Allison agreed to "let we'll enough
alone" That is the trusts and cor.
porations had more influence with
congressman and their constituents,
for Gov. Cummins, who believes in
tariff reform, was elected by large
majority, which shows that most Of
the people of Iowa favored revision.
The Republican leaders are now try
ing to agree on tariff and trust planlls
to be incorporated in the platform to
be adopted at Chicago, and the same
Juggling with words, that will allow
both factions to stand on the platform
is certain to be presented to the Vot-
ers. Senators Aldrich and Lodge are
said to be preparing the planks,
under the close supervision Of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, and the voter that
will not be able to find what he wants.
will be hard to please.
Yet the fact remains that the pro-
tectionists and trust interests will
write the platform and also control
the action of the Republican national
convention and as every revision of
the tariff by the Republicans has re
suited in increasing duties, it is GER
tain that, if the Republican party
wins the election it will not be
considered necessary to revise the
tariff and more certain that if any re-
vision is attempted the protection the
trusts now enjoy will be maintained
Dun's index figures for May show that
high prices for all the necessaries of
life are still maintained and yet
wages are declining, with vast num-
Der of workers unemployed and many
imported industries running on short
time and yet the high tariff, which the
Republicans declare produces prosper
ity, is in full working order The
price of many farm products is fall
ing and yet the cost Of living shows
but little, if any decrease. The beef
trust, the coal trust, the salt trust, the
oil trust, the sugar trust, and the
minor combinations are paying large
dividends, fostered in most cases by
the protection the tariff gives them.
It would seem, therefore, Senator
Aldrich to the contrary notwithstand-
ing, the Republican national platform
should declare when the tariff will be
revised and if the revision shall pro-
vide for higher or lower dutiess
especially on trust products.

TEXAS FOR JUDGE PARKER.

Harmonious State Democratic Conven-
ton Held In San Antonio.
The Texas state democratic conven-
tion finished it's business at San An
tonic Wednesday, One of the strong
est delegation ever elected in the state
vas chosen and instructed to vote for
Judge Parker and 70 vote as a unit
on all questions.
A feeling Of party unanimity and
earnestness ruled throughout. The
platform adopted was short, embrace
ing merely an enunciation Of demo-
cratic fundamental principles.

REPUBLICAN, TARIFF PLANK.
II Is Giving the Managers Of the
G. o. Party Much Anxiety,

Senator Aldrich says the Republi-
cans will revise the tariff when it is
necessary to do so, but as the senator
manages the Republican tariff pro
gram and in turn is controlled by the
trusts, the time for revision is GER
tain to be in the distant future. Those
Of us with small incomes, at the
mercy of high trust prices, have seen
the necessity for tariff reform ever
since the combines boosted prices be-
You'd the ability of the poor man to
pay. The Rockefeller group OF in
dustrial trusts, with whom Senator
AI:lrich is connected, will hardly con.
slider it necessary to revise the tariff,
unless to raise it to a higher plane
The last Republican platform for Iowa
declared that: Duties that are too
low should be increased, and duties
that ere too high should be decreas-
ed" That was the plank adopted to
compromise the differences between
Gov. Cummins and "the stand pat
ters," so that each could point to it
with pride The followers, of Gov.
Cummins, who believe that the tariff
shelter trusts, could quote that part
of tho plank which promised that, if
duties were too high and were foster
Ing the trusts and allowing them to
rob the Iowa farmers, the duties
would be reduced The stand patters
on the other hand, who proclaim that
high duties bring prosperity, doubt
less feel that still higher duties would
bring out even greater prosperity. But
this Juggling with words that gave
both factions a chance to approve the
platform, Gid not lead to any revision
of the tariff BY Congress, and in fact

Prices sesm to Be Rising.

When the irrigation bill was pend
ing in congress it was promised that
the desert could be made to blossom
as the rose for about SIS an acre. Later
the country was informed that this
was the cost to private water COM
panies, which had taken all the easy
jobs, and that government irrigation
would cost $40 an acre. The state
ment just made by the interior depart
ment is that $27O00,00O will suffice to
irrigate 1000 900 acres.

HARD TIMES COMING.
LONG PERIOD OF BUSINESS DE-
PRESTON CERTAIN.
Advocates Of a Protective Tariff,
Which Has Enriched the Few at the
Expense of the Many, Will Try in
Vain to DeIude the People.

