Political Comment.

Commenting Mr.. Bryan's re.
cent address TO the farmers. the
Kansas City Star, a strong Taft
organ, says:
''lf the farmers had had their
share in the making of the laws
in the last half of century there
would be more equitable eco
monte system in this country. The
tariff question would have been
solved long ago. for the farmers,
being both producers and con
sumerS, have a very good point of
view-or should have-on the
subject. If they had a CONTROL
ing voice in the making of the
tariff. it would he impossible for
I the makers of agricultural infple
mentS. for example. to exact of
them from 20 TO 30 per cent. more
for implements than these same
manufacturers receive in foreign
countries. 1t would be impossi-
Die for packing trust to force
down the prices of cattle and
hogs, and at the same time force
up the prices of meats. And
what may be said of the farmers
maybe said of other prod icing and
consuming classes. They all
need better represent alton in
Congress. The lawyers, W b o
have acquired the habi: of attor.
neyship by virtue of their profes.
sion. have had too much to do
with the economic policies in this
country, many of which have been
adopted with especial reference
to limited but potential interests
OF the public at large.

A tax upon consumption, even
when laid with absolute impair
tiality, bears heaviest upon the
poor, because our necessities are
much more uniform than our pos
sessions. People do not eat in
proportion to their income; they do
not wear clothing in proportion
to their income; they do not use
taxed goods in proportion to their
incomes. AS all taxes must come
out of ones income, no matter
through what system levied or
collected they are, in effect, in
come taxes, and taxes on con-
sumption are really graduated in
come taxes, the largest per cent.
being collected from those with
the smallest income and the
smallest per cent. from those
with the largest income. 1t is
only fair, therefore, that in an at
tempt to relieve the people from
the iniquities of a high tariff, the
poor, who are overburdened,
should be given first considera-
ton. -Brya MS Tariff Speech

The Labor Question in Pol
itics.

The Washington correspondent
for the Louisville Courier jour
nal sends to his paper the follow
ing: samuel Gompers. Presi
dent of the American Federation
of Labor, is busy man these
days at the headquarters of the
organization. Many important
conferences are being held this
week upon matters affecting the
welfare OF the vast army of its
members. Asis generally known
the Federation people have few
scores to settle politically this
year with the candidates who
they claim are the foes of organ
lied labor, and it is noteworthy
fact that with scarcely an excep
ton. these foes are Republicans.
Mr. Gompers is beginning to re-
ceive letters from all of the indus
trial centers regarding his recent
editorial in which he advised
laboring men TO oppose Judge
Taft and to support Mr.. Bryan on
the ground that the Democrats
have shown that they are more
friendly to the laboring men than
the Republicans in the demands
that they have been making be
fore Congress and the courts of
the country. As soon as the pur-
port of that editorial was sent
out the head of the Federation
received kilograms of approval
from most of the largest cities,
but now the letters are rolling
in The FederatiOnist, organ OF
the organization, has been read
and the position of Mr.. GOmpers
has been thoroughly discussed il
tue local unions all over the
country. Some of the strongest
Endorsements that have been
given him are in Chicago. His
advice from that big city are tt
the effect that in the meetings o
the largest unions there is hardly
d ssenting voice. This infOr
nation quite naturally causes Mr.
Gompers to feel elated and h'
evidently does not appear to b.
the least disturbed over reports
which have appeared in numer
Gus Republican papers to thu
effect that organized labor will
condemn him for the stand tina
ae has taken in the great con
, test"

Mission at St. Johns Church.

The mission at st. Johns
Catholic Church, this city, was
concluded on Sunday evening
last, the Goth inst, by the Paul
ist Fathers of New York. The
attendance was large, and the
ceremonies most elaborate. The
talented Paulists fully demon
strated their characteristics as
eloquent expounders of the Cath
Ollie doctrines, and the large at
tendance gave assurance of their
good work.
The societies connected with
the church in full regalia, pre-
sented a most impressive appear
ance. The sermon preached on
Sunday evening was master
plea Of oratory, and clearly
placed the speaker in the front
ranks of the Catholic mission
aries. Fathers Burke and Cronin
are much sought after by the
Catholic parishes TO give mis-
sions as their mode of instruction,
and their sermons have wide
spread reputation. Father Kane,
the pastor OF st. Johns, was un-
firing in his efforts. to make the
mission a success, aud was ably
assisted by his youthful curate,
Father Conlon, and to see the
hundreds of communicates, no
doubt was a gratifying sight in
return for their arduous labors.

Calamity Howling Will Not do.

The Indianapolis News grows
wrathy over the Republican init
nations chat the people will be
duly warned of the. disaster which
would follow the election of Bry-

calamity bowling:
The country is in no mood to
stand calamity bowlers Think
of the proposition-leaders of the
Republican party. the party that
has had uninterrupted control for
twelve years, getting up in the
midst of panic that has been
pinching now for nearly year and
telling the people that if they
elect tue Democrats disaster will
overcome"
The NGwS states the case point
edly aud forcibly. Not only is
the country in no mood to stand
calamity howlers, but the Repub
lican party is in no position to
conduct calamity bowling cam
palgn.
Only recently sagging of the
Wall street market was attributed
TO the fear of Democratic success.

HagerStown's Water Famine

Hagerstown is now experiencing
the worst water famine in its his.
tory. There is but very little
water flowing into the reservoir
at the foot of South Mountain
owing to the continued drouth.
Water is being pumped into the
city mains from Antietam Creek,
and although the pumps are being
continuously operated. it seems
impossible TO increase the stor-
age reservoir, west of Hagers-
town,
Officials of the Washington
County Water Company estimate
that they lost about $4,000, 600
gallons as result OF the recent
breaks in the two mountain res
ervoirs. La addition, probably
20, 900, 600 gallons more of water
was lost while the repairs were
being made. Hagerstown's daily
consumption is about 1000, 600
gallons.
