The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1910-10-14

sional Record OF April 8, 1909, dis
closes that Mr.. Clark, the Democratic
leader, offered the following, among
other amendments
Seventh Amend by placing
leather. harness, boots, shoes, and all
other products Of leather on the Tree
list"
IF the protectionists who wanted free
hides, IL the Republicans who placed
this deceptive schedule in the bill,
were actuated by desire to give the
people cheaper shoes, they would nat
urally have voted for it. But they
did not, and uncured hides were put
ON the free list, but leather, and har-
ness. and boots, and shoes, things
that everyone uses, were not.
And the iniquity of this act Is
more apparent when we recall that
American shoes, like farming imple-
ments, can be bought cheaper abroad
than here. Why then should boots
and shoes not have been made free
instead of uncured hides ? In 1907
Qast Statistical Abstract available)
we imported $10,633, $500 worth of
gloves of kid or other leather. Shoes
are not mentioned specifically any
where and IL any were Imported al
all, they were included under the
general head of Fall other" manufac-
lures OF leather, which amounted In
value to s1,688,5SO. This general
group of course included everything
made of leather, from shoestrings TO
saddles, except gloves.
But when we look to our exports,
to the manufactured articles of the
trusts, of that year what do we ind
We discover that we exported $lO,-
666, $4,000 worth of boots and shoes
alone, and no gloves, unless so few
that they were included under the
general head of "all other"
So why, when we can export shoes,
keep a. tax on them unless 1t is for
the benefit of the New England manu-
facturer =? Why, if the Republican
party loves the laboring man, did it
not vote for cheaper shoes for him
and his family ? Why, if it loves the
farmer, did it not vote for cheaper
harness The answer is plain, it Is
because it is interested only in the
rich trust magnates who furnish it
with "the sinews of war" through
which it has been enabled to remain
in power so long, and it has become
arrogant, and the best people in it
are in such a revolt at the extent of
it's duplicity, that its days OF graft
and greed are numbered.

SHOES AGAIN.

The American Sentinel was not
! pleased with our criticism of it's edi-
torial ON cheap shoes II comes back
with the explanation that it's infor-
nation was derived from a gentle
man engaged in the tanning of leath-
er, and that:
I'VE have been informed by the
same gentleman that as soon as the
duty was removed On hides, sailed,
raw or otherwise, the fellows on the
other side of the water and in South
America Immediately raised the price
to sum equal to the former one,
plus the former duty, making the
price 70 the tanner in this country ex-
actly what it was before the duty was
removed
This statement caused Us much
surprise, and as we do not know the
price OF hides then or now, as fixed
by the trusts, we have no means OF
refrting it. We did and do say, that
the tariff On hides was not removed
for the benefit Of the consumer, but
the manufacturer, and if it failed i'm
Is object, 40 less it was the inten-
ton of the Republican party to bene-
fit him and not the man who uses
the made-up article. Perhaps how
ever the "world-wide" advance IT.

BAKER VS.. TALBOT.

IhlS is Democratic COHSF0SSlOud1
District, yet, it is now being attacked
by the Republicans. The leader OF
the Democratic cause is Hon. J. F. c.
Talbot, Of the Republican party the
Hon. William B. Baker. What has
Mr. Baker to give, in return for his
election, to the Democratic voters of
this District; what has he to offer
that will prove a benefit to the peo-
pie il sent to Congress; and most OF
all where does he stand on the vital
questions of the day?
We all know Mr.. Talbot and he
has ever stood for the people against
class legislation; we know that he
will vote with his party to reduce ex-
penditures, save money and lower
the tariff We also know that he
represents the same principles today,
that he always has, and further than
that, he has put in writing these prin-
ciples and signed them. They appeal
to every Democrat and should also
to, every Republican. What has Mr..
Baker to offer
MIR. Baker Nh has offered nothing
The Republican candidates for Con
gress in Maryland have this year pre-
scented platform which for equivoca-
ton and obscurity is unsurpassed. Has
this come from an uncertainty Of
their own position, or is 1t an ac-
knowledgement Of their coming de-
feat?
Mr.. Baker, however, II he expects
the support of the Democrats or In
dependent Republicans in this dis
trict, should adopt platform for
himself. He should be honest and
say whether he will be for the New
NatiOnalism" of Roosevelt, or will he
stand with President Taft If he is
for the New Nationalism" he stands
for many Democratic principles, al
though they are clothed in such radi-
cal and Incorporate language that
even Hearst was amazed. IL this be
the case, then no Democrat need
vote for him because Mr. Talbot
stands for the same things in a more
moderate way, except that he does
not favor attacking the Supreme
Court and exciting distrust of our
highest legal tribunal, nor does he
believe in a centralized power at
Washington, with a dictator for Pres
ident.
If Mr.. Baker does not stand for
Roosevelt, then he must with Taft and
Aldrfch; and II he does, then he Is
not in favor of lowering the tariff.
II he IS with them, ne believes i'm
still continuing the inexcusable APP
preparations and the extravagances
OF the Republican party, the expenses
of which Senator Aldrich said could
be reduced $30O,OOO,OOO, a year, tho
he made no effort to Go 50. If he is
with them, he is for continuation
OF the laws which have destroyed our
merchant marine; and III with them,

