Republican Inconsistency.

The Republican convention Of Cali
fornia. among other planks in the plat
form adopted, urged tariff revision. "to
allow the admission duty free Of build
ing material at San Francisco for three
years" The Republican majority in
congress refused to report the bills for
that purpose introduced by Senator
Newlands and other Democrats, al
though urged to do so by the Demo
Gratis. Congressman Gillette, whom the
California Republicans have nominal
ed for governor, was opposed to tink-
erlng with the tariff even to relieve
the suffering Of the people whom he Is
now asking to vote for him. Whether
the voters of California Will indorse n
platform that declares for n thing
and a candidate for governor who de'
clared against it will require the votes

r A UPON VIRTUE.
Communicating Influences That Sur
round the President.

The remedy of President Hadley Of
Yale for the political and other ras-
calities Of the present day is to ostra-
else the eminent perpetrators. Presi-
dent Roosevelt evidently believes in
the old plan of consorting with the
sinners and thus engendering in them
perhaps fruits meet for repentance. Or
Is 1t the exigencies of the G. 0. p.
that require the president to invite
Boss Penrose to Oyster Bay to consult
about how to beat the Lincoln Repub-
lican reformers, and Congressman Lit
tauer. who escaped prosecution for the
army glove contract frauds by virtue
of the statute of limitations, on the
fractional fight in New York; and Cor
telyou, chairman of the Republican ma
tional committee, who vas receiver Of
the stolen funds from the policy hold
ers of the life insurance companies and
who used the money to debauch the
voters III the doubtful states, whose
aid in again raising a campaign fund
Is no doubt considered indispensable;
and Paul Morton, the self convicted re-
batter who was too warm a proposition
to keep in the cabinet, but his advice
about railroad and insurance cOntribu,
tons may be necessary.
Perhaps constant association with
the president will do more for these
| sinners than to %ostracise them on the
Hadley plan, but the question is, Can
the great virtues of President Roose.
welt forever withstand these and like
communicating influences? TO consort
all the winter with Republican con
gressnen would make most of us
quake. but that strain upon virtue, to
be followed during the recess by the
communicating influences described,
would be too much for most patriots.

Protection and Idleness.

The window glass manufacturers are
loaded, according to the New York
Journal of Commerce, with 100000
boxes Of glass, a third Of a years sup
ply, which they have decided to work
off at the present market prices before
opening up the factories again" The
men have been idle almost a year and
want to work. This shows that ultra
protectionism does not protect even the
workers in this tariff protected In
dustry, and every one has to pay dou-
bic price for glass because the tariff
prevents competition and thus keeps
the price unreasonable. The workmen
are idle more than half the time under
this system and yet the Republicans
stand pat,

CURIOUS PARTISAN ADVICE,
shaw Tries to Induce Young Men to
Support Rotten Policies.

'"Hpoft Itottcn fOl1Cle8.
AS the star Republican %spellbinder
secretary Shaw is, as Artemus Ward
would say, "an amusin' cuss." The
trouble with Shaw is that his partisan
philosophy Is out of gear and will not
stand the test of application to particu-
iaf cases. Shaw in a speech at st.
Louis SAID, Il advise young men to
vote FOR parties and not men, for oar
Ties stand for principles and men do
not always do So" But If the party is
corrupt and it's principles rotten what
ID the young man to do then? And as
unfortunately the Republican machine
polltlclans in st. Louis and nearly ev-
eryWhere else are under a cloud and
Republican reformers are declaring
That Republican politicians are rotten
TO the core and in many states have
proved that contention what would
Shaw advise his young Republican
friends to do under such circum-
stances?
Does he advise the young Republic
ans of Iowa to vote the whole Repub-
l1can ticket or would he say if his ad-
vice could be rendered privately,
vote the Republican ticket, but
scratch Cummins?"
All the corrupt rings advise the
young voters to support the whole tick
ct and pay no attention to the charac-
ter or corrupt doings Of the leaders or
candidates.
The Republican party in Philadelphia
and Pennsylvania, in New Jersey, in
New Hampshire, In New York and
other states will forever be wallowing
In the mire of Penroseism, of Dryden
corruption, of Gallinger and Boston
and Maine railroad domination and of
most disreputable machine politics in
the Empire State if Shaw's advice
We're followed. The Republican party
has come to a sorry plight even with
the utmost that the reformers in its
ranks can do, but when its young and
enthusiastic voters are advised to shut
their eyes and vote blindly for all the
rascals and stand pat policies and all
the foolish old schemers of the Shaw
type who are labeled Republican no
wonder the young men balk. Shaw's
advice would not only make the party
q stencil in the nostrils of decent PEG.
pie, but a political cadaver that every
n would be anxious to bury.
The Democracy is different from Re-
publicanism. The independence of the
young Democrat and his attraction to
the honest and able leaders of the
party have been and will forever be
the salvation of the party Of the peo-
pie. The independence Of Democrats
makes platforms that will stand pop
ular approval and candidates that will
bear the investigation that is the sole
safeguard of the voters. The Democ-
racy invites the young voter to study
the former and present policies of the
party, to probe the character of its
candidates and aid in the nomination
Of able and honest ones and vote &C.
cordingly.

to-day that the Governments case was
In excellent shape and that the witnesses
needed we're already under subpoena.
Acknowledgement Moody did not care to
be quoted beyond his prepared statement,
but he emphasized the fact that the case
against these railways and the American
Sugar Refining Company shows more
clearly the baneful effects Of rebates than
any case that has ever been brought to the
attention Of the Government.
Every trunk line leading out Of New York
is to be made a defendant with the sugar
trust. 1t was said to-day, however, that
the reports Of prospective convictions OF
very high officials we're exaggerated. The
actual offences in cases Of rebate, 1t was
added, are usually committed by lesser
But there will be no playing Of favorites
On the one hand, and no persecution Of
individuals on the other, said q high oficer
Of the Department Of Justice.
The same officer said that In the present
instance the prosecution Of the railroads
would prove a blessing to them. The
railroads, he said, were actually not strong
enough to cope with the sugar r%eflners;
that is, when demands were made, they
were Obliged to aocede to them or lose q
this case as In many. others-the guilty
carrier.
The prosecution about to be instituted
by the Government is regarded as q notable
one from the fact that the worst effects
Of the rebate practice appear In this case.
In certain instances the sugar r~ef1ners, 1t Ia
declared, did not ask for rebates, but were
willing to pay the regular published tariff
simply adding the cost Of the freight to
