Having put Cuba on her feet,

to do but cut the tariff string.-N.
Y. World.
When the democrats and insur-
gent republicans took the differential
off refined sugar they put a crimp
in the sugar trust that will have to
be ironed out in the senate. But
then the trust has had little trouble
with it's ironing in the senate in the
past.-Toledo Bee.

Tariff revision is declared to be
in the air in congressional circles at
Washington and undoubtedly got a
great scnd-off in the vote of the
house ON the Cuban bill, on which
62 republicans put themselves on
record In favor of removing the
pfngiey tariff on refined sugar. It
IL believed to be the beginning of an
effort within the republican party to
make a general revision of the Ding
ley Observation-Disclosures Post.
Tie people have long ago ac-
curately sized up the trust situation.
They know that the great combina-
tions in restraint of trade are q
menace of the gravest import to the
general good. They have. seen these
organizations created and fostered
by republican policies. In every i'm
portant political campaign they find
the trusts aligned solidly on the re-
publican side, contributing heavy
sums to the republican campaign
slush funds and using all their infiu-
ence to compel their employees to
vote the republican ticket.-St. Louis

SEE THE MEHAcE OF TRUSTS.
The People Are Becoming Convinced
of the Dangers of Repub-
lican Protection.

Unquestionably the sentiment of the
middle west and northwest at the pres
ent time is so strongly in favor of
tariff revision as to promise some ex
tremely disagreeable surprises for the
republican party in the near future.
says the st. Louis Republic.
For some few years past the people
have been slowly but surely awaken
ing to the fact that a high protective
tariff contained no meaning of benefit
to themselves. They have found that
the only results, as far as they were
concerned, was that they were COM
PEELED to pay higher prices for Amer.
lean manufactured products than was
paid in foreign markets for, the same
products. When they remembered
that the high tariff was levied for the
express purpose of protecting" Amer
lean industries from foreign competi-
ton, the fact above mentioned opened
their eyes to the bunko nature of the
tariff.
During the time that the people, the
consumers, have been paying this tar
lh tax. amounting to many millions OF
dollars, the monopoly trusts, the sole
beneficiaries of this tax tribute ex-
acted from the people, have grown
enormously wealthy. The chief fig
ures in these trusts are miifionaires
many times over. They have been
made so because of the enormous prof
its on their goods which the Ameri-
can consuming public was compelled
to pay. Growing thus wealthy, they
have also become arrogant and in
solent. They do not now recognize
that the people have any rights which
they are bound to respect. They feel
that they control the republican par
ty and that the republican party
controls the government, hence they
are safe in scorning the people and in
sisting upon further privileges and
the maintenance of the high protective
tariff.
There is a big surprise in store for
these monopoly millionaires and for
the political party which does their
bidding. The patience of the Ameri-
can people has at last reached its
limit. The recent development of
beef trust rapacity and of the railway
trend toward a most ominous mo-
nopoly of the carrying trade in the
northwest has aroused the people to
sense of peril. Protective action
will be taken at the polls in the con-
gressional elections this year and in
the presidential elections two years
hence. The people now know beyond
all question that they must eliminate
the trust evil from American life if
the rights of the many are to prevail
as against the privileges of the few.

They Can't steal Much.

There is a growing impression that
the republican leaders in the house
will not undertake to pass the
steamship subsidy bill in this ses-
sion, but will postpone it's passage
until next winter. The house has
ample time to pass the bill now if
a majority could be mustered in it's
favor. In order to give the repub-
licans of the house rope enough the
democrats of the senate made little
obstruction or delay to the passage
of the bill. But the maneuver has
not worked satisfactorily. If the
house cannot be induced to pass the
bill now there will be just as little
perhaps .less-prospect of its pas
sage next winter, after nearly a
years further experience of the
growth of the American merchant
marine without subsidy.-Philadel-
phia Record.

The Enect viii Lost.

Senator Hoar's earnest speech
against his party's policy in the
Philippines was as sincere an utter
ance al; has ever been voiced in the
senate chamber, and it was as genu.
inely American as sincere. Yet
there is not the remotest likelihood
of that speech influencing republican
action on this issue. The dominant
element in Senator Hoar's party is
completely surrendered to the peril.
Gus policies of Imperialism and
colonialism that were born with the
temptation created by our mastery
of Spain in the Philippines. These
ominous and un-American policies
will be maintained as long as the re-
publican party remains in power
Senator Hoar's great speech was ut
terly impotent for good, in so far
as a correction of his own party's
evil tendency is concerned. The
American people must turn to the
democracy for the saving Americanism
necessary in the present crisis.-St
Louis Republic.

