The interest in small boats is
growing in this part Of the world
and the number is rapidly mul
tiplying. There was a time, not
long in the past, when the power
boat for pleasure purposes was a
rarity. Those who made the
first ventures in this direction
found the sport devoid of that en-
livening enfluence brought about
by a spirit of rivalry or competi'
ton for points of merit in individu-
al boats. The lack Of this spirit
usually caused a decadence of in.
terest and a sale Of the craft.
Conditions are now changing ra-
pidly and there ia the pro
mise that the waters Of thispart
of the world will be alive with
pleasure boats by the opening of
tho next season. The latest news
coming to ns is that Mr.. L. T..
Reynoud is building very pretty
boat. The hull IL Is feet, Z inches
over all in lelgth by beam Of SO
inches. The equipment for power
will comprise a gasoline engine
Of two cylinders, or a double en-.
CINE, developing approximately
four horse power. The boat will
be ready for launching between
the LIST and 10th of October. In
this instance Mr.. Reynaud is build
ing his own engine tor his boat
SO that both boat aud engine will
be the product Of New Iberia skill
and workmanship.
We also learn that Mr.. Willie
Saxon has similar boat well under
way and when launched will add
a new interest to boating on The
Ceche.

NOT A UNIVERSAL DEMAND
Statement That Western Republicans
Are Clamoring for Tariff Re
form Is Incorrect.

A few Republican and many Demo
cratic correspondents at Washington
are telling their papers that the Re-
publican party will suffer in the west
in the congressional election of 1906
on account of its attitude on the tar
if and on meat inspection. They
say there Is a powerful sentiment in
Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois and other
western states In favor of a revision
of the tariff and as the Republican
party of the nation is opposed to tar
If changes of any sort at this time,
they reason that the patty will lose
votes throughout all the region.
Meat inspection, they declare, Is
dealing a heavy blow to the cattle
and hog raisers, and, as the Republic
an congress and the Republican ad-
ministration pushed a measure for
meat inspection, the Republicans are
sure to be hit hard in all the west
ern states in the contest of 1906.
These prophets are astray. The
tariff revision sentiment which they
imagine they see in the west is con-
fined to very few spots. and Is not
very pronounced even in those spots
Gov. Cummins, of Iowa, is a reviser
but II Is not altogether certain that
the Republicans of his state back him
in his demand. Secretary Shaw, who
probably represents pretty large ell
ement Of the Iowa Republicans, Is
against revision at this time. So is
Senator Allison, who also stands fol
good many Republicans in that
state. Gov. Cummins is making o
canvass on the revision issue now
and although he claims to be fal
ahead of Perkins, his rival, for the
governorship candidacy, it is not en-
tirely certain that he is correct
Perkins friends are also making
claims, and these do not agree with
those of the governor. But even II
Cummins should carry the state on
that issue. it would not necessarily
indicate that the west was on his
side. There are a good many states
in the west, and there has not been
any marked demonstration in favor
of tariff revision among the Repub
licans In any of them except in Iowa
and Wisconsin. Those are important
states, but they do not dictate the
policy of the national Republican
party. Moreover, the Republicans
will carry both Of them on the con
gressional vote this year.-St. Louis

A Prediction.

The views of practical business
man and large Industrial producer,
Of Providence, as expressed in a let
ter to the American Economist, are
worthy of attention:
ut is essential to leave the tariff
absolutely alone.
"It can do no harm, and it is do.
ing good every day.
Il stated before the ways and
means committee in 1897 that we
we're then the largest agricultural
nation. That IL the Dingley tariff
would remain in force for 25 years
we would be the largest manufac.
turing and money nation in the world
In manufacturing iron and steel and
some other items we are to-day.
IF the present tariff IL left abso-
lutely alone for 10 years more we will
be the largest In all these depart
ments, as I predicted"
Nine of the 25 years have passed.
and the prediction has been practi'
caliy verified. Under the operation
of a protective tariff the United
States leads the world:
In manufactures.
In agriculture.
In gross wealth and per capita
wealth.
In internal and external trade. 2
In the production Of coal, iron ore
and pig iron.
