ATTACKING ONE OF THE Elk.
cEPTioNs.

J.
Now and then a republican man
ages to reach position of COM
manding influence unassisted by
predatory wealth. Such men are ex-
ceptions and they are at all times
generously decorated with ridicule
and vilification by every trus. in
fluence in the country.
James R. Garfield, the son of the
martyred president is trying to
succeed in public life without wear
ing the scarlet livery Of the reaction
aries; but, just at present, he is
down and out with little chance to
get even look in while Taft is pres
lident. Taft removed Mr.. Garfield
from office to make a place for his
dear friend, Ballinger, and when the
people OF Ohio talked Of running the
young man for governor, the Cincin-
natl Times-Star owned by President
Taft's brother, Charles, serves the
following facetious notice upon the
people OF that state:
JIMMY.
The pathetic little Guberhatoria
boom of James Rudolph Garfield was
formally launched at dinner il
Cleveland Monday night. There were
speeches and elaborate food, ani
Jimmy gave brief outline of the pc
litical philosophy which he would like
the world to believe is responsible FOL
the dissatisfaction with which he
looks upon his own fortunes and
those of the country at the present
moment.
Mr.. Garfield deserves all the nice
little dinners Cleveland will give
him. He is a remarkable figure in
Ohio politics. He is THE one Re
publican In the State for whom Col
Roosevelt could take the stump ev.
cry morning and every night during
the campaign without giving him the
slightest chance for victory!
There it is in cold type. The
Taft's have no use for man who is
trying to be as decent as Jimmy Gar.
field. They want fellows whose past
records will assure the predatory in
-erests against law enforcement. suct
assurance will mean big campaign
fund and several other questionable
things which they hope will enable
them to defeat Governor Harmon al
the state election in Ohio.

tJames Russell Lowell on Wendell Phillips
He stood upon the worlds broad TIRES
hold: wide
The din of battle and of slaughter rose
He saw God stand upon the weaker side,
That sank In seeming loss before its
foes.
Many there were who made great haste
and sold
Unto the cunning enemy their swords;
He scorncd their gifts of fame, and pow
err. and gold.
And underneath their soft and flowery
words,
Heard the cold serpent hiss; therefore he
went
And humby Joined him to the weaker

Fanatic named. and fool, yet well con-

And feels It's solemn pulses sending
Through all the widespread veins o.

material difference? The difference

THE INDICTMENT OF GOVERNOR
CAROL.

John Cownie, the stalwart old
Scotchman did an unusual thing when
he went before the grand jury in
Polk County and said in substance:
II am guilty Of the charges which
Governor Carol is preferring,
should be in the penitentiary, and
II am innocent. Governor Carol
should be in prison. I want you a6
investigate fully and indtct the guilty
man.
The grand jury could not ignore
such manly and straightforward re-
quest. The investigation was long
and thorough. Many witnesses on
both sides were examined, and as a
result Cownie has been exonerated
and the Governor has been indicted
for the crime of malicious libel.
Before the enactment Of the law
creating the Board Of Control, the
state of Iowa. was Systematically
grated and annually robbed Of tens
of thousands Of dollars, in dealings
connected with the state institutions
which were placed under the manage
ment of the Board of Control. The
Board has saved the state hundreds
Of thousands of dollars, and incurred
the undying enmity of the grafters.
Most Of the members of the Board
ftave been high class men, and
Cownie has at all times ranked up
well with members like Larrabee and
Kinnie.
Never until Carol became governor
was there any attempt to criticise or
attack the members of he Board.
We may be mistaken, but In our
judgment when Carol became gov,
ernor the grafters saw their oppor.
tunity. They said: Here is a weak,
ambitious man, we can easily preju.
dice him against the most expe-
rienced member of the Board, the one
who interposes oftenest to defeat
our schemes and plans. We can
whisper in the Governors ear that
he should be United States senator
some day. That he should build VI
a political machine in Iowa, and make
the state institutions a part of the
machine. In other words, make the
state institutions what they were be.
fore they were placed under the
management of the Board. Governor
Carol readily assented to the
scheme, but the best laid plans O.
mice and men aft gang aglee. In his
attempt to destroy Cownie, Carol
has DESTROYED himself. If the re-
port Of the evidence which we have
read Is anything like correct, he will
quite likely be convicted; and. not
withstanding the large republican ma
jorlty in Iowa he should be defeated
for reelection.

WASHINGTON DISPATCH 70
THE WOMEN; MEN MUST
NOT READ!
BY Marion g. Leland.

