HANDSOME EXHIBIT.
Wyatt Harness co. Makes Excellent
Impression at State Fair.

For the first time the Grand Stand
at the State Fair was turned into an
exhibition hall this year, one-half OF
the lower floor being devoted to the
display of buggies, carriages and har-
ness of the Wyatt Harness Co, of
which Mr.. c. b. Ray is manager.
The exhibit does great credit to the
company. The vehicles are of the
handsomest patterns and most stylish
in appearance. The harness and sad

ROOSEVELT is RIGHT.
Presidents Philippine Policy Upheld
by w. II. Hearst.
IChicago American, Dem.

Theodore Roosevelt tells the men of
the Grand Army of the Republic, assem-
bled in Boston. hat the United States is
going to Hold on to the Philippine Isl
ands. and that the work lone there will
not be blamed"
MIR. Roosevelt is right. The people of
the United States, when they took the
Philippines, assumed the responsibility,
not only for the present but for the
future, for a good many millions of hui
man beings and a large slice of the
earth's surface.
Laws which are good here must be
good in the Philippines, and they will be
applied there. That which is progress
here must be progress in the Philippines,
and it will be developed there.
The United States will not back out
and Invite the Philippines to fight it out
among themselves, leaving the savages
to fall to slashing each other and the
half-breeds to plotting and selling each
other out. 1t would be the simplest way
out of it, and the most cove rdly. That
will not be the American way. & - {"
The American people do not want any
imperialism, but they do want expansion,
and they nave always had it. They are
not going to back out of an undertaking,
either on foolishly sentimental or con-
veniently cownrdly grounds. They will
do the work they nave undertaken in the
Philippines, educating the people there
and, incidentally, educating themselves
in the process.

Striking Contrasts Revealed by a Study
of Official Reports,

Striking Contrasts Revealed by a Study
of Official Reports.
Official reports show that protective
tariffs have been in operation in the
United States during practically one-half
of the one hundred and fifteen years
since the adoption of the Constitution.
Official statistics show that during fifty
nine years of low tariff there We're but
ten years i'll which the exports of the
country were as great as the imports.
and that during the entire fifty-nine
years of low tariffs the total excess Of
imports over exports was S515,O0O.OOO
y study of the commerce of the protec-
tive years shows that exports exceeded
imports i'll tw%enty-seven Of the fifty-two
protective years, and that the net excess
of exports over imports during that time
was $500. 000, 600.
10 state it in different form. low tariffs
in tifiy-nine years of operation show a
net excess of imports over exports of
$515,000, 600, while protective tariffs. in
tfty-two years Of operation, show a net
excess of exports over imports of So
500,O0O,000. The protective tariffs OF
ffty-two years have paid the commercial
debts of the tifty-nine years of low tar
ifs, amounting to $515,0O $1,000, and, in
addition, placed $780, 00,Oo0 to the
credit of our export trade.
Another striking example of the
growth of our export trade under pro-
tective tariff is found in the fact that
the excess of exports over imports in
the first three years of President Me-
kinley's term was nearly four times as
much as the entire excess of exports over
imports from 1890 to the beginning of
the Mckinley administration From
1890 to March /, 1897, the excess of
exports over imports was $3.50, OPS, 497:
from March !, 1897, to March /, 1900,
the excess OF exports over imports was
81, 4S3 ,O49.
A comparison Of these figures shows
the relative effects of Republican pro-
lection and Democratic free trade or low
tariffs on the revenues of the government
and the prosperity of the country.

One of the chief reasons given by Re

His Coat of Arms.

The Democratic presidential candidate
has a coat of arms. That fact has al
ready been somewhat exploited and may,
for the moment, pass. The main fact,
which seems to be that, considering his
relations with Tammany, his relations
with Bryan and the old silver party, his
extremely distant relations with Cleve-
land and his group, and a lot of other
things, ex-Judge Parker seems, instead
of being in possession of ol%d-fashioned
heraldic coat of arms, to be the owner
of a coat of many colors. Really, the
Judge, who seems to be possessed of
quite a sense of courtesy, ought to apollo
gize to Joseph Of Bible history.

the presidency. and thereby aided the at
