I'M HILLS WARNING.

When men like James ]. Hill stop
10 warn the administration that
something is going to happen unless
the campaign pledges are redeemed
IN regard to a genuine revision of the
tariff. there should be some reason
able expectation that the stand
patters in congress will give heed.
Mr.. Hill has given long years of
intimate study TO the question, and
bis, opinion is backed up by a vast
amount OF practical experience. His
advice is. therefore, entitled to
special weight
In the course of a recent inter-
view he says:
The people throughout the country
feel that something has been prom
ised 10 them in the way OF tariff re-
vision. said Mr.. Hill. and they want
10 get It. Both parties placed pledges
IN their national platforms TO revise
the tariff. The task has been entrust-
ed TO one party. but IL II falls, in my
opinion. the duty OF tariff revision
win then be given to those who are
unfriendly 10 the protective policy.
Party lines have never been so near
" obliterated as at present With
this condition. a party cannot afford
70 disregard the demands upon IT,
1 have no special interest In this tar
III bill But I have an interest In
the prosperity OF the country. We are
tired OF conditions that have existed
for the last two years We want to
get the business OF the country on
a sound basis. To do that We need to
get the tariff question out of the
way.
Mr.. Carnegie and Mr.. Hill are sub
stantially in accord on this question,
and so are a number of other leading
business men who view the tariff as
a business proposition without in
dulging I'm any balderdash about
infant industries.

Al HFRMTT'S RETURN.

Albert Courtney. a British sub
1ect and a mining prospector, has
just returned TO civilization after
burying himself for fifteen years in
the California desert, where he has
not even seen a book or a newspa-
per during all that interval.
He did not even know that Queen
Victoria was dead, and his first
question was as to the health of her
late royal highness.
He was greatly distressed to
know That the venerable lady was
no more. but the news of the out
come OF the Boer war, which was
represented to him as a victory, re-
vived his dropping spirits.
He was ignorant of the fact that
Theodore Roosevelt had ever been
president of the United Statesl
he has missed much, but perhaps
MS interval of retirement has fits
compensation after all. He has
missed some of the amusement in
but he has also escaped some Of the
chagrin, at least if he takes a SYM
pathetic interest in American af-
fairs. Not to have followed the
growth and progress of the Anan-
las club was to have missed half
the pleasure OF living during the
past fifteen years, but at the same
time he has escaped the contempla-
ton OF a revival OF the star cham
Der regulations, under which news
papers in this enlightened twentieth
century are prosecuted. 1t is hoped
that even now no one will give him
a fun account OF all that has taken
place during the ascendency of
Rooseveltism.
he comes to life just in time to
enjoy the little international drama
in which Castro is taking a conspic-
nous part. He will have the pleas
ure OF observing the venezuelan's
observance OF the injunction TO get
on the earth"
Nor will he miss the aftermath
OF Roosevelt. He will have an op-
portunity to read the mastery arti-
cIes OF Roosevelt, in which he de-
scrfbes his Tratarin experiences
hunting lions in Africa. To be able
10 drink from those wells of English
indebted and to revel in the excit-
ing adventures Of the great Taras-
CONAN will be compensation suf-
ficient for all the famished years
he has passed in the desert, and If
ne is in good health he may be able
to witness the opening of the Pan
anna canal.
He has at least returned in ample
time.

Golfers weekly.

From a resident of Georgia, who calls
himself a Cleveland Democrat" comes
a letter which describes a state Of
strenuous confusion among those with
whom he talks politics in the evenings
The point OF the letter is in the last
sentence:
Now we have received or read let
tiers, both private and published, from
the interested parties on both sides Of
this matter, and have read considerable
in the papers here. Now will Golfers
kindly settle for us the moral and po-
litical status OF the twenty-three Dem
ocrats OIL use the Professionally until
you confirm it or give US another-who
came to the rescue OF Joe Cannon and
saved him from a thorough licking IN
the tight on the rules the other dsyr'
1t would be simple to lump the entire
twenty-three in one broad maleoiction
OF undesirability, as the rest of the
Democrats in congress have done, but
that is too inexact TO be wholly just.
There is no essential turpitude in their
act of itself; breaking away from party
lines is not necessarily a thing to be
conference.-the is often a public virtue.
The thing is to be judged by it's intend
ed results, and even more by it's motive;
and in motive these twenty-three differ
ed widely. They have said, in their own
behalf, that as Democratic insurgents
their status is the same as the Republi-
can Insurgents, who have been praised
That point Of view involves lack OF dis
elimination. The insurgent Republicans
broke away from their party to vote for
a progressive measure, at certain cost
to themselves Of every favor that Cam
non has to bestow and under penalty
of his resentment; these twenty-three
Democrats seeded in order to vote
against a progressive measure-and
there was no spirit of self-sacrifce IVA
their detection; they steered their
course in the direction where prohe lies.
and some of them have already had
their rewards.-Mark Sullivan in Col
Ier's Easter Number.

