Three more deaths from Fourth OF
July celebration injuries were report
ed Thursday. bringing the total OF
deaths for this years celebration M
to 1872.
Most of the dead are boys,
If that number of American boys
were slain by some foreign foe, the
United States government would ex
pend billions of dollars and lay down
the lives of armies of men, if neces

This is grewsome argument for

facts must be met unf1inchingly.
No consideration of the 1909 cele

observer of the situation paints in his
mind the picture of those 122 corpses
of Fourth of July dead, most of them
boys.

that such a celebration of any festa

yindieates Democratic Position.

''In the statement recently issued
from the White house President Taft
makes plea for free raw products and
says not a word about desiring reduc
tons in the rate on manufactured
products. The statement is an undis-
putable confirmation of the position
taken by the democrats all along-that
the tariff is being revised to suit the
| big New England manufacturers. Ev
cry tariff trust in the country, save
possibly the steel trust, would be quite
willing, no doubt. to endorse every
thing President Taft said as to free
raw Materials
In an interview on the newest phase
of the tariff situation. Hon. James T.
Lloyd of Missouri, chairman of the
democratic national congressional com
mittee, thus made plain the real mean
| ing OF President Taft's plea for free
raw materials. Mr. Lloyd is the man
who conducted the congressional cleo
| tons for the democratic party in 1908.
reducing the republican majority in
| the house 10 members. and under
somewhat favorable circumstances. He
will again manage the congressional
elections in 1910. in all probability.
The failure of the president to ask
| for reduction of the duties on manu-
| featured products as we'll as raw
products, said Mr.. Lloyd, causes me
to doubt his good faith as to desiring
straight out-ahd-out downward revision.
Nothing could be more unfair than the
placing of raw materials on the free
/ list without a corresponding reduction
on the products of the manufacturers.
Such revision of the tariff would be
| monstrous; but it looks TO ME now as
| if that is the kind of revision the peo-
pie will have to accept at the hands
of the present administration.
Even TO discuss the subject from a
| republican viewpoint you can not &C
cept the conclusion that 10 place raw
materials on the free list and in the
| same bill 10 advance the tariff rates
on manufactured goods, is the most
| fragrant discrimination against the lit
tie fellow i'll favor of the trusts If
hides, for instance, are placed on the
| free list and boots and shoes are pro.
tected. every man who sells COW is
Disseminated against in favor of the
New England shoe manufacturers.
1 Under such one-sided revision money
would be taken from the man who sold
| the COW and donated TO the manufac.
turer of shoes. In the White house
statement President Taft said he was
acting not for any section of the coun
Try, but for the country as whole
Then by all means he should have
been consistent and made a plea for
free boots and shoes as well as free
hides.
The New England manufacturers
have long been praying for free hides
