Good money is made by the Govern

by manufacturers who are willing to

of the material offered to you through
the medium Of their advertisements in
this paper. Counterfeit goods are not

Testimonial to American Navv

Some OF the criticism that has lately

critics seem to be consttutionally I'M

If there are any persons who are

Sir William Henry White has to say.
Sir William was for nearly 20 years
responsible designer of all British war
ships, and the purchase of two of his
designs was the foundation of the
present American navy, for from those
designs the Charleston and the Balti-
more were built
According TO this good authority, we
have naval architects as capable as
any in the world, and our shipbuilding
yards are quite equal to any in Great
Britain. The result is that, in Sir
Williams opinion, the United States

good as anything the world contains
and. next to the British navy, is the
most formidable in existence.
This testimonial from a man who
knows what he is talking about should

the glorious exploits of Manila and

FOR C0l0RE0 SCHOOL.

Winchester, Ky, Oct. 2-The first
of a series OF meeting to be held in
different parts of the State for the
purpose of raising money enough to
establish a first class school for color

this city last night at the Broadway
Colored Baptist church.
The meeting was conducted by Rev.
James Bond, one of the trustees Of
Berea College, and President Frost, Of
the college. 1t is their intention to
raise $4,000 in Kentucky and of that
amount they expect TO raise as much
as $1,000 in Winchester. Only small
crowd was present at the meeting, but
$3.50 was raised. Another meeting will
be held Thursday night for the same

SALOON KEEPERS WARNED.

The Citizen is very glad to give
space this week to a letter which
is being sent to all the retail liquor
dealers in this country by the Nation
al Model License League-an organ
ization which is trying to stop the
spread of prohibition sentiment in
this country. While there are many
things in the letter with which we do
not agree, 1t is worth reading as an
admission that the saloon keepers Of
the country are a lawless class, and
that they are themselves responsible
for and deserve the fate which is
o lsrtaking them.
The address is as follows:
TO THE SALOON KEEPERS OF
THE UNITED STATES.
The prohibition wave that was
sweeping over the country would
seem to be on the wane but the
protest on the part of the people
against the lawless saloon, the dive
and gambling resort is not subsiding,
but is exhibiting its force in local
option conflicts.

LABOR TURNS TO TAFT.
Toilers Scent Danger In the FalIaeiss
Of MIR. Bryan.

W. - 49,
Convincing evidence was furnished
by the conference at Cincinnati last
week by Judge Taft with Oscar
Straus, secretary OF commerce and la
Dor. and r. V. Powderly. formerly
general master workman Of the
Knights of Labor, that the attitude OF
labor Is growing each day more friend
ly TO Taft. The campaign OF education
which the Republicans have been car
rying on has been effective. and the
laboring man. so Mr.. Powderly told
the candidate. Is beginning to appre-
ciate the fact that a restoration OF
business confidence through the cleo
ton Of Mr.. Taft means more work and
prosperous times for him.
Secretary Straus announces his in
tention to go out on the stump for the
specific purpose OF exposing some OF
the Bryan fallacies I'm regard TO labor
Said Mr. Straus: THE most dangerous
of these fallacies is presented In
Bryan's slogan, Shall the people ruler
and well may he ask It. for every one
Of his leading doctrines is a denial OF
that rule"
Mr.. Straus classes Mr.. Bryan's gov
eminent guarantee Of bank deposits as
next In point of danger to his plan for
the government ownership OF railroads.
Mr.. Straus believes this guarantee
proposition is as great menace as the
old 16 TO / hobby. ITO guarantee de-
posits," said Secretary Straus, ''is to
guarantee the loans OF the banks. for,
as a matter of fact. large part OF the
banks deposits is made up OF credits
extended by the bank to borrowers and
by them deposited or placed on the
books Of the banks as deposits"
Mr.. Powderly said among other
things after his talk with Taft: la
Dor never was better organized. better
paid. more independent or more re-
spected than it is today. Never was II
more secure in Its share OF the outcome
Of the commodity or the good VIII and

Differed unions. What labor organiza-
tons now enjoy. and they enjoy more
than they ever enjoyed in the civilized

in a nonpartisan way through their
unions.
"Of course there are many men out
OF employment as the result OF the
recent depression. but to my knowl-
edge men are returning to their old oc-
equations all over the country and at
their old rates Of pay. ! recall the
awful panic OF 1873 and that Of 1893,
and in neither case did men go back to
work at their old wages. The case is
different now. and to my mind II would
be suicidal for labor TO vote in such a
way as 10 imperi the return Of full
prosperity, so rapidly manifesting

AMERICAN GOODS ABROAD.
Policy Of Cheaper Sales Has Consent
Of Both Parties.

OF Both Parties-
Secretary Shaw estimates that out
OF every $1,000 worth OF manufactures
exported from this country 30 cents
worth are sold abroad cheaper than at
home. SO far the complaint OF the
Democrats that our manufactures sell
abroad cheaper than at home seems 10
be true But this Is not as great n dis
count In the export trade as the ad.
vantage given 90 manufactures in the
importation OF raw materials. that they
may employ American labor M Amer
lean wages In the manufacture OF goods
that are TO be sold abroad In competi.
ton.
II has been the policy OF the Repub-
lican party for a number Of years to
encourage such competition In foreign
markets. The drawback on materials
imported for manufactures that are 10
be exported Is not peculiar to the
Dingley law. The same provision was
In the Mckinley law. and II was lncor-
porated In the Wllson-Gorman law by
the Democrats. II was kept In the law
when the Dingley act was passed be
cause II became the policy OF the gov
eminent by common consent OF both
parties.
Last year we imported Si0.000.0O0
worth OF materials which went into
manufactures for export. and the draw
back was paid on about 8 per cent OF
our imports. This would make II pos
sible for the American manufacturers
to sell about 5 per cent OF their exports.
or S120.OOO.000 worth. cheaper abroad
than at home. The advantage given by
the drawback was given for the pur-
pose OF enabling them to go into for
eign markets and compete. even II
they had 20 sell cheaper than at home.
And this advantage was given In the
Democratic tariff act OF 1894. Just as II
had been In the Mckinley act OF 1890
and as II Is now given by the Dingley
act OF 1897.
II is therefore not a partisan ques-
ton. because II has had recognition
from both political parties. II is a
part of the policy to meet competition
In foreign markets rather than protec-
ton for the home market Its definite
purpose is TO enable manufacturers In
this country TO give employment to
American labor for the production OF
goods for consumption In Europe In
stead OF leaving that manufacture to
European producers employing Euro
pean labor.
