for the courts to settle judicially.
Extremely Critical.
Mr.. Gonzales wound was dressed
announced that the stricken man
was holding his own and doing as well
as could be expected but that the
odds were greatly against his. recovery.
Lieut.. Gov. Tillman. who had done
the shooting, took things quietly and
calmly during the day in the county
Jail, where he had conf orta bic room
on the second floor. He had some new
furniture brought to his place of con-
fnement and made himself comfort
able. Some visitors called on him but
most of the day he spent in consulta-
ton with his lawyers, Congressman
George w. Croft, Former Judge o. w.
Buchanan and Mr.. Coleman l.. Blease.
Statement by Tillman.
Two of his counsel gave out with,
request that it be published the fol-
lowing statement prepared by Mr..
Tillman himself in response to a tele-
gram from New York newspaper: 81
can only say that when the truth. of
the unfortunate affair is known, nv
friends, as we'll as the people, will
know how thoroughly I was justified
in acting as l did. The statements al
ready published in the papers are I'M
true and at the proper time this, l will
be prepared to show. Beyond this
do not care to make any further state
ment"
Probable Defense.
1t is understood here that Mr.. Till
mans line of defense will be that he
thought Gonzales was armed and that
he had a weapon in his Goa pocket and
that he had his hands in HIS coat
pocket. He is said to contend that he
had every reason to believe that Mr..
Gonzales was armed. Mr.. Gonzales
friends state that he was not armed.
Mr.. Tillman will claim that when he
aimed his pistol the second time at
Mr.. Gonzales that he did so expecting
Mr.. Gonzales to defend himself and
that he lowered his weapon because
there was no response a nd not because
of anything Mr.. Gonzales said Mr.:
Tillman, it is understood, also will con-
tend that he had not meet Mr. Gonzales
before. This is denied by Mr.. Coma les
friends. who say Mr.. Coma les and Mr..
Tillman were i'm the sena te chamber
and the state capitol together.

as Fir. Dick seems to think, a mark
of mental superiority; it is rather the
stamp of craven minds, knowing poi-
icy only and never truth
Take the country over. and Mr..
Clarke, if he has the dexterity, can
find in republican differences paral-
lei for every democratic embarrass-
ment which Mr. Dick so jauntily ex-
PLOTS. He may for example, ask
whether Hanna belongs with tariff
revis;onists like Babcock and Cum
Minis, or with standpatters like Aid
rich and Payne. Does he favor Cuban
reciprocity, with Roosevelt. or stand
with the insurgents" against it?
Does he go the limit Of imperialism
with Root. or shout for consent Of
the governed" with Hoar? Is he for
gold with Lodge or silver with Carter
and Wolcott? Will he say with Sec
rotary Root that the war amendments
are a failure, or support the Payne
proposal to enforce them to the letter
on the Southern representation in
congress?
Ii will be a sad day for the republi-
can party when it is brought wholly
under the dominion of the Ohio idea
of intellectual abasement before the
party whip; when Independent
thought and utterance within its
ranks is accounted crime, and pre-
ferment is the reward solely Of them
who believe only those things which
are laded out to them from the ma
chine of the boss. This is not yet
the forlorn lot of either party. and
perhaps there is this much truth in
Mr.. Dicks Indictment; that individual
freedom is greater in the democratic
party than in the republican camp.
1t has always been a debatable prob
lem whether as many republicans
would have bolted Mckinley as dem
ocrats bolted Bryan if the position of
the parties on the money question in
1896 had been reversed.

FARMERS TO GROW BEETs.
Industry FavorabIy Reported Upon BY
Sunnyside District Committee.

