The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1903-05-15

Pittsburg Gazette: The various
eastern democrats, except Cleve-
land, who have from time to time
had their names associated in the
public prints with mention Of the
democratic nomination for the
presidency, are in at least temporary
eclipse. The Hill boom collapsed
when Bird S. Coler failed to capture
tho governorship of New York. The
Olney boom doomed in night and
then wiltsd. Tie Parker boom
never had any real strength, the
Judge being deemed generally a
good man. but OF uncertain weight.
The Gorman boom really never
doomed. partly because Mr.. German
himself did not seem to consider
wind and weather favorable. In
the west, owing to the circumstance
OF continued republican supremacy
lin Cincinnati. The Ingalls, boom
died before it was born. The Tom
johnson. boom, which has it's head
quarters in Cleveland, enjoyed a
brief mention after his success in the
city campaign, but was up against
the circumstance that the Harrison
boom in Chicago had just as good
claim to be fertillzed with national
democratic favor. The Harrison
boom, being as provincial or as
purely municipal as the Tom John
son boom, has ceased to attract
attention. Thus east and west there
is gradual elimination of possibili-
ties. and amid the wreck of matter
and the crush of worlds of hope two
figures loom preeminent, the one
on the eastern and the other on the
western horizon, as rivals for the
favors of Miss Democracy.
More and more it looks as if these
two must joint in death grapple
as champions of rival schools of
democratic party thought. OF
course, there is no telling what
day may bring forth, but, in spite
of Bryan's declarations that he
won t and Cleveland's that he will
not, the divinity that shapes men g
ends regardless of how they rough
hew them or what their plans may
he, in forcing them to the center of
the stage, into the full glare of the
limelight, there to have it out until
the committee on credentials or the
roll call decides who's who in the
democratic party, or, to be more
accurate, what's what, for it is what
rather than who that -is in the
blanace, for who represents what.
The contest promises to be a sharp
one, but, as has been pointed out
before, it is less an attempt to get
in position for 1904 than to get the
democratic party shaped and
harmonized for 1908.

Australian liner Moana are to the effect
that the Union Steamship Company. of

HANALEI MAY
NOT GET AWAY

There seems to be some doubt as to
whether the Hanalei win get away for
Midway Island with the cable staff to-
day. after all. There is lot of freight
to be loaded on her yet. and it will
take some work to dispatch the ship
on time. In fact. it was said around
the Inter-Island wharf yesterday that
she could not possibly make it until
Tuesday morning. However, a deter
mined effort win be put forth. and if it
is within the bounds Of possibility the
steamer win get dispatch on time.

CAN REPAIR
SHIPS ABR DAD

The Collector of Customs has receiv-
ed number OF decisions from the
Board of General Appraisers in New
York that will be of interest to mer-
chants and shipping men. About year
ago the American ship A. B. Jackson
came into this port from Newcastle.
Australia, at which place it had been
necessary for her to undergo somewhat
extensive repairs to make her fit to
put to sea. The tariff law is very
plain in the provision that when Amer
lean vessels are repaired in Canadian
ports, the material used in making the
repairs is dutiable under the laws, and
as Newcastle is at least as foreign as
Canada, the repairs to the Jackson
were assessed. The Appraisers rule.
however, that while, owing to it's near
ness to America. repairs made in Can
ada may as well be made at home-in
fact, may often be made there because
the material is cheaper than at home
a ship sailing from Australia or any
distant foreign port is an entirely diff
ferent case altogether. inasmuch as
her repair there may be matter of
absolute necessity before putting TO
sea. And the duty levied upon the
jackson is therefore RENTED.
The Appraisers give judgment
against the firm of Macfarlane & Co.
In the matter Of their appeal from the
levy made upon an importation of
railway sleepers. The firm claimed
that this shipment should come in as
bar iron, and the customs authorities
assessed it as manufactured iron. The
contention of the customs authorities
is sustained
The customs authorities have also
been sustained in their contention that
any part of the equipment of a ship
purchased abroad is dutiable.
In the matter of the importation OF
Chinese string made. of the galingale
rush, the collector is sustained in his
that the stun is made of
the rush. but the Appraisers hold that
the mere splitting OF the PUSHES can
hardly be held to be manufacturing
process under the law. And the Chi
nese get their string in duty free.
