A Mistake in Hats

A well known merchant of Boston,
who prides himself upon his bump of
order, went over to New York recent
ly on business. Arriving by the boat,
he repaired to his usual hostelry,
whence, after a hasty breakfast in the
cafe, he departed for the city. That
afternoon he found it necessary to
come to Philadelphia, and was gone
over night. Getting back to New York
the next noon, he concluded his bust
ness, and at night went to his hotel
and sought the table d'hote for a sub
stantial meal.
Now, it is boast of this gentleman
that in all his business career he has
lost but one umbrella, and never a
hat. He was at much pains to place
his hat in an obscure corner of the
public rack in the hall. Coming out
again, he CROPPED for an instant in the
selected hiding place, and then proud
ly drew forth the shining tile and was
about to put it upon his head, when he
felt his hand forcibly arrested.
You've got my hat there said a
red-faced and angry-looking man, who
was holding his wrist.
He of the bump of order smiled a
suave and superior smile. "Oh, no,

for protection. It stands for the gold
standard and our currency system
All these dwell in legislation enacted
under the lead of the Republican par
ty and against the most determined
opposition of the Democratic party,
including its leader and candidate
These being our policies, and having
been most useful to the country, we
have confidence in and love them. II
it be necessary from time to time that
they should be strengthened here and
controlled there, the Republican party
stands ready, with loving, competent
hands, to apply the proper remedy
1 say remedy Being our policies, we
will not willingly subject them to
their enemies for slow starvation on
the one hand or to sudden destruction
on the other.
Since the Republican party was
restored to power, in 1897, under the
lead of Mckinley, our country has
prospered in production and in COM
merce as it has never prospered be-
fore. In wealth we stand first among

hesitate to declare himself in har-
mony with the proposition that pro-
lection is and must continue to be the
settled, permanent policy of the Re
publican party when he said:
I'VE have enacted tariff law un-
der which, during the past few years,
the country has attained height OF
material well being never before
reached. Wages are higher than ever
before. That whenever the need arises
there should be readjustment of the
tariff schedules is undoubted; but
such changes can with safety be made
only by those whose devotion to- the
| principle of protective tariff is be
yond question; for otherwise the
| changes would amount not to read
| justment, but to repeal. The read
| justment when made must maintain
| and not destroy the protective prin
ciple. To the farmer, the merchant
| the manufacturer. this is vital; but
perhaps no other man is so much in
| terested as the wage worker in the
| maintenance of our present economic
| system, both as regards the finances
| and the tariff. The standard of living
| of our wage workers is higher thar
| that of any other country, and it cal

! tective tariff which shall always keel
cient to cover the difference between
the labor cost here and abroad. Thos'

protection as a robbery thereby ex-
plicitly commit themselves to the
proposition that if they were to re-
wise the tariff no heed would be paid
to the necessity of meeting this diff
ference between the standards of iv-
ing for wage workers here and in
other countries; and therefore on this
point their antagonism to our position
is fundamental.
Here again we ask that their
promises and ours be judged by what
has been done in the immediate past.
We ask that sober and sensible men
compare the workings of the present
tariff law, and the conditions which
obtain under it, with the workings of
the preceding tariff law of 1894 and
the conditions which that tariff OF
1894 helped to bring about
The fundamental difference in the
attitudes of the two parties on the
subject of protection is herein stated
with great force. The Republican par
ty stands committed to the doctrine
that only through the operation of the
protective policy is it possible to
maintain the American standard of
living, while the Democratic party,
caring nothing for the American
standard of living, but intent, now as
always. upon cheapening and degrad-
ing American labor, brazenly- antago-
nizes protection both as to principle
and policy by denouncing it as rob
berry" of the many for the benefit OF
the few. No matter il protection does
maintain high wages and a high
standard of living Being robbery
of course, protection must go. That is
the Democratic attitude.
Upon the general subject of reel
procity President Roosevelt said:
I'VE believe in reciprocity with for
| eign nations on the terms outlined in
President McKinley's last speech
which urged the extension of our for
eign markets by reciprocal agree
ments whenever they could be made
| without injury to American industry
and labor"
| BY this rule there can be no reel
procity in products which compets
with American industry and labor.

