The Illinois Congressman's Message
to Pennsylvania.
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."

DEMOCRATIC SCHEME EXPOSED
Trying to Pool the Farmers By a Mis
statement of Facts.
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."

Some persons, it seems, have mis*
construed the extract of the school law
printed yesterday relating to vaccina
tion. Pupils who have been success
fully vaccinated and presented a cer

year as the very fact of previous at
tendance at school should put the
pupil on record as having complied
with the law. The extract printed re

may have attended last year without
having been"successfully" vaccinated
will in the light of yesterday's article

considered very cheap. The homestead
place is under a good state of cultiva

Overwork Weakens
Your Kidneys.
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

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-

enemies by making them your friends?"
said the man of noble Inspirations.
"1 wouldn't dure try It," answered
Senator Sorghum. "As soon as I made
any overtures of friendship they would
think they had me down, und they
would begin to try to Jump ou me." -
