action is brought against the Denver
and Rio Grande company for its fail
ure to place on the market $40, 000. 200
worth OF coal lands in Utah and Colo
RADIO. The company asked for an ex:
tension of time, declaring that owing
to the financial stringency it had been
unable to find a market for the lands
Congress, however. refused to post
pone the time limit. In case the court
upholds the law. millions of dollars
worth of coal lands will be placed or

The Woman Amanuensis.

The male amanuensis has been
hopelessly beaten in the race by the
busy woman scholar. Her industry Ia
dreless and her knowledge absolutely
thorough. Her winning qualification
is patience-the dry details which
slacken a mans attention are vigor.
ously grappled with in her case, so
that the demand for her labor and
knowledge is on the increase.
In a few years. however, she will
have wiped the male amanuensis out

OF her that the British museum is the
only great building in London in which
one never sees a pretty costume-ex-

A SUBJECT FOR AMERICAN
WORKERS.

Both parties are pledged to take
up the subject of tariff revision in
congress at the beginning of the next
administration. But there is a
mighty difference The Republicans
propose to make the changes needed
along protective lines. They will fix
the schedules so that the wages OF
American workmen, the highest in
the world, will not be lowered by
competition with foreign wages, and
fair profits for manufacturers will
also be protectively treated. The
Bryan platform is for an extra SEES
sion of congress after March 4 next
to frame new tariff law based on
free trade. Its only object would be
revenue. with all protective features
eliminated. In casting his ballot il
is for the worker in this country to
weigh the vital differences between
the two policies. They strike home
to him, for they touch his wages and
opportunities for employment. On
one hand is comfort, and on the
other is distress. In one case the
worker moves ahead steadily, and,
in the other he is either out of en-
ployment or lahors for wages neces-
sarily declining to the foreign level,
for under free trade goods made
abroad are poured in without any
protective restraints.
In his speech of acceptance Mr..
Bryan denounces the policies and
record of the Republican party. He
says it should be sent into exile and
its protective tariff uprooted. There
are many millions of men in the
United States who make a living in
man ufacturing industries. They
know that in the present long period

White Pine county's first political
club for the campaign was organized
by Republicans in Ely City last night
with a rousing membership. The
meeting learned that Ely City will
poll good strong Republican major
ity. The coming of this organization
and the enthusiasm it has right to
is a gloomy portent for the Demoe-
racy of White Pine, already on the
run.
The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1908-08-21

of Republican control manufacturing
has greatly increased, that work has
been plentiful, and that wages have
advanced. They are able to contrast
the situation with what it was I'M
der Democratic administration be-
tween 1892 and 1896, The figures,
in one respect, can be exactly given,
and that is in the exports OF our
manufactures. In the last l ? yeats
these have doubled. and doubled
again. 1t has leen proved during
this time that our manufactured ar
ticles are not only able to gain Il
footing in foreign markets, but in
some lines to take the lead Our
workmen are intelligent, ambitious
and inventive. Their standard Of liN-
ing is high and protection will keep
it high. A well paid American work
man, secure in his rate of wages, is
much more productive than the poor
ly paid European drudge whose
chances to better himself are infinite
ly smaller.
The most that the Bryan party can
effect at this time would De 70 elect
the president and Democratic
house. Throughout the next four
years, at least, the senate viii re-
main Republican Mr.. Bryan says he
will call an extra session 10 meet
March to revise the tariff. What
could he do with congress divided
The common sense course is to elect
a Republican president and house.
All departments of the government
will then be responsibility controlled
by one party, and tariff revision can
proceed. Bryans election would
merely produce a legislative dead
lock. The tariff as it is could not he
changed except as far as the Repuh-
licans themselves would care 10
change it in the short session Of con-
gress between next December and
March 4. Mr. Bryan knows perfect
ly we'll that he can bring about no
tariff revision in the next -four years
and he is pledged to one term only
He is eager to be president. The
rest is immaterial to him.

Does he personally favor the legal
zation of the hoyeott?' Mr. Van
Cleave asks. and he adds that the
country is interested in getting
plain. direct answer from Mr.. Bryan
on this point, and in getting it just
as quickly as he can give It,"
Speaking of the guaranty fund
which the Denver platform urges for
the payment of depositors of insolv-
ent national or state banks, Mr.. Van
Cleave asks:
BLOW AT HONEST BANKER.
Does not Mr.. Bryan know that
this vicious provision would penal
ize the honest and careful banker
for the benefit of the banker who is
dishonest and reekle Can he not
see that this scheme would remove
all the safeguards which our present
laws have raised up against such
plungers and grafters as have worked
their way into the control of many
of our banks. that 1t would immedi-
ately and immensely increase the
number of such bankers and that II
would precipitate an era of extrava-
gance, wild speculation and corrup-
ton which would wreck our whole
financial system? Is not Mr.. Bryan
aware that his wild cat banking
scheme of 1908 would bring chaos
and ruin TO the country even quicker
and in larger measure than his silver
debasement of the currency of 1896
and 1900 would have brought it?'
