As was to have been expected,
the Independent rose up in the air
and paved last week in editorial
protest of the right Of the Demo-
cratic central committee to put
restraint upon its policy of criti'
Ching the undesirable candidates
of its party. Free rein in the mat
ter policy is something every edi-
tor guards zeaIously, and few ever
abandon that right as long as they
have control of their paper. The
Independent believes there is rot
tenness in the records of the Dem
ocratic candidates for various Of
fees, and states so in no rosewater
terms. "lf man is corporation
tool" it says, ''if he has record
foul enough to make hell vomit,
why should the facts not be made
public in time to prevent further
damage" When it gets as bad as
that the Independents mission is
clear, and the action of the Demo
cratic committee in trying to pre-,
vent it puts that body in very bad
light,

Have Passed the Line Of Safety.

Just now, when 80 much is being
said, even in Republican newspa-
pers, of the pressing need of addi-
tional tariff reduction, and when it
is proposed to greatly enlarge the
powers of the tariff board 80 that
provision can be made for a re
opening Of the tariff question with
further reduction distinctly con
templated, it would be well if
more genetal attention were to be
given to the facts Of trade officially
promulgated from Washington.

April imports were Sl,31S,259,-

ten months ending with April we're

has upset the force of his whole ar
gument by the demonstration that
capital does not bear the brunt of
the loss to protected industries that
follows tariff reduction, the broad
and patient back of labor bears it,
and will continue to bear it until
there comes a change IN our sys-
tenn of political economy, change
in which tariff legislation will play
a small part. Lewis makes the
same mistake that so many of our
writer's on this subject make. He
fires at armor-protected capitalism
with an obsolete weapon and round
shot. OF course, capitalism is not
hurt. Let the entire protective
wall be eyentully beaten down,
capital remains safe behind the
law that protects private rcperty,
and the greatest of our modern in
dustrial institutions are still pri-
vate property. Our Rockefellers,
Morgans, Armours and Schwabs
are safe in private cars and four
million dollar palaces though the
tariff wall crumbles about them.
The law that secures these things to
them is the same law that permits
labor to be crushed under the fail
ing walls, the law that sustains in
dividual rights over public vel.
fare. There will be trusts and
biIlionaires as long as the present
conditions adhere, despite of all
tariff legislation. The solution of
the problem lies not in trying to
find the way out by following the
old circle around which we have
been travelling for hundred years
or more only to arrive at the same
place. out to break away at a tan.
gent and follow a new course.
Let the people once come to the
conclusion that public interest and
the welfare of the social mass is
paramount to the private car of
the Millionaire, and absorb all the
agencies of production and distri-
button of the necessaries of life,
and operate them in collective
ownership, on capital based up
on the comfort and happiness of
the people, they will have come
somewhere near the goal to which
our tariff reformers are trying to
carry them on the rickety old ve-
hicle of tariff legislation.

The Quail's Peaceful Song.

The value and importance of the
quail whose cheerful call adds
much to the charm of rural life is
thus set forth in the Southern Ag-
riculturist:
The rush of modern times, with
its difficult and weighty problems,
gives place to peaceful contempIa-
ton of The sound of hohwhite. His
|usty call from the pasture fence,
the wood lot or the orchard is
among the sweets sounds in nature.
And how they respond to kind
and human treatment. Do not
shoot at them, do not allow them
to be chased by dogs, and try not
to alarm them in any way, aud
they will repay you by coming to
the orchard, the garden, and even
to the yard to sing their little song

soon as the duties are lowered i'm
ports of foreign manufacturers are
largely increased. This condition
is noticeable even under the pres

German act, the last Democratic
tariff law, there was steady pro.
cession of ships dumping foreign
goods upon onr shores and our
own manufactures were idle.
While our Democratic friends are
in the midst of this discussion, it
would not do any harm for them
to do little explaining on this
point.

Bishop Bremen of St. Louis
(Catholic), in an address before
the land congress ut lronton last
week, predicted IT bloody revolu'
tion in our large cities, rising out
of the present conditions of society
there. He holds. however, that
perhaps this calamity can be avert
ed by getting the dissatisfied ur.
banite back to the farm. But the
urbanite may not fancy the farm,
and be is still master of his indi
vidual inclination. Perhaps society
will at some future time regulate
the segregation of the people ac
cerding to economic requirements,
but we have not yet begun to con
slider it. Therefore the packed
masses in our cities will continue
to foment and seethe from the
ieaven of its individualism, anC

this connection the Albany Jour
nal" remarks:
Such exhibits as this are the
most convincing arguments that
can be advanced in support Of the
contention that downward revision
of the tariff and extension Of the
free list have been carried fully as
far as they can be without serious
results to American interests. In
fact, the question may soon Oh
trude itself, if imports continue to
increase greatly and exports only
a little, whether tariff concessions
have not already passed the line of
safety.
Imports do continue to increase,

tariff. UnquestionabIy tariff con-
cessions have already passed the
line of safety.
