Must Vote For Lower Tariff Rate If
They Are Sincere In Their
Protestations.
ARE FOR OR AGAINST PEOPLE
Either They Favor the Payne-Aldrich
Bill or are For Lower
Tariff.
By Congressman Clyde H. Tavenner.

By Congressman Clyde H. Tavenner.
Washington, April 5.-Congress-
man l. S Pepper of Iowa, Democrat,
looked upon here as prospective
United States Senator from that state,
made speech on Monday, April 2Sth,
in the House of representatives,
which foreshadows the embarrassing
position in which Progressives and
Progressive Republicans who vote
against the Underwood Bill will find
themselves in the next campaign.
Among other things, Mr.. Pepper
said: II want to say to those Pro-
gressive Republicans who sit in this
Chamber and in the body at the other
end o fthe Capitol, that the issue
which they will have to meet is clear
and unmistakable.
"For years they have been joining
with us in the condemnation of the
Payne-Aldrich law. They have won
favor with the people largely because
they have promised to favor real and
substantial reduction of the tariff
rate. : -:-. - - - = .. =. - -, ~, :.
:The opportunity is now presented
to them to show their good faith 1t
will not do for them to hide behind
captious objections to particular
schedules Such tactics will play into
the hands of the standpat Republi-
cans, who, above all things, want the
rate to remain unchanged.
81 want to say to you low-tariff Re-
publicans it is up to you now to dem
onstrate to the country whether or
not you were sincere in your protes-
tation.
"Some of you who are going to vote
against this bill will try to justify
your vote by saying, II am in favor of
lower duties but this particular bill
is not just to my liking" Such an
excuse is worse than absurd; it is dis
honest.
SIS there a progressive or a Pro
gressive Republican in the United
States who honestly believes that if
his party were in power a tariff bill
would be framed which would meet
= the individual views of any one of
their number?
every man who knows anything
knows that if he were to live to be
as old as Methuseleh, and were to be-
come as wise as Solomon, and should
attain the craftsmanship of Daniel
Webster, and were to remain in Con-
gress as long as Joe Cannon, he would
never have an opportunity to vote for
a tariff bill which suited him in every
particular.
&, "a tariff bill of necessity cannot
represent the individual views of any
one man. 1t is bound to be SO framed
as to meet the composite views of a
large number of men.
: $50 what is the use of trying tofoo]
the people about this matter? You
are either for the people or against
them in this fight. Every high pro-
tectionist, every standpatter will vote
against this bill, and he will do SO
because he favors the Payne-Aldrich
law and wants it to remain on the
statute books. If you Progressives
and Progressive Republicans want to
Join with them and desert your prev
ious colors, you are, of course, at lib
erty to do so, but the issue thus form
ed must be met and no one will per-
mitted to evade it.

HuERrA AND WILSON.

When Bryan and Wilson took the
stand that they could not or would
not recognize a government founded
on assination they brought upon
themselves train Of attendent diff
ficulties not easy to overcome.
England recognized Huerta in &C.
cordance with her belief in the primo
iples of international law. We are in
an embarrassing position SO long as
Huerta has the strength to maintain
his position.
The only policy left for US to pursue
is the Fabian" policy the policy OF
delay and waiting-waiting for the
Huerta regime to collapse
At one time it was thought that the
collapse would come very soon, but
Huerta seems to be maintaining him

1t is we'll to look to the future in
attempting to rid the community Of
those eye sores which infect the 80
cial body polite. The attempt to rid
Minneapolis of what may In the future

port of all who are interested in the
future welfare of the city.
When the slum becomes an estab.
lished fact in all the large cities
it is no easy matter to provide for its
inhabitants or rid the city of its
presence, the slum has been the dis.

by the forelock and prohibits and de-
stroys this growing evil it will have
acted more wisely than cities much

MANCHESTER MARrYRs.

