HAS BRYAN A CHANCE?

But what about the little "scares"
that are popping up day by day? Has
Bryan chance? That he stands
somewhat better than he stood imme-
diately after the convention at Dem
yer may be admitted. There is no en-
thusiasm in the Democratic ranks; but
none was expected to develop, so there
is no disappointment there. On the
other hand, such utter listlessness has
never existed in the Republican party
since it was organized, The bottom
of the campaign-chest is hardly COW
, cred, the thousands who suffered
from the effects of the Presidents tir-
AIDES are still sore and angry, and
Mr. Taft has not seemed to catch hold.
The me, too" notion daily becomes
more prevalent. The experienced Old
Doctor meanwhile has made no real
mistakes. His talk is the usual twad-
die, but not offensive; and he is work
ing patiently along his pacificatory
| line with characteristic assiduity, He
has no help, pecuniary or advisory

sively personal canvass, and even such
progress as has been made evidences

a while, too, he let's himself go, anC

FEDERAL LAW
PLACED IN DOUBT

In a supplemental brief which was
filed yesterday in the case OF the Unit
ed States vs. the Haleakala Ranch
Company the constitutionality OF the
law which prevents contributions TO
campaign funds by corporations was
attacked by Attorney Abe Lewis. The
strange spectacle Of a decision by a
Judge in the Territory of Hawaii be-
ing watched by the managers of all
National parties for decision is now
on the tapis. Should Judge Dole de-
eide that the law is unconstitutional
it will mean that the corporations on
the mainland that desire to, will i'm
mediately dig down for cash for their
favorite candidates.
The chief ground given in the brief
mentioned is that Congress has at
tempted to legislate on matters out
side of those with which it has con-
nection. In this manner, If state Off
GERS are being voted for at the same
election as a member of Congress,
the law fOrbids a corporations con-
tributing money for the campaign
funds of the state officer. 1t is argued
that while Congress has the right to
make such rules as it will in connec-
ton with the election of a Congress-
man, it has no right to usurp the pre-
negatives of state, and say what
shall be done in any state, county or
city election, regardless of the fact
that member of Congress is to be
voted for at the same time.
1t is also claimed that it is outside
of the province of Congress to legis-
late against state corporations, on the
ground that it has no power over the
distribution of funds by a state cor
poration where neither fraudulent nor
criminal intent is mentioned.

TARIFF PLANKS, 1908
REPUBLICAN.

The Republican party declares un-
equivocally for a revision of the tariff
by a special session of Congress imme-
diately following the Inauguration of
the next President, and commends the
steps already taken to this end in the
work assigned to the appropriate COM
mittees of the two houses, which are
now investigating the operation and
effect of existing schedules.
In the tariff legislation the true prin-
ciple of protection is best maintained
by the imposition of such duties as will
equal the difference between the cost
of production at home and abroad, to-
gether with a reasonable profit to Anne
rican industries, and the benefits that
follow are best secured by the estab-
lishment of maximum and minimum
minimum and maXimum) rates to be
administered by the President, under
limitations fixed in the law, the maxi
mum to be available to meet discrtm1-
nations by foreign countries against
American goods entering their mar
kets, and the minimum to represent
the normal measure of protection at
home; the aim and purpose of the Re-
publican policy being not only to pre-
serve. without excessive duties, that
security against foreign competition to
which American manufacturers, farm
ers and producers are entitled, but also
to maintain the high standard or liv-
ing of the wage earners of this .coun-
try, who are the most direct beneh-
Charles of the protective system.
Between the United States and the
Philippines we believe in free inter-
change of products, with such limita-
lions as to sugar and tobacco as Will
avoid injury to domestic interests

Convention at Chicago, June Is, 1908.

CANDOR.

The Colonel had demonstrated yigo-
rously with Uncle Eph about the old
darkeys persistent excursions INFO
the state OF inebriation.
Uncle Eph, though he promised faith
fully to refrain from frequent dips into
the flowing bowl, failed to live up to
the Coloners expectations.
On numerous occasions the Colonel
saw Eph under the influence of liquor,
but the darkey when taken to task
stoutly denied the accusation, affirm
ing emphatically that he did not drink.
One evening the Colonel met Uncle
Eph in a condition which made it
plainly evident that the darkey was
caught with the goods on"
"Eph," began the Colonel, seriously,

given up drink"
"Ah, sho' did, Massa Kern'l; all sho'
did" replied Eph., But lately ah dun
took up drinkin' an glib up lyin'."-

HOT SHOT FOR
THE GOVERNOR
DEMOCRATIC AT
TORNEY GENERAL ROASTS THE
STATE EXECUTIVE.

