OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU,. Wash ington, Aug. 27. The Hartford Courant, In a belated editorial on the Idaho Re publican tariff declaration, says: It Is a surprise though we not know that It should he to find the Idaho Republicans occuylng a more advanced position on the tariff than the Iowa Republicans. They ara protectionists, of course, being: Republicans; but they are not petrified protectionists. After quoting their declaration for re vision, '"without unreasonable delay," the Courant adds: We don't know what the Idaho Republicans would consider unreasonable delay. We don't believe they want a revision of the DIgley tariff from end to end this coming Winter. Certainly the party at large does not want it, nor does the country. The right way Is to proceed prudently 'and conservatively, with no unnecessary disturbance to business, to make the Jew plainly needed and wise changes that will deprive the enemies of the protective tariff of their most effective ammunition, and then to rest for a time, as long a time as sound judgment, based on an Intelligent study of things as thoy, are, may Indicate the goal to be kept In eight. William McKinley indicated It before his death. In that last and great speech of his, the Buffalo speech on reci procity, he bade us be taking thought and making ready to use the no longer needed protective duties In our tariff as keys with which to unlock for American products the markets beyond the seas.

Teller of a Pittsburg: Bank in Jail for Embezzlement. PITTSBURG. Aug. 27. H. H. Brlnker. formerly receiving teller of th n National Bank, is in Jail, -charged with emDezziement. The amount of the short age charged to him is 520,600. which, it Is alleged, the bank was defrauded of by Brinker manipulating the deposit slips. Cashier Ramsey, of the bank, says the incident Is closed so far as the bank is concerned, as the Mercantile Trust Com pany, which was on Brlnker's bond for $15,000, settled In full in July last, since which time Brlnker has been trying to pay the trust company. As the payments on the bond since then have been compar atively small, the company decided to pJaco Brlnker In prison as a defaulter. Speculation In stocks caused the teller's downfall. The Wake Island Incident. WASHINGTON, Aug. 27.-Thc statement that the United States Is about to dis patch a warship to Wake Island for the purpose of ejecting the Japanese Is er roneous. Some time ago an American 6hlp, which touched at Wake Ielnnd, re ported that a number of Japanese jctre living on the Island, and this led to moro or less confused reports concerning on alleged claim supposed to have been set up by Japanese to sovereignty over the island. Several conferences1 between State Department officials here and Mr. Takahlra, the Japanese Mlnioter, fol lowed and were concluded by a definite admission on the part of the Japanese Minister that his government made no claim to sovereignty over the Island. Later, the Navy Department ordered the commander of the training ship Adams, which will leave about September 2, for her cruise of the Pacific, to touch at Wake Island and report upon conditions there. There is not even a suggestion In those orders looking to the ejectment of such Japanese as may be found on th9 island. American sovereignty over the island Is not questioned by Japan. Beef Trust Inquiry. ST. JOSEPH. Mo., Aug. 27. The beet trust inquiry, begun yesterday, was con tinued today. The Interest was much greater and the attendance larser. The cross-examination of John "Vuua. a local butcher, who had testified to the exist ence of a combination among the pack ers, brought out very little of importance. He admitted that the retail butchers had agreed upon a scale of prices, but said that this was rendered necessary by the packers' trust. He also admitted that the packers had made "concessions" in the matter of over-ripe meat which he had sold at the regular scale as first class meat. Greek Cnrrnnt Crop Injured. NEW YORK. Aug. 27.

He was followed in an address by Pres ident Charles S. Ashley, Mayor of New Bedford. Mass. Mr. Ashley said that much thought and discussion given to the-subject of municipal admin istration oy tne members of the league, and' they had been the cause of provok ing concentrated attention to the question of municipal ownership.

I ask you to note that X say -'have the right to own,' for I do not undertake to say that at this time in every com munity it would he a feasible thing to exercise that right, but ln the very' nature of things It Is a privilege which we should not be longer dented. "Competition in the products of the pub lic service corporations too often means that consolidation will follow, and the consumer evidently pay all the bills. Pure monopoly means that the price de manded will bo far beyond the fair capac ity of the debtor to pay. Regular monop oly, -through the instrumentality of tho state, is a farce and practically amounts to legalized bunco. The right to enter into the field with municipal ownership provides a means of saying to the oppressor.

At this afternoon's session of the con vention. Major j. M. Head, of Nashville. Tenn., was the first speaker, his topic being "Transportation and Taxation." He advocated public ownership and control of public utilities. The feature of the even ing session was the address of Mayor Samuel Jones, of Toledo. His subject was, 'What Is Crime, and Who Are the Crim inals?" He said society was the real criminal, and not the man or the individ ual. In condemning the present criminal -system he said: "The preacher in the pulpit, the Judge on the bench, the worklngman on tho street are a part of this system, which 13 sick from head to foot and must share In the evil until we purge the whole mass.

