TARIFF REVISION.

1t is doubtful if, after his treatment
OF the gentlemen who believe in tariff
revision, President Roosevelt could
carry the good state of Massachusetts,
were the election 10 be held tomorrow.
1t is difficult for outsiders TO under
stand the extent of the feeling in Mas
sachusetts in favor OF tariff revision,
and especially in favor OF reducing the
tariff on certain raw materials. Yet
the rest OF the country should be as
much interested as is Massachusetts,
for the rest OF us, in the end, pay the
bills.
For example, there is the matter of
shoes. Seven hundred establishments
in Massachusetts are engaged in the
manufacture of shoes. Every year they
turn out products of the value of $780,
100000 and the stock, practically all OF
which is hides, cost $4,000, 900. on this
stock they are compelled TO pay tariff
tax Of 10 per cent, or $l1, 00O, 900. This
one item makes a pair of shoes that
should retail for $3.50 cost s..
Who derives the benefit from the
tariff on hides? The farmer? No, for
the farmer doesn't sell hides. He sells
livestock, when he has a surplus. Does
the cattle raiser get the benefit? No.
for the cattle raiser sells his stock on
the hoof. IN at least ninety cases
out of a hundred he sells it to the Meat
trust. The Meat trust kills the steer
and sells the hide to the Massachusetts
shoe manufacturer. being careful to
add to it the amount of the tariff.
The Meat trust certainly does not
need this protection. Therefore the
ten per cent tariff tax is absolutely
without justification. Would the re-
moval of the tariff on hides result in
a reduction in the price of shoes? 1t
would surely have that effect. Gov
ernor Douglas of Massachusetts, says
he pays hundreds of thousands of dol
lars year in duties on hides which he
is compelled TO import. Naturally he
adds the tariff tax 10 the selling price
OF his shoes. The removal Of the tax
would inevitably cheaper shoes.
1t is estimated that all the raw ma
terial used in the various manufactur-
ing establishments of Massachusetts
is valued at 500. 600. 600 The average
tax is about ten per cent. or $40. 600. 900.
Is it worth saving? The president
seems to think not.

1t is an outgTowth of the Frisco way.

and almost every employe on the line,

When Mr.. Winchell was still vice
president, and Mr.. Yoakum still presi-
dent of the Frisco, an old friend met
Mr. Winchell one day on Broadway.
They had not met for years. They
lunched together II hear, said the
friend, that you are doing great work
with Yoakum for the Frisco"
Mr.. Winchell smiled. We don't put
it just that way" he said We do our
work. good or bad, for Yoakum with
the Frisco
This is where Mr.. Winehell learned
his method. Mr. YOakum held his men
not with the iron hand, but in bond
of fellowship. There are no strikes on
the Frisco. Neither does the Frisco
get into wars with the Texas railroad
commission. The Frisco has cut into
the heart of every railroad in the
southwest, but there have been no traf-
fic wars. It was the Yoakum way.

A GOOD IDEA.

The California promotion committee
has evolved an idea that promises to
be of great benefit 70 that state. and,
az there is no copyright on it. it may
be used elsewhere with profit The
committee recognizes the fact that OF
the thousands OF visitors who go to
California every year. comparatively
few get into the interior and see the
possibilities the state offers TO the
homeseeker and the investor. Most of
them content themselves with seeing
The larger cities.
In order TO make it possible for the
dwellers outside the cities TO have en-
opportunity to place the advantages of
their sections before as large a num-
Der of visitors as possible. the general
committee has made the following
proposition:
The committee viii furnish q suit

san Francisco. n stereopticon machine
capable Of handling dissoving as we'll

operator for same. The hall. stereop-

and available TO such organizations as
mentioned above, for the purpose OF
giving illustrated lectures on their va
rious localities. SO that the only ex-
pense that will be necessary for the
local organization. in order that it may
present the industries and the attrac-
tons OF the locality it represents, will
be the furnishing OF a lecturer and the
pictures for reproduction on the
screen"

Of Utah. II is well within the bounds

BURTON AGAIN CONVICTED.

once more Senator J. Il Burton Of
Kansas has been convicted of using
his high Office for his personal profit
by practicing before the postoffice de-
partment for money paid him by the
iialto Grain & Securities company Of
IT. Louis. The second conviction OF
Burton, in spite OF the desperate legal
fight to save him, is a triumph for JUS
tice. 1t is also absolutely convincing
proof of his guilt. Had there been any
way of eXculpating Burton he would
have been acquitted.
IL so often happens in the tedious
and complicated course Of our Grim
inal procedure that a man. in the face
of overwhelming proof, is convicted at
first hearing, secures a new trial and
then is acquitted when he is tried
again. Especially is this true in cases
where defendants can bring powerful
Influences TO bear. as Burton could.

THE BRANCH CASE.

The killing of Midshipman Branch by
Midshipman Meriwether of the United
States Naval academy during the
course Of a boxing contest is one of the
most unfortunate affairs that has ever
befallen a government training school.
Some writers have referred to it as
the most disgracefuP' affair, but it is
hardly that. Had it not been for the
tragic ending. we are sure that most
people would have commended the
young men for settling their differences
with the weapons nature gave them,
instead OF with more deadly ones. a
The evidence submitted 10 the court
martial Of Meriwether goes 10 show
that for weeks Branch prosecuted him.
No opportunity TO slight MeTiwether
was overlooked by Branch. On every
occasion he was Inundated. This state
of affairs could not long be endured by
n man of the pluck we expect to find
in our naval and military schools. 1t
was natural for Meriwether to resent
Branch's constant naggihg; it was nat
ural for him to be sincerely glad to
meet Branch in a ring with boxing
gloves to settle their difficulty once and
for all.
We do not believe anyone will claim
that Meriwether hoped or expected TO
kill Branch. Such a thought never oc-
CURED TO him. His one idea was TO
give his adversary such a pummelng
as would make him let him alone. In
deed, the chances are that both young
men expected. after the battle, TO
shake hands and be good friends, as
so many young men have done before
under similar circumstances, SO any
idea that the killing was malicious,
that it was intentional, that it was
anything but accidental, must be elm
mated
1t was as pure an accident, almost,
as the killing of one friend by another
on a hunting expedition. We don't
know what the result OF the court
martial viii be. AIeriwether may be
dishonorably discharged from the ma
val academy: he may be visited with
even severer punishment; but it must
be remembered that no penalty that
can be inflicted upon him win hurt
him much now. His life is ruined. AS
long as ne lives he viii carry. this bur
den. though we refuse to consider it a
burden of guilt.
And a closer supervision of the hab-
it's of the midshipmen in regard to
their treatment Of their comrades
could not possibly do any harm.
