Blame Rest on RooseveIt.

The chickens do certainly come
home to roost, in national as we'll as
in individual affairs. But for Mr..
Roosevelt's spoliation Of Panama. but
for the shock that he gave to Spanish
American confidence In our integrity.
there would be no such fanatical jeal-
ousy and suspicion on the part OF
Mexico as we see today and there
would be no doubt of our ultimate mo-
tives, whatever we might think it nee
essary to do. A European warship
might today land troops IN Mexico
with less danger Of confiagration
than was caused by the dozen Ameri-
can soldiers who carelessly strolled
across the bridge at Ell Paso. Ameri-
can interests of incalculable magni-
tude are now at stake in Mexico and
the burden OF our responsibility for
those interests has been rendered dou-
bly, grievous by the action Of Mr..
Roosevelt. who first committed an act
of piracy In the name OF the American
people and then boosted Of 1t before

Many. and Various Kinds Of csrlnss
overrun Hostelry IN Puerto
R|co City.

Robert o. Bailey. assistant secre-
tary Of the treasury. has a sense OF
humor.
A few years ago. when Bailey was
working for the Associated Press. he
accompanied the rivers and harbors
committee on their tour in various
places. including Puerto Rico. When
they landed at Puerto Rico he heard
an Irish stewardess on the boat ex-
press wish that she might purchase
a native dog to take home as SOU
venir. That was enough for Bailey.
He excused himself from the rest OF
the party, engaged an interpreter, and
went up through the marts. where he
told every man. woman and child who
would listen that there was a woman
at yon hotel whose soul craved a Puer-
to Rican dog.
Within thirty minutes q vast con-
course OF natives, each leading from
one to four ill-favored dogs, had gath
cred at the hotel that harbored the
rivers and harbors committee. and
certain members Of the committee,
who got tired Of stepping on dog
every time they moved. were consider
ably peeved over the situation. For
q time no man dared rise on his tip
toes lest be make dog squeal shriliy
when he let his heels down again.
It had been planned to give the Wis
TORS something OF an ovation. but
their hotel looked so much like
pound during hydrophobia scare that
few Of the entertainment committee
could get within handshaking dis
lance
But the Irish stewardess succeeded
in buying a dog. She got It for is
cents.
And says Robert o. Bailey. that
was the only feature Of the day that
made me feel guilty. for she was a
Woodworking woman, and she got
cheated"

CAN SHOW A CLEAN RECORD
Done Their Duty to Their Con-
stItuents and Party.

The one issue on which a Demo
cratic house was elected in 1910 was
the high cost of living and the down.
ward revision of the tariff. Chairman
Underwood of the committee on ways
and means is fully justified in claim
ing credit for his party for having full
filled its pledges so far as lay in its
power.
The tariff bills passed during the
extra session Of congress last year
came to naught through the vetoes Of
Mr.. Taft. During the present session
the house has passed the wool bill,
the sugar bill, the metals bill and
the chemical bill. and not. of them
has yet been favorably acted upon in
the senate or even brought to vote.
The failure Of tariff revision since
the 1910 elections does not rest with
the Democratic house. The RESPONSE
bility for failure belongs to the senate
and the president. both Republican.
Never at any time has the Demo
tariff issue than it is today. It has
been true to its promises and to the
needs and demands of the country
No other issue of the day is of great
er interest and Importance to the peo-
pie than lower taxes on the neces-
saries of life at period when prices
are excessive and artificially stimu-
lated by the system of high protec-
ton. The tariff is still in politics. in
spite of the optimistic plans Of Mr..
Taft and because of his veto policy,
and in the coming election, on their
record in the house, the Democrats
have all the advantage of position.

COST HIS SALARY TO SLEEP
Newly Elected Senator Discovers That

A newly elected senator came on
early to Washington to arrange for
rooms. and had an object lesson fur

campaign He wanted to start in

he was two blocks up the avenue.
He tried another hotel: moderate

I'd burn up with fever If had to
sleep at that price!"
The salary OF a senator Is $f,oVV
and it is figured on the high level OF
simple living" in Washington that he
ought to part with that much for as
sured rest at a good hotel. But the
new senator didn't feel that way about
It. Finally 1t was suggested that he
might take room at the simple hotel

One fact. one that every man o.
practical sense can grasp. was very
clearly set forth IN the speech OF 2
prominent Democratic leader at the
Reform club:
mo doubt there are many reasons
why modern business has been organ
lied OF, lines Of wide combination.
No doubt. too, there are many causes
natural as well as artificial, which lie
underneath the rise in prices. but
however economists may argue this
matter. or whatever general laws and
tendencies they may disclose, we have
only to read the testimony taken at
trials instituted by the government or
Investigations instituted by congress-;
We have only to Dig little way into
the tariff schedules themselves and
get experts to explain to us the real
significance OF here a phrase and
there a fraction. to see the whole
business laid bald and bare before us
BY which systematic advantage has
been taken OF the tariff to raise prices
without awaiting the assistance Of
economic laws. and without regarding
either Justice or the rights Of the pub
lie. The tariff ia the mother OF arti-
fetal prices because It is the foster
mother of monopoly. and only when
these roots Of the whole evil thing are
touched shall we begin to get control
Of the forces which have all but mas
tered us"
To paraphrase the word OF the H.
lustrious French statesman. Leon
Gambetta: The tariff. that Is the enc
myl" And It is an enemy that every
man with vote can get at-Nev

LID GOES ON
BOXING GAME

The many hours Of the boxing
game which has always been popular
in this city. are disappointed over the
prospects for the sport in this city.
Wilmington can boast of several
good lighters who have been forced
to go outside of this city to display
their talent.
Even Chester, is staging bouts with
the local boys as head liners and the
bouts, aside from being great draw
ing cards. have been as clean as any
in the country and have been most
satisfactory to the officials Of that
city
There is little reason why bouts
should not be staged in this city and
the patrons of the squared circle en-
abled to see the game without hay
ing to go to Chester. Philadelphia and
the nearby towns.
The bouts conducted under the
auspices of the Delaware Militia Ath-
letic Association, with Furman G..
Cole, as manager, last spring, were
the best and cleanest ever held in
this city. These bouts were staged
only after an opinion had been secur-
ed from City Solicitor Hastings de-
claring the game legal if conducted
along proper lines.
Yet despite this opinion and the
reports of all those. who attended the
bouts. including policemen sent there
by the municipal authorities, and
who brought back fine reports as to
the cleanness of the game, the COM
mission. without giving any reason,
put an end to the sport in this city.
