as much for his attic wit a. for his
parsimony. He also suffered very
badly, and helped along his haIting
utterance with a frequent ejaculation
of Dye see? Dye see?" His niggard-
ly traits gained him widespread local
unpopularity and the bitter cumity of
sundowners, who were always rigor-
ously refused rations at his stations.
Smarting under this unusual inhuspi-
tally. some disappointed ~swaggIcs on
one occasion set fire to one OF the
squatter's wool sheds, and then wrOt"
upon a gate: We've dam well burnt
down your wool shed. Dye see Dye

mans eye when mex he passed

plated the announcement. and then
with a sardonic grin took the stump
of a blue pencil from his pocket and
scrubbed underneath: 1T was dam

ARE WILLING TO PLEASE.
The Republicans VIII Do Any Old
Thing to Win, According to
Their Programme.

The straits to which the repub-
lican party has arrived in the tariff
and the trust questions are extraor-
binary and must entail trouble
when the spellbinders are trying,
later on in the campaign, to explain
just where the republican party
stands. The newspapers publish in
terviews with several members of
congress who differ on these sub
interview published in the Washing
ton Post, August 81, says:
The tariff will be revised some
time, but not at the next session of
congress. or by the succeeding con-
gress unless there is a check to the
present prosperity" AS Mr.. Cannon
is one of the republican leaders Of
the house of representatives and is
chairman of the committee on APP
preparations. his statement must be
taken as good authority for the fac
tion which he trains with. If that
faction, which includes about all the
leaders that now control congress, is
able to control the organization of
the congress to be elected this year,
there will evidently be no tariff re-
vision or trust legislation. The
trusts would seem to have firm
hold on this faction of the republican
party. for tariff revision is the only
legislation these trusts fear who are
protected by the tariff. Senator
Pritchard. of North Carolina, in an
interview in the same paper and on
the same day as Mr.. Cannon, says:
Il have no sympathy with the de-
sire to tinker with the tariff.
I shall certainly oppose any effort to
reform the tariff"
In Massachusetts there are candi-
The Forrest City times., 1902-09-19

dates for the republican nominal
tions for congress who have declared
for free raw material, and so want
the tariff revised. In Wisconsin at
least three congressional district
conventions declared for tariff re-
vision. In Minnesota Congressman
Eddy. in an interview. declares that
the republicans of the whole state
demand tariff revision. This view of
the case is Endorsed by the Mortified
News, which is owned and edited by
Congressman Heatwole, who in the
last issue of that paper said:
''The people of the northwest have be-
come fully convinced that they are paying
excessive prices for protected trusts goods
which are being sold cheaper in foreign
markets than a home. They are beginning
to realize that the foreign trade OF the
northwest, especially in its food products
VIII be diminished and Is liable to be de-
stroyed unless some of the tariff schedules
are modified"
This would indicate that the whole
state is ablaze for tariff revision
against the trusts. Senator Cullom,
of Illinois. declared in an interview
at Atlantic City last week, that he
favored tariff revision.
How will these republicans recon-
ellie their differences when on the
stump this fall. some talking for nj
ira protection, others for free trade
in hides and other raw materials.
others for partial tariff revision. and
still others for the removal of the
duty on trusts protected products.
The republican congressional com
mittee, In sending out the army of
spellbinders they have promised. will
have TO instruct them to prepare at
least three different speeches to fit
the localities they may visit. If vot-
ers living near the line of congress
sional districts should attend meet
ings in both adjacent districts, and
hear the spellbinders talking on both
sides, or even all sides. of the ques-
ton, will they be convinced that the
republican party is sincere in its tar
if policy?
The Forrest City times., 1902-09-19

