become obvious that the tariff en- riched few corporations tt the expense of consumers and retailers. The falsity of the claim that pro- lection is necessary for these cor porations is found in the fact that they are selling their products in European markets at lower price than in American markets. and that they are underselling the very competitors against whom they claim the protection of d high tariff.
 The folly of Republican manag- CTS in believing that the people can still be fooled on this issue is almost incredible Even in the Republican party itself there is a growing demand for tariff revision. This is due to the widespread per ception of the truth that a high tariff simply imposes a burden some tax on the people in order to maintain the monopolies enjoyed by the trusts. and that the trusts manifest their appreciation of their power by overcharging the people for all trust products, thus impos- ing a double tax for trust enrich ment. Many republicans now cry out in protest against this wrong ing of the people, but their pro- test is without effect on machine policies.
 A decidedly startling lesson awaits Republican organs and Re- publican stump-speakers in the campaigns of 1902 and 1904. When they begin to sound the old rally ing cries that were wont to assem- ble befooled voters to the support of the party of the tariff and the trusts they will find that these cries have lost their potency. The American people have learned the buneo nature of the high protec- tive tariff and the malignant possi- bilities of the trusts. They want no more of either, and they will get rid of both by removing from power in the Government the po- litical party responsibility for both.
 There is little reason to believe that the machine managers and leading organs of the Republican party are willing that MT. Roose- welt should receive the Republican nomination for the Presidency in 1904 They distrust him because they doubt his thorough thick-and- thin allegiance to the combines for monopoly now in control of their party. He is what they call an "unsafe" man-one who will not implicitly obey the dictates of the trusts. Now, on the other hand. Senator Hanna would make what the trusts regard as an ideal Presi- dent. He could be safely relied upon to favor the trusts as against the people everytime. He has no foolish ideas to the effect that the rights of the people should not be sacrificed to the privileges of the trnsts. In Washington the belief Is common that there is a powerful organization to bloom" Hanna for the Presidential nomination. The story Is easy credible.-Re- public.

be very favorable so far as late cotton

theory. The reports from spot cotton mar

CATTLE-There were not as many cattle
on sale this morning as arrived a week ago,
last year. The combined receipts at all
markets were quite heavy, and at most
points all but the fancy grades were a
little lower. tn local demand here, how
ever, seemed to be fully equal to the occa-
sion, and there was very little change In
the prices paid for any class of cattle.
There were no strictly choice cornfed
steers on the market, but there were a few
of pretty fair quality. As was the case
last week, the more desirable grades sold
without much trouble at steady prices.
while the part fat and warmed-up stun
was neglected and sold at uneven prices.
The market, though, could not be quoted
anything but steady.
There was considerable life to the COW
trade this morning, and fully steady prices
were paid for anything at all desirable.
The trains were so late In arriving that
sellers were able to dispose of their better

even that could not be quoted much of any

to dispose of some of their inferior grades.
There were comparatively few western
beef steers included in the offerings this
and showed considerable activity on the
better grades. The common kinds were. of
course, slow sale, the same as usual.
Western feeder steers were steady all

The GEORGE A. TREADwELL MINING
COMPANY, which bears the Professors
name, owns a vast aggregation Of wonder
fully rich mining properties near the ia
nous United Verde on the Verde Copper
Belt and in the Big Bug District in Yavapai
County, Arizona. Its first smelter, of ono
hundred tons daily capacity, is ready to
start up, and 1t will be followed by other
furnaces until a capacity OF a thousand tons
or more a day is reached.
The ore is rich in gold as we'll as copper
and gives a net profit over and above the
entire cost Of mining and smelling. OF at
least $40 a ton. In some of the mines the
gold itself will pay the entire cost of pro-
ducing the gold and copper. leaving the
copper cost-free.
The mines are already producing more
than enough to supply the present furnace.
and the ore production will increase faster
than it is possible to increase the furnace
capacity.
The company has a very low capitaliza-

SHEEP-The receipts of sheep were
more liberal this morning than they were
a week ago or a year ago, but still the
market ruled active and steady. There
was comparatively little good stun from
the packers standpoint, the bulk OF the
receipts being made up of feeders. Any
thing desirable in the way of killers sold
readily at steady prices as compared with
the close of last week. Yearlings sold as
high at 500, wethers reached 1910 and
ewes 1870. There was not very much
native stun on the market, but a bunch of
cornfed lambs brought $5.75, which is the
highest price of the season.
The feeder market did not show any
great amount of activity, as there were
not many buyers in sight. The better
grades, though, were just about steady
and the common stun dull.
