DEND 'IitCN'S LAST TARIFF
FLANK.

In yiea OF discussions now on and
to SHOW Just where We are at It
might be- we'll to read and study the
tariff: plank of the national platform
OF the democratic party, adopted at
Denver, Colo. July 10, 1908:
"Tariff--We welcome tho belated
promise OF tariff reform now affect
ed by the republican party in tsrdy
recognition of the Righteousness of
the democratic position on the
question. hut the people can not
safely trust the execution of this
important work to a party which is
so deeply obligated to the highly
protected interests as is the republic
can party. We call attention 10 the
significant fact that the promised
relief was postponed until after the
coming elcCtion-an election to sue
coed in which the republican party
must have that same support from
the beneficiaries of the high protec-
live idlill as II uds diNdSS Eti GU
fore received from them; and the
further fact that during years of
uninterrupted power no action what
ever has been taken by the repub-
lican congress to correct the admit
tedly existing tariff iniquities
I'VE favor immediate revision of
the tariff by the reduction of import
duties. Articles entering into COM
petition with trust-controlled prod
ucts should be placed upon the free
list, and material reductions shall
be made in the tariff upon the neces-
saries of life especially upon articles
competing with such American man
ufactures as are sold abroad more
cheaply than at home, and graduated
reductions should be made in such
other schedules as may be necessary
to restore the tariff to revenue
basis.
Existing duties have given to
the manufacturers of paper shell
ter behind which they have organ
lied combinations to raise the price
of pulp and of print paper, thus i'm
posing a tax upon the spread of
knowledge. We demand the imme
date repeal of the tariff on pulp,
print paper, lumber, timber and
logs, and that these articles be plac-
ed on the free list"

ALCOHOL FROM WOOD CHIPS.
ChiCagoans Manufacture Pure Srir-
its from SawdusI.

It's from SaWuuSi.
Surprising in actual material i'm o
Iportance to humanity even the filt-
! ing of the North Pole is the discpv.
! cry announced by two Chicago men
of process for manufacturing the
| highest grade of alcohol from saw
dust and lumber waste. The triumph
| has been achieved after five years
! of incessant labor by Malcolm F.
! Even and George II. Tomlinson, en-
gineers.
| Their process is not merely the
oretical. A big plant already has been
| constructed near Chicago, patents
have been obtained and the scien-
tific world has Joined with capital
| lists in hailing the innovation as a
fact which will in time make it pos
sible to operate with alcohol any
thing that runs with an engine.
| Nor is the product wood alcohol
as the manner of its making might
| indicate. 1t is GAINED for it that 1t
! is superior to grain alcohol.
The new alcohol will not only en-
| ter the field as a lower-priced com
| petitor against the costly grain al
cohol for use in liquors and wines,
| but it will also, according to those
who have studied the situation, be-
come a competitor of coal, wood
gasoline and kerosene for fuel and
of kerosene for illuminating purpos
es, AS against a cost for manufac-
ture of grain alcohol of approximate
| " 35 cents a gallon, the cost of the
sawdust alcohol is approximately Z
cents gallon.
One of the important features Of
the perfecting of the new process
will be that annually millions OF
! bushels of corn and barley, now
/ used in the manufacture of grain
| alcohol will be released for food
purposes. The new process will thus
laid to the worlds food supply.
The present consumption OF alco-
/ y
iplaced at 1926, 100000 gallons at 100
proof. The value of this output is
iabout $4,000, 1000, The consump-
ton of alcohol in the world annually
! is placed at approximately 1,000,-
! 00O,0O gallons at 100 proof. This
represents about $1,000, 100000.
! Not only is sawdust used for the
/ making of the new alcohol, but all
manner of lumber mill refuse is also
utilized. Shavings, slabs, edgings
and all kinds of odds and ends of
lumber are thrown into the machin-
cry TO issue from the process as pure
alcohol The cost of the raw material
/ TO the manufacturers of this alco-
| hol VIII average about 20 cents per
ton. Twenty-Five gallons Of alcohol
can be made from one dry ton OF
sawdust.
The process of turning sawdust
and mill refuse into alcohol consists,
briefly, in placing the raw material
in a large metal revolving drum.
Here it Is treated under steam pres
sure for a short time, in the presence
of a small quantity of acid. portion
of the wood Is thus converted Into
glucose The glucose is then fermeDt-
ed and distilled into alcohol.-Chi-
cago Examiner.

We know that in Texas in that
year republican was elected from
the San Antonio district and that
the free wool provision of the Wilson
bill was responsible for it. Two years
later, the democracy of that district
pledged its nominee to tax on wool
and the democrats TegaiDeJ the dis
trict.--Houston Post. And those
wool growers were protectionists,
straight from the shoulder They
were not thinking or dreaming
about a tariff for revenue. They
wanted a protective tariff on wool,
one SO high that all competition
would be destroyed. This is the d.
rection In which Senator Bailey and
his followers are headed, and II Is
useless for them 10 attempt a denial.
The Waxahachie daily light. [volume] (Waxahachie, Tex.) 1894-current, 1909-09-24

The BRENNAN News says: IF SEN
ator Bailey's lead is to be followed
the democratic party must forsake
its position as a representative Of the
interests of the people and become
the representative of the interests
of the few; it must repudiate its an
cient teaching of the greatest good
to the greatest number and must
substitute therefor the greatest
good to the favored few it must
relinquish its claim as the champion
of tariff for revenue only and
espouse the cause of protection; 1t
must cease to stand for a principle
OF right and adopt in It's stead pol
icy OF individual self-interest."

The Retail Merchants Association,
in appointing committee TO inves-
tigate advertising propositions that
may be offered, has acted with great
wisdom. Advertising is the life of
every business, but patronizing fake
propositions is money thrown away.
WaNahachie business men are be-
Hevers in advertising and liberal in
their patronage and for this reason
this city has been a fayorite field
for the operation of "fakirs."

ment in this city. The play is adapted
from the popular novel of the same

local theatregoers will see the same
players that made such favorable
impression and attracted so much
attention in .Iew York and Chicago.
'Graustark" proved to be the SEN

sented in Pittsburg a year ago, and
IS today the most talked of play on
the American stage.

A law or attempted law may be absurd
but harmless. but when, as is often the
case, a law is aimed at one business CT
corporation. or is possibly intended to
crush one individual, IT may be the re-
verse of humorous. The Register, in

all aimed at some Individual. and It Is

Yes. It is strange. but not more so than
