THOSE LEAGUERS.

For the Platteville normal school, the
state is going to purchase twenty three
acres of land and erect an agricultural
building. While rejoicing right down
in his heart over the good fortune of
our historic educational institution,
Editor Bishop of The Bloomington
Record can not refrain from having a
little fun with some of the home rule
leaguers in and around Platteville.
And so, by way of good natured banter,
he says:
Let's see-were not good many leading citi-
zens of Platteville much concerned year ago
last fall about what they termed the tremendous
waste of state funds in expenditures very SINH
lar to the above? Why do they not protest now
and 'save" the poor, downtrodden taxpayers

school: Where are the officers of the Home

OLD-TIME FALLACY EXPOSED
Republican Hgh-Tariff Doctrine Has
Eeen ConcIusively Proved to
Be of No Worth.

1t is announced by a friendly inter-
prefer Of Wall street sentiment that
the street would welcome even the
nominate n of Colonel Roosevelt by
the Republicans if that would unite
the party, "as it sees no other way to
q re-establishment of the high tariff -
The same news columns carry this
extract from an address by George z.
Roberts, twice director Of the United
States mint under different Republican
administrations and now associated
with leading Wall street bank:
J eff anything has been clearly demon
strated in recent months it is that you
cannot have permanently one-sidod
trade. You soon reach the point
where you have to lend to your GUS
toner to enable him to continue his
purchases, and evidently that policy
cannot go on indefinitely
This is now not merely all obvious
theoretical truth. 1t is truth which
is being driven home with practical
force by every days developments in
the country's fast-expanding foreign
trade. The permanently one-sided
trade" which is the theory and the
end Of the old Republican tariff pol
icy has gone for good if America is to
hold it's new position in the commerce
of the world.
AS against this Wall street forecast
of a presidential campaign to re-estab-
lish extortionate tariffs there stands
the fact that great body Of the Re-
publican party and even section of
Wall street are being educated away
from this position by the mighty force
of new experience in economic prac-
tice

Foolish "Aruument."

"a surplus is Republican, deficit
Democratic" Democratic extrava.
gance, Republican economy" "Repub-
lican prosperity, Democratic hard
times" these and similar ancient sa-
cred texts of pre-Adamite Republican
ism crowd into the mind as the st.
Louis Globe-Democrat, gazing mourn
fully from the battlements of the bat
tered "citadel of protection" utters
these words of woe:
democratic papers are asking what
the Republican party would have done
in the face of the financial condition
that confronts the present administra.
ton. The question is vain one, for
if the Republican party had been in
power this condition would not have
confronted u.s.
We believe it, because it is impos-
sible. But why veil the awful truth ?
Why spare the erring Democracy the
chastisement it merits. If the Repub
lican party had been in power, war
wouldn't have dared to break out.

BURTON, TARIFF TAxER.

Senator Burton of Ohio, presidential
aspirant, delivered regular old fash
toned high tariff speech over in Mil
waukee last Friday night. He wants a
tariff commission. But he is opposed
to giving the commission any power to
fix rates. No, that divine right long
exercised by the bene6ciaries of the
spoliation system, through their repre-
sentatives in the congress, must not be
taken away. The only power he would
confer upon such body is the ascer
tainment of facts. The majority in con
gress was made up of men of Senator
dent LincOln's commissioner of the rev
enue, David A Wells. made his last au
nual report. But they didn't want facts
they wanted indirect subsidies, through
tariff taxation: and so they refused to
print their commissioner report, and
abolished the office The reports OF
every tariff commission since that time
have been despitefully used by the men
who are now demanding that another
commission be created to perform a
simple duty that has been delegated to
the federal trade commission.
Right down in their hearts the chief
objection the Tories have to the present
federal revenue law is, that. through in
come taxes, it makes wealth contribute
large share to the support Of the gov
eminent, instead of placing the whole
burden, with trust bounties added, upon
the ultimate consumer.

NOT TRUE PATRIOTS
Republicans Put Party Before
Country.
Money Needed for National Defense
Should Be Voted Without Quib-
ble-Democratic Record Is
One of Honor.

The most foolish exhibition of parti-
sanship witnessed in this country for
many day is that participated in by
the Republicans of the house and sen,
ate when they voted solidly against
the extension of the emergency war
taxes for one year.
1t is no excuse for this narrowness
to say that the measure was partisan
and that if the Republicans had been
in power they would have handled it
differently. The measure was not
partisan. If the Republicans had
been in control they would have been
compelled to take similar action. In
fact, the emergency war taxes are the
same in principle as those levied by
Republicans during the Civil and the
Spanish-American wars.
The pretense that high or low tar
ifs, tariffs for plumber or tariffs for
revenue, had anything to do with this
question or the situation that produced
it was equally false The emergency
taxes were made necessary by the war
in Europe, which has dislocated COM
merce and industry to an extent never
before known
Several weeks before the war with
Spain began, every Democrat in the
house of Representatives voted with
the Republican majority in favor of a
$50,000O00 appropriation for national
defense. The money now derived from
the emergency taxes is just as neces-
sary to national honor and security as
servedly in the hands Of President Nc
Kinley in 1898. The first step toward
national defense is to keep a solvent
treasury

 FISH PACK

According to advices received the ninth circuit court Of appeals has sus- tained the decision of Judge Robert w. Jennings against the fishing com panies operating in Alaska and these companies will now be compelled to pany into the territorial treasury all moneys due for back taxes.
 The amount involved in the decis- ions will be over $250,OOO, although the exact sum is not known. Twenty of the fishing companies operating in Alaska, through their attornews. signed a stipulation with the terri torial counsel agreeing to pay the taxes. with interest at per cent on all moneys from the time due until paid providing the decision went against them. They also provided that all fines and penalties should be waived. 4 test case was made against certain of the fishing companies and all are now to abide by the decisions Of the cases.
 The cases were brought in the dis trict court at Juneau against the Hoo. nah Packing Company. the Alaska Sal, mon Company and the PacificAmeri, can Fisheries Company. Judge Jen- nings decided against the fishing com panies. and they appealed the case. The decision handed down recently confirms the decision of the Juneau court.
 The taxes involved are for certain tax on each case of the output of all canneries for 1914, 1915 and for a part of 1913. All future taxes against the canHeFies levied under the laws of Alaska are involved in the decision

BUBON|C PLAGUE SPREADING IN
 EGYPT

ATHENS. Greece Sept. IA. - The epidemic of infantile paralysis in New York is riyalled by an epidemic Of smallpox in Athens that is taking q heavy toll of both children and adults in the city proper and in Piraeus. the port of Athens. Incidentally, Greek ships arriving from Alexandria report the spread of the buboniC plague in Egypt, and cholera has broken out in the island of Castelloriza, due to the arrival of refugees from Asia Minor. A quarantine has been estab- Hshed between the island and the ports of Greece.
 The epidemic of smallpox in Athens has resulted in compulsory yaccina- tion or representation, but it is diff cult to carry out the orders, as the supply of vaccine is limited. and the movement of the demobilized troops  into the interior makes it difficult to combat the spread of the disease.
 The remarkable feature of the cpl demic is the reliance that is being placed upon the efficiency of one of the sacred ikons, or images of Christ. The ikon of St. Barbara of Nicomedia. in Asia Minor, has been brought with every pomp and circumstance from the ancient church of the convent of Daphni, near Athens, and set up in the church of Chryssospiliotissa, in the quarter where the smallpox is talk ing its heaviest toll.
