NO BENsoN- Va TTLEs TIE UP

The WOrld-Herald is endeavoring at
the eleventh hour to prejudice Benson
by prOciaiming that there is a Benson
Wattles tieup, and that the election of
Benson to be mayor means the sup
port of Benson and the Fontanelles for
a delegation to the republican state
convention for G. w. Wattles for SEN
ator.
While this sounds plausible enough, II
does not square with the declarations
made by Mr.. Benson. Mr.. Benson has
declared that If he is elected mayor
there will be no factional politics in
the city hail. He has pledged his word
that as mayor he will see to 1t that the
influence of his administration is not to
be used for or against any republican
candidate for senator. He insists that
while he does not control or claim to
control the Fontanelles, the Fontanelles
will not control him. He has made
these declarations and pledges of bis
own volition and his word ought to be
good.
No republican, therefore. should allow
himself to be stampeded by the World
Herald's story Of a Benson Wattles
tieup.

DIAMOND IMPORTS GROW.
ecord-Breaking Year for the Sale Of
Precious Stones.

With several weeks to spare the present
year has passed all others in the total val
uation of the precious stones and pearls
brought into the port of New York. Fig
ures compiled Saturday by customs au-
thorities showed that the record of last
year, $37, 49, 1897, the highest up to that
time, has already been passed AS the last
two months of the year are usually heavy
in imports, they are expected to add largely
to the margin. The total for November
and December of last year was above 49,
100000. No other month since statistics
have been kept came up to October's total,
which was s., 035, 81.
Comparisons made by authorities show
how great has been the growth in recent
years of the American demand for foreign
gems, mostly diamonds and pearls. AS
late as 1900 the aggregate valuation OF
these imports at New York was below Sl4. :
OOOCOO. In 1897 the figures were slightly
above 81, 100000. The imports thus far in
1905 are more than $l0000.O00 ahead of
those for the entire year of 1904.
Diamonds now contribute a larger pro-
portion of the total valuation than they did
three or four years ago, say the men who
prepare the statistics. Up to that time
they were about seventy-five per cent in
valuation CT all the gems imported; now
they are about eighty-seven per cent.
Importers say that the tendency of
prices is still upward, because never before
has it been as difficult as 1t is now to OBJ
tain the better grade of stones required for
the buyers in the United States In some
of the European countries. the dealers say,
the people are content with brown stones,
even those with flaws. in texture, but here
the demand is mostly for the white stones
free from bubble OF other blemish.
Reports received recently by importers
indicate that the utmost efforts to increas sc
the output are being made.
Each day the De Beers mines produce
between 5000 and 1000 carats of diamonds,
which are sold in the rough to the London
syndicate at an average price Of $3.50.
now producing about one-half as many
carats Of diamonds as the four mines which
the De Beers company operates.

RATE-MAKING SCHEME.
Plan That is Credited to President
Roosevelt.

A Chicago telegram purporting to give
the Presidents views on rate making says:
President Roosevelt, in his annual message
to Congress next month, will recommend
two amendments to the interstate COM
merce law.
He will propose that the various railway
traffic associations, whose standing before
the law is now extremely dubious, shall be
legalized, and that at the same time these
shall be shorn of most of their power by a
requirement that all rates made by them
must be confirmed by the interstate COM
merce commission.
This would give the commission control
of the initiating of most rates. In addition
to it's present power of changing them
when after formal hearing it finds them
unfair.
The second amendment will be one in
creasing the number of members of the
commission from seven to ten.
The enormous amount of work which has
piled up since the new rate law went into
effect has convinced the President and
members of the commission that it Is not
numerically strong enough Information
regarding these proposed reforms was
brought to Chicago by men who had con-
ferred with the President just before his
departure for Panama.

being made the democratic candidate, as he
undoubtedly would have been had he been

ELECTION LESSONS
FORARER READS WARNING IN
THE RESULT.

A telegram from Cincinnati giving an In
terview with Senator Foraker as to his
view Of the election quotes him as say
ing:
1--WE are to <have a republican House OF
Representatives. with a comfortable ma
jority-as much. in fact. as 1t Is good to
have This will insure such legislation as
the republican party favors, and, in fact,
is a guarantee to the country under which
business conditions will continue prosper
GUS.
I'VE not only have a republican House.
but in general way we have republi-
can victory all along the line, and yet this
general republican success Is attended with
some weak spots that amount to serious
admonition. According to present reports
we have democratic governors for New
Hampshire. Rhode Island and Minnesota,
with scant majorities for. the republican
governors elected in both Iowa and Kansas.
in each Of which states we should nave mao
at least 100000 majority. while IN New
York the defeat of Hearst now seems to be
due to his Objectionable personality and
democratic OBJECTIONS. for. according to the
reports of today, the entire democratic state
ticket with the exception OF Mr. dearst,
has been elected.
"While. therefore, we~have the House OF
REPRESENTATIVES., we nave 1t III COHHcClio1l
with results in other respects that should
advise us that we have reached the halfway
point between 1904 and 1908 with only a
slight margin of advantage. This situa-
ton should not discourage republicans, but
it will encourage democrats. They are al
ready claiming that they have made a
wonderful gain, and so they have. as COM
pared with the results Of 1904, and 1t is
easy for them to think that there Is a
trend Of public sentiment in their favor.
Revolt Against Radicalism.
without stopping to locate the blame for
II. the truth is that the democrats the
country over have more confidence that the
radical political ideas Of Bryan and Hearst
are not unreasonable and indefensible than
they have ever before had since these
men came into public life at any national
election.
''The effect Of this is not only to encour-
age and solidify the great majority of the
democrats but also to attract away from
MS a good many of our followers. For
tunately, we have time enough before the
presidential election to correct all this by
pointing out the radical difference between
the republican policies, which involve moth.
ing more than reasonable regulation, and
the crazy crusade which embraces govern
ment ownership and almost everything else
that Is bad in character and destructive in
purpose.
