the
slightest suspicion that catarrh has
anything to do withit.

terprise were properly managed il
ought 10 prove a source OF almost
incalculable wealth TO the owners.
The lake is about 6ve miles long
and three miles vide. The asphalt
taken from it is said to be the best
and purest in the world. It's re-
fined BY heating it until the water
evaporates, there being no scum,
dirt or foreign matter in it. The
supply is inexhaustible, and the
lake, as described by one who has
seen it, "is d huge, black sea oi
wealth, stretching out as far as the
eye can reach" The excavations
fill up as rapidly as the workmen
leave them, and mo amount OF rea-
sonable work in taking out asphalt
can produce a visible diminution
OF the supply. IL is a we'll Of
wealth that never overAows and is
always filed to the brim. It's up
coming is wrapped IN mystery, its
birth time is unknown Il is i'm
possible to estimate its actual value
as a merchantable commodity, and
to say at hazard that it is worth
hundreds oil billions OF dollars IS
not putting the figures too"
Very little has been heard oflate
OF the dispute between the Vene-
zuelan Government and the Amer
lean syndicate which claims ex-
elusive rights to take asphalt from
this lake. The United States Gov.
eminent threatened to intervene a
few weeks ago to prevent the eject.
ment Of the syndicate from its con-
cession, but subsequently decided
that it had no right to interfere.
A lake Of asphalt which is worth
hundreds Of billions Of dollars" IS
amore valuable possession than all
the gold and diamond mines OF the
world, il there shou Id be a steady
and general demand for asphalt,
No wonder the syndicate fell out
about its ownership, or that the
Venezuelan Government should
claim the right to cancel all
concessions and eject those who
were taking asphalt from the
lake. On the assumption that
the value Of the deposit is not
over estimated Vene zuela is the
richest country in the world. All
the cotton, wheat and tobacco
made in the United States since
the War Of the Revolution scarcely
scld for such a sum as the amount
vaguely described as hundreds Of
billions OF dollars The gold
mines oil South Africa and the
Yukon are insignificant wealth
producers compared with the

not surprising that the Venezue-
lans should seek to con6scate il.
