DOES NOT LIKE TOURISTS.
Missouri Editor Vents His Opinion Of

Wanderers on Earth's Surface.
Since his recent visit to Havana.
Cuba. where he dined with men from
every part of the world. Bob White of
the Mexico (Mo.) Ledger seems to
have taken antipathy to tourists as
q class. In q recent issue OF his pa
per he says: 1.-The party was not a
large one, either'-the world isn't
very large after all. Mr. White
.-roasts" the tourists, and especially
the Americans, who are now doing
Havana by thousands. "a regrettable
feature of the tourist" he writes, s'is
the absolute lack of consideration
found among many of them-their
ruthIessness-and disregard for the
privacy of homes, sacred edifces, OF
wherever else their bent takes them
They enter the grand old churches
during sacred service, when the con-
gregations are devoutly and silently
following the impressive services.
They explore all parts of the building,
talking in loud tones, crossing and re-
crossing, sometimes with their hats
on, between the kneeling congrega-
ton and the altar, swapping their ko-
oaks at whatever objects attract them
most
with what disgust must the peo-
pie here regard such demonstrations
what contempt must they feel to-
ward this class. At the present
amazing progress of this grossness,
hoggishness, we could well say, we
may soon hear that all the churches
in the city have been closed to visit
ors- Were the Cubans to go to the
states and conduct themselves as
many Americans do here, it is GER
tain that they would be very sum-
marily dealt with, and they would de-
serve It, as do that class of Ameri-
cans to whom so much forbearance is
now being shown in Havana"

1904 TARIFF ISSUE
HOW TO TEST THE QUESTION OF
REVISION.
Should the Republicans Stand for
Business Stability and the Demo-
Gratis Urge the Abandonment of
Protection, Which Would Win?

Referring to the 'Let-well-enough-
alone" doctrine advocated by Secre-
tary Root in his Boston speech, the
Minneapolis Journal says:
But If times continue good the doc
trine of leaving things to themselves
will be just as good. in 1905 as now,
and that sort of postponement cannot
be kept up very long IL the tarin is to
be revised by it's friends.
There is probably not one man in
a thousand in the United States thar
does not expect to see business and
Industrial reaction in this country
sometime within the next ten years,
and many expect it within the next
five When that reaction comes 1t
will be too late to talk about having
the tariff altered by it's friends. The
people are more likely to be in a
mood to have it altered with a broad
ak by its enemies
This question can be tested-and it
will very likely be so tested-in a
simple and direct manner. Thus:
Let the National Republican conven-
ton next year resolve that
Tariff stability is a vital need of
all business, industry, trade and COM
merce. Therefore, as the country is
now in a highly prosperous condition,
any revision of the tarff at this time
is uncaIled for, unwise and unwar-
ranted."
Then let the National Democratic
convention next year assert its plat
form that
1.-THE existing protective tariff is a
robbery and a tax; it obstructs bust
ness; it shelters monopoly; it permits
combinations of producers tS plumber
the consumers; it makes the rich rich
er and the poor poorer. Therefore the
tariff should be Immediately repealed
and in it's place tariff for revenue
only should be enacted"
Going before the country upon the
tariff issue thus sharply and clearly
defined, which party would carry the
Presidential election in 1904? From
present indications that issue is likely

FOR THE WHOLE COUNTRY.
The President Not in Favor Of In
ternaI Tariff Eavoritism.