person or persons to monopolize any
part of the trade or commerce among
the several states or with foreign ma
tions. shall be deemed guilty of mis-
demeanor, and, on conviction thereof,
shall be punished by a fine not exceed
ing $1,000, or by Imprisonment not
exceeding one year, or by both said
punishments, in the discretion of the
court"
If President Roosevelt will instruct
his attorney general to proceed
against the trust magnates under this
section through the criminal courts
there is hardly a doubt that many of
them could be convicted.
The attempted prosecution of the
trusts in the civil courts is too slow n
process even if eventually successful.
The beef trust and the Northwestern
railroad merger, the only ones that
have been attacked, do not seem to
be worried by the proceedings. In
TACT, the beef trust is perfectinp a
more perfect combine. Underthecrim-
mai clause of the law there would be
quicker action if the president really
means TO fight the trusts. and if the
present attorney general is slack and
nonresponsive to public opinion there
are other lawyers who have not been
corporation attorneys that can be
drafted for the battle.
The coal and beef trust magnates
would hardly care to spend wear in
the penitentiary and would doubtless
ohey the law rather than do so. The
coal road presidents would tumble
over themselves in their efforts to ar.
pirate their differences with the strik-
ing miners and the beef trust mag
mates would reduce the price of beef
TO reasonable figure rather than take
chances of being convicted.
president Roosevelt has the trust
question in the hollow of his hand fba
wants to grasp it.

OUR FIRST GREAT WORK.
The Education of the Children of
the south the First Great Work
of Every Lover Of Country.

Ex-GOv. and Ex-senator Thomas J.
Jarvis, of North Carolina. is now in
tbe sunset of life. His has been a
noble record on the pages of North
Carolina history. The following
words from a private letter written
by Kim breathe "a lofty craftsmanship
and proad patriotism:
Il look upon the education of the
children Of the south as the first
great work to engage the time and
thought and labors of every lover Of
his country and his kind.
Il am greatful for the help Of the
people of the north, but all the work
must be done by the men and women
OF the south. We understand the
conditions better and can deal with
them wiser than strangers. But our
people themselves must be taught to
deal with these conditions in a spirit
OF fairness and broad craftsmanship.
We have two races living in the south.
These races are distinct and must
remain SO. and yet they must live to-
gether. My judgment is that it is
DNt'Ni III bolii liIdl tdCH DS tuuNdltA
and trained and elevated to the high
est state of citizenship of which 1t
is capable. 1t is also my judgment
that the church and school houses
are the best agencies for making good
citizens. If these agencies can not
help ms in solving the race problem,
then indeed we have hopeless task
on our hands. But thank God l am a
man of faith. l believe in God and
in my feilow-men, and l believe the
people of the south can solve all prob
lens presented to them if they viii
cleave to the church and the school
house; and that too in a manner
which shall make them and their sec
ion a great power for good in the
world"

TRUSTS ARE WAXING FAT.
Republicans Having Failed to Curb
Them and No Reform Promised
to That End.

The chiefs of the two factions of the
republican party are wide apart on the
policy to be pursued on the most i'm
portant issues. Senator Hanna says
there are no monopolies but patents,
thus inferring that no legislation is
necessary on the trust question. Pres
ldent Roosevelt has taken the stump to
prove that Hanna is wrong and is rec
ommending publicity of 1.-THE trusts
transactions. In his Boston speech he
refers to Hanna as one of those gen
tlemen of large means who deny that
the evils (monopolies) exist are act
ing with great folly" He also tells
the New England people that it may
be necessary to amend the constitution
so as to be able to control the trusts.
As it requires two-thirds majority in
congress to propose an amendment to
the constitution and then requires
three-fourths of the legislatures of the
states to ratify it. most of us will be in
our graves before the presidential plan
is accomplished. The president does
not say n word about abolishIng or re-
that the trusts are selling here for
nearly double what they are charging
foreigners for the same goods. His
plan would seem to be to prolong the
agony of the people for an indefinite
period, while the coal trust. the beef
trust and all the other trusts slowly
bleed them to the point where they can
no longer resist.
There is another short road TO re-
straining monopolies provided in the
much abused antitrust law. which in
its second section provides that:
