kEh1ucKY,s TOBACCO WAR.

We are told that the war is over III
Kentucky, that an agreement has been
reached by the high contracting par
ties, and the night riders will no more
roam the land. One of the latest re-
ports was that this week the riders
have been riding again. Monday night
they rode into Birmingham. Marshall
county, and Brooksvile, Bracken county
Az Birmingham, they shot an aged ne
gro. his wife, his three children and
grandchild; it is thought the grand
child and grandfather will die. They
fired into other cabins, wounding In
mates, and whipped a number of black
men Commercially" At Brooksville
they contented themselves with burn
;n,- 40 900 hounds of non union tobac
co. In the small hours of "Wednesday
they rode again; it was New Liberty,
owen county, that received their visit.
They burned two tobacco barns, con-
tanning about 10000 pounds of the nom
union product They shattered num-
her of store windows and dwelling
house windows with bullets, but. APP
parently, did not shoot to kill.
While these citizens of Kentucky
an end to what they considered an out
rage on the part Of the tobacco trust,
and while they may now claim that
they have won out, they have little or
no idea Of the irreparable damage to
th, fair fame of the commonwealth OF
Kentucky this campaign of the night
riders has caused. Here is a state al
most a paradise in soil, climate and all
that goes to make life worth living.
1--WE are class of citizens who be-
lieve in taking mob law measures to
carry out our ends. We are willing to
kill, burn and terrorize to try to in
crease the value of our soil products.
The laws were made for ordinary az
fairs. Our demands can only be en-
forced by the bullet, the loren ana tne
whip" And the world heard and saw
all this. Would-be citizens stop short
or travel further Land investors do
not invest in state where a crop Is
permitted or prevented by a mob. Peo-
pie of wealth do not seek OR make
homes where the incendiary destroys,
with the connivance Of leading citi-
zens." Business men do not seek places
for new enterprises where bullets
smash windows. Missouri harbored
and sentimentally encouraged the
James and Younger brothers for sew
eral years. 1t will be many generations
before they fully recover from the adj
vertisement they gave to the world.
Other dark spots blemish the face Of
Kentucky, but none so black as that of
the night riders. Might riders" and
"Ku Klux Klans" are now synonymous

Topics of the Times

That which seems to annoy whole
lot Of politicians more than anything
else is the thought that possibly or
some how President Roosevelt may be
reelected. They are so nervous over it
that they are ready to all but insult the
president when the matter is suggested.
Down in the vicinity of Des Moines
there is evidence of a new outbreak of
anti Cumminsism due to announcement
that Captain Hull is not going to be
permitted to remain in congress until
the Des Moines river is made
navlgable. This latter has been
very dear to the heart of the
doughty captain and 1t is prom
Used that if he is left in congress long
enough he will at least get the river
surveyed. But the moment it is sug-
gested that somebody else may be COM
petent to represent the republicans of
the capital district there is immediate
onslaught on the governor Of Iowa. AS
a matter of fact the governor of Iowa
troll the voters of the Seventh district.
There is nothing seriously wrong in
giving the voters a chance to decide
between good men.
Some Of the standpatters would like
to become forgetters. In fact forgetters

Not Her Choosing.

The following conversation was heard
at a breakfast table between a moth

The mother in question was repri-

"You never heard me speak in such
a disrespectful tone Of your father?"
she continued.

TARIFF AND TRUSTS.

(Webster City Freeman Tribune)
If we had full and free competition,
it would make no difference how high
the tariff might be, as competition
would insure fair prices and prevent
extortion. Let the tariff be placed at
the point of protection-recognizin
the difference in the cost of produce
ton in this and other countries-then
if the manufacturers undertake to de-
mand unjust tribute from the con-
suner he will invite foreign COMPETE
ton. If he proceeds fairly he will have
ample protection, but when he under
takes to reap unjust advantage from
the policy of protection which the peo-
pie Of this country are ready to grant
him, he is violating their confidence.

The supreme court has held that a
federal court has right to pass upon
the reasonableness of railroad rates
established by state commissions. We
have never doubted that such would
he the view taken by the court. 1t
does not follow, however, that the fed
eral courts will hold rates unreason-
able upon the mere allegation OF
railroad company. Whether rate is
contiscatory or not, can be determined
only upon the facts bearing on the
case; and the burden of proof will be
on every railroad which goes into
court.

A TIMELY INQUIRY.
(Scranton Journal.)

Will some of Senator Allison's sup
porters please inform the public thru
the columns of The Journal how the
senator stands on our statewide pri-
mary law? The law compelling the
railroads within the state to carry pas
sengers at a rate of two cents a mile?
And the law abolishing the free rail-
road passes within the state? These are
important questions and it is the peo-
pies right to know how every public
servant stands in regard to those
measures.

Professor Zueblin, glancing around
to see where the money would do the
most good, comes to bat with sug-
gestion that We pension the mothers
of the land.
There is an idea that may meet with
the approval Of all, nor should those
who fear pGternalism is a slow kind of
poison raise a howl that could be heard
block away, as the measure would
be strictly maternal In its nature.
Mother would certainly know what
to do with the money, and father
would star, around on pay day as po-
lite and attentive as book agent who
is explaining the latest things In liter
ature to a milliOnairess
To the members of the family it
would be like having money in the
bank. They would always know where
they could borrow a quarter while
mother had money. On the whole, it
looks like a good thing. Let US plug
