OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Let the Beer Tax AIone.-A few
weeks before the opening of congress
some one is bound to begin the talk of
reducing the tax on beer. If the mem
bers of congress would carry out the
wishes of the people who sent them to
Washington they would let the inter
nal revenue tax on beer remain where
it is. Beer is luxury. Our prohibi-
zionist friends may dispute this state
ment, but what we mean is this, that
beer is a commodity men do not have
to buy unless they so desire. 1t is not
a necessity. Therefore tax that rails
es the price of beer hurts no one, is
not onerous, because man who OBJ
jects to paying it in the increased
price of beer can let it alone and he
pays no tax.
1t is true that the surplus of reve.
nue. over expenditures is causing the
national government a great deal OF
worry and reduction in taxes Is un,
doubtedly advisable, but said reduc
ton should be made upon import du
ties in return for trade concessions
that will enlarge and extend the mar
kets for American products abroad. Il
taxes are. to be reduced let them be

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

1t is to be observed that President
Roosevelt has had no occasion so far
to modify or change any Of his views
that We're expressed since his induc-
has been charged in the past with a
certain kind of impulsiveness but it is
to be noted that the expressions that
were liable to that charge, have all re-
lated to non-essentials; in all matters
of public policy Mr.. Roosevelt has ex-
pressed himself with marked delibera-
ton and cautious reserve. In the
light of these facts, the address made
by Mr.. Roosevelt at ST. Paul, which
was his last public speech, becomes
important and of vital interest. , 1t was
on the same lines of the last speech
made by Mr.. Mckinley at Buffalo, and
in marked accord with the views eX.
pressed by the late President. There
seems to be no doubt that these two
men, the highest officers in the land,
had agreed upon these expressions.
Mr.. Roosevelt, at St. Paul, referred
4 as follows to the labor and trust ques
tons:
ut is not only highly desirable, Blu:
necessary, that there should be legls'
lation which shall carefully shield the
interests of wage earners and which
shall discriminate in favor of the hon
est and humane employer by remov
| ing the disadvantage under which he
stands when compared with unscrupu
lous competitors who have no con
| science and will do right only under
fear of punishment. Nor can legisla
ton stop only with what are termed
labor questions. The vast individual
and corporate fortunes, the vast com
binations of capital which have mark
ed the development of our industrial
system create new conditions ant
necessitate change from the old at
titude of the state and the nation to
ward property
This is what he said at the SAM
time and place on the question of reel
procity:
I'VE must continue the policy tina
has been SO brilliantly successful il
the past, and so shape our economic
system as to give every advantage t
the skill, energy and intelligence o
our farmers, manufacturers and wage
workers, and yet we must also remem
Der, in dealing with other nations
that benefits must be given where ben
efts are sought. 1t is not possible t,
dogmatize as to the exact way of al
tanning this end, for the exact condi
lions cannot be foretold. In the lonl
run one of our prime needs is stabil
ity and continuity of economic policy
and yet through treaty or by direc
legislation it may at least, in certain
cases, be advantageous to supplement

MR.. wALsH's PREDICTIONS.

The Kansas City Star of November
7 has an editorial on "Missouri's Pres
idential Timber in which it says:
Anything that the observing, pene-
trating and amiable Mr.. Charles A.
Walsh chooses to say of national poll
tics is interesting. AS secretary OF the
democratic national committee he is
in a position to keep track of political
sentiment in general and party symp-
toms in particular. He sees the hand
of David B. Hill in the defeat of Tam
many, and regards Hills elimination
as a Presidential possibility complete
and final. Upon this assumption he
is confident that the next nominee OF
the democratic party will be a western
man, and believes that he will be a
Missourian. Mr.. Walsh prefers not to
name the man whom he regards as
most likely to receive the high honor
The long and intimate committee as,
ISOLATION of Mr. Walsh and eX-Gover-
nor William J. Stone leads to the infer.
ence that he may have the vice chair
man of the national committee in mind
as first choice. This inference is
strengthened by the fact that Mr.
Walsh insists that free coinage of sill
yer at the old ratio shall be embodied
in the next platform. 1t is true thai
Stone is lodging the ratio question o
late, but he has been careful not u
commit himself to a new one. Ser
iously, however, William ]. Stone
would not make strong Presidential
candidate. He is a thorough politi
clan, with all the tricks of the trade
legitimate and irregular-at his com
mand. He is known as bein.
Smooth" but he lacks the board sta
bility, the conservative temper and thu
personal dignity that are essential t.
good President aLstimber. He is no
the kind of man to create spontan
eous and widespread enthusiasm
among the people of the whole countr.
and among the voters of all classes.
The Star goes on to observe tina
the most commanding figure in Mis-
souri, democratic ranks is eX-Governo
Francis, but it argues that it is hardl
likely that Mr.. Walsh has Mr. Franco
in mind as the winning man.
1t is astonishing that the Star 0
Mr.. Walsh should have any democra
in mind for the Presidency just now
The democrats have scarcely had tim
to recover their breath since the grea
defeat of last Tuesday.

PEOPLES PULPIT.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
Ottumwa, Nov. 1:

OttumWa, Nov. II.
Ed. Courier:-I see by Courier of
the 9th inst our good Charley Walsh
is making some prophecies as regards
the next democratic candidate for
President. He (Charley) says the
nominee will be from Missouri. Now
if Charley has any good friends in
Missouri he should know better by this
time than to try to get them into trou-
BILE like that will pose with Char
ley, as prophet and predict that his
Missourian would have to beat Teddy
Roosevelt, and that would be next to
impossible for Missouri man or any
other man to do. Now if you will ask
Tom Phillips, if it is fair to hit man
when he is down he would tell you no,
but. wouldn't it be merciful to admon-
ish him to not NEEDLE any more with
a fellow that could knock him out in
less than one-half of the first round,
if he should attempt to fight again.
This is about the size of the case now
in hand. How can the democrats eX-

Ilicans have beaten man like Tom

The democrats are not to be gotten

the western democracy and he is per
haps as popular in the east as Davic

our present policy by system of reci-

We can very well anticipate the
kind of message that President
Roosevelt will address to congress at
its approaching session. There will be
no surprises; no startling statements
or new departures, but a plain, bust,
ness-like document, and as nearly like
that which Mr. Mckinley would have
written as is possible in the case OF
two men Of intellectual ability holding
the same views, but with different
powers of expression.

What "uncIe BiiIv Saw in Court.

CHANGED to step into the district
court room this morning during the
hours the court was dispatching morn
ing business.-I saw a fine looking
promising young woman beside her
lawyer who was using his best efforts
to have the court cancel and annul the
bonds of matrimony that bound her to
her husband and father of a lovely
little girl about five years DID, who in
her childish way and pure tone of
voice told the Judge she had seen her
father choke and assault her mother
Then following this l saw an older
woman of middle age looking care-worn
and sad with bright looking lad be-
side her whom she said WIS her son
who was II years old and was incorrig-
ible, idle and had committed petty lar
ceny-would not work or mind his
mother, ETC. The boy came to the
stand and said that home was not
pleasant for him, that his step-father
"sauced" him and didn't treat him
kindly. After due consideration the
learned judge ordered the lad sent to
the reform school-which appeared to
be for the best interests of the lad.
After hearing the foregoing began
to think-W What, if anything, can be
ldone to teach the people the ethics of

are who do not understand how to
properly govern and control their chill
dren. How many husbands there are
who do not understand how to treat
their wives and who trample upon tle
feelings and heart strings of those
they have pledged to cherish and sup
port. Can we organize society to
especially look after the betterment of
the home? 1t seems so cruel, for what
ought to be happy homes-are in real
