TARIFF MUST NOT BE TOUCHED Pattison's Election Would Mean a Lack of Confidence In President Roosevelt and His Policy—Prosper ity and Republican Rule. (From a Special Correspondent.) Washington. D. C., Aug. 26. —"You can say to the people of Pennsylva nia that If our present prosperity Is to continue, then tariff protection as exemplified In the Dingley act must continue." These significant and impressive words were uttered by the chairman of the house committee on appropri ations, Hon. Joseph Cannon, of Il linois. He has been in the city for several days, returning from the na val maneuvers and Is on his way home to take part in the Republican campaign in his state. "In your campaign speeches are you going to promise the people that there will be a revision of the tariff at the next session?" he was asked. NO TARIFF TINKERING. "No sir. Why should I make such a promise? The people of this country do not want the marvellous prosperity we are enjoying checked, and that is what would happen If any revision of the tariff should be agitated. There la always a year of uncertainty connected with tariff revision. Business becomes demoralized and industries shut down. Manufacturers do not care to make con tracts for the future, because they do not know what the tariff rate will be. "No sir. The tariff will not be re vised at the next session of congress or by the succeeding congress, unless there is an unfor;.een check to our present prosperity. There Is nothing sacred about the present tariff sched ule, but any tinkering with it at the present time would be demoralizing." The above is a significant utterance. It comes from one of the best posted and one of the most conservative men in congress. It is a statement particu larly Interesting to Pennsylvania, which above all states of the union with its great Iron and steel Industries would be affected by tariff agitation. There are four great manufacturing states In the union and Pennsylvania is second. They are New York with $2,175,000,000 of manufactured prod ucts; Pennsylvania with $1,835,000,000; Illinois, $1,266,000,000, and Massachu setts $1,035,000,000. The Instant the tariff Is tourhed or revision Is agitated by Its enemies, the Democrats, Just that instant do we have an era of Democrat ic hard times. Here is an Interesting statement of facts as showing the difference between conditions in 1896 when Cleveland left the White House and last year after five years of undisturbed Republican rule. The deposits In the savings banks of the country, those depositories of the surplus funds of the working man, were $690,000,000 greater in the Blngle year 1901 than they were in 1896. The Individual deposits in the National banks of the country were $1,298,064,- 000 greater in 1901 than In 1896. Thus the deposits In the Savings and Na tional banks In tha country In Re publican good times exceed those of 1896 at the close of four years of Democratic uncertainty by the enor mous sum of $1,988,000,000. FARMERS GETTING RICH. Now what has this meant to the far mer? The live-stock on the farms of the country which was reported by the ag ricultural department In 1896, at sl,- 727.926,084, is reported at $1,981,0*1,- 116 by the census of 1900, an Inn-ease of $253,128,031. With the Increased activity. Increased earnings, and In creased consumption by a prosperous people the farmer has received greatly Increaaed prices for his production. The farmer is becoming an exporter. The exportation of agricultural pro ducts Increased from $570,000,000 In 1896 to $944,000,000 In 1901, an increase of $374,000,000, In the mere surplus re maining after supplying our great and rapidly increasing home market. The farmers of the country received $350,- 000.000 more for their cereals alone in 1900 than they did In 1896. A statistician In one of the depart ments here In Washington, said to me the other day: "The Democratic stump speakers sneeringly claim that the Republicans claim every big crop as a result of pro tection or Republican legislation, there by robbing Divine Providence and Heaven of Its Just dues," but the fig ures show that It Is a fact that during Republican admlni tiations then- ..re larger i rops and vMei prl. c.s than there are in Deinoc. atic teresting isn't it? But this is easily explained. The In telligent farmer, in connection with the rest of the country, has no faith in Democratic administration or promises, consequently during Democratic ad ministiations less wheat, corn, oats and other crops are planted. This is proven by official figures. The farm value of the corn crops for the four years of Cleveland's tirst administra tion, from 18Kf> to IStf'i. aggregated $2.- 5t)9,C53,980. In the four years of Harri son's administration which followed, the farm value of the corn crop aggre gated $2,830,938,138, an increase of more than $250,000,000 during the Cleveland administration. The same condition was repeated in the second Cleveland ad ministration and the following Mc- Klnley administration. In the Mr- Klnloy administration years the farm value of corn increased $250,000,000 over that of the preceding Democratic administration. WHAT THE ELECTION OF PAT TISON MEANS. The farmers of Pennsylvania shared In this prosperity. Do they proposo to help elect a Democratic governor this year, and by that action indicate that they tfnve a weakening faith in President Roosevelt and Republican principles? For that is what the elec tion of Pattison would mean! That is the question that heads of departments and the strangers that visit Washing ton are asking. Almost every day I am ayked the question, "What is Penn sylvania going to do?" The Democrats from Pennsylvania who come down to Washington on busi ness boast that they are going to make their light on state issues. When they are asked why they do not discuss na tional issues, those who are honest re ply that it Isn't the year for a discus sion of national issues, seeing that their party has not recovered from Bryanism and free silver, and so there is nothing left to do but take up state issues. As a result when I am asked what Penn sylvania is going to do I invariably re ply: "Why elect Pennypacker of course."

