this judgment and speaking to rep
Secretary of the Interior Hitchcock,
said:
"You can say that l am surprised
and indignant. The punishment IS
utterly inadequate. The indictment
was the result of four years OF determ-
ined effort and the expenditure OF
thousands of dollars by the depart
ment. We had selected the largest
operators in the hope that the result
would be warning to those engaged
on a smaller scale. That the case
was strong one is evident by the fact
that the men pleaded guilty. The re-
suit is discouraging but we shall not
cease our efforts. They have promis-
ed to tear down their fences and Il
they do not keep the promise they
will be indicted again and again until
they learn that laws are made to be
obeyed. We will not let up

Workingmen of the Country Are in

Policy.

Workingmen are no less Interested
than employers in the reports of~the
conferences President Roosevelt Is
having at Washington with republic
can leaders from various sections on
the subject of the tariff. In Massa-
chusetts and Wisconsin there are some
republican tariff revisionists who are
aching for a tariff tinkering seance in
the coming session of congress, and
they have been laboring to bring the
president around to their way of
thinking. The workingmen
Of the country are not low tariff men,

the politicians that President Roose-
velt's majority. in spite of his tremen-
dous popularity. would have been q
great deal less IL 1t had not been for
the plank in the democratic platform
denouncing protection as robbery. 1t
is all right to interpret the election as
an approval of antitrust policy, but
to attempt to read q demand for tariff
revision into 1t Is utterly unwar-
ranted. The mills are generally start
ing up again. 1t Is to be hoped that
our industries are not to be thrown
into confusion by a tariff revision
right at the moment when signs of
recovery are appearing. The presi-
dent will make no mistake in turning
q deaf ear to the taliff thinkers.

BOYHooD OF AL. j. PlTKlN.
How the New President Of Locomo-
tive Company Struggled to
Study Mechanics.

Albeit j. Pftkin was not apprenticed
because of any Discrimination on his part
TO study, but simply because his father.
Presbyterian minister with charge
now in one town and now in another,
could not afford to send his boy through
college, although he desired to do so.
Noting his love for mechanics, he did the
next best thing. and apprenticed him
to learn the machinist's trade. When he
was IL years old, he was sent to live with
his grandfather, In Granville, o., who
owned and operated cabinetmanufac-
turing shop. This the boy haunted; II
became his playground. With remark
able cleverness he made, out OF wood,
machinery that would perform differ
ent kinds of work. Once, with spin
ming wheel. which he found in an attic,
as the principal pulley, and with coarse
string for belts, he devised machine by
means of which he sawed wood. Be-
cause of his ingenuity there sprang up.
between grandfather and grandson, ar
almost chummy friendship. He gained
his characteristic sobriety and serious
consideration of things through con-
slant association with his grandfather
who first taught him how to use a
chisel and mallet, how to drive nail
through narrow piece OF wood with
out cracking IL, and how to sandpaper
and rub down cabinet to make ready
years old he had mastered the con-
structive details Of the portable engine
of the shop. He could also run the
turning lathe and other machines. One
day, while on visit to Newark, o.. he
went through machine shop. He had
never before seen metal being manu-
featured into machinery. The rasping
and harsh noises Of It's cutting were
music to his ear. From that time forth
the cabinet shop was barren of attrac-
tlon, and the dreams his grandfather
may have entertained of some day TAX
Ing him into partnership disappeared as
quickly as shavings in furnace. He
determined to become a machinist. to
learn how to design machinery, and to
become eminent as an engineer.
He began as an apprentice at GO cents
day in the Webster, Camp & Lane Ma
chine company's shops, chipping cast
ings with hand tools, and ended by as
sisting in setting up stationary engines
In neighboring villages, and, on the ex-
piration of his time. was engaged at
S2.25 a day. For his betterment, after
a year, he considered 1t wise to avail
himself of an opportunity to enter the
locomotive repair shops of the Cleve-
land. Akron & Columbus railroad. He
had always felt the common romantic
interest in locomotives, and had de-
lighted to watch their movements. The
locomotive then became his study.
When he crawled under one to make re-
pairs 1t was with students interest as
we'll as workman's skill. He familiar
lied himself with the mechanism Of all
the existing styles on that railroad

ALLIANCE WITH PoPULIsM.
Something That the Republican Party
Is Not Likely to Be
Guilty OF.

Some eastern and western papers,
republican and democratic, are inti-
mating that certain populistic doctrines
may engraft themselves onto republican
policy by the time the canvass of 1908
opens. They apparently think that the
democratic party has become so weak
and despicable that no minor party or
new political sect of any sort will care
to enter into alliances with It, or make
any overtures for its support.
But there Is not the slightest reason,
says the st. Louis Globe-Democrat, to
fear that the republicans will make any
surrender to populism. There are some
radicals in the republican party, but
they are compelled to accept republican
doctrine and to work for the party in
the orthodox way. A great deal was
heard about the Iowa idea on the tariff
few years ago. Where is the Iowa
idea now? Not whisper was heard
about 1t in the canvass OF 1904. 1t will
not come up in congress in the present
session. Nobody is talking about it
anywhere. The Iowa idea is forgotten
even in Iowa.
The republican party stands for sane,
conservative, progressive Americanism.
The republican who cannot accept this
doctrine gets out of the republican party.
1t Is limited that Gov. La Toilette, Gov.
Cummins and a few other western re-
publicans will put some queer planks
into the republican platform in 1908.
Let nobody believe a word of this. Those
personages have considerable follow
ing in their states. On certain issues they
are at variance with the majority OF
their party. But in the republican
party the majority rules. The major
ity frames platforms, puts up tickets
and carries elections. The republican
party has a record for conservatism
and balance. 1t will maintain this rec
ord to the end. The republican who
makes any radical departure from the
sound traditions of orthodox party doc
trine will be compelled to get outside
the party line. The republicans are
ready to deal with new issues of any
sort as they arise. They willdeal with
them in the same sort of a spirit as that
in which they settled the slavery issue,
placed the greenbacks on the specie line,
and established the gold standard.
Whatever the conditions may be in 1905
the republican party will be ready to
meet them In sane, courageous and
robustly American way.

spring from the bush into the path. The
beast shifted the rifles and paved them

are more dangerous to an unarmed man.
for they are hungry always, and man

would taste, and then again roaring and

Il was a rhinoceros, big, black and
ugly. The lion would gladly have turned
tail, but the rhino was upon him too soon
and cornered the old cat. Then his
fighting blood awoke.
| He made a spring for the rhino, jump
ing sideways. and landed on his shout

and, after confused tumble Of lighting
bodies, accompanied by terrific roars and
mighty shorts and puffs, we saw that the
rhino had shaken on his antagonist.
The two faced each other again. The
lion backed away and evidently was
about to run for II, when the rhino
charged. The lion sprang into the air to
dodge. but the great horn Of the rhino
caught him in the side and we heard q
terrible ripping sound. Then the two
combatapts were hidden by the bush,
from which the rhino presently emerged
alone, making uncouth noises and an
parently in great rage. He tossed hia
head as II he scented us, but In his mad
anger rushed wildly away, crashing
through the forest.
Descending from the tree and regain

the party which had been sent out IN
