forgotten the cnagrin that they be-
trayed after the passage Of the VIII
son bill? We set up no claim to in
fallibility, but, bad as excessive pro-
lection upon certain commodities
admittedly is, worse than this is con-
slant tariff tlnkering, and worse
than all is free trade,
Tariff reform should not be invol-
we'd in the heated emotions OF a po-
litical campaign. Economic necessity
rather than sentiment or political
consideration should govern. The
merchant, the manufactures, the
workman, the great public that buy
and the smaller public that sell are
entitled to more rational and in
telligent method of dealing with this
question. II Is business question,
and should be considered from that
standpoint. Politics, however, have
entered into it--rather began with
it-and that Is phase with which
we must deal until congress shall
create q dsinterested tariff COM
mission capable and empowered to
dispose OF questions of schedules
without agltating the country and
filling the minds OF the people with
apprehension.
II 1t is for the benefit of the peo-
pie to change some of the schedules,
as It undoubtedly is where they are
too high or where they are too low
then the changes should be made.
Il. perchance. some of our tariffs are
no longer needed; II. perchance, they
cannot be employed TO extend or
promote our markets abroad, then
should we retain them and stand In
ert, admitting that we have not the
ability or courage to correct abuses
or injustices because OF our fear or
being joggled?

SENATORS WIN OHIO CONTEST

Dayton, o.. Sept. a. The victo-
ry OF Senator Dick in securing re-
election to the craftsmanship Of the
state executive committee, by deci-
sive vote of II to z, was second In
interest in lobby discussion tonight
TO the speech of Senator Foraker to
the convention.
Coming after the address by Tenn
porary Chairman Herrick and given
with all the vim and vigor for which
the senior senator is famous this
speech aroused the delegates to a
high pitch and was the talk of the
city today. Its probable effect on
matters to be decided by the con.
vention tomorrow and the possiblll-
~ of an answer from Congressman
Burton during the morning session
were thoroughly gone over.
The endorsement Of the president
and the two senator's is probable in
the platform.
Congressional elections are al
ways important" said Foraker, but
they are especially and particularly
so this year. They are thus unusual
ly important because this year they
involve not only the political com
plexlon Of the next house, but d.
rectly and Immediately. the question
OF whether or not the American peo-
pie propose in November next to en-
dorse and approve the administra-
ton of Theodore Roosevelt.
president Roosevelt has had
more to do than any other president
ever before had with the legislation
that congress has been enacting.
"rf the people OF Ohio stand for
whatever Theodore Roosevelt stands
for. they will not stand for a tariff
revision this year. For he himself has
determined Il, has spoken il. has pro-
claimed It. not alone as the official
result OF that conference, but in his
celebrated letter to Mr.. Watson. His
idea Is that bur platform IN this
contest should be not promises as to
the future but the performances OF
the past. Let us take an account OF
stock. says he let us hold up to the
people what we have done and let
us find out whether or not they APP
prove OF what we have done"
Foraker referred to the recent
speech of Bryan in which II was de-
clared that there are two issues, tar
IN revision and government owner
ship OF railroads. In answer 10 the
demand for revision. Foraker quoted
Speaker Cannon when he stated in
his speech before the convention
that renominated him in Illinois.
that the Republican party would re-
wise the tariff. not when Bryan or
some other Democrat told us to, but
we would do It when the revision
would do us less harm tnan no revi-
sion would do good That IL the po-
sltion OF the Republican party, said
Foraker.
Hetrick's Speech.
Herrlck's speech which deals
largely and favorably to tariff revi-
sion. in part follows:
The tariff problem Is again TO the
fore II is no longer a question of
advlsabilty OF Its discussion. II is
here and will not down. Let us meet
II. We frankly confess that the pres
ent tariff law is not perfect. No tar

THE ATHENS OAK.

Athens famous old oak tree that
owns itself is to be properly pre-
served. Mr.. George Foster Pea
body has agreed to supply the
funds needed to place a substan-
tial railing about the oak, so that
it may be protected.
There will be four granite posts
planted near it, and from these
will extend chains that will pre-
vent the ancient trunk from being
injured or molested. At some
convenient place on the old land
mark there will be placed bronze
tablet, also to be the gift of Mr..
Peabody, which will tell to future
generations the story of the tree
and how it came to be it's own
owner. Not that there will ever
come time when an Athenian
will not know the full story of the
oak. 1t will be handed down from
generation to generation as long as
there remains vestige of the tree
with the curious history.
The Athens oak has national
reputation. 1t stands ON Finley
street and is enc of the sights of
the town. 1t is said to be the on
ly tree IN the world that owns it.

elms may fall at mans decree, but
this one time pride of the forest,
which stood where Athens now
stands, is safe from such injury or
such a death.
Nearly century ago Colonel W.
III. Jackson, the owner of the land
upon which the tree stands, ex-
ecuted a deed in which he gave
the tree in fee simple to itself.

fell because it did not own itself,
