A Protectionist But Reformer. In a spirited defense of Colonel Roosevelt from the insinuation that he is straddling the tariff, and assuming one position in the insurgent west and another in the east. The Philadelphia North American insists that Colonel Roosevelt is a protec tionist, but sees the “real peril of the protective system lies in the perversion of the tariff into privileged plunder.” That is aposition that is entire ly consistent. It is the position of most, if not all, of the leading republican insurgents. Holding to the position that a protective tariff is necessary to promote the welfare and pros perity of American industries and American workmen, they yet agree that the tariff most recent ly framed is an outrageous per version of that basic principle of tariff making. It accomplishes not protec tion, but plunder. In a statement written before President Taft’s letter on the tariff to Chairman McKinley, of the republican congressional cam paign committee, Colonel Roose velt said the tariff must be such as “to substantially equalize the cost of production here and a broad.” To that end he made the following suggestion. Therefore, we feel that there should be a tariff commission, composed of impartial experts amply equipped for obtaining not merely from the statements of interested parties, but by inves tigation as will satisfy them that the facts are accuate, informa tion that will enable congress in each given case to establish the measure of protection necessary to carry out the principle above set forth. In this position he is most ac tively supported by Senator Bev eridge, who is a protectionist, but bitterly opposed the Payne-Al drich tariff bill. The so-called commission pro vided for at the last session of congress and awarded $250,000 with which to gather tariff facts, may indicate the road to an ef fective and scientific method of j dealing with the tariff honestly. ; In itself, it can accomplish little. In defending Colonel Roosevelt from the charge of double-deal ing and shifting of ground, The ' North American a zealous, pro gressive journal published in a hopelessly reactionary state says the Colonel stood at Sarato ga exactly where he stood at Osa watomia and at St. Louis. But The North American insistin that any action by the! New York convention on the tar-' iff was of no immediate conse quence, is embarrassed by the fact that action was taken in. de fense of the Patme-Aldrich bill and of President Taft’s adminis tration. And to redeem the Colonel from the charge of double-deal ing is to plunge headlong into the awkward defense that he yielded to expediency. This is what his defender does in saying that one with less political astuteness, such as La Toilette or Hughes, might have insisted on everything, or nothing. In other words, if they could not have dictated the whole platform, they would have had nothing at all to do with it. But the (Colonel made a fight to defeat the old lxjsses, to pledge the praty to a direct nominations law, and to nominate for gover nor a man heartily in sympathy with the reform program of Gov ernor Hughes. To do this he had to yield some thing to his supporters who were defenders of the tariff and of the Taft administration. But this is the same defense put up by Senator Aldrich, Mr. Payne and every supporter of the present tariff law. It was sat- ■ isfaetory to none of them in its entirely, according to their vehe ment statements, but a number of high schedules they disappoved were incorporated to secure the votes necessary to pass the bill. The whole thing comes down to a question of the individual. And the country trusts Colonel Roosevelt and believes that his sympathies and his policies are for the people, and that those of Aldrich and Cannon are against tKe public good!

OYNAMITE STORED IN SAN FRANCISCO HOUSE. San Francisco, Oct.. 16—The discovery to-night of 500 pounds of dynamite hidden in an unten anted house near the bay in South San Francisco, threw the detec tives working on the Los Angeles Times Explosion case into new spasms of activity, and cast dark ; ness over clews hitherto consider ed brilliant of promise. The dynamite was contained in ten boxes of fifty pounds each ad dressed to J. B. Bryson, and is supposed to he the same lot as as that purchased by’ three men from the Giant Powder Works Sept. 20. The theory that the much hunted “Bryce and Perry,” the “squint-eyed man,” who pur chased the giant powder and took it away m the launch Pastime, are the men responsible for the Times horror, apparently is rid dled. James C. O’Brien, owner of the house at No. 1(522 Nineteenth avenue, Smith Sun Francisco, where the dynamite was found, was responsible for the discovery. On Sept. 24 a man giving the name of William Gutt, who an swers the description of the third man vvlm accompanied “Bryce” and “Perry” to the Giant Powder Works, rented the house of a real estate firm. That night Mrs. John Fox, a |° . ’ neighbor, saw two men drive up to the house in a delivery wagon The wagon contained a load cover ed by two large pieces of canvas. The wagon was unloaded, the men drove off and no one has been seen around the house since that time. O’Brien to-day decided to go I out to the house and see who the new tenants were. He found it empty, and in the parlor the boxes of dynamite. One box was opened and as sooi/as Mr. O’Brien saw that it. contained dynamite he notified the police. Card of Thanks I desire through the Monitor to extend mv heartfelt aupreciation to those good people, citizens of the River Bend section, who gave assistance during the illness and subsequent death of my beloved wife. Assuring each and every one that their acts of kindness will he always remembered, I am Very gratefully, D. C. Martian, Soperton. ROOSEVELT ARRAIGNS NEW YORK DEMOCRATS. Dunkirk, N, Y. —Theodore Roosevelt fired the opening gun i here today in his campaign for Henry L. Stimson for governor of New York and it was a terrific broadside against Tammany Hall and the Wall Street interests. The ex-president openly charg ed that there is a coalition be tween Tammany and “the inter ests,” the purpose of which is to control the entire state. The Tammany alliance with Wall Street, he asserted, is the most “shameful combination” of crooked politics and crooked fi nance that the state has seen since the days of Tweed. He inveighed against some of the New York newspapers, saying they were in the Tammany-Wall Street alliance. Mr. Roosevelt did not avert to the “old guard” of the Republican party or his vic tory over them in the Saratoga convention. The ex-president drew the is sue clearly and firmly as between the Republcan party fighting for decency on one side and Tam many witn the Wall Street inter ests on the other. The ex-president made his siz zling speech at Washington park, where 10,000 persons had congre gated to hear him open the cam paign. He said that no honest . man could afford to vote for the I Democratic ticket in New York., Fall Seed Oats. 1 have for rale the Famous Ap pier and BanerotT Seed Oats. See me at once for seed. 1). S.
