labor. He does not compete with goods

Judging from all appearances. and is

= One Of the standing arguments made
TO American working men by the advo-
Gates OF a protective tariff is that 1t
protects them against the f"pauper
labor of Europe" 1t is specious
argument which lacks the essential
element of truth. The actual bene-
ficiaries of the tariff care nothing
for the working people further than
Is deceive them and retain their ser
fvices. The great corporation which
docs the manufacturing is not concern
ed about those who do the mechanical
work in the shops, but are intent only
on the amount of work and on the
profits they get from 1t. and they are
enabled to make their large profits
because the tariff protects them
against foreign competition. II they

are paid in Europe that is only an in

ter Of favor or justice to the workers
hut because they can thus get better
work done and more of 1t, and thereby
increase their own emoluments
There Is more rot and poppy cock
used by the tariff special pleaders than
by any other class of wind TANNERS
in all the land. They have the art Of
making their side Of the case look
almost divinely holy, and the unfor-
tunate feature of 1t is that they can
haecefve the voters so easily. If those
who do the work of the country, the

Thoroughly on all economic subjects
they would be much less willing to
keen in power the men who enrich
themselves at the expense of the peo-
'ple.

The London Spectators suggestion
that Leonard Wood be recalled from
the Philippines to take command again
in Cuba does not escape the attention
OF The New York Sun. which keeps
the noted military man in memory all
the while. The Sun says:
Unfortunately, or otherwise, General
Wood Is now beyond the reach Of this
emergency. In far-off Luzon he counts
the cadavers OF the converted Filipinos
and reckOns his account as a prophet of
American civilization. He is not imme-
diately available. But looking back
over the record OF American benevo-
lent occupation of Cuba, and keeping
special count OF the part enacted by
Leonard Wood in that interesting
tmelodrama, we feel moved to say that
possibly the present intervention will
prosper reasonably well even without
the aid and direction of General Leon
ard Wood. He served very useful
purpose at Havana. we can we'll be-
lieve, for he showed as with a great
white light of Illustration exactly what
we should not do a second time. Time
has erased the more prominent and ag-
gressive features of the episode.

MISTREATING PRISONERS.

Judge Nathan IN mis- charge TO the
Grand Jury of Colbert county last
Monday said:
That it had come within his hear
ing that police officers sometimes go
beyond the law and abuse and assault
men in their charge as prisoners. He
mentioned the fact that an officer VINO
assaults, or abuses, a prisoner Is sub
ject to Indictment; that an officer Is al
lowed to overcome resistance by sum-
moning to his aid the necessary help.
That any officer who beats d prisoner
should be indicted for assault and bat
terry. That the practice of police shoot
ing at prisoners is becoming a men,
ace.
The courts are organized for the pro-
lection of the people; the soficers
should be taught that 1t Is violation
of law to shoot at, or abuse a prisoner.
This warning should be needed as 1t
was not given in any spirit of enmity.
but rather as an aid to the officers so
that they would not place themselves
in a position subject to indictment.
Respect for the law Is the foundation
for all good governments and this can
only be had by fair and proper en-
forcement of the laws.

1t is real pleasant reading when we
find a Republican newspaper throw
ing off thegag and saying things right
out plain. Most of them are so effect
ually muzzled that they can only say
what the party leaders expect of them,
however, much 1t may strain them to
hold down their real sentiments. but
occasionally one breaks away. as in
this from The Emporia (Kan.) Gazette:

enough to make it a town. But there
are other things. and many of them.

eral hundred men here, and this Is
the headquarters, and will be all the
time, for the lum bermen, and for the
train crews working on the Cloudcroft
road. Then AIamogordo has lots Of
institutions that employ numbers of
people. and altogether, the future
looks very bright
1t is true that the railroad is re-
moving the shops and roundhouse

away, other institutions are coming.
