So the movement for freer trade

The exact position of republicans
is that an unjust tariff is crying out

German Captain Claimed Haytien
Vessel Was q Pirate.
The Crete-a- Pierrot Had Stopped . German
Steamer and This Offended ths Kaaser's
Representative-Crewo of Luckless
Ship Was saved.

Port-au-Prince, Hayti, Sept. S.-The
German gunboat Panther arrived
here September and received in
structions from the German govern
ment to capture the Firminist gun
boat Crete-a-Pierrot. She left imme-
diately for Gonaives, the seat of the
Firminist government. The Panther
found the Crete-a-Pierrot in the har-
Dor of Gonaives and the commander
of the German gunboat informed Adj
miral Killick, on the Crete-a-Pierrot,
that he must remove his crew and
surrender his vessel in five minutes.
Admiral Killick asked that this time
be extended to Is minutes. This re-
quest was granted on the condition
that the arms and ammunition on
board the Crete-a-Pierrot should be
abandoned when her crew left her.
The crew of the Crete-a-Pierrot
left that vessel amid great disorder.
At the end of Is minutes the Panther
sent a small boat carrying an officer
and 20 sailors who were to take pos
session of the Firminist gunboat.
When these men had arrived at q
point about 80 yards from the Crete
a-Pierrot flames were seen to break
out on board of her. She had been
fred by her crew before they left
here. The Panther then fired on the
Crete-a-Pierrot until she was com
pletely immersed. Thirty shots all
told were fired

ARoUsING OF THE PEOPLE.
Even by Members of the Pro-
lection Party.

Whatever may be the outcome Of
the present tariff agitation such res
olutions as were adopted in the Idaho
republican state convention show con-
clusively what the rank and file of the
people are thinking. Without serious
opposition the convention declared:
That many of the industries of this
country have outgrown their infancy and
the market of the world and is successfully
competing with the manufacturers of all
other countries. We therefore favor re-
delay which will place upon the free list
every article and product controlled by
any monopoly and such other articles and
products as are beyond the need of pro-
lection" Z.
This is a stronger declaration than
the one in the Iowa platform because
it was written later. 1t is an eXcep-
tionally clear and straightforward ex-
preston of the real feelings of the peo-
pie of the west, says the Des Moines
Reporter and Leader (rep.).
Such resolutions as these are to be
commended not only for their fearless
frankness, but also because they indi-
cate popular interest in the public
policies of the nation. 1t is right and
proper that the people should in this
connection exert an influence on party
The Kinsley graphic. [volume] (Kinsley, Kan.) 1890-1940, 1902-09-12

for the same products. They fail to
feel prosperous" merely because the
cost of living in this country has been
tremendously increased in order that
the food trusts should make exor-
bitant profits and pay millions in divi-
dends to a few multi-millionaire mo-
nopolists. They can only see and feel
that the Dingley tariff is mighty
good thing for the trusts and mighty
bad thing for the people.
Nor is there any popular apprehen-
sion of American trade being injured
by a revision of the tariff. American
merchants and manufacturers are I'M
1erselling their competitors in all the
markets of the world. They are more
than equal to holding their own in
American markets. They can, without
the slightest danger of loss, do with
out the protection" of a tariff whose
duties are necessarily paid by Ameri-
can consumers. They are very sure
that business will be healthier when
healthy competition is possible and
when individual enterprise and the
conduct of smaller business concerns
stand some show of profit. There is
no prosperity for the people in the
fact that few hundred trust mag
mates, out of a population of nearly
so. 900 900 souls, make fortunes every
year and proceed to spend the bulk of
those fortunes in foreign lands.
That form of craftsmanship
which would revise the Dingley tariff
10 the wholesome basis of tariff for
revenue only is heartily favored by
American public sentiment. This SEN
timent is so strong, indeed. as to make
tariff reform the leading issue OF the
day. Republican organs can no longer
brighten American voters by calling
them ''tariff-smashers" and business
killers The only business to be
killed is the monopoly business, and
the only tariff to be smashed is the IN
just Dingley tariff that has created
and maintained the monopoly business
at the sore cost of the people.
