Legislative Landmarks.

Some of the landmarks of historic
legislation created during President
Roosevelts administration are: az The
law for the civil government of the
philippines: (2l corporate legislation,
chief of which is that creating the
department of commerce and labor,
with broad powers, which, in the ma
ture of things. must steadily grow;
90 Cuban reciprocity comforting ma
terial benefits on both Cuba and the
United States; (4) the treaty and laws
that make the Panama canal GER
tainty; (5) the law for the irrigation
of the arid lands of the great west
Against these accomplished results
during one administration of the party
that does things the Democratic party
has nothing to offer but empty words
and high-sounding promises.

AssAILING THE TARIFF
Democrats Seem Determined to Force .
Distur hing Issue.

Signs increase that the Democratic
leaders are determined to force the
tariff issue to the front in the presi-
Will welcome the discussion of this
question, well knowing that it is sure
to add many thousands of votes TO
their majorities, they cannot but re-
gret the selection of the tariff as the
main issue, because of the unfortunate
influence it will have upon the busi-
ness interests of the country.
So far this year the presidential
campaign has not blocked business and
financial activity. Affairs proceed as
usual. In all lines of business there
is a hopefulness and confidence which
is most encouraging. But if the coun-
try is to be confronted with another
visitation of tariff revision agitation.
with even remote chance of sue
cess in the election, there is bound to
be a great slump in the industrial
world and a corresponding depression
in all business interests.
1t is well remembered what hap
pened ten years ago, when, as Presi-
dent Roosevelt puts it, 1.-The last at
tempt was made by means Of lower
ing the tariff to prevent such people
from paospering too much" The at
tempt was entirely successful. The
tariff law of that year was among the
causes which in that year and for
some time afterward effectually
prevented anybody from prospering at
all. Undoubtedly it would be possible
at the present time to prevent any
OF the trusts from remaining prosper
GUS by the simple eXpedient of MAX
ing such a sweeping change in the
tariff as to paralyze the industries of
the country'
The people of the United States
will not soon court again the destruc-
ton and panic of 1893. Once is enough
for one generation. There will be a
tremendous vote against tariff legisla-
ton by the Democrats.
The confidence of the country may
stand even throughout a tariff revision
campaign, but it is risking good
deal to raise that issue in the manner
contemplated. They. however, have
everything to gain and nothing to
lose. They must have something
to stand upon, and complete failure
inevery other attack made upon
the Republican position has driven
them upon the tariff as standing out
post of Republicanism which can al
ways be assailed. when nothing else af-
fords a convenient target.

he will revoke the order, but let the

government so wisely, diligently and
effectively that they deserve a vaca-

Praise from Democratic Newspaper.

The New York Times, one of the
Democratic newspapers which has
been denouncing President Roosevelt's
Philippine policy, recently printed an
editorial leader on the settlement of
the Friars land question. The article,
concludes: 1T is creditable both to th"
intelligence and the humanity of tile
government" If the Times was less
partisan it could truthfully say that
every act Of the Roosevelt adminis-
tration in dealing with the Philippine
question was creditable to the United
States.

Judge Parker's attempt to pose as a
bulwark against Democratic attacks
on the personal honor and integrity
of President Roosevelt is one of the
humorous incidents of the campaign.
No Democrat has yet had the temer-

BACKED BY THE TRUSTS
The Democratic CASH Box Is Receiving
Liberal Contributions.


The trusts long ago recognized
President Roosevelt as dangerous foe
to illegal .monopolies. II the money
power of the United States could have
defeated Roosevelt's nomination at
the Chicago convention it would have
hastened to do SO. 1t saw, in time,
that the people had set their hearts
upon Roosevelt's candidacy, and,
leaving the Republicans out of the
Scase, they turned to the Democrats.
In Judge Parker they found, appar-
entity, a man of that cast of mind
which tolerates questionable behavior,
procrastinates decisive action, and
leans to precedent so strongly as to
balk advance-the very man for the
giant trust to play with.
When Judge Parker's speech of ac-
ceptance was read. his remarks upon
the trusts were anNiously scaned by
the people. Disappointment came to
those who We're not already awake to

Is Protection aRobbery..

The Democratic assertion that pro
lection is robbery; that the tariff is
a tax on the American consumer, is
best refuted by examining the effect of
protection on the tin-plate industry.
When the Mckinley bill was passed
-tenths of all the tin used in this
country was manufactured abroad. To
day the manufacture of tin is one
of the most important of our home in
dustries, contributing millions of dol
lars annually to our hational wealth.
But this is the least part of the story,
in SO far as the tariff is concerned :
the price of tin began to go down in
proportion as the United States began
to produce it, and the American con
sumner has never paid under the Nc
Kinley tin tariff anywhere near as
much per pound for tin plate as he
paid when tin was on the free list

Chicago, Oct. 14-Supplies continues

slow at steady prices, but good cattle
sold readily at full value. Prices fol

cept the best and the spread In prices

The supplies are showing big gains
and there was a usual decline today
prices ruling 500 cents lower. Inc
bulk sales were at $3.50 $50.
The new crop of hogs is coming ear
lier than expected. Receipts are ex-
pected to be checked by the late bad
break, but, 1t is thought, on the other
hand, that declining values are more
apt to force hogs to market than adj
vancing prices. Corn may be good
crop on paper but there are some big
cribs that have not been really full
for several years, and II hog prices
seem to be slated for low figures far
mers will be inclined to let the new
crop of hogs move as fast as possible
with as little corn feeding as will do.
This is likely to make very wide
spread in values between light
mixed and prime fat medium and heavy
weights.
Yesterday there seemed to be acres
of hogs that would weigh up around
200 pounds only because each load
contained sprinkling of big extra
heavy sows, the rest being under
weight and underfed spring pigs.

There was good demand, prices firm;

A 100000 HOTEL.
Plans Are Drawn and Chicago Man
Hopes to Secure Capital.

Chicago, Oct. ii.-While stating that
it was Otto Young's plan ultimately to
have his property on Michigan avenue
between Eldridge and Hubbard courts,
improved with a twenty-five story no.
tel. which should be the finest and
largest in the world, and cost $0,000,-
900 to $12,O0O,00O, Lawrence Heyworth,
Mr.. Young's son-in-law, denied yes
terday that any definite arrangements
had been concluded.
''When Mr.. Young acquired this
property it was with this ultimate
end in VIEW said Mr.. Heyworth, but,
while he has been approached by sew
eral large hotel men in the matter,
nothing has yet been decided upon.
The statement attributed to me that
our plans had assumed definite shape
because Of our having interested i'm
portant eastern people in the enterprise,
is incorrect"
Asked whether George Boldt of the
Waldorf-Astoria of New York was in
terested in the project, Mr.. Heyworth,
said:
mo, he has not approached us as
yet, but I understand from others that
he feels an interest in the matter"
Mr.. Heyworth's statements confirms
what was published shortly after Mr..
Young acquired the property-that it
was to be used as the site for great
hotel. According to Mr.. Heyworth
no definite progress has been made.
Mr.. Young's plan is to lease the
ground for long term to a corpora
ton which is to erect the hotel. Moth
ing can be done for two years owing to
existing leases that cover part of the
property.
Mr.. Young is not now in Chicago.
His son-in-law, Lawrence Heyworth,
who is possessed Of all the facts, spoke
of the project last night.

structure and the ground could be OBJ
tanned from lease holders without
much difficulty. I preume if the CAPT.

ing would require a vast amount OF