NATIONAL CAPITAL NEWS AND GOSSIP
By Ralph Smith

WASHINGTON, d. c., April 1.-THE
Ninth districts representative in the
national house is Thomas M. Bell, Of
statesman, was a drummer. He has
served through two congresses. and is
now the party whip, having been first
appointed by John gSharp Williams ana
later by Champ Clark.
MIR. Bell tells of himself as follows:
Thomas Montgomery Bell, Democrat,
of Gainesville, was born in Nacoochee
Valley, White county, Ca. March IT,,
1861; was educated in the common
schools of the country and the Southern
Business college, Atlanta, Ga. was con-
! nected for many years with some of the
largest wholesale business houses in At
lanta, Ga, and Baltimore, Md; was cleo
ted clerk of the superior court of Hall
county in 1898, and reelected in 1900 and
1902 without opposition; was elected to
the ffty-ninth and sixtieth congresses,
and reelected to the sixty-first congress,
receiving 1853 votes"
/ The Telegram That Came Too Late
| There is in Washington a certain Dem
ocratic representative-and he is nol
! a Georgian-who voted for a duty OF
/ hosiery and lumber because he believed
that in doing so he was rejecting the
sentiment of his constituents. He had
good reasons for the superstition. During
the tendency of the bill in the house he
I was deluged with letters and kilograms
urging him to oppose free lumber and
hosiery. In many instances, he received
kilograms signed by a score or more per-
lsons-telegraphic petitions indeed.
On the day that the house voted on the
| lumber schedule this particular repre-
sentative received a lengthy telegram
| signed by dozen or more prominent cit
liens of his district. They insisted that
lumber be NOT placed on the free list.
An hour later. the vote came off, and
this particular representative voted
against free lumber thinking of course
he had pleased many of his constituents
certainly all of those who had wired him
that day.
Two hours after the vote had been TAX
| en-, and free lumber defeated here came
a telegram from one of the most promi-
nent of the signers of the lengthy wire
urging free lumber The substance of
this message was that this prominent gen.
tlefnan had signed the Geographic petition
under a misapprehension, and favored,
rather than opposed, free lumber and
cheaper hosiery
The representative could do nothing
more than telegraph this gentleman that
he had acted on his first telegram, and
was recorded against free lumber.
All of which goes to show how easily
some people are misled. In this instance
II was not the representative. OF course
he had good reasons for voting against
free lumber, reasons other than those
! cited in the several kilograms and letters,
but the man who signed the telegraphie
petition under a misapprehension, he is
the fellow who was misled.
1t has been said. you know, that nine
out of ten people will sign a petition
condemniAg each signer to life impris-
onment.

Davis Turkey Story

Charles Russell Davis a Minnesota rep
resentative, is an insurgent who insurges
ali the time. He is ''agin" Cannon and
Cannonism. Davis was disappointed over
the failure of the insurgent move against
the house rules, but the partial victory
gave him some consolation.
at recalls to me the story Of the fellow
who went turkey hunting" said Davis.
''He had walked many weary miles look
ing for turkey, and dusk was falling,
when he spied one roosting high up in a
very tall tree.
Although there was small chance of
bagging the game, the fellow leveled his
gun and blazed away. The shot broke
one of the turkeys wings, and down he
came, lighting on his feet. Wild turkeys
can run some, you know and the broken
wing did not hinder this one. The hunts
man chased ii until dark without success.
Just as the turkey disappeared in lot
of underbrush, the fellow, giving up the
chase, said: Dang you, you got away this
time, but you'll never roost so high again.
And so it is with Speaker Cannon and
his machine. They got away, but their
wings have been clipped and they'll never
roost so high again"

terests of her citizens abroad. II Castro's
return to Venezuela would jeopardize
American interests, then it seems that
the state department is clearly within its
rights in the matter. 1t Is claimed, OF
course, that the state department has
reasons to believe-not supposedly that
Castro intends. if he ever sets foot Ola
Venezuelan soil, to overthrow the Co
mez government, and reinstate himself.
Past performances justify the assumption
that he would trample upon the rights
Of American interests in Venezuela, II
reinstated.
The Real Question
But-and here's the question the peo-
pie are interested inflow does the state
department know that Castro has de-
signs upon the government of Venezuelan
He Is not trying to return there
as dictator, but as a private
citizen, Invested of his power and
authority He is a sick man, besides and
may be returning, or trying to return,
home to die.
1t has been stated that the state de-
partment has satisfactory proof that Cas-
tro proposes to reestablish himself In
power, II he succeeds in getting home.
In support of this, several newspaper
characterization papers, too-are cited,
In which Castro is quoted as saying that
he would Gust Gomez and again come into
his own.
These clippings are from Paris newspa-
pers, remember, and in this same con-
nection bear in mind that it was in q
Paris paper that Colonel Roosevelt was
misQuoted. Ex-President Castro may
have been misquoted just as ex-President
Roosevelt insists he was misquoted.
Thus do we see again the power of the
press exemplified.