That nobody ever has known him to

And he makes you think. with his blithe

If they come to him with a doleful tale
of a neighbours faults, they always fail
To rouse attention to what they tell.
At such time he can't hear very well;
But if they praise up neighbor-then
He can hear well the best of men.
He always indorses the good things said
BY his friends of the living well

THE ISSUE DEFINED
SPEECHES OF PRESIDENT RoOsE-
WELT AND SPEAKER CANNON.
Alike In the Address of Notification
and in the Response Thereto, the
Predominance of the Tariff Cues
ton is Distinctly Recognized.

The two speeches delivered at Oys-
ter Bay on the 9th of July, 1904, first
by Speaker Cannon as chairman OF
the committee appointed by the Re
publican national convention to notify
Theodore Roosevelt of his nomination
for President of the United States;
and, second, the speech of President
Roosevelt, giving notice of his accept
ance of that nomination-have set
tied the question as to what is the
dominant issue in this years cam
paign. If any doubt remained con-
corning the chief issue. almost the
only issue, which divides the two
great parties in the civic battle OF
1904, such doubt has been completely
removed. The tariff is the issue. 1t
has been made the issue by the plain
words alike of the authorized spokes-
man of the Republican party and OF
the candidate chosen by the unani-
nous action of the Republican party.
In his address of notification Speak
er Cannon devoted his attention to
the tariff more largely than to all
other subjects combined. After dwell
ing briefly upon the splendid history
of the Republican party in its rela-
ton to the shaping of events and pol
icies, Mr.. Cannon said:
Under the lead of the Republican
party for over forty years the United
States, from being a third-class pow
er among the nations has become in
every respect first. The people rule.
The people ruling, it is necessary that
they should be competent to rule.
Competency requires not only patriot
ism, but material well-being. educa-
tinn and SfafQcraft
1.-THE people, under the lead of the
Republican party, wrote upon the stat
| ute books revenue laws, levying taxes
upon the products of foreign countries
seeking our markets, which replen-
| ished our treasury, but were SO ad-
| justed as to encourage our people in
| developing, diversifying and maintain
ing our industries. at the same time
| protecting our citizens laboring in pro-
| duction against the competition of for
eign labor. Under this policy our man
| ufactured product to-day is one-third
Of the product of the civilized world,
Western Kansas world. [volume] (WaKeeney, Kan.) 1885-current, 1904-09-10

and our people receive almost double
the pay for their labor that similar
labor receives elsewhere in the world,
thereby enabling us to bear the bur-
den of citizenship.
Liberal compensation for labor
makes liberal customers for our prod
ucts. Under this policy of protection
our home markets afford all our peo-
pie a better market than has any
other people on earth, and this, too,
even If we did not sell any OF our
products broad. In addition to this,
we have come to be the greatest ex-
porting nation in the world For the
year ending the Both of June, 1904,
our exports to foreign countries were
valued at $1,40O, 100000. of which
$450. 100000 were products of the fac
tory. The world fell in our debt last
year $47O, 900 900, an increase of $751;
100000 over the preceding year.
This policy of protection has al
ways been opposed by the opponents
of the Republican party, and is OPP
posed by them to-day In their last
national platform. adopted at St
Louis, they denounce protection as
robbery. They never have been given
power, but they proceeded by word
and act to destroy the policy of pro-
lection. Their platform is as silent as
the grave touching the gold standard
and our currency system Their chos-
en- leader. after his nomination. hav-
ing been as silent as the sphinx to
that time, sent his telegram saying.in
substance that the gold standard is
established, and that he will govern
himself accordingly if he should be
elected"
Later on in his speech Mr.. Cannon
returned to the subject Hppermost in
his mind, as follows:
Correct revenue laws, protection
or free trade, the gold standard and
our currency system, all depend upon
the sentiment of the majority of our
! people as voiced at the ballot box.
A majority may change our revenue
laws, a majority may change our cur.
rency laws: a majority may de
stroy the gold standard and establish
the silver standard, or, in lieu of eli
Their or both. make the treasury note
non-interest bearing and irredeem
| able, the sole standard of value.
