FREE TOLLS FOR OUR SHIPS.

The American people generally will
certainly back up congress in de-
handing that vessels bearing the flag
of our nation shall have superior priv
ileges in the Panama canal over those
which do not The canal is on
American soil and we are paying the
bills for construction. 1t is therefore
but right that our merchantmen shall
have rights above those of rival ma
lions. 1t is all right for England to
try to secure the best possible bar
gain for her great merchant fleet,
but her statesmen are but playing a
game of bluff Our congress will
never be guilty of trucking before
the British lion. Our ships going
from one American port to another by
way of the canal should have free
tolls, and those in the foreign trade
special consideration. We maintain a
protective tariff just to favor and
build up our own nation and actuated
along the same lines we will so ar
range the tolls for the new canal that
the United States shall be the largest
gamer by it's construction.

THE DOOR OF HOPE.

Colonel Roosevelt's action in clos
ing the door of the Chicago conven-
ton to southern negroes means more
than the mere exclusion of the con-
testing delegates from that body. 1t
means that if elected president Roose-
welt will appoint no negroes to office
in communities where white men OBJ
ject to such preferment. If the pro-
gressive party is to be white mans
party in the south until the white
men are ready to recognize the ne
groes, it must mean that the white
men will have monopoly of the
plums. And if the colored man is to
be barred from recognition in the
party council and from reward from
the resources OF the party. what, in
SEPARATION will he have to take an in
terest in politics in the hope of event
ually lettering his condition?
Nj. Roosevelt vas confronted b.
this question back in 1902, before he
had thought Of winning votes for him
self in the south and while the door
of hope" for the southern colOred man
was in his keeping The answer he
gave then was different from the an
swer he gave to the negroes in Chi
cago the other day. He answered the
question in practical way by appoint
ing colored men in the south to fed
eral Offices At Charleston, S. c., he
appointed colored man of recognized
character and attachments to the Of
fee of collector of the port, and he
insisted grimly on keeping the man
on the job in spite of refusal by the
southern democratic senators to con-
sent to his confirmation. When a
correspondent wrote to the president
advancing just such arguments as the
colonel advocated the other day in
Chicago, Roosevelt replied as follows:
at has been my consistent policy
in every state where their numbers
warranted it to recognize colored men
of good repute and standing in max
Jag appointments to Office. These APP
of colored men have in
no state made more than a small

Mason's Prose Poems.
BY WALT MASON.


Old Faker, of the gold brick store,
spent rolls of roubles by the score,
announcing special sales of cheese and
setting hens and bumblebees- These
goods, he said, were fresh and clean,
the finest goods he'd ever SEEM He
had to sacrifice them all to buy his
stock of junk for fall. All goods had
been marked down one-third; the PEG,
pie took him at his word and blew
themselves for shoes and hats and
garments that would hide their Stats.
And soon they found the things they
bought, .k> Faker's promises, were
rot; the goods that he declared so
nice were mighty dear at any price.
He fooled them this way divers times,
and gathered in a lot of dimes, but
soon they tumbled to his game and
swore at mention of his name. THE
cobwebs grew in Takers store; he
has no business any more, and every
time man goes past, he signs: THE
sheriff's come at last" There's moth
ing like the truth in ads if you would
gather in the scads. Just fool your
patrons once or twice-the customers
who have the price-and you will see
them chase themselves to buy from
t'other merchants shelves.

JUSTICE TO PRESIDENT TAFT.

One would think to hear the de-
nunciation of the administration OF
President Taft, that he had been fav-
orable to giving away to private cor
porations, the mineral and forest
lands, yet part of the government
domain. The effort is made to show
that alone through the election of MIR.
Roosevelt can the valuable lands and
water powers now owned by the gov
.ernment be kept from passing to the
hands of greedy corporations. AS
matter of fact, Mr.. Taft has been
foremost in a sane policy of conserv-
ing the great natural resources of the
country. He has recently been fight
ing bills about to pass congress Civ
ing water power privileges to private
corporations, insisting that they must
submit to governmental control and
set aside a certain percentage OF the
profits for the use of the government
in opening up and Improving the pub
die lands. The Taft administration
has presented a plan for alloting coal
lands, for the use of cities. The plan
calls for the patenting of six hundred
and forty acres of government coal
land for each city, and one hundred
and sixty acres for each town, under
conditions which would call for the
prompt and continual development OF
coal deposits. The cities most bene-
flied would be those OF Colorado,
Wyoming, Utah, Montana and Idaho.
The benefits of such policy can be
readily seen, for it would insure the
cities benefited a supply of coal at
actual cost with which electricity
could be generated for lighting, heat
ing and power as we'll as pumping wa
ter. President Taft's administration
is on record as against the policy OF
giving the full title of any coal lands
to corporations, but granting them
with a right of government supervis-
ion and reverting to the government
if the mines are not worked accord
ing to agreement. Denunciations OF
President Taft and his administra-
ton for failure to pursue a policy or
conservation of natural resources OF
the country yet under government
control, are false as the record will
show.

