Jim Watson has announced that he will speak in Indiana twice a day for a month during the campaign and in every speech he will extoll the PayneAldrich tariff law. All of this he will do without the consent and jover the protest of Mr. Beveridge’s state committee.

One reason given for Mr. Taft’s spending so much public money traveling about is, that he wants to get away from the fights that, the regulars and insurgents are constantly indulging in on his .doorsteps. He may find it necessary, however, to kick the insurgents for whom he has no use, anyway—into * the Potomac river.

It is charged that Senator Beveridge on the day of the Republican state convention, sent a telegram to a friend in Washington saying that he had ‘‘kicked the stomach off of the PayneAldrich tariff bill.” And now the Hon. Jim Watson, backed up by the Taft administration, is .going to try to kick it back on again by making two speeches a day fpr a whole month in the Indiana campaign. With Beveridge kicking it off and Watspn kicking it on that stomach is bound to suffer some damage—to say nothing about what the Democrats will do to it. i

The Republican managers, it is said, are “fairly gritting their teeth” over the popularity of Governor Marshall’s- administration of state affairs. It is said further that they are using a micropscope in trying to find something, in his administration to criticize or attack. But they might as well stop the wear and tear on their Teeth and put the microscope on the shelf. The governor told the people that his sole ambition was to be an oldfashioned coastitutional executive and they know' that he has made good/ ‘ Senator Aldrich, the real leader of the Republican party, says that the. $250,000 appropriated by the combined vote of the standpatters and insurgents for the support of Mr. Taft’s tariff board will be used to “justify” the Payne-Aldrich tariff law'. In other words, the people’s money will he taken and used not in behalf of the people but to bolster up a law made especially for the favored interests. And this is done, too, in the face of the fact that* tire Payne-Aldrich law is so drawn that for every dollar of public revenue produced by it five dollars of private graft are levied upon the people undei its protection by the trusts and monopolies that procured its passage. It is to be the lasting credit of the Democrats in congress that they voted against appropriating that $250,000.

What James E. Watson says is not always important. On the contrary much that he says is very unimportant. But as he was for many years a member of congress and two years ago was the Republican nominee for governor and is now the recognized head of the “regular” or standpat Republicans in the state, some of his utterances may be regarded as significant. It is well known that Mr. Watsipn doesn’t like the Democratic party—and the Democratic party doesn’t care —hut he likes a certain element in his own party still le.s%. That element is now in control of the state organization and it claims to stand for “insurgency.” In a speech to the Wisconsin Republicans Mr. Watson said that “insurgency” was worse than the Democratic party, and he also remarked that “the Democratic mule of insurgency should not be grafted onto the Republican elephant.” These things are mentioned merely to show how formidable the split in the Republican party is and how bitter the fight between the factions is going" to be.

BLAME PAPER TRUST.

Consolidation of Business Has Produced Three Paper Panics In Three Years —Only an Open Market Will Save the Situation. Woe to the industry that becomes doifiinated by a trust! The newspapers of the country are just now piteously deploring the hard fate that has made then) dependent upon oue woueern -the International Paper company for their supply of print paper. A strike has occurred in the mills <>f the company, and of course the Output has been reduced, with the result that the publishers are paying higher prices and are not sure of their future supply even at that. Curiously enough, this is one of the very calamities that The trust was formed to prevent, according to the professions of- its promoters' at the time. “The International Paper company." says the committee on paper of tlie American Publishers' association. "started out with the assurance that by consolidating thirty mills un der one management it would .give the publishers a continuous and permanent supply which no oue mill could furnish. We have had three paper panics within three years, two of which have been due directly to the failure of t lie company to continually supply all of its customers.” _ « The paper trust has been unfortunate in its relations with its employee-; . The strike this year is an example of that We are told that the trust is struggling ’to train unskilled Jjiber for the places of the men who have' left its service to find employment in other mills. Speaking generally. it may be said that the labor em ployed by the mills controlled by the trust ,1s low priced and the vrork turned out is inefficient. The official chemist of the Association of Paper Manufacturers is quoted as saying that “a veiy large proportion of our paper manufacturers, most superintendents and nearly all Workers in the mill are making paper today with an almost mediaeval ignorance and disregard of the fundamental properties and relationship of the materials in which they work.” p Such is the result of “trustifying” the paper industry. No wonder the newspaper publishers are In rebellion against the trust and are asking to have Canadian paper admitted free of duty. . Millet and Hungarian seed at Eger Bros.

TRADE A PEACEMAKER.

