AssA1L1Na THE TARIFF
Democrats Seem Determined to Force .
Disturbing Issue.

Disturbing Issue.
Signs increase that the Democratic
leaders are determined to force the
tariff issue to the front in the prcsi-
Dental campaign. While Republicans
will welcome the discussion of this
question, well knowing that it is urc
to add many thousands of votes to
their ma %jorities. they cannot but re-
greet the selection Of the tariff as the
main issue, because of the unfortunate
influence it will have upon the bust
ness interests of the country.
So far this year the presidential
financi&l activity. Affairs proceed us
usual. LII all lines of business there
is Il h0I yf,t.lpSs and confidence which
is most { rr|raging. But if the cnI /
try is TO = confronted with another
visitation Il tariff revision agitation.
with ever :: remote chance of sue
cess in the { elton. there is bound to
be a great lump in the Industrial
world and Il corresponding depression
in all business interests.
1t is well remembered what hap
pencd ten years ago, when. as preSi-
dent Roosevelt puts it, 1.-The last at
tempt was made ly means of lower
ing the tariff to prevent such people
from prospecting too much The at
tempt was entirely successful. The
tariff law of that year WAS among the
causes which in that year and for
some time afterwurd effcctually
prevented anybody from prospecting at
all. Undoubtedly it would be possible
Mt the present time to prevent amy
of the trusts from remaining prosper
Ous by the simple cXpedient of max
ing such a sweeping change III the
tariff as to paralYZe the industries of
the country
The people of the United States
will not Soo court again the drStruc-
ton and panic of 1881. Once is enough
for II generation. There will he &,
tremendous vote against tariff lr.iSI;,-
ton by the Democrats.
The cOnii,irilcr of tho country mily
stand even throughout a tariff revision
campaiSr. but it is riSking Il good
deal to raise that issue in the manner
contemplated. They, however. have
everything to gain ana nothing to
lose. They must have something
to stand upon. and complete failure
incvcry other attack made upon
h Republican position has driven

Parker and the Trusts.

Trust maguates having furnished
the funds to carry on Parker's cam
paigll, will now be relegatcd to the
rear. However, Cord Meyer of the
sugar trust and other representatives
Of grasping corporations have such a
hold on the Democratic candidate that
they will continue to control him.
Their rclrgation to the G a is merely
q 'blind" to deceive the people. When
Parker visited New York he told his
managers he did not wish his remarks
OF the trusts "%'atee1ed," and that dur
ing the remainder of the campaign the
magnatcs who have been parading and
jubilating over his nomination should
be less open in their demonstrations
Of JOY. He further said he could not
get close to the people us long as the
trust magnates openly shouted for
him. What the judge meant was that
his wealthy sponsors should keep
dark" until after election, when they
could come to the front again.

The New York Times, one of the
Democratic newspapers which has
been dcnormrin- President Roosevrlt's
Philippine policy. recently printed an
editorial leader Oil the settlement of
the Friars' land question. The article
concludes: 1T is c%rcditable both to the
intelligence and he humanity of the
government" II The Times was less
partisan it could truthfully say that
every act Of the Roosevelt adminls-
tration in dealing with the Philippine
question was crrditable to the Cnite,'
States,

Legislative Landmarks.

Some of the lhndmm KS of historic
legislation created during President
ROoScvclt's administration are: o. The
law for the civil government of the
Philippines: ca corporate legislation,
chief of which is that creating the
department of m and labor,
with broad powers, which, in the ma
ture of things, must steadily grow:
co Cuban reciprocity comforting ml-
terial benefits on both Cuba and the
United States: a. the treaty and laws
that make the Panama canal Il GER
tainty; tN the law for the irrigation
of the arid lands of the great west.
Against these accomplished results
during one administration of the party
that does things the Democratic party
has nothing to offer but empty words
and Understanding promises.

Candidate and Platform,

This years presidential election will
not be o by any formal platform.
The Republican platform is good, but
the Republican candidate is better.
The truth is Mr.. Roosevelt is the real
platform for both parties. He is the
main point of attack by the Demo
Gratis and the main source of strength
for the Republicans. He would lie
elected without any platform except
the record Of the party and his own.

