AN ESTEEMED eastern contempt
y rary - printing series of la
bored arguments in which it attempts
to show that the tariff has no. effect
whatever on prices. This is in line
with President Roosevelts statement
that the tariff has nothing to do with
the trusts. It is difficult to under
stand how, I'm these times when the
tariff has been so exhaustively dis
cussed. so clearly shown TO be a tax,
any important newspaper can have the
hardihood to deny the facts.
The newspaper to which we refer, Ia
the same issue in which its disingen-
uous tariff editorial is published, prints
a special dispatch from New York. as
follows:
.'The very backbone OF the American
corset industry depends upon the success
Of the Republican party IN November.
% It's 4 case Of Roosevelt or bust a
facetious corset manufacturer remarked
at Republican headquarters here today.
Corset makers declare they cannot
maintain the immense advantage gained
over French aud Belgian manufacturers
il the tariff on this product of American
genius Is tempered with
What does the corset manufacturer
mean when he talks Of the immense
advantage" the tariff gives him over
his foreign competitors? Does he not
mean that because of the tariff he IS
able TO sell corsets at a higher price
than he would otherwise be able to
sell them2 or course Therefore. the
tariff is a tax. Therefore. It does have
an effect on prices. If it didn't there
would be no object in having a tariff
because there would be no protection

This same newspaper not long ago
preened Itself considerably because it
had used its influence to secure the
ebrogation Of an order requiring the
Payment of duty on picked sheep
skins. 1t quoted manufacturers as
saying that unless this duty were re +.
moved they would be driven out Of
business. So the duty on picked
sheepsKins has. by order OF the press-
dent, been temporarily suspended.
Why? So the manufacturers can buy
sheepskins more cheaply. Will they
sell their product more cheaply?
Hardly, because their manufactures
are protected by the very tariff OF
which they complained when it cut
them.

DIGHT THINKING Republicans as
IN weh as Democrats will endorse
Judge Parker's attitude with reference
TO personalities in the Democratic
campaign book. Judge Parker has de-
ciared emphatically that nothing re-
fiecting OH the private character Of
President Roosevelt should be put out
officially by the Democrats. This, not
withstandihg the fact that the Repuh
licans. in their campaign book have
not hesitated 10 say unpleasant things
about Judge Parker. the man.
The position taken by Judge Parker
is not surprising. His every action
since he was honOred by the Demo-
cratic nomination for the presidency
has indicated that the party hOnored
itself as much as it hOnored him.
such part as he has taken in the cam
psisn has been above reproach, He
has been dignified, able, high minded.
clean. BY his every act he has shown
himself worthy to fin the high office
FOR which he has been named.
The Democratic nominee will not. De
injured in the least by any mud the
Republicans in their desperation see
fit TO throw at him. More of 1t will
stick 10 their own hands than to him.
He believes, and properly, that if he
cannot rise TO the presidency without
besmirehing the character Of. his OPP
ponent it would be far better for him
10 spend the remainder of his days a
private citizen. II mud throwing is
TO be done in this campaign, the Re
publicans will have to do it.

~ c. Frick in which AIR. Schwab said
that because OF the tariff we can
make steel rails at slS a ton. leaving
a nice margin for foreign business. =
Steel rails are sold in the United
States for SIS per ton. Foreigners can
buy them. laid down at almost any
port in the world. for IS per ton less
But OF course thestariff has nothing 20

Clothing can be bought in England
for $40 to- SIS per suit that would cost
in the United States anywhere from

ton of cloth and clothing impossible.
II is possible. of course. TO buy suits
of clothes here at $40 and SIS. but they
are mighty poor stuff
1t seems. to US that the less our Re
publican contemporaries say about the
effect Of the tariff on prices the better
off their party viii be.

FORTUNES FOR CLOTHES.

A NEW YORK WOMAN, who is in
II a position to know. because she
spends her entire time designing cos
tE4nes for other women, says that many
New York women spend S25, 900 year
for their clothes. One spends $4,000
annually. and several spend more than
$4,000. The designer defends this ex-
travagance on the ground that it fur
nishes employment to hundreds of per-
sons who need the money. Just the
same. it would be just as we'll to do
good in some other way.
Twenty-Five thousand dollars is
enough to keep ten families in compa-
rative luxury. 1t would keep twenty
five families in comfort. 1t is absurd
to say that it is necessary for any one
woman to spend that much money on
her clothes. NotSone American woman
in 10000 will spend $4,000 on her per
sonal apparel in a lifetime. 1t may be
said that if the wives and daughters OF
our rich men didn't spend the money or
their apparel they would find some
other exravagant channel for it.
This is probably true, but one ex-
travagance does not justify another
There are 50 many people who have
hardly enough clothes to keep then
comfortable, hardly enough food tC
keep them from starving. that the pub
Hca tfou IF sfrcb items aS Tho ona r.
which we refer almost surely breeds

strously unfair for one to have toe
much while another has nothing

US; there should be too much for none

BLIND PARTIsANsHIP.

Z AVS THE Manti Messenger of recent
y date
Maine goes 5000 Republican majority.
Inc republican managers claimed 1890.
comment is unnecessary. but Il indicates
that President Roosevelt is Just as pop-
MAR IN the east as in the west. The pres
D. ident Is recognized east and west as the
friend of the people.
The interesting feature Of the Mes
senger's comment is that it is not true.
The Republicans did not carry Maine
By $1,000 votes. Although they made
a net gain Of something like 5 per cent.
their majority was upwards of 5000
votes under the figures of four years
ago. The Democrats made net gain
of "a per cent. This indicates. if it in
dicates anything. that Mr.. Roosevelt is
not popular in Maine. OF course, the
Republican leaders claimed less than
they expected. But the purpose of
this shouldn't deceive even the Manti
editor.
There Is. indeed. little comfort for
any thoughtful Republican in the
Maine returns. The Messengers COM
ment is the comment of partisan that
deliberately blinds itself and attempts
20 Blind its readers TO the facts. That
sort OF newspaper work was eOnsid-
cred the proper thing fifteen or twenty
years ago. 1t is decidedly out of date
today. Modern, newspapers. whatever
their political leanings, do not hesitate
10 tell the truth. for only by telling the
truth can they hope to win and hold
the confidence of their readers.
