A Trust Warned.

The tobacco trust is reported to be
about to dissolve. Friends in Wash
ington-apparently Republicans-are
said to have advised such action on
the ground that the officials of the
trust are liable to prosecution under
the antitrust law. Ever since 1902 the
department of justice has had on file
the evidence to convict the trust Off
Gals, but has refused to prosecute.
Now at this late day, just before a ma
tiOnal election, evidently for political
effect, the administration is beginning
to get busy. But apparently the trust
officials need not be alarmed, they
have the tip to prepare for the inevi-
table and by dissOlving the present
trust can organize in secret, and I'M
der a ~gentleman's agreement a still
plumber the tobacco growers and the
tobacco consumers, as the beef com
bine is doing.
1t is believed hat the entire Ameri-
can Tobacco company, the American
or United Cigar Stores company, the
American Cigar Stands company, the
American Snuff company, the Ameri-
can LicOrice company, together with
many other underlying and subsidiary
companies composing the American
Tobacco company, will undergo re-
organization, and that a number of in
dependent companies controlling the
tobacco and paper cigarette, boxes,
licorice, Russian and Turkish cigar
cite, leaf export, and other companies,
will be recognized under separate
heads.
How kind and thoughtful Our Re
publican friends are to trusts and cor
porations, especially when the cor-
tribution box is about to be handed
around for campaign funds.

APPEAL IS SELFISH
INCONSISTENT ATTITUDE OF RE-
PUBLICAN PUBLISHERS.
Newspaper Proprietors Demand Free
Wood Pulp and Free Print Paper,
But Stand Pat on Other
Trust Extortions.

The American Newspaper Publish
ers' association, mostly Republicans,
at their meeting in New York again
urged congress to pass a bill for r
wood pulp and free print paper. I'm
Gle Joe and the Republican managers
in congress were loath to take notice
Of the matter. The Republican pub
fishers can hardly blame the Republi-
can politicians. Their demand for
free pulp and paper is a very selfish
demand, for they do not ask congress
for relief from the iniquitOus tariff on
anything but paper and pulp, but ap-
pear to be willing to see everyone else
%plundered but themselves.
Now, with the publishers of Demo
cratic newspapers the demand for tar
if reform is more consistent. They
not only ask for the tariff on paper
to be removed, but also, unlike the
Republican publishers. want the tariff
tax on nearly everything else reduced
or abolished. That is, they are anX-
ious to see everyone get a fair share
Of the tariff reduction, and although
very naturally they ask that their
own business be freed from the plum
dering of a rapaciOus trust, they do
not stop at that, but ask for tariff re-
form on all articles Of necessity, es-
pecially those products sold by the
trusts cheaper to foreigners than to
our W people.
hf nO11pCn tho 0RtInn of SnnnEnr
Cannon in having a special committee
appointed to investigate the paper
trust and the price of wood pulp and
paper is but to try and evade action,
with the implied promise OF reform
ing the paper and wood schedule after
election. But can this implied prom
Use be relied on, and how will the
people fare in the tariff reductions
they desire? If the tariff protection
the paper trust enjoys is taken from
it, why should other trusts still be
protected? The whole brood of trusts
would then take alarm and the Repub-
lican campaign managers would be
seriously alarmed than the
managers of trusts, for when Mr..
Bliss and Mr.. COrtelyOu, or whoever is
selected by the Republican campaign
managers to bleed the trusts, call for
their share of the swag 10 reflect
those who firmly believe il the prin-
ciple of protection" they would hardly
be greeted with OutStretched hands as
heretofore. 1t would, therefore, seem
that the Republican publishers must
suffer for their love of protection for
the sake of principle, and the Demo
cratic publishers must suffer because
they can't help it.

CENATOR MONEY of Mississippi has
~ lived 80 years with a broken neck

for treatment for neuralgia, from

April, 1868, Mr.. Money was a cavalry
man in the confederate service. While
riding through the streets he was
struck by a bullet that circled
around his ribs, doing no other in

Money was thrown from his horse

John Fiske on the Tariff.

The Philadelphia Record quotes
from the late John Fiske, who knew
and wrote so much about America and
the American people in so many phases
of their development, social, religious
economic and historical, the following
prophetic utterances on the tariff,
albeit like most prophets he was far
ia advance and without honor in his
OWL country of the time.
"By and by, when III shameful tar.
if-falsely called protection-shall
have been done away with, and our
manufacturers shall produce superior
articles at less cost of raw material,
We shall begin to compete with Euro
pean countries in all the markets of
the world, ard the competition in
manufactures will become as keen as
it is now beginning to be in agricul.
ture. This time will not be cong in
coming, for our tariff system has al
ready begun to be discussed, and in
the light of our present knowledge
discussion means its doom. Born OF
Grass ignorance and selfdefeating
greed, it cannot bear the light. When
this curse to American labor shall
have been once removed, the economic
pressure eXerted upon Europe by the
United States will soon become very
great indeed"

Republican Chaos.

