THE ISSUE THAT is FOREMOST
Present Campaign, All Over
the Country.

The voice of an eastern observer,
who speaks with some authority, has
been raised to remark that there is q
wide difference of opinion among re-
publicans as to what is the foremost
issue, of the present campaign, says tho
Chicago Inter Ocean.
This is a mistake. The foremost is
sue of this campaign is prosperity. 1t
covers and includes all other issues. 1t
is the beginning and end of them all.
No intelligent republican is, blind to
these facts.
This foremost issue involves reci-
procity with Cuba and ether lands. be-
cause, as Mr.. Mckinley declared in his
Buffalo speech, reciprocity is necessary
to keep the wheels of our industry
turning at full speed.
This foremost issue includes also the
preservation of the tariff from any
general revision, because general tariff
revision would disturb the tixity of
conditions that have contributed to
our prosperity and,are necessary to its
continuance.
This foremost issue covers also the
questions of retaining our sovereignty
and our market in the Philippines, and
promoting our commerce in the Pacific
area.
This foremost issue comprehend IDS
the necessity for the early construc-
ton of an isthmian canal on route
where American control will go hand
in hand with American foreign trade.
This foremost issue is wide enough
also to embrace completely President
Roosevelt's policy toward the trusts
a policy calculated to prevent the ship
wreck of American enterprise in de-
luge of imitation. speculation. and debt
and to hold the nations business an6
industry to the recognized lines Of
safety and permanent progress.
This foremost issue is an inherited
issue. Even as set forth on this day
it came to President Roosevelt and the
republican party from President Me
Kinley and his administration. 1t isas
good and live and strong now as wher
the great prosperity president was
with us.
In'this sign the republican party goe.
forth to conquer. for it is the sign Of
signs, and they who march in its ligh1
do not suffer defeat.

PROSPERITY IS GROWING.
Enrdfng the Financial Status
of United States.

At the laying of the corner st one of
the new custom house in New York,
Tuesday, October z. Secretary of the
Treasury Shaw was present and in an
address to the people said:
Our foreign commerce. like the proGuc-
tive and consumptive capacity of our peo-
pie, has increased more rapidly than our
population. Since 1860 our population has
multiplied 2lS. while our foreign commerce
has multiplied by 8 1-3. Thus our prosper
ity rebounds to the advantage of those
across the seas, who supply that which we
Go not produce.
Not only is this true but the public rev.
enues are dependent in a great measure
upon our prosperity In 1894 we had a
deficit in round numbers of $100glC01. I

The secretary contended that COM

lies was not what it should be, and he
recounted some of the disadvantages
to which he attributes this fact. In
conclusion he said:
Give us currency as secure, banking
policy as elastic, system of weights and
measures as convenient as our rivals; give
us nonpartisar support to- such measures as
will establish lines of steamship commune

President Mckinley said: "Combina-
lions of capital which control the
market in commodities necessary to
the general use of the people, by
snppressing natural and ordinary
competition, thus enhancing prices to
the general consumer, are obnoxious
to the common law and the public
welfare. They are dangerous con-
spiracies against the public good and

The remarks of Chairman Babcock, Of
the Republican congressional campaign
committee, furnish reassuring indication
that no serious demand will come from
the Republicans of the west for tariff tin
kering or any hasty and ill-considered
tampering with the country's healthy
commercial state.
Keep on letting well enough alone is
the motto of the party that the people are
certain to endorse, and Mr. Babcock acts
wisely in adopting it.
The Democrats will doubtless put their
trust in anti trust and anti-tariff talk, ard
Chairman Babcock expresses the feeling
OF all Republicans in welcoming that issue
These words sound the keynote of tile
campaign:
THE only antitrust legislation on the
statute books was enacted by the Repu5-
lcan party in congress. The Democrats
have no record. The tariff is an issue we
gladly espouse. With everybody at work,
everybody with money and clothes ard
food, and enough money left over to have
some kind of good time on; with pros
perity on every hand, the result of Re.
publican policies, we are not afraid to ask
the country to continue the Republican
party in power in order that these policies
may be continued in effect"

THE political programme of Colonel
William ]. Bryan seems subject to chang e
nowadays between way stations At one
stopping point he softens wistfully to the
suggestion of another Presidential nomi-
nation; at the next he waves aside that
thought as the unhallowed prompting Of
an overbold ambition.
At Mason City, Iowa, on Wednesday,
when the yielding mood was uppermost
he was quoted as declaring that he was
not candidate in the light of seeking
again to lead the Democratic party, but if
the party should decide he was the proper
man to head the ticket, he could not
honorably say No." At Muscatine, in
the same state, on Friday, when the colder
ut was on him, he announced with virtuolls
resignation: II will not be candidate for
President in 1904. While l would not
promise never to be candidate under any
circumstances, have no plans looking 70
future nomination for any office"
Plainly, however, whatever other sur
prises the Nebraska orator may have in
store for his devoted followers, he has no
idea at present of dwindling to a merely
honorary and passive role in Democratic
politics. If he can help himself, he viii
never play the part of an emeritus leader

man, of the Elizabeth, Plainfield and Cen

novel means of disposing of the grass on
the Elizabeth and Plainfeld line. The
experiment is being made on Second ave-

torch on wheels such as is used in melting

track burning the grass off. The gaso-

the fresh, green grass and weeds are
burned to a crisp.
