HIGHER TARIFF To 0OffSEI GREAPER
TRANSPORTATION.

The campaign book begins It's eiS-
cussion Of the tariff question by show
ing the necessity for Increasing tarif,
or artificial protection, as natural pro-
lection" or the cost Of transporting
goods from one country to another de-
creases. II says that:
THE nations OF the world have one
by one found il necessary TO establish
tariff protection to take the place of
that protection which distance and
high cost Of transportation formerly
afforded"
This demonstrates that in the minds
of the "stand-patters" the tariff is the
enemy of science and progress and that
it is a great mistake to cheaper the
cost Of transportation. And yet these
same Republicans boast OF the fact
that they have authorized an expen-
diture Of from $2O0,OQO. 900 to s400, ,000,-
600 to construct the Panama Canal.
Why? Is it simply to furnish them
with another excuse for jacking the
tariff up several pUlpts? Why spend
money to shorten water routes and
cheaper transportation costs, if we
must proceed promptly to Offset these
benefits by higher tariff duties?
These "stand-patters" belong to the
old school Of extreme protectionists who
wished that the oceans were walls of
fire and who were sorry that each
country was not separated from every
other country by impossible barriers.
They show their Inconsistency and
lack Of faith in their own theories by
printing pages of statistics in their
campaign hook to show the wonderful
growth of our foreign commerce under
and In spite of Dingleyism.

a fatal accident occurred in

A fatal accident occurred in a
cotton gin three miles southwest
of Center Ridge few lays ago.
VIM. Ethridge was the victim
He was brushing away notes
from the note board when the
gin saws caught his shirt, a new
one made of buckskin shirting,
which threw his arm against the
running saw. Ee placed both
feet and his right hand against
the gin stand and his arm was
torn off at the elbow. Four ribs
were torn out of the gin and six
saws were completely ruined.
All the muscles of his entire arm
were cut into shoe strings and
wrapped and twisted about the
saws or ground into fragments.
He died few hours later.

ROOSEVELT AND NAPOLEON.

Hon. Edward M. Shepard in speech
made August 81, at Bennington, VT;
aroused q great deal of enthusiasm.
After quoting from ex-Gov. Blacks
eulogy Of Theodore Roosevelt, he said:
WAS not Gov Black right? For
did he not speak of President who
he's declared his contempt for that
mock humanitarianism which would
prevent the great liberty-loving nations
of the world from going to war, who
despises. as he himself has told us,
the 'cloistered virtue which dare not
90 down into the hurly-burly where
the men of might contend2'
WAS he not speaking of a President
who, In hundred speeches, has talked
OF the craven and the 'weakling' and
the coward who babbles Of peace, who
has preached the Just man armed as
his dearest gospel, who would have
great army, although, as he said, we
do not need it in the least for police
purposes at home but because we need
to use it abroad; who, three years be-
fore our marauding venture at Pan.
ANA, declared that we must build the
Isthmian canal and must grasp the
points of vantage meaning that we
must violate the territory Of another
nation; who has talked in season and
out of season Of the cant about lib
ertT and the consent Of the governed
who, speaking as the Chief Magistrate
OF a republic Of law and order and
peace, which in Its men and resources
Is the most powerful Of nations, de-
clared that It's maxim should be,
Speak softly and carry big stick,
and who has of late in plain terms
threatened our neighbors at the South
that unlcss--in their relations not with
the United States but with others, for
whom we are in no way called upon
to act-they acted with decency in in
dustrial and political matters unless
they kept order and paid their obliga-
tion,' unless the governed themselves
we'll they might expect our forcible
Intervention?
Where Is the parallel for utterances
like these by the ruler Of great coun-
try since Moscow and Waterloo
brought to an end the insolent addresses
of the first Napoleon to the monarchs
of Europe and the terrified ENJOYS az

MILLIONS FOR PHILIPPINES.

Exclusive of soldiers, sailors, and
civil officials, there are probably less
than 800 Americans in the Philippines
and not all of these are to be con-
sidered as permanent residents. And
yet the Administration has decided
to spend millions Of dollars In making
Manila "A City Beautiful" and addi-
tional millions in creating a summer
capital in the mountains 100 miles
north of Manila, to which the over
worked offce-holders may retire dur
ing the fever-breeding season, which
one returning soldier facetiously says
takes in the whole year"
Manila Is to be made 'The Gem City
Of the Orient" while the summer loaf
ing place Is to be more magnificent
than Simla in India, in fact, than any
similar retreat in the world. A
Chicago architect has been given carte
blanche to prepare plans and specifi-
cations, and he is about to set sail for
a five-months sojourn in the islands.
The plan seems to be to give European
"imperialists" the grand razzle-dazzle,
without regard to cost. And the
American people will be called upon
to foot the bill.
How do they like the prospect?
