Senator Tillman is evidently growing
tired of hearing the high takers in the
Senate protest that in standing together
for high import duties they are actuated
by single desire for the public wei
fare. Recently he urged Senator Aid
rich to enforce rule nineteen in order to
limit debate on the tariff measure Mr..
Tillman said that while he was not in
favor of gag rule, eff this continued
discussion or protection, that goddess
which hovers over the other side and
occasionally lights on this side, does
not cease, why not make the rule
effective"
1t is bad enough to hold up the
consumers Of the country as pro
posed by the grand governing conspir-
acy Of protection; but it is worse still
to insult the intelligence of the people
of these United States by telling them
that their ruthless exploitation is for
the public welfare.

The New York World believes that
the Democratic party has yet a great
mission to perform for the country.
The World rightly holds that the hope
Of the Democratic party and Of the
people lies in return to that older
order when the leadership Of the party
was as Democratic as the rank and file.
In a recent editorial article The World
says:
Democracy is the oldest political
party In the world. In comparison
with it all the existing political parties
in England and on the continent are
parvenus and upstairs. 1t is the only
party in the civilized world which has
a century Of unbroken history, organi-
ZatiOn and tradition. However colossal
the folly and stupidity Of its sO-called
leaders, it will not die unless there is
another party that can take its place,
and no such party is in being.
There are still more than 5000 600
Democrats in the country, and they are
Democrats because they wants to be
Democrats. Most of them could not
help being Democrats if they tried;
being a Democrat is a state Of mind
which neither platforms nor candidates
can wholly Overturn.
ut is these Democrats who keep the
Democratic party alive. The response
bility for keeping it impOtent belongs
to these leaders who think that because
the Republican party has been in
power for forty years out of forty eight
the best way of promoting Democracy
is to initiate Republicanism in some
form or another.
Fortunately there are signs of re-
turn to that order when the leadership
of the party was as Democratic as the
rank and file. Such statement as
that made to The World to- day by Mr..
Hisgen, the Hearst candidate for the
Presidency last year, particularly detin-
ing himself as an independent with
Democratic leanings, is significant Of
the manner in which people are turn
ing to it in despair Of accomplishing
reforms through its great rival The
World finds much to encourage it in
the activities and increasing influences
Of men like Gov. Johnson, Gov. Har-
mond, Woodrow Wilson, Senator
Chamberlain, Gov Marshall and others
in the North who believe in Democratic
principles and are trying to rehabilitate
their party in sections where its for
tunes are ut the lowest ebb.
should they succeed, The World
will look forward in 1912 to Demo
cratic party that is truly Democratic.
There is much history that such a
party can write.
The rank and file of the Democratic
party have become weary of being com
PEELED to choose between a leadership
which has been leading the party away
from its fundamental principles and
the Republican party, which is ac
knowlepged even by its own members
to be the party of special privileges.
The charge made by Mr.. Bryan and
others that the Democratic press Of the
country defeated the party in the cam
paigns of 1896, 1900, and 1908, by
generally withholding its support has
no foundation in fact. When the lead
ership of the Democratic party is right,
the great Democratic newspapers of the
country will be found rallying the
people to its support.

sen ATOR DANIEL WRONG
AGAIN.

Senator John w. Daniels gave great
Joy the other day to the forces behind
the Payne Aldrich tariff measure when
he declared himself to be a protection
list. Mr. Daniel is very brilliant
man Of great ability in many respects;
but this is not the first time that his
judgment has gone wrong. 1t will be
remembered that it was his election as
temporary chairman of the Chicago con
vention Of 1896 that signalized the domi
nation Of the Democratic party by the
advocates Of the free and unlimited coin
age Of silver at the ratio Of 10 to /. AS
Mr.. Daniels was at that time mis-
leader on the currency question, he is
now misleader in regard to tariff tax

+ O X w A X ID,

J. w. Taylor of the Linden Conserva-
tive is back at the old stand writing
good strong, editorial articles. The
vicious Wehrwein bill has called out
from him the following vigorous pro
list:
We regard that bill which has passed
the Assembly providing that the gradu-
ates of all high schools in the state shall
be entitled to enter the University at
Madison on producing a diploma as a
measure that should be killed.
The University should fix its own
standard for entrance. That it is doing
now by putting on its accredited list
after examination all the high schools of
the state that are turning out pupils
sufficiently advanced to meet its de
mandS in the ways of scholarship. The
high schools that do not do so are only
kept off the accredited list for that rea-
son alone. Therefore it is that the pro
posed new law in effect amounts TO the
absurd proposition that the laggard
high schools of the state rather than the
University shall fix the entrance stand
ard of students TO the highest seat of
Tearing in Wisconsin. That is not com
mon sense.
At present the fact that there is an
accredited list is a constant incentive TO
lift all the high schools of the state to a
reasonably high and fixed standard.
The new law is really a proposition to
pull down to the standard of the lowest
and most meagerly equipped : nigh
schools in the state

