official campaign book on page 147, that
the price of wheat was IL or 20 cents
higher on the American side of the line
than in Manitoba, and reads a long
lecture TO prove that the tariff on
wheat protects the American farmer.
As the price of wheat everywhere
has been declining in consequence of
worldwide good crops, while the tariff
protected products of the trusts have
been advancing in price, so that Brad
street reports for October that the cost
of living has advanced nearly 30 per
cent since 1897, the year the present
Republican tariff law was enacted. So
the American farmer is selling his
wheat and other products at the
worlds prices, in free competition with
other countries having a surplus to dis
pose of, and is purchasing all that he
needs to buy at the eXorbitant price
the trusts are enabled to obtain
through tariff protection. Thus the
old demand Of the farmers that they
be allowed to buy in the cheapest mar
ket and sell their products in the dear
est markets has been reversed, TO their
evident and great disadvantage. by the
Republican system of protectionism.

|LIPTON'S LAST WORDS
 ARE ABOUT CHALLENGE

Will De Forwarded in Good Season--
 Fife VIII be the Designer-May
 Build Two Boats in Event of Which
 MyIne Will Design 0ne-Cha1ienger
 will he Cutter Rigged-WilI Stick to
 Eighty to Ninety Foot Boat.
 New York, Nov. 16.-After bidding farewell to many of his friends at the Waldorf Astoria, Sir Thomas Lipton boarded the steamer Carmania tonight to sail tomorrow for England. Before the baronet boarded the ship he said that he had practically made up his mind to issue another challenge for the Americas s cup.
 T came here this tine,' Sir Thomas said, with one purpose in view-that was to pave the way, if possible, for an- other challenge to the New York Yacht club for the cup and shall so home with the feeling that my visit has not been a failure
 There is the greatest possibility that l shall challenge for the cup next year, the race to take place in 190S The challenge will be under the new rules of measurement of the New York Yacht club. I shall not at this time name the month when the challenge will be sent, but it will be forwarded in good season. The New York Yacht club has treated me with the greatest cour- tesy, and I shall be careful not to do anything that will embarrass it.
 Fife will design the challenger. Still l may decide to build two boats, and if I do Mylne will plan the second. The boats will be tried in English wa ters, and the fastest selected as the 1 challenging craft
 As to the type and size of the chal- lenger, the boat will be cutter rigged. Since I have been here some persons have endeayored to impress me with an idea that a seventy-footer would be a better size to challenge with but I like the larger boat, and will stick to the eighty to ninety foot boat.
 The new rule of measurement will produce a rational type of boat, and that will be a great deal gained. With any kind of success with my designers, I fancy the challenging and defending yachts of the next match will be closer together in the matter of speed, possi- bly,, than they have been in any of the previous races in which have been 1 interested"
 Colonel Duncan F. D. NeiIl, yachting associate of Sir Thomas, will also sail on the Carmania tomorrow.

 Princeton, Nov. 16.-Princeton is all excitement tonight. The vanguard of the big crowd that will witness to-mor- rows game is coming in on every train The little college town is discarding it's customary sober dress and is taking on a holiday appearance. The orange and black of Princeton and the blue of Yale are being displayed on almost every building. The excitement among the students is at fever heat, and scarcely anything but football is being talked about on the campus. Seldom in the history of the great struggles with Yale have the undergraduate been so hopeful of victory, and certainly no team has ever been more anxious to show hat the confidence of its support CTS has not been misplaced.
 Betting is at a standstill Princeton's packers believe that they are justified in asking even money, both on account of Yale's prestige and the fact that both teams made practically the same score against West Point The mem- bers of the team, with two exceptions, are in splendid condition. Injuries which Penney received in practice re- gently have taken an unexpected turn for the worse, and it was announced tonight that Dowd would relieve E. A. Dillon at quarterback if the latter is injured Captain Herbert Dillon is not likely to last through the game. Daub is his substitute. The rest of the squad are in the pink of condition and ready to put up the fight of their lives. Lar son, the big guard, who was injured just before the Cornell game, has re- covered entirely and has shown re- markable form in recent practice games. He will relieve Stannard in case of injury.
 Coach Roper tonight announced the following lineup for tomorrow: Left end, Mister, left tackle, Herring, left guard, H. L. Dillon; center, Phillips; right guard, stannard; right tackle, Cooney; right end, Hoagland; quarter back, E. A. Dillon; left halfback, Ru- lon- Miller; right halfback, Harlan; full back, Mccormick.
 The Yale lineup as given out here tonight is as follows; Forbes, left end; Paige, left tackle; Brides, left guard; Hockenberger, center; Erwin, right guard; Biglow, right tackle; Alcott, right end; T. Jones, quarterback; Knox, left halfback; Veeder- -Roome, right halfback; Morse (captain), fullback.

