Trying to Make a Swap.

President Taft has wandered as far
from the economic teachings of Morrill,
and Kelley as Senator Bailey has
from the preachments Of Albert Gal
latino and Roger Q. Mills. The Pres
ident recomends free raw materials.
That means Tariff for revenue only,
swift and sure, on the finished prod
uct. The Senator demands taxed raw
materials. That means perennial pro-
tective duties on the finished product.
That is why Senator Aldrich was 80
dilligent in impressing on the Demo-
cratic side of the Senate that he was
as much in fovor of Protection for
Southern raw materials as he was
for Protection for New England finish

Enforcing the Law.

Defrauding the revenue by bribing
serious statutory crime, but there are
many who do not realize that the loss
to the revenue is the smallest part OF
the injury inflicted. Its effect is to give
the thief such advantage over honest
men as TO tend to drive honest men out
of business and place all the importing
business in the hands Of swindlers.
Under a Protective Tariff the duties
paid are no unimportant part Of the
cost of the imported commodity, and
the importer who habitually evades
great part Of the duty can not only
undersell competing importers, but cal
make It impossible for domestic goods
of the same character to compete.
The greater part Of the changes made
in me new Tariff act have had for
their object the prevention of frauds
in the revenue and to the injury OF
honest competition, and so far as there
is increase in Tariff rates. it will be
largely in the actual collection OF
the duties intended to be imposed
by the Dingley act. Most Of the fraud
said just now to be brought to light
are cases in which the duty, like that
on sugar, is imposed on weight. Oh
viously the raw way of bribing the
Custom-house weighers is the easy
way to evade duties. but it is also more
easily detected when suspicion is
aroused. From the statements made
it would seem that the majority of
the weighers of the New York Gus
tomhouse must have been in receipt
Of regular bribes.-San Francisco

The election last Tuesday passed
off quietly in Ohio County, and the
predictions made by this paper in
its last issue were fully verified in
almost every particular. The
campaign was dull and lifeless
from the very beginning, and because

ness resulting from the Republican
primary, which was always magnified

chance to overcome the Republican
majority and elect at least part Of
their ticket. In this they were d!sap-

Republican principles. This is exceed
ingly gratifying to the Republican
leaders as well as the rank and file
in Ohio county, especially in view
Of the fact that in nearly every in
stance Republicans fell down in the
surrounding counties. Great credit is
due every member Of the Republic

work done during the campaign, and

Shoes Higher, Spite Of Free
Hides.

The New York Times" prints and
the Davenport Democrat" reprints an
article on the increased price of shoe
and leather goods. The article says
that a great many people are wonder
ing that, with the duty on hides re-
moved in the new Tariff "the price
of prepared leather is advancing in
stead of falling" The article then pro
ceeds to say that the Tariff has moth
ing TO do witah the matter. that It
is solely one Of supply and demand
and at the present time the demand
exceeds the supply.
The truth that has thus been re-
vealed in the case of leather and shoe
was often pointed out by those who
were opposed to the removal OF the
duty. Their predictions that the cost
Of shoes would not be lowered is
coming true and it is coming true
much sooner than they had expected.
The shoe manufacturers who lobbied
that reform" through Congress per-
sistently promised the people cheaper
shoes, but instead of cheaper shoes
We are to have higher shoes. In the
meantime the Government Is losing
much revenue by the removal Of
the duty.
The country was simply buncoed
on this free hide question. But it is
worth something as an answer to
those who are insisting that the higher
prices We meet with in so many d.
rections are due to the Tariff. Here
We have hides absolutely free, the
competition of the world is ours, and
yet prices in this particular line are
going up, not coming down.-Cedar

Gompers, Mitchell and. Morrison
May be Compelled to Serve
Jail Sentences.

washington, d. c., Nov. Pin an
opinion, sweeping in its terms. the
court of appeals of the District OF
Columbia today affirmed the judgmen
Of Justice Wright, of the Supreme
court OF the District of Columbia, in
imposing Jail sentences on President
Gompers, Vice President Mitchell and
Secretary Morrison, OF the American
Federation of Labor, for contempt OF
court in violating the Injunction in tn
Bucks stove and range case. These
sentences were:
Gompers, one year.
Mitchell, nine moths.
Morrison, six months.
The opinion was rendered by AS
sociate Justice Vanarsdel. and con-
CURED in by Justice Robb. Chief jus
tice Shepard dissented.
The case decided today grew out Of
the action of the Federation of Labor
in placing the Bucks Stove and Range
company, of st. Louis, on the 1--WE do
not patronize" list in the monthly Of
fetal organ of the federation, follow
ing the failure to adjust the dispute
between the Metal Polishers union
and the Bucks company in March,
1907.
Justice Van Arsdell emphatically
states his belief chat the acts charged
were committed by the defendants for
the express purpose of qualifying the
order Of the court, in the belief that
they were technically avoiding the
charge of contempt" He carefully
avoids any references to the plea of
the labor leaders that convictions Of
contempt in the case constituted an
Of their constitutional
right of free speech and free press.