Golden Rule Applies

Atlanta's application of the golden
rule" in the matter of police arrests will
no doubt be watched with interest the
country over.
AS matter of fact, Atlanta lis COM
paratively quiet and law-abiding city. But
its police court records have given the
city a reputation the country over which
it really does not deserve.
Heretofore arrests by the police in At
lanta have numbered from two to three
times as many as those of any other city
of proportionate size in the United States.
Though half Of them were for the most
trivial offenses, they all went into the
hopper and were statistically enumerated
as illustrating Atlantas excessive Grim
inality.
Two children quarrel on the sidewalk;
policeman comes along; they are car
red before the recorder; their parents
are made to pay fine or correct them,
perchance, even, they may be sent TO
the state reformatory.
A man exasperated, perhaps justly.
raises his tone of voice In railing at an
other. He is arrested. Drunkenness. and
cursing are the charges. He proves abb
solutely that he was as sober as the
proverbial judge Nevertheless he is fined
IS for quarreling.
A, newspaper reporter is hurrying to his
office with story at a. m strange
policeman sees him, becomes suspicious.
refuses to accept his story, carries him
to the station house.
These are actual examples of arrests
made by the Atlanta police, where the
least possible ground could be trumped
up they have given no quarter.
1t has even led to the charge, matter
of gossip with many Atlantans. that the
police court has been run for revenue
only
All of which led the police board at
Its meeting this week to decide upon q
new tact Atlanta has been getting bad
name from a criminal standpoint; the
police force a bad name from a human
that this ought to be stopped.
The order was accordingly given that in
future the police shall make arrests only
in SSses of actual necessity; in cases
where there Is actual and apparent vio-
lation of a state law or a city ordi-
nance. In other words, the police are
directed to cease making trivial cases;
to stop arresting children for infantile
quarrels and like offenses to admonish
rather than arrest q man who happens
to raise the tone Of his voice in speaking
to another; to let man who may have
had few drinks, but Is going quietly
home, go there, instead of being hauled
down to the police station in the hurry
wagon
Time has not elapsed in which to make
comparisons or tell how the new rule Is
going to work, but from indications 1t il
safe to say the Atlanta policemen will
not use up so many notebooks as they
have In the past in keeping records Of the
arrests which they malxe-records kept

Eufaula, July 19.-(Special. )-Whatever
may be said as to the dullness that has
characterized the smaller cities during the
spring and summer months in CONNER
cial way, Eufaula can lay claim to at
least one important industry that Is fast
earning a reputation abroad, and that

profitable basis, despite dull times and

In being thoroughly overhauled and
equipped with new and more up-to-date
machinery in every department, is now
believed to be one of the strongest and

put of its products that are finding their
way to almost every habitable quarter of
not only this but other continents.

Bates, a young farmer from the north
ern part of the county, was arrested to-
day on a charge of attempting assault
upon Mrs. T. ]. Morris, a young married
woman of the neighborhood. Mrs. Morris
claims that Bates came to her home In
drunken condition and not only made i'm
proper proposals but was violently pro-
fame. Bates claims that there is nothing
in the charge. Judge Belts has fixed
his bond at $1,000.

Death of Mrs. Sara Brown.

Douglas papers of Monday an nounced the death in that city on the preceding day of Mrs. Sara A. Brown, the mother of Doctor Aus tin c. Wright. Her death was caused by cerebral hemorrhage, resulting in paralysis. The de- ceased lady was known well in Nogales, having resided here sev- eral years before removing to Doug las, some four or five years ago. In the line city, as at Douglas, Mrs. Brown enjoyed wide circle of friends and acquaintances, who admired her greatly for her many amiable and sterling qualities who will all deplore her demise, and who sympathize with Doctor Wright in his sad bereavement.
