PLEAD NOT GUILTY.
Eight Young Men, Suspended From
West Point, Call on War Secretary.

Secretary of War Wright, who re-
turned to Washington Friday from
trip of inspection of the manouver
camp at Chattanooga, received call
from the eight young men who, as
cadets at the Military Academy at
West Point, have been found guilty
of hazing and sentenced to dismissal.
Mr.. Wright has. not had time to ex-
anime the report which has been
submitted to him. After: a few
minutes informal talk with the
young men, all of whom the Secretary
said subsequently impressed him as
bright, manly fellows, Secretary
Wright said:
Now, honest, boys, tell me just
what you did to get yourselves into
this scrape.
Cadet Rossell, an honor man OF
the fifth class, and son of Lieut.
Col. VIM. T. Rossell, of the engineer
corps of the army, stepped forward
as spokesman. He said perhaps he
had been more to blame than any OF
the others, but he felt that none had
committed serious offences. He eX.
planned frankly and briefly the ma
ture their haziDg of the plebes
"Bracing,'' Rossell explained, was
AN exaggerated form Of bringing g
plebe to attention. y He said tina,
all of them had been through such
an experience, which, far from be-
ing brutal or humiliating, tended te
make the right sort of men OF ca
diets.
Secretary Wright informed the
young men that he would give care
full attention to the report and take
their cases under advisement, 1ndl
eating that it might be several day
before final disposition was reached
The Court is understood to nave
been unanimous on the dlsmlssa
sentence. In the opinion of thu
war department officials. therefore
the Secretary must either approv'
the findings or set them aside al
together. The law is mandatory un
der the authorities to dismiss cadet
guilty of hazing. and 1t is not ols
cretionary with even the Secretar'
of War to minimize punishment.

SIX MEN KILLED.
By Premature Explosions Caused by
q Careless Powderman.

A premature explosion Of dyna-
mite, which occurred while work
men were preparing blast at the
improvements to the Cumberland
Valley railroad near Scotland, Md,
caused the loss of three lives and
a number of others were so serious
ly injured they may die. Malloy,
the powder man, used a long iron
bar instead of a wooden instrument
usually employed to tap the dyna-
mite in a hole drilled in a rock. The
explosion was terrific. Malloy was
killed instantly, as was Butler. Ma
loy's body was hurled high IN the
air. Loudon died in the hospital a.

were removed on special train: An
inquest will be held.

Hon. Adlaf Stevenson, Democratic
candidate for governor of Illinois,
says the present outlook reminds him
of the times when he and Grover
Cleveland swept h country for De-
mocracy. In an interview at Chicago
Thursday night Mr.. Stevenson said;
1T looks like a return of the Demo
cratic spirit of 1892 when Cleveland
was elected. Everywhere / have spo-
ken / have found Democrats formerly

the manufacturers yield to the temp
tation mentioned by MT. Taft and
combine to take advantage of the du-
ty, the onsume will be heavily tax
ed, and yet none of the money will
reach the treasury.
Is it right to tax all the people for
the benefit of a few? Where a COM
munity has attempted to collect taxes
for the aid of an industry, even when
the industry was to be located in the
community, the highest court in the
land has declared such a tax to be
larceny in the form of law. If a city
government cannot rightfully tax all
the people to bring an industry into
the city, where such benefits as are
conferred are more easily seen and
more universally enjoyed, who will
say that a farmer in the Missouri val
ley can be rightfully taxed to support
al industry in a distant state?
AS a matter of public policy, is it
wise that the industries that do pay
should be compelled to carry upon
their backs industries which, accord
ing to the arguments made by their
representatives, could not live with
out aid? Have we not seen this sys-
tenn Introducing corruption into poll

American manufactures as are sold
abroad more cheaply than at home"
At present the articles used by tle
than the articles used by the rich.
This statement can be verified by an
examination of any of the schedules.
A tax upon consumption, wen wnen
laid with absolute impartiality, bears
heaviest upon the poor, because our
necessities are much more uniform
than our possessions. People do not
eat in proportion to their income;
they do not wear clothing in proper
ton to their income; they do not use
taxed goods in proportion to their
income. As all taxes must come out
Of ones income, no matter through
what system levied or collected, they
are, in effect, income taxes, and taxes
On consumption are really graduated
income taxes, the largest percentage
being collected from those with the
smallest income, and the smallest
percentage FROM those with the larg-
est income. It is only fair, therefore,
that in ap attempt to relieve the pee-
pie from the iniquities of a high tar

should be given first consideration.
Then, too, a reduction in the tariff
on the necessities OF life brings a ZEN
ton in the tax upon Injuries would
benefit but a portion of the people.
Surely no one will object to a re-
duction being made upon articles
which come into competition with
American manufactures which are
sold abroad more cheaply than at
home. The American manufacturer
who sends his goods to foreign lands
and there, without any protection
completes successfully with
does not need a high tariff to meet
in the home market. And
there are enough articles sold abroad

Mi. Taft. however. finds the great
est alarm In the following clause In
our platform:
Gradual reductions should be |
made in such other schedules as may |
be necessary to restore the tariff to |
\ revenue basis"
He regards this threatened depart
IRE from the protective system as IA |
al. We are here brought face to face
the theoretical difference be-
.ween the positions Of the two par
les on the subject of tariff. The Dem
party regards a tariff law as
| revenue law, the protection it gives
being incidental; the Republican par-
y regards a tariff law as framed prf-
narily for protection, the revenue be-
ng Incidental. As the effect Of a Civ

Attorney General Hadley seems to

that the Federal courts are blinded
