The lighting lasted the entire day

The tariff protected trusts and
manufacturing monopolies of this
country export farm machinery,
steel rails and other products to
foreign countries, and after all
freights are paid sell them from -
to 80 per cent cheaper than they
are sold at home. What an enor-
nous profit or tribute they must
cxtort from our own farmers, rail-
road builders and consumers gen.
orally! 1t is legalized robbery,
pure and simple, and the Dingley
Republican tariff law enables them
to do tins and protects them in it.

The tariff should be revised, and
it should be revised IN the interest
of the people, which means the
government, and not in the inter.
est Of the trusts, mOnopolles and n
specially favored class. This will
never be done by the Republican
party, whose organization is dom
mated and controlled by these pred.
atory combines of capital, and
whose campaign funds are furnised
by them. 1t will never he done

the members Of the New York stock
exchange and finds over two-thirds OF
them are for Roosevslt. which Is about
the average way the stock brokers
we're divided in former years. The
Rockefellers are for Roosevelt, but
they have always been Republicans.
The Belmonts are for Parker, but
they have always been Democrats. So
the attempt of the administration TO
show that Wall street is against Roose-
welt is all rubbish. The boomers"
have watered stocks to sell. as the
boomers elsewhere are trying to
sell mines and lands at fictitious
values. They all believe in shouting
prosperity whether it is here or not,
and naturally follow the Republican
party and its fake prosperity.
There is a respectable element in
Wall street, some of whom are Demo
Gratis and some Republicans, who are
against Roosevelt. They are the real
investors who are connected with
trust companies and the great life ano
fire insurance institutions. They dis
Ike Roosevelt as being too erratlc
and headstrong, and fear that in some
emergency he will do something to
jeopardize the business interests of
the country. The real business men of
Wall street want stability and peace.
They have millions of other peoples
money invested in stocks, bonds and
mortgages, which they hold as securi-
ty for life and fire insurance all over
the country. They dislike the boom
ing methods and watered stocks as
much as righteous people do every
where. Wall street, as the banking
region in New York is called. has
therefore it's good and bad sides, and
1t is unfortunate for President Roose-
welt that the tough element there are
his supporters.

opinion that sensility was produced
By certain physiological states which
cause the benefcent species of mi

crease too rapidly. Then in their turn
they become injurious,
These parasites flourish in the
large intestine, which mammals pos

eighteen, while the doctors parrot,
aged seventy, appeared to the audi

1T stands proved says the doctor,
that senility is an infectious disease.
and it should be possible to treat it
like other maladies--to cure it or pre-.
vent it,"
The hope was expressed by Dr.

IN A PHILIPPINE JUNGLE.
OF Such STUFF is Made the Amazing
American Soldier

American Soldier.
The column was toiling along in
the sun up a hillside. The grass was
over the head of a man on horseback
and it was very hot down near the
ground, where no breeze could come,
The men were plodding along with
out light in their faces, doggedly fol
lowing the others in front. Here and
there a sick man was hanging back
under his load
1t was the sort of trail where
you are quite worn out, and you
make bets with yourself as to
whether you will keep on going to
the top of the hill, knowing very well
that you cannot help it.
Suddenly the boom of a mountain
gun ahead came down through the
sitting air. The crash CT rife vol
ley followed, and then more guns,
swiftly, steadily.
A shiver of life ran down the col
umn.
Hit EN- said an old sergeant.
Heads lifted. The column closed.
The walk changed to a half trot.
There was only one thought-tO go
forward to get at EN-.
Don't you think you'd better stay
while longer?" a hospital attendant
asked a private who had just fallen
out under the sun and was resting in
the shade of bush.
He'll! don't you hear them guns?"
was the unanswerable answer, Gin

WHAT THE TARIFF COSTS.
Average of 500 for Each Family In
the United States.


If the protectionists cannot show
that all are protected by the tariff, 1t
must be admitted that protection is
not applied equally and unequal taxa
ton is an abomination. From the
very nature OF things protection can.
not be universal. or there would be
nc benefit for anyone. If every one
was taxed for the benefit Of every
one else no one would be the gamer.
The policy and practice Of the protec,
tive tariff is TO make the many pay
for the benefit of the few.
How few receive any advantage
from the protective tariff of the
$4,000 900 which the census OF 1900
shows are engaged in Rainful occu-
pations-that is the workers and
laborers of the United States. Ii is
admitted that but very few farmers
received any benefit from the tariff
and yet there were 100000 persons
engaged in agriculture. Men and WON.

256, 900. Can il be shcwn that the
III, 638 clergymen, the ia, 400 lawyers,
the 1896 doctors and the 446.133
teachers have had their incomes in.