GUTHRIE (Ok.), September 23.-
President Roosevelts statement con-
corning Governor Haskell's alleged
Standard Oil connection seems to me
a very mild rebuke,' declared Charles
West Democrat), Attorney-General OF
Oklahoma, when shown the Presidents
letter to William j. Bryan tonight.
Vests statement in full follows:
The Presidents statement as to the
Prairie Oil and Gas Company suit is
less than the whole matter in its Whole
iniquity, because on the 23d of April
had informed the Governor that the
action taken by the Prairie Company
was illegal, and should be enjoined,
and that l had brought an injunction
suit. At that time, April 23d, the
Governor agreed with me as to the
illegality Of the action, and approved
the bringing of the injunction.
THE same day the Governor left the
State to go to Denver the Prairie
Company started its trespassing. This,
believe, was prearranged between
bhS NV SA ACA anu IllS lS SOtllDdly >
as the Prairie Company rushed the
laying Of its pipe line during the alb
sence of the Governor from the State.
l wired the Governor on the first OF
July, asking whether he had given
the Prairie Company permission to
build their line. His reply evaded my
sole question, and instead of answer
ing it he said that he was satisfied
that the Prairie Company would not
violate the law.
when he heard of the bringing OF
the suit he directed the acting Gov
ernor to order me to dismiss the suit,
and INDUCED in insolent language to
the effect that he would not tolerate
any proceeding by me except at his
direction. The use of this insulting
language regarding me, together with
his sudden change of heart between
April and July, evidences that some
very deep and controlling motive of 9
personal nature was back of his ac-
| ton.
The only person that the prohibi
ton could help was the Standard Oh
Company.

sALLY's QUESTION.

The worthy Sunday-school superin-
tendent Of certain Maryland town is
also the village dry goods merchant.
He is as energetic and efficient in his
religious as in his secular capacity.
An amusing incident is told of his at
tempt to enlarge the scriptural knowl-
edge of class of little girls.
He had told most eloquently the
lesson of the day, and at the conclu-
sion he looked about the room and
inquired encouragingly:
Nov, has any one a question to
ask?"
Slowly and timidly one little girl
raised her hand.
What is the question, Sally, Don't
be afraid. Speak out"
The little girl fidgeted in her seat
twisted her fingers nervously, cast her
eyes down; finally, in desperate out
burst, she put the question:

gloves for girls in your window

DEMOCRATIC.

We welcome the belated promise Of
tariff reform now offered by the Re-
publican party in tardy recognition OF
the righteousness of the Democratic
position on this question, but the peo-
pie cannot safely entrust the execution
of this important work to a party
which is so deeply obligated to the
highly protected interests as is the
Republican party. We call attention
to the significant fact that the pro-
missed relief is postponed until after
the coming election-an election to
succeed in which the Republican party
must have that same support by the
beneficiaries of the protective tariff as
it has always heretofore received from
them, and to the further fact that dur
ing the years of uninterrupted power
no action whatever has been taken by
the Republican Congress to correct the
admittedly existing tariff iniquity.
We favor immediate reduction of the
tariff by the reduction of import duties
Articles entering into competition with
trusts-controlled products should be
placed upon the free list, and material
reductions should be made in the tariff
upon the necessaries of life, especially
upon articles competing with such
American manufactures as are sold
abroad more cheaply than at home, and
graduated reductions should be made
in such other schedules as may be ne
cessary to restore the tariff to a re-
venue basis.
Existing duties have given to the
manufacturers of paper a shelter be-
hind which they have organized COM
binations to raise the price of pulp and
of paper, thus imposing a tax upon
the spread of knowledge.
We demand the immediate repeal Of
the tariff on wood pulp, print paper,
lumber, timber and logs, and that these
articles be placed upon the free list.

RHEUMATISM.

So little confidence has the average
man in the various cures for rheuma-
tism that he often suffers for years
without making any effort to find re-
lief. He then finds that it has become
chronic. This is a mistake, as the
pain can always be relieved, and in
most cases a cure effected by applying
Chamberlain's Pain Balm. The relief
from pain which it affords is alone
worth many times its cost. 1t makes
