"The week ending September Is was

State Superintendent Of Public In
struction Richard G. Barrett is aur
shorty for the following:
Time was when the male pedagogue
ruled supreme. Slowly but surely the
gentle schoolma'a am has been driving
him out of the profession. 1t may be
a case of the survival Of the attest,
but there are many who are not of
that opinion. Even ardent advocates
of the new woman movement are not
ready to admit that the total elimin-
alton of the man behind the Speller is
desirable.
1t really seems to be a case OF the
survival Of the cheapest. Men can
not devote years to preparation for
teaching and then give their time and
services for pay that the average
hired man on the farm would reject
with scorn. 1T is not wise policy
that the rural directors pursue when
they offer the man who is to educate
their children less than the other
man who feeds their hogs.
Just why the teacher should be the
lpariah among the professional men is
a question that is difficult to answer.
But such is the case, not merely in
Iowa, but in all parts of the United
States, as well as in the old world. In
consequence, young men of ability
and ambition look upon teaching as a
mere make shift, and soon forsake the
school room for some other employ
ment that promises better returns.

they returned from Sycamore Hill,
but it can be stated on reliable au-
thority that it was decided to make
no attempt to revise the tariff at the
coming session of congress-; that the
president is to maintain his position
as to the trusts, and further, that
he is to insist in his demand for re-
ciprocity with Cuba. 1t is understood
that he will fully outline his policy
regarding this latter question in
some of the speeches he is to make

We ask the farmers, the great body
of consumers and producers, to care
fully read the article on our second
page of Friday last under the head OF
1.-THE Paper Trust" 1t is from the
st. Paul Pioneer Press, which has al
ways told you that the foreigner pays
the tariff. Now it tells the truth
when it states that in every branch
of business but its own the manufac-
turers can protect themselves by rails
ing the price Of the goods, thus con-
Tossing just what tariff reformers have
always asserted as the truth that the
consumer pays the tariff. When the
cost of the material that goes into a
pillow through a tariff is increased, the
price of the pillow is raised, the dealer
advancing the price to cover the IN
creased price he has paid and for a
profit thereon to cover interest, thus
the consumer eventually paying the
tariff. And the same holds good iI
all other articles upon which tariff
is levied as rule. But inaSmuch al
it is the means provided for raising
revenue for the support Of the govern
ment, the true theory is that it be to-
revenue only.

price of newspapers was fixed tine

ONE WEEK WITH The BUDDING eR1p1RoN HERO

braska, the Dakotas, Minnesota and
Wisconsin early corn has been serious
]y injured. 1t is estimated that more
than one-half of the crop in Iowa and
South Dakota was too far advanced to
be seriously hurt, but the bulk of the
remainder has been badly damaged.
much corn has been cut over the
southern portion of the corn belt,
where fine crop is assured,
"The weather conditions have been
favorable for threshing spring wheat
throughout the principal spring wheat
states except North Dakota, where
high winds have interrupted this work
to some extent.
"Tobacco has been injured to some
extent by frosts in Kentucky and Ten
nessee. About one-third of the crop
remains in the field in Kentucky, but
in other important tobacco states cut
ting and housing have been largely
finished.
Some improvement in the condition
of apples is reported in Ohio and ILL
nois. A good crop is promised in
Michigan, Wisconsin, Missouri, and
portions of Kansas, but in Indiana and
generally throughout the middle At.
lantic states very light yield is in.
dicated. In New York and New Eng.
land apples have been injured by high
winds.
'"rhe progress made with blowing
for fall seeding has been very satisfac
tory throughout the central valleys
and considerable winter wheat has
been sown in Missouri, Kansas and Ne
braska. This work, has. however
been much delayed in the interior por
| tiops of the middle Atlantic states
and in parts Of Tennessee, Oklahom:
| and Nebraska"

At the opening of the Missouri DEM
ocratic state campaign, at Joplin,
Hon. VIM. j. Bryan tru y said: II tell
you one trust magnate in stripes be-
hind the prison walls would do more
to break up trusts than all the speech
es the president can make. The COLI
stitutional amendment the republi-
cans are talking about is not meant
for the regulation of trusts, but to
take the power to control trusts away
from the states and so protect the
trusts"
The history OF Institutional amend
ments hitherto adopted has required
about three years for their adoption.
Such representation as this ough'
to find favor with the trusts and make
the president quite a lion among
them, Proceedings under the crimi-
nal clause of the law Of 1890 would
shut them up at once, and would also
shut off the slush fund for election
purposes in 1904.

Could the Pioneer-Press have trans
ferred this additional cost to its sub
scribers, would it's eyes have beer
opened to the oppression of the tariff
protected trusts and the burdens it
puts on the people generally.
There is but one way for the coun-
try newspaper to meet this advance
in the cost OF print, and that is to in
sist upon payment at the beginning
instead Of at the end of the year.
Against the tariff tax that goes into
the public revenue there is little crit
icism. Against the tariff that pro-
hibits imports upon which revenue
for tie government is collected, but
which tax goes to enrich the tariff
protected trusts, the people should
protest.

To Down the Trusts.

Public sentiment in favor of that
simple and effective form Of ami antitrust
legislation which will remove the dn-
ties on ali articles controlled by the
more evil trusts gains strength and
volume day by day. There is feeling
that this is the only practical way in
which the trusts can be successfully
fought. The truth is known that the
monopoly trusts con1lld not exist but
for the high protective Tariff which
creates their monopolies, The further
truth is known that the American peo-
pie pay the gigantic tax imposed by
reason of the high tariff which thus
fosters and enriches the trusts. This
makes plain the manner in which the
trusts are. to be overcome. The tariff
duties on all articles controlled by the
monopolistic corporations must be re-
moyed.-St. Louis Republic.