HADLEY ON ETHICS OF
 CORPORATE MANAGEMENT
SECOND ADDRESS OF SERIES BE- TORE NEW FORK SCHOOL oR
 EXPLANATORY.

Relations of Corporations to Employees
 and Their Mutual Duties to Public
 Vastly More Complex Than Thirty
 Years Ago--Problem Can be Settled
 by Common Sense and UnseIfishness--+
 Many Leaders of Industry Do Harm ..by Publicly Insisting on an Extreme
 View of Their Legal Rights.
 New York. Nov. 16.-President Had ley of Yale to-day delivered the third of the Kennedy series of lectures in the auditorium of the United Charities building before the New York School of Philanthropy, his subject being the Ethics of Corporate Management" He said in part:
 In the years immediately following the civil war tn ewhole system of American railroad rates was arranged on principles which decently conduct ed store would have scorned to admit into its management. The restraints of competition had been done away with. and the managers did not see the ne- cessity of substituting any other legal or moral restraint in it's stead. In fact, they asserted the constitutional right to be free of all other legal or moral restraints Of course this arbitrary ex- ercise of power provoked a reaction Just when things were at their worst q really great man appeared on the scene in Charles Francis Adams of the Massachusetts railroad commission. He promulgated an idea, essentially ethical in its character, which not only was of great service at the time but has been | the really vital force in all good schemes of corporate regulation ever since. Tn the management of rail- road, the temporary interests of the road and of it's various shippers are oft l en divergent; but the permanent inter- ests of the railroad and the various 1 shippers come very much closer togeth- or than the temporary ones. and can almost be said to coincide. During the comparatively short time that he was at the head of the Massachusetts com mission Mir. Adams did in fact per- suade not only the railroad men of that state, but the railroad men of a great many states to take this view of l the matter, and that by this reca1n- riicndation, made without any authors ity except the authority of common sense, he permanently removed more I abuses in railroad management than all the various state statutes put to- l gether. And when the railroad com missions and other commissions of more recent years disregaring the ex- periences of MT. Adams, have besought over and over again for an increase of their power to make rates, and their power to prosecute offenders, and the power to keep the courts from review ing their acts. I am reminded of the minister in tn county chuch, who said 70 Lord, we pray for power; o, Lord, we pray for power;" until an old dea- con unable to contain himself inter- rupted. "Taint power you lack, young man; it's ideas" The relations of cor porattons to their employees, and the mutual duties of organizations of cap- ital and labor toward the public in making continuous service possible,

The president had his train stopped for the purpose of making personal exanlin- atlon. At this point in the cut the pc. culiar soil conditions have resulted in more or less frequent landsides, and this fact was brought to the president attention. President Roosevelt des- cended from his train and climbed upon one of the steam shovels, taking 6 seat alongside of Engineer Gray, whom he subjected to searching fire of ques. tlons regarding the work. During his conversation. Engineer Gray took the opportunity on behalf of himself and the other engineers to declare that, un- like the railroad engineers, they were not paid for overtime. The president promised to look into the matter. He stayed on the steam shovel for about twenty minutes By this time it was raining hard.
 Preident Roosevelt told Chief Engin- | ger Stevens that he wanted to see all the works in connection with the ex- eavation, even to the temporary laying of tracks. With this in view, he board. 1 ed a work train near Pedro Miguel ant went on to the next point, where steam shovels were at work. Here there was no danger of landslides. The presiden. tial train continued on the regular line | toward Panama. The work of the sec. ond steam shovels was observed, an6 the president made & detour to exam 1 inc the site of the Pedro Miguel lock 1 He shook hands with all the Americans he met while waking over the ground 1 At about 9:25 the president entered 2 deep portion of Culebra cut, his trair going slowly in order that he might ob serve the workings of the drill ma, chimes and shoyels One shovel wal decorated with a sign reading: We vii do our best to help you build it.''
