NOTHING MORE TO BE DONE
The Tariff Is Safe in the Hands Of
the Fifty Ninth Con-
gress.

It seems to be as good as settled that
reciprocity and tariff revision are not
to be had at the hands of the Fifty-nintb
congress. That is a welcome prospect,
says the American Protectionist. Not
until the reciprocity and revision forces
shall have captured the congress district
conventions of 1906 will industry and
production and trade and labor have any
reason to draw tighter the lines of enter
prise and activity.
1t would be we'll if definite assurance
of a determination to let the tariff
alone during the life of the Fifty-ninth
congress were to be given by caucus
action. as is foreshadowed by the
Evening Post. Such a course of pro.
cedure would be square and manly. II
would tell the business community and
the wage earners just what to expect
and what not to expect for at least two
years to come. 1t would relegate the
tariff ripping issue back to the people
where it belongs. 1t would give the
American Reciprocal Tariff league fail
notice and an invitation to make its
fight on clearly defined lines. 1t would
give to the great producing interests
and to the millions who earn and spend
high wages solid round on which tC
make their stand for continued pros
perity, continued protection, continued
tariff stability 1t would make reel
procity and revision an open question
inside the republican party. 1t would
bring the matter to show of hands
next year. To that it must come al
last. Therefore it would seem the part
of wisdom and good politics for the re
publican majority of the house of repre-
sentatives of the Fifty-ninth congress
to settle the controversy by definite eau.
Gus action at the earliest possible stage
pledging the republican party to lei
the tariff alone during the life of the
present congress.

AN EXPOSE OF GRAFTERS.
1t Is Promised at st. Paul, Mimi
Former State Officials Are Said
to be Involved.

st. Paul, Mimi, Oct. 21.-The scene
of the investigation by the Hennepin
county grand jury of the old officers of
the Northwestern National Life Insur-
ance Co., of Minneapolis, may be
transferred to st. Paul
Payments of money have come to
light, it is said, for corrupt purposes
made in St. Paul which may necessi-
tate action by the local courts in Or
der to secure a conviction.
Testimony already placed before the
grand jury involves two former state
officials, the alleged payment in a
room in the Ryan hotel of a $4,000
check for the suppression of report
exposing the condition of the company
and voluntary contribution of $1,000
each to the two democratic and repub-
lican state central committees.
Another state official is credited
with receiving $780, in installments of
$3.50 EACH for Sunday work done in
clerical capacity. He figured as an
expert accountant. AS to the campaign
contributions they are said to be
youched for in a confession made by
one of the old officers, but its receipt
is denied in the case of the democrats
on the authority of Labor Commission
to whom the tender was practically
made.
The Northwestern Life Insurance
Co as reorganized is not concerned in
this investigation.

REVIEW OF TRADE.
Business Brisk and Steadily lmprov-
ing, Especially in Iron and Steel.

New York, Oct. Pr. G. Dun &
Co.'S Weekly Review of Trade says:
Activity broadens in commercial
channels and confidence expands be-
cause of the many evidences of con
servatism. Business is brisk and i'm
proving and there is no disposition to
start a boom either in commodities or
securities. Manufacturers receive lib
eral orders for remote deliveries,
many dealers having covered spring
requirements, and shipping depart
ments are forwarding as freely as traf-
fic facilities will permit.
Current retail trade is not equalling
expectations, but this is attributed to
mild autumn weather, and prepara-
tiOns for the future are undiminished.
Especially good news is received from
the iron and steel centers, output of
mills and furnaces increasing, without
relieving the pressure for quick deliv-
cry.
Failures this week numbered 233 in
the United States, against 215 last
year, and 3S in Canada, compared with
80 year ago.

Enterprise National Bank, of AIIe-

ier Suicides.

Pittsburg, Oct. 19.-After an inyesti-
cation of the books of the Enterprise
national bank, of Allegheny, which
disclosed that the bank was insolvent,
Il. Lee Clark, cashier of the institu-
tion for years, went to his home, $40
Lincoln avenue, Bellevue, Tuesday
night, spent sleepless night and yes
terday morning took poison and shot
himself through the head. He fingered
until 2:30 o'clock. when death came.
An hour before the announcement
of his death was received at the bank,
telegram came from the comptroller
of the currency at Washington to
close the doors, and appointing Bank
Examiner John B. Cunningham as re-
ceiver
Following closely on the order of
exciting events in Allegheny came the
announcement of the president of the
bank, Fred Gwinner that Clark had
loaned thousands of dollars to Penn
sylvania politicians; that he himself
on Tuesday indorsed a note for $4,000
for Clark, concluding with the state
ment that if the shortage was only
100000 he would gladly pay it him

