POINT TO CAMPBELL.

Congressman Philip Pitt Campbell is
running for recollection as a stand pat
ter, but some of his constituents are
making a different kind of a patter.
Probably the leading Republican paper
Of Mr.. CampbelPs district is the ParA
sons Sun, and the Sun takes issue with
Mr.. Campbell and takes it hard.
THE time has come" says the sun,
when Industrial changes have made
imperative an alteration of the tariff
schedules, leaving the principle of pro-
lection undisturbed. but removing the
prohibitive and oppressive features of
that measure. The Kansas Republican
voter believes that the tariff schedule
should be revised and that revision
should be made at the very earliest
possible moment and this is one of the
imperative duties of the next session of
congress. The Kansas voter can not
reconcile the fact that the steel trust
is asking his government seven dollars
more per ton for steel rails for Panama
work than the monopoly is asking for
the same commodity abroad. with the
contention of the makers and Mr..
Campbell and other stand patters' that
no fault is to be found with the relation
between existing tariff schedules and
the present trade conditions. It is said
that Elgin watches made in America
can be bought third cheaper in Eng
land than here. The statement puzzles
the Kansas voter. The Kansas voter
further does not understand why he
should vote to maintain a high tariff
against lumber and then pay a tribute
of two dollars thousand for that tariff
when the marketable quantity Of
American lumber is no longer ade-
quate. Neither can the Kansas voter
understand why, out of his own pocket
he should be compelled to maintain a
prohibitive tariff that compels him to
pay twenty-five per cent in advance of
the former cost for his harvesting ma
ehinery.
Perhaps Mr.. Campbell and other
stand patters' can explain these things.
but the fact remains that these are
conditions which exist. and the Kansas
voter demands that the man who rep
resents him in congress shall declare
for policy that shall protect him
against the high prices of monopolies
and combines as well as protect the
manufacturer, and this can only be
done by revision Of the present tariff
schedules. Kansas is demanding that
its delegation in congress. not only in
the lower but the upper house. shall be
for an immediate revision Of the tarifF,

COST OF LAW ENFORCEMENT.


There is a controversy down in Cow
ley county as to how much it costs a
county in dollars and cents to enforce
the prohibitory law. The opponents of
the law assert that the court costs Of
the past two years on liquor cases in
that county amounted to something
between $4,000 and $4,000. The
clerk of the district court recently
figured out these cases. and as given
by the Winfield Courier, they amount
to $4379.S5. OF this amount, s393.79
has been paid by the defendants.
To offset the balance of a little less
than $4,000. 5000 in fines have been
paid and three jointists with fines and
costs aggregating S1,4S6.10. are in jail
and the county has liens against real
estate involved. so this amount is in
sured. Other cases involving fines OF
1900 and costs of $4,000 have been
appealed to the supreme court, and
these costs are protected by ample
bonds.
If the supreme court afrms these
convictions the county will not only
have made the jointists pay the cost
of enforcing the law, but it will have
collected over $4,000 in fines from
them besides. If. however. the county
should lose all of these cases it will be
behind financially on these special
cases.
1t is usually understood, however.
that the enforcement of law costs
money. It costs heavily to catch and
convict a thief or a murderer. There
is no doubt also, that the suppression
Of joints lessons other crimes and
saves the cost of furnishing other
criminals

There are two propositions involved
in railroad freight rates as an issue in
Kansas. one is, do the railroads make
too much money in general? The
other is. are the rates that are charged

other states-in other words, is Kansas
Disseminated against2
AS to the first of these propositions.
there may be considerable argument,
and the question viii finally have to be
adjudicated by some tribunal that can
go into the intricate problems of valu-
atoms and fair profits.
On the other question there can be
little argument. Some rates in Kansas
may be fair. but others are decidedly
unfair when compared to rates else
where. The grain rate is a conspicu-
Gus example of this. Another glazing
Instance of unfairness is this, given by
J. L. Bristow:
THE rate on tea. that is imported
from China and Japan, from the ship
ping point in the Orient to Kansas
City, is $3.50 per hundred. The rate
from the same points in the far east to
Salina is S2.06, or the Kansas City rate
of $3.50 plus Sc cents, the less than
carload local rate from Kansas City
back to Sal1na, though the car OF tea
Is switched at Salina and never goes
to Kansas City. When complaint was
made to Mr.. Stubs of Chicago, who
is traffic manager of the Hartman
lines, he said that the west was rich
this year and could afford to pay the
increased rate. That was his justihca-
ton for this gross discrimination and
unjust tax levied on the people of IN
terror Kansas. The rate for years has
been the same to Salina as to Kansas
City and other Mississippi valley
points. The additional Sc cents has
been added within the last month
OF course this is an interstate rate
and can not be directly regulated by
the state railroad board. In Iowa and
Texas. however, the state railroad
commissioners ind ways to bring the
railroads to time on such matters. VIII
Kansas ever have such railroad
board?
