Senator Gore says his idea of the
recent prize is thus: 1t was contest
between two brutes and the best brute
won; and the same would be true had
the result been just the opposite. An
other gentleman says he is glad the
negro won because it relieves the white
race of the odium of having the cham
pion brute of the country on its list.

All men are created equal in the eyes
of the law, and before the bar of just
ice. There are inequalities of course be-
tween men, in regard to culture, men
tai endowment and wealth, but it is
the special favors to the privileged few
of which we complain.

In conditions today, can be seen the
sinister hand of the beef trust, for they
are shielded from competition by the
high wall Of tariff, and they compel
the American people to pay higher pric-
es for produce thxn they sell 1t abroad.
The trusts and monopolies control the
market of today.

There are some who believe in high
tax, and some in a low tax, but tax
high or low is a necessary evil. As
there can't be good evil, neither can
there be a good tax. But of course
there will always be different views
about that too
As the tariff prices are increased.
the cost of living increases; decrease
them and the prices 60 down. In fact,
the cost of living has gone up, and the
standard down.
If prices are still higher, then tariff
revision is failure. Prices are get
ting SO high, that poor man can hard
ly afford the luxury of living any more.
There are reasons given for this. The
increased volume of gold results in in
creased prices. But x:isthe nations of
the earth would be affected in the same
ratio if it were only gold, so that can
not affect local conditions to such an
extent.
The law of supply and demand regu-
lates prices. But there must be other
causes, for bread and meat are sold
cheaper in London than here, the meat
shipped from the United States, and
often times grown on an Iowa
farm.
There is long list of articles which
are manufactured here and sold higher
than abroad. The trusts should be
compelled to face competition, and
tariff protection should be withdrawn.
1--WE deepen our harbors to facilitate
trade, and then we raise the tariff walls
when the trade comes. :"
"The trusts deny the equality of op-
portunity. The humblest child in the
United States should have a fair chance
and equal rights with the more favored
ones of wealth. I"

NEGROES ENTER PROTEST

The ordinance regulating second

The ordinance was introduced several

ordinance committee for revision.
However the committee has found
it impractical to change the ordinance
