/ If revision or for a maintenance of
present schedules it behooves him to
vote the Republican ticket this fall.
| The tariff revisiobist can no more
effectively postpone action on the
tariff or more effectively pre,e nt
such action than 10y electlng a Dem
oclatic House. Every man who has
enough reasoning power To under
stand why two and two make four
can readily see that there is no
chance under Heaven that a Repub-
licau Senate would pass a tariff bill
framed 10y Democratic House. And
at the same time 1t is perfectly plain
that Theodore Roosevelt would new
er sign a Democratic tariff measure.
Therefore ii is evident beyond all
question that the best way for tar
If revlslonists % prevent revision
of the tariff would be to elect a
Democratic House.
On the other hand the man who
believes in a perpetuation of our
present good times and of the great
tariff policy of the Republican par
| ty cannot afford to vote the Demo
cratic ticket. He Is too well ac-
quainted with the unsettled condi-
TORS that would result from the
election of a Democratic House.
The country would construe it as
drift of sentiment toward free trade
and the result could be nothing less
than a waning of confidence and a
gradual If not sudden return to pam
icky days ike those the country cx
perienced in 1892. Therefore the
standpatter must stick TO his wise
battle cry, ''let we'll enough alone"
The Democrats sometimes say
that the hard times under the Will
son bill came before the bill went
into effect. That is true in a meas.
ure, but it came from the fact that
the country had lost confidence in
it. Confidence in our national pol
icies is absolutely essential to our
commercial welfare and the moment
Democratic House is elected con.
fidence is sure to be shattered.
1t is up to every voter to ask
himself the question-"Do 1 want
revision of the days of 1882"
And while it is highly desirable
that West Virginia send five Repub-
licans to the House of Representa-
tives Of even more Importance is it
that Senator Elkins be returned.
The tariff on lumber, the tariff on
coal and many other schedules have
done much toward making West
Virginia the great State she is. The
time may come in the next six years
when the vote of the Senator elect
ed by West Virginia indirectly a. a
result Of this falls election will de-
termInc whether these schedules
shall be maintained or not. 1t is a
forcgone conclusion that Senator
Elkins will be the man if the Legis-
lature goes Republican. Likewise
it is q foregonc conclusion that John

RACE ABOVE THE CLOUDS.
Balloonists Ascended Over 5000 Feet
Heat Was Intense.

Pittsfield, Mass, Oct. ga strange
race above the clouds was witnessed
here when Centaur and Lorient, the
two balloniists who remained after
the contest for the Hadley cup had
been declared off. made a race into
the heavens on a heavy wager.
The balloonists ascended over 5000
feet into the air, the heat becoming
so intense that IT was necessary to re-
move all outer clothing.
Lorient outsailed Centaur by three
and half hours, and landed at ia
maica, VT. about II miles from the
starting point. Centaur landed at
Bennington, about 80 miles from the
starting point.
The occupants of the Lorient bal
loon say the mercury reached log de-
grees at one time in the remarkable
ascent above the clouds. The heat
was almost unbearable and for time
the entire crew despaired of living
through the ordeal

Seattle, Oct. 23.-That the state of
Washington has been robbed at the
rate of $4,000 a year by the former
superintendents of the insane asylum
at Steilacoom, is the startling fact
revealed by the investigations of the
new superintendent, DIR. Arthur CAL
houn, who has gone through the books
of the institution.
According to DIR. Calhoun, the re-
port of DR.. McLeish for 1904, super
intendent at that time, shows he drew
35 cents a day to support SO patients
who were not then in the institution.
The report of DR.. Parks for 1903 re-
veals similar facts.
In the administration of DR.. Dod-
dard for six years previous to 1903,
discrepancies of numerous patients
have been discovered. Many of these
have continued up to the present time,
and the superintendents have been
regularly drawing the allowance Of
35 cents day for caring for patients
who died years ago or had been dis
charged from the asylum.
The large discrepancy of 50 pa
Gates that DIR. McI4eish drew from the
state 95 cents day for each of the
so inmates whom he includes in his
report, but who were not at the asy-
lum at that time. The total amount
for the year 1904 can be found by
multiplying 35 by 80, and multiply
ing the product by S65. The total is
s10,475.50..
In 1903 the discrepancy is almost
as great. and not in the past six years
has there been a report that tallies
with the number of patients who were
really in the institution at the time.
DR.. Calhoun, who has made this dis
covery among numerous others of
similar nature in going over the books
when interviewed yesterday was loath
to admit that the money was obtained
fraudulently by the former superin-
tendents, or used dishonesty, but said
that the discrepancy was probably due
to an error in the report.

admitted that he received notice from
the road that the low rate would be
abolished and bought advantageously.
He testified that when he learned that
the rates had been raised he went
on to the floor Of the Chicago ex-
change and sold 100000 bushels of
wheat to Armour. An hour later a
notice was posted of a raise in rates.

Chicago, oct. Railroads which
have been depending upon other lines
TO furnish their freight car equip

result of the meeting of the Ameri-
can Railroad association. which
opened here today with nearly every
railway In the country represented
For many years numerous less i'm

gardless of the demands OF their own
ers. These roads are termed "leeches"
In the railroad vernacular, and a de-
termined effort is to be made at the
present meeting to pry them loose
from their graft
As the rules regulating the matter
now stand. each road using the freight
cars OF another line is charged only
25 cents a day during the first 80
days. 1t has been shown that the
average earning capacity of a freight
car In regular use Is more than "a a
day, hence the small charge now
made is not only improbable for the
roads owning the cars, but is insuffi-
cient to hasten the return of cars by
the smaller roads which find II cheap

lines rather than purchase equipment
OF their own.
Just what action will be taken to
check the 'leeches" is not yet decided,
but the representatives of enough
roads have signified themselves as
favoring more stringent rules to guar
antee their adoption.

TEUTSCH HOME
IS BURCLAR|zED
INTRUDERS SUCCEEDED IN
GETTING A FEW DOLLARS.
Burglars Enter Sleeping Room and
Ransack Mr.. Teutsch's Pockets
Containing Thirty Cents-A Purse,
However. Was Relieved of Contents
Theft Was Discovered This Morn
ing-Nothing Else Taken.

Another bold bad burglar was
loose IN the city last night and Lee
Teutschs residence on West Court
street was the scene of his opera
tons. He entered the place through
pantry window and after ransack-
ing the house and taking a pair of
trousers from beside Mr.. Teutsch's bed
he departed without disturbing the
household.
The first intimation anyone had of
the burglary was when Mr.. Teutsch
arose this morning and sought his
wearing apparel. He found his trous-
ers missing and he falsely accused his
wife of the theft. moment later the
missing grament was found upon the
kitchen floor and it became plain that
a burglar had been in the house dur
ing the night. There was but 80 cents
in his trousers pockets and this Mr..
Teutsch found undisturbed. Nor were
his keys taken. However, the intrud-
er was not so charitable regarding
Mrs. Teutsch, for the latter's purse
which lay on a dresser, was found to
have been robbed Of several dollars
in silver.
Mr.. Teutsch had left his coat and
vest hanging over chair in the lower
story of the house and the garments
had evidently been inspected for drops
of tallow from a candle were found
upon them this morning. An Ingersol
watch in a pocket of the vest was not
taken.
That the burglar made his way
about the house by means of a light
ed candle is believed from the fact
that tallow was dropped at various
places about the house.
This forenoon Mr.. Teutsch express
ed much satisfaction over the work
of his midnight visitor, though he re-
GREETED that the job was so unprofit- |
able from a hurglaristic standpoint |

chant during the forenoon. "But | |

wake me up for | would not have
known he was there for s10."