1909 Corn Shows Plans Now
Being Outlined.

The College of Agriculture of the
University of Wisconsin and the Agri-
cultural Experiment association will
again prepare a display for the Nation
al Corn Exposition to be held December
els at Omaha. The dates have just
been announced and Prof R. A Moore
is already outlining plans for the ex-
hibition, which is expected to be larger
and better than usual. Wisconsin ex-
hibitors won large number of the best
prizes at the last show, and if prepare
tons are begun at once, Prof. Moore
believes they can win even more prizes

The Campaign Against COnsump.
tiOn

llOus
At Shelton, the other evening, DR..
Harvey Dee Brown scored a triumph
for the campaign Of education against
consumption. He was scheduled for an
illustrated lecture showing the extent Of
the disease and the manner in which it
can be cured and prevented.
The local authorities were unable to
obtain the opera house as it had been
engaged for theatrical performance.
Nothing daunted, however, the public
spirited committee secured the largest
church auditorium and announced the
lecture.
Farmers drove ten and twelve miles
to hear the optimistic message of the
Wisconsin Anti tuberculosis AssOcia-
ton which is cooperating with the
Extension Division Of the University Of
Wisconsin.
The appeal of the heart interest lee
ture was so great that the theatrical
company was completely put out of
business, admitted its defeat and at
tended the lecture in body. The
auditorium was filed to OVERLOOKING
and the city is preparing to enter upon
a local campaign to wipe out Of exis-
tence the great destroyer of human life
and bad thief of hard earned savings.
The Wisconsin Anti tuberculosis
Association, 314 Goldsmith Building,
Milwaukee, is prepared to send a lee
turer to any community in which
sufficient interest is manifested, to turn
out good sized audience.

visit the University Of Wisconsin dur

Mr.. Dominquez, when he visited the
University this year, was greatly i'm

given at that time, and he hopes to
inspire Mexican farmers to better
methods by showing them what is being
done in the United States. The party

 OF A PARTICULAR AILMENT.

There is no 'cure-all'' among the Rexall Remedies. There are different and separate medicines. each one de- vised for a certain human ailment or a class of ailments colsely allied. For instance, ReXall Dyspepsia Tablets are recommended for the positive relief of stomach irritation. digestion, flatulency and dyspepsia. They are rich in Bis muth- h-Subnitrate. Pepsin and Carmina- tives. They are prepared by special processes which perfect and enhance the great remedial value of these we'll known mdicinal agents This remedy sells for 9 cents, 50 cents. and s1.00 per package. Every one suffering from stomach disorder should try Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, inasmuch as they cost nothing if they do not satisfy.
 Remember. The owl Pharmacy, An drew H. Miller, Mgr, Cor. 1st Ave. and Adams St, is the only store in Phoenix where these remedies may be obtained, and every one in need of medicine is urged to investigate and take advantage of the frank and generous manner m which they are sold.

The wearing qualities of the brick will thus be tested The use of vitrified brick as a street pavement was argued A perti- nent suggestion by Councilman Cisney was that the freight rates on a few carloads of brick would cost like Christmas.

 A protest by resident of Evergreen place and directed against the Phoe- nix Street Railway company was read. The protests stated that the company is noW charging double fare. whereas, according to it's franchise. it has the right to charge but a single five cent fare within the limits of the city The writer of the protest says that the sec oUd fare is collected at Roosevelt street, which is now several blocks this side of the northern boundary of the city. He says this works a great in convenience on those living in aHd near the Evergreen addition. as they either have to get off at Roosevelt and walk the rest of the way or cough up another nickic. In the discussion by the council St. Paul and Minneapolis were quoted as examples of cities that had enlarged ther boundaries and still compelled the companies to stick to the one fare. The fare between these cities. distance of nineteen miles, is but ten cents, the extra nickle being collected at the intersection of the boundaries.
