SALOONS AND HARD TINES.

Times are never SO bad but the sal
oOns can make them worse.
The richer the saloon becomes, the
poorer becomes the man who patroni-
yes 1t.
The poorer becomes the man, the less
he can pay for groceries, and meat,
and shoes, and clothing.
The less he can pay for these things,
the more comforts he can get along
without, the more his wife must forego,
and the more his children must suffer.
For the sake OF the easily tempted,
who are trying to break the drink hab-
1t ard save their money, and for the
sake of their wives and children,
Vote No License
There are men who when liquor is
handy, use it, but who otherwise do
not touch it.
When there are saloons across the
street it causes men to lose their jobs
They are freQuented at noon times by
many. No license benefits all, and as
a resultthe poor man has money in his
pocket.
NO LICENSE a benefit ? Most de-
cidedly so. The saloon has bad in
nuence on boys. We do not want
them TO grow up'under its influence.

kcepS Importers Guessing.

"How old is Ann" is easy when COM
pared with that crazy quilt patchwork
puzzle the Dinglcy bill whose different
patches or rates of duty, were designed
by a thousand different manufacturers
and We're simply pieccd together Ivy
Congressman Dngley. Din@lcy, how
ever, still further raised the rates 50 as
to have a Grading margin that would
leave the trusts plcaty of protection
after we had swapped tariffs with nu
mcrOus foreign countries. according to
the original reciprocity plan. The man
ufacturers, after making the rates as
high as they dared, had inserted blind
paragraphs. "basket' clauses, etc, to
fool the uninitiated and to force the
rates on many articles much higher
THAI congress intended.
In this way. by compelling new and
unexpected claSSitications, the rates on
scores of articles have been forced up.
Hundreds of importers are kept guess
ing by this DinGley puzzle.
The pearl importers have recently
had the rate of duty forced up from 20
to 60 per cent. and this. too, after the
goods had been imported at the lower
rate and sold on that basis. The United
States circuit court decided on Jan. 19
that pearls imported in a box and ar
ranged in graduating sizes should be
classified as jcwelry and pay duty Of
GO per cent The same pearls on a pa
per would have the same value, but
would pay only 90 per cent duty. This
difference cost one importing firm S50,-
600 in one year.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1904-05-03

If there is one country on this green
earth that enjoys more tariff "protec-
ton" and that shows more favoritism
to monopolies and trusts than does the
United States, that country is Russia.
Although Russian protective duties
may not include as many articles and
protect as many industries as do our
Dinglcy duties, yet Russian protection
is intended to result in complete mo-
nopolies or trusts in many important
industries. Expectations have been
fully realized. Trusts and monopolies
now flourish in Russia. But the Rus
sian peasants are impoverished as nev-
er before.
The worst industrial and financial
crisis in Russia's history Is now on
there. 1t is so serious that even the
comptroller of the state to the cZar is
compelled to attribute it to the over
stimulation of domestic industries by
protective duties and government sub
sides.
