If they oppose protection, let them study what the Sec- T i the Treasury says and see if they can answer ey cannot, let them consider the wisdom of admitting it and joining theirs to the strength of the party which upholds the-policy, which the Secretary so plainly states in these words: 5 ¢ most important problems before the American people is that of markets. In this all par- But while the parties agree on the im- portance the ultimate fact, they do not agree upon the methods to be pursued in the accomplish- ment of the desired end. The plan proposed by the * minority party throw our commercial doors wide open for the free importation of products of foreign labor. Members of that party insist that if we do this we will of necessity have unrestricted ac- cess to the markets of other countries. They urge that if we will but allow Europe to clothe us, furnish us our glass, our earthenware, our hardware, our steel rails, our structural iron, and everything else we produce, we will thus secure a most wonderful ties agree of is to export trade “They insist that the way for us to capture the markets of the world is to throw our mar- kets open to the world. The logic of this opinion if we give away what we have we will then have an abundance. England has had free goods for half a century, but she has never had free trade. She has run against the tariff at the entrance of every country she has attempted to invade, and now her colonies, having become vig- orous, are begging to impose duties upon her products, and Mr. Chamberlain resigns his position in the Cabinet, and at the time of life when most men are about to retire to the quiet of their homes goes out to make the fight of his life in behalf of protection. There is a great difference between free goods from forcign countries and free trade in for- eign countries. “Think of it. Our farms produce $4,000,000,000; our shops and factories produce more than all the shops and factories of any other two countries on the map by $3000,000000 per annum. The productive .apacity, without duplications, amounts to $11,000,- 000,000, out of which we export in round numbers $1,500,000,000 and import $1,000,000,000. We there- iore consume practically 05 per cent of all we pro- duce. Suppose we open the doors and allow Europe to clothe us and furnish us our manufactured prod- ucts, who will consume the products of our farms, 2nd what shall we do with the products of our fac- tories? 4 “No, we will take reasonable care of our own, encouraging those who can afford it to buy some of their luxuries abroad, and from the importation of luxuries—laces, jewelry and fancy fabrics—we will collect a good portion of our reveunes and we will sell our surplus in foreign countries.” Observe the distinction, the proper and absolute distinction, made between free imports and free trade. Since the surrender of Peel England has had free imports, but her foreign trade has never been free: therefore it is an eryor to call her system free trade. The two systems of free imports and pro- tected domestic industries have never been as clearly stated as by Secretary Shaw, and he has put the country under renmewed obligations by his forcible * exposition ..Marquette Building cy to tongue-chewing and the | ch defines the protective system and considers | SOME MORE ISSUES. ROM the Democratic and Labor party corners Ful the political triangle come the egophilian feature and issue of the city campaign. Mayor | Schmitz, after self-examination, announced himself as “tried and true,” and began calling his opponents anything but that. Then Mr. Lane raised his voice .| to oratorical pitch and announced his own discovery of his resemblance to the Savior and his desire to make of San Francisco a New Jerusalem. In pic- turesque metaphor he called the city a temple and his opponents “money changers,” to be thonged out into the cold by his avenging political right arm. | These prognathous and bulbous-headed features of | the campaign of course have no right relation to its | true meaning. It may be defined as an effort of the |citizens of San Francisco to secure an upright and | businesslike administration of the city, and such ex- penditure of the money recently voted for improve- {ment as will return to the people for every dollar they pay a hundred cents’ worth of benefit. Mr. Lane's evening organ, once suspected of leas- ing its fugues and doing political oratorio for hire, | discarded things on the labor corner by charging ! city, to which he responded with asperity. ;Ium demerit marks in regard to his reformation of the vintage interest of the State. {not have to pay any attention to this and other un- | pleasant music, for whenever such airs are played on {the organ others, like Mr. Sbarboro and the grape | organ something for giving them the chance. As Mr. Crocker's campaign is addressed to the | business sense and local patriotism of San Fran- co, he does not have to indulge in