Reference is made to tariff revision. As we get further away from the war and Europe resumes manufacturing opera tions the artificial protection js disap- pearing. The wondition of the wool market and tie woolen industry is just one instance. On this general question Fibre and Fabric says: “The necessity for an upward revis- jon of the tariff is now coming ‘right jhome to 100,000 workers in New Eng- land woolen mills.

The gratitude of the people of Cuba to Theedore Roosevelt has taken the form of a draft for a hun@red thou- @ollars toward the memorial ito late distinguished American to be his beloved Oyster Bay. Nothing could have been more appro- priete than this gift. The people of Cuba owe a debt to Col. Roosevelt which cannot be Haui- dated money and things of yalue. What he did for these people. as sol-| dier and president of ithe United States} —to relieve them from the yoke of op- Tpression has a value not reckoned in | sand the erected near in money. Their eppreciation is not only shown “in this substantial offering for a highly worthy but in their devotion! “to his memory in the form of monu ménts and paintings in public places and in the laws of the republic. In =the schools of the island this picture hak an honcred place snd the children are taught to cherish his memory. ANSE SS Ai bee MISUSE OF POWER. Uproar by subsidized boosters of ene candidate or another is not so scandal- ous as are silence and the secret prem- ises or threats of public officials, says the Chicago News. “Noisy money ordinarily is not more dangerous than i appears, but using “the power of office for private ends is ~ a curse and the direet cause of politi- cal degeneracy. Where official position has been used illegitimately public pun- ishment should be swift and severe. “Publicity such as the senate com- mittee’s inquiry -is giving affords a« = yalid form of protection against money the misuse of official purpose, is rrepnent subsidies or every week delays orders for our own milis and the help can take forced va- cations ‘because we have ® government that is not looking to the best inte: ests of the American’ people. “There are mijlions of yards English woolens still on order American ‘firms, and since the slump, orders ‘have far distanced cancellation. and for months to come we arb going to receive large shipments that eom- pete seriously avith our home products, and help pot a little to continue cur- tailment in American tills. “@ur bright ‘hope is in the return of the party of protection next November, but in the meantime great damage will be done and a half million people will feel ithe é@ffects right there in New England. “It seems rather surprising with so of. for, *|much shouting for America and Ameri- canism, that this great and dangerous! tariff matter is so long delayed. Of jeourse, we cannot hope for aid fram the present administration, as jit to be more interested in the welfare of the people across the water then in our own people. But the day of ‘reckon- ing is not far off and mill workers will have losses in ‘wages totating over $2,- 000,000 weekly to charge up to the present government.” SS ERE PERS GRE Pr AEE AMERICA’S GREATNESS. Addressing a delegation from Mans- field from the front porch of his home Senator Harding told these Ohio neigh that: “It is geod that our producing inter- ests arc diversified.

There is a disposition of some to inveigh against one section ‘or another, as self- ‘ish interest may suggest, but the broad national welfare contemplates no Hast and no West, no North and ‘no South, Pride of locality is most commendable, but patriotism is not sectional.

Tt is this larger lesson which the thoughful voter will seck to learn. The extent to wnicn personality. bas displaced principles and bitten into the entire mentality of the present-day pro- \azgonists of Democracy is well illus- trated in the preposterous assumption which characterizes the keynote speech ef Chairman Cummins in opening the convention at San Francisco, In that long and rapturously applauded dis- course there is no mention of any fun- damental principle of geverament and no reference to any feature of Ameri- ean institutional life. So far as ‘this republic is concerned, it might as well have been without a history and without any basic institu- tions or essential character. A fulsome’ eulogy of the president; a rhapsodical panegyric of the Democratic party; a recjtal of the results of “the great pro- avreasive Program outlined in our plat form of 1912," to which the president denies the qualities of a program, alto- ether; a boast of the achievments of the war, into which the party was foreed without the slightest prepara- tion, notwithstanding three years of warning, as the triumph of the Demo- cratic party alone; utter ingratitude for the service af Republicans, who, ac- eording to the election returns of 1918, constitute a considerable majority of the nation; a rebuke of all criticism as originating in malice toward the presi- dent and jealousy of his success as a peace-maker—this is the substance of what the chairman has té say of the nation’s political problems and the peo- ple’s needs. . The only positive proposal of this koymote manifesto, which was dictated and approved at Washington, is the merging of the United States in an, im- perial syndicate of irresponsible great powers, fuled by a super-government! in which ‘the beneficiaries of the sys- pecting to profit by the centralization of the powers of government in the hands of the exeentive, oppose a return to the restrictions of .a constitutionat regime, and are, deteimined that. this dynasty of unregulated power shall not aie. be | So tar\as the world’s peace is con: cerned; ultimately, when the American people are fully enlightened on the sub- Ject of Internationa! affairs, this nation will take its xightful and honorable piace in the counsels and responsibili- tes of the free nations of the world. The question now is whether or not this natian is to remain free. If it is to be so, this supremacy of personal power must be ended, BEGGARS AND PANHANDLERS SWARM HERE NOTABLES SAIL, That Casper is beset hwith panhand- jers and beggars was the complain made by several merchants to the Chamber of Commerce this inorning.

Because the major- ity of the senators of the United States, have refused to give their advice and consent to this unauthorized engage- ment by the president, made in opposi- tion to the previously known adyice of @ number of senators sufficient to de- feat it, they are now accused of ‘‘sell- ing the honor of America.’ No blacker crime against civilization,” runs this bitter indictment of a co-ordinate! branch of the treatyumaking power, “has ever soiled ‘the pages of vur his-| tory.” | ‘This virulent attack upon the very stricture of our government, in whit one of its most Vital safeguards is as- saulated, is without precedent in Amer- jean politics. When we calmly inquire what has induced this hysterical de- nunciation of a majority of the senate of the United States, induding twenty-! three Democratic senators, we find that’ it was, imperatively decreed at Wash- ington, and that members ef the ad-\ ministration wholly subjeet to the will of the president were charged to see! that this keynote was clearly sounded,| while ‘these who were known to be op- poged were excluded from the conven- tion and deprived of an-opportunity tol express their dissent defend their participation in this alleged blackest ,of all crime: Let no one be deceived regarding this | | or appardnt Demoeratic passion for the jleague of nations, the provisions of ,; Which no Democrat before the Wil- {sonian control of the party would ever |for a moment have ucvepted.: It is Wil son, not the rejection of the league, that has caused this outburst of denun- }clation against the action of the senate: j1t is a desperate attempt to sustain purely personal us against strictly con- titutional government.
