A few steel corporation men dined
in Chicago . short time ago, and
they were said to represent two bill.
lion dollars-not millions, but bill.
lions-which had been created in the
past four years out of the sweat and
blood of suffering humanity. And
yet the Republicans will refuse to re-
wise the tariff which has protected
these billionaires, and have even in
creased the rates on structural steel
in the new tariff law so that their
profits could be made larger. There
is now absolutely no competition on
structural steel, so the steel. trust
can charge 45 per cent-which is the
tariff protection over and above a
reasonable profit without fear of CON-
petition from any foreign quarter.
Thus the coast of erecting REINFORCED
steel buildings is largely added 70
and rents are increased in proportion
to the increased price of steel by
reason of the tariff protection. Yet,
Vice-President Sherman, in a speech,
in North Carolina, defends the tariff
law, and declares that high-price
wages are the beneficent results of
protective policies.

Odd Hair StYiea.

Some OF the New Hebrides people
do their hair up in a bunch on the top
OF the head and stain it yellow. while
the inhabitants of the Ombal Islands
pass it all through a tube so as to
make sort of plume. The Marque-
sas chiefs method is to shave all the
head except two patches. one over
each temple, where he cultivates two
horns of hair. No doubt this is to
more render him thing of terror to
his enemies than admiration of his
friends. His reason for shaving the
remainder of his head is to allow more
space for tattooing, as if all the avail
able skin of the body were not suffi-
cient for that purpose.

word for class of material objects

beaver, buffalo, a salmon, q snake,

trees, the sun or the snow. But

nection between it and its protege

fies his esteem for this protection by

OPPOSING REFORMS.

The Republicans of Maryland have
been trying to prevent Gov. Croth-
ers of that State from reorganizing
the Police Commission of Baltimore,
and have even gone so far as to
threaten him with Impeachment if he
does his dnty according to the con-
stitution and the laws of the State
The police commission has beer
charged with dereliction of duty
allowing uninvestigated gambling;
the unrestricted sale of liquor on Sun
day; protecting criminals; police
force have shared in the spoils. The
Governor was urged by reputable
citizens of all classes to take action.
The case is now before the court un-
der mandamus proceedings to pre-
vent Gov. Crothers from suspend,
ing the police commission pending
trial, and from appointing tempor
ary commission in their places. The
Republicans claim that to remove the
police commission before they have
been proven guilty would be "arbi-
trary despotism." But Attorney
General Straus told the court: "The
power of the Governor to make tenn
porary appointment in this case ex-
lists in the Constitution. He is re-
Quired by it to enforce the laws, and
is given the power Of removal with
the incidental power of temporary
suspension" If it were otherwise,
there would be no way to correct the
most fragrant abuses, and reform
would be impossible unless delin-
quents were caught red-handed,
which rarely occures.
AttOrney-General Straus declared
to the court that: "The Governor
will do his duty, and he is entitled to
the respect of all citizens. A more
laborious and faithful Governor than
Crothers never filled the gubernator-
ial chair. l believe the great mass
of the people are behind him in his
efforts to improve the police depart
ment."
The partisan spirit shown by the
Republican leaders of Maryland is
not unusual, for Governor Harmon,
Mayor Gaynor and other Democratic
officials of several States, have had
similar obstacles thrown in their
way in their efforts to reform abuses.

REJOICE NOT TOO SOON.


ly suburb of Tacoma. but after
wards included within the city limits.
are rejoicing over their recent vic
tory in the controversy with the Ia
coma Railway and Power Company.
Before Fern Hill had become a part
of Tacoma, the street car fare was
ten cents per passenger from Pacific
Avenue and fifteen cents cents for the
round trip. The little suburb was
annexed to the city in order to OBJ
tain the five-cent per passenger rate,
whereupOn the company advanced
the rate to ten cents straight with
out round-trip privileges. Then
came contests before the courts and
those of a physical nature, in which
one man by the name of Peder Jen-
sen, suffered severe maltreatment at
the hands of an employe of the COM
pany. The franchise provided that
five-cent rate should be charged
within the city limits, which the
company's lawyers claimed applied
only to the boundaries existing at
the time of granting the franchise
The Superior Court of Pierce county
held against the Railway and Power
company. and on appeal to the SUI
preme Court of this State that tri-
bunal has affirmed the decision of the
lower court. The company's mana
ger states rehearing will be applied
for before the appellate court, en-
tanc, which means the entire bench
consisting of nine Judges. Assum-
ing the petition for a rehearing will
be denied, then the company will un-
doubtedly sue out writ of error. be-
fore the United States Supreme
Court, on the ground that the State
tribunals miscOnstrued the franchise,
impairing the obligation of the con-
tract, and that the company is de-
priTed of its property and rights
without due process of law. The
highest court may reverse the State
courts, then where will the Fern
Hillites be at? Again, if the pres
ent ruling is not wholly reversed.
still the rights of the residents and
parties similarly situated, may be so
circumscribed that ruling seeming
ly in their favor may do them very
little good.
In one of the suits pending in the
Pierce county court, on Intervention
Of the Old Colony Trust Co., a foreign
corporation that owned a large block
OF the stock of the Railway and
Power company. procured the con-
trOversy to be transferred to the
Federal Court. in which Judge Han
ford issued a restraining order pro-
hibiting the Fern Hillites and City Of
Tacoma officials from collecting the
ten cent fare. 1t seems, however,
this order was never enforced and
passengers continued to ride on the
basis Of the five-cent rate. Now the
question arises. what will interfere
with the Trust company or any nom
resident stockholder from going
ahead and obtain q contrary ruling
before the U. S. courts, bearing in
mind the resourceful methods of COR
poration lawyers. Still these attor-
neys are confronted with the popu-
lar prejudice existing. and by no
means on the decline against the
Federal judiciary. On the whole. it
seems the State tribunals should
have the power to finally decide the
questions of local policy regarding
the relations of our domestic corpo-
rations and our own citizens OF the
above character.