personalities. {So that sort of campaigning is leit to Lane and | Schmitz, and they make it really interesting. Mr. | Lane, in 2 moment of paternal pride, took the public into his domestic confidence by introducing his | bright and interestiug boy into the fight as a native |son. With a husky “ha! ha!!” Mayor Schmitz coun- |tered on Lane’s single native son with three of his | own This agitated the Democratic corner of the | triangle. It scemed to Lane a blow below the belt, | since it suggested a disadvantage that he cannot re- | pair in the brief period of the campaign. But he re- covered his vecabulary and proceeded to introduce ?xhr Trojan horse into the fight, and that celebrated | charger is now prancing through the field, wooden | i head and tail up, scenting the battle at short range, to the city. Probably it's’bots. The folloyers of Mayor Schmitz resented this horse on their candi- date by burning red pepper in Lane’s next meeting, and his followers and admirers sneezed at his impas- | sioned periods and had to cough up their applause. | It will be seen at a glance that these things indi- | cate the pungency of the anti-Republican campaign. | To step from boasts of paternal qualifications to | p-pper is next thing to a breach of the peace. Let us hope that the rapid progress from the census to | capsicum may not indicate a physical collision be- | tween the two champions of personality. At present | Mr. Lane stands in the attitude of crying from the | housetops, “Schmitz threw red pepper at me, there- |fore I am the only man who should be Mayor.” iAfld from Schmitz’ corner comes the answering slo- i gan, “He called me a wooden horse, therefore I am l‘lhe only tried and true.” These be the diversions of the campaign, but while | Lane oscillates between Homer and the Scriptures, | the siege of Troy and Solomon’s temple, and Schmitz | spits on the keys of his oratorical fiddle and screws |up the strings to make strident answer to the dia- pasons of Lane’s evening organ, and the people are i:mused. the campaign of Mr. Crocker proceeds on | the lines of present reason and future righteousness toward the judgment to come on both of his un. | ruly antagonists. [ — Several more coolies, illegally in this country and | Federal officials who were responsible for the safe- keeping of the Chinese. Recent events indicate that the Chinese Bureau might well keep a watch upon itself or some fine morning it may be marked among the mysterious disappearances with which it has been | so significantly connected of late. Somebody, en- | couraged by success, might steal the bureau. l Roman, with variations. His name is Caruthers. His son carried a gun and had occasion to use it, with results fatal to a fellow citizen. That is not an unusual circumstance in that part of the country. It was perhaps unusual, however, that the junior Caruthers was convicted by a jury for his skill as a marksman and was sentenced to die on the gallows tree. As that sort of exit was distasteful to him, he broke jail, went into hiding and became a fugitive from justice. Then the public authorities proceeded to appraise the value of his victim at $150 by offering that sum to any one who would bring the culprit in to be hanged. To long distance observers it looks hardly worth while to hang any one for whom so small a reward is offered. If the man who was shot was worth so little, why add it to the cost of hanging the shooter? But small as the amount was it brought the fugitive back to jail. It may not be considered remarkable that some one was found willing to turn an honest penny by giving the hangman a job. But it is re- markable that the fugitive was given up by his own father. If the affair stopped there the world might turn it into an heroic incident, and the father would figure as putting the laws of his country above his natural affection for his son, and higher even to the family aversion for having one of its members hanged. But old Mr. Caruthers does not leave room for such heroic ascription. He delivered his som to | the hangman, claimed the reward of $150 and hastened | to explain that the boy was a fugitive and likely to starve to death, and that it was better to be hanged with a full belly and let the family make a little something. To ¢arry out this remarkable thrift the public | authorities ought to raise the amount of the award by charging gate money to see the boy hanged, and making the father gatekeeper to collect the receipts. This would save the taxpayers and would make the young man do something for the family in his last moments. It is said that Governor Terrill is bothered about i the matter. One thing is sure, however—the reward { should be paid to the father. When it was offered a contract was entered into by the State, and the old man was not excluded from its benefits. If he think the best use for his boy is to hang him and thereby make him contribute to the family fortunes, the State A THRIF1Y ROMAN.

