Possibly in the opinion of extreme feder-
alists the United States might constitu-
tionally embark on this socialistic enter
prise, but certainly not in harmony with
the views of Jefferson, Madison Monroe
jackson or any other Democratic Presi-
dent of the United States down to James
Buchanan and Grover Cleveland.
That is true, although it comes from q
political enemy. The Federalism OF
Adams and Hamilton might have advo-
Gated such a plan but their Democratic
successors of those or later days would
not have done so.

League, whose headquarters Is in New
York. 1t speaks for ITSELF
''The tariff is the leading issue in the
Congressional campaign which closes in
"The tariff will be the leading issue.
almost the only issue, in the Presidential
campaign of 1904.
"The Republican Party is divided on
the tariff question. This fact is to be de
plored but not concealed 1t Is better to
face the truth than to dodge it.
If the present division within the Re-
publican Party continues for the next
two years the Republican Party Will not
elect President or Congress in 1904.
THE Republican Party has invariably
won when united on the tariff.
The Republican Party has invariably
losts when divided on the tarin.
by Republicans who thought and SAID
that the Mckinley tariff was too high,
and not by Democrats who thought ana
said the same thing.
ut was the frugal class in our voting
population, shaken in its own belief by
Republican wavering as to the wisdom
and efficiency of the Mckinley tarin,
whose votes elected Grover Cleveland.
These frugal people were made to believe
that prices were too high in 1902 and
that the best way to cheaper prices was
to elect a tariff reform administration.
These same frugal people will decide the
question of tariff repeal in 1904 II re.
under the Dingley tariff prices are too
high and that increased foreign compe-
tition is needed in order to lower do
nestle prices.
"If only the Democrats and free trad
ers said that prices were too high and
must be reduced by tariff repeal the fru-
gal classes would not believe 1t; 1t was
when Republicans tell them this that
they believe 1t, and they will vote as
they believe.
Neither in the Congressional campaign
of 1902 nor in the Presidential campaign
of 1904 can the Republican Party pos
sbly lose if 1t stands together on the
tariff ouestion-if it stops talking the
kind of stun that should be left to DEM
ocrats alone to talk, namely, the neces-
sity for tariff revision
IF Republicans continue to use cam
paign arguments against the Republican
Party the defeat of the Republican Party
is an assured fact. 1t can be brought
about in no other way"

SHOT FOR A DEER.

Albert Teal of Leland was shot by
his brother William in the forests of
Northern Josephine county last Fri
day. The shooting was accidental,
William mistaking his brother for a
deer, shooting him with Winches-
ter. the ball penetrating the right
thigh, inflictinga very serious wound.
The two men We're out hunting in
the mountains of Grave creek and
were walking through the heavily
timbered region, one ON each side of
u gulch. William Teal saw an object
moving up the distant mountain side
which he supposed was deer He
fired at it and was Mortified to hear
his brother scream in pain. He rush
ed across and found that he had made
a sad mistake-he had shot his broth
er. There was no one near, the closest
house being some miles distant. He
secured aid as quickly as possible and
the wounded man was carried out of
the mountains, distance of six miles
Albert Teal was brought to Grants
Pass on Saturday mornings train for
medical treatment He suffered much
from the loss of blood. The physi
clans were unable to locate the bullet,
but they feel confident that the wound
ed man will recover unless some com
plications arise later on that are not
known at the present time.

The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1902-11-14

The peculiar relations that flowers
and insects bear to each other make
one of the most interesting studies OF
the naturalist. You have heard, per
haps. that the flowers assume their
gay colors for the purpose of attract
ing insects, but it is not generally
known, probably. that the closing of
some blooms at nightfall-their going
to sleep, as it were-is the direct re-
suit of their relations with insects.
See how nicely Nature has arranged
things in this provision Of hers. The
flowers that sleep at night are those
that depend for fertilization on the
visits of day flying insects. Not only
therefore. is it unnecessary for them to
remain open at night, but they would
be robbed if they did, for the night fly
ing insects would steal their honey
while being incapable of fertilizing
them. BY closing their blossoms at
night they save their honey to attract
the day flying insects and get paid for
it by the pollen that these insects bring
them.
There are flowers that sleep during
the day and open at night and others
that give out their sweetest odor mt
night. all to attract the particular in
sects that fertilize them. The day in
sects would not give them anything In
return for the honey they took, but the
night insects give them the pollen they
need; so they sleep during the day and
open all their attractions at night.
