NO DEFENSE BY
REPUBLICAN PRESS

If there are any Republican news
papers supporting the attempt OF
Payne and Aldrich to revise the tar
if upwards they are not amongst our
exchanges. Some of them avoid the
Issue and others make 1t evident that
they want revision downwards. The
Akron Beacon journal says:
Il is said that Senator Aldrich as
serts it seems impossible for him to
get up a tariff hill that is entirely sat
isfactory to HIM. or course the
fact that he is not getting up one
that is satisfactory to the people
does not matter to him.
The Ohio State Journal whacks the
high tarif monopolists daily. Here
is a little thrust amongst many:
AS the time gradually draws near
when the Aldrich bill will be put up
to President Taft, the ultimately con-
suming public confidently hopes that
he is a humble puppy only as re-.
CARDS golf.
The Urbana Times Citizen says
Yes, there IS undoubtedly big
fight coming on the tariff 1t is the
old fight of the rich against the
poor and the former winning in the
beginning. The poor man never
really wins bu: sometimes he does
get some surcease OF sorrow by a
lightning of the load. 1t never
comes though Until hard battle has
been fought and won.
And so they run. Sometimes a
Republican editor ventures to make a
sly dig at those Dmocrats in Con-
gross who are asking for protection
for Sea Island cotton and lumber and
wool and sugar and other commodi-
ties but there is no defense OF the
165 per cent. tariffs on woolens and
other goods

TARIFF BILL PAYNE GETS
EVEN WITH A REPORTER

Washington, May 14.-Sereno e..
Payne, chairman of the house com
mittee on ways and means, is fat
and he knows It, although he does
not like to be told about It. The
other day a newspaper reporter put
in his paper the following statement:
"Mr. Payne waddled out of the
White House"
Yesterday this same reporter, who
Is also fat and therefore possessed
of a tendency to waddle, ran out of
the White House to overtake Mr..
payne, who had made another trip
to see the president.
ANY news, Mr.. Payne?" he asked.
"You just say" replied Payne.
THAT a newspaper man waddled out
after Mr.. Payne and was told that
there was no news"
The newspaper man waddled away
hurriedly and Mr.. Payne waddled on
in dignifed content.

WISCONSIN, CIGARETTE LAW UpaGLD

BY decision of the sur. eme court
recently the constitutionality of tine
state cigarette law was not only upheld,
but new Interpretation was placed
upon it. According to the state tri-
bInal, merchants are prohibited from
dizposiog Of cigarette papers through a
sale, as well as coupons. The case
arose in Milwaukee where a dealer sold
and delivered a sealed package of
Dukes Mixture tobacco, which con-
tained a coupon with the notice that
upon receipt Of a number Of these at
the New York headquarters, the pur-
chaser could get certain amount of
cigarette paper. The defendant was
charged with having unlawfully offered
for sale cigarette papers and wrappers
for the purpose Of being filed with to-
tobacco for smoking, contrary to law.
Thereupon, further proceedings in the
case were stayed pending a result of
report Of the same to the supreme court
as to the question of law involved The
opin 4 of the court, through Justice
M9rshall, says;
''The scheme of giving orders or
coupons is but a bold subterfuge to
cloak the real purpose to sell or give
away cigarette papers to persons in
this stgte in circumvention of the lew,
the Zeal dealer being the principal in
ne sense that sale of a yGckage in
cludes the sale of coupon, and an
agent, in the sense that h. acts for the
foreign dealers in the latter's efforts
70 supply customers in this state with
cigarette papers. The statute seems in
fleet to prohibit, as plainly about as
English words could be used to that
cad, any one in this state as principal
% agent, directly or indirectly, from
Icing concerned in selling or giving
away TO any person in this state cigar
cites or cigarette papers The
sale OF he package of tobacco with the
coupons enciuot,, eXchangeabe for
cigarette papers. wouiN not have been
iillerent if the package had contained
such paper instead of the equivalent.
Can any one fairly say that it was not
a mere pretense or device resorted to
for Opposing of such paper while giving
he transaction "a different color? In
the opinion Of the court, the answer
must be AS here Indicated
