The ColoneI's Retort.

A grizzled old colonel, who is a vet
eran of the civil war and who has since
seen active service in the Philippine
Islands, did not view with pleasure
the promotions of younger and almost
unknown officers who were jumped
over his head not so long ago. Stroll
ing about his garden in the Philippines
one day he came upon one of Off
GERS fondling a monkey.
colonel said the officer, ''this is
the most remarkable monkey I ever
saw Why, he can take a stick and
go through the manual of arms al
most as we'll as one of the soldiers"
"'Sh!' cautioned the colonel, glanc-
ing about in great alarm. Don't tell
anybody. Supposing the war depart
ment heard of it, They'd make him
brigadier general" = Harper
Monthly.

MAKING A PLATFORM.

The members of the state central
committee of the republican party
meet in Bismarck today to frame a
platform for the republicans of this
state. There is division of sent-
ment among republicans as to what a
platform should contain We take it.
the declarations of the republicans of
the nation are binding upon republi-
cans of the state, and the last national
platform of the republicans is the
one upon which the republican ma
tional administration is acting. The
tariff has been revised. There is dis
satisfaction in certain quarters with
the new bill. President Taft takes the
ground that the tariff bill is success
full as a revenue producer, and the
new tariff commission will be enabled
to revise the tariff scientifically when
ever it appears that any schedule
needs revision. For the enactment
of this law, which is the longest step
in advance that has been taken in
the matter of tariff, President Taft
is entitled to much credit. 1t is not
necessary to say that. the tariff bill
is perfect. Tariffs have been made
slowly and with difficulty. Even
President Taft does not hold that the
present tariff measure is perfect. But
it is a great improvement over its
predecessor. And the lines have been
drawn for a further step in advance,
in the tariff commission. The repub-
Ncaa party can with dignity and hon.
or indorse the attitude of President
Taft with respect to the tariff.
The record of the last congress is
full of wise and beneficial legislation.
The postal savings bank bill was OBJ
tanned by the republican president
through the republican majority in
congress. The railroad bill is agreed
to be a wise, salutary and beneficial
measure. 1t makes railroad conditions
certain and protects the rights of the
shippers. Sane legislation has been
enacted to protect and conserve the
resources of the nation. 1t is the sim
pie fact that the legislation passed BY
the first congress under the admins
tration of President Taft is the most
important, the most beneficial and the
most effective in the interests of the
whole people that has been enacted
BY any single congress in a genera
ton, While the democrats have been
scolding and while some of the insur-
gent leaders have been criticising.
Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1910-09-08

! President Taft and the republican ma
jority In congress have been doing
things.
President Taft deserves ringing
Endorsement at the hands of the re-.
publicans of North Dakota. He Is
the head of the republican party. He
mas met and vanquished adverse con-
ditions. He has brought and is bring
ing order out of the division OF repub-
licans. He has accomplished much
in his first year of administration.
At the end Of his term he will be
looked upon as the wise, careful and
clear-headed leader of the party.
Let there be a sensible and careful
discussion of the platform for the
republicans of the state. We can be
I'D to date without being destructive,
radical or hot-headed. We can be co1-
servative without being reactionary.
We can be statesmanlike without be-
ing insensible of the best interests
of the people of the country. The
battles of the republican party must
be fought out within the party. Con-
tiicting desires and views can be har-
monized by amicable discussion AID
concessions. Our platform IN this
state should be short, vigorous, posi-
tive, both as regards state and ma
tional questions.

SUNLIGHT FROM "sUNNY JiM."

SUNLIGHT FROM "SUNNY JIM"
Vice-president Sherman has struck
what ought to be republican key
note for the rest of the campaign.
Speaking at Guthrie, in a part of the
country where the demand for tariff
revision has been supposed to be the
strongest, he said that, admitting the
necessity and the certainty Of further
revision, as claimed by the critics OF
the present law, then the policy Of
the country should be to put the re
vision in the hands of party not
pledged and committed TO ripping up
of all schedules and REIMBURSEMENT
of all rates. If the country favors
the protective policy, he said, it should
trust revision only to men vino will
keep that policy in view instead of
calling to such work party historic
ally opposed to protective tariffs.
There can be no doubt that the
protective policy is approved and sup
ported by vast majority OF the vot-
ers in the United States The proof
of that fact is seen the most clearly
whenever the democratic party is
given commission to revise the tar
if. Though it has always Numbered
in it's platforms against the principle
of protection, that party has never
been called to the work of making
a tariff law without disclosing such
divisions in it's ranks as to make 1t
plain that thousands OF its voters
support it either by force of heredit-
airy habit, or for other reasons THAI
it's tariff doctrine, while other thou
sands support it in the expectation
and belief that it can be restrained
from doing what it has pledged itself
to do.
The result has been chaos when
ever the democratic party has had to
make a new tariff law. In the end,
as it was in 1894, that element in it's
electorate who write it's platforms and
force their adoption, is always strong
enough to make sweeping reductions
in the schedules. Before this result
can be reached, however, the delay,
hesitation and uncertainty in the
business world have already brought
about conditions which the new law
can only intensity. Since every man
of intelligence knows that the public
opinion of the country favors the pro-
tective policy as our permanent pol
lev, and since there is but one party
in our politics which consistently
and unitedly supports that policy. the
wisdom of trusting revision only to
the friends and never to the enemies
of tariffs is very clear. The point
seems to have been obscured in the
fog in which we have all been CROP
ing for some time past. Mr.. Sherman
has set the fact out clearly and it
should be made of great value to his
party between now and November.

ARSENIC POISONING.
The Torture That Ensues Before
Death Brings Relief.

OeaIO brings NoloI.
When a single dose Of arsenic 10 SUI
6cient quantity to be felt has been
taken colicky pains. bowel disorder
and perhaps nausea result. In the
course Of an hour after a poisonous
dose has been taken an intense burn
ing pain is felt in the esophagus and
stomach. This spreads to the entire
anterior portion of the lower part Of
the trunk 4 sense of construction at
the throat and an acrid. metallic taste
accompany the pain. Then vomiting
and relaxation of the bowels begin.
As the case progresses the symptoms
increase In intensity. Then comes a
thirst that water will not allay. al
though it apparently increases the
stomach disturbance. The victim
groans and VIRTUES.
Now be impIOres the doctor to save
him. Then he begs to be killed and put
out of pain. The extremities become
icy. The pulse is small. feeble and fire.

abdominal tenderness. The surface Of
the body becomes dark and of that
blush color that medical men call cy

ture. exhaustion becomes collapse. con-
vulsions or coma ensles. and death
ends the agony. THE torture lasts
sometimes from five to twenty hours.
In some cases these symptoms occur,
hut in u modified form. and the doctor
will apparently get the better Of the
disease. The remission will be but for

Seventeen persons were killed by
automobiles in New York city las,
month. Many of them were children
in the streets; and, while children
ought not to be in the streets, II
they are there, they should not be
run over.-Minneapolis Journal.
The above line of argument may
appeal to parents, but not to the
automobilist. There are automobiles
who are firmly of the opinion that
the highways are speedways especial
ly created by God and man for the
benefit and pleasure of the speed
fiend and whoever ventures upon them
does so at his own peril.
