A POLITICAL TRAP.
Gov. Draper So Styles Massachusetts,
8-Hour Law.

Marlboro, Mass, Oct. 2O.-Speaking
at well-attended Republican rally
held IN Preston hall here tonight, GOV.
Eben S. Draper stated that 'the s.
hour bill was a political measure, in
tended primarily to put me in a hole .
Gov. Draper devoted much OF his re-
marks to a re-analysis of the bill from
his point of view, bringing out it's OBJ

him for his attitude toward the S-hou1
bill should turn some of their criticism
to the Democratic candidate for lieu
tenant governor. Eugene n. Foss. He
repeated the letter which he says he
received from the B. F. Sturtevant Co.
to veto the bill
Although stating that "the question
before the voters this year is that of
electing state officers. and that the tar

THE SUNDAY BILL

: Bn1ess we are mistaken some of fhe leading pastors of this city favor 6uchs a change in the law relating to 8abbafh observance as will legalize rolf, baseball and other innocent sports not engaged in for money.
 Indeed, the state conference of min 1aterB of the Congregational church, are on record in a formal resolution 1avorne such a Liberalization of the Ruf1tan Sunday Surely such gen. tle1aen cannot honestly be. charged with desiring to favor a Continental Sunday in New England. Yet they were not opposed to the proposed bill when in set terms, it 1egalized any game or sport in all respects lawful ion other days of the week and which did not disturb public wo hip, or the Dub1ic peace or trepass Upon private x1xhts, providing that no compensa- t1on was paid to the persons parti- c1patfng in such games and that no admisston fee was charged for viewing such amusements.
 How much less then, will laymen, md thoughtful clerics, who have u1ax1red the desire of the people to enjoy Sunday in innocent out door omuseu1ent, object to the bill which hao passed the house and senate, and which now awaits the signature of the GQyeFnor.
 m fhfs bill the civil Sunday as dis <L1ct from the religious Sunday is Ne- med This is certainly good. The on1y objection that has been made to <6e bfu is to the concluding words or secfton 1, which permit persons Co engaEe in work, or sport, ''neces- r&xV to the general welfare of the I&0mumnity.''

Exit the Dingley tariff, the highest in the history of the country, and enter the Payne tariff which may be found,
 upon close analysis, to stand second in altitude. It contains a few repeals and decreases, but as the Senate passed S47 amendments which were mostly in- creases over the House rates. the aver age result is probably an increase.
 President Taft calls it "a sincere eff fort' to fulfil campaign pledges of a revision downward. If Senator AL drich who revised the House bill up ward, and if Speaker Cannon who packed the House conference commit tee against revision downward, sin cerely endeavored to revise the duties downward, a new definition for ''sin- cerity' must be found. The few de- creases and repeals which appear in the completed bill, were literally forced from the conference committee by the Presidents influence and MT. Payne's obstinacy.
 The Middle West does not consider the bill a satisfactory fulfilment of pledges. When Mfnnesota's two Sem ators and eight of it's nine members of the House voted against the tariff conference report, they voiced such an opinion most unmistakably, and mem bers of both houses from other Mid- West States gave the same opinion in the same practical way.
 But whatever the real character of the new tariff, it has become the law and we shall soon know whether conn plete industrial revival has been mere ly awaiting final action upon the mat ter. It is an unquestionable fact that certainty as to tariff duties has suc- ceeded uncertainty. and that manufac- turing interests may now proceed with Nut hesitation over an uncertain fu- ture. The people may also begin to figure upon ways and means of meet ing an increased cost of living.