The Republican party is split on me
and my policies" and party lines are
breaking down as never before. In the
house of representatives we have seen
the extraordinary spectacle Of the
Democrats supporting many of Presi'
dent Rooseve]t's recommendations
and the whole Republican machine re-
fusing to consider the same. Then the
president set his heart upon, at least,
four new ~battleships, and the Repub-
lican leaders refused to agree with
him and appropriated but for two bat
tleships. Every southern state and
some northern districts are sending
contesting delegations to the Repub'
lican national convention, and Texas
will send three delegations, all claim
ing to be the only true representatives
of the G.. o. p.
All is chaos politically, and un'
doubtedly the voters are becoming
disguised with the Republican leaders,
and the number of Independent voters
will be greatly increased in cor So
quence. Will the Democrats so unite
as to take advantage of this state ct
affairs?

PLAN TO DECEIVE PEOPLE.
Government Bureaus Conducted in In
terest of Tariff-Protected Trusts.

Since the census bureau has been
made a permanent institution costing
millions every year, n for which
$14 600, 900 is asked to take the next
census, 1t has become a most partisan
institution. 1t Is charged by the AS
ISOLATED Press and the American
Newspaper Publishers association at
their late annual meeting, with issu-
ing false reports of news print paper
prices which were recently furnished
to congress by the director of the
census bureau. The newspapers here
represented used approximately 80
per cent. Of the new print paper con-
sumed in the United States. We de-
nounce the quotations as submitted
to congress as misleading n un-
worthy of credence. The reiteratiOn or
the accuracy of these figures Of the di-
rector after the error had been called
TO public attention tends to shake
public confidence and respect for sta
tlstics thus compiled"
1t is rather a satisfaction to have
the charge of partisan statistics made
by Democrats substantiated by such
a high authority, but it is rather late
in the day for such an acknowledge
ment by Republican publishers, whose
papers have derided the Democratic
claim. The fact is that not only the
census bureau, but the statistical bu-
reaus Of other departments, have all
hppn II1n in tho intOrnct of tho t1riR
protected interests, and the false re-
ports" now charged against the cen
sus bureau can be also proved against
the labor bureau and the statistical
bureau Of the department Of com
MERGE and labor.
It is quite doubtful if there has
been an honest census, but it Is GER
tain that the statistics adduced from
the material gathered have been Sys-
tematically arranged to support the
theory and practice Of the protective
tariff.
Dishonest and garbled statistics is
sued by government authority for par
tisan purposes to deceive the people
is the greatest crime that can be com
mitted against the taxpayers who pay
the bills. One of the first reforms
that the Democratic party should I'M
dertake. if granted power by the
voters, is to reorganize the issue OF
statistics by the government. Lei us
have an honest census and honest sta
tistics founded thereon, and we call
on our honest Republican brethren to
join in urging it on congress.

charm which carries with it a potent
refining influence.
There is one bedroom in this house
that will remind New Englanders of
ONE of the old Puritan homes. 1t
occupies the whole wide gable over
the reception room and kitchen and it
is II feet wide by Is feet in length,

toned dormer window in the front.

but his room does not depend on the

in the gable end that will invite sun
shine. While occupying this room it
is easy to imagine yourself living in
the eighteenth century in some little
New England town and you naturally
expect pumpkin pies and doughnuts
for breakfast in the morning.
This is not a small house. Don't
make the mistake of trying to get an
effect like this by building a small
house. 1t will prove disappointing
every time. The plan calls for a cell
lar 33X36 feet, and this a large cellar
as houses are laid out at the present
time. The size accounts for the pleas
ant, comfortable rooms.
Some people demand too much of a
house plan. A good architect will
stretch building material to meet a
great many emergencies, but there
are limitations beyond which the
best of them cannot go. Although this
house is considered large it is not
necessary to make it very expensive.
By using stock sizes of materials that
are commonly carried by all supply

cities.

all right, unless We carry economy to
the extreme.
Here is a roof that defies uniformity;
at the same time, it is pleasing and at
tractive. The old-fashioned idea that
both sides or both ends of a roof must

much sameness.

cellar that is very easy and accessible.
Another pleasing feature and one
that works for economy is the placing
of the large chimney where it answers
for the crate In the reception room
and for the kitchen range as we'll as
for the heating plant. And this chin
ney is surrounded by the building in
such a way as to induce good draft.

T is quite the ordinary thing to say
that the wife Of a politician is his
adviser. The politician likes to have
1t said, for there is a sort Of sentiment
which attaches to it which appeals to

Queer Tariff Reform,

Secretary Taft is getting further
away from my policies" and nearer to
the tariff protected and predatory in
terests as the time for the Republican
convention draws near. His latest ut
terance on the tariff sounds like II
was drawn from the lowest depth OF
the Cannon oracle by n of the high
priests of protection. For years the
Republican leaders have been thor
Oughly considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of a revised tariff" and Taft has now
caught the same procrastination idea.
for he says:
That is a problem which is now be-
ing seriously discussed by the Repub-
Iican leaders of the two houses, and it
seems to be the general opinion
among them that the ACCESSIBILITY OF a
revised tariff should be thoroughly
considered"
What bosh to try and impress the
country with the idea, that the ad'
visibility of a revised tariff should be
thoroughly considered" That is the
old and delusive stand-pat argument
that has done duty for years and has
been so thoroughly considered" that
it is threadbare. This shows that
even those republicans, like Mr.. Taft,
who have swayed to the popular
breeze Of tariff reform, are either
afraid of the protected monOpolists, or
are really protectionists at heart and
are intent on again fooling the plum
dered people.