Madam, have you been to the dry
goods store lately-thc dry goods store
in your own town?
Have you noticed that you must pay
from 10 to IL cents these days for the
standard muslins that retailed for
s and 8 cents not SO long ago?
And do you know that ginghams
that sold last year for Z 1-2 cents a
yard now cost 1-2.
These questions are addressed to
the womenfolks. In fact, this ar
ticle is dedicated to the women Of
Manchester. This is because the edi-
tor has asked for a political letter
from Washington for the sole inter
est of his women readers.
Yes, the request was somewhat un-
usual. The newspaper correspond
ents who sit in the Press Galleries
in the United States Capitol seldom
II ever prepare an article for the en-
.ightenn.ent of the women Of the
land. But why not? Is 1t not true
that they do more buying than the
men? And that increased prices
pinches the women even more than
the men?
Now If you have noted that muslins
and ginghams and such are higher do
you know the reason? Senator AID
rich of Rhode Island and Senator
Flint of California stated on the
!loor' of the Senate that the retail
srs were to blame for the upward
tendency of prices. These senators
were simply trying to pass the re,
sponsibility from their shoulders,
where it belongs, to the shoulders of
the corner store, where it does not
belong. Your local retailer is as
blameless for Increasing prices as
you are.
Then who is to blame? can give
you the answer. The colored gentle
man in the woodpile is the Payne
Aldrich tariff law. The members CT
Congress who voted for this meas
ure will be explaining to your hus-
bands before long that they voted for
protection. But what they really
voted for was extortion.
Stockings Cost More Now.
Gnghams and laces are not the
only things that cost more because OF
the passage Of the "extortion' bill
Take stockings for instance:
A year ago popular seller was q
German knit cotton stocking with
a seamless foot and Louis Hermesdor
dyes. This stocking cost the mer.
chant $2.25 dozen pairsand sold for
Is cents a pair.
Last year certain American stock
ing, not SO well dyed. nor so well
made. cost the merchan. s1.75 q
dozen pair.
Today the American stocking costs
the merchant $2.25 dozen and sells
for Is cents. Do you see the point?
The tariff has raised the price of It's
German rival 10 cents pair, and IT
is no longer on sale. The greedy
American gets a monopoly on stock.
ings. Then he Immediately raises
his price to the retailer. And you
are now paying the same price for
an inferior article that you us7d to
pay for good article.
Higher prices and cheaper quail.

Aldrichism.

Repudiate Labor Party


 Within the next few days the Phoenix Typographical union will meet, so it is said, for the purpose of considering the recent labor conference, which met in Phoenix and launched the labor party to nominate delegates to the consti- tutional convention. Delegate Keddington, one of those who op- posed the labor men entering poli- tics in partisan manner, walked out of the conference as soon as it was seen that the socialists were manipulating the affairs to suit their own ends. For this, ked- dington has been denounced by the leaders in the labor party. It is laid that the Phoenix printers will follow the example of the Tucson printers and repudiate the labor party leaders.

The democratic central commit tee of the territory held an ani- mated meeting at Prescott Satur- day. It was decided that there would be no nonpartisan division of the constitutional delegates. Therein is written the commence ment of the downfall of democracy in the great state of Arizona. This is an indication that the democracy will stand for the initiative and referendum, the recall, educational disqualification, socialistic domi- nation, and a few other freak things that will make an admission as a state extremely doubtful. There are many eastern senators regardless of party who are not only willing but anxious to pre- vent statehood if any opportunity is offered. Already such articles as the following, from the Spring field (Mass.) Republican, are ap- bearing in down east papers:
 When Arizona and New Mex ico become states, as congress has authorized them to be, they will send four senators to Washington, and there will be national interest in seeing with what kind of men these places will be filled. Much ot the delay in the admission of Arizona and New Mexico to the Union has been due to the fear that the quality of their senators might not be first class, nor IS it a pleasing thought to many that these two new states with their populations of mixed character are to have the same number of vo- ters, and theoretically to have as much influence in the upper branch of the federal government, as the older states possess. There are drawbacks upon our republican, scheme of government, but the most serious of them do not lie on the side of trusting the people. At the same time these coming states owe it to the rest of us to do their best"

Line Recommended by
Improvement Club

Another site was offered for consider
alton Yesterday for the Panama Pacific
exposition The stretch by land skirt
ing the bay from Hunters point toward
the San Mateo line was recommended as
Offering advantages that could not be
duplicated. The suggestion came from
the San Bruno avenue Improvement club.
The organization called attention first
to the tract at Islais creek. 1t proposed
as an alternative the Hunters point To-
cation. In reference to the latter, the
secretary of the club wrote:
AT different times this place has been
favorably mentioned for park purposes
by the city fathers, only the expense
being the objection. We have practi-
cally no fog here The main line of the
Southern Pacific is right here, and the
waters of the bay are of sufficient depth
to allow the freight to come right to its
proper place. In fact, the advantages of
this location can offset those OF any spot
mentioned.
letter full of good cheer came yes
terday from r. f. Summerville of Day
ton, o., imperial ruler of the ancient
suggested that San Francisco was the
best place for such an exposition and
predicted an unprecedented attendance.
The directors of the exposition are
concentrating their attention for the
present on the question of finances and
legislation. The most important task is
the collection of the necessary funds
and all other matters, for time at
least, will be subordinated to this. In
a few days the plan Of stock subscrip-
