THE TARIFF REVISION A CRIME


Had the Emperor of Germany +the
King of England or the Gar of Rus
STA attempted to do in Europe what
Taft Cannon Aldrich- Payne and their
willing tools accomplished, it is pos.
tive certainty that they would have
been unable to bring about their de
sires and that it would not only have
been useless attempt, but danger.
GUS one, as well. However despotic,
the power of the monarch might be
the Indignation of his people would
be so intense that if he did not rescind
his action the probability is his gov
eminent would be overthrown. This
statement may seem extreme, and the
analogy far-fetched, but take look at
the facts:
The Republican party made DELHI
crate and solemn promise to the peo-
pie of the UI tied States to revise the
tariff downward. That promise was
made as matter of political necessity,
because the rapidly increasing cost of
living threatened political revolu-
ton. The promise was construed, and
meant to he construed, as meaning Il
reduction in tariff taxation that would
materially reduce prices.
When. on the strength of this prom
Use, the Republican party was retained
in power, the president Immediately
ln1 IN, ;ol
session, and the congress and himself
acting jointly and severally, revised
the tariff upward! The result was not
reduced living expenses, but increased
living expenses!
And thereupon the Republican party
divided itself into three houses and
went before the country.
One house said. I'VE did not promise
to revise the tariff downward"
Another house said. I'VE broke our
promise to the people
But all three houses. speaking with
one voice as Republicans, said, mo
matter what we promised and no mat
ter what we did, the Republican party
must be continued in power and we
are all Republicans"
We submit that never before in q
popular government, and seldom in u
despotic government has such record
of shame and treachery been made,
and that if such record were to b,
made by any government in civilized
Europe today, it would result in that
governments downfall.
And Low, the people of this repub-
lie, who were promised reduced tariffs
and lower prices, and who got increas.
cd tariffs, are now being put under the
screws for the resulting higher prices.
We quote the following from the Lin
coin Star, Republican newspaper ed
tied by G. b. Edgar, formerly of the
News.Press of this city:
'Linoleum, hardware, silks, woolens,
glass and number of other articles
are scheduled for bulge in price.
Department store managers and rural
merchants are studying the trade jour
nails and keeping in touch with the
factories. The increases will be stag
gering in some cases.
Hardware will cost the Nebraska
farmer more money. The steel inter
ests have been literally taken care Of
say the Lincoln business men, and the
prices must advance. The recent rally

I whipped the churling wa ters of the South Platte River in South Park. and, for an amateur, succeeded fairly well in turing on an average of eight to ten pounds a day of rainbow and eastern trout from their watery abodes They ranged in weight from three-quarters of pound to four pounds, and in some instances larger. but those weighing one, two and three pounds were more plentiful and, it seemed. a little easier to hook. I wis ited Twin Lakes, seven miles from the station of Granite on an automo- bile trail. The larger of the lakes is more than a mile wide, and very deep. At depths varying from twenty-five to seventy feet we caught Mackinaw trout ranging from ten tn twenty pounds, the largest one weighing 21A and which, handsomely mounted, may be seen in railroad ticket office on Seventeenth street in Denver.

Railway corporations, aided and abetted by the National and State Gov ernments, are today disseminating more useful information concerning outdoor sports and general recreation than is sent forth to the world by all the hotel proprietors, lake resort keep CTS and forest reserve custodians in the country combined In the first place, a railroad must nowadays be ready and willing to give such infor nation, reliable in character and mi mute in detail, to the prospective trav= eler.

 The writer recently came across a little booklet, just the size of an or dlnary letter envelope, and bearing on the front cover the title: Fishing, Hunting and Camping in the Colorado Rockies. It was not with any Ian guid feeling that 1 started reading the subject matter between the covers, but 1 confess at the beginning I had just trace of prejudice, feeling that 1 was going to read an out and out advertise ment. 1 was refreshing1y dissp- pointed.

This stream runs down a narrow val ley and between lofty peaks The trout here are dead game" in the yernacular of the fisherman, and one weighing two pounds will give the an gler tussle that is pretty apt to cause him to exaggerate in telling about it if he isn't real careful It requires from ten minutes to half an hour to land him, dependent upon the anglers knowledge of the trout's fighting pro- pensities and the distance from the rod where the fish takes the fly. We found splendid rustic hotel and camp ing facilities all along the Frying Pan River; also available furnished cabins.
 From Thomasville we journeyed on horseback to Woods Lake, distance of seven miles from the track. Here P J. Englebrecht runs a rustic hotel and rents furnished cabins and cot tages for housekeeping. We put in a week there, leaving our heavy baggage in care of the agent at Thomasville. The sport there was fine, though we organized Fishermen's Ananias club, with several prominent persons as charter members-but it would be tell ing tales out of school to go into de- tails.

and outfitted for a trip to the deer country, some forty miles north of that point This was the last week in Oc- tober Of the seven in our party, five returned with trophy in the form of a deer We rode the range with cow boys in the great annual cattle round up" which was being held in that vast country; we breakfasted, dined and supped with them wherever they pitched camp, relishing our meals out of tin plates, squatted eross-legged on the ground around the camp-fires. To know and appreciate what real West ern hospitality means, one must spend 8 little time on the range with the Colorado cowboy. One unfortunate in- cident alone marred the trip, but this was quickly righted when explanations were offered. One of our party, with the best of intentions, offered the roundup foreman money in compensa- ton for our accommodations. The of. fer was taken as an insult, which was promptly resented. An apology was made and accepted and the man who proffered the gold learned something about the real cowboy which will stand him in good stead In future.
