the REPUBLICAN, PROGRAM.

At recent meeting of the Home Mar
ket Club of Boston, Congressman James
7. McCleary, the defeated stand-patter
of Minnesota, declared in substance that
protection" was the highest express
sion of benevolent patriotism.
Mr.. Charles Heber Clark, of the Man.
ufacturers' Club of Philadelphia, stated
that our prosperity and the influx of
immigrants were due to the tariff.
Mr.. James w. Van Cleave, of st.
Louis, president of the National Asso-
citation of Manufacturers, said that he
was in favor of ultimate revision of the
tariff, but wanted nothing whatsoever
done for two years to come.
"Let us urge the present Congress, "
said he, next year to pass an act Great
ing tariff commission, to go over the
entire Dingley law, schedule by sche-
dule, and make report to Congress,
which can be used by Congress as bas-
is for revision. Then let US urge the
Republican party, in its national plat
form of 1908, to promise to revise the
tariff Immediately after the Inaugural
ton of the Republican President who is
to be elected in that year. Then, at
the earliest possible moment after the
Inauguration of 1909 let that President,
as Mckinley did in 1897, when he step
ped into office, call Congress together
and revise it..
There you are with the Republican
principle and the Republican program
protection:as patriotic principle and
no revision of the Dingley tariff for
more than two years. Rich uond Times
Dispatch.
If this be the Republican program, is
it not a sensible one? What's the mat
ter with the Dingley law anyway? Who
is it hurting, what community in the
United States is being injured under its
operations, or what class of our citizens
are complaining of its inequalities? We
defy our Richmond contemporary to
point out intelligently and successfully
any class of citizens who are being rob-
bed by the Dingley law or any commun-
ity that is not prospecting under it. Just
look at Richmond and see how it is pro-
crossing and growing great under the
Republican policy of protection. The
merchants, the manufacturers and the
laboring men of that city are more pros
porous than they have ever been. A
few days ago we saw in one of our
Richmond exchanges that there was
labor famine in that city and that wages
were unprecedently high. The same
conditions exist in every community in
Virginia and in every section of the
United States. No body is complaining
of the Republican tariff law, except
Democratic politicians and newspapers
and few manufacturers who want GER
tain raw materials put upon the free
list.

The wealth of the Southern States is
growing rapidly and enormously.
Strange to say Virginia is now the
wealthiest of the States that formed
the Southern Confederacy, except the
great Empire State, Texas. The largely
increased wealth of the South is due to
the development of its vast material
resources, the great increase in manu-
featuring enterprises and che conse-
quent development of its agricultural
resources. All this has come under the
economic and industrial policies Of the
Republican party. The most remarka-
BILE thing is that it has been coming
over the protest and the relentless OPP
position of political leaders who have
been dominating the politics of the
South for more than twenty-five years.

Change Of Venue.
(Richmond Times-Dispatch.)


1t was reported in our news columns
yesterday that the people of Princess
Anne county were indignant because of
change of venue in the case of one
John Smith, colored, who had been in
dicted for criminal assault. Feeling
against the negro was so bitter that an
attempt at lynching was feared, and the
prisoner was escorted from the Norfolk
Jail to Princess Anne Courthouse under
military guard, in order to protect him
from the mob. When the prisoner arriv-
ed there was crowd of men around the
station, "many of whom were angry"
says the correspondent, "and their NUT
terings were violent" In view of the
intense situation there was a conference
between the Commonwealth Attorney
and the attorneys for the prisoner, as a
result of which the judge granted a
change of venue on the ground that the
prisoner could not secure fair trial in
Princess Anne county.
For this act the judge and the attor-
neys on both sides are to be commend
ed, and not condemned. The Constitu-
ton guarantees to every man accused Of
crime a fair trial, and when, in any
community, the feeling against the pris-
oner at the bar is 80 intense as to re-
quire military guard to save him from
mob violence, it goes without saying
that a fair trial is impossible. In all
such cases there should be change Of
venue, not on the prisoners account,
per Sc, but on account of our court sys-
tenn itself, and in behalf of law and or
der.
A few years back a prisoner was tried
in the northern part of Virginia for
criminal assault, and although he was
protected by military guard sent to the
scene by the Governor, some man in the
courthouse actually crept up behind him
and slipped moose over his head. 1t re-
quired prompt interference on the part
of the officers to prevent the prisoner
from being choked to death in the pres
ence of the court. 1t is needless to say
that the trial was mockery, and to all
intents and purposes legalized lynch
ing.
The prisoner was doomed long before
the jury took the case. And it is so al
ways when the mob spirit prevails
around the courthouse.

There is some threat of Governor
Swanson calling the Virginia Legisla-
ture to meet in extra session, unless
the railroads consent to make some one
president of the Fredericksburg and
Potomac Railroad who will be free
from the influence of the Pennsylvania
Railroad. An extra session of the
Legislature would give the railroad
lobbyists an excellent opportunity to
show the same skill that they displayed
at the regular session last Winter.