The Amer ican Bar Association began its 25th an nual meeting here today with a large at tendance of delegates. President U. M. Rose, of Little Rock. Ark., delivered an address. He spoke feelingly of the death of President McKlnley. and said that the execution of the assassin failed to satisfy the Just demands of the violated law. He deplored the fact that anarchistic lltor ature Is disseminated freely through tho mails, and that public meetings whore "speeches of the most incendiary charac ter are made by refugees from foreign lands" are permitted to be held. President Rose poke at length on trusts, saying In part: "Our country during the last 30 years has witnessed a change of such magni tude as to be without a single parallel In history. By means of vast aggregations of money, corporate monopolies have been established in almost every branch of in dustry. What effect theso tremendous creations will have on our future destiny morally, roclally, financially, legally, no one ventures to predict with any degree of confidence If it is trueas said by Oliver Cromwell, that "no one goes so far as the man that does not Tcnbw "where he Is go ing, we are apparently entering upon a long Journey. "The Supreme Court of the United States antf'several of our Presidents have more than once called attention to the gravity or the" situation, and we cannot suppose that mem occupying such posi tions of responsibility -would only excite public apprehension. President Roosevelt has said more than once that the power of corporations over prices should be subr Jected to public control. Very rccVttly he said: We may need, and. In my belief, we do' need, new legislation, enacted In no radical or .revolutionary spirit, but In a spirit of common sense, common "honesty and a resolute desire to face facts as they are.' This language Is clear, and will meet with general approval. The prin cipal difficulty pertains to the remedy. President Roosevelt said that the remedy sometimes proposed with seeming confi dence was that of publicity, but he de clared that public! ty would only serve' to prolong the present situation. "Another remedy suggested," he said, "Is an amendment to' the Federal Consti tution giving power to Congress to control all corporations, a very drastic remedyj indeed, one that would greatly strengthen the lobby, one that might introduce an era of political corruption hitherto un known." President Rose said that tho Sherman anti-trust law fails to 'meet all the diffi culties of the situation, adding: "Whether this act exhausted the powers of Congress over the subject-matter is a question about which thero may be a dif ference of opinion." At the conclusion of Judge Rose's ad dress, routine business and the reading of reports were taken up. v The Bar Association tonight elected gen eral counsel from each state and terri tory.

Today the committee on sta tistics and good of the order presented a majority report recommending repeal of this action. A minority report, which did not take In the question of repeal, but recommended certain changes In the table, was presented and supported by Mrs. Francis Burns, of Michigan, and others. D. P. Mnrkey. of Port Huron, Mich., led the 'fight for the majority re port, which was adopted, along with a motion to refer the whole matter of a morlullty table to a committee of seven.

LONDON, Aug. 27, Tho Times this morning publishes an editorial article dis cussing President Roosevelt's decision to appeal from party wirepullers to tho peo ple on the trust question. The paper says: "This is a bold decision if President Roosevelt -la ambitious of a second term, but he Is 3hrewd as well as courageous. We cannot, however, venture to form a judgment of bis chances of success against the 3trong forces arrayed on the opposite side. Tho American people themselves have no very clear idea on this subject, and their political prophets are all at sea, In their speculations. "It la Interesting to observe that in Aus tria it is frankly assumed that Mr. Roosevelt's- object Is to throw a protecting shield over the""capjtal!sts and that his at tacks on the trusts are retarded with- sus picion by American protectionists. "The result of the struggle between a craving for protection and impatience of monopoly will soon te visible In the United States, and Mr. Roosevelt apparently will have credit for having raised a great Issue with conspicuous fearlessness." A German View. BERLIN. Aug. 27. President Roosevelt's advocacy of Government supervision of txusts has caused the Post, of this city. -to discuss a "new trust danger." It says Germany, and, Indeed, all Europe, must be on Its guard." The Kreuz Zeltung, In a leader on "American Imperialism," says: "American arrogance is directed not only against Germany, but against all Europe. This arrogance Is the outgrowth of the puritanical belief In the God-given mission and Its own Invulnerable position." STORMS AND FLOODS IN ORIENT. Typhoon at Ilonff Kong Caused a Number of Deaths.

People are never weak except from some good cause. One of the obscure causes of weakness and tho one of tenest overlooked Is catarrh. Catarrh Inflames the mucous membrane and causes the blood plasma to escape through the mucous membrane In the form of mucus. This discharge of mucus Is the same as the loas of blood. It pro duces weakness. Peruna stops the catarrh and prevents tho discharge of mucus. This Is why Pe runa Is called a tonic. -Peruna does not glvo strength by stimulating the nervous system a little. - It gives strength by preserving the mu cous membranes against leakage. It gives strength by converting the TO TREAT AND NOW IS THE TIME SPECIAL NOTiCE-Office Hours From 9 A. M. to 1 P. M. Evenings, Tuesday and Friday From 6:30 to 8:30. Sunday From 9 A. M. to 12 M.
