Remedy for Businea. Par.1v.I..

When Mr.. Mckinley was elected Pres
dent in 1896 business was pcialyzed, the
revenues OF the government were not
equal to its expenditures and the Cleve-
land administration had borrowed large
sums of money to meet current expenses.
Eleven days after his Inauguration Pres
ident Mckinley had Congress in session,
and, pursuant to his recommendation,
1t passed the Dingley tariff bill, which
has restored prosperity. equipped am
pie revenues to the government and, in
the language of President Mckinley, has
"given labor in every field the useful oc-
cupation, the liberal wages, and the ade-
quate rewards to which skill and indus.

surpassing Importance.

To large section of the West the irri-
CATION bill, which promises to redeem to
agriculture millions of acres that are
now dry and barren. is by far the most
important measure OF the session. And
it is a measure of surprising importance: !:
one that has been under discussion for
many years. but has heretofore failed,
for the old reason that it was impossible
TO arouse sufficient interest in it outside
of the States directly affected. 1t is an
Improvement that will pay for itself MS it
progresses. for the whole cost is to be
defrnyel by the money received for the
sale Of lands, and the barren lands that
receive the benefits OF irrigation will at
once possess n value far beyond the cost
of the rovcment.-Brooklyn Times,

AN INFAMOUS ACCUSATION
Senator BaIiey's Charge that Rooss-
welt Advocates Lynch Law.

welt Advocate. Lynch Law.
Senator Bailey, of Texas. in n speech
made in Brooklyn, August -. and re-
ported in the class of Journalism known
as "yellow" and dsrcputnblc. declared
that the President had been an advocate
OF lynch law. The senator goes further
and becomes more definite. lie refers
to the shooting and lynching OF sixty
horse thieves in Montana and then makes
a blunt accusation against the man who
will be again President OF the United
States.
Here is man. said the speaker.
"who advocates lynch law as a penalty
for stealing. something upheard OF In my
part OF the country. Lynch law is ap-
piled there sometimes. but only for ono
crime, an unspcakabc crime"
Here IL n man, Senator from Texas,
who badly and recklessly makes the
statement from the platform that tho
President of the United States advo.
cntes lynching for certain crimes. The
thing is Infamous. but SO shallow and
so false upon its face that 1t cannot
affect the thought or action of any Amer
lean citizen. senator Bailey has he
come conspicuous in the political affairs,
not merely OF the largest State In the
Union, but In the conduct OF affairs by
has the gift OF oratory, he has a Ger.
tain forcefulness. but II is most unfor-
tunate that in the makeup OF his men.
tai composition he does not recognize the
fnct that orators should never tell bald
lies, even in the utmost heat Of q politi-
cal campaign.
The thing is so absurd, 40 utterly out
OF the question that one cannot under
stand why this Texas Senator was NO
lacking In tact, sense and judgment, ns
to intimate that Mr.. Roosevelt could
compromise with lynching under any cir
cumstances.
The attitude Of the President has nl-
why's been to demand the utmost observ-
nnce of all enacted laws. He has shown
IL at all times. throughout his whole
career, risking Mt one time. his political
future. by enforcing In the State Of
New York the laws. which he may not
have himself co,intennnced. hut any
where and everywhere he has shown him
self such delicate and forccful regard.
er OF all laws enacted. that, in this one
respect, he stands almost splcnddly
alone.
Now comes one Of the Senators Of
| the greatest State--in Hrea---in tho
Union and says that Thee, ore Roosevelt
| Is nm advocate OF lynch law! How came
| II that he has uttered such false and
foolish words?
The condition and mood and proper
| ton OF all things among the American
people IL such that no campaign OF VII
ication will be endured this year. SO
grossly in bad astc. 30 utterly inexcns.
able from my point of view, is this
assault from Senator Bailey. that II
passes almost beyond the realm Of ques'
tioning.

THE BUSINESS MEMS VOTE
Reasons Why It Should He Given Il
Republican Candidates.


