Good Advertising. Sam Gordon got more advertising out of his luncheon with Roosevelt than Ed Young drew from the epis- tolary combat with Jim Tawney, but Sam may yet be troubled with politi- cal indigestion. THIS DATE IN HISTORY. July 30. of Canada. 1718, FROM THE ST. PAUL DISPATCH: Local Political Rule. Third party leaders, with mana- gerial instincts, are treading upon delicate, if not dangerous, ground in the assumption of a position that will tend to convey the impression that they are dictating the policy to be pursued and the program to be adopted in the several state cam- paigns. Perhaps these leaders are without the slightest desire to inter- fere in purely local matters which can be better handled and directed by local authority, but they incur the risk of being misunderstood with the result of inevitable damage to their cause. The current Gordon case is an instance in illustration and consid- erable explaining was necessary to clear it up and make it apparent to the Progressives of Minnesota that the course to be pursued in this state had not been definitely and irre- vocably determined at a conference between Colonel Roosevelt and ont of the gubernatorial candidates of this state. Similar incidents have occurred with other states. Senator Dixon, who seems to be in authority in a general managerial capacity, may be unwilling to be forced -into the atti- tude of dictating what shall be the course of this or that state, but he has been somewhat: unfortunate in announcing his views with a certain oracular style that has been ‘mista- ken for command, when it meant merely advice. The new party, if it is to make headway at the outset, must avoid the slightest appearance and the re- motest suggestion of bossism. Above all things it is devoted to battling the sinister results of bossism in the old organizations and the last thing it could afford now is to permit even the faintest indication of dictation by those in whom temporary authority is reposed. If the people are to rule, as the first principle of the new par- ty declares, their first assumption of authority will be in the management of their local affairs in their own way. It might be repeated that probably the national managers are the entire accord with this view and entertain no other. If so, however, they should make themselves understood and dis- sipate all doubt. Minnesota had some misgivings which had to be cleared up -and other states might require the same treatment. Same Tariff Problem. The passage by the senate of the bill reducing the import duties upon certain grades of sugar, as a step in the direction of lightening the tax burdens of the people, opens up large possibilities of discussion of tariff policies and emphasizes the absence of anything like a definite stand by any political organization on the question of the benefit to the larger number of the people. The Republi- can platform runs toward the protec- tive feature and the Democratic pro- fession of faith is based upon the revenue feature. Neither attempts to indicate what proporti¥n or char- acter of the people is to be benefited, or how, by the execution of the par- ticular line of policy it advocates. The admission of sugar free of duty will cheapen the commodity and therefore work a saving In every home in America. That will scarcely be denied. The saving will not be equal to the duty taken off, as the refiner and broker will absorb their proportion, but it will be conceded that all but a fraction of the tariff will be represented in the reduced cost of sugar. Louisiana as a great cane state || and Colorado as a great beet pro- ducer protest the proposition to re- duce the sugar tariff as a blow to the farmers and planters of their re- spective states. This brings up the great question involved in the doc- trine of protection: Shall a tariff on a certain manufactured article permit higher wages to be paid cer- tain labor; shall tariff on sugar or on wheat benefit certain farmers and planters, when in both cases and in all such cases the cost of the higher wages and the price of the benefit conferred is paid by the whole peo- ple? This is really the tariff problem that is up to the people today for solution. It will not be solved by the success of either the Republican or Democratic candidate for presi- dent, interpreting such success as the indorsement of his party platform. Neither platform goes into the prac- ticalities or beyond the usual plati- Berkshire, England, don, Oct, 16. 1644. came governor of Canada. 1864—TFederals heavy loss in their assault tersburg, Va. noted confederate commander, died in Norfolk, Va. up a|Jan. 25, 18265. the St. Lawrence nver at Lachine completed. other well known plays, died in Mid- dleton, N.
