runs for their frat innings the English had
lost five OF their finest batsrnen for only 10

One Of the councilmen who filed
the noted injunction suit the other day
gave the whole snap away when he
said, "If the question is not settled
we shall have two mayors next year. "
This probably means that the council
men wanted Psducan to go back into

way in which there would not be

THE PRESIDENT ON
TARIFF REVISIOr

TARIFF REVISION
The Democratic press that thinks
it now sees an opportunity to SOW
dissension in the Republican party on
the tariff question will find it is mis-
taken in its idea that any material
part of the party is in favor Of tariff
revision. What few Republicans are
in favor of il are not numerous enough
to affect the party as whole, and their
influence and votes, when they see that
the majority is against them, will be
promptly given over to the majority.
But even otherwise. there are not
enough of them to hurt the party.
President Roosevelt. the recognized
leader of the Republican party, has
quickly exploded the tariff revision
theory as a cure for trusts. In his
speech in Cincinnati Saturday night
he declared that the real evils con-
nected with the trusts cannot be rem
edied by any chsnge in the tariff laws
and that while trusts can be in jured
by the removal Of protective tariff, by
the same means the small competitors
and all laborers dependent ON the lat
ter will be ruined. The revision cure
would affect the small producer more
than the big corporation, and result
in general financial disaster. The
Democrats probably would not object
to the latter II they could charge it to
the Republican party, and that's one
reason they pretend they want the
tariff tempered with.
President Roosevelt further ex-
plains that the immediate introduc-
tion of subtantial free trade in all ar
ticles manufactured by trusts would
not affect some of the most powerful
Of our business combinations IN the
least, save by the damage done to the
general business welfare of the coun-
try. He declares that no 6emagogic
scheme to destroy the trusts aud the
prosperity Of the country with them,
will be counternanced by the peo-
pie. And he is right
