INTO THE SCRAP HEAP.
No good citizen could look at Jos-
eph Tulltzer or even at bis picture
without an iniitlnrtlve desire to see
blni prosecuted; but Joseph Pulitzer
was not tbe issue in Roosevelt's fa-
mous libel cases.
Tbe issue was whether the press
generally should pass under federal
censorship whether any federal law
existed creating the cr'me of libel on
the whole people represented in the
government and If no whether the
defendant named were guilty of that
crime. Incidental to this but not set
out In the papers was no doubt the
hope that the prosecution of these
newspapers would lead to some means
for prohibiting the press and the pub-
lic from saying mean things about
men In very blKb life.
The decision of Federal Judge
Hough dismissing the whole matter
tory enactments of tbe states on that
subject.
Better still there is no lese majeste
In the land where "every citizen Is
a sovereign but where no one withes
to wear a crown."
Hereafter we may a heretofore
denounce the government at Wash-
ington as a howling travesty on en-
lightened rule and still live outside
au Iron cage.
We can call the president a pom-
pous paralleloplpedon hi secretary of
war a hateful hypotenuse his secre-
tary of sericulture n troglodytlc old
Trlptolenu. If we want to and not
be dragged away in federal chain to
Washington and fed to the rarnivora
of centralized oppression.
When mere animal existence come
a IiIkIi as it does now surely the In-
tellectual Joy of living print and pal-
aver ought to be free; and It 1.
The law allows it and the court
awards it.
Judge Hough should go on his va-
cation early thl summer. He has
done a plenty for one year.
The favorite lares and petiate of
the Roosevelt reign are In the scrap
heap. In our ancient liberty we are
secure let us rejoice.
In the gneat gladness of abiding
hope which sings at Its work li t us
trim the orchard trees man the split-
log drag and plant more hogs. Fort
Worth Star-Telegram.
THE TARIFF.
It is well to get our bearings as we
go along; this for Instance from the
Kansas City Star:
"The original idea of protection was
simply to nurse nn Industry long
enough to demonstrate its ability or
Inability to compete with foreign In-
dustries without protection and to
withdraw that protection after a con
vincing period of expermlentaton. It
wa never Intended to make the Amer-
ican consumers pay the tariff tax on
necessities indefinitely In order to fos-
ter the manufacture or something In
this country that could be Imported
without duty at lower cost. Instead
of discontinuing this policy however
mate consumer so long a the blgh
tariff Is maintained. Waco Times
Herald. N
Right now Is the crucial moment
with the farmers of Texas settling on
the acreage of tbe various crops. If
they make It all cotton the old crop
mortgage system will come back next
year; but If they make It a general
diversification the bank vaults will
bulge with money and Mr. Farmer
will have the cash to plank down for
everything he buys and be Independ-
ent of everything and everybody on
the face of the earth.
According to the reports of polltax
payments Texas ha nearly Too.oo.i
qualified voters. I'lty the poor candi
date for governor who has to button
hole that many men. .
At present price of engs 100 layliiK
hen on the farm mean an inconi"
every week of 112.7."'. not counting Sun-
day. The Sunday ckk w ill be sufll-
dent for home use. Surely evry
farmer with Just a little attention
could have li0 laying hen. When
our farmer learn to give the glori-
ous American hen the attention she
deserves she will not br1 long In teach-
ing him the meaning of the fable of
"The golden egg."'
The man with the dinner pall is the
forerunner of proserlty. What Bry-
an needs to do Is to Increase her tin

rase BUrh n n was a pilars to knock

all dangers to free speech and a free

and into the limbo of great schemes
that flashed flickered and failed.
There is no federal libel law cov-
ering slurs on I'ncle Sam.
There is In fart no federal libel
law at all separate from the statu-
dined and the graft of the tariff Is
the basis of the excessive cost of liv-
ing at this time."
If the reader will clip that out and

at all times have a clear definite
statement of the whole tariff question.
