so long as the American people can be
deluded into the belief that an amend

necessary to curb the power of the
trusts. Of course they viii profess to

Moral Eject of Victory VIII
BE Perunanent

Manila, Oct. Capt. John j. PERISH
hg's column has completely routed
the Macui Moros, in the island of
Mlndanao, killing or wounding 100 of
them and destroying 40 forts. Two
Americans were wounded.
On Tuesday the Moros retired to
their largest and strongest fort on
the Lake store, and Wednesday Capt.
Pershing attacked them with artil-
lery, bombarding the enemy for three
1ours. At noon Lieut.. Loring, lead
.ng squad CT men, attempted to set
fire to the fort. He crept under the
walls and started a blaze, but the
Moros discovered him and forced the
Americans to retreat. During the
afternoon the sultan of Cabugalan
led a sortie at the head of a band of
fanatics armed with Krises. They
crept through the grass and sprang
up and attacked the Americans. The
sultan was wounded six times and
boloed an American before he died.
His followers were killed. In the
darkness Wednesday night Capt.
Pershing took his batteries within
100 yards of the fort, closed in his
infantry lines and resumed the att
tack. The MOros broke through
twice and attempted to escape by the
beach but were discovered and many
of them were killed. The Moros aban-
doned the fort early on Thursday,
after Is hours bombardment, and
Thursday Capt. Pershing destroyed
the rest of the forts and returned to
Camp Wears. It is believed the moral
effect of the death of the Moros will
be great. Gen. Davis has ordered that
hostilities be stayed in order to per-
NIT the sultan of Bascaloo and other
hostile sultans to make peace.
The sultans of Macui were conf
dent of their ability to defeat the
Americans and vowed before the fight
to enter slavery voluntarily if they
themselves were defeated. Gen.
Davis has sent Gen. Sumner, in COM
mand of the American forces in Min
danao, a congratulatory eablegram
on the success of Capt. Pershing and
the small American losses.

The United States and Canada are

might be supposed that an economic
system that would benefit one would
also benefit the other. Such, how
ever, does not appear to be the case.

that the prosperity which they talk
so much about Ito make sure that
we have it) is due to our high pro-
lection policy, inaugurated five years
ago. Canada lowered her tariff du-
ties about the time we raised ours.
and the statesmen there are now
crediting their prosperity to these
lower duties. A recent issue of the
Toronto Globe says:
eff under any scale of duties the
Industries of country are prosper
ing, higher duties cannot be justified
even on grounds of eXpediency. The
country has now been for five years
under a tariff very considerably low
er than that which prevailed in the
previous II years, period amply
sufficient to test the efficacy of high
protection. The prosperity of ouI
industries under the low tariff has
far exceeded that enjoyed under the
high tariff. The result is that the
extreme protectionists are forced
back upon the idea of retaliation
pure and simple. The United States

almost dead, they bound his arms

FOR THE CANTEEN.
Secretary of War Root Will Ask
Congress to Repeal Present Law.
Reports from Military Posts Declare Moral
Condition of Troops Is Worse Than
When Liquor Was Sold on
Post Exchanges.

Washington, Oct. 4.-EHhu Root,
secretary of war, Will recommend
that congress at it's next session re-
peal the law prohibiting the sale OF
Intoxicating beverages on military
reservations. He will urge that the
canteen system, which has been a
source of considerable agitation for
many years, be re-established. The
secretary will make this recommen-
dation upon the strength of reports
made by department commanders
and upon Investigations which the
war department has conducted rela-
tive to the effect of the abandon
ment of the system. 1t is doubtful
if any legislation can be enacted on
this subject at the short session. Mr..
Roots recommendation is certain to
arouse the antagonism of the W. c..
T. U. and kindred organizations,
whose years of hard work accom-
plished the abolition of the canteen
system.
Gen: Miles does not agree to the
position taken by the secretary OF
war. It is expected that he will con-
slider the matter in his annual report
and will probably make strong rec
concentrations against the repeal of
the present law. Regardless of the
attitude of Gen. Miles, it is admitted
at the war department that Secre
tary Root is going to take pro-
nounced stand in favor of the re-es-
tablishment of the canteen. He con-
tends that it is better to allow the
enlisted men to have the privilege of
drinking beer and light wines. 1t is
claimed at the war department that
the canteen has been succeeded by
low dives just outside the army posts,
into which soldiers are lured by I'M
principled men and disso1ute women,
with the result that they are usually
kept there until their last cent is
gone.