atty. He was born in Virginia. He is
a democrat to his marrow bones -
democrat for principle, not loaves and
fishes. He saw things with a states
mans, not a place-hunter's eyes. He
remembered how Tammany had fought
Tilden, had fought Robinson, had
fought Cleveland; how it had twice
raised and twice dashed Bryan's hopes.
He saw theNparty divided and beaten
in a disastrous local election;s he
thought it "man-size" task to bring
the factions together. Men of note
felt his purpose by instinct. In his
brief term he brought David B. Hill
and the cleaner Tammany men to-
gether-with Mclaughlin, the Brook
lyn boss, Hill has ever been friendly.
The character of Edward NJ. Shepard,
the beaten candidate for mayor, was
in his favor.
Don't believe that Nixon resigned
wigwam office. Ex-Mayor Van Wyck,
judged by the verdict in last falls cleo
ton, is certainly unfit to act as grand
sachem and distribute the charity of
the order. Local democracy lost 1000
votes of men who spoiled their ballots
trying to scratch" the mayor. Now
Croker and the worst element in Tam
many are trying to secure Van Wyclk
a "vindication" by nominating him
again for $4,000 judgeship next fall,
when they expect local democratic
tidal wave. This would be Characters
tic of Tammany to secure fat office
for a court favorite, no matter how
many votes it may cost the party in
the state. That was what Nixon would
not "stand for"
Croker is not shrewd politician.
His idea of leadership is to compel
other men to his iron will. He is like
the Bourbons. He learns nothing; for
gets nothing. Nixon is treasurer of
the national democracy; his tremen-
dous energy is at the party's service.

Mrs. Judge McAllister writes from
1917 West 33rd ST., Minneapolis, Minn-,
as follows:
"Isuffered for years with q pain IN

Ii inferfered often with my domestic
and social duties and never supposed
fhatI would be cured, as the doctors

lister.
The great popularity of Peruna as
catarrh remedy has tempted many
people to initiate Peruna. A great
many so-called catarrh remedies and
catarrhal tonics are to be found In
many drug-stores. These remedies can
be procured by the druggist much
cheaper than Peruna. Peruna can only
be obtained at uniform price, and no
druggist can get it a cent cheaper.
Thus it is that druggists are tempted
to substitute the cheap limitations OF
Peruna for Peruna. It is done every
day without a doubt.

their ancestors in the revolutionary
and colonial wars. But the fast, fox
hunting, country palace-building,
horse-racing, Monte Carlo-haunting,
automobiling set have paid them lit

1t is a curious coincidence that when
Count de Rochambeau came ashore,
only ten miles farther down the river
than his illustrious ancestor, there
was a Count de Lafayette to meet him,
even as Marquis de Lafayette met the
earlier Rochambeau. A fine monu-
ment marks the spot, which is on the
Hudson, near Tarrytown and Irving
ton, in that part of all the United
States which most successfully COM
bines historic interest with scenic
charm.
The French delegates have nothing

goodness needs stimulus. Shepard is
the younger and has had less expert
ence in practical politics. This is an
advantage. He has fewer things to
forget, and fewer things about him
for others to forget. He has the re-
spect of reform elements in all parties.
Nixon is unlike both. He more re-
sembles Roosevelt, though I have not
heard the comparison made. They
have the same breezy manner, the same
impetuousness. Nixon is magnetic, a
steam engine in trousers for energy,
a mans man. People like him, when
they do not run counter to him. He,
like Croker, has an imperious will,
though he has bent to it circumsta noes
rather than men. His business career
has been meteoric. From the navy to
the shipyard, he designed the Oregon

heated term. The number taken by
anyone is usually small enough so that
the hostess can have personal &C
quaintance with her guests. And in
many cases the guests are made to
feel as much at home as if at house
party of her friends. Mrs. Hoe, wife
of the famous maker of printing
presses, has a summer home of this
pleasant character, where usually
dozen guests are entertained with as
much courtesy as if they did not come
from and return to the poorest tene-
ments; numerous vacation girls
clubs are of the same sort. At some
of these a small fee is charged for
board, so that the guest may feel that
she is paying her way. Passengers on
the New Haven road pass every day a
beautifully located summer home for
shop girls, where usually dozen or
more happy girls are out boating upon
a lovely river. 1t is pretty sight.

larger scale. He has bought big

a rabbi at ten dollars a week to SUI
pervise the butchering of animals
which are to become kosher food. The
examination of the animal, in theory
at least, is most minute. When COM
pleted, certificate is given for each
quarter of meat; but the kosher no
longer applies if the meat is kept more
than three days.
These restrictions are costly in
New York, though simple in village;
so kosher meat has risen in price
more than in proportion to ordinary
stock, and the East side has organized
boycotts upon it until the price comes
down. Picturesque rioting of the
hair-pulling sort has been the conse-
quence, and women of respectable
characters have occupied cells for
"picketing" shops after approved boy
colt methods.
An East side riot is like nothing else
in the world. The queer, 1ong-beard-
ed, pale-faced, gesticulating tailors,
with their oriental volubility, puzzle
the police. "There's some fun in a
