Mr. Bryan in Texas denounced
Bailey for deserving free trade. In
Minnesota Mr.. Taft said:
"Was il the duty of the member
lof congress who believed that the
bill did not accomplish everything
that It ought to accomplish, TO vote
against it?
Il am here TO justify those who
answer this question IN the negative.
am not here to defend those who
voted for the Payne bill, but to sup
port them.
81 am glad to see That those who
voted against the bill still insist that
they are Republicans, and that they
intend TO keep up the fight for still
lower tariff rates within the party.
That is their right and in their view
of things IL their duty.

Mr.. Bryan went to Texas, where
the congressional delegation voted
for tariff on hides, to express himself.
Mr. Taft went to Minnesota, where
every congressman but one voted
against the Payne bill, to relieve his
mind. Whatever one may think of
their logic, he must admit that both
exhibited courage and frankness.
The tariff schedules did not in
terest us as much as did the free
trade with the Philippines, which was
necessary to our national self-re-
spect: the corporation income tax.

access to corporation books; the
reciprocity features of the Payne bill
and the tariff commission, which will
have discovered all the tricks in the
present measure and acquired infor-
nation to prevent any further per-
version of the popular will, ere next
the tariff is considered.
However. as Minnesota was inter-
ested in Taft's speech, because her
took the opposite
view, the criticism of the Minneapolis
Journal is important:
What the president could not well
say, but what is nevertheless a fair
inference from his arguments, is
this; James A. Tawney, fighting on

cities of the Second class. The out

slider the outline. Any changes
deemed necessary will be suggested

1t is little strange that some one,
who was present and in authority. at
that Louisville meeting of the state
central and executive committee meet
ing, does not answer the reasonable
questions that have been asked re-
garding that meeting. II is usual for
the reports Of such meetings to show
just who we're present giving the
names and also to give the names of
those who were represented by
proxies, and who held the proxies
But ii seems that the Louisville
papers. which gave such glazing head
lines to the reported action OF the
committee, have failed to tell where
that committee held its meeting. And
il develops, that the regular secre-
tary of the committee did not know
anything about the meeting, and, so
far he has not been able to learn
anything OF the particulars of said
meeting. Now, this editor, like every
true Democrat in the state, wants to
see the Democrats win In the Novem-
Der election. but at this distance It
looks TO us, as II somebody has been
making some egreglous blunders in
the management OF the campaign, in
trying to mix up state politics with
city politics. The state Democracy is
still waiting to be informed as to the
place where this committee meeting
was held, and the names OF the men,
bers who were present and partici-
pated. The silence on this question
Is becoming oppressive. - Benton

SOME STORIES
AROUND TOWN

1.-THE Ballinger-Pinchot contro-
versy reminds me-" said a traveller
from the northwest, "of some diffec-
ent conditions / noted in this coun-
try and Canada on my trip. If there
were no landmarks and no guides,
one could tell when he crossed the
border by the appearance of the TIM
Der. In this country great trees have
been cut down regardless OF any
thing, apparently, but speed. crush
ing smaller trees and underground.
Then they have been carelessly and
wastefully worked up. leaving the
brush to start forest fires, and finish
the. work of destruction. In Canada
the forests are clean. There is no
dead small timber to indicate ruth
less waste. and the tops are all
worked up and gotten out of the
way. 1t showed me the necessity for
national surveillance such as is be-
ing given by MIR. Pinchot, and il the
forestry service is continued and inl-
proved, we may hope some day for
conditions existing as they are in
Canada. In the Dominion the CEN
trail government has charge of ali
such matters. Our wastefulness IS
partly due to the divided authority
of state and local governments.
Another Improvement is their
management of local affairs. The

cricket on Sunday, they may without
interferrence-but they can't charge
admission. If man wishes to take
a party on Sunday excursion he
may; but he must not charge for it.
Thus professionalism, the curse of
this country, is prevented. Stop
charges for our Sunday amusement.
and our 'sportsmen' would soon
cease their efforts.
THE retail liquor business is con-
fined to hotels and restaurants, the
licenses are few. Consequently,
there is money enough in the bust
ness without selling TO minors and
violating the closing and Sunday
laws, and the privilege is so valuable
and necessary to the hotel and res
taurant trade. that there is no trou-
BILE in enforcing the law. Even the
quality and quantity for the price Is
regulated by the government. and

So great was the force OF the wind
that the waters OF the Mississippi
backed up from the gulf a hundred

New Orleans levee. The neighboring
lakes were agitated TIL they all over

lands with an oceans expanse OF
seething torrent. The gulf waters
from Lake Borgne were added 10 the
volume OF the flood. and when the
latest dispatches came out OF New
Orleans there were outlying parts OF
that city covered with water. while
the cyclonic winds had destroyed sew
eral buildings. great and small, and
had otherwise damaged property.
Throughout the day this heavy
wind was maintained. but Il was not
