TAFT'S ENDORSEMENT

President Taft'S endorsement of
Senator Aldrch in his Boston speech
has excited IL good deal of adverse
comment, and is very apt to prove Il
heavy load for his party to carry in the
campaign next fall. If Aldrichism
stands for anything good for the
common people of this country, it has
yet to show itself. AS the people HOW
understand it, Aldrichism stands for
everything vicious in American politics
and it will take more than the endorse
ment of President Taft to make the
People believe otherwise. AS an indica-
ton of how widespread the opposition
TO Aldrichism is, we quote the following
from Il Pennsylvania paper;
President Taf5's addition of Aldrich
to his political luggage, to he carried
over many thousands of miles during
the next few weeks, is likely to be Il
more severe strain on the big man than
nc figured upon. 1t WAS hard enough
for him to act as apologist-in chief of
the republican party for the outrageous
tariff bill which ha, made this extraor-
binary trip necessary. By deliberately
picking up with it the Issue of Aid
richiSm, the hardship of his cndcavor
has been materially increased.
Those republicans who keep their ears
to the ground, that they may hear the
Innrmur of that public sentiment which
is most to he feared. or cOurted, of all
political forces. were hoping against
hope that Aldrich and Cannon might
not he dragged into the Arena. In
been blasted. Aldrich is decidedly in
it. Taft's ill-advised praise of the man
who has done more evil TO his country
and to his party than almost any man
now living, has raised i'm issue which
the president may live to regret with
bitterness of soul
He is going to the west, where the
name of Aldrich is abhorrcd of all clean
men, without regard to party utilization,
and he is going there with the record of
endorsing and praising Aldrich, even
after being, as the country was given
to understand, u victim of that I'M
scrupulous politician. There is only
one thing to be CLEANED from the re-
markable utterances at the Boston tea
party" That is, that Taft accepts
AldrichiSm as an intergral part of
republicanism. This simplifies matters
very much, so far as the general situa-
ton Is concerned. 1t leaves no excuse
for honest believers in honesty in
politics to linger longer in the rcpubli-
can camp. 1t removes the last vestige
of responsibility from the republican
patty, and the last shred of hope from
the hearts of those who looked for
better things from Taft

Preciala Stones in America

fTeCilId StOuSS III hmcTCd
The value of the precious stones pro-
tluced in the United States in 1903 was
%4l5, O6:, Il decrease of $56, 237 from the
value of 1907 These figures. which are
in part furnished by the producers and
in part based on estimates from the
quantity produced, are given by D. B.
Stcrrett,of the United States Geo
logical Survey, in an advance chapter
from Mineral resources of the United
States. calendar year 1908"
They are as complete as it is possible
to obtain, but there are some gems for
which no accurate figures are ut present
available. TIL, general trade depression
appears not to have affected the precious
stones industry as much as might have
been expected, and the production of
certain gems, notably turquoise and
vlriscite, was greatly increased over
that for 1907.
Turquoise and turquoise matrix
form the largest item in the list, the
production being 90. 800 pounds, with
an estimated value of $147, $50, from
Arizona. New Mexico, Nevada and
California. The 1907 value was $23,-
$40
Tourmaline was the next largest item
in point of value. the production being
$500 pounds, with an estimated value
of 800, 900, from California, Connecticut
and Maine. In 1907 the production was
2, 14O pounds. valued at SS4,1O3. The
bulk of tbs 1903 production came from
California; at Mesa Grande a perfect
tourmulinc weighing % carats after
cutting was obtained.
The third item in the list, sapphire,
showed n great decrease from 1907, the
value of 500, So as against $229,S00 in
the earlier year. The greater part of
the 1908 output came from single mine
in Fergus county, Montana, but Il small
quantity was obtained in Morgan
county. Missouri.
The production of diamonds from
Arkansas, although not a large item, is
of interest because this vas the first
locality in Nornh America where dia-
monds were foull in place. The first
diamond was discovered August 1, 1906,
about 2 1-2 miles southeast of Murfrees-
boro, Pike county, in peridotite, an
igneouf rock The production from
this locality in 1907 had an estimated
value of 81, 300. In 1908 the production
was 1862 stones, with an estimated value
of 50, 100. 1t is reported that over 700
diamonds have been found up to July 1,
1909. Three cut stones were found to
be brilliant and were valued at 500 to
$l75 per carat.
A parcel of rough, unsorted stones
from the mine will be easily worth $40
per carat. The possibilities of cheap
mining in Arkansas are great, as water
and timber are abundant near by and
coal should be obtained at reasonable
rates. Some diamonds are reported to
have been found also in newly dis
covered peridotite area about 2 1-2 miles
northeast of the original locality. ~" .-,
The imports of precious stones in
1908 were 81 per cent less than in 1907
and 90 per cent less than in 1905. The
total value of tho 1908 imports was 3d.
700, 4O4, Of which 80, 27O, 1926 was in unset
cut diamonds. 81, 635.79S in uncut dia-
monds, and 1910, 800 in pearls.

CATHOLICS INvEiGH AGAINST
INSULTING REFERENCES

London, May IA comprehensive
bill for the removal OF Roman Catho-
lie disabilities and providing for an
alteration In the accession oath taken
by the British sovereign was intro
duced by William Redmond III the
house of commons today
The Roman Catholics never have
ceased to inycigh against the insult
ing references to certain beliefs IN
the nonarh's asces sion declaration as
"superstitipus and idolatrous.' Ihe
same opposition that hitherto has de-
feated any effort to alter the oath
again showed up today, when a pcti-
ton signed by 100000 persons against
the removal of Roman Catholic dis
abilities was handed down just before
Mr.. Redmond arose. Mr. Redmond S
bill not only removes what is regard
ed as the Objectionable portion OF the
oath OF accession. but 1T repeals the
acts prohibiting residence and the ac-
uuisition of property by the JesuIts
and other monastic orders, and ap-
olishes the disqualllcations which pre-
vents Catholics from filling the Offices
of lord chancellor OF Great Britain and
lord lieutenant OF Ireland.
Premier Asguith gave his cordial
support to the bill. He declared that
the exclusion Of Roman Catholics from
the lord chancellorship and the lord
lioutenancy was quite unjustifiablc on
the grounds of logic or policy