Republican Candidates.
In the presidential elections of 1896
and 1900 the business men of the coun-
try exercised more decisive influence than
IN any other two national elections in our
history. They voted in greater numbers
than ever before and their vote was al
most solid in favor of sound money, pro-
lection of home markets. and the extern
sion Of foreign trade. 1t is hardly too
much to say that the conservative busi
ness vote of the country turned the scale
in 1896 and 1900 For this the business
Inen may well congratulate themselves
md enjoy the consciousness of having
done their duty and rendered great ser
vice to the country
But how about the coming election :?
The money question in its various phases
OF the gold standard, the currency and
the national banks is still threatened by
one wing of the Democratic party, while
the protection of home markets and the
opening of foreign ones is as important
as ever. The Democratic platform Is ST.
lent on the money question. Judge Par
ker says the gold standard is "irrevoca-
bly, hxed," but the Democratic party has
not said so. That party has been wrong
on every phase Of the financial question
|
Can it be trusted now?
Speaker Cannon, in his notification
speech to Mr.. Roosevelt, said that IL
Judge Parker's vote and support of his
party's candidate in 1896 and 1900 had
been decisive, 'wc would now have the
silver standard" There is something for
business men to think about. Judge Par.
ker claims to have repentcd and the par.
ty promises reform. Can they be trust
ed2
The question Of protecting home mar
kets and extending foreign markets il
one of vital Importance to business men
From business point of view it Is q
question of life or death. The Demo
cratic party favors n tariff policy that
would be fatal to both home and foreign
markets. 1t is no more worthy of the
support of business men now than it was
in 1896 or in 1900.

PARTY POLITICS.
Striking Contrasts Revealed by Study
Of Official Rcports.

ot outclei Ncportss
Ohicinl reports show that protective
tariffs have been in operation In tho
United States during practically one-haif
of the one hundred and fifteen years
since the adoption of the Constitution.
Oficinl statistics show that during fifty.
nine years OF low tarin there were but
ten years In which the exports OF tho
country were ms great ss tho imports.
and that during the entire 6fty-nins
years Of low tariffs the totnl excess OF
imports over exports was $4,000. COO.
A study of the commerce Of the protec-
tive years shows that exports exceeded
imports In twenty-seven of the fifty-two
protective years, and that the net excess
OF exports over imports during that time
was $4,000. 100000.
To state II In different form. low tariffs
in iiny-nine years OF operation show n
net excess of imports over exports of
S5l5 5.OOO,O 600. while protective Tariffs. In
ffty-two years Of operation, show a net
excess Of exports over imports Of 81.
b0O. .0O0, 900. Tho protective tariffs OF
fifty-two years have paid the commercial
debts Of the fifty.nine years of low tar.
IFS, amounting to $515. 1000 600. and. In
addition, placed 1880. 600 to tho
credit Of our export trnde.
Another striking example of the
growth Of our export trade under pro
.ectivs tariff Ia found In the fact that
tho excess Of exports over imports in
the first three years Of President Nc
Kinley'a term was nearly four times a'
much A. the entire excess of exports over
imports from 1790 to the beginning Of
the Mckinley administration. From
1900 to March I, 1897. the excess Of
exports over imports was $685., OBS .407
from March 1, 1907, TO March ]. 1900
the excess OF exports over imports was
81 .4s3 .637 ,Os9.

Official Testimony.

The report Of the Interstate Commerce
Commission for 1902 showed the total
number of railroad employees in the Uni
ted States to be 1,1S9.315. The report
says: "As compared with the statement
for 1901 this shows an increase of 49,
146. The return Of prosperity in rail
way transportation occurred about the
beginning of the year 1893 (thc second
year of the Mckinley administration.
The number of men employed on June
30, 1897, was S23, 3,476, showing an in
crease in railway employees during the

Add. to the countrv,. Wealth.

An act which has received less general
attention. but is nevertheless of impor-
tance, is that which provides for irriga
tion of arid and semi-nrd sections of the

The bugaboo of injurious competition
raised in some parts OF the East and

One of the Best of the eessiou.

On first consideration it would seem
that the irrigation bill possessed only
sectional advantages to the West, but it
really means much to the eastern mar
kets of this country. When President
Roosevelt succeeded to the presidency
the friends of irrigation found their
strongest ally, for one of the Presidents
first acts was to place himself in line
with the best irrigation sentiment of the
country. President Roosevelt, it is said.
regards the irrigation bill as one of the
best measures which his signature has
made a law.-Brooklyn Times.
