icy Of letting the tariff alone. The peo-
pie have declared by their votes, say
these high tariff advocates. that they
want no tariff tinkering.
But there is abundant proof that the
people are not satisfied. The shoe in
terest is but one Of many in which every
body is concerned, but it is a good one
to use for purposes of Illustration. The
New York 'sEvening POST says:-ssAfr.
Perkins of New York, staunch Repub-
lican, combating the idea that the hides
question was local one, affecting only
Massachusetts, recalled that the delega-
tions coming to Washington this year to
ask the removal of the duty included
manufacturers from Rochester, Chicago,
Milwaukee, St. Louis, st. Paul and Min
neaplis besides the Massachusetts, towns.
This is a national issue even as re-
CARDS the location of the industry affect
ed. while it is hard to imagine any busi-
ness move more universally felt than
change in the pricesof shoes" The pub
lie interest in the tariff which affects
the cost of shoes is, of course, general.
and there is a good reason for this. In
letter printed in the Congressional
Record. Gov. Douglas of Massachusetts
said in regard to the effect of the hide
tariff on the price of shoes
'The hide duty adds about seven cents
a pair to the cost of producing the grade
of shoes I manufacture. Also wish to
make it quite plain to the public that.
while an increase of but seven cents in
the cost of manufacture of pair of
$3.50 shoes may seem a small and unim-
portant matter. that amount represents
more than the net profit of the average
manufacturer To put $2,25O,-
600 into the Treasury of the United
States as the result of the duty upon
hides. we put about 100000 of un-
necessary tariff in the hands of the. Beef
and Leather Trusts. This, puts an in
iquitous tax upon the sole leather indus
try of about $100o0,00o, and disables
that industry in its fight for the markets.
of the world
The great capitalists who control the
meat interests of this country are the
ones who are enriched by the tariff on
hides. Protected from foreign compete
ton they make their profit ultimately
out of the people who buy shoes. If the
manufacturer is compelled TO raise
prices by reason of the high cost of his
materials the consumer must stand the
raise. And It is simply ridiculous to say
that the consumer stands it cheerfully
because he is deeply attached to the prin-
ciple of tariff protection.

At the convention Of the National Boot

New York last week it was, given out
that the price Of shoes win have to be
raised in the near future unless the tariff
on hides is reduceds and at a meeting Of
the National Shoe Wholesalers in Boston
a few weeks ago the same statement was
made. says the Rochester Union and

Within few days there will be a
hearing before the Assembly Finance
Committee of the New York Legislature
on the Carpenter bill that is designed to
enable the commission on the Palisades
Interstate Park to extend the reserya-
ton from Piernaont to Stony Point, if
teen miles further north. in order to COM
plete the work of preserving from de-
struction one of the most beautiful
pieces of natural scenery in the East.
This hearing should be attended by all
who are interested in this praiseworthy
object. and their influence should procure
the passage of the bill. says the Newark
DAILY Advertiser"
There is no expense for the State in
volyed in ire enactment of this measure.
The commission has the assurance of all
the money needed for the requirement of
the property necessary to carry out the
project. In fact the only opposition
comes from the auarrymen, who are still
enpa ppd in hla sting and crl1Shinur tho
beautiful cliffs into paving stones. Hook
Mountain is one of the most picturesque
of the remaining promontories on the
western shore Of the Hudson The prop
erty involved is entirely within the State
of New York, but New Jersey, in part
nership with the Empire State in the
preservation of the Palisades, is directly
interested and is in duty bound to give
help in the effort.
After years of labor and at great ex-
pense, practically the entire stretch of
the magnificent cliffs from Fort Lee to
Piermont, was rescued from the vandal
quarrymen. This last point on the north
must be brought within the reservation
to make the task complete.

There should be little difficulty in
ngoving. when the Senate Committee on
Elections gives a hearing on the bills
providing for the expression of popular
choice for United States Senator's, that
the Colby measure is by far better than
that introduced by Senator Hillery. says
the Newark ..Eyening News" Under
the provisions of the Colby bill, 500
voters of any one party could, by peti-
sion, compel the secretary of State TO
order the name of their fayorite eandi-
fate for United Spates Senator printed
upon the ballots to be used at the sue
<eeding election throughout the State.
This method would give the voters of ev-
cry section of New Jersey the opportuni-
~ to express his choice for the candi-
dates so nominated. and the canvass of
the returns would make evident the exact
Statewide popularity of each of the can
fidates.
The Hillery bill, if enacted into law,
s~ould not necessar.ly accomplish such
desirable result 1t provides that 100
voters of amy party ia any county can
xle petition compelling the county c.erk
% place en- ibe ballots to be used at the
snsuing primary election the name of
sheir choice for United States Senator
In other words, It would be possible for
any number Of individuals. with Ger
@reening ambition. in every one of the
AWenty-one counties Of the State. by ap-
Dealing to 100 friends, to force the plac-
ing of their names on the ballots in their
counties. and the outcome of the prima
Pies would be no indication whatever OF
1he desires Of the people of the State a,
large For instance, there might be
hwenty-one different candidates to receive
khe recognition of the majority of voters
hair nd III, ~
De absolutely no method by which the
Legislature could ascertain from the re-
furns the real wishes of the people With
twenty-one favorite sons up for consider
btion, the lawmakers would, of course,
consider themselves absolved from re-
HponsbiIity to their constituents and
Nould continue the present practice of
slecting Senators to suit themselves.
1t would, of course, be possible, under
he Hillery bill, TO file petitions for a
eertain candidate in every county in the
State, but it would be a more compli-
sated and a more expensive matter than
khe method provided by the Colby meas
bre. In addition, even though such a
fourse was followed, it might be made
neffeetive by the placing in nomination
~ ''favorite sons in the counties, who
lad absolutely no hope of being chosen.
but who would desire the distinction Of
being honored at home. Such a compli-
kation could not occur under the terms
Dc the Colby bill which is eminently fair
bnd is meant to accomplish results The
Hihery measure. on the other hand,
bears the earmarks of being simply an
Dttempt to deceive the people into believ-
hg that they are to be given an oppor-

ftorial candidates, while making abso-
