WASHINGTON LETTER.
Special Washington Correspond
ent of The Times.

By Clyde II. Tsvenner.
Tariff isn't the only thing the Re-
publicans are afraid of in the coming
campaign. There is another item
that is giving them worry. They are
wondering how they can answer the
charges of corruption, incompetency,
and maladministration that have been
brought out and proven by the vari-
Gus Democratic investigating commit
tees.
Republican leaders realize that this
problem is going to present excep-
tional difficulties by reason of the
fact that when the Democrats started
to investigate those same Republicans
shouted in derision, declaring there
was nothing to investigate; that I'M
der Republican rule the affairs of the
government had been conducted in
the only perfect manner, and that the
whole purpose Of the Democrats was
to make political thunder. 81
But that there was really need of
some investigating in and around
Washington was simply proven
before the inquiries into the re-
suits of Republican rule had fairly
started, and despite all the rev.
elatoins Of extravaganza and NAL
administration that have come to
light, many of the investigating
committees are just getting ready
to 60 to work. So far they have on
ly scratched the surface.
The Moss committee brought to
light the shameful manner in which
the plotters in the pure food bureau
stripped Dr.. Wiley Of an power, and
made farce of the law designed to
protect the public from the greed Of
INSCRIPTIONS food dopers. !.

A RESPONSIBLE POSITION.

Editor Times,
Butler, Mo.
Nv dear SIR. -


Butler, Mo.
My dear SIR: "".
For the very kind and generous
defense of myself in a recent editor
ial in your paper desire to express
to you my sincere gratitude. This is,
so far as l have seen, the only article
in a Democratic paper that referred
unfavorably to my appointment as
state capitol commissioner.
Now, as ever before, the Democrat
ic press and the Republican press also,
has been most kind and generous to
me. The appointment as state capt.
tol commissioner came to me without
any solicitation on my part and
against my protest and l feel even
now that l made mistake in accept
ing the position as l enter upon its
duties and begin to realize how oner-
GUS and responsible its duties will be.
However, am going to do my best
and with the kind approval of such
friends as yourself am greatly en-
couraged to go forward and endeavor
to perform a service that will be sat-
isfactory to the state.
Sincerely your friend,
E. w. Stephens.

About the only fights with which the

the only engagements which are al

the case.
The writer knows of a young mid
shipman, coming from hardy Ken
lucky mountaineer stock, who re-
ceived his early training solely from
his parents in a cabin back in the
hills of Kentucky. At his moth
er's knee he learned the lessons of
right and wrong from the old family
Bible, and out on the rocky hills, his
old daddy taught him that a bullet
will 60 where the gun is aimed, and
we cannot but speculate upon the
probable happenings should the 80
cial Board" ever attempt to rule out
his good old parents who are after
all just plain folks. Someone's sensi-
tive feelings would be hurt by the
young Kentuckian, and it's highly
probable that the social board, If
composed of men, would be called
upon to decide the question with
pistols and coffee. Fortunately
there are many young men in the
academy who are yet uncivilized
enough to regard the common par
ents from which they sprung as Of
more importance than so-called So
ciety, and it will be interesting to
note the effcts Of some Of the rulings |

TROUBLE AHEAD FOR SOCIAL
EXAMINING BOARD.

Again the nation has been saved
and again by our navy, but in man
ner so different from that in which
the saving operations were per-
formed in the past that we, out here
in the uncivilized Mississippi Valley,
can hardly recognize the handiwork
of the gallant old navy of history.
And this time saved, not from so
commonplace a danger as that Of a
foreign foe or an invading enemy,
but from an insidious monster which
struck at the bulwark of our present
imperialistic government, our much
worshipped 400" The powers that
be have in recent edict decreed in
effect that hereafter women at
tending the social affairs at the Unit
ed States Naval Academy will be re-
quired to submit proof of their social
standing to a committee created for
that purpose. Those unfortunate
''plebian" women who have the ''hon-
or" to be the mothers or sisters or
even the boyhood sweethearts Of Un-
Gle Sans baby tars will probably be
permitted to read in the public prints
of the brilliant social life at the Acad-
envy, but unless their names appear
in the nations social blue Book"
of who's who in America, they will
not be permitted to attend, no, not
even to take the tiniest peek into the
sacred confines of the ball room
where the elect are disporting them
selves in brass buttons and line silks.

he owned.
Il don't know, Wood replied.
"How many chauffeurs do you en-
ploy?" asked the Judge.
Il never tried to keep track of
them," said the wool magnate.
Imagine man so rich that he can't
keep track of the number of automo-
biles he owns! Then reflect on how
many of the working men who are
forced to purchase Mr.. Woods high
ly protected products are unable to
keep track of the number of wooden
suits they or their children own.
Protection Helps Foreigners.
The Stanley steel investigating
committee has made public the ex-
port prices of steel trust products.
This is a very important piece of
news, inasmuch as it shows great
difference in prices in favor of for
eigners, and therefore, probably will
result in reduction, if not the re-.
moval, OF the tariff on steel.
The figures show that the trust
charges American consumers so. 81
per gross ton for steel plates. while
supplying the identical article to for
eigners for $29.04. The unprotected
foreigner thus receives an advantage
OF 1888 over the protected American
consumer. The advantage given the
foreigner in steel rails is 1854 per
ton; in tin plate, $l2.54, and in struc-
tural Steel $3.50.
Query: II the steel trust sells its
products cheaper to foreigners than
to home consumers, who is the actual
beneficiary Of the American protect
i've system2 The foreigner or the
home consumer?

nivance of Republican administra-
ton, ostensibly to prevent a panic,
but actually to stifle its main compel
itor. 1t was further brought out that
men were acting as counsel for the
steel trust while receiving money
from the government as trust bust
ers."
The probe Of the state department
revealed that money was expended
for one thing, and charged to anoth-
er, while the committee on expendi-
lures in the navy department discov-
cred that more than three million
dollars worth of supplies were taken
from the Washington navy yard with
out an accounting, and that the book
keeping system in use there is abso-
lutely ridiculous.
These are but a few of the many
illustrations that could be given to
show the value of honest investiqa-
tons.
Wickersham Again.
II am surprised" says Attorney
General Wickersham, THAT the bust
ness men of this country have not
taken more advantage of that section
OF the law which permits the collec-
ton of three-fold damages when they
have been injured by trust. That
section is a powerful lever, and
would make those who are illegally
organized have more respect for the
law"
Likewise, the people are surprised
that Mr.. Wickersham, as attorney
general, does not take advantage Of
the law which makes it possible to
send guilty trust magnates to Jail.
They believe 1t would be an even
more powerful lever"
