Editorial Notes.

1t does seem rather ungracious to charge
Sir Thomas Upton large tariff tax on the
gold cup he has presented to the New York
Yacht Club, as prize for the yachts to race
for.
According to the statisticians the Demo
Gratis are certain to win in 81 Congressional
districts that are now represented by Repub'
licans and have more than an even chance of
capturing the 20 other districts necessary for
a majority. If those independent and Re-
publican voters, who want the trust fortering
tariff revised, vote as they talk, the stand
patters will hardly have leg to stand on.
A good many men who voted for Mr..
Roosevelt have not yet paid their 81 assess
ment, or the campaign fund would have over
Sc, OOO, 900, which is just about what the trusts
and insurance companies put up in 1904, for
the Roosevelt campaign.
President Roosevelt is partisan first, last
and all the time, and there are good many
Republican Representatives and Senators who
are trying to make the voters believe that the
happiness of Mr.. Roosevelt depends on their
reelection, whom he had just as soon see de-
feated, if enough others were elected to make
Republican quorum.
Wheat is ten cents bushel lower in price
than last year, although it is still protected by
the tariff rate of % cents bushel. The price
of all the farmers are buying is however at
the top notch and in fact the price of all trust
products protected by the tariff, is higher this
year than last Puzzle, why do some farmers
support the Republican tariff-trust policy that
plumbers them.
The Army scandal in the Philippines, which
is now being investigated, shows that army
officers and civilians have made it practice
to have their furniture made and repaired at
the government shops. Many officials are
involved and it is said there is bill of So, 900
against Gen. Corbin. When will the scandals
under this Administration have an end and
not one.half has been told yet, and perhaps,
never will, unless Democratic Congress is
elected and investigates all the departments.
There would never have been any Trust
magnates, if Republican laws had not tostered
them. Therefore change the laws instead of
standing pat as the Republicans declare is
their intention. The issue is so plain that
"way .faring man though fool cannot err
therein"
j. Edward Addicks, of Delaware, or some
where, shows his appreciation oftrying to fool
the people about tainted campaign funds by
sending in his dollar like a real reformer

A Tariff Dilemma.

In Iowa the Republican factions are dis
cussing the question whether the party has
"cut loose from the President by nomin a.
ting Cummins, who is not stand patter. 1t
does seem rather unfortunate for the Cum Minis
factions to appear in that light, but they will
have to lay the blame on President Roosevelt
for deserving them and now being on the
wrong side of the tariff issue. But much
more important matter for the voters of Iowa
to discover is how the Republican candidates
for Congress stand on the tariff issue. Are
they pledged to ''stand pat" and refuse to
revise the tariff ?-that is, carry out the agree
ment made between President Roosevelt and
Cannon to run stand pat campaign. Or do
any, or all, of those candidates for Congress
stand with Gov. Cummins who has been for
tariff revision? 1t would seem that the Re-
publican voters of Iowa who believe that the
tariff shelters trusts will have to use great
discrimination when they vote, and heed to
question their candidates for Congress as to
Just what they stand on the tariff issue. 10
vote straight Republican ticket for Congress
man would be an endorsement of the "Stand
Pat" agreement and be looked upon as a
command to put off tariff revision for an IN
definite period.

Price of Farm Products Falling.

The farmer who votes the Republican ticket
is scratching his head and thinking seriously
that something is wrong with the protective
tariff. He finds the price of wheat In the
Chicago market has fallen II cents a bushel
in less than six weeks, he also finds the price
of cotton, corn and oats falling and that all he
buys still continues at top prices. He has
been told by the Republican leaders and the
Republican newspapers that protectionism Is
the salvation of the farmer, because it increas-
es the home market for his products and keeps
up prices and therefore produces prosperity
for the farmer as we'll as the protected trusts.
As long as the wheat crop was only moder.
ately good one in the United States, with short
crops abroad, protectionism seemed to work
out as the stand. patters said it would. But
now comes bumper crop OF wheat weighing
over 60 pounds to the bushel and good pros
poets for crops abroad and down comes the
price to the export basis-that is the price the
Liverpool market, when all other countries
compete, is willing to pay-and the beautiful
theory of protection is found lacking The
farmer finds the tariff on wheat of rs cents
bushel is a delusion and snare, for OF course
no wheat is imported when we raise more than
can be consumed here and have to hunt a
foreign market for the surplus.
1t will be rather awkward for Speaker Can
non, and the other Republican speakers. in
the campaign to elect Congress, to explain
to the farmers how the tariff protects them
when they have to sell in the cheapest market
and buy in the dearest. There should be no
such trouble in explaining why all the farmer
buys has increased on the average 48 per cent.
because the Republican speakers can point
with pride to the prosperity of the trusts and
combines who are protected by the tariff.
1t is evident that these comparatively few pro.
tected interests are of more consequence to
the Republican managers, who declare they
will stand pat on the tariff, than the great
agricultural interests that are the chief basis
of all the wealth of the United States.