When Nations Lear o to Become Each Other’s Customers They Will Coaae to Be Enemies. We have recently had the annual flood of inconsequential talk about International peace Roosevelt at Christiania pleaded for some check, on the growth of armaments by means of a’ league of nations which would act aa the world's police. ' His speech, however, like that of most orations made at peace gatherings, dwelt rather upon methods of checking wars than of promoting the growth of peace. It is too often overlooked that there is one great natural force always making for the world’s peace if we will only Jet. it grow. That force is international commerce. It is a force powerful enough to knit the world together at no very distant date if left unchecked. According to a recent letter of Andrew Carnegie, the leading nations of the world now exchange goods to the extent of $28,000,000,000 a year. To that extent they are interdependent To that extent they recognize that their interests are not at variance. If the high tariffs were taken down and the trade held hack by them permitted to flow in unrestricted channels this process of interdependence and world knitting would be intensified. The resulting consciousness of identity of interest would cut the ground from under the war spirit and cause it to fade into oblivion. Wars will cease when the peoples of the earth have become intelligent enough to know that the worst use they can make of foreigners is to conquer them or try to injure them. A far mor-e sensible use is to make customers out of them. It is better to be surrounded with nations able and willing to trade with you than with miserable hordes of backward savages too impoverished tg aspire Jo any foreign trade whatever. The foreigner who makes an honest exchange with ns is not our enemy. Our true enemy ig often our own countryman who fears that the Competition of the foreigner would hurt his monopoly and incites us to rise against the foreigner*in order to preserve it. International wars have no justification. Class wars may have.—Thomas Scanlon.

FOOD FROM ABROAD.

Would the Consumer Be Benefited if Foodstuffs Were Admitted Free? The New York Sun- of May 14 ridicules the notion that any relief for the present high prices of provisions is possible by putting food products on the free list. It asks: “Where can we buy wheat, corn, oats, barley, beef, mutton, cattle, sheep, lard, bacon, butter, eggs, poultry, flour, fresh vegetables, fruits, berries and other commodities of general and daily household consumption? What country or what group of countries has these commodities to sell in millions of pounds or bushels?” •It may be that the relief would be slow in coming in some cases, but it would come. All the above commodities are grown in proportion to the anticipated demand for them. Canada, Russia and Argentina are the chief countries besides America which export agricultural products.. • They grow no more than they think they can sell to advantage. They naturally take tariffs into account before deciding how much they can grow for export. When England had a duty on wheat there was little wheat grown in Russia for export. But the taking off of that duty had the effect of stimulating the growth of wheat in all countries that were fit for it, and England continues to feed her teeming population on foreign grown wheat. Similarly the opening of our ports to foreign agricultural produce would encourage production in all countries that are tit to supply us. It is nothing but sophistry to reason that because there is no available foreign food supply when we shut our door against it there will be none when we alter our tactics and invite It. Besides, if our duties on agricultural products do not keep out food what on earth are they for? Are they to fool the farmers? •

The Laws Defied.

We import our operatic singers from Italy and our policemen from Ireland. This is. in utter-defiance of our protectionist laws. Why don’t we levy a tariff' upon men like Caruso, for example. that will equal the difference between the cost of producing high class tenors here and in Italy? The people of this country know nothing about the economies iu diet which are practiced by European people.—New York Tribune.

GLAD HAND FOR CANADA.

Eminent Commercial Authority Pleads For Breaking Down Trade Berrien. : Henry M. Whitney, ex-president of the Boston chamber of commerce, struck the right keynote at the Economic club dinner in New York on May IS m regar.l io the tariff dispute with Canada! He did not plead for timid, half hearted measures, but insisted that rhe sweeping away of all tariff restrictions between the two countries was the goal that should be aimed at and courageously fought for. He said: . , "if the tariff barriers between the two countries were absolutely removed manufacturing interests would gradually find their way to the western sections of Canada, and this development would be more rapid if the capital, the energy and the enterprise of the American people were joined with the sober industrial qualities of the Canadians in bringing it about.” What can be more stupid than the attitude of the protection Ist parties in both countries that stand between both parties and the realization of this great scheme of common benefit? Even our manufacturers, for whose benefit we shut out Canadian products. would gain far more in the end than they would lose temporarily by the- destruction of their monopoly. Fresh avenues for them would bo opened tip by the new opportunities which unrestricted trade would bring about. Mr. Whitney said .that the first step toward satisfactory trade relations with Canada should come from this country. This also is sound advice. We have shut Canada <>ut of our markets for years and have compel led her to seek markets elsewhere. We should open our door and invite her to treat with us. Let us not lie content with cheeseparing reductions, but k<nq> before us the grand fact that Canada and the United States arc* one country naturally, divided only by an imaginary line, and that the commercial advantages to be reaped by blotting out that line are as great as those which have accrued to us from the adoption of free trade between the various states.

Rheumatism I have found a tried and tested cure for Rheatnatism! Not a remedy that will straighten the distorted limbs of chronic cripples, nor turn bony growths back to flesh again. That is impossible. But I can now surelf kill the pains and pangs of this deplorable disease. In Germany—with a Chemist in the City of Darmstadt—l found the last ingredient with Which Dr. Shoop’s Rheumatic Remedy was made a perfected, dependable prescription. Without that last ingredient, I successfully treated many, many cases of Rheumatism; but now, at last. It uniformly ernes all curable cases of this heretofore much dreaded disease. Those sand-like granular wastes, found in Rheumatic seem to dissolve and pass away under the action of this remedy as freely as does sugar when added to pure water. And then, when dissolved, these poisonous wastes freely p*ss from the system, and the cause of Rheumatism is gone forever. There is now no real need—no actual excuse to suffer longer without help.