The bank has state deposits which
will amount to about 100000, of
which 5000 is in the checking or
active account and the rest in state
sinking funds.
Mr.. Gwinner in his statement said:
"Nearly 100000 of the 100000 state

Mr.. Clark had lived in Bellevue for
Is years and has always held positions
of the highest honor and trust in his
community. He represented the Sec

Clark was a member of the United
Presbyterian church of Bellevue, be-
ing member of the official board. He
has always taken an active interest in
the work of the church and was it's

NO NEED OF RUNNING RISK
Why Tamper with Tariff That Brings
Good Times and Con-
tentment

In an interesting letter from Wash.
ington to the American Economist AL.
fred ]. Dodge shows that while certain
elements in both the republican and
democratic parties are trying to break
down the tariff wall in this country
other nations which are witnessing the
astounding prosperity that is every,
where prevalent in the United States.
are crying for the adoption of a protec-
tive tariff policy so that they and their
people may also enjoy the blessings
happiness and contentment that
strong tariff measure like the Dingley
law brings.
1t is passing strange, indeed, in the
light of the unprecedented prosperity
that abounds in the United States, that
anyone would even suggest, much less
urge and fight for, change in our tar.
iff laws, and, on the other hand, 1t is
only natural that other countries that
are not enabled to enjoy the fruits of
beneficent legislation such as brought
the United States out of Industrial
darkness into the glorious light of
prosperity and peace should wait with
eagerness for the day when they, too,
shall have a system of protection
which means so much for the manufac.
turer, for the laborer and for the me.
chanic.
If every mill and factory in the coun.
try wasn't running to its full capacity,
and in many cases working overtime;
if every man who wants work was not
employed at better wages than he ever
before received; if we lived in soup
house era, as we did from 1894 to 1897;
in short, if everybody wasn't busy and
had no reason to complain, there might
be some excuse for revision of our
tariff laws, there might be a reason
for trying some new experiment; but
in view of all the facts in the case,
what earthly reason can there be for
change at this time or any other
time until conditions are less favora'
BILE to all classes than they are now?
You may talk about your revision OF
the tariff, YOU may talk about your
reciprocity, you may preach dual tariff,
or you may rant about free trade, but
what for? Isn't everybody happy and
prosperous? Nobody denies it. Then,
if such is the case, why not let well
enough alone? Or, in other words, why
not stand pat?
Tinkering with the tariff is sure tc
be followed by the loss of confidence,
the closing of factories, unemployed la
Dor, hard times and the opening OF
soup houses. This has been the sequel
of all attacks upon our system of pro
lection, and word to the wise is sui
ficient.

EyOur minimum tariff must be one
sufficient to accord us the full meas
upon which we are willing TO trade
with every nation. 1t must be under
stood that we will not cut under this
minimum, for TO do so would virtually
bring us into free-trade relations with
the country to which the further con
cessions were granted. Countries that
will not deal fairly with us on oul
minimum basis should receive the full
force of our maximum duties.-Sprirg

Benefits Importers.

The tariff revisers who demand that
the change in the tariff law, whenever
it shall begin, must not be on the lines
of keeping the American wage Garner in
his Job, but must be on the lines of get
ting articles offered in our market at
the lowest possible prices, whether they
come from American mills and factories
or from those of Germany, England or
anywhere else-these revisers, we sub
nit, must waive all other considerations
than the business of the importer, who
would like to go into the American
field with foreign article and outsell
the domestic article, thus closing the
mill and factory of our own country and
putting out of work the American wage
Garner. displaced by the foreigner. If
this is not so, why should there be such
a cry that a revision on Dingley lines
will not satisfy the Cumminses, etc.?-

Women Guests Objectionable.

AS a general rule, the leading hotels
in New York rather discourage lone
women guests. No matter how well
recommended they come or how GER
tain the management is of their re-
spectability, they always tack about 20
per cent on the price of apartments
when they are let to women. Wom-
en- do not patronize the bar; they dc
not spend much money in the dining
room; they are inclined to make their
own coffee for the morning in their
own rooms; they tack pictures on eX-
pensive wall paper; they demand more
service than the men; they do not en-
tertain in the way that helps the ho-
tel to make money; they are apt to
keep a pet dog without telling the
proprietor about il in advance. When
they wear waists that button down the
back they want the housekeeper OF
the floor to come in and button them
up or down for them. They are al
ways demanding ezra service Of a
kind which costs the hotel money, but
rney are not inclined to pay for it.
