WHY COLORADO OBJECTS
Weighty p asons Cite d by Mr..
Walsh for Opposing the Tafti-
tln3 Policy of Free Trade.

The proposed reduction of the
Tariff,upon sugar and other products
imported from the Philippines for
he purpose Of aiding the Filipinos
will meet with strong opposition.
1n'spite Of the efforts of Secretary
Taft to, overcome this opposition by
taking Representatives on pleasure
jaunt to the islands there will devel
op stout protest in congress against
the PROPOSAL to help the Fillpinos at
the expense of an American industry
that is just in its infancy.
1t is frequently declared by the
advocates of Free Trade with the
Philippines that the Tariff would be
reduced or abolished if it were not
for the opposition of the Sugar
Trust. /, But the opponents ofreduc
ed Tariff are equally insistant in de-
clariug that the Sugar Trust or cor.
porations like it would be the sole
beneficiary of the reduction.
The State of Colorado is vitality
interested in this subject on account
of the beet sugar industry. This in
dustry means work for the farmer
and laborer, business for the rail-
olds and merchants and prosperity
for the whole state. 1t is ons of the
most important adjuncts to irriga
ton, enabling the home makers Of
G dorado to turn the desert into
fruitful fields. The interest of Col
orado in Philippine Tariff Legislation
affecting sugar was discussed yester
day in its broadest aspects by Mr.
Thomas S. Walsh, the famous Colo
radoan, who makes his home il
Washington. He is intensity inter
, ested i'll The prosperity of his stat
and believes that a reduction in tn
sugar Tariff would mean ruin to al
industry that is beginning to trans
form Colorado into one of the rich
est agricultural states in the union
81 don't care to speak of an
other state than Colorado" salt
Mr.. Walsh, when questioned by tn
+ "Post" reporter regarding the gen
. eral effect of sugar Tariff changes
"That is my state, l know all abou
, it, and my heart is there. l dom:
own a dollars worth of beet suga
land, nor have l dollars interes
in any beet sugar enterprise. Blu
!, l do have an interest in Colorado
and her prosperity.

ED HOWE IN JAPAN

We left Tokyo last evening at !
O'Clock, taking sleeping car for
Kyoto, where we arrived at 8 o'clock
this morning. A ricksha man we
had employed for two days, occom-
panied us to the railroad station,
and we had no trouble whatever In
finding our sleeping car; we felt
perfectly at ease; it is as easy for
an American to travel in Japan as
in. America. Indeed, | think 1t is
easier; the railway and hotel officials
are potter here than in America,
and pay travellers more attention,
Our train was the Imperial express
and carried a DINING car. We had
two berths in compartment, and
our fellow passenger was Japanese
naval officer with decorations on his
3breast. When he came in, he bowed
ITO US politely. In a compartment
adjoining ours was Judge Tracy,
with his family; who is going out to
assume his duties as chief justice of
the Philip pines. With Mr.. and
Mrs. Tracy, we walked through the
long train to the dining carr through
many cars filed with japanese pas
sengers. I think the only Ameri-
cans on the train were those in our
party, going to rejoin the "Siberia"
at Kobe. Arrived at the DINING
car served with very good dinner
for SO cents each, American money,
except that the butter was poor, as
it is everywhere in Japan. Among
those in the dining car was JAP
anese field MARSHAL, and all along
the line distinguished men and wo.
men came to the stations to present
him with cards aud bow to him,
AT one station thousands of people
had collected and every man, wo
man and child carried Japanese
lantern. AT another station there

railways have narrower gage than
the American railways between our

CHRISTMAS IN CHANUTE

Every Chanuteite ell e brated
Christmas in his own way.
There was no big public demon
stsatiofr of any kind. The stores
were open most of the forenoon and
generally did rushing business.
There were many private dinners
and small social gatherings. The
Salvation Army did the honors to
the poor of the city, and right roy
ally did they do II. They had gath
cred from the charitable people and
benevolent orders of the city vast
stores of good things to eat, and
gave very fine dinner it their hall
to the poor. They fed at the long
table about ITO people and then
had left a vast amount of provisions
which we're put up IN baskets and
sent out to the homes Of The 'deser
wing poor. Captain Hines estimates
that at the hall, and by the means

with intent to murder. The court then
sat at Daphne. Judge James T. Jones
was presiding at the trial of Jackson.
II remember ectly. he was then a
very sick man and at the end of the
trial he was much fatigued and after
charging the jury told them that IL
they came to a verdict within certain
time before morning they should re-
port to him at hotel where he was
staying The Sheriff had been instruct
ed to also bring the prisoners to the
hotel and In the event of conviction he
would sentence them The jury rend-
cred verdict very soon thereafter in
the hotel as directed, finding the de-
PENDANTS guilty. Sentence was passed
upon them, each getting ten years, I
believe.
Jackson and his fellow defendants,
If they are living, are scot free today.
The Supreme Court held that the part
of the proceedings at the hotel was not
according to law and that the trial
complete should have been held in the
Court House and nowhere else. The
decision discharged the defendants and
they could not again be convicted be-
cause they pleaded former jeopardy.
From this II was concluded that Bay
Minette trials would be a myth IL
Daphne is finally pronounced the legal
county seat of Baldwin. IL part of a
trial In a hotel at Daphne was not good

from the county seat would become

United States Has No Troops to with

Washington, Nov. 1.-The State De-
partment has been informed at the Inc
stance OF Emperor William that steps
have been taken to secure the with
drawal of the troops of the allied pow
ers associated in the suppression of
the Boxer uprising. which were assign
ed to the protection OF the road from
Pekin to Tientsin.
One of the articles Of the treaty
signed at the termination OF the Boxer
uprising conferred upon the powers the
right 20 police this road. the purpose
being to insure safe line of retreat
from Pekin for the diplomats and 9TH
er foreigners in that capital and there
by avoid a recurrence OF the siege of
the legations of 1900.
Not all of the powers availed of the
permission and America refrained from
stationing troops on the road. A small
guard of soldiers. however. was sta
toned at the American legation In Pc
kin and this force has only recently
been relieved by detachment OF about
forty marines. 1t is understood here
that there is no intention OF doing
away with these guards and the EN-
peror's proposition applies solely to
the troops stationed on the Tientsin-

The face OF Henry o. Maxwell. a
well developed newsboy 16 years old
made its appearance before Judge Ba-
bers bar of justice yesterday afternoon
to answer to the grave charge of dis
orderly conduct. He had thrown a
brick at q negro ON South Perry Street
Tuesday afternoon.
The youngster was confronted by his
accuser, one Robert Jones, a full grown
white man, who said that Maxwell had
performed the act of throwing three
times while he, Jones. was going down
Perry Street. And the worst of 1t was
that the missiles had Just missed the
pedestrian by FIVE feet.
Maxwell was asked IL he had any
witnesses. He sobbingly replied that
Roland Burroughs, another newsboy
about 10 years old, was there when 1t
happened. The Burroughs boy was
called to the witness stand.
1T was this way" said Burroughs in
loud voice. "the niger called Max
well a bad name and the Niger had a
big stick and he was bigger than Max
well and Maxwell picked up some
bricks. l saw him throw one time"
Recorder Baber patiently gave ear
to the testimony while Maxwell sat in
his chair occasionally raising his right
hand, as IL in school, to ask II he might
put questions to the witness. At the
conclusion of the testimony Judge Ba-
Der severely reprimanded the boy and
told him hereafter to keep from throw
ing stones. The boy listened atten-
lively and left the court room with his
friend.
