Her parents were both teachers in In

A REPUBLICAN OPINION


Taft tariff bill are beginning to soak
through the brains of the editors of the
independent republican press and they
are voicing their protests against the
measure in vigorous language. The
Nebraska State Capital, published at
Lincoln and the organ of it's party in
Nebraska, in Il recent issue has the
following scathing review of the new
tariff law:
The new Aldrich tariff bill is one of
the greatest frauds ever perpetrated on
the American people.
1t is in no way what the republican
party promised in the last campaign
1t is raise in tariff rates above those
of the Dingley tariff, of more than 3
per cent. Yet Il swarm of congress-
men and senator's, part of them crooks
and part of them blockheads, voted for
the bill. and sent word home to their
constituents that it was NEARLY per-
feet bilp and "a great improvement"
The readymadU clothing of men and
boys gets a raise of 1925, OOO 600 year
InaG Is one improvement
There were over 1000 items in the
tariff bill. President Taft asked for
changes in eight of them. He gained
his point in five, and signed this al
most perfect" bill.
On the face of the bill the increase
in revenue is $4,1SS, 4SO, But there
are important reductions along the
line. If any of You common people
In Nebraska want to buy steel rails, or
arsenic, or iron ore, or some rawhides
for chemical and mechanical purposes.
you come in for the benefit of the low
er tariff. you are building and want
flooring rough on both sides, or some
ceiling implanted and without grooves,
you can get some Of the benefits -
But when You go to your stores and
buy the common necessities of life you
Will have the pleasure Of paying high
er prices all along the line. In this the
merchants are helpless. They have
already received notice from the iobbers
and manufacturers of the higher
prices.
The average reduction in the sugar
schedules is one-fifth of 1 per cent.
Remember that when you buy your
sugar, and pay whatever price the
trust dictates
If you want the official figures, show
ing the exact rate OH every item of the
new tariff, and it's comparison with
the Dingley law, ask your senator or
your congressman to get for you Senate
Documents l55 and 1856 Don't take
the word OF any cheap politician, or
any hungry offce-hunter, or any sneak
ing whiffet of an Omaha editor, but get
the official figures, and get them quick.
Then, while You are digging down
into your pockets for the increased
price of the things you must pay. re-
member that state convention in
structcd the Nebraska delegation to
vote for whatever tariff was put ND
to them by u president who had given
1T but casual examination. Remcm.
ber that gang of blockhcads in that
convention thought more of catching
trains for home than they did of the
welfare of the people Of Nebraska
whom they pretended to represent.
What the republicans of Nebraska
need is honest. able and courageous
leadership. What we need is a solid
delegation in Washington pledged to
wipe out CannOnism end Aldricbism
and pledged to restore actual repre-.
sentative government to the people.
There are good and able men in Ne.

to Death.
EXPLOSION OF GASOLINE
Many Guests Of Hotel Narrowly Es-
cape, Several Are Hurt and 9th
ers Show Heroism in the
Work Of Rescue.

Fort Worth, Texas, Jan. 27.-Fire
which broke out at 1880 O'Clock
yesterday morning and burned until
11:15 o clock, destroyed the interior
of the Southern Hotel, three-story
structure, on Jones between Four
teenth and Fifteenth streets, opposite
the Santa Fe depot, caused the death
of DR.. Petit of Hugo, Okla, and of
three railroad men, vSo were asleep
on the third floor, and injured sew
eral others. Two or three of the
guests had narrow escapes and saved
themselves by jumping from the
third floor across a narrow alley to
adjoining roofs. One boy sprang
through a window, shattering the
glass, and landed safely on the roof.
The fire was due to the explosion
of gasoline under a coffee urn in the
dining room, on the first floor. The
building kas old and its interior par
tition walls were flimsy, thin and
dry. The structure burned like
torch and within an incredibly short
time the upper floors were ablaze
and filled with smoke.
]. B. Manning of Dallas made an
ineffectual effort to rescue Charles
Bryant and narrowly escaped death
himself Some of the guests were
suff ocated before they could, be
aroused from their slumber ox res
cued.
The dead:

cued while unconscious, and died at
the hospital at 3:45 p m.

Charles Bryant, switchman, in
employ of the Fort Worth and Den
veF City Railway company, age 20,
had been in the city two months.
Several women had their hair
singed by the flames and were
slightly burned. A little girl was also
slightly burned.
The explosion, which was follow
ed by a sudden burst of flame, which
soon ate it's way upward through the
building, occurred while the gasoline
heater of the dining room coffee urn
was being filed by the wife and
daughter of the hotel proprietor and
Miss Lou Alexander, maid. The
latter had her hair and eyebrows
singed. but was otherwise unhurt.
The alarm was Immediately given,
but SO rapid was the spread of the
fire that it was found impossible to
warn some of the guests asleep on
the upper or third floor. Those who

that, they are being permitted, not

providing for an investigation by
congress of the Panama canal pur-
chase.
I'm their efforts in this direction"
he continued, they have had so far
the complete cooperation and active
assistance of the present administra-
ton and of the next president of the
United States. -
Mr.. Rainey traced the history of
the proposed canal 200 years back
and warned that we have already
started in the direction of the rocks
upon which the French companies
We're wrecked"
Referring to the governments
suits for libel against the New York
World and the grand jury investiga-
tions now in progress in tn city and
New York, Mr.. Rainey said:
eIf we are able to carry this pro-
ject. through to successful conclus-
ion we must avoid graft. 1t is not the
part of wise craftsmanship to dis
pose of resolutions asking for an in
vestigation of any phase of the canal
question with the sweeping and ab-
solutely unsupported official declar-
alton that there is nothing to inves-
tigate 1t is not the part of sound
statesmanship and true patriotism to
attempt to revive the obsolete COM
mon law of 200 years ago and to en-
ploy all the tremendous agencies OF
the government in attempting to
crush newspapers which have had
the courage to call attention to
questionable transaction in connec-
ton with the canal
He submitted for the record pa
pers and documents in support or
many of the allegations contained in
his speech.
