Phone Main 82. TARIFF MO LONGER POLITICAL. OME of our exchange take the L potrition that the proposed tariff changes baa created an issue on A, 1 which the republican party can again unite. That issue is the prosperity of the country against ruined business and adversity. This listens good, but we call attention to the old proverb that "he that boaeteth when he pulleth on his armor is unwise," and it also points out the wisdom of waiting to do the boasting until the armor is taken off. We are moved to make this sugges tion by the fact that democrats will be in power for four years yet, at least so far a the presidont is concerned, and presumably we will have to get along under whatever tariff bill is passed, for at least that time. It remains to be seen what effect the new tariff law will have on business. Any statement as to what effect the law will have that is made now is only a matter of eonjecture based npon belief, opinion, or mayhap party or political prejudice. There is another fact in It that does not want to be overlooed, ayd that Is the tariff question is no longer one be tween democrats and republicans, but is between the people and the trusts. It is not one between the consumer and who rose to distinction and secured both a wife and a seat in the United States senate by marrying the daugh ter of the lat Hon. William Sharon, the Comstock mining magnate of palmy days, say he remembers there used to be something of that kind he believes they called them lobbyists, some 20 years ago, but the race is extinct. In tho meanwhile these bland old hypo crites admit that the secretary of the National Wool Growers' association is in Washington, doing all he can to pre vent the tariff being removed and he has an army of "helpers." They con fess with charming naivety that repre sentative sugar refineries and growers are plentiful around the senate cham bers, but they are there only for the purpose of preventing any change in the tariff on sugar. They with child like candor and artlessnoss point out steel magnates, manufacturers of all kinds by the hundreds, whose sole occu pation is buttonholing senators and try ing to influence legislation. Our own dear dolighted unsophisti cated senator, Harry Lane, says: "I do not consider those calling on me lobbyists, I think they are looking af ter their own interests." Now, wouldn't that jar youf Just think of our great state, with one United States Loss of Appetite Is loss of vitality, vigor or tone, and Is often a forerunner of prostrating dis ease. It is serious and especially so to people that must keep up and doing or gel behindhand.

It is this way Is after him, tho sooner the recall is with the tariff.

Time will disclose all that is good or bad In the Underwood tariff, and nothing else can. Tf it proves really Injurious it will be changed, but the big trusts dare not create another panic and ennse disorder In order to gain their unholy' ends. The people have no kindly feeling towards the big corporations and trusts, and if the lilt tor get gav tliev will be dealt with In a way that will put them out of business forever. There is no politics In the tariff this time and the big suckling bilbos who have sucked tariff pap until they are all stomach and no brains can not again play one party off against another. They havo tho people to deal w ith this time, and they do not want to overlook that fact. a rat T II HUE 8KKMS tn bo a wide dif ference of opinion as to there bo lug lobbyists In Washington. President Wilson says they are so thick that one cannot throw a brick in the capital oily of the nation without hitting one of them, while the senators, the bland, child-like, unsuspic ious politicians, who have never come in contact with any of the ruder things of life says there Is none. They even go further and express surprise and aston ishment over the alleged discovery of lobbyists in Washington. One wanted to know what it was. Another inno cently asked if it was one of those fruit peats the scientists keep on dis covering. While Newlands of Nevada, THE WILT DIPLOMATIC JAP. HE JAP has tho Orietnal trait of wiliness developed to its utmost limit. While the present genera tion of .laps Is practically self , governing, but a generation ago they as n people were under one of the most despotic forms of government one where the ruler's word was the supremo lnw. For ages the .lap has been in this condition, and hence sub terfuge and diplomacy havo become a race characteristic. They have been forced to accomplish their ends by sub terfuge, diplomacy and evasion, rather than by force. Their attempt to gain a foothold in California shows this trait. We, some of us, have talked about the Japs going to war to enforce their de mand that they be permitted to own lands in California. This was, and is, all foolish talk. The Jap doesn't take that method. If he can not get In at tho front door, he watches his chance nt the kitchen, or by way of the base ment. The Jap knows, as well as do other nations the meaning of the Monroe Doctrine. He not only is not going to make war on the United States, but he is not going to openly violate the Mon roe Doctrine. Japan needs an outlet for her crowded conditions. Her fam ily has grown too large for the old home farm to suport, and she must harc more room. No one can blame her for this for necessity cntncls her. In view of this situation of Japan's condition, the suggestion of Pastor Itniwclt that the United Slates turn over to Japan the Philippine Islands is worthy of consideration. We have no use for the islands, they are an expense to us, and we are holding them more as a duty we owe, not only to the Filipinos, but to the world, than for any other reason. They are incapable of self government, but Japan can, and will, govern them wisely, humanely and well better, per haps, than we do or can, for they are of kindred blood and understand each other. In the meanwhile, though Japan is I now engaged in getting around the Monroe .Doctrine very successfully and peacefully. She is invading Brajil, just as she attempted to invade California, and this, too, in so quiet and unobtru sive a manor that Uncle Sam's feel ings are not disturbed nor the glorious American eagle's tail feathers even ruf fled. She is doing by diplomacy what she could not do by force. She is invading Brazil and her in vading hosts are welcomed with open arms by the Brazilians, who would stand for anything rather than work. The immense land holdings there, now used as cattle ranges, are being leased by the Japs and the Little Brown Men are quietly and unostentatiously getting a foothold that can never be loosened. With immense tracts and long leases, they are locating to stay. May 15, this year, 1500 Japs were landed at Santos, Brazil, under the Sao Paulo coloniza tion agreement recently- entered into and under which the first lease of 150,- 000 acres of land was made to the Japs. Under this agreement, Japan can send as many of her subjects into Bra zil as she pleases. This accounts partly for Japan's taking California's act so quietly. She doesn't care two cents whether her people get into California or not, for she has a better thing and is just making a bluff at Woodrow and W. J. while sho gets busy in Brazil. She is not violating the Monroe Doc trine. She is, as all others have done, following Oregon's lead and that of Dr. Owens-Adnir, sterilizing it. She i-t accomplishing by peaceful invasion what she could not hope to do by force nd which sho would not attempt. From Brazil, her people will spread over the entire southern continent and a hun dred years from now, or perhnps in less time than that, tho Japanese empire on the American continent will havo its northern boundary at the Panama canal zone and its southern limit nt Cape Horn. Tho following out of Tastor RnsBcll's idea, tho turning of tho Phil ippines over to tho Japs, would delay this movement and might result In stopping it. As it is, it is another ques tion that will soon bob up to worry the national administration. It is of little importance now, in size, but the prin ciple is involved of America for Ameri cans, and as to the size of the move ment, it can bo depended on to grow We Are Here With The Best Values K m - fa r I a I jr mf ja. h tme STORE THAT SAVES YOU MONEY Pacel Post at Your Service Extraordinary Values Offered for this Week's Selling In up-to-date, stylish Summer Goods.

