them into the Buckeye controversy.
Then the Ohio democrats put a slight
on Mr.. Bryan in rejecting his advice
about the United St-tes senatorship. He
wanted a nomination made by the state
convention. His fear was that il the

An Airplane Tragedy.

Aviator Rolls came to his death yester-
day in fall from a short distance above
the earth. which seems to have been
caused by his own risk in attempting to
bring his biplane to a landing mark at
too acute an angle. He was engaged in
competition in which the contestants
were required to bring their machines as
close as possible TO q fixed point. On his
first attempt Rolls missed the goal b.
seventy feet. and in the second trial he
had so Unanswered that in order to strike
the mark he had to bring his machine
down sharply. Finding that ne was de-
scending too rapidly, he sought to check
his fall by raising the elevating planes,
with the result that they were broken and

which heavier-than-air aviation mus,

Atlantic City. carried his machine up to

Insurgents and the Tariff.

Chairman Wolfe of the Wisconsin state
convention made a statement yesterday
very wide of the mark. He represented
Senators Cumrnins, Dolliver. Nelson,
Clapp, Beverage and La Toilette as anti
protectionists who had abandoned 1.-The
ship upon which they SO long had
cruised.''
This is not only contrary to the fact,
but to the fact as stated by the gentle
men themselves In opposing the Payne
bill they expressly stated that they were
not opposing the principle of protection.
They renewed to that principle the as
surance of their distinguished considera
ton. They repudiated with energy all
classif1cations as anti-protectionists and
ex-republicans. They announced that
they were still republicans, and as ear
nestly as ever In favor of republican poll
cies.
These men differed with the majority
of their party friends in the Senate as to
the application of protection in the re-
vision of the Dingley schedules. They
were not warning on protection per sc.
but on certain rates of duty. They
that protection as a policy is robbery.
and were now championing as against
those prepared by the Aldrich side OF
the controversy were based upon protec-
ton. and carried protection in liberal
measure.
II is fair to these men. and important
all around that this matter be kept clear
and straight. Neither Mr.. Clapp, Mr..
Beveridge nor Mr. La Toilette is asking

ton. and is just now seeing the truth.
None Of them would follow the leader
ship OF either MIR. Bailey or Mr. Rayner.
with tariff revision UP. Neither would
the insurgents of the House support
tariff bill framed on lines which Mr..
Clark of Missouri or Mr.. Underwood OF
Alabama favors.
There are two criticisms of the Payne
law. One is that it is socketed in error
and abuse-that is, in protection. Such is
the democratic criticism. What the frank
est of the democratic leaders have in
mind is tariff having revenue only as
the object. They would at once il they
could-certainly as soon as possible
eliminate every vestige of protection from
our system of taxation.
The other criticism Is that the law ap-
plies protection unequaIly. and so as to
bestow unmerited favors in certain quar-
tiers. Such is the insurgent republican
criticism. In no proposition laid down by
the insurgents is protection as a policy
attacked, or the promise held out that the
election of an insurgent to either house
of Congress will mean a vote gained for
the Inauguration in this country Of
strictly revenue tariff.