Having ''monkeyed' with "Roose-
veltism' until they found the buzz
saw, the Democrats are now tempting
the foolkiller by reviving the cry that
protection is robbery" Eight years
ago the workingmen of this country
decided that protection is Il blessing.
and they have not changed their
minds

President Roosevelt personally
stands for courage, honesty, decency,
strength and common sense. AS a Re-
publican he stands for wise admins
tration Of the laws, serving all classes
alike. lie realizes he is the servant
of all the people, sworn to act without
discrimination.

phrase that is helping the Republicans

There seems to be one tie that
binds New York's judicial candidate
for the presidency and the Democratic
candidate for governor of New York
they both voted for free silver in
1896 and 1900. Neither of them APP
parently would have conscientious
scruples about voting for a yellow dog,
provided he had the regular emblem
Of his party branded on both ears and
wagged his tail without the consent {

Judge Parker's attempt to pose as a
bulwark against Democratic attacks
sn the personal honor and integrity
Of President Roosevelt" is one of the
humorous incidents of the campaign.
No Democrat has yet had the temer-
lily to assail the presidents personal
honor and integrity" and none is
likely to make the attempt while the
president is awake. Parker evidently
has gore tnto ~ circus business.

little sea wall or took even more com
Portable poses on the coral sands Of
the beach. The buildings and trees all
sparkled with electric lights and when
the moon passed above the threatening
clouds the scene was one not soon to
be forgotten.
Taking advantage of the beauty Of
the evening and of the program pro-
vided there We're many bathing parties
organized and the beach was thronged
with muscular men and girls in fetch
ing bathing dress. The members Of
the band seemed to catch the spirit of
the occasion for the music was never
better and bandmaster Berger was
overwhelmed with many encores. Even
after the program had concluded a
large part of the crowd fingered at the
beach enjoying the ocean breees for a
long time. The wish that the concert
be repeated was generally expressed.

ABLE RESIDENCES At WAIKIKI
Lieutenant Slattery engineering Of
ficer of the lighthouse board, is nego-
tiating on behalf of the Army Depart
ment, for the acquisition of land for
site of the Notifications that are to be
utilized for defending this island from
attack 1t Is understood that THE
handsome Waikiki residences owned by
Mrs. Along and Messrs Pratt Hobrcn,
and Schaefer have been selected as one
site. The other site is a plot of land
about 100 acres in extent, situated on
the eastern side of the Pearl Harbor
entrance.
On both of these places heavy coast
defence batteries are to be located. in
addition to the Along, ct al site, a third
battery is to be located on the slopes of
Diamond Head
Negotiations for the purchase of the
various sites have already been started
Lieutenant Slattery has been watching
the real estate valuations for some
months past. 1t is said that fully
$40, 600 may be spent for the Puuloa
site, as it is intended to establish an
extensive fort at that place. This fort
will be especially important as it will
be the principal defence to the Pearl
Harbor naval yard that is to be estap>
lished. The prices that will be asked
FOR the Waikiki land will be apt to be
considerable, as all of these places are
improved and are rated among the
choicest of residence lots in Honolulu
Condemnation proceedings will, in all
probability, have to be instituted by
the United States government to secure
possession of the various sites.
No details as to the caliber or char
acter of the guns to be mounted on
the south side of the islands are given
All of the sites were selected by the
Huer engineering board when it visited
this island several years ago. The
work of commencing the Notifications
will, beyond any question, be influenced
by the length of time that will be re-
quired to secure titles to the land re-
Quired.

THE RAILROADD KING

James J. Hill worked in a country
store from the time of his fathers
death while he was stll a boy, until he
was is years old. Then he left Cam
ade to seek his fortunes in the states.
He settled in st, Paul, working as a
shipping clerk. During this time he
also obtained employment as a freight
agent of the st. Paul and Pacific rail-
road. While engaged in these positions
he gained knowledge and capital for
establishing the Red River transporta~
ton company, which paved the way
for his later acquiring control of the
ST. Paul and Pacific.
