TARIFF AND IMPORTERS.

The Importer has come to see and TO
acknowledge that he is far better of
under Republican administration under
the operation of tariff law which
gives employment to our people which
gives them almost unlimited purchasing
power than when duties are low and
wages are low. with consequent dimi-
mutton of money with which to buy any
thing beyond the barest necessities OF
life. Consequently we find that a large
number Of our importers along The At
lantic seaboard are rallying, to the ban
ner OF Roosevelt and Fairbanks and
acknowledging openly that they pro-
pose to vote for the Republican eandi'
dates ON the sth Of mex, November.

Of that city, says:
From the remarks made to me by
some who have witnessed the play, i
am led TO the conclusion that The
sign OF the Gross Is q theatrical per
fcrmance which all NAV witness not
only with pleasure but also with
profit. 1t seems to awaken sentiments
akin to those excited in the soul OF q

the most complicated question which has
been before the people of any nation in
any age he is absolutely straightforward
and sincere meaning only to do justice
to every man. without regard to race,
color on condition. Such have been the
intentions of Theodore Roosevelt in the
past and such will continue to be his in
tentions in the future, and with such in
tentions and the courage 10 carry out
such convictions there need be no fear Of
injury to commercial interests or to any
social conditions in any part of our
great and glorious land.
How different it is with the demo
cratic nominee. who seems to grow weak
err and weaker with his party every time
he makes public utterance. Judge
Parker's letter of acceptance will do him
as much harm as letter possibly could
do a man who never had any show at

THE DICK FOWLER
TO LEAVE TRADE
Fast Steamer to he Sold by the
Fowler Company.
A New Boat will Be Built For the
Paducsh- Cairo Trade as Soon
as Possible.
MEMPHIS MEN AFTER A BOAT

The handsome Dick Fowler may nevc,
again be seen in theNairo and Paducah
trade. II was little thought when she
went to the bank few weeks ago on
account of low water that il might b,
her last trip in the trade. but il is not
only possible. but probable.
The Fowler is now for sale. Capt. 10,
Fowler this morning verefed the report
that her owners wanted to sell her. and
stated that when she was sold he would
be ready to make more definite an
nouncement in regard TO the future trad'
between Paducah and Cairo.
1t is understood in river circles that
the Fowler company will build smaller
boat for the trade. Not only do they
need a light draught boat ON account q,
the annual low water season. but be
cause the new railroad now in operation
between Paducah and Cairo has m-
doubtedly changed conditions to some
extent.
II is said the new steamer viii have
forty foot beam. II will no doubt b.
an easy matter to sell the Dick Fowler
as there is not better boat nor faster
boat on the Ohio river for her size.
The Dick Fowler has been favorit'
in these waters for many years. taking
the place of the Gus Fowler. Capt. Fowl
err said today that the company had re
ceived offers for her, but had not solt
her. The new boat will be able to run Il
