THE INSURGENT ATTITUDE,
Senator Aldrich is very fertile in
his insinuatlons against other sena-
tors, in that, in opposing his tariff
BILL they use the same arguments
that the Democrats GO. He says, no
doubt, what is true. But what the
senator affirmed some weeks ago. as
to the governmen spending $5O0O0,-
900 more than was really necessary,
last year, is very apt to be used by
the Democrats at the next congress
sional election; and Vt will not be to
the dlscredlt of Senator Aldrich If
they do.
1T is always best for person to say
the truth without trying to make his
utterance conform TO some partisan
attitude. Frankness is one of the
best of human traits, and no evil can
come from it, in the political field
especially, when injustice and deceit
are one. In a republic where an are
interested in the same success aud
suffer from the same failure, we
have no business to be false to one
another There is no honor or man
liness in dividing politically unless
It is for truths sake, and when a
man does so on any other score, he
is. a mighty poor Republican or DEM
ocrat.
If the insurgents used Democratic
arguments (which, as a matter Of
fact, they didn't let the arguments
be answered, not the insurgents
blamed; and If they are answered,
let the committee prevail, and II not,
let it subside There is no good pol
itics in a tariff that puts party in
place OF principle 20, s. Journal

His Address on the Unvailing of a
Memorial to Its Founder.

Washington. July 3.-Declarlng that
unlike the "Pretorian guard of-Rome.
the men who made up the union forces
during the civil war were in favor of
free institutions, they fought for them
and did not intend to sacrifice them
to anything else" President Taft to-
day, as the principal speaker at the
unveiling of a memorial to DR.. Ben
jamin Franklin Stephenson. founder Of
the Grand Army of the Republic, paid
a glowing tribute to that organization.
He said in part: "The Grand Army
of the Republic knows no limitation
but service to the government; there
fore. congress. recognizing the useful
ness of such an organization in pre-
serving patriotism, properly contrib
uted $40, 900 to this memorial and rec
ognized the Grand Army of the Re

HENEY
IN AUTO ACCIDENT
HIS NARROW ESCAPE FROM
DEATH.
Two Companions Pinioned Under Ov-
erturned Machine.

Castle Rock, Wash, July 3.-FTan-
els J. Heney and party, consisting of
former United States Senator F. w.
Mulkey of Portland and DR.. o. S.
Beasley, Jesse Mclaughlin, the chauf-
feur. and John Mccarthy, a private
detective of San Francisco. had an
almost miraculous escape from death
today when the heavy touring car
in which they were going from Port
land to Seattle overturned on a sharp
curve a mile and a half north of here.
Heney and Mulkey jumped from
the machine and escaped without in
jury. Finding they were unable to
release their companions, Heney and
Mulkey started back to Castle Rock
for aid.
On the way they met parties of
picknickers whom they sent to the
scene of the accident. They contin-
ued on to this place. where more help
and physicians were secured. With
the help of about twenty men the
machine was lifted off the pinioned
men. When DIR. Beasley was re-
leased he was unconscious. They
found him suffering from bruises and
scratches. Mccarthy was seriously
burned from inhaling escaping steam
from the boiler of the automobile.
The chauffeur escaped with a sprain
ed ankle.

BOTH FACTIONS
TURNED DOWN
OF THE WASHINGTON WARRINe
SUFFRAGIsTS.
The National Association Asserts Its
Authority.

Seattle, Wash, July 3.-The fight
between factions of the Washington
Equal Suffrage Association was dis
cussed on the floor of the national con-
vention this afternoon and it was de-
cided unanimously to unseat all OF the
Washington delegates. The national
executive committee, to which the un-
seated Spokane delegates appealed,
tried for three days to effect a com
promise between the factions and fail
ing referred the contest to the con-
vention. During the debate this after
noon a Washington delegate declared
that the national convention should
mind its own business, and that woman
suffrage had been lost in oregon
through its interference.
National President Anna Shaw broke
into the debate to say that the national
body had jurisdiction. She protested
against the insults offered by those
who denied such jurisdiction"
The vote that unseated all the COM
batants was then taken. The state of
Washington now has no vote in the
convention and the regulars control the
state organization, but under the CEN
sure of the national body.

