THE BURGLARY.

The crowds that thronged the
streets Tuesday and their evident
excitement showed the temper Of the
people in regard to the burglary at
S store. 1t is strange that
this should be so, especially since
such things are of everyday occur
renee. This is not the first time Mr..
Glllen has been robbed In fact
there is hardly a store in town which
has not been robbed on an average Of
once a month. Every time "A merchant
orders a bill Of goods he is robbed
from 25 per cent to 200 per cent of its
value. The robbery is effected through
the protective tariff. The protective
tariff robbery is 10 some respects
worse than the case at Gillen's store
Monday night. In that case the
culprit broke the window while the
people were asleep, crawled through
the broken pane like a sneak thief,
took only what he could conveniently
carry away, and tried to make his
escape under tue cover of darkness.
Tariff robbery resembles rather the
MONDAY bank operations of the Dalton
gang, in which two or three of the
company s%auntered in and filled their
pockets while their companions at the
door kept back outsiders who might
wish to render assistance. An army
of guards watches our nations ports
OF entry, delays and hampers with
prohibitive ~exactions those who would
come to the rescue, while the pro-
tected interests 60 through the land
and fiji their pockets with the earn

whatever from protective tariff.
II the exactions OF our tariff laws
went into the treasury Of the nation,
the descendants of the men who
century and a quarter ago burned
stamped paper and threw tea over
board might bear this hlghwayry
with some patience. But when
the people are familiar with the
calculation that where one dollar
goes into The treasury by Virtue

the pockets OF the protected interests,
it is strange that people should cou.

PARKER ON BRYAN.

seem inclined to think well Of him,
however. Certainly his remarks ia a

to talk about recognizing the demo

out, that no democrat could possibly
be elected PRESIDENT iu 1904 WHOM
Mr.. Bryan would not endorse. This
sounds very obvious and matter o.
course, but Judge Parker is the frs
big Eastern democrat to Stumble
upon this fact. Bryan has stood upOI

SPECIAL ELECTION.

BY an ordinance Of the council
passed Monday night the citizens will
be called upon to vote April IA, on a
proposition to abandon the special
charter granted 10 lS45 and amended
ia 1870 and to organize the city under
the general statutes applicable to
cities OF the 3rd class.
A careful perusal of the old charter
the amendments, and the various
statutes aimed at special charter
cities and a comparison of the same
with the general statutes applicable
to cities of the third class, reveals the
fact that no very material alteration
ic the organization and powers of the
city would be made by the proposed
change. The advantage to be gained
by the change is, that whereas in the
case of special charter cities every
doubtful clause of the charter must
be tested by a law suit and passed
upon by the courts, the meaning of
the statutes relative to cities of the
third class has been fixed by innumer-
able decisions, there being so large a
number of these cities.
For instance, there is a diversity OF
opinion among the lawyers as 70
whether property owners, under tie
present. charter, can be made to put
down and maintain sidewalks along
streets adjacent to their property II
matters not whether as individuals
we think that sidewalks should or
should not be put down and main
tanned in this way. The fact remains
that our fundamental law ought to be
perfectly clear upon this point, and
that we ought not have to endure
the expense and delay of litigation to
find out what the law means. The
same principal is involved in our
street paving case. The streets are
torn up and it will be two years or
more before we can find out what our
charter rights are. These two ques-
tions and hundreds of others just as
practical and important have been
passed upon by the courts in the case
Of cities of the third class.
1t can hardly be doubted that, if
this proposition were submitted to
the people without any specific and
immediate object in view, it would
carry by a vote of ten to one. But
since the street paving matter is a
case in point, the proposed change
wills doubtless be resisted by those
who oppose municipal improvements
through taxation of adjacent property
the only method by which towns of
this or any other size have ever
accomplished any considerable or con-
tinuous improvements and escaped
the fate Of those places which have
deliberately and %purposely dropped
out of the race and committed self
destruction.

