THURSDAY EVENING,

denim the republican party for the enact
ment and maintenance of tariff law
which fosters trusts and enables certain
combinations and corporations to charge
American consumers eXorbitant prices
for their products while selling the same
class Of goods abroad at lower prices. We
condemn the business methods Of the
steel trust as striking example of the
infamous workings of certain schedules
of the Dingley tariff law. 1t is a notorious
fact that this trust is selling the products
Of its factories to European consumers at
prices abroad rs to 40 per cent less than it
charges American consumers for the
goods Of the same class. Any law that
permits American manufacturers to rob
American consumers, either directly or
indirectly is a wrong in morals, UNI
American, un-democratic and sub
versive Of good government, and
so far as it operates we demand its i'm
mediate and unconditional repeal.
I'VE believe that the state should not
grant Of it's sovereign power to corpora
lions to be exercised in the lawful Oh.

pledge ourselves to cause to be instituted

A FEW BRUISES
Otherwise the President Seems to Be
All Right.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Sept. 4.-President
Roosevelt returned home at $40 o'clock
last night. "
His right cheek is swollen, there is a
black bruise under his right eye, and his
mouth is slightly swollen. Otherwise he
shows no effects Of the accident. He will
go south the latter part of the week, &C
cording to the original schedule, and
will be accompanied by Secretary Cortel-
you, who, while considerably shaken up,
expects that his injuries will not incapa-
ciate> him from duty. Mr.. Cortelyou' s
nose is badly bruised There is a lump on
the back of his head and bruises behind
his left ear and on his body.
The president says he may have to
make his first public appearance with a
black eye and swollen face, but that the
accident has not interrupted his work for
ten minutes and it. will not interfere with
his southern trip. The president is
pledged to attend the annual conference of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
at Chattanooga, Tenn, Monday, and he
would not on any account disappoint the
brotherhood. 1t Is well known fact that
the president holds railroad men in very
high regard and he anticipates great
pleasure in meeting the Brotherhood of
Firennen next week.

TEXAS OIL AS A FUEL
The Geological Survey Believes It
Will in a Measure Take
Goals Place.

From The journal Bureau, Room Is, Post
Building, Harrington.
Washington, Sept. 4.-The geological
survey believes that Texas oil can be made
a formidable competitor Of coal for fuel
purposes, and Charles w. Hayes of the
survey is now preparing for publication a
paper In which tho strong points of oil
are set forth. He made the trip to Texas
to study the question, and his report will
he of interest, owing to the present strike
in the anthracite coal regions. About
900 barrels Of Texas oil were sold
last year for fuel purposes at from Is to
80 cents per barrel. No economical meth
cd has been discovered for using this oil
for Illuminating purposes, and many ex-
perts think no such discovery will be
made. From present indications. there
fore. the use of Texas oil is likely to be
confined to fuel 1t is being used quite
extensively on many railroads Of the
southwest. 1t Is also being largely used
for manufacturing purposes. Mr. Hayes
has estimated that this oil has a fuel
value of a least So a barrel compared with
anthracite coal at $3.50 or 81 ton. 1t
has sold up to the present time for about
one-tenth Of this estimate of it's fuel value