Pueblo, Col, Oct. 5.-Dressed as a
tramp and worn and haggard with a
walk of so miles through storm and
cold, a man whose face belied his
class stumbled into the dispensary
of the Colorado Fuel & Iron company
before daylight this morning and
begged for medicine to relieve a Sc
we're attack of cramps in the stom-
ach. His language was more GER
tain betrayal than his face, and
though he persistenly denied that he
was anything more than common
tramp, a letter worn and crumbled
slipped from the pocket of the ragged
overcoat the tramp had thrown over
a chair. 1t was directed to Prof. w.
A. Wyckoff, Princeton, N. J. Wycoff,
seeing that he was fairly caught,
admitted that he had tramped the
state for work and lived the life of a
hobo, slept in box cars and beat his
way about the country. In a few
hours he was able to resume his jour-
ney of sociological travel.

THE PRESIDENT SHOT BOAR.

viii not buy our gooue as freely as
we buy theirs. Therefore we must
cut down our American imports IN
til something like equality is estab-
lished. Germany has made some
foolish determinations against Ca
aim to strike blow at Germany. In
this way the word protection loses its
meaning. What is sought is not the
protection of our own industries, but
the injury of somebody else's."
This high tariff produces prosper
ity in the United States and low
tariff produces prosperity in Can
ada. Let well enough alone and
don't touch the high tariff say our
republican statesmen. Let well
enough alone and don't touch the
low tariff say the Canadian states
men.
Verify this is a queer world and
the tariff is a perpleXing question!
Is it possible that five years of good
crops in both these countries and
poor crops in Europe have anything
to do with our prosperity? Is it
certain that we are prosperous at
all, outside of the protected trusts
and the farming sections of the
west? Will not the trusts soon have
gobbled up all of the surplus pros
perity even of these western farm
ers?

Watcher was found guilty in the dis

ing John F. Stone, colonel command

after committing the crime and after
several months was arrested in Jua-
reg, Mex, being returned on extra
dition papers. He pleaded insanity
and two former trials resulted in
hung juries. He has been sentenced
for life, but the attorneys have ap-
pealed to the supreme court. Stone

GAGGING 1HE PRESIDENT.
How the Trusts Are Going to Ensure
the Continuation of Pro-
fection's Aid.

Two political events occurred on
Tuesday, September 16, that will have
a far-reaching effect on the politics of
the country. That they happened
simultaneously may have been an acct
dent but would point to a deep-laid
plan.
On that day President Roosevelt had
called together at Oyster Bay the lead
ers of his party to consult with them
about the position he should take on
the tariff and the trusts in his political
speeches in the west.
On the same day Speaker Henderson
declined to accept a denomination to
congress, giving as the reason that "a
great many" republicans in his district
were in favor of reforming the tariff
by taking off the protection that the
Dingley bill gives to the trusts.
Both the president and the speaker
of the house of representatives had
discovered that ga great many" repub-
icans wanted reform. They were tired
of paying more for the trust made
goods than the same goods were being
sold to foreigners for. Speaker Hen
derson had through the power of his
political machine stified the voice of
these independent republicans, and on
the face of the returns his convention,
made up of office holders and political
strikers, renominated him and made
platform of his own choosing of the
patented stripe. This happened in
May. He returns to his district in Sep
TENDER and finds the voice of the peo-
pie crying aloud for reform. He re-

There is no hod-carrying in Japan.
The native builders have a method
of transporting mortar which makes
1t seem more like play than work
to the onlooker. The mortar is
mixed in pile in the street. One
man makes this up into balls of about
: six pounds weight, which he losses
to a man who stands on ladder
midway between the roof and the
ground. This man deity catches the
ball and losses it up to man who
stands on the roof. This plan would
scarcely work for skyscrapers.