Tomorrow Nov 8, is the anniver-
sary of The Manchester Martyrs. The
National anthem Of ireland. God save
ireland" was inspired by their execu.
tion.
In evry Community OF the world
where Irishmen gather together the
names Of Allen, Lar'kin and O'Brien
will be especially honored and revered
on this anniversary.
The finest article written in con-
nection with their execution is from
the pen of A. NJ. Sullivan, from which
the following extracts are taken:
William Philip Allen was born near
the town of Tipperary, in April, 1S48.
Before he was quite three years old
his parents removed to Bandon,
County Cork, where the father, who
professed the Protestant religion, re-
ceived the appointment of bridewell-
keeper. His mother good pious
Cathoic, whose warmes, aspiration
was to see her children in the fold
of the true chucrh. encouraged this
disposition by all the means in her
power. and the result of her pious
care shortly became apparent. A mis-.
sion, opened in the. town by, some
Catholic order of priests, completed
the good work. which the prayers
and the example of an affectionate
mother had commenced; and young
Allen. after regularly attending the
religious services and exercises of
the mission, became so much impress
sed with the truth of the lectures and
sermons he had listened to, that he
formally renowned the alien religion,
and was received. by the respected
parish priest of the town into the
bosom of the Cathoic Church. 1t
was in the summer OF 81 that Allen
last iourneyed to Manchester. He was
then little more than nineteen years
old. 49,
Michael O'Brien was born near Bal
lymaeoda, County Cork, the birthplace
Of the Inflated and heroic Peter Crow
ley. His father rented large farm
in the same parish, but the blight Of
the bad laws which are the curse Of
ireland fell upon him and in the year
1856, the O'Briens were flung upon
the world dispossessed of lands and
home, though they owed no man a
penny at the time. Michael O'Brien
was apprenticed to draper In Yong
hal, and earned. during the period Of
his apprenticeship, the respect and
esteem Of all who knew him. He was
quiet and gentlemanly in manners.
and his character for morality and
good conduct was irreproachable.

THE RED PLAGUE.


Among the most notable voices
raised against socialism and the need
or religious training to combat the
RED Plague, was the voice Of Hon.
Bird G.. Coler at the Procathedral last
Sunday evening.
His analysis of the subject and his
strong appeal for the necessity Of
religious training in our schools has
placed the master fairly och squarely
before the public. Something needs
to be done, something must be done.
Germany recalled the Jesuits-France
recalled the nuns. Rome has defeat
ed Nathan-all of which indicate that
the Catholic Church is the only in
stitution to which the civil authorities
can turn in their dilemma.
The public at large should care
fully peruse Mr.. Coler's address. It
contains much sound advice and the
best exposition Of the evil and the
remedy for popular study which has
been given under local auspices.
The one important thing we need
to do rs to study ourselves. The lay
Catholics should study the situation
closely-The remedy is in their own
hands.
At present the eyes of the world
are upon the church in its fight
against socialism. Others outside the
church are studying the Catholic
attitude.
Many are satisfied with the credit
given but do not understand why 1t
is given.

A French school master has caus-
ed great larm among the young men
OF France. He figured out that the
government must increase the time
during which young men must remain
in the army. The time must be In
creased each year because Of tho
decline in population. This must be
done in order to keep pace with the
German army.
France lost to Germany through
the annexation of Alsace-Loraine to
the latter country 1,597,990 of her
population. Since then France has
increased her population by only
1,O8S,0O0.

Tho Jewish View Of Cremation.

Tho jewish View Of Cremation.
The satholio Church, as is now tol.
cradle we'll known, condemns crema-
ton, partly on practical grounds, and
partly on certain broad, general prin-
ciples: and OF these latter not the
least important Is the fact that In its
origin cremation was associated IN
the minds Of the majority-and still
is. by many Of It's chief supporters
with the denial Of q belief In future
lite. 1t is Interesting to note !. that
high Jewish authorities reprobate the
practice on precisely similar grounds.
In Bavaria the propaganda Of orema-
ton by extreme Socialists and others
has lately become 80 insistent that
even Catholics werc In danger az be-
ing carried away with the movement:
and the Rararian episcopate deemed
Il advisable to issue an explicit state
ment Of the Catholic attitude ON the
question, Tho opposition Of tho Ba.
varian Bishops to the pract1oe has
been strongly seconded by the Chief
RABBIT, Or. NJ. Lerner, who wrote as