Germany and the Monroe Doctrine

The indignation which is expressed by
oniciais Of the imperial foreign ONCE In
Berlin over an unfounded report which
circulated yesterday to the effect that 1t
had issued q statement in terms of ex-
plicit refusal to recognize the Monroe doc
trine is natural enough in the circum-
stances. Such statement would be dam
gerously close to a defiance of this coun
try. 1t would be calculated to arouse the
most bitter anti-German sentiment
throughout the United States, with the
gravest possibilities of a bre-ch of diplo-
matte relations and even of hostilities. 10
short. Germany could not have issued the
statement which has been accredited to
the foreign office without running ths risk
of precipitating an unarbitrable issue be-
tween II and the United States.
Save for the blupder of extending
formal routine recognition to the Mad
riz government while the United States
was Withholding its own recognition pend
ing settlement of the Nicaraguan tur-
moil. there has been nothing in the Ger
man procedure in Central and South
America recently to warrant any suspi-
cion that the Berlin government was not
accepting the Monroe doctrine in the full
sense Of its American Interpretation. That
it recognizes the delicacy Of its present
position is evidenced by the fact that i'm
mediately upon the publication of the let
ter to Madriz the German foreign ONCE
felt it incumbent to disclaim any purpose
of discourtesy to this country or "any in
PREVENTION by Germany in Nicaraguan az
fairs
A serious misunderstanding between the
init oH nj ho
Of the status of the United States in South
and Central American affairs would be in
excusable. 1t can arise only through a
determination of Germany to press for
political and commercial advantage in
those regions where the United States has
by traditional acknowledgment Of the
civilized powers prescriptive position in
imical to the extension Of European au-
thority or European acquisition of terri
tory. Germauy's acquiescence in the Mon
roe doctrine Is sufficiently of record to
justify the United States in proceeding
confidently in the assumption that the gov
eminent at Berlin will, unless 1t enter
tains secret sinister design, continue to
respect the American position in the
south.
Viewed in the light Of the traditional
German position in this respect and In
view OF the fact that no other government
has extended to the Madriz presidency
even the perfunctory recognition conveyed
by the kaiser's note Of April q, that ac-
ton unquestfonably stands as blunder.
which can bring no advantage to Ger
many and must cause irritation not only
here, but in other capitals. 1t Is suscepti-
bic Of Interpretation as a bit Of sharp
practice The isolation Of the German
position in this respect destroys the POS
sibiiity of its defense on the ground Of
routine justification.

The Sting Of q Bee.
n the Baltimore American.

From the Baltimore American.
An eastern fable tells of a potentate
who demanded that there should be
brought to him the stings Of a thousand
bees killed because one Of their colony
had dared commit less-majeste by
singing the hand Of royalty. When
they were brought in a tiny golden
thimble the king was SO amazed to
md that a thousand of the hypodermic
points made such a little mass that he
issued q manifesto to the effect that
thereafter no person within the bounds
Of the kingdom should complain at the
sting Of a bee. The lesson Of the fable
is that petty annoyances hurt because
they are exaggerated In the mind. that
when they are seen in their actual pro-
portions they are so slight as to merit
only contempt. How much comfort
would come to the majority Of persons
liz they could but see the tiny size of
the bee stings that lead them to acts Of
petulance, words Of anger, expressions
Of reproach. The bee sting annoyances
have caused lifelong breaches of
friendship, they have broken up fami-
lies and caused anger and resentment
to take the place OF love and fealty.

A Moment Of Emotion.

In her speech she favored greatly
All topics of a scientific drift.
And her eye, which shone severely,
Looked out candidly and clearly
On this little world she studied to uplift
She was naughty. though intending
To be kind and condescending
To each ordinary mortal here below.
And we listened to her readings,
Her orations and her pleadings
With all the deep respect that We could
show.
But one day when we assembled
To catch every word that trembled
On her hps, to erudition SO inclined,
We were piungec in CONSERVATION
To behold her agitation
In a quite unprecedented state Of mind.
Wow! she cried, with voice capacious
Amt 1t awful!' Goodness gracious!
Her gesticulations left her in a wreck
When we said, What is the matter?'
She had scarcely strength to chatter,

Fred j. Fuller, who for several days

Fuller walked from the railway station
to the Hotel Miller, of which he is the
proprietor, and was Immediately put
to bed. No statement regarding his

family said that Mr.. Fuller was weak
ened both physically and mentally and
would have to have a good rest before
making any statement.
Mr.. Fuller disappeared on Wednes-
day, and a search of the pond where
he had been fishing resulted in the dis
covery of his pail of bait and felt
hat frozen in the ice. Yesterday a
telegram, dated st. Louis, was receiv-

nouncement was made that Mr.. Fuller
was in that city and had been suffering
from some kind of a mental disturb
ance and had just recovered his nor