THE WILLIAMSBURG INVESTIGATION

The investigation of the Eastern
State Hospital, at Williamsburg, Va,
by a committee of the Legislature, ap-
pointed for that purpose, has developed
two facts. One of these is that this
important charitable institution has
been in the hands of an incapable man.
agement, and that not only has it been
incapablesbut brutal in many respects.
The other fact developed by the in
yestigation is that there are two war
ring factions in the Democratic party
in Virginia, and that the stronger fac
ton was hostile to the management of
the Eastern State Hospital. If this
war between the factions will only re-
suit in better management of all our
State institutions and an Improvement
in the general conduct of the affairs of
the State government, the struggle
will prove a blessing.

when the glass Is struck. With the free
hand strike the glass outside the line
of cutting, giving a quick, sharp stroke
with any long, fiat instrument, such as
a stick of wood or long bladed knife,
and the cut will be as clean and

A sleisht of Hand Trick.

No doubt you have all wondered at

If you know how 1t is done. Amy
bright boy can do 1t with little prac-
tice.
The handkerchief is packed, by aid
Of a pencil or bit Of stiff wire, into
q dummy finger made Of papier ma
che or celluloid and colored to match
the hand. At the right moment this
Is inserted between the second and
third fingers of the hand. 1t seems in
credible, but 1t is nevertheless true,
that IL the hands are kept in gentle
motion the presence of an additional
finger is never by any chance noticed
Having shown the hands, back and
front, apparently empty, the perform
er brings them together and in so do
ing folds down the dummy finger into
the palm. The fingers Of the hand re-
mote from the spectator then get hold
Of the handkerchief and gradually
work it out toward the finger tips.
The finger remains In the hand and is
at the first opportunity dropped into
a pocket or behind some convenient
object, or the handkerchief may be
spread over the hand containing 1t and
both removed together.

Hours Of SIccD.

The belief that the hours Of sleep
should be artifcially restricted Is con
trary to ordinary good sense. II the
l!Hman body does not need sleep for
the upbuilding Of its tissues it will not
call for it, A rule of health which can
not be wrong is to sleep If possible as
long as any inclination for it exists.
The erroneous view Oh this subject Is
undoubtedly due to the fact that when
the mind and body are thoroughly rest
ed it is often difficult to arouse the
mind from its comfortable lethargy.
On the other hand, the man who is
under Il mental strain and sleeps only
five or six hours at night is keen and
alert soon after awakening. But 1t Is
an unhealthy activity. His nerves are
ut high tension. He is on edge, so to
speak. Such strain long continued
results inevitably in nervous break

Nuue OF NtEt
Rope In Six Foot Mcshes.
If | did not have photographs to of
fer as proof, l might hesitate to pat
upon a fairly well established rcputa-
ton for veracity the strain of standing
for the assertion that the business Of
catching whales-not baby whales, but
big sixty foot right whales-in nets is
carried on In the south Pacific.
The biggest fish stories ever told may
be heard by the wanderer in southern
seas. and some of the most amazing
of them are literally true This whale
netting yarn is not strictly fish story,
because n whale is not really Il fish,
and 1t Is not the most startling Of the
collection in my south sea notebook,
but let it 80 as fish story.
Wangamumu is little bay on the
east coast. n few miles south of Il
prominent cape, which juts out to the
northeast ard might easily be mis-
taken for the northeastern extremity
of the North island. During May and
June the antarctic whale migrates
north into warmer waters, and it seems
probable that there Is some set of cur
rents around the headland Of Wanga-
mumu which deceivcs him into seek
ing passage to the Tasman sea by
boring into the shore at that point.
Whatever may be the cause, the fact
is that schools of whales hug the shore
and pass very close to great iuttinG
rock Mt Wangamumu.
Straight ont into the sea- from the
point of rocks Is stretched the whale
net, made of three-qunrter inch wire
rope In six foot mesh, each mesh be-
ing formed of separate sections of rope
attached to iron corner rings. taking
the places of knots. The top edge of
the net Is held close to the surface by
barrels serving as buoys. y whale
cruising along the shore gets his head
through mesh, and instead of at
tempting to back out he rushas for
ward and entangles himself hopelessly
In the net. One of my photographs
shows n whale rushing into the net
and dragging the shoreward buoy
through the water with much commo-
ton. Close to the shore can be seen
the disturbance of the surface caused
by the dragging under of the shore end
of the upper wire rope.
From lookout station on the top of
the headland watcher signals the ap-
proach of whales, and the boats then
put off and lie in walt An entangled
whale carries away the, net with his
rush, but the great weight of the wire
rope and the drag of a long line of
buoys impede him, and instead Of hold
ing out to sea and going away at great
speed with the whole outfit he thrashes
about and soon gets fins and flukes en-
tangled. when the boat approaches and
the whalers finish the business with
harpoon and lance, as in the old days
