APERTINENT QUESTION.

Chairman Wilson of the Ways and Means
committee is collecting material for tariff
reform bill, and he found In his mail the
other day some material which was not
just what he was looking for. 1t was in
the shape of an argument filed by James
Swsnk, representing the American Iron
and Steel association. The argument was
against tariff revision, and in the course of
1t Mr.. Swank asks the following question:
If there is no surplus in the treasury to be
reduced; If prices of domestic products are
fixed by home competition and not by tariff
dutiee; If they are now lower as a rule than
they have ever been in our history; If a
days wsges of an American workingman
will purchase more of the necessaries of
life under our present tariff than ever be-
fore; If the patriotism" that cares for the
general welfare is sanctioned by the con-
stitution and by the exact terms of our first
tariff act, what reason, or show of reason,
remains for revision of the tariff at this
timel
Mr.. Wilson hasn't found time to answer
and 1t Is not probable that he will. Mr.
Swank further calls attention to the IN
doubted fact that uncertainty regarding
| tariff changes has had much to do with tn
existing depression, and he asks whethe
the apprehension now felt shall be justifist
and intensified by persistence ia polio.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

People can't live on air, but such air as
we have had for the last two days is quite
help in living.
There is money enough, as will soon be
seen. There is now SIC, ,2s4, ,7S3 more cur
rency in the country and outside of the
treasury than there was a year ago, when
business was active and prosperous.
Postal cards have been In use hardly
twenty-three years and yet, according to
the Collector, there are now 5000 varieties
of them-st least, the Watson collection
contains that many. This collection in
cludes, however, various issues of the same
denomination, and also cards issued for
special occasions. There Is a postal card
society in this country which numbers 100
members.
Woman Is fast getting all that belongs
to her. Cigarette smoking by three lady
visitors In full evening dress was one of
the recent attractions on the terrace of
the house of commons. The Russian gov
eminent has also just Issued a decree
making it compulsory on railroad COM
panies to furnish smoking compartments
for women.
1t is about time. Ex-Minister Robert T.
Lