Uncle r emuS.

Joel Chandler Harris will be missed
from literature, but it is in the home
and the nursery that his loss will be
most keenly felt.
He created new world for the little
folk, a rare and novel realm of fancy,
peopled with truly wond erful animals
endowed with human sagacity. He IL
troduced them to Brer Rabbit, now one
OF their best loved companions, and
made them acquainted with Brer Pos
sum and Brer Bar. He fired their
childish imagination with odd and curl.
Gus stories of negro folklore and open
ed wide their eyes with wonder tales
from plantation myths. HIS gallery
OF animal types was unique contri-
button to letters.
Harris art, like his life. was humble.
He never turned his pen to high
themes. Yet as an entirely original
American writer, one native and racy
of the soil, he deserved a place with
Poe. Whitman, Hawthorne, Mark
Twain and Bret Harte.

The MilliOnaireS and the Presi=
dent.

That millionaire Cincinnatian who is
at the point of death, as result of
cheering for thirty minutes for Roose-
VT 1t at the Chicago Convention, should
be a warning to the other So million
aires who attended the convention to
let such strenuous politics as Roosevelt
seems to require religiuusIy alone in
the future. This said case of over
wrought enthusiasm for the President
raises the serious question: Why did
1.-THE malefactors of great wealth"
cheer for the President? President
Roosevelt was supposed to be chasing
these rich malefactors to their dens in
the lairs of the Octopii, and other pre-
datory corporations, and here we have
evidence of collision. or at least, affec
ton between the millionaires and the
President, even to the point OF sacrific-
ing mis- health. if not their lives in his
behalf. This devotion is beyond our
comprehension.

One of the most formidable tasks of
Mr.. Roosevelt's successor will be to
keep the country on working basis
within its income. No project to spend
money was ever vetoed by Mr.. Roose-
Welt. Many projects to spend more
money which he advocated failed of ar-
prevail by Congress- Public extrava-
gance is disease which he has done
nothing to check, but much to make
compulsory upon later administrations.

An Era of Extravaganza.

The Roosevelt administration now
places to its account the third deficit
in seven years. With deficits of S42,-
900. 900 in 1904. $23. 900, 600 in 1916 and
now $50, 900 in 908-considering
the flush times it has enjoyed up to
nine months ago-it makes a shock
ingly bad showing.
This deficit of $50, OOC, COO for the fis-
cal year Just ended represents the
penalty paid for wilful extravaganza.
1t is only S4,O0O,OG0 less than the total
shrinkage in Government receipts dur
ing year of acute financial panic and
general depression in trade. Primarily
it is due to an increase of $50. 900, 600
in expenditures in one year. without
which there would have been only a
negligible deficit. With appropriations
amounting to the immense aggregate
Of 81, 008, 804, 1894 for the year now be-

Presidency by still deeper inroads upon
the surplus accumulated in days of
prosperity.
The twelve months just closed have
witnessed the heaviest expenditures in
the history of the country since 1865,
not excepting the period of the war
with Spain. Under Mr.. Roosevelt the

Reasonable Profit.

What is "a reasonable profit" for the
Industrial Trusts to charge over and
above the difference between the cost
of production at home and abroad? The
Republican managers who are hand
and glove with the protected trusts and
combines eviGeltly know, but are
afraid 10 inform the voters, for the
Republican platf rm declares that:
"ln all tariff legislation the true
principle of PFC, ection is best main
tanned by the i'm Jsition of sucn duties
as viii equal tne difference between
the cost of production at home and
abroad, together with a reasonable
pfofit to American idustries.
AS the present tariff undoubtedly up
ho:ts 1.-The thu principle of protec-
tion,' for it mace ethan equals the
differe;c beCwe n the cost of produc-
tion at home ara abroad'' and has al
lowed our trusts and protected inter-
ests to charge much higher prices here
than similar goods are reduced and
sold for in foreign countries. one would
think even the friends of protection
ism would be satisfied. But it appears
from what the Republican platform
declares that on top of this enormous
difference in prices here and abroad
there is to be a further increase in
tariff rates, if the Republicans are sue
cessful, by increasing the present tariff
duties, so that on top of the profits
already enjoyed, there shall be added
enough more to insure reasonable
pcofit." 1t is the evident intention of
OR Republican tariff thinkers to allow
the trusts and protected interests to
say now much the increase shall be, and
as we all know they are not bashful in
their ideas of what is reasonable. ="
Under this Rep lblican plan of tariff
revision Immediately after election,
and no doubt it cannot be too imme-
date for the trusts and protected in
terests, the present piigh. of the
American people will be comfort, pleas
ure and affiuence compared to what the
future will bring, if the voters allow
tie Republican revisionists and their
trust friends full sway.
