tariff Under the heel of imperialism
what has not come to pass, but we need
not at this time go into details; it suf-
fees that things have come to pass. AS
to the tariff, it is we'll known that under
it's operation certain industries have
fourished outrageously. Under it's ne
farious workings we are competing with
the world in trade and even the farmer
is becoming, in some cases, far too opu-
lent. Take, for instance, the one who
raises wool. He gets far more for his
wool than he would were the Australian
product allowed to enter free of duty
Why should the wool grower be thus
benefited? We feel, as we have felt for
long time, that all is wrong with the
tariff. We may be a trifle vague CON
corning our own attitude as to what we
might, could, would or should do with
the tariff were its adjustment in our
hands, but let that pass.
Troubles All 'Round.
The land is rocked by business and
industrial troubles. Men are standing
against men, arguing, striking and oc-
casionally working. Nothing has been
done to bring all this to a focus. Where
is the hand Of Power? What would
Thomas Jefferson do were he with us in
the flesh to-day?
No Second Term.
In conclusion, gentlemen, l wish to
remark that l seek no second term. /
feel that even a consideration of such
thing as a second term would be un-
timely. l feel that we all, in common,
are convinced that all thought and energy
should be concentrated upon obtaining
the first one. Gentlemen, l am salts
fed with the platform, with you and
with myself. Could there be a more mag
nifcent outlook for the party of Thomas
Jefferson, to whom, believe, I hare
already referred2 Could there be an

BOILED DOWN FACTS.

2. There are many good men in all
parties, but parties must be judged Ivy
results.
3. During Republican admintstra-
tons we have usually had good
times" while during Democratic ad-
ministrations we have usually had
'shard times.' The panic Of 1893,
which business men remember, occur
red during the administration Of Gro
yer Cleveland, and, some people think,
was due to changes in the tariff and
the currency.
4. While perhaps some hfn2s might
be bettered, do we want any radical
changes in the Government policy
just now and are we likely to get any
more honest, patriotic, fair, able and
safe man for President than Theodore
Roosevelt?

to finish and actively set things going
is something our historic party is sa-
credly pledged to combat to the end.
Imagine power so ruthless that it even
threatens to tear canal across the
isthmus of Panama and to build vast
dams and reservoirs and irrigate the arid
reaches Of the West! We are opposed
to power.
The Weather.
Without the exhibition of any undue
bitterness, speaking calmly of our OPP
ponents, as should become an ex-Road
Commissioner, l would call your atten-
ton, gentlemen, to the fact that under
a Republican administration the last
winter was the coolest in over forty
years. What has followed? Has the
Signal Service been reformed? So far
as any intelligence has been transmitted
to me, the bureau of the Agricultural
Department to which l have just made
casual reference remains in almost pre-
cisely the condition in which it was a
year ago. I wish to refer to this matter
with all broadness and dignity of percep-
ton, but, while I would not directly
charge NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. in the prem
Uses, / feel at least justified in calling
the attention of the American people to
an existent state
The Boil Weevi1.
Furthermore, gentlemen, and bearing
in mind the graceful remarks of your
chairman, l would call attention par
ticularly to the boil weevil which has so
ravaged the cotton crop under Repub--
lican administration. 1t is true that GER
tain ostensible attempts to check the
evil have been made, but why should the
boil weevil have appeared at ALI What
necessity was there for boil weev1l I'M
der any circumstances? 1t is the old
story of Republican oppression of the
South. And the chinch bug is undoubt-
eddy impending!
Encke's Comet.
But, gentlemen, and l am not un-
mindful Of the fact that l was practi-
cally renominated a second time on
platform supposed to be thoroughly ex-
purgated in spirit if not in letter, l would
call attention to the fact that under this
same Republican administration Encke's
comet is to reappear again this fall and
tear it's senseless way across our solar
system! The Republicans admit the fact
themselves, and having, unfortunately, a
majority of the educated class in their
ranks, including almost all astronomers,
they should certainly be conversant
with the situation.
November.
Gentlemen, could, were l so inclined,
refer to the fact that, under this same
Republican administration, it is admitted
that November is coming again; No
vember, with it's lowering skies and long
gray stretches Of hub-deep muddy roads
and consequent strain upon the farmers
horsefesh. Gentlemen, the farmers are
the bone and sinew Of the land. A
calamity to them is a calamity to all.
That other things than bad roads are not
unlikely to occur to some Of US in No
vember next may be fact, but upon
that we need not dwell.
Imperialism and the Tariff.

allude to the fact that our utmost voice,

l shall endeavor to express myself in
a manner which will be no discredit to

methods of speech Of a distinguished

as ''innocuous deSuetude" or "pernicious
activity" but 1 fatter myself that, in

Praises the Platform.
The sublime platform recently con-
structed at st. Louis, apparently out Of
loose boards left over from the Louisi-
ana Purchase Exposition is assuredly
marvel Of compact quotations from an
Gent and modern Sages. AS q matter or
course, it makes a liberal use of the de-
ceased Thomas Jefferson-as party we
always use the deceased Thomas JEFF
ferson-but 1T goes farther and promises
to correct every known and consider
able number Of unknown wrongs and out
RACES, wherever, whatsoever and how
ever they appear in the boundless uni
verse. It VOWS to pry into, investigate,
drag out and jack up the scandals and
breaches of public trust, which we all
know exist everywhere, when we are out
of Office. Gentlemen, l approve Of the
platform.
Liberty.
Incidentally l will now refer to lib
erty, and I feel that | may do so fear
lessly, as it is a well-known assertion, if
not a fact, that many crimes have been
committed in the name Of said liberty.
Liberty is-in short, liberty is something
we always refer to in the platform.
Power a Menace.
Thomas Jefferson said about all there
was worth saying about power, but l
may add a few well-chosen words of
warning. There is danger in the very air
Of Washington-nay, in the air of the
entire District Of Columbia. L do not
fear it, and may never have to breathe
it, anyway, but, fellow citizens, warn
you against the microbe of power which
infests the land watered by the historic
Potomac. The power which seeks to
do things, to accomplish work, to create,
