J.Sierliiifj Morton ; and hy virtue of the
syndicate shackles upon his conscience,
-nI vice-presiilent of the Santa Fe U. H.
Said article was conimrnted upon by the t-
Register, to the effect Umt most demo
crats wlio cliange their politics are not
actuated by honest purpose but by hope
cr,f romise of gain? AVe little dreamed,
however, when we made the Etateuient,
hcw-oon we were to hear the proof of
Morton's perfidy or learn the reward of
his iniquity. It now transt-ires that he
hn been appointed secretary of the
navy, by Roosevelt, has obtained nine
menths leiwe of absence from Jiis com
pany and wm sworn into ofliee-on July
1st. Takug the statement of the MM
to-be true, and we have no reason to
doubt it, that Morton was a democrat,
then it goes on record as one of the great
est lightening change acts in the history
of. political legerdemain; a democrat,
republican, 2nd vice-president of a great
corporation, secretary of. the U.S. navy,
drawing a fat salary from at least two
sources, and probably some other things
rclueh we have overlooked we a -e not

three or four weeks. Evidence, probably,
of -the Roosevelt strenuousness;
How-

can now squat himself down bv the salt.
sad sea and mingle the briny testimony
of his grief therewith, because of no
mqre worlds to conquer; and if this does
not occupy the full measure of his . tiuie
he,can put in the balance praying for
the reformation of the republican party,
hopeless though the task must prove.
But our friend of the Mist, yearning for
30fcue narcotic to quiet the maunderings
of -his sin-tortured conscience, claims he
ha? discovered another flopper. In last
-.veeks issue he states that Mr. James
Bonser, of Sauvio's Island, has informed
him .hat he intends to vote for Roose
velt; and calls upon some one. wliose
physical design is the par excellence of
his ideal of manly shape, to take it up.
Our modesty forbids the hope that we
cao-fill the specifications laid down hv
the Chesterfieldiarteditor of the Mist,
but we desire to say that we have no
idea that Mr. Bonser anticipates making
the race for representative or is looking
'or an appointment in Alaska or even in
the president's cabinet. If be contem
plates voting for Itoosevelt we presume
he is actuated by sincere motives-and is
not lookittg for office. AVe make no kick
r.t those who change their politics
Ihrough honest inducements 15ut the
offices throughout the country are so
generally filled with renegade democrats
as to occasion alarm among thinking
people; for the man who flops for office
is not trustworthy. Not being Acquaint
ed -with Mr. Bonser we are unable to say
whether he fear8 coyotes or not, we are
no.tsaih with our system overflowing
with prophecy, yet we venture the asser
tion that neither the fear of coyotes nor
the horrors of Gehenna would deter
tlagg from hunting office and hunting

American Qooda Ar Cbeapvr Abroatr
Tkaa at lloaa.
Reuntor Gulllugor of New ITainpshlr
admitted In his lute speectt In tho sen
ate 011 tho blessings and advantages of
a protective tariff that tho selling,
abruud of manufactured goods ohenpun
than in this country was a menus of.
disposing of suridus stock nnd to over
come, tariffs of other countries. He
ulo declared that selling our products
cheapen aDroad than hero -wrm AO se
cure new inaikeU aud hold them
ngaliiHt competition, to keep mills la
operation, to get rid ot out of data -goods.
Ho nl ho suggested that for
these sales cash instead of credit -Is tho -custom
nnd that tho expense- of sales
abroad hi less than In this country..
This admission . of tho Democratic -claim
that tho. trusts aro selling their'
products cheaper abroad than hero
coming from Senator Ualllngcr, who ln
0110 of the high -priests of tho l'rotec- -tlvo
Tariff league, is most important,,
for no one -is so well informed of trust
doings as ho Is.
Hut Senator Gnlllnger should bava
explained how a manufacturer who4
disposes of. lis surplus stock abroad at'
less than ho has sold tho greater part:
of his stock here "to overcoino foreign 1
tariffs" will '-bo benefited "by secnrJng;.
new markets and holding them cgalnstT
competition" unless ho makes a profit',
on these transactions. It is absurd to
argue, as Senator Galllpger does, that
tho foreigners accept "out of dato
goods' and pay cash for them unless,
tlioso goods'oro' Bold at n mnoh less-
price than slmllnr goods, mnnnfactttrcxla
in foreign countries, are sold for. Tho
foreign buyers aro not buying "out of r
dnto goods" unless at auction prices, .
and that trndo would certainly be un
profitable to our manufacturers.
, JtiMilco io sir. Brlnton.
Tho Associated Tress claims to be rc
liable about tho 'facts it sends out to
tho newspapers,- but H appears to bav-
peon entirely nilsictrlri an account ots
a banquet of tho Illinois Manufactur
ers' association at Chicago last De-
ceniber. In it Mr. W B.-. Brinton. ono-
of tho speakers, was madeMo nny that
no expected serious - trouble between
capital nnd labor,- and an article com- -mentlng
on this was published ln
many newspapers. Mr. Brinton nro-
testod that ho did not use tho language-
ascribed to him, and from the steno
graphic report of lilg speech, which;,
lias been furnished by Secretary
Glenn of v tho Illinois Manufacturers'!'
association, the remarks ascribed to
mm by the-Associated Press, which
were commented upon, do mot nnnenr.
This correction is considered tho more
necessary as the speech of Mr. Brintoa
was of the 'most fair and temperate) -nature
and shows big sympathy withl
tho laboring men in bis employ and
Lis anxiety, to better their condition.

. Another Scandal Coming;.
The war department is now run ont 1
such nn extravagant baBls that a mat
ter of a million or two evidently seems -nothing
to those who have the order
ing of -how tbe Thllipplne funds BhalF
be expended. When the matter la
finally t investigated, another scandali
will be added which, will probably ex -cel
thoso already charged to this- ad-v
mlnistraUon. 4 .. '
