THURSDAY, DECEMBER 81, 1905.

Statesmanship was not distin-
gushing characteristic of the speeches
of those assemblymen who raised their
voices in opposition TO the proposition
to remove the circle from the official
ballot. One Daniel opposed the Mass
achusetts ballot on the ground that 1t
would not work we'll on IL voting ma
chine. 1t evidently didn't occur to
him that the fact that n proper form
OF ballot could not be easily voted on
machine ought TO be an argument
against the machine aud not against
the ballot.

out of its way To dc kindness TO poor

ans have come TO know the corpora
tion, and particularly the public-ser-
vice corporation as one that realizes
no duty other than prescribed by the

to the hope that perhaps the appelIa-

Evansville, Wis, Dec. ~. Manag II
Osborn Of the Rock County Sugar Co.
has begun q campaign among the beet
growers OF southern Wisconsin to de-
feat the rs per cent reduction on Phll'
ippine sugar. Every beet grower In
the southern part Of the state and In
northern Illinois will receive II report
of the Investigations of special rep
resentative OF the beet sugar men In
the Philippines and they will be urged
to write their congressman TO vote
against the measure when 1t Is pre-
scented. AS the majority OF the beet
growers live In the First congression-
nj district and Congressman Cooper
is known TO favor the bill, his vote
will be watched with interest.
This Is so called protection.
This Is what the standpatters braH-
emily stand for.
This is the doctrine which Governor
Cummings and his kind Of tariff re.
formers feel constrained TO acknoW-
ledge before they very mildly ask for
u reduction OF the Dingley schedules.
This Ia the policy in which the poo
pie have long acquiesccd, as Presi-
dent Roosevelt remarks, And his re-
peatod use of the word may imply that
In his heart Of hearts he wonders at
their long acquiescence
Protection Is II good word, but it Is
misused by the high tariff takers as "
pleasing name for their scheme which
is to invoke tho taxing power OF the
federal government to make their own
business profitable, regardless Of the
consequent hindrance to the general
welfare
IL IL said that Malcom j. 1ellrls Of
GAINESVILLE, who is aspirant for the re-
publican congressional nomination In
the first district, chiefly bases his can
didacy upon the championship by him
of the sugar and tobacco interests
along high tariff lines II this be true
he ought TO DO beaten out Of his boots.
Cattle raising, butter making, cheese
making, and other unprotected inter.
ests ought not to be compelled TO pay
tribute to the sugar trust, the tobacco
trust, or any other beneficiary of high
seaboard taxes. A strictly revenue
tariff Is the only iustlhable tariff,
ANY fight against graft as graft will
be but halting while ono form of graft
Is exalted In the nation
