Why should not the protective tariff
policy be as firmly and irrevocably
established" as the Democratic party and
Its candidate for the Presidency con-
csdes the gold standard to be?
The gold standard was advocated by
che Republican party, and on this issue
the country went Republican by an over
whslming majority. The question of
sarin or free trade, and tariff reform

sral national campaigns, and the people
BY their votes decided finally that the
protective tariff principle should prevail
and that this country should be recox-
mixed as favoring and supporting pro-
lection and not free trade. The Demo-
cratic party was placed in power and
given the opportunity of demonstrating
the fallacy Of it's free trade or tariff for
rsvenue-only policy, and the result was

SOMETHING GROTESQUE.
Hills 1mpudent Attack Upon Presi-
dent Roosevelt.

dent Roosevelt.
In letter to Ferdinand Zegel, Presi-
dent of the Commercial Travellers
League, David Bennett hlA assaults the
President in language which, to say the
least, is lmpertinent from the point of
view of gentlemen. He accuses the Pres
ident of ''brag and buster" and refers
to the "dignified and conservative gen.
tleman the Democrats have nominated"
This comes well from the New York
Democrat, generally admitted to be the
foxiest politician and the one most lack
ing in broad craftsmanship in the Uni
ted States. There is certain breezi-
ness and impudence exhibited when he
compares his own creature and appointee
to the bench with man like Theodore
Roosevelt, which commands attention,
If, at the same time, the very opposite
OF respect. This one thing may be, at
least, said of David Bennett Hill who
is now the entire Democratic party in
the United States and whose creature is
the party's candidate. that he has ever
the brazenness of his n-convictions.
He has certain clever wordiness, too.
But facts are facts, and facts are
stubborn things. David Bennett Hill is
practically directing the course Of the
Democratic party. His own henchman,
his political manager in New York, Al
ton b. Parker is the man installed by
him as the Democratic candidate for the
Presidency, passable jurist, possibly,
shrewd political manager; certainly. a
man unheard of generally until his own
er nominated him as the candidate for
the Presidency of a decadent party. |
But to talk of him as a President is
absurd David Bennett Hill is certainly !
a "plunger' with his vassals in politics. |

Anent the Democratic desire to haul
down the flag in the Philippines, it may
be said the Stars and Stripes has never
been lowered where it has been raised
as an emblem of sovereignty, except in
Hawaii, where it was hauled down by
Grover Cleveland, Democrat. Tho

lower the flag in the Philippines 10 the
first proposal of the kind that any Amer

In the local theater on Sunday night,
Jan. II, it will be the last of Sabbath
shows in this place. Plays have flour

the period of change can be avoided or
overcome.

encourages the appetite and induces re-