It must be noticed that even if Governor Ter- rili pardon the boy, or commute his sentence to im- prisonment, still the great State of Georgia must keep faith with old Mr. Caruthers and pay him the $150 due for bringing the lad in. No report of the boy's opinion of the affair comes to hand. Judging the family by the old man, it ig probable that he too much enjoys the process .of being fed and fattened for the hangman to have any opinion beyond his victuals. The neighbors are silent, too. None of them rushes into print to tell how much they enjoy the society of the elder Caruthers. He may be an object of envy as he comes in triumph jingling in his pocket the price of his son’s life. Prophets foretold that this century would be remarkable. They are right. and so far its most remarkable product is the Caruthers family of Wilcox County, Georgia. e e e . There is a similarity and a difference between the efforts of our Board of Health to cleanse Chinatown and one of the labors of Hercules. In his little affair in the stables Hercules finished the job and it didn't cost a cent. In Chinatown the work of the Board of Health is coarse and interminable and is a con- {stant dram on the ever-opening doors of the muni- GOOD CiTIZENSEHIP. | cipal treasury. OME years ago there was quite a lively discus- S sion going on all over the country as to what we should do with our ex-Presidents. It was | one of the topics of the period of the year known as | the “silly season” and speedily ran its course, being forgotten as soon as a subject of genuine interest | arose to engage public attention. We refer to it now {only to point out how well the only ex-President liv- ing has solved the question for us. Mr. Cleveland out of office has been devoting his time to fishing and to political philosophy, and in each line of endea- vor has attained an eminence which all of his coun- trymen recognize and respect. In the field of political philosophy the chief theme | of the retired Democratic sage is that of the duty of the American citizen to take part in public affairs and to actively engage in politics. Whatever be the occasion upon which he is called upon to address any considerable audience he sooner or later directs | his argument and his appeal to that end. Thus, for | example, in a recent address on the subject of “Uni- | versity Education” he said: “I cannot rid myself at this moment of the thought that education is a self- | ish, useless thing if it is to be hid in a napkin, or if it is to be hugged to the breast by its possessor as a mere individual prize, and it seems to me that the existence of schools and colleges in this land of ours can scarcely be deemed important except as they are the sources from which education may be dis- tributed through many channels for the enrichment of the body politic and the stimulation of patriotic thoughtfulness among our people.” His most notable utterance on this subject, how- | ever, is his latest, that delivered before the Commer- cial Club of Chicago on Wednesday evening. This address is one which Cleveland must have carefully studied, for he cannot have been unaware of the fact that as soon as it was known he had accepted an in- vitation to the banquet of the club the rumor ran round the country that the occasion would be used as an opportunity to launch a boom for him as a can- didate for the Presidency. " It was even asserted that his words would reveal a willingness to accept the leadership of his party. Under such «circumstances the speech was awaited with eagerness, and we may be sure it was prepared with a full understanding of the care with which it would be scrutinized by poli- ticians of all sorts. There is nothing in the speech to help the Cleve- land boom. His speech to his fellow fishermen of Buzzards Bay on the occasion of the recent clam- bake had more of party politics than this thought- | ful address on “American Good Citizenship.” From first to last it was a plea for the faithful performance { of political duty.” After pointing out that some per- | | sons neglect public duties because of indifference, others because of an unreasoning optimism that | everything will turn out all right anyhow, and still others because of their complete absorption in pur- suit of private gain or private pleasure, Mr. Cleve- land said: “The withdrawal of wholesome sentiment and patriotic activity from political action on the part of those who are indifferent to their duty, or foolhardy in their optimism, opens the way for a ruthless and unrelenting enemy of our free institutions, The abandonment of our country’s watch towers by those who should be on guard and the slumber of the sentinels who should never sleep directly invite the stealthy approach and the pillage and loot of the forces of selfishness and greed. These baleful ene- mies of patriotic effort will lurk