0 D INVESTIGATION.

The Doodle investigation at Jeffer
son City gives every Indication of
turning out a farce. 1t was said two
weeks ago that 81, 900 bills were as
common as dimes about the capitol.
Speaker Whitecotten charged cor
ruption on the floor Of the house and
said that he could and would give
evidence leading to conviction.
The house ordered an Investigation
The circuit judge ordered a special
venire. The legislature expects to
adjourn next Monday. Whether
there has actually been any bribery
or whether various 'interests" have
been bled by local pirates claiming to
have a "pull" will probably never be
known. Only one of the 81, 900 bills
has been located, and that was not in
the hands of a legislator but a news
paper correspondent. Two 5000 bills
have been traced to a dismissed senate
clerk. Whether these men had been
posing as lobbyists or playing poker
no one knows, The investigation
seems to consist in rummaging the
pockets Of everybody except the leg
islators. The matter had better
never have been preached than to
have been bungled.

night had taken everything 10 Mr..
Gillen's store, it would have been less
than has been forcibly exacted from
him in the past five years by the
pirates who manufacture what he
sells. 1t is no %extenuation that they
treat his competitors in the same way
and that they are all thus enabled to
charge up these exactions to their
customers. Some one has TO pay for
it in the long run, and it is not the
pirates. The articles taken by the
burglar consisted chiefly of shot guns,
pistols, pocket knives, and tinware.
The tariff rates on these goods are
respectively 80 per cent, go per cent,
so S4-1OO per cent, and ga $500 per
cent. 1t is doubtless because Of its

WHERE me case IS DIFFERENT.

There is an interesting political
campaign going on 10 G Germany. The
sole issue is the tariff. The election
comes in June. The emperor has
already made several speeches and
will make others. In some respects
the case in Germany is precisely the
reverse of that in the United States.
There the mobiles W nearly all the
land, and the highest protective rates
are in the interest of the producers of
food stuffs. The population being so
great and the area Of the country so
small, not enough grain or meat is
produced for domestic consumption.
Hence the protective duties, while
yielding only a triling revenue to the
state, operate as as a daily fine against
everybody except those who own the
land, The emperor eats no more than
a bricklayer and pays no more daily
tribute to the landlords,
This state Of affairs is the same in
principle but 10 certain particulars is
precisely the reverse Of the cast in
this country. Here a tariff OF 500
per bushel on wheat would neither
yield revenue o increase the price of
the cereal, because we raise far more
than we can consume, and unless the
farmers could combine into a trust
they could not get any benefit from
the tariff. Here we exact tribute
from the producers of food stutfs and
give it to the manufacturers.
In spite Of the fact that the suffrage
is restricted in Germany there is much
stronger probability of relief from
their situation than from ours. Tax
on a mans daily food, especially when
it is not for the state but for some
favored individual, will bring CON-
plant more readily than tax upon
manufactured articles. For Instance,
two of our neighborS are nov erecting
business blocks in this city. For
every dollar spent for tin roofing So
cents will 60 as a special profit, over
and above Legitimate profit, to the
manufacturer Of tin plate. Likewise
in the case of nails, go cents for
every dollar spent for them; galyan-
lied iron moulding, 81 cents; lead
pipes, II cents; paint, 81 cents; glass
SO cents. This tax, in no case less
than half the value of the goods and
in some cases nine-tenths of the value
of the goods, will not go into the
treasury of the government, for these
things are not imported; they are
made in this country. The govern
ment might with just as good reason
legalize bank robbery,

THE NESBIT LAW.

The republicans in the legislature
do not seem to be as anxious to revise
the Nesbit law now as they did
during the campaign. The very
amendments proposed by republican
party managers last fall have been
introduced in the legislature and the
republicans refuse to permit them to
be called up for consideration. When
the next state campaign is on they
will take up the same hypocritical
howl about the injustice of the St.
Louis election law and want the dem
ocrats turned out so that they can
amend it.
1t is proceedings of this kind which
have brought the republican party of
Missouri into contempt. That party
does not want to do anything except
during state campaigns. Then it is
remarkably patriotic aud full Of sug-
gestions Of things that need to be
done. When the legislature meets it
becomes a Sodden opposition, 1t puts
itself in the way of everything which
is proposed to be done, unless the
thing is something which ought not
to be done. The behavior Of the
republican Legislators this year is of a
piece with their record for the past
quarter Of a century They have
but one party shiboleth-"Poor old
