HOW BRYAN'q SYSTEM WORKS.
Clever Methods of suppressinE Of
fensiye Opposition.

fenstYe Opposition.
James Creelman in Pearson's.
Let the Wall street conspirators in the
democratic party attempt to organize
trouble in any part OF the country by pick
ing out and supporting a conservative can
didate for the presidency.
As soon as the movement begins to at
tract attention 1t will somehow happen
that Mr. Bryan Is to lecture-for 80 per
cent OF the ticket money-in the particular
state or neighborhoOd where the conserva-
tive candidacy Is being pressed. The
Original Bryan men, simultaneously an
nounce in the local newspapers that ban
quet OF reception meeting is to be held in
Mr.. Bryan's honor on the occasion of his
visit. This forces politicians to Join in
the compliment or run the risk OF inviting
the vengeance of Bryan men at the next
election.
The result is a stir in the local news
papers, interviews, an active discussion In
political circles. paying audiences at Mr.
Bryans lectures, a rafting political speech
from him, and a series of confidential
political conferences, in which his manly
good-natured and magnetic way OF dealing
with voters-a breezy, familiar clap on the
shoulder for one, a vaguely exalted cpl
gram for another, pointed joke Tor Still
another. and a defiance Of Wall street
Cleveland, Ryan, Belmont and the ''subsid-
lied press for all-soon frightens the local
conservative politicians into inactivity or
hurried acceptance OF ''peerlessness' as
a TegTettable but inevitable element in the
supreme democratic leadership.
II is hard to find a politician who does
not realize that If Mr.. Bryan cannot him
self be elected president of the United
States. no man in his party can succeed
against his opposition or without his hearty
approval.
But how could Mr. Bryan travel con-
stantly about the country, hire halls
and bring audiences together II he had
TO foot the bills himself7" Where would
he get the money! How would he support

moner going? How would he acquire United

against increasing years and possible
decline OF radical sentiment?

NO MUNICIPAL MILLENNIUM

If people have the idea that the
adoption of the commission plan of
city government would Of itself be i'm
mediately followed by the municipal
millennium they will do we'll to get the
notion out of their heads. Des Moines
set of city officers under the commits
sioner plan, but judging from perusal
of the local newspapers a city election
for commissioners is not very different
from a city election for the usual
bunch of aspirants for city hall berths.
One of the candidates for commissioners
has addressed a public appeal Ito the
people of Des Moines," asking for
their support and telling what may be
expected if they do not rally behind
him to prevent the franchised corpora
tions from capturing the whole works.
Among other things, he says:
These interests do not expect to turn the
voters from me in this election, but will
under cover of villainous attacks corrupt
the ballot. as has been done before. even
W tne extent OF purchasing Ialse Counls'
Overconfidence is my greatest danger, and
ask that my friends exercise the greatest
vigilance There is no law that these in
terests fear that will cause them to hest
tate to accomplish my defeat.
Think of this from Des Moines,
which is to be governed by commits
sion, the very notice of which was to
make all evils that beset other cities
vanish into thin air. Apparently the
municipal millennium is not to be Gre
ated by merely writing it on the
statute books.

pile data regarding the tariff schedules
and to report 70 the new congress,
which will be charged with the duty
of making the revision.
The action of the Illinois republicans
is significant in showing that even the
most ardent "standpatters" have
finally recognized the growing demand
for tariff reform.
The tarin declaration of the Ohio
platform, generally accepted as the
keynote of Mr.. Tsft's campaign, has
met with such universal commendation
that opponents OF revision have evi-
IDENTIFY seen the folly Of resisting any
change in existing schedules. Business
conditions, the state of the federal
treasury and the pressure of public
opinion are evidently having their eff
feet and the declaration of the Illinois
republicans makes 1t certain that the
republican national platform will
specifically favor tariff revision at a
special session to be held in the spring
Of next year.

TAR1FF REYIsloN coM1Na.

The Illinois republican convention,
dominated by the friends of Speaker
Cannon, who has heretofore stead
fastly opposed any change in the tariff,
has declared in unequivocal terms
for tariff revision at a special session
of congress Immediately after the in
auguration of the next president on
March 4. 1909. The tariff revision
resolution was presented with the ap-
proval of Speaker Cannon, as the plat
form was brought from Washington
by Congressman Boutell. one OF the
speakers closest personal friends and
political advisers. 1t had been reported
that the platform would call for "re-
adjustment" but at the last moment
the word revision" was substituted.
The tariff plank of the platform is
as follows:
We therefore recommend 10 our delega-
tion TO the republican national convention
that they urge upon the convention the
wisdom Of declaring for a revision Of the
tariff, to be made at the next session Of
congress OF ~ a bpcCihi bceoiou OF tue
sixty-first congress. TO be convened i'm
mediately after the Inauguration OF the
next president, March l. 1903.
We believe that our tariff should contain
a provision for minimum and maximum
rates-the minimum rates giving full pro-
lection, the maximum rates to be invoked
for retaliating upon foreign countries that
discriminate against AmSrican products.
We believe that two main ideas should
pervade all the provisions Of the tariff;
First. that the protective principle 30 pre-
vail in all the schedules that American
farmers. workmen and producers shall be
gwen the first call ON the home market,
and. secondly. that no Illegal OF unjust
combination. trust or monopoly shall find
encouragement OF shelter In any OF It's
provisions.