One of the arguments upon which Democratic stump speakers this fall will largely depend to capture un thinking voters has been disclosed through some boasting remarks of Democratic State Chairman Creasy, its first outcropping was at the meet ing of the McKean county Demo crats. At that meeting the resolutions adopted made the following declara tion : "The auditor general's report of the state of Pennsylvania shows that the farmers and home owners pay $16.50 in taxes for each SI,OOO In value, while the steam railroads pay but $2.75, the street railroads but $4.75, and telegraph and telephone com panies but $3.20." The statement is absolutely false in every particular. It is an attempt of the Democrats to excuse their own wretched short comings on the mat ter of taxation when they were in power. Republicans will not be de ceived by this trick and subterfuge when they consider the deception, as exposed by the Philadelphia Press, which says: "There is no stato tax on real es tate, as everybody should know by this time, since it was wiped out al most 40 years ago. There is no state tax on trades and occupations, or on horses and cattle or on household fur niture, all such taxes having been repealed years ago so far as the state is concerned. Wherever taxes of this kind are imposed it is a local matter. The tax on real estate paid by the farmers and home owners is fixed by the local authorities and raised only for local purposes. If it is burden some It is the fault of the county, borough or city authorities, for tho state has absolutely nothing to do with it. It is not a subject for legis lation at Harrisburg, as the McKean Democrats want to pretend. "The state gets tho bulk of its revenues from tax on corporations In various forms, and though it is com plained that the corporations are not taxed enough the state revenues have been so large for many yearns as to support the policy, long since adopted, of returning large amounts to ttie counties as a means of relieving the local burdens of taxation. This policy has been greatly enlarged in the past dozen years, and with the present overflowing state treasury there la very certain to be a clamor before the next legislature for still more lib erality in tlifit direction. Without counting what the state has surren dered by the remission of taxes on real estate It is paying to the coun ties from $10,000,000 to $12,000,000 annually. This is in the form of re turns of three-fourths of the personal property tax, school appropriations, the payment of Judges' salaries and charities, together with some lesser items. "Now let us see what kind of a grievance McKean county has against the state. The auditor general went to the trouble in 1897 to prepare some tables showing the amount paid the state by each county and that return ed to each county by the state. These tables show that there was paid Into the state treasury by McKean county In that year $19,358.88. There was re turned to the county on account of personal property tax, judge's salary and schools alone $43,589.93, to say nothing of appropriations to charities. By charging the county with its pro portion of state expenses and hospi tal and charitable appropriations the auditor general makes the benefits re ceived by it amount to $92,445.14, as against $19,358.88 received from the county But we have been content to take the direct payments, which show that the county received more than twice what it paid. "The figures for McKean county are not exceptional. They are pro portionately the same for all the coun ties. The money Is collected from corporations and paid over to the counties to relieve the local burdens of taxation If the farmers and home owners in any county are taxed too much let them look into their local administration and seek relief thero. The state does not Impose a penny of tax on them." Henry L. Shattnck of Shellsburg, lowa, was cured of a stomach trouble with which he bad been afflicted for years, by four boxes of Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets. He had previously tried many other remedies and a number of physicians without relief. For sale by l'aules Ac < 'o. Relates to New Pupils.

Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood. All the blood in your body passes through your kidneys once every three minutes. fThe kidneys are your blood purifiers, they fil ter out the waste or impurities in the blood. If they are sick or out of order, they fail to do their work. Fains, aches and rheu matism come from ex cess of uric acid in the blood, due to neglected kidney trouble. Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady heart beats, and makes one feel as though they had heart trouble, because the heart is over-working in pumping thick, kidney poisoned blood through veins and arteries. It used to be considered that only urinary troubles were to be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all constitutional diseases have their begin ning in kidney trouble. If you are sick you can make no mistake by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's ; Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is soon realized.

A Great Storm Wave. A great storm wave Is peculiar to cy clones. At the center of the disturb ance the mercury In a good barometer may be lower by three Inches than that In a similar Instrument on tbe verge of the cyclone. This Is owing to the diminution of atmospheric pressure consequent on the rotation of the ulr wheel, and as nature abhors a vacuum the sea In the vortex rls«u above its usual level until equilibrium Is restor ed. This storm wave advances wltli the hurricane and rolls In upon the low land like a solid wall. In the Backer gunge cyclone of 1870 the storm wave covered the laud at the eastern end of tbe Ganges delta at heights varying from ten to forty-flve feet, as measured by marks on tbe trees. One hundred thousand lives were lost ou this OCCA- Blon.—Chambers' Jouruul. A l)iini;crnua Rapsrlincnt.
