AN EASY CONUNDRUM.

When 1.-THE New-York Times tod It's amaz-
ing story of a half million contribution from
James ]. Hill to the Democratic Campaign
Fund it retracted the tale in day or Two, and
said a member of its own National Committee
had deceived it.
When the same journal publlsned the cal
jimmy about Lieutenant Governor Hlggins's hav-
ing helped TO defraud the State in a canal pay
ment, it delayed its retraction of that tale for
some weeks Then it expressed its belief that
there never had been any proof, and so far as
appears from its admissions, it had this time
deceived itself
When the same journal said it had positive
knowledge of concrete cases of blaekmail OF
Democratic corporations by Mr.. Cortelyou, it
promptly refused 10 produce any proof, and is
postponing still longer its retraction. When
that inevitable end comes, will it tell who de-
ceived it this time?
And meanwhile how much does 1t suppose
these successive occurrences tend to make the
public think it's word worth on any political
subject?

PARKER AND MEASURE OF PROSPERITY

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
After reading your article in tO-day's Tribune
referring 10 the seve.ai speeches made by Judge
Parker, take the liberty Of addressing few re-
marks to you.
In his address TO the Orange County farmers
Judge Parker compares the expenditure OF tho
present Republican administration with that under
Grover Cleveland. Judge Parker lays stress on rhs
amount believe $l76000000 by which the expeudi-
lures at the present time exceed the last Demo
cratic administration. but he fails to acqUaint his
audience with the fact that during the Cleveland
administration several hundred millions OF sod
coin were taken out of the National Treasury, and
when the stock gave out a big loan was made %

and other countries. while our laDpTCrS wer6

Conditions change and tho laws must be
modified from time TO time to fit new ext
gencics. But the genuine underlying principle
of protection, az it has been embodied IN all But
ono of the American tariff laws for the last
forty years, has worked out results SO benefit
cent, so evenly and widely spread, so advan-
taseous alike to farmers and capitalists and
workngmen, to commerce and trade OF every
kind, that the American people, If they show
their usual practical business sense, will insist
that when these laws modified they shall
be modified with the utmost care and oonserva-
tism and by the friends and not the enemies of
the protective system They cannot afford TO
trust the modification to those who treat pro-
lection and robbery as synonymous terms

THAT PHILIPPINE ISLANDER.

In a speech the Philippines, October 10
concerning the administration Of the islands,
as follows: First, that their government is cor
rupt inefficient and despotic; second, that ag-
riculturally the land is ruined and going to
waste; third that taxation is excessive; fourth,
that ladrOnes rule whole districts and terror
reigns fifth that there is no freedom Of speech,
that private citizens are under a system of es-
pOnage, and that the press is subsidized.
Overwhelming proofs that these vile charges
were false already existed, but they have since
been refuted in general and detail by Gov
ernor Wright a Democrat the highest posi-
BILE authority, of whom Judge Parker's stout
est champions frankly declare that his word
will be instantly accepted as the absolute
truth by everybody who knows him. without
the slightest regard to what Judge Parker may
think or say. In short, Judge Parker being
ignorant himself snatched at the unsupported
testimony Of an antl-imperialist witness, made
it his own, proclaimed it as established fact
pronounced violent condemnation on the able,
faithful, unselfish men who are responsible for
the management of Philippine affairs, and has
since repeated the SANDER. Judge Parker is
now daily making public professions Of lofty
devotion TO truth and honor, but he is too cow
ardly to retract one word of a series of ma
lcious falsehoods uttered in the hope of de-
ceiVing the public and capturing votes for
himCpIP

DEER ON LONG ISLAND.

The Nimrods set forth in large numbers for
the pursuit of deer on Long Island on Wednes-
day. There were only four days in which they
could hunt the graceful creatures this autumn
and it was we'll known that many of the timid
quarry could be found in various parts of the
territory. But it is true that rich men have
been increasing the size of their parks in re-
cent years, and most of the pursuers of the
nimble animals, not having the privilege of
sport on the extensive preserves in the south
eastern part of this State, were not success
ful in their quest for game. The Bohemian
Club sent nearly one hundred members in
search of deer, and succeeded in taking back
only eight victims. The total shot was less
than third of the array brought home on the
opening occasion last year On Wednesday
there were twenty killed. In 1903 on the open
ing festival the number slain was more than
sixty.
There will be one more occasion of shooting
tAs week, that is, to-day, and if the weather
remains as suspicious as Wednesday was. IL
will be fully improved. Two more opportuni-
ties will be presented for lessening the number
of animals next week, but it must be admit
ted that the tempting chances were so few M
the start that the attendance at the sport to-day
and on Wednesday and Friday OF next week
will be much smaller than might be expected

the huntsmen succeeded In Telling two deer

fortune when the total of victims was so small

"VE THE PLAIN PEOPLE,"

This is the way Judge Parker described him
self and his supporters at Carnegie Hall on
Wednesday evening: I'VE, the plain people Of
1.-The United States, stand ranged upon one
side Upon the other as I view it, stand the
forces which make for evil to the United
States"
I'VE, the plain people! What collection OF
plain people they are!
Henry G. Davis, the coal and railroad mag
nate, a beneficiary Of that coal tariff which
the Democrats have so vigorously denounced,
who advocates in general the protection which
Judge Parker in his next sentence denounced,
and who says the coal duties are not now high
enough.
August Belmont, the representative in Amer
ica of the ROthschilds, the richest bankers in
the world who hold governments in the hollow
Of the hand, and the head Of what promises
to be one Of the greatest franchise monopolies
in the world, a monopoly which is just now
showing its contempt of public opinion by COW
ering public property with offensive signs.
Patrick H. McCarren, the notorious race
track gambler and corporation lobbyist, for
many years generally recognized as the legis-
lative agent Of the colossus Of trusts the Stand
ard Oil Company.
Arthur P. German, the agent Of the trusts In
the transformation of the Wilson tariff bill
into the act Of "per1dy and dishonor'" as
President Cleveland called it.
Cord Meyer best known for his connection
with the Sugar Trust ring, which has used all
its influence to prevent those trade concessions
to the Philippines recommended by the Presi-
dent and Secretary Taft for which Judge Par
ker pretends such heartfelt concern.
Thomas F. Ryan, one Of the chiefs of the
great traction combination which holds some
of the chief cities of this country in wise
like grip, obtains franchises by questionable
methods, and furnishes the plain people In
adequate accommodations in order to pay diYi-
dends on watered stocks.
David B. Hill, the notorious election thief,
who robbed the plain people of Duchess
County Of their lawfully chosen representative,
according to the Judgment of the Court of Ap-
peals the man to promote whose fortunes Alton
b. Parker, while on the bench, ran political
campaign as Surrogate-Chairman and made
notes which were paid by O'Brien and Clark in
return for an aQueduct contract on q bid $54, 900
above the lowest offer.
William T. Sheehan, another traction mag
nate.
Thomas Taggart, the wealthy gambler and
tavern keeper, the INSCRIPTIONS user of cam
paign funds who has this fall poured over
$780, 900 into Indiana, which he has begged
from Belmont and the other Democratic trust
magnates for the purpose Of buying that State
for Parker.
These are few of those whom Judge Par
ker calls 1.-The plain people" They are Judge
Parkers chosen intimates, the men who en-
gineered lis nomination and would dominate
his administration. They are 'the plain people
for whose interests he has always stood and
still stands