everywhere as long as human nature remains unregenerate, but nowhere in the world can they create such desolations as in free America, and nowhere can they so cruelly de- stroy man's highest and best aspirations for self- government. It is useless for us to blink the fact that our scheme of government is based upon a close interdependence of interest and purpose among those who make up the body cf our people. Let us be honest with ourselves.” The address, which was published in full in The Call of yesterday, comes pertinent and pat to the people of San Francisco at this time. There is now an urgent need for good citizens to take part in the campaign and save the city from the menace of class divisions and factional city government. In this emergency it is the duty of every American to vote, and to vote right. EP—— At a recent address delivered to the students of the Chico High Schocl Governor Pardee urged his youthful hearers never to burn the midnight oil at the expense of health. Is this an assault upon Cupid or Minerva, or has our estimable chief executive in mind the fact that the sturdy students of Chico will soon be voters and will remember him who tried to make easy their days of studentship? The unknown demons that are using dynamite with which to wreck railroad trains in the Middle West belong to that dread pest which has grown out of twentieth century deviltry in absolutely motiveless malignity. For such fiends American legislators have not yet invented a punishment severe enough, for death is mercy to those that conspire without motive or sense of injury against mankind. A Western boy bandit is no longer the dream of the wild-eyed youngsters of the kindergarten, but a very.dinggreuble reality recently captured in Ore- gon.

PRESIDENT REMOVES UNITED STATES MARSHAL WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.—The Pre: upon the recommendation of the Att ney General, has removed United Sta Marshal Alfred A. Fleld of the Distri of Vermont for dereliction of duty in per- mitting the escape at Providence, R. I, of three Chinese entrusted to him for de- portation. The prisoners who escaped, with eleven others, were under sentence of deporta- tion and were conducted to Providence. R. L. on the evening of June 20 and placed on board a steamer at that point some time prior to 5 o'cl At5:30 ¢ k the Marshal left the boat and returned to Boston, leaving the prisoners in charge of his son, who was acting as his deputy to accompany the prisoners to San Fran- cisco. Before leaving them the Marshai in- formed his son that two men on the boa who, he claims, had been pointed out to him as proper persons but whom he had never seen before, might assist him if necessary and that he might leave the prisoners in their charge while he went to supper. The deputy did so and upon his return from supper found that the two men and the three prisoners had es- caped. The Marshal claimed that these two men had been pointed out by the agent of the railroad company with whom the Government had arranged for their trip across the continent. The agent pos- itively denied this statement and, with- out passing on the question of veracity raised by this denial, the Attorney Gen- eral was of the opinion that upon the Marshal's own story he was gullty of such culpable negligence as to call for his immediate removal in the interest of the service. RUTLAND, Vt., Oct. 15.—News of the re- moval from office of United States Mar- shal Alfred A. Field by President Roose- velt to-day surprised the residents of this city, where Field is ranked as a leading and highly respected citizen. He was ap- pointed Marshal by Prestdent McKinley and reappointed a year ago by President Roosevelt. SRR P IS aLIRO YOSEMITE COMMISSIONERS HOLD REGULAR MEETING Telephone System to Connect Various Camps and Hotels in Valley Is Suggested. The Board of Yosemite Commissioners, presided over by William G. Henshaw, met yesterday afternoon in the offices of John J. Lerman in the Call building for the purpose of deciding several questions which were carried over from the last | meeting. A lease of *he Sentinel Hotel was grant- ed to J. B. Cook for four years, to com- mence November 1, 1903. At the last meeting of the Commission- ers David A. Curry, proprietor of mp Curry, made application for the privilege of selling lemonade, cigars and candy in the camp, but Nelson Salter, who runs a large store in the valley, objected, say- ing the new stand would injure his busi- ness., The matter was taken up yester- day and the license will be granted Curry a mile from Salter’s store. The grading of the roads was the next matter taken up and it was moved and seconded that a road grading machine he bought immediately and started working. Reports on the condition of the water and pipe system were read by the secre- tary and found to be satisfactory.
