cotton and more manufactured
goods than it can consume, it is to
the interest OF the United States to
develop for itself world markets
under the most favorable conditions
possible. The tariff prevents or
obstructs the attainment OF those
favorable conditions.
"That the tariff is not necessary
to the maintenance of American
wages or American stan dards OF
living appears clearly frop, the
common practice of selling Ameri-
can goods in foreign countries at
much lower prices than they are
sold in the United States and vet
at a profit.
"If the American people mean to
maintain their individual liberty
in industries, trades, commerce and
politics, they must steadily defend
themselves against monopolies.

THE TARIFF

Here is what the president of
Harvard thinks of the tariff,
that great "protection" to the
American workingman.
Cambridge, Mass. Sept 21.-In q
paper addressed to the Reform
League of American Charles w.
Elliott of Harvard college today
made an attack on the existing
tariff system. President Elliott
said in part:
1.-THE high Tariff which has pre-
vailed in the United States since
the Civil war has done little good
in the way Of building up new in
dustries, but it has done immeasur-
able harm and is likely to do more
and more harm.

normal years much more grain and

The truth OF the whole matter
is that William Howard Taft is
trying to inject some OF the Roose-
welt policies into his campaign
speeches, while the republican
platform and the republican cam
paign managers are not standing
for anything of that kind. Bryan
represents all the Roosevelt policies
at large in this campaign which
would be of any benefit to the
people. which explains why the
Wall street interests and the
predatory corporations are boost
ing the Taft campaign fund.

"LET THE PEOPLE RULE"
Appeal to Democrats
for Bryan and Kern Cam
paign Fund, from the
Democratic National
Committee

To the Editor OF the Free Press,
Grangeville, Idaho
Dear Sir:
There are no secrets in this
Campaign. Strictly practicing
what he breaches, Mr.. Bryan
would not win victory with
tainted money paying the cleo
ton expenses.
Not a dollar is to be accepted
which requires any promise,
either express or implied, other
than for honest, impartial gov
eminent.
Mr.. Bryan will enter the
White House absolutely free
from entangling alliances, free
to serve all classes OF honest cit
liens alike, or he will not enter
it at all.
Hence the course is plain. The
campaign OF Bryan and Kern
must be conducted by the peo-
pie.
The people must pay the nee
essary campaign expenses If they
want public servants who will
serve their interests.
Special interests and favored
classes, having secured "swollen
fortunes" by purcha sing favors
in the past with millions contrib
nted to control elections, stand
ready to give millions more for
continued favors. But that class
never gives a dollar unless it
buys pledge.
Mr.. Bryan says, from March
4, 1909, LET the people rule.o
This can come only if the peo-
pie pay their own bills, and con-
troll their own elections.
Beware Of the trusts bearing
gifts"
That policy Of the favored few
buying a mortgage on the Gov
eminent meant tina. the candi-
date for President knew a few
people only in an entire State.
Bryan says, 1--WE will take
the cause OF peoples rule home
to the people in every county"
You can serve the grand cause
OF popular government through

Jacob Matthieson will make an
excellent commissioner. He is a

for Matthieson will be step in the
right direction.

IMPORTANT DECISION OF JUDGE SLOAN AT PRESCOTT OF GREAT INTEREST TO MINING MEN ALL OVER THE TERRITORY.

PRESCOTT, July 27.-In deciding that the claims of ore sellers constitute
 lien on the properties of the Arizona Smelling company, in the district court, Judge Sloan rendered a decision that
 is not only of vast importance through.
 out the mining districts of the terri
 tory, but he also judicially established
 new principle of law never raised before in any Arizona court. The court held that the ore sellers had statutory lien on the property as well as the laborers. Further time was given attorneys for both sides in the lien of the s. F. P. & P. Railroad
 company, against the smelting company
 the court intimating that inasmuch as
 the railroad company was common
 carrier it had the right to demand pay
 ment for the transportation of ores and
 supplies before the same left it's pos session.
 To Attorney John Mason Ross is due
 the credit of discovering the origin of the statute which led to the decision He discovered that this particular stat
 ute had been copied from an old Ne
 vada statute and, delving further, he
 found decisions of the supreme court
 of that state bearing directly upon the
 case.

 Dr. Ketcherside will be succeeded as physician of the territorial prison by pr. H. .. Clymer of Yuma for long time practitioner of Phoenix.
 The resignation of pr. Ferguson, the retiring superintendent of the asylum, was received with regret, for under his administration many reforms have been put into effect in that institution. and it has been in every way modernized But Dr. Ferguson could not be induced to remain owing to his desire to re-en. gage in more lucrative practice of his profession.
 The administration is assured that un- der the government of Dr. Keteherside there will be no going backward at the asylum.

STRANGEMAN ACTS
 IN STRANGE WAY
GIANT STRANGER IN BIsBEE AR RESTED FOR IMPERsoNATING AN oFFIcER-HAD BEEN ON A PRoTRACTED SPREE.

BlSBEE, July 2S.-Henry Strange man was arrested near the plaza Sunday
 morning about l:30 by Constable J. F Wilmoth for impersonating an officer Strangemtn went into Shattuck' s short
 ly before o'clock and demanded a x-shooter from Henry Ginder, the bar. tender. He told him he was an officer and needed gun. Ginder informed Strangeman that he had no gun to give him. Thereupon Strangeman started back of the bar, at the same time re- marking that he would get the gun himself. He was put out and told that unless he moved along an officer would be called. Strangeman said that would just suit him. He said he had cleaned out all the officers in Goldfield not long ago and would like to take on one or two of them in Bisbee.
 Constable Wilmoth came along short. ly after Strangeman had left. He fol lowed the man up and placed him under arrest on the plaza. Strangeman was at first inclined to resist, but sub mitted quietly when Wilmoth demon strated that he would stand for no foolishness.
 Strangeman had an Elks card from kingman. Ariz. He claimed Sunday night and also on Friday in several places that he is deputy United States marshal. He has evidently been on n spree. Strangeman is giant in stature, weighing over 200 pounds. He is in cell in the city jail.