Sunnyside. Oct. 1.-This locality is
discussing the sugar beet proposition
A beet sugar factory is assured for
Prosser, and incidentally a railroad
for the Sunnyside district, on the
condition that the farmers will con
tract 10 grow $500 acres Of suga;
Deets for period of five years at the
price of $3.50 per ton. The Sunnyside
farmers are anxious for railroad, but
until recently did not take kindly to
the idea Of raising sugar beets. They
would only consent to grow them on
a small scale for the purpose of secu-
ring what they regarded the greater
benefit, a railroad.
Recently, however the situation
has changed. A committee of farm
ers-W. II. Norman, William Stahlhut
and D. B. F'ly-went over to La
Grande, Ore, for the purpose Of in
vestigating the conditions affecting
the sugar beet industry in the Grand
Ronde valley. They have returned
the farmers there are making from
$65 to $40 per acre net from growing
sugar beets. This far exceeds the
net returns from alfalfa, the principal
money-making crop Of this valley.
Since the report of this cOmmitte,
the farmers have been rapidly sign
ing up sugar beet contracts proposing
20 raise beets for the profits there is
in it, Over 2000 acres have been sub
scribed already in the immediate vi
cinity of this town. out Of 5000 acres
apportioned to the entire Sunnyside
country. The territory yet to be can
vassed comprises a large portion OF
the valley. and no doubt is now felt
that the entire acreage required viii

days.

Some short-siehted republican pa
pers are rejoicing because there is
a possibility that some time in the
future Great Britain under the lead
ership + Joseph Chamberlain may
abandon free trade. Il will be a sorry
day for the high tariff policy of the
United States when Chamberlain
scheme shall prevail Probably nine
tenths of the surplus grain crop Of
the United States is shipped 20 Great
Britain, 10 say nothing Of millions of
dollars worth Of other agricultural
products. Whenever Great Britain
shall lay discriminatory tariff duties
against American farm products in
favor of her colonies, this great for
eign market will be to a large extent
cut off. The result will be a Quitting
of the home market and low prices
for what the American farmer has to
sell. The farmers Of the country viii
soon learn what hurts them and they
will unite in a demand for reciprocal
trade relations with Great Britain and
other fOreien countries. That will
mean the lowering Of the protective
tariff and is final reduction to a rev
enue basis.
High protection may work very ad
vantagoously for the people practis
ing it until other nations play The
same game. Then nobody gains any
thing by it. High protection proyokes
retaliation by foreign nations. The
only relief is through mutual conces
sions made under reciprocity treaties
If England should adopt our higl
tariff policy, America will see the
hardest times in her history before
her trade relations are so adjusted
as to restore the markets los
through this retaliatory program.

LEADER
REPLIES TO CHARGES
Says Oath of Typographical Union
Does Not Interfere With Re-
Iigious Beliefs.

indianapolis. Ind.-President Lynch
of the International Typographical
union in the next issue of the organ
of the union will reply to charges that
the cath subscribed by the members
of the union is antagonistic and made
paramount to religious obligations.
1t is asserted the agitation was begun
by the Roman Catholic clergy. Prasi-
dent Lynch will say:
I'VE do maintain that we shall be
allowed to conduct our trade union
business without interference from
politics or religion, fraternity or COM
bination On the other hand, We do
not Interfere with the political Or
religious beliefs of any of our mem
bers. These beliefs are sacred to the
individual, and he is and always has
been at liberty, so far as the union
is concerned. to follow his bent in the
selection of religious, political and
fraternal organizations. Or he may
abstain from participation in them al
together. 1t is immaterial to the I'M
ion The union has it's field. and it
purposes to confine itself to that field.
From the persistence with which GER
tain newspapers have exploited the
attack made on our obligation by sew
eral clergymen the belief is forced
that these papers would not suffer
great grief should the International
Typographical union go ashore on
the religious and political rocks But
it is not doubted that the good com
mon sense Of our membership will
keep the union in safe waters, and
permit the attack that has been made
by those who may have been well
meaning and afterward used as a
newspaper sensation die Of hamilton.
And that is evidently just what is

SMART ALECK ANSWER.

ger to begin a speciOus plea with the

does in his answer to the John H.
Clarke challenge for a joint debate
with Senator Hanna 1t is clear
enough now, as was suspected from
the first, that Hanna never had tne
joint debate. What his equivocal
course meant was simply that he
wanted to draw Clarke out and then

NEW BISHOPS FOR NORTHWEST.

