FOR HOMEOPATHIC TREATMENT
Declares for Tariff for Revenue, to Be
Reached by Gradual Adjustment
Sustains Reputation as a Brilliant
Theorist But Impracticable-News of

Special to Times-Republican.
the State.

L
Des, Moines, Aug. 24.-The new feat
ure of William Jennings Bryan's ar
gunlent for a tariff for revenue only
which has been awaited by the people
of Iowa expectantly since the an
nouncement emanated from Lincoln
that the democratic nominee would
have something interesting and novel
to say in this connection, proves ac-
cording to careful auditors, to be his
declaration that the tariff shall he
placed on revenue basis, gradually
and not Immediately on his election to
the office OF the president of the United
States.
The panacea for the ills of the farm
er is to be taken in small doses and
to extend over a period of years, in or
der that his system may not be
shocked by too sudden reception OF
the remedy. The tariff is to be placed
on a revenue only basis by gradual
steps. In this way il the experiment is
unsuccessful the step can easily be re-
trieved, for say Mr.. Bryan, 1--WE elect
a congress every two years and a pres
ident every four years and the people
can stop any policy if the results of
that policy are not satisfactory
Those who expected that Mr.. Bryan,
in his eagerness for Iowa votes would
retrench somewhat, take an advanced
stand or tone down the multiplication
utterances of previous years, We're dis
appointed. True, he makes a palpable
plea for progressive republican votes,
and devoted two thirds OF his time to
the exposition of arguments for the re-
vision of the tariff, a contention which
all republicans uphold and to which
the party is pledged. But in conclusion
he reiterates the arguments of prev
ious years, arguments which have
been threshed out, proved the rankest
isophistry and received the invariable
disapproval of the voters, except in one
memorable instance, for generations.
He declares unequivocally for a
tariff for revenue only, denying that
American industries need protection
from foreign competition; acknowl-
edging that American labor is better
paid, but claiming that the reason is
because of its greater intelligence and
better organization. He claims that
foreign trade would expand on the tar
.iff for revenue only basis, that the far
,mer of the Missouri valley would en-.
JOY q cheaper market in which toimake
his purchases He does not deny that
prices will be lowered but claims that,
"a reduction in price will enable more
people to buy. and this larger demand
for goods will put more people to work
and increase the number of industries"
The first part Of the address dealing.
with the necessity for tariff revision
is illustrated with incidents and is
largely practical in its trend, but in
conclusion in drawing the vivid pic
lures Of the unequalled tariff principle,
the speaker ascends to the heights OF
theoretical argument, sustaining his
reputation as one of the most brilliant
theorists of the age.

Keokuk, Aug 24.-The efforts of
ghouls to steal the body of Mrs. Fred
Weiseman from it's resting place in
Oakland cemetery was frustrated by
Fred Weiseman, the surviving husband
of the deceased, who fired a volley of
five shots at the night intruders, and
their wicked designs were brought to
an end.
This late effort at stealing the body
OF one who has been laid In final rest
comes as a great shock and nothing
should be left undone to intercept the
villains and bring them to justice.
Fred Weiseman, in company with his
brother, Frank, walked to the ceme-
terry shortly before II o'clock in the
evening, called by that voice which
make SO many people visit Oakland
cemetery to linger near the grave of
some relative or dear friend. AS the
two neared the grave they became
aware of the presence of some one
much nearer than they were, and after
careful listening knew that some per-
son or persons were tampering with
the grave. Fred Weiseman had on his
person revolver, and with little
thought or delay he opened fire. The
thief, who it is thought, entered the
cemetery by himself, leaving COM
panion in a vehicle near, made hasty
retreat. The two brothers approached
the grave and found that nothing had
been molested, and from all appear
ances the midnight intruder had been
at the grave only a few seconds.
Mr.. Weiseman stated this morning
that it was his opinion that the person
or persons engaged in the even
ing adventure We're there for the
purpose of robbing the grave Of the
body, and not for the jewelry or valu-
ables contained in the casket.
This is the first attempt Of this kind
that has been made in Keokuk for sew
eral years. and it is thought that the
cemetery will be free from intruders
for some time to come.

Of the Chicago Great Western willnot
secure control of the property IL the
English bondholders can prevent it,
and local railroad companies are agog
over the announcement that the pro-
tective committee of the English de-
benture bondholders of the system have
decided upon the formation of a new
company, incorporated in this coun-
try, to buy in all the property of the
Great Western, reorganize entire sys-
tenn, and prevent the sale of the same
to any of the competing interests in
this section of the country. This solu-
ton of the problem which confronts
the shareholders was arrived at only
after the most thorough study of the
situation. 1t means that none Of the
controlling forces in the railroad
groups which have their eye on the
system will be able to gain control Of
it.
1t will be recalled that some time
ago this protective committee of the
English debenture holders, accompa-
MED by the general manager Of the
system and one of the receivers passed
thru this city on what was then an
nounced as a tour of inspection of the
system. This committee was appointed
by the stock and bondholders of the
road to look after their interests. 1t
was these same English capitalists,
who practically own and control the
system, who caused the receiversh1p
to be made, for the purpose, 1t now
develops, to make q reorganization OF
the entire system.
According to q statement made on
Friday by one in position to speak
on the affairs of the sys-
tenn, it can be stated that this protect
i've committee will at once proceed to
the formation of a new company. in
corporated under the laws of one of the
eastern states. AS soon as this new
company is Incorporated, it will buy
in all the properties, rolling stock,
and so forth, of the entire system.
A railroad man makes the following
statement in reference to the affairs
of the Great Western system:
"The English committee of the de;
benture bondholders of the Chicago
Great Western railroad company have
decided upon plan of reorganization,
which does not include the sale Of the
property to competing interests in the
Great Western field"
