The Washingtonpost (Ind.) says:lf
Col. Bryan bolts the Democratic conven
tion, it is not believed that he will have
many followers. Experience has shown
that the Kansas City platform is not strong
enough to support much of a crowd,
AoS e :
Bananas dried contain their full flavor 1
and nutrition, and weigh but one-ninth
as much as in the bunch. It is proposed
to eyaperate them in the country of ytheir |
origon.on alarge scale. and sc-savetost of
trallsportation,cbid storage,and loss by de-
Writried bananas are valuable as a sub
v e for flour, and unquestionably the
VO'A contains more nutriment than any
fruit.
_ I'ne Norfolk Landmark says: Numbers
appal, but extream griefis like figure 1.
Multiply it by itself any number of times,
and it remains 1. That is one of the mercies
of nature—the limit of capacity for suf
fering. Hundreds of other persons may
suffer in the sam way as one who has been
bereaved, but the suffering of the one is
unaltered by that of the rest.

The Chatanooga Times (Dem.) says:
““Those timid people who regard the atti
tude of Tammany toward Judge Parker is
menacing Democratic saccess in case of
his nomination ought to rememder that
Tammanys chief objection to Parker now
is that ex-Senator Hill is hisardent suc
porter, and that in 1900 Mr. Hill’s chief
yawpers were Tammyanites. Tammeny
thunders horribly in the index.

Referring to the Department of Agri
‘culture’s report on the beet-sugar industry
in 1903 in this country, the San Francisco
“Chronicle observes: ' Itissilent on the one
point in “}fich farmers are most interest
ed—an explanation of the reason why our.
factories, which sell refined granulated
sugar arounl 4 cents per pound, ‘cannot
pay much more than the farmers recieve
in Germany from factories which sell raw
sugar around 2 ¢ents per pound "
The New York World (Dem.) says:
«Mr. Cleveland to prevent interference
with the transportation of the United Sta
-tes mails. There had been no interferen
ce with the United States mails in the
cripple creek district. No applicationihad
been made by the constitutional author
ities of Colorado for federal assistance. In
such tircumstances to send federal «troops
to Tello county would andaatty Jan

- TRUSTS ALL POWFRFUL.
i’l‘hoy Completely Dominate the Re
’ publican Party.
The ‘‘lowa idea’ has been overthrown
in the state of it’s birth, as far ds the Rep.
leaders can do so. At the state convention
to elect delegates to the national conven
tion the platform adopted was the stand
' pat order, thought here were considerable
‘objecting minority. The same tatics wer
employed as in the [Republican state con
vention of Massechusetts, where Senitor
i odge told those delegates who were dem
anding reciprocity with Canada that their
place was in the Democratic party,lf the
proportioh of deligates in either of these
conventions that favored tariff revision
are backed up oy the same per centof
voters, there ismore than enough to turn
those strong Republican states over to
the Democrats if they elect to do so
The trusts arec now competing in many |
foreign markets aganst these foreign pro- |
ducts that the protectionest fear, and are
evidently underselling the forcigners, or
the trusts would not export their products
their. To reduce or abolish the tariff on
these trusts’ products would not therefore |
allow the forcign products to be imported
here, tor the freight anl charges alone
would be a barrier. Of course the trusts
under a 10 per cent tariff would have to
reduce their prices 30 or 40 per cent to
mect these new conditions, and the custo
mer would here gain that much.
There may be some industries here which
would nezd protection for a time and the
tariff on articles of luxury would still be
continued and prehaps increased. For in
stance, the tariff rate on diamonds is now
loper cent, there is no reason why it s‘hould
‘not be 50 per cent. The tariff rate “on re
fiiied stgor is about 50 per cent, there isno
good reason why it should not be reduced
to 1o per ceut, except that the enormous
profits of the sugar trust-would be decreas
ed. Woul:! that ruin the country or reduce
the wages?
~ The platforms of the republican state
conventions adopted this year shows that
‘the trusts and corporations have more
iifluence with the leaders than the voters
of that party have, for in every state ex
cept Idaho the pla forms declare for pro
tection and what has com to be known as
“stand pat,” The Republican national
convention will make a live decleration.
Therefore those Republican voters who
belicve that the tariff shelters trusts will,
for their ownsalvation, aid in the election
of the Democratir ticket.