Winnipeg, Man., Oct. 1.-Clergy
and lay members to a total of sever
al hundred were present today at the
opening Of the synodical meeting Of
the Church Of England diocese Of Ru-
pert's Land. More than usual interest
attaches to the present meeting Of the
synod for the reason that the rapidly
increasing population of the territory
covered by the synod has increased
the needs of the church in like proper
zion. To provide for these needs the
meeting will elect a coadjutor bishop
for Rupert's Land and a bishop for
the diocese of Saskatchewan, which
heretofore has been presided over
by Bishop Pinkham of Calgary. The
work in the territories has now
grown to such an extent that it is ne
cessary to divide the two districts.

tie democratic gubernatorial nomina-
pro-railroad platform against Govern
or Mcbride as the railway commission
candidate. If Byrne had any poliji-
cal sense he would know that a dem
ocrat posing as the railroad candi-
date for governor would have just
about as much show to win
as Chinaman has to become
president of the United States.
The democratic party of this
state. while not opposed to railroads
and other corporations as such, is on
record as favoring their just regula-
ton and taxation. For years the
party in this state has declared for
lower freight rates and in the last
campaign the party took a decided
stand in favor of a railway commits
sion to regulate rates and fares. For
the party next year to repudiate this
record and come out as the champion
Of the railroads would be so nauseat-
ing a spectacle that the people would
bury the party's candidates out Of
sight regardless Of their personal
merits. If the democratic party is to
be known as anything more than an
organized appetite for office it must
adhere to its traditional principles
and fight it out on that line till the
people shall be ready o turn from
their false gods and return to the
pure doctrine Of the fathers. Even if
victories are not gained the rank and
file Of the party will have the salts
faction of knowing that they have
stood for what they believed to be
right and that they have not sacrific-
ed honor for spoils.
If there are any members Of the
democratic party who belong to the
organization merely to get office, they
are making a big mistake. The his
tory Of the last forty years has proven
that the most promising place for the
spOilshunters is in the republican
party. Many alleged democrats in
this county and state as we'll as in
nearly every other northern state have
come to realize this fact within the
last six years of democratic adver-
sity and they have made haste 10
take themselves bag and baggage into
the republican camp. where they have
lined up at the pie counter with the
avidity Of old veterans. In fact some
of them have manifested such fiery
zeal in their new faith that they have
been almost Immediately rewarded
with fat jobs and they are now con-
graduating themselves on their wis
dom and thrift.
1t must be said that the course of
these pseudo democrats was more
cOmmendable than is that of men,
bers of the party who adhere to the
organization only to urge the party
to abandon its cherished principles
and espOuse any old thing that prom
Uses to capture the offices.
Ex-MayOr Byrne as the democratic
railroad candidate against such a
valiant champion Of the peoples
cause as Governor Mcbride would be
the worst beaten man in the history
Of the state This is no time for
democrats to be talking Of expediency.

the weather in the corn belt is ger

With prices so high we do not feel
like advising its purchase. At the

almost perfect to insure a large crop.

Chicago Grain.

CHICAGO. Ills, June 3O.-Wheat-
Market is active and lower. There
were further rains in the northwest
and the market took its own tone from
this. The approaching delivery day
on July wheat caused a good deal OF
liquidation by holders and added to
the weakness. Reports concerning
amount and distribution of the rains
are of course conflicting. 1t is prob
ably safe to say that a considerable
relief has been afforded. Cables are
indicating only steady markets
abroad. Cash situation Is slow. The
rusting returns from winter wheat
country still have a disappointing
tone and tendency. Reactions from
high prices last week on September
has been about four cents a bushel.
We are inclined to think this fully
discounts whatever influence dry
weather may previously have had on
the market, The weekly government
report admits some impairment in
conditions spring wheat crop. We may