The President Not in Favor of In
ternaI Tariff Favoritism.
Let well enough alone,'. was
sentiment that appealed to the pros
porous people of this prosperous ma
ton in the campaign of 1900. Go on
letting well enough alone" will be
the talk in 1904. President Roosevelt
recognized this when he said in Min
neapolis:
In making any readjustment there
are certain important considerations
which cannot be disregarded. If
tariff law has on the whole worked
wellI and If business has prospered
under it and is prospecting, it may be
better to endure some inconvenience
and inequalities for a time than by
making changes to risk causing dis
turbance and perhaps paralysis in
the industries and business of the
country"
The tariff speech of the President is
a direct sequel to his able review of
the subject of the trusts. He points
out that the question of revising the
tariff is in no wise related to the trust
issue. In his Milwaukee speech, he
told about certain physicians who
could cure diseases, but were not so
sure about saving the life of the pa
tient- 1t is easy to put the corpora
lions, trusts and otherwise, out of
business, by making lines hard
enough. But that is not the remedy
obviously.
The President would, above all,
preserve the protective principle,
which has done so much to strengthen
the position of the American working
man at home He would approach
with caution such changes as are sug-
gested from time to time, with due
reference to their Importance to s.the
nation as whole" Evidently Roose-
welt is not in sympathy with the New
England fdea," which is to let in
everything free that New England
wants to buy and slap a high duty on

UNIQUEJEWISH TOWN
WooDBINE, IN NEW JERSEY, HAS
STRANGE HISTORY.
Founded Twelve Years Ago by He
brew Refugees from Russia-Is Now
a Prosperous Settlement-The Only
Place Governed Entirely by Jews.

Woodbine, a colony of Russian He
brews in the northern part of Cape
May county, N. J., was recently or
gained by the New Jersey legisla-
ture into a borough with a political
identity of its own. Of1cers were
elected, and it now enjoys the distinc-
ton of being the only place in the
world governed entirely by Jews 1t
was formerly a part of the township
of Dennis.
The colony had it's beginning twelve
years ago when the Russian perse-
cution of the Jews was at it's height
and when Hebrews in France and
England were doing all they could to
get their people out of the Cars en-
pire. 1t was founded through the gen.
crosby of Baron de Hirsch.
He sent three men to Cape May
county in the spring of 1891 to buy
land and to establish there refuge
and a home for the sufferers who were
being brought to this country by the
boatload and dumped into New York's
already overcrowded Ghetto. They
got $500 acres, including all of Wood
bine proper, which at that time
consisted chiefly of three shanties, oc-
cupied by railroad employees.

almost the last place one would
choose for a home and certainly about
the last place an American farmer
would select
The three men built cabins and did
what they could in the way of clearing
bits of the property. A year later
thirty immigrants came to the place.
None of them had any money, none
could speak much English and none
knew anything about farming.
They got aid from the De Hirsch
fund, slept in stables, suffered many
privations and worked hard. They
learned something about clearing and
blowing and planting from the men
who had come before them, and they
got little knowledge of American
business methods from contact with
merchants in the neighboring places.

Mark Twain Was Too Smart

work and had to hustle for a job
talked to a number of captains, but
none of them wanted a pilot. Finally,
met man who said there was va

could qualify. He asked me about my

schooling and so on. Then he said:
Now, for the main thing Do you

New Grand Vizier of the Turkish EN-

sible for Much of the Present Trou-
BILE.
Servians and Bulgarians, while there
is a small minority which, knowing
what Austria has done in Bosnia, looks
to her, and yet another minority
which looks to Italy. There are thus
no less than seven conflicting forces
in the field. The Servian will not give
way to the Bulgarian, or the Bulgarian
to the Greek; there has, indeed, al
ready been one war between the minor
states in this part of the world, aris-
ing solely from these racial animosi-
ties and jealousies. 1t would not ac-
cord with the secret desires of more
than one great Power to see this mass
of hostile communities welded into
one coherent whole, nor is such a
thing as yet practically attainable.
Yet until this contamination is reached
the Balkans must remain a prey to
turbulence, intrigue and Unsurpassed
hostilities. 1t lies, then, with the dis
cordant races of the Balkans to work
out their own salvation by finding
some means of union and confedera-
ton. They must do what Italy
achieved forty years ago, but for that
they need Cavour, a House of Savoy,
and generation of heroism and self
sacrifice.-London Daily Mail.
