E. 8 P. STARTS
PRELIMINARY WORK

The news brought to Eurck
from Palisade Friday afternoon
by j. A. Gilbert that an engineer
and two surveyors on Wednesday
morning had commenced the wo rk
Of locating a new roadbed out of
Pailsade for the Eureka & Pail
SADIE Railway. was most welcome
to Eurekans, and Mr.. Gilbert was
as given the ri ad hand and kept
busy for some time repeating the
good tidings.
Mr.. Gilbert informs the Sentinel
that the work now being done out
Of Palisade for the f. & p. is to
determine tire cost of building the
road through the narrows on the
east side Of the canyon and for a
distance Of abou eight miles, it
being figured that this ditance will
about cover the badly washed out
portion Of the old road. and by
running a grade along the hills on
the east side of the canyon it is
hoped to escape any future food
waters.
When the f. & P.'s roadbed was
washed out and the company put
cut Of business about l8 months
ago, the water not only washed
out the road through the narrow
canyon. but it. cut deep gorges in
many places and left the narrow
way in such condition that to
rebuild railroad through the
canyon now presents some engi-
neering and much difficult work,
all it is generally stated that the
cost Of rebuilding this eight miles
will amount to considerable more
than will be necessary to repair
the other 76 miles into Eureka
Had it not been for this eight
miles of difficult and costly work,
there is lite doubt but that the T..
& p. would have been operating its
trains over the road in 30 days
after the wash out.
Besides the engineer and
surveyors now at work near
Palisadc, one of the head men of
construction company is also
there checking up the work, and
he is n doubt preparing a bid for
doing the construction work.
While the present work is only
Of preliminary nature. it looks
pretty good to the people at this
end Of the line, and bears out the
prOsphesy of the Sentinel's IN
formant of three week ago that
it had then been decided to rebuild
the road, and it WIS thought that
s)me movement looking to his
end would be made after Sep.

Let the good work go on

HAS TAFT COMMITTED SUICIDE

In his veto Of the wool bill Mr..
Taft spoke Of the popular
desire, which 1 fully recognize, for
reduction Of duties believed to be
excessive" That desire he had
encouraged by promising honest,
downward revision. mo sooner
was the Payne-Aldrich traiff bill
passed than he condemned the
wool schedule as "indefensible."

A GOOD PRoVIpER.

by weight. and discussing a bakers
objection to this idea, he said with a

that II is better for the people not to

defeat in The present Payne tariff
bill, and II am quite willing to
admit THAT allowing the wooller
schedule to remain where lit is il
not compliance with the terms
of the platform as l interpret il
and as it is generally understood"
To the Chicago Association OF
Trade, only last De; ember. he
gave his pledge Ito promote the
prompt elimination of instances
of injustice in the tariff law"
Yet when congress takes him at
his word and seeks to lower in
defensibIe duties and to elimi-
nate instances of injustice in the
tariff, Mr.. Taft blocks all relief
with his vetoes.
The tariff board will report
next December on wool and
woolens, is Mr.. Taft's excuse for
denyi9 the popular demand for
reduction of excessive duties.
There are dozen and more other
schedules. How long must con
gre55 wait on the tariff board
before undertaking work of tariff
revision? Is,it to be prohibited
Indefinitely from !. revising the
Paync-Aldrich tariff? Must it
accept the tariff boards figures
implicitly and bin dly follow. it's
findings in order to secure Mr..
Taft's consent to tariff revision? Is
scientific tariff to be submitted
raedy-made to congress piece by
piece, by piece, for ratification
on:y as Mr.. Taft sees fit.
Neither Mr.. Taft nor the tariff
board can change schedules or
frame tariffs. That is the bust
ne SIS Of congress. The tariff board
has no even the power to
compel the giving of testimony.
BY the Payne-Aldrich' law the
president was authorized to
employ three experts to assist him
in applying the maximum and
minimum duties.
The sixty-firts congress republi-
can n both branches, refused to
pass the bill creating the tariff
commission recommended by Mr..
Taft. In his own words. Under
the discretionary power vested in
me appointed board as near
like the one described in the bill
which was lost as possible. 1t was
Mr.. Taft who directed them to
make an examination into schedule
K"
Apparently it is the president
who shall designate which
schedules shall be investigated by
the board, and when. if congress
makes an appropriation for its use
after July ], next. In the mtan-
time must congress not touch the
tariff. Are the abuses of the
Paync-Aldrich tariff to be held
sacred. Is that the meaning of
Mr.. Tafts veto pol
BY OhstuctIng tariff reform Mr..
Taft has male the tariff the issue
in 1912. He has taken sides with
the high prOtcc'i onists that stand
pat on the Pdync-Aldrich tariff,
its defects and its instances of
injustice. Ky his single act he has
prevented revision of indCfcnsiblc
duties. Solely by reason of his
veto the worst abuses Of the tariff
arc preserved and tic people arc
denied the relief they we're just
led to expect.
No arguments ian change the
facts, no evasion excuse them.
Again. The World asks. Has
Taft committed suicide? New