Turning its pages hnstilv, the first of the alleged facts was: "Cuba, which produces all our imported sugar, is selling now sugar, landed in New York, at 2.10 cents. As the Philippines and Japan send us 310,. OHO tons, the Philippines 1100,000 tons, (iormnny and other countries lO.'.OOO tons, or a total of more than one-third of all the sugar consumed in the United States, it would seem that tho domestic sugar producers were not dealing In facts, but running a cold bluff and publishing a deliberate lie to further an indefensible cause. However, that is the kind of fact dealt in by political organs and social trade journals, which rely nKn the prejudices, credibility and ignorance of at least a portion of their readers, whom they not only hope to but do Influence by their false state ments.

To one having seen the majority of the up-to-the-minute haberdasheries and clothing stores throughout the East, it certainly is a pleasure to find' here in Salem a store which compares unusual ly favorably with any in the East, and one far in excess of any betweon Port land and San Francisco. This store con tains features not found in any other west of Chicago. This store is but yon have already guessed that I refer to The Toggery. It occupies a space 18xl50 feet with the finest of fixtures. It has two windows made of Oyni plate glass with tiling and brass finishing. The Toggery has been in the same lo cation since its establishment, October, 1905, and has from its beginning sobf nothing but the very best lines of men 's furnishings, shoes and clothing lines; that are nationally known and nation ally advertised. These lines are: The Florsheim shoes i the shoe that men like, for it has won for itself an enviable place in masculine esteem. In the first place, as to externals, they appeal on the score of distinctively gooT style. Next, as to wearing quality, they prove themselves trusty friend that a man can feel at home with, or rather in. For they're comfortable and easy. Lastly, they talk to his poeketbook in a way no other shoes do along a money-saving line. Shoes you'd pav at least a dollar more for ! somewhere else. Seasonable underwear Many a man 13 hot and irritable because his under wear is uncomfortable and yet he does not realize it. Cooper's make a spe cialty of it the abnormally stout or thin, regular, long or short arms al ways a comfortable fitting garment. About 75 per cent of the men in mercantile and professional life owe something of their success to personal appearance. The leisure class owe still more to the same cause. The few gf.niuses succeed in spite of it. Per sonal appearance is largely a matter of dress. . Dress is largely a matter of neckwear. This was understood by some as far back as the days of Bean Brummel, but it is only since Kieser's neckwear has been on the market that this generation of men have fully grasped it. If ever grace, distinction, fashion, fit, wear and all around excellence were compressed into a suit, they are in David Alder & Son 's suits. Thev have fit, they are shapely, they have tone; not one detail neglected. Not this shape oi that shape in particular, but every shape that is shapely. They will give satisfaction from the time you buy them until they are threadbare. At the price, they show men how to dress well and have money left for other things. You can also find at The Toggery the Cluett & Cuffturn shirts, Onyx hos iery all at the top of the ladder. In point of merchandise, facility for display, variety of Btock, dependable character, value for price, and liberal ity to customers, the proprietors Mersrs. Jno. J. Roberts and David R. Yantis have determined thnt no store shall surpass them. The past year is graphic substantiation of this determination, There is no real need of anyone be ing troubled with constipation.

WHAT IS THE TRUTH? (Continued from yesterday.) Every newspaper that is vigorous and prints today's news today is bo'ind to be criticised along these lines, yet t the critics themselves were placed in the managing editor's chair for a week they would serve the general public no better than other editors are now and have been serving the public. Niint.v per cent of the litigation of tho world arises through misunderstandings. Judges and juries have to be arbiters, whereas, they are supposed to deal only with hard cold facts and judges ami juries have ample time to hear evidence. and sift it, where as newspapers work with a rush. That very rush is requir ed of them by the reading public that they serve. Mr. Hunt points out that it is almost always impossible to get the exact truth, and also that when a reporter has laid the exact truth before his edi tor, there is nearly always lacking proof that it is the truth. While I said that I was going to dis cuss this particular point, I feel that Mr. Hunt's own conclusion is as good as can be written: f required to reply "yes" or "no'' to the question: "Cau a newspaper print the truth t" the investigator is- almost compelled to express the nega tive. Even were truth a fixed thing, a perfectly frank and truthful newspaper could not survive. The postal laws and public opinion soon would put a quietu upon it. It would literally swim in libel suits. It could not procure adver tising to carry it far, and a uewspaer without advertising is not a newspaper. Perhaps a safe rule is something like this: If the truth seems to be de structive, repress or even suppree it; if it seems to be creativo, print it; but let us have a care, in reaching conclu sions, that we are following neither so evil genius on the one hand nor a will-o'-the-wisp on the other.