The Days Gone BY.

(By James Whitcomb Riley)
O, the days gone by! 0, the days
gone by!
The apples in the orchard and the
pathway through the rye;
The chirrup of the robin, and the
whistle of the quail,
AS they piped across the meadow
sweet as any nightingale.
When the bloom was on the clover,
and the blue was in the sky,
And my happy heart brimmed over
in the days gone by.
In the days gone by, when my naked
feet was tripped
BY the honeysuckle tangles where
the water-lilies dripped.
And the ripples of the river Tipped
the moss along the brink
Where the placid-eyed and lazy
footed cattle came to drink,
And the fitting snipe stood fearless of
the truant's hayward cry,
And the splashing of the swimmer,
in the days gone by.
0, the days gone by! o, the days gone
by!
The music of the laughing lip, the
the luster of the eye;
The childish faith in fairies, and Alad-
din's magic ring
The simple soul-reposing glad be-
lief in everything
When life was like story, holding
neither sob nor sigh,
In the golden, olden glory of the
days gone by.

Freedom.

Is true Freedom but to break
Fetters of our own dear sake,
And, with leathern hearts forget
That we owe mankind debt?
No! True freedom is my share
All the chains our brothers wear.
And, with heart and hand to be
Earnest to make others free.
They are slaves who fear to speak
For the fallen and the weak;
They are slaves who will not choose
Hatred, soothing and abuse,
Rather than in silence shrink
From the truth they needs must
think;
They are slaves who dare not be
In the right with two Or three.

themselves of the crushing power of
the steel trust. Mr.. Taft would have
told the visiting gentlemen that they
knew the antitrust laws and he would
not undertake to grant them in advance
immunity from prosecution.
OF the two men Taft is by far the
best when it comes to which will
stand firmest under pressure from
the great money powers. AS showing
what congressman think of the con-
duct of Roosevelt as to the steel
trust, Congressman Gillicuddy spoke
as follows on Friday of last week:
Referring to the absorption of the
Tennessee Coal and Iron company by
the steel corporation and the alleged
acquiescence of then President RoOse-
velt Mr.. McGillicuddy said Mr.. Roose-
velts action was the most humiliating
surrender the country had ever
known" and that the former presi
dent had sold himself out to the steel
trust-heels, hide and teeth"
Let us suppose for the sake of
looking the situation in the face, that
Mr.. Roosevelt became president again
next March He would be powerless
to bend congress to his will. Both
branches of that body would not be
ready to do his bidding. The demo-
Gratis would not consider it policy to
make his administration success.
There is bound to be a large group
of republicans not his friends and he
could not have majority with him
in both branches who would pass his
radical measures The command that
every candidate for office must sup
port him or fight, means to arouse the
fiercest antagonism and strenuous op-
position to his policies from every
man who is elected despite him. The
same intense opposition which the
insurgent republicans are now giving
unjustly to President Taft would be
meted out to Roosevelt if he was in
the presidential chair. The persons
who think that the election of Mr..
Roosevelt means the putting on the
law books all the demands of the Chi
cago confession of faith, know little Of
the state of public opinion which
would be existing among his enemies.
His administration could not be a.
success as far as new radical legiSla-
ton would make it so.
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1912-08-14
THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN.

One reason why Mr.. Taft is not pop
ular with the trust magnates is that
he has shown them no terms in en-
forcing the laws. Taft has turned a
deaf ear to the emissaries of big bus
mess who have pleaded that the COM
bine about to be prosecuted was act
ing perfectly legally. The reply of
our brave president has been that he
would not undertake to usurp the
province of the courts, and would not
intervene to stay proceedings. He
has held that the courts and juries
would do full justice, and if there was
no guilt, that verdict saying so
would result. Let no one for mo-
ment suppose that the many alleged
combines which have been investi-
gated and brought into court have not
used every known measure to cause
Taft to call off the department of
justice. An impartial enforcement of
law has been the Taft rule, and now
he must suffer for it unless The voters
stand by him as they ought to do.
Just now the papers are giving
much space to what is called the
Stanley report Mr.. Stanley is the
chairman of a committee of the house
of representatives which has been in
vestigating the working of the steel
combine. There is one point that ev-
cry man knows is fact, and it is that
one Of the great grips Of the steel
monopoly is the grasping of the ore
lands of the south. That purchase
was strictly illegal so the report says.
Further, the purchase is made the
leading ground for the suit began by
the government to dissolve the COM
bine. Let it be therefore understood
that Mr.. Roosevelt was consulted
about the purchase of the ore lands
by men way up in the steel business,
and that he gave his consent that
the sale be made He makes no de-
NAL of the matter His defense is
that on the facts as presented him
that night by the representatives of
Morgan, it appeared the best thing to
do. 1t is therefore pretty audacious
thing for Mr. Roosevelt to assume
to be the special champion of the
Dear people, in their warfare to rid
