SHAW'S PARDON REPORT
BIENNIAL DOCUMENT TO THE
GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
Resume of All Men Freed From Tho
Pen During The Last Two Years
BY Gov. Shaw.

Pen During The Last TWO years
BY Gov. Shaw.
Des Moines, Jan. 16.-Governor Les
lie M. Shaw yesterday transmitted to
the Twenty-ninth general assembly his
biennial report of pardons. reprieves.
combinations and suspensions grant
ed during his term which closes today,
the report being a part of and accom-
panying the biennial message Of the
governor to the general assembly.
The report is made in accordance with
the requirements OF section 16, article
4, of the constitution of Iowa.
The report is very lengthy and GOV.
err nearly one hundred pages Of close
ly typewriter matter. This greater
length is required because the COVER
nor during the term has taken occasion
to restore to citizenship large num-
Der of paroled prisoners. who were
released from the penitentiary dur
ing his first term and even as far back
as the terms of several of his prede-
cessors. In many instances the men
restored to citizenship did not know
that they did not have all the rights
of other free men. In one instance a
paroled convict OF Iowa was residing
in a New England town of several
thousand people and holding an cleo
tive office of responsibility and emolu-
ment. not knowing that he could not
legally hold SUCH an office until he
had been restored to citizenship.
The large number OF names appear
ing In the report are therefore account
ed for to large degree. During the
term the governor found it necessary
to revoke suspensions of forty-five pris-
oners in which he had misplaced his
confidence. ordering their return to
the penitentiary.
A brief synopsis of the number Of
cases touched on in the report is as
follows:

pleads Guilty to CHARGE of Murder

Iowa Falls. Jan. 1S.-Hardin county
will be spared the cost of an expensive
murder trial by Lane. the Alden muir
derer. pleading guilty to the charge of
murder in the first degree. This was
agreed upon by the attorney for the
state, and no effort will be made to
convict the man on the first charge
brought against him. He is advanced
in years and his sentence will probably
mean for life. He will be sentenced
by Judge Whitaker next Tuesday.
Lane was charged with the murder of
his wife near Alden last fall. He also
attempted to kill his son-in-law, but
was unsuccessful. He was under the
influence of liquor at the time.

The very men who raise this
issue are the men who have found
fault so strenuously in the past with
those who have favored a protective
tariff, because the farmers had no part
lot in it. 1t was in response to
this complaint that a duty was placed
upon beef cattle, the product of tn
American farm Now that what they
complained of for not being done has
been done, these same complainers
are raising howl and saying the duty
on cattle and beef is the foundation
of the beef trust. 1t is so hard for
some people to be candid when dis
cussing a question that so materially
affects the living of so many of the
people of the country The trust
question in all its bearings ought to
be discussed on a higher ground than
that of petty partisan politics--Knox

eouelNe THE FARMERS.
Effect of Repeating Duties on Cattle
and Meats.


and Meats.
A contemporary which is somewhat
given to ejaculatory utterance advises
as a means of regulating the Beef
Trust the removal of all tariff duties
on foreign foods. This is simply a
proposition to subject the farmer to
whatever higher price the protective
he consumes, and expose him to low
free trade prices on things he pro
duces- The Beef Trust is but one of
many trusts, the purpose of which is
to obtain higher prices for their prod
ucts than could be obtained under
free competition When the farmer
buys wire to fence in his fields with
he contributes to the profits of a trust
When he buys plow he contrib uteS
to the profits of another trust. When
he buys salt for his cattle he pays
twice as much as he would if there
were no combination to fix an artificial
price on that necessary article of hui
man and animal cOnsum ption- But
when the farmer has beef to sell our
free trade contemporary says the
price must be regulated by the cost
of producing beef in other countries
Possibly our contemporary would
advocate like remedy for the regula-
ton of trusts engaged in the manufac-
ture of wire, p1ows and salt That.
however, involves free trade 1t
would be Impossible to repeal the du-
ties on goods made by trusts and to
maintain duties on goods in the pro
duction of which the hand of the
trust is not easily traced Absolute
free trade means internal revenue
taxes of about double the rates at
present collected. Nearly one-haIf of
our federal revenue comes through the
custom houses and if that is sacri-
feed the tax on home Industries must
be nearly or quite doubled Under
such conditions the export of manu-
factured goods would cease Foreign
goods would be imported at less than
| the cost of home production with in
/ terna1 revenue taxes added to the nat
Il ura1 cost. Instead of finding new mar
kets for our manufactured goods. we
should lose the markets we have

THE AMATEUR TARIFF TINKER


and Wage Earners-
Several days ago the Dispatch call
ed attention to the fact that Represen-
tative Roberts of Massachusetts, was
anxious to revise the tariff laws Mr.
Roberts was elected to congress as a
Republican, but since taking his seat
he has been painting terrible pictures
of what the people would do at the
next congressional elections if the ex-
listing laws were not modified He
is circulating a petition among his
colleagues calling for a caucus, at
which the question of considering the
necessity of tariff revision shall be
discussed, and. if possible. a program
for party action shall be adopted
If we understand Mr. Roberts cor
rectly, the only way the Republicans
can prevent the tariff being made the
sole issue of the next campaign IS by
placing certain articles on the free
list, and reducing the rates on others
If this is not done, says the Solomon
from Massachusetts, the Republicans
will be forced to assume the defen-
sive. with the result that the Demo
Gratis will control the next house
Mr.. Roberts should visit York or
| some other great manufacturing cen
| ter and ask few questions He would
| learn for instance, that the Dingley
! bill meets with the approval, not only
! of large employers, but of the men
| who labor He would soon discover
|
| be the worst thing the Republican
! party could do. His assertion that
unless we modify the bill. the Re
! publicans will be placed on the defen-
| sive.'' is ridiculous in the extreme
| Now that the silver issue has been
| buried there is only one question be-
| tween the two great parties, and that
| is the tariff. For years the RepubH-
cans have been successful because
they advocated protection to Ameri-
can industries, and when the people
so far forgot themselves to elect a
Democratic president and the make
shift known as the Wilson bill emerg-
ed from the halls of congress as a
result, business received such stag
gering blow that it took the nation
years to recover
Instead of being placed on the de-
fensive, Republicans, thanks to the
present law, are the aggressors, and
the Democratic leaders know it, not
| withStanding their assertions that
the tariff breeds trusts. England has
free trade, yet in the newspapers this
morning may be found articles telling
how business men in that country are
organizing to protect themselves
against American invasion" But
Democratic orators and editors will
not call British com mbinations trusts >
They reason that there can be nc
trusts without a tariff. The fact is
the tariff has no more to do with
trusts than a mountain with the
ocean, but if the Democrats can make
political capital with the cry, o1
course they intend to use it, The Re
publicans welcome contest on the
tariff, and good reason they should
for the full dinner pail is no dream
but an actual fact, and just long as
the leaders fatty refuse to threateI
the welfare of the business and labor
l world by tinkering with the tariff, jus
so long will the Republicans continue
to remain in power=York (Pa.) Dis