People with small incomes, farm
ers, clerks and working men, should
husband their resources and savings,
for a period of business depression
would seem to be impending. The
Associated Press sent out a warning
on May 10, which was published in
the evening newspapers of that date
and the morning newspapers of the
next day at the head of the financial
news. The report after stating the
unprecedented collapse of the stock
market says:
''The conviction is growing, how
ever, that the cause of the stagnation
in the stock market is deeper lying
than any temporary factor, and has to
do with the gradual emerging of the
conditions Of general contraction in
business and industry in all direc-
TONS
Hard times always follow boom
and business depression means that
the man must seek the job and not
the job the man. The reduction in
wages that commenced last fall will
surely be more accentuated as the
demand for labor becomes less and
the railroads and other great corpora
tons reduce their working forces. IN
deed, this reduction has already COM
menced, for the New York Central
railroad Ivas ordered all it's depart
ments to cut down expenses and the
men employed to be reduced to the
least number necessary to carry on
the business of the road. Other rail
roads will likewise retrench and this
will cause stagnation in the labor mar
ket, for when ''the man is seeking the
< job" he is compelled to accept what
Nthe employer offers, when he knows
that thousands are after it.
This breakdown of prosperity
which the protectionists boast is pro-
duced by the protective tariff, is the
outcome that has been foretold by
the Democrats. The goose is slowly
dying that laid the golden eggs and
the few have the gold and the many
will now have to suffer. But the de-
ception that the Republican leaders
have practiced on their followers is
still being continued, for on the same
day that the Associated Press sent out
it's pessimistic report on the business
outlook, the Republican state conven-
ton Of New Jersey in the platform
adopted, declared: "That the protec-
tive tariff has brought the greatest
prosperity to capital and labor" Re-
publican platforms are VIGOROUSLY IN
reliable, and the idle men in the pro-
tected industries, in the silk mills, the
wooden mills, and other factories run
ming on short time in New Jersey. the
10000 idle men in the textile field
in Philadelphia alone, are facts that
disprove the reliability of the New
Jersey platform, besides the general
contraction in business" that the AS
ISOLATED Press announces.
Prosperity has vanished from so
many industries, and so many homes
are restricting their expenses, that
there must be something wrong with
the system that the Republicans are
boasting of.
The New Jersey platform, however,
told the truth about the prosperity the
tariff has brought to capital, if it had
been frank enough to acknowledge

The Reporter Crawfished.

The following from the Stanley
Sun, which is published at Will
sons town, shows what his
friends think OF his Purified
Politics:
The Ward County Reporter
has crawfished. After indirectly
asserting that Judge Palda was
using judicial stationery fur
nished by the state for campaign
purposes and faced with a de-
mand to retract or stand suit, it
proceeds to explain by twisting
things around until black looks
white and then admits that Pal
da paid for it. This from a pa
per that wants politics purified.
Reform begins at home. Let
the Reporter try it.

CATTLE sCAB
PREVALENT.

DR.. Eagle, the United States
veterinarian, who is in Ward
county overseeing the dipping Of
cattle, reports the prevalence Of
scab disease in the Ward countM
herds as being very common, and
advises every ranchman to have
his cattle dipped at once, before
the cold weather is upon us. The
doctor has at his room at the
Leland samples OF the disease.
which he will be pleased to show
to anyone interested. DR.. Eagle
installed a very large dipping
tank at Tangedahl's lake last
week, which he says is as fine as
any in the whole United States.
1t is modern in every way. In
stead OF using the hot water cir
culation, the doctor substituted
a steam threshing engine which
works much better. The cattle
are driven to the dipping tank
and made to swim thru a solu-
tion OF lime and sulphur. There
are four gates in the tank and
the cattle arerequired to stop at
each gate 80 seconds. Their
heads must be submerged at
least twice. They are then driven
to a dripping pen. Thirty men
are in charge Of the Tangedahl
tank and 1900 cattle can be
dipped day.
The solution used in dipping is.
as follows: s pounds OF lime
and "a pounds OF sulphur to 100
gallons OF water. This makes
solution which looks like Port
Wine.

"HANDS OFF"
SAYS CRONNA

A. J. Gronna, Republican nomi-
nee for Representative, to Cong
ress, is in Minot. Mr.. Gronna is
not here to pour oil on the
troubled water, exactly, but
started in an interview with an
Independent reporter, that he
considered that the state politi-
clans, had better leave their
hands off Ward county, and al.
low the two factions to fight it
out. Mr.. Gronna talked more
sound sense in ten minutes with
our interview with him, than we
have heard from the others III
ten weeks. Gronna is from La.
kota. He has been a resident OF
North Dakota for % years He
knows the ways Of the North
Dakotan. He has taken part in
factional fights. He is broad
minded. Because a man does.
not happen to look through his
glasses as Gronna does, he does
not eternally condemn thatman.
Would that Senator Hansbrough
could see the political fight in the
same light as does Mr.. Gronna.
Regarding Minot, Mr.. Gronna
said: II was here 8 years ago.
I came through here to go down
on the 500 on business and am
surprised at. the great changes.

CANADIANS CAUGHT
WITH GRAIN.

A. Robinson, the elevator man,
reports that during the past
week three grain haulers from
the Canadian side have been
caught hauling grain across the
line and attempting to sell it to
our grain buyers. They receive
26 cents a bushel more for it on
this side the line than they do in
Canada. One man north of

grain. The grain was cOntis-