COOPER TELLS REPORTER WHY
HE ACCOMPLTSHES SO MUCH q

No man in recent years has been more
successful In restoring human health than
Ia 7. Cooper. During his stay in Chicago,
and while he was meeting thousands OF
people daily, he gave the following rea-
son for the remarkable demand for his
medicine TO a reporter:
Mr.. Cooper said; MY New Discovery is
successful because It corrects the stomach.
My theory is that few can be sick II the
digestive apparatus Is working properly.
II naturally follows that few can be well
with q poor digestion.
II know from experience that most Of
tired. half-siok people that are 50 common
nowadays have half-sick stomachs Put
the stomach in shape. and nature does the
rest. The result is general good health.
My medicine does this. That is why fifty
thousand people here IN Chicago are using
II who never heard OF me until a month
ago"
Among the fifty thousand mentioned by
Mr.. Cooper who used his medicine in Chi
cago is Mrs Hilda Pflueger. living at 19Os
Ainslie Avenue. This Is the statement she
makes concerning her experiment with the
medicine:

THE pRrsIprNrs MpssAeE.

The keynote of President Roose-
velt's latest message to congress Is
demand for legislative action on
number OF subjects Of great impor-
tance to the American people and upon
some of which complications have
arisen by reason Of recent court deci-
sions. Some leaders in both branches
of congress have apparently become
committed to a policy of inaction, pre-
ferring to defer consideration OF most
of these questions until after the presi-
Dental election. The president, in eff
feet, protests against this policy, de-
claring that there is yet ample time
to take up the various bills that have
been introduced and given partial con-
sideration by committees in both
branches of congress.
The president urges legislation at
this session as follows:
The child labor law.
An employers liability law for in
terstate carriers.
A modification of the law of injunc-
tions in labor disputes.
Amendment of the interstate com
merce law to allow combinations of
railways, under proper supervision, for
beneficial and proper purposes.
Federal supervision of all agree
ments between corporations. labor
farmers and others engaged in supply
ing either capital, labor or products
for interstate commerce.
A permanent inland waterways COM
mission.
The adoption of some plan of col
lecting data on tariff to be used at a
special session of the sixty-first con-
gress to revise the revenue laws of the
nation.
The two new features in this pro-
gram are the plans for a tariff revi-
sion and the suggestion that laws be
enacted more clearly defining the
status of labor organizations and the
relations that should exist between the
different contributors to Interstate
commerce. On this latter proposition
the president outlines no specific plan,
but he holds it absolutely essential
that the rights of laborers and farm
ers to organize be equally legalized
as the rights Of capital to form organi-
cations and combinations. He holds
that all the interests engaged in the
industries essential to the country's
welfare should have equal protection
under the law. He suggests that all
such combinations should be under the
supervision of federal authorities.
Most of the recommendations made
by the president have been discussed
and considered for months, some for
years. The president voices public
sentiment in urging early action on
these subjects and thus places the re-
sponsibility for failure or delay
squarely up to congress.

rHE suoAR rRusrs REponr


While the public may not find spe-
cial interest in the report of the
American Sugar Refining company
the so-called Sugar trust--just made
public, the report nevertheless is sig
nificant in the fact that it is the first
time this corporation has ever taken
the public into its confidence. The
Sugar trust has been a close corpora
tion for many years. 1t has resisted
in the courts every effort made to
force publicity from It. Its sharehold-
ers have been allowed to know but
little of its operations. but the COM
pany has yielded to the demand for
greater publicity of corporation affairs
and announces that hereafter 1t will
make complete annual reports of its
business.
Incidentally, the report shows that
the company has capital stock OF
500, ,000,0 and earned in 1907 a net
profit of $S,74S,391, leaving surplus
of $2,449,361, after paying z per
cent dividend. While the report is not
nearly so detailed as those furnished
by some of the other big corporations
it's publication is an acknowledgment
of legitimate demand for information
concerning the great corporations that
deal in commodities and whose opera.
tions so vitality affect the welfare OF
the whole people.

SLANpERLNG DENVER.

All these stories in circulation
about Denver's preparations to raid
the visitors to the forthcoming demo-
cratic national convention must be
made of the whole cloth. They are
vile ISLANDERS concocted by malicious
miscreants and pushed along by po-
litieal bushwhackers who want to keep
people away in order to reduce the ac-
claim which will greet the third-time
nomination of Mr.. Bryan for the pres
idency.
OF this there can be no question, be-
cause we now have the word of Judge
Edgar Howard. Just returned from a
personally conducted tour of inspec-
ton, that all the dismal forebodings
about Denver's inability to care prop
erly for the crowds are without rhyme
or reason. He says:
1 talked with scores of Denver people
regarding the claim of the eastern news
papers that Denver will be unable to care
for the convention crowd. and that stran-
gers will be robbed by hotels restaurants

priced the rooms at various hotels and re-
served quarters at good house at a rate
no higher than was charged by the Omaha
hotels during our late state conventions.
1 got "Old Crow for fifteen. two for
twenty-five, shine for 10 cents and a
pleasant smile from every business man, no
matter whether 1 bought or rubbered.
That settles It! No died-in-the-
wool Bourbon democrat, who has the
price, need stay away from Denver for
fear of being robbed. So long as he
can get "Old Grow" for "fifteen" and
two "Old Crows" for twenty-five"
there can be no lack of enthusiasm.
We take 1t that there was no watered
stock in the "Old Grow" or Judge
Howard would not have bought two.

Sugar Trust Publicity.

The Sugar trust is trying publicity in
modest doses. 1t has issued a very brief
summary of its financial condition. with
the statement that further details will be
given If they are desired by all OF the
stockholders. eff, however. the agitation
with regard to publicity should result in a
law specifying what information shall be
given to stockholders the directors declare
they will promptly comply with it." Here
is evidence of a remarkable change of
heart on the part Of the trust. 1t will obey
the law hereafter. That is more than it
has done in the past for 1t refused to the
state of Massachusetts and to the United
States census tnsormation required by the
state and federal lasJs, respectively.
