ThesPresident has announced
his intention to have the tariff
removed from white paper and
the products that enter into its
manufacture. This is not tariff
for revenue purposes, the old
Democratic constitution, but alb
solute free-trade. We want the
tariff lifted, but if the placing Of
paper and the products of which
it is made on the free list brings
relief to publisher why not re-
move it from other articles that
affect other lines of industry?
If a tax on paper is wrong and
injurious to the people, a tax on
hides, horns and hoofs is also
injurious. Down with the rob-
Der tariff will be the campaign
cry nextsyear and it will win.

Hon. w. j. : Bryan announces
that he is..not seeking the Dem
ocratic nomination for President,
but if the7 party wants him to
again lead:the fight he is ready
ready to lead, ready to work at
the wheel. We know not what
course others may pursue, but as
for us, we aresnot inclined to go
off after the unknown. This
country hassssnever had Bryan's
peer, and we would rather see
him in the lead than any other
man in all the country. There
is an effort icing made to dis
cover some Democrat to displace
him as a leader, but up to date
no agreement has been reached,
and if thesgreat bulk of DEM
ocrats could beEheard, Mr.. Bryan
will again stand at the head of
our ticket. The main reason ad-
vanced against him, is that he
has twice,been defeated, and can
not win the.third time. Such an
argument is not worth consider
ing. In'his first race he was a
victim of every mean and disrep-
utable method that intellect and
money could devise. In the sec
ond it tookssthe combined power
of solid Republican party and
the corporate wealth of the coun-
try to encompass his defeat. He
is a stronger man now than in
1895 or in 1900, because he is
better known, and more thor
oughly understood. The third
time is the charm. and we want !
to try the charm. Bryan is the
greatest political leader in the
party, the truest and ablest man
in public life known to this coun-
try since the war. He stands
for something stands for the
people and the people know
it. We had rather follow him
to defeat than take telegram
amendments to our platform and
a Parker for a victory. The day
for a Democratic victory is near
ing is even at the door, and
why should we displace our truest
man who has fought so
valiently for the principles of
Democracy. TheyNews will not
make suehsa choice, and does not
'believeythatfhe Democratic paris

THREE bARGEs
WENT DOWN, BUT
CREWS ESCAPED

During the severe gale yesterday after
noon the coal barge Excelsior OF the Ell
mer A. Keeler company and barge No.
701 OF the Pennsylvania railroad were
driven ashore and wrecked off Watch
Hill, II. l. Both barges had full crews
but no lives were lost due In good meas
ure TO the prompt and efficient work OF
the Watch Hill life saving crew.
The double accid.nt happened shortly
after II o'clock yesterday. The barges In
tow OF the tugs Elmer A. Keeler and w.
r.. Chadwick were both laden with soft
coal and bound from Perth Amboy to
Providence. All had gone we'll until the
boats come TO the very worst section of
the whole route. The wind was blowing
n gale and this combined with the action
of the waves, mountain high. caused the
hawsers TO break.
The anchors were Immediately thrown
out and although this retarded the speed
OF the barges 1t could not hold them, and
they .drifted along onto the shore where
they were dashed to pieces and sank
within a few moments of each other.
All the while the tugboats stood by but
they could do nothing because of the
high waves and because of the fact tnat
there was nothing aboard the barges to
which a line could be secured.
Still another barge, the Coal King. own
ed by the Luckenbach Transportation
company, while proceeding to this city,
sprang aleak and sank near Shinnecock
Light The barge was in tow of the f. #.
Luckenbach. and her captain and crew
were saved after being tossed for some
time in the small whaleboat into which
they had sprung.
