SHOWS HOW THE RICH ARE
MoNoPoLIzING RESOURCES

LONG BEACH. Oct. 22.-TEditor
Herald: In the closing days OF strug-
gle for Office little attention Is given to
an incident illustrative of the methods
by which the lands and waters OF our
locality are being rapidly monopolized,
as they now are in Great Britain, and
were In France previous to its reyo-
luton.
Until lately Reelfoot lake, Tennes-
see, adjoining the Mississippi river,
has been free for hunting and fishing.
Now, owing to the efforts of lawyers
of the class which formed the great
trusts of our country, it has become a
private preserve for a few moneyed
men. Flowing from the antagonism
thereby engendered one of the trust
lawyers has been killed and another
has barely escaped the same fate.
Later, the state, after great expense.
probably, will hang few more of the
mudsills of society.
The deplorable event, and the train
of them which will follow, is charge
able primarily to the recreancy of the
federal government, because 1t has
complete control over the waters of
navigable rivers, as 1t has over the
tideland flats of the ocean.
Reelfoot lake is part Of the Mis-
sissippi river system, it's entrance being
kept open by the outrush of water
from the lake when the river is fall

important function by impounding

wine in the manufacture of proprietary
medicines is nowhere forbidden by any
act of congress, and that the spirit,
II not the letter, of the law expressly
permits 1t. And 1t is hard to see how
any other conclusion could be reached
except under the influence OF a dis

TF MR.. TAFT has said a word In
favor of Asiatic exclusion during
"A this campaign his party organs in
San Francisco have not reported his
words. We know what he said in 1905
in favor of letting the Chinese come In,
and we know what President Roose-
velt said In 1906, in a message to con-
gress, when he recommended law
providing for the naturalization of Jap
anese, says the San Francisco Star.
The Democratic convention that NOM
mated Bryan declared:
I'VE are opposed to the admission OF
Asiatic immigrants who cannot be
amalgamated with our population, or
whose presence among us would raise
a race issue and invilve us in diplo-
matte controversies with oriental pow
ers."
That is explicit. It's meaning can
not be mistaken. But the Republican
convention that nominated Taft and
Sherman said not word about Asiatic
exclusion. Why? In his letter accept
ing the Democratic nomination Bryan
said:
'"The Chinese exclusion act has proven
an advantage to the country. and its
continuance and strict enforcement, as
well as it's extension to other similar
races, are imperatively necessary. The
Asiatic Is so essentially different from
the American that he cannot be assim-
Hated with our population. and is
therefore, not desirable as a permanent

TAFT'S NEW BURCHARD

w e ARE of course sorry over the
w arrest of Broughton Branden-
w burg. He is a clever and amia-
BILE writer, sometimes fond of sensa-
tionalism, but never hitherto suspected
of dishonesty. Mrs. Cleveland's posi-
tive denial that Mr.. Cleveland wrote
the letter which Brandenburk sold the
Republicans, however, made his ar
rest absolutely necessary.
{ 1t was absurd to think that Cleveland
should have written the letter pub
lished by the Republican papers. For
long time before his death Mr.. Cleve-
lands physical condition was deplor-
ably bad. His family and friends in
their anxiety to prevent the papers
from paying too much attention to the
invalid, from time to time stoutly de-
MED he was dangerously Ill, and from
time to time articles over his sigma
ture were published, which did not
read as If they had been written by
the Grover Cleveland of Aud Lang
Syne. They may have been founded
on notes or data furnished by Mr..
Cleveland, on stray phrases by him,
which would afterward be cooked up
into an article by some hack writer
for the magazines or papers which used
the productions accredited to Mr..
Cleveland, and may have been sent in
proof to Mr.. Cleveland, and signed by
him. If some publishers will "tell the
rla
acknowledge that this Is the explana-
ton of the sudden and wonderful lit
erary ability displayed during recent
years by many men whose achieve
ments or position or wealth made them
interesting to the public, but who never
until their magazine appearance had
been suspected of literary ability.
Doubtless Brandenburg thought he
was following a well established prece-
dent when he cooked up an article
which he thought would please the Re-
publicans. Unfortunately for him, he
was not we'll enough acquainted with
Mr.. Cleveland to write for him, and
made a mess of 1t. Neither the Ian
guage nor the sentiments OF the article
were Clevelandish, and instead of fur
nishing weapon for the Republican
party, the jealous Brandenburg flung
a boomerang for them. We cannot ex-
cuse his action; at the same time the
action of the Republicans who tried to
make the public believe Cleveland had
lost his good sense. his judgment and
his responsibility shortly before his
death, and had indorsed for the presi-
dency man he did not admire and a
policy he disapproved and detested, are
more to blame than Burchard Branden-
burg.
