Leavenworth, Kan, April 27.-Consider-
able secrecy is still maintained as to the
extent of the flow of gas recently struck
at Bonner Springs in Wyandotte county.
A farmer from neighborhood of the
prospect holes said:
Three wells have been put down, one
at Captain Twister's, one on the Sharbert
place and one on the Kennyham place,
between Bonner Springs and Edwards
Vile Gas was found at the last place,
but to what extent, Mr.. Wood, who is do

however, for fact that enough has been
found to run the engine. Mr.. Wood has
leased almost all the gas and oil rights
down there and will bore another well

tariff, and against tariff reform gener-
ally, is the necessity of caring for our
infant industries. Many Of these in
dustries, after q hundred years of
lusty growth, are looming up as indus
trial giants. In their case, at least, the
Dingley tariff invites combination and
monopoly, and gives justification TO
the expression that the tariff is the
mother Of trusts.
For the above mentioned reasons,
among many Others, the people demand
reform of these abuses, and such re-
form demands and should receive i'm
mediate attention.
HOPE OF AID FROM THE SENATE
The two leading parties have always
differed as TO the principle of customs
taxation. Our party has always ad-
vanced the theory that the object is
the raising of revenue for support of
the Government whatever other results
may incidentally flow therefrom. The
Republican party, on the other hand,
contends that customs duties should be
levied primarily for protection, So
called, with revenue as the subordinate
purpose. thus using the power Of taxa
ton to build up the business and prop
erty of the few at the expense of the
many.
This difference of principle still sub
slsts, but our party appreciates that
the long-continued policy of the coun-
The Butler weekly times., 1904-10-06
FOR PRESIDENT!

try, us manifested i'll its statutes,
makes it necessary that tariff reform
should be prudently and sagaciously
undertaken, OH scientific principles, to
the end that there should not be an
immediate revolution in existing con-
ditions.
In the words of our platform we de-
mand "a revision and a gradual reduc-
ton of the tariff by the friends of the
masses, and for the common veal, and
not by the friends of its abuses, its
extortions and determinations"
In my response to your committee
pointed out the method under which
a gradual reduction of customs duties
may be accomplished without disturb
ing business conditions. | desire again
to express the opinion that this method
should be followed.
1t is true that the Republicans. who
do not admit in their platform that the
Dingley tariff needs the slightest alter
alton, are likely to retain majority
of the Federal Senate throughout the
next Presidential term, and could.
therefore, If they chose, block every
attempt at legislative relief. But it
should be remembered that the Re-
publican party includes many revision
lists. and believe it will shrink from
defying the popular will expressed nm
mistakably and peremptoriiy at the
ballot box.
The people demand reform of exist
ing conditions. Since the last Demo
cratic administration the cost of living
has grievously increased. Those hav-
ing fixed incomes have suffered keenly:
those living on wages, if there has been
any increase, know that such increase
has not kept pace with the advance in
cost Of living. including rent and the
necessaries of life. Many to-day are
out Of work, unable to secure any
wages Mt all. To alleviate these condi-
tions. in so far as is in our power.
should be our earnest endeavor.
COMMON LAW AND THE TRUSTS.
pointed out In my earlier response
the remedy, which in my Judgment.
can effectually be applied against mo-
nopolies, and the assurance was then
given that IL existing laws. including
both statute and common law, proved
The Butler weekly times., 1904-10-06

inadequate, contrary TO my expecta-
tiOnS. | favor such further legislation,
within constitutional limitations, as
will best promote and safeguard the
interests OF all the people.
Whether there is any common law
which can be applied and enforced by
the Federal courts, cannot be deter
mined by the President, or by candi-
date for the Presidency.
The determination of this question
was left by the people in framing the
Constitution, TO the Judiciary and not
TO the Executive. The Supreme Court
of the United States has recently con-
sidered this question, aud, in the case
Of the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany VS.. the Call Publishing Company,
10 be found in the one hundred and
eighty-tirst volume of the United States
Supreme Court reports, at page 81, it
decided that common law principles
could be applied by United States
courts in cases involving interstate
commerce, in the absence of United
States statutes specifically covering
the case. Such is the law of the land.
GREATER MARKETS NEEDED.
In my address TO the Notification
Committee | said that tariff reform lis
demanded by the best interests of both
manufacturer and consumer" With
equal truth II can be said that the ben
eiits of reciprocal trade treaties would
enure TO both. That the consumer
would be helped is unQuestiouable,
That the manufacturer would receive
great benefit by extending his markets
abroad hardly needs demonstration.
His productive capacity has outgrown
the home market. The very term,
home Market" has changed in It's
significance, Once, from the manufac-
turcrs' point of view, 1t meant expan.
sion; to-day the marvellous growth of
our manufacturing industries has far
exceeded tho consumptive capacity of
our domestic markets, and the term
"home market" implies contraction,
rather than expansion. If we would
run our mills to their full capacity thus
giving steady employment to our work
The Butler weekly times., 1904-10-06

men and securing to them and to the
manufacturer the profits accruing from
increased production, other markets
must be found. Furthermore, when
our manufacturers are dependent OH
raw materials in whole or in part i'm
ported. it is vital to the extension of
their markets abroad that they secure
their materials on the most favorable
terms.
Our martyred President, William
Mckinley, appreciated this situation.
He pointed out in his last address to
the people that we must make sensible
trade arrangements if I'VE shall extend
the outlets for our increasing surplus"
He said, "a system which provides Il
mutual exchange of commodities is
manifestly essential 10 the continued
and healthful growth of our export
trade. The period of exclusive
ness is past. The expansion of our
trade and commerce is The pressing
problem. Commercial wars are un-
profitable. \ policy of good will and
friendly relations will prevent re-
prisals. Reciprocity treaties are in
harmony with the spirit of the times:
measures OF retaliation are not"
This argument was made in the in
terests of our manufacturers, whose
products, he urged, "have so multi
piled, that the roblem of more mar
kets requires our urgent and immediate
attention" He had come TO realize
that the so-called "stand pat'' policy
must give way-that there must be
reduction of duties to enable our manu-
facturers to cultivate foreign markets.
McKINLEY'S LAST WORDS.
The last words of this President-wlo
had won the affection of his country
men--ought to be studied by every
man who has any doubt of the neccs-
slty of a reduction In tariff rates in
the interest of the manufacturer. They
present with clearness Il situation and
a proposed remedy that prompted the
provision In our platform which de-
clares that "We favor liberal trade ar
with Canada and with peo-
pies of other countries where they can
be entered into with benefit to Amrri.
