The new enterprise. (Madison, Fla.) 1901-1908, 1904-06-16
WISE WORDS,

NJ r, i laEDEBlCks.
An overlooked virtue in orng men
is that Of keeping a promise,
A girl hasn't much use for a young
man who attempts to kiss her and
then quits,
There is neither profit nor pleasure
in the companiOnship of men who think
and talk lightly Of women,
Avoid companlonship with men who
prate of their conquests, and who de.
light to talk continually about them
selves.
Doubly endorsed notes and certified
checks have taken the place Of church
connections in establishing credits and
commercial relations.
Virtue is essentially a condition Of
youth. Old people do not lay claim to
virtue; they insist that they have other
exactons that must be lived up to.
The boy with curly hair seldom be,
comes anything more than the man
with curly hair. He was, and is, only
a plaything for the feminine sex.
If you must go into debt avoid
your relatives and close friends. You
will prevent arousing the Latred of the
former and retain the fri ndshlp Of
the latter.
All the wisdom Of the sagos and the
bitter experiences Of centuries do not
combine to convince some young men
that there are really some things in
this world beside gratifying personal
pleasures,
DO not crop in the dark, Wait I'M
til you see some light. do not care
how faint the light may be, but let
there be at east some light before maxi
ing move. 1t is just as hard to re-
treat in the dark as it is to advance.

a half dozen yards on each side of the

position for several days until the
proper bolts or connections could be
made. This. Of course, made it neces-
sary to have a jib upon the top Of the
travellers, thus facilitating the hand
ling of the frames beyond those being
held in place. 1t was the breaking Of
one Of these travellers that caused the
death Of eight workers, the crane,
bridge iron and men being precipitated
into the water beneath.
Day by day tins work continued, the
travellers being advanced with the pro-
gress of the bridge until the last span
was raised in place and found to fit
exactly. 1t was a wonderful sight TO
witness these two long outstretched
arms having practically nothing to
hold them up.
The centre span is S12 feet long and
contains 1000 tons Of steel, the total
cost when completed being Sl,000,OO0.
There is about $4,000 tons of steel in
the entire bridge. Although the Firth
of Forth of Scotland contains two
channel spans 200 feet long, and two
anchors 6S5 feet each, and is the larg-
est bridge in the world. that of the Wa
bash is regarded as one Of the finest
specimens Of its kind in the world.

that of the Wabash Railroad, which

BRYAN ANSWERS ROOSEVELT.
Presidents Charge Against Wilson
Tariff Act Proved UnfOunded and
Absurd.

William J. Bryan, in the Commoner,
quotes from Mr.. Roosevelt's letter of
acceptance rs follows:
1t is but ten years since the last at
tempt was made by means Of lowering
the tariff to prevent some people from
prospecting too much. The attempt
was entirely successful. The tariff Of
that year QS94) was among the causes
which in that year and for some time
afterwards effectually prevented any
body from prospecting too much and
labor from prospecting al ALL
This statement is in line with the
declaration in the Republican National
pla form for 1904 that "a Democratic
tariff has always been followed by
business adversely; a Republican tariff
by business prosperity"
Mr.. Bryan then proceeds to show
that neither the statement of Mr..
Roosevelt, nor the declaration in the
Republican platform is justified by
history. .'AS Il matter of fact says
Mr.. Bryan, every panic during the
last thirty years originated under Re
publican rule and developed under Re
publican legislation.
lie SOlu pauIcS WHICH gave nlStOr!
black Friday occurred during the
month of September, 1869, when the
Republican party was in power.
THE great panic marked by the fail
ure of Jay Cook & Co. occurred in Sep
TENDER, 1873. Then the Republican
party was in power and eleven months
prior to the time of that panic the
Republican party had been reelected to
power.
1T is true the Wilson bill was passed
ten years ago. That was in 1894. But
that panic did not originate in 1894;
it did not originate in 1898; it began
long prior to the Presidential election
of 1892. That panic originated and
reached it's worst under that famous
tariff law known as the Mckinley
bill" --.-----.-----.

PROTECTION ARGUMENTS MET.
Trusts, Combined, Defeat the NerJ'
Object of the Protection Theory.

