The Free Hides Humbug.

The truth is that the question Of
free hides is actually of very little
consequence to the country at large.
The only hides affected are those Of
cattle, and they are of value only for
making sole leather. None of the
manufacturers appear to be making
any serious objection to the duties on
other and lighter feathers used for diff
ferent parts of the shoes. And as to
the extent to which sole leather affects
the shoemaking industry it has been
shown repeatedly that the difference
in cost between shoes made from free
or taxed" hides could be at the ut
most but trifle. Men claiming to be
disinterested experts have asserted
that the greatest limit of additional
cost is about five cents per pair, and
this, IL true. shows how foolish is all
the row raised over free hides. There
are other tariff provisions of far more
consequence to the people as whole
than free hides.-Troy Times.

During President Rooseyelt's seven
years the task OF dealing with the
trusts was largely educational. 1t was
necessary, for one thing, to awaken
the people TO the need of curbing mo-
nopolies. The Sherman law was little
understood by the courts and the rail
roads and trade combinations had ig-
nored It; they had chosen, In fact, not
to read ii. A good deal of preliminary
litigation was required in order to
gain an understanding of the law and
to obtain rulings upon which further
and more effective prosecution could
be carried on. The attorney general.

Bar Association, on Friday evening,
gave the clue to the Taft campaign
With the experiences learned in the
Roosevelt administration the cases
against the trusts will be pushed where
the department of justice is sure of its
grounds. Other cases brought upon
evidence since pronounced as practices
within the law will be withdrawn
Thus the forces of the government will

of development work in many of the
mines which have been idle for a
long time, but which give promise Of
good things in the future.
All authorities on copper seem TO
agree now that the price of the red
metal will not reach lower price
than the one now prevailing and that
the outlook is good for better cop
per prices in the near future. The
surplus supply of copper has been
gradually growing less during the
last half year and at the present rate
of decrease the entire surplus stocks
win be wiped out before the end Of
this year. The present copper prod
uet is larger than it was a year ago,
but with the surplus gone it is be-
lieved that the output may be safely
increased without danger of hurting
the demand which is growing with
the increase in the industrial ffe OF
the country which is growing more
and more visible in every section.
With a good demand for copper
there win be hardly any limit to the
prosperity in Cochise county. Bisbee
will supply employment for many
more men in the mines. Douglas win
accommodate many additional en-
ployes in the smelters and at Court
land the proven mines win get into
the production game with much larg-
er forces.

TARIFF


President woodrow Wilson Of
Princeton in the North American Re
view gives a scholars analytical view
Of the tariff legislation. He calls the
Payne-Aldrich measure a make-De-
neve. He Says it is not a settlement
of the tariff question. but is INSECT
laneously wrong in detail and radical
Il wrong in principle. 1t disturbs
more than it settles. and by its very
failure to settle forces the tariff
question forward into a new and
much more acute stage.
he goes to the root OF the matter
when he says the Republican party
is old at the business of tariff max
ing and has. established a business
constituency. The business of tariff
making grows more and more com
pick. naturally comes to involve a
greater and greater complexity of in
terests.
Those who conduct it extend their
clientage from generation to gener-
alton. to make sure they have clients
enough. whatever principle may un-
derlie tariff-making and however val
id that principle may be, however
fundamental to the general develop
ment and prosperity of the country
tariff schedules arranged for protec-
tiop ara governmental favorg Those
who make them. though acting for
the nation, are the patrons of the in
slustries favored; they dispense the
Iargess of the government, and those
who receive the fayors viii be their
partisans and followers SO long as
the favors continue.
President Wilson goes on TO say,
THE relation of favor-dispensers and
partisans or followers cannot be
avoided. The only thing that can be
avoided is the corrupting influence OF
the relationship, and that can be
avoided only by very strong men. A
political party cannot Withstand 1t
for many generations together; can
not I mean. withstand the gradual
corruption of its will-the temptation
to make use of the patronage it dis
penses for the preparation OF inc
power It derives from it. the unfaii
ing support at the elections Of the
wealthiest and most influential class