VERY LITTLE OPPOSITION
Only Change Made Was in
an Amendment Giving
Offending Countries 90
Days Notice of Applica-
tion of Maximum Rate.
- ExE,g!szAEz

Washington, July 3.-The maximum
and minimum provision of the tariff
bill was adopted by the senate today
by a vote of SO to 1S Mr.. Hepburn
offered and Mr.. Aldrich accepted a
finance committee amendment re-
quiring ninety days notice for the
application for the maximum rate
after the minimum rate has been in
force.
In presenting the amendment, Mr..
Hepburn expressed apprehension that
as il stood the provision would cause
unrest. This criticism brought Mr..
Aldrich to his feet with a recital of
the Determinations that had been
practiced by foreign governments
against the United States. France,
he said, had imposed her maximum
tariff against the United States and
no one else. Germany had imposed
various restrictions upon American
meats and other products. About a
dozen other nations had maximum
and minimum laws. 1t was to protect
American producers of farm and
other products that this provision
had been framed.
Senator Bacon, approving the idea
of the retaliatOry provision said he
thought the method employed should
be reversed. The duties should be
fixed, he said, with the power of
president to increase a rate if
country Disseminated against us Mr.
CTmmins suggested a substitute fix
ing a penalty of % per cent of the
existing duty instead of 25 per cent
ad valOrem on countries discriminat-
ing against the United States. 1t was
voted down viva voce.
The vote being taken on the maxi
mum and minimum proposition it was
adopted.
The senate also agreed to vote on
the submission of an income tax
to the constitution to the
several states for ratification, this
vote to be taken next Monday at L
O'Clock

Which Led to a Report
That the Secretary of the
TT e a sury Department
Was Without the Sympa
thy of President Taft.

Washington. d. c., July 3.-Steps
were taken today to correct the i'm
preston that d conflict has arisen be
tween President Taft and Secretary
MacVeagh of the treasury department
over the efforts to adopt an amend
ment to the tariff bill revising the law
relating to the manufacture and sale
of oleomargarine.
The seeming conflict was provoked
by a misinterpretation of the statement
of Representative Tawney of Mime
sofa, following a conference he had
with the president The secretary Of
the treasury was reported to be In IA
vor of putting a flat tax of 2 cents a
pound on all sorts of "Oleo" in place
of a tax of Il of cent a pound for
the uncolored product and 10 cents a
pound for the colored.
Because of the activity of treasury
department officials, the impression
prevailed that the suggested change
had the support of the administration
and Mr.. Tawney sought to make IT
clear that the president had not en-
dorsed the proposition.
In an interview today Mr.. Tawney
said:
ITO the representatives Of the' press
whom 1 saw | merely said / was au-
thorized by the president to say that
this oleomargarine legislation is not an
administration measure, but purely
treasury department measure"

of the Explosion of the
Balloons Gas Bag.

Redding, Cal, July 3.-In the pres

the dirigible balloon America exploded
at the local recreation Park this
afternoon, fatally injuring Captain
Moore, the aeronaut and Milton My
gait. a bystander Several spectators
We're knocked down and seriously
hurt as the immense crowd made a
rush to get away from the scene of
the accident.
Moore has a broken pelvis a frac-
tured right hip and right arm and
two-thirds of the surface Of his body
is frightfully burned. Mygatt, who
is eighty years old, was thrown 10
the ground with such force by the
explosion that he sustained a frac-
tured hip. Neither man is expected
to recover.
Captain Moore was making the first
of three ascensions he contracted to
make here. Attached to the huge
gas bag was a small basket like
framework carrying a small engine
which furnished power for the pro-
peller.
The dirigible was about fifty feet
from the ground, and Captain Moore
had just exclaimed, Here goes for
a successful flight or a trip to hell
when the revolving propeller caught
in the bag and tore a huge hole in
the covering from which volumes of
gas poured out. The aeronaut quick
" realized the danger, but before he
could stop the engine or drop out of
the basket, the gas ignited from the
motor sparker There was a flash
and a roar. the force of which threw
many people to the ground.
The crowd became panic striken
and trampled a number of people
under their feet.
Moore and Mygatt were hurried TO
the St. Caroline hospital. On ac-
count of his age and feebleness the
latter is not expected to survive,
while Captain Moore was so seriously
burned that little hope is held out by
the physicians. The aeronaut is from
Los Angeles, where his family reside.