The sole economic argument for ::
protective tariff said Colonel \. II.
Bacon, OF Brooklyn, i'll his recent
speech TO the Travellers Club, lis the
ultimate benefit to the consumer by
means of lower prices through dOmes-
tic competition. The gigantic trusts
have combined domestic plants so rs to
defeat the very object of the tariff
under which they thrive. Prices are
Increased until 4 shipbuilder on the
Clyde can. buy American steel plate
so ton cheaper than Il shipbuilder
OH the Kennebec, who now asks the
general Government for i subsidy
equal to SO Il ton to make up the dif
ference.
But, says Il Republican President.
Il reduction of the tariff would de-
StrOy the small manufacturers who
are still infants and who bask i'll the
shadow OF the giant trusts This ar
gument is too simple for children even
The tariff is to protect against the
foreign competitor, but the foreign
competitor must first destroy the lar"
est domestic manufactures before he
can get at the infants. The battle
must be Waged between the giants.
for the foreign giant could not occupy
the home field without first defeating
the domestic giant; and, under this re-
cent argument, any man by investing
Il thousand dollars in steel plant.
fifty Years from now could defeat the
reduction of the tariff, even though the
American Steel Trust was furnishing
its product at every capital OF the
world. No. the moment one domestic
firm becomes q giant, its very life de
ponds upon its fighting every foreign
foe. and it thus protects every infant
that cOddleS under its shelter.
But, again say the orators: Amer
lean labOrerS must not be reduced to
the level of the pauper labor Of
Europe We are reminded of the
traveller and his dog lost in the des-
ert. Starvation stared them in the
face. The traveller cut Off the dogs /
tail, roasted it, ate the meat and |
threw back the bone to the dog. This |

DOUBTFUL TEDDY

when We take up the great QUos-
ton of the tariff. we are at once con
fronted by the doubt as to whether
our opponents do not mean what they
say
Against that profound observation
of President Roosevelt may be placed
the declaration III the Democratic plat
form and that OfsJOhn Sharp Williams,
the leader Of the Democrats i'll the
House. on the subject about which Mr.
Roosevelt arrO%ates supreme authority
Williams thus defined the Democrat tic
idea on the tariff, which Judge Parker
approved:
The Democratic tariff idea, like ey-
erything else Democratic. is founded
rs nearly as possible upon the prnci-
pie of equality of opportunities and
equality Of burdens This same prin-
ciple extended to other matters of an
ticipated legislation will give you what
Democracy means. or ought to mean.
with regard to them. 1t stands for
equality of charges by railroads and
transportation companies, with destruc-
ton of the power of secret rebate or
open discrimination, whether against
corporations or localities. Neither
Government nor Government created
corporations ought to be permitted to
encourage or continue in course of
favoritism to any individual, any in
terest or any locality" .-----.---.-----.

SHALL SEE THE DEVIL.
If Peacemakers Shall See God, What
is to Become Of Warmakers?

In 4 speech made in Boston Octo-
Der 4th, Introducing Secretary Hay to
the International Peace Congress.
Mayor Collins, of the Hub, said that
if he were to paraphrase a Bible text
to suit the occasion it would be this:
Blessed are the peacemakers. for they
shall see God; damned be the war
makers. for they shall see the devil.''
This utterance from Mayor Collins
in the presence Of the Secretary OF
State, while not directed 1T President
Roosevelt, is at least IN eXcOriatiOn of
the President when considered in con-
nection with speech he made before
the Republican Club of New York.
February 18th, 1899. when he said:
IF we ever grow to regard peace
as a permanent condition, and feel
that we can afford to let the keen.
fearless. virile qualities of heart and
mind and body sink into disUSe, we
will prepare the way for inevitable
and shameful disaster in the future.

Thomas w. Lawson, who has always
been regarded as shining light OF

utor to the Doodle funds of his party

Everybody's Magazine.
Much of this inStallment is devoted
to Il scathing arraignment of ROOSe-
velt's friend and trusted adviser. J.

incidents leading to Addicks' entrance
into the Boston gas field are fully mar
rated. The gas mans alleged tinan-
cial crOOkedneSS and his known polit-
ical raScality are shown up in light
that must bring JOY and peace TO the
soul of Theodore ROosevelt-in horn
An entire chapter is given to a mar
ration of the story of AddickS' cap
ture' Of the Bay State Gas Company
and the alleged corrupt methods by
which he profited to the extent of 81
100000.
This man Addicks is one Of the most
notorious political corruptiOnists in
the country.
Roosevelt. while Civil Service Com
missioner. Assistant Secretary Of the
Navy and Governor Of New York
went out OF his way to condemn him
and expressed contempt for any one
who would have political relations
with him.
During the first two years of his in
cumbency of the Presidential office
Roosevelt continued his opposition to
Addicks and Addicksism. and used his
influence to bring about his overthrow
He joined hands with the honest and
decent Republicans of Delaware and
helped them to down Addicks and
save the honor of their State and
party.
But how is it now? Does Roosevelt
still support the reputable wing of his
party in Delaware? Not at all. He is
hand in glove with the corrupt Adj
dicks, has turned over to him and his
henchmen the Delaware patronage and
is apparently proud Of Addicks as Il
political lieutenant and confidential adj
wiser. In the opinion of the best men
in the Republican ranks in Delaware.
