EDITOR dRISSELL's OPINION

Editor Grissell, of The Gurhrian, over
at Guthrie Center has the following con
corning congressional matters in this
district:
" A few of our editorial brethren who
are postmasters are working themselves
into hysterical frenzy over the con
gressional situation in this district. Are
accusing the progressive republicans
with the intention to defeat Judge Smith
in the primary and if failing there to
accomplish it to defeat him at the polls
The only active opposition to the renomi-
nation of Judge Smith in the district
comes from a standpat newspaper pub
lished in u standpat county If there is
opposition to Judge Smith in the pri-
mary it can he laid to the standpatters
and not the progressive republicans. As
to Hepburnizing Judge Smith mt the
polls is another case of The guilty flee
where no man pursueth. Having set
the example of boiling they naturally
conclude that it will be followed by the
progressives

DEMOCRATIC VIEW OF TARIFF

William f. Curtis, the great CORES
pondent of The Chicago Record Herald,
who by the way is democrat and free
trader expresses the following opinion of
the Payne tariff law;
The more the new law is examined,
and the officials of the customs division
have been subjecting it TO thorough
analysis, the more evidence they discov,
er that the revision was downward rath.
er than upward While the duties ON
many articles was increased the duties
on many more We're decreased Ii is
undoubtedly the most consistent and
scientific tariff law that has ever been
enacted. Ii contains no oddities or eccen-
tricities and thus far no serious errors
have been found
