OPINIONS AND POINTERS.

1t is remarkable how eager the
administration newspapers are to ac-
cept Dewey's opinion of Aguinaldo,
and how reluctant they are to accept
Dewey's opinion of Schley.-Detroit
Free Press.
Stranger things have happened
than that the tariff should finally split
the republican party as free silver
split the democratic party, and that
the democratic party should eventual
Iy be restored to power through the
issue that it subordinated in 1S96.-De-
troit Free Press.
-Fire-Alarm Foraker, of Ohio,
says that all the other republican
presidential booms except Roosevelt's
are 'sf1ickering flames that some ambi-
tious partisans are trying to fan into
blaze" Foraker's colleague, Mark
Hanna, may be ''fiickering blaze" but
he has the money to burn, and watch
him roast er!-AIbany Argus.
Trust insistence that the tariff
shall be held sacred is full of promise
for democratic success in the near fu-
ture. The ''sacredness'' of system of
taxation which overburdens tie many
for the enrichment of the few is not
apparent to the people. The high pro-
tective tariff, the trusts which it has
created, and the party of the tariff and
the trusts must all go.7St. Louis Re-
public.
There is no doubt that tariff re-
form and the related question of mo-
nopoly presents the most concrete and
popular issue for the democrats. Thou-
sands of republicans see that our

stances so per cent. higher than it was
when our infant industries" were
really young and needed protection, ~

Basket which Interests
the Passengers.

The thin man looked just as If everybody
In the world imposed on him. Even his
mustache grew crooked. He came into the
car of the suburban train sidewise, depos-
tied his basket gingerly and slid into the
seat beside 1t. As soon as the train cleared
the tunnel the basket meowed. The thin
man smiled back at the man across the
aisle, and gave the basket shake. An
other meow A little girl in the seat N
front stood up the cushion and peered
at the basket, relates the New York Post
Like cats?" the thin man asked
:. Yep" the child answered. "Lemme see
No; it might get away" the thin man
said, with another smile.
The basket preserved silence for several
minutes, then it began to cluck. The
child's eyes opened wide.
Like chickens?" the thin man asked.
Before the child could reply the basket
emitted shrill whistle, and the man across
the aisle, whose face was puzzled as the
child's, asked:
What have you there, anyhow"
"Mockingbird, the thin man answered.

Expensive Amusement.

Revolutionary warfare is an ex.
pensive form of government. Five
years ago the United States spent
$1,o00,000 in building and placing
pneumatic guns designed to throw
tons of dynamite and blow the navies
of the world out of water. The mar
velous engines of destruction never
have had chance to show what they
can do, but they have just been con
demned as useless and sold for less
than their value as scrap iron tc

products, then cheapening the cost of
production and advancing the price to
consumers. This advance of 20 per
cent. in the price of the necessaries of
life falls with crushing force upon the
workingman. On the other hand. a
trust cheapening of the cost of pro-
duct1ol is also accomplished largely
at the workingman's expense.
The ultimate meaning of these
truths is that the monopoly trusts are
prospecting, but that the great mass
of the people are now in worse plight
than ever before. The workingman,
the consumer, the retail dealer. the
individual business man, all suffer in
order that the trusts may thrive. The
result is that few hundred men in
this country, the magnates in the
great trust corporations, are grow
ing immensely wealthy at the expense
of the people. The evil is one that
calls for prompt remedying, and the
applying of the remedy is well within
tire peoples power. The political
party responsible for the creation of
the trusts, and now owned body and
soul by the trusts, should be removed
from power in the government. The
high protective tariff, which main
tains the monopolies enjoyed by the
trusts, should be modified to a tariff
for revenue only, with duties removed
from all trust products. The trust
evil will disappear from American life
coincident with this wise action.

RESPONSIBILITY OF TRUSTS.
mon People Are Worse on
Than Ever Before.

In a recent editorial the Baltimore
Sun discusses the topic of STRIKES
and Prosperity" in refreshingly
frank vein, showing itself not in the
least afraid to look the truth in the
face and to analyze the significance
of the existing situation. says the ST.
Louis Republic.
The Sun notices that. although the
present is a period of national pros
perity in the United States according
to the ordinary acceptation of the
term, there is, nevertheless, a strange
unrest in the ranks of labor. The
workingman is dependent upon the
capitalist for employment, yet he is
in revolt against his employer. This
condition is not due to idle and ire
sponsible malice. A strike is a seri-
Gus step for the workingman, and he
knows it.
An investigation of the conditions
of living seems to account for this dis
satisfaction in the ranks of labor
The cost of the necessaries of life has
advanced 20 per cent. in the past three
years. This advance is due to the op-
Grafton of the trust, or combine, sys-
tenn, great corporations gaining a mo-
nopoly of food or other necessary

els in excess of the yield of 1901. A
crop of anything like this size will
mean cheaper food for the country
too, and will help to put the porl
and the beef prices down. Corn is
the biggest of the country's crops
and when it is large there is usually
prosperity in the. agricultural regions
as well as elsewhere.

Edison See. Things.

Inventor Edison estimates that
with his new storage battery the
scost of an automobile can be re-
duced to about $3.50. ''The man that
cannot quite afford to keep a horse
and carriage is the man that I am
trying to provide for" he says
''The automobile will be the thing
for him. It's first cost will not be
any greater, it will not require the
care, and the cost of maintenance
will come far below the cost of keep
ing a horse" May his prophetic vi,
sion be realized

Secret of Long Living.

The venerable Senator Pettus, of
Alabama, says: "The secret of 1iv-
ing long is to work. I am 81, and
happy and healthy as a boy. I no
tice that all my neighbors who got
rich and retired are dead. I never
got rich, and I never retired" And
he never died. Long may he be
spared. A man who is 81 years
young" and still happy and healthy
is a mighty good example to hold
up before this age of hustle, and
get rich, and retire.
