1t will he a wonder if Tariff re-
vision can be kept in the background
at the next session of Congess, for
the opposition is run ashore for an
issue and there are several CONNER
cial treaties that, Of course, are
intimately connected with the Tariff
and will demand changes or modi-
fcations of the Tariff If a Tariff
dispute and long discussion can be
avoided it will distinctly be-. a
blessing to trade as certainly as either
will paralyze a number Of indust-
ries.
While the country is doing sc
well nothing could be more unfort'
innate than to arouse doubt as to the
Tariff. While a Tariff is hanging
in the balance no importer will move
a hand to grope in the dark, but
suspend operations until the rates
he is to pay are fixed. Imperialism
and expansion being dead and buried,
the plight of the opposition is des-
perate, and as it's mission is to cause
mischief it is too much to expect that
such an opportunity to injure the
business interests of the country
will be allowed to pass.-New Lond-

William Jennings Bryan's Labor
Day advice to the workingmen to
vote the right ticket is indisputa-
BILE sound. He has demonstrated at
different times in the past, however,
that he would not be a safe guide to
point out the ticket which is right.
Not only workingmen, but farmers
and business men and professional
men, and electors in general,
should vote the right ticket The
interest in the fright ticket and
in getting it elected is the interest
of the whole people-it is the in
terest not of any particular class,
but of all GLASSES. MI. Bryan didn t
say this. The readiness Of Mr..
Bryan to attempt to divide the peo-
pie politically on class lines is one of

SINKING SHIPS BOILERS.


English Authorities Say the Ships Es-

sold-laden steamship Islander of the
Pacific coast of North America re-

down. the boilers exploded. Experts
in marine engineering say that such
an occurrence is highly improbable, If
not actually impossible. The super

said: II do not believe it Is possible
Tor an explosion to occur under circum-

sinking of the Islander. What Is often
thought to be an explosion is the eff

AT WORK.

The Washington Evening Star of No

lAfion to Mr.. Mondell's work:
A bill extending the present Chinese
years will be introduced in the house
Of representatives by Representative
Mondell of Wyoming. Monday. Mr..

are very much in earnest on this ques-
ton. and it will be his aim to see that
legislation looking to the prevention
Of a flood Of Monaghan labor to our
shores Is enacted speedily by the Fifty
seventh congress.
Some minor amendments to the pres
ent law may be made in the bill con-
tinuing it in effect, but these amend
ments will simply be remedies in the
administrative features of that law in,
tended to make it more effective.
Mr.. Mondell will also work hard to
have the government build reservoirs

walton of the waters that they may be
used for irrigation purposes. It is mis-
belief hat our own resources should
be cultivated and developed; that the
tariff should be allowed complete
respite from change or agita.
ton, and that the proposition to open
Il markets tt Cuban sugar should be
dealt with summarily in a negative
manner.
ITO allow Cuban ray sugar to come
into this country free from the two
cents per pound duty would be to make
a present 10 Cuban planters of S160 an
acre annually on their sugar producing
land. 1t would not only mean this. but
1t would at the same time mean the
complete destruction Of our own beet
and cane sugar industries"
MI. Mondell is not surprised at the
demands being made from Cuba in this
respect by reason of the great profit it
means to them.
Discussing the subject of irrigation,
he said that outside Of the arid land
states, the people seemed to have a
wrong impression of what was really
wanted of the government in that di
rection.
I'VE do not want the government tC
iyrigate the land" he continued, al
we want is that it shall conserve the
waters hat would otherwise go tc
waste, in the natural reservoirs that
exist in our great western mountain
ranges. When this is done, the people
under proper state control, will attend
to the distribution of these waters
What the result would be has offer
been stated. The wonderful produc
tive quality of these arid lands under
proper irrigation conditions is almost
too enormous to be believed by those
not familiar with the actual demonstra
TONS"
1t seems now to be the intention OF
western representatives to get togeth'
er on this matter and make an appeal
for a certain sum for each state inter
ested in the subject of irrigation.

Since the Sampson-Schley controver-
sy has grown acute again there has
been considerable reference to Proctor
Knots rabbit story in connection
with the credit for the victory at San
tiago. 1t is here reproduced: Ex-Gov.
Proctor Knott and John Yerkes were
discussing the claims of Sampson and
Schley to the credit of smashing Ger
vera at Santiago. Mr.. Yerkes took
the ground that all the honor of that
memorable conflict belonged to Ad-
miral Sampson, and was inclined to
entirely ignore Commodore Schley's
part in the affair. The governor lis
tened until his companion had fin
ished. and then with that characterts-
tic twinkle in his eye said: my dear
sir. 1t is exceedingly gratifying to me
to hear you take the position you have
in the matter. 1t is like a balm to
my conscience and settles a point that
has worried me many a day. l was
walking through the woods once with
a boy friend of mine when we say a
rabbit run into a sinkhole. We stood
around the hole awhile; then / told
the boy to keep watch while I went tc
get some fire to smoke the rabbit out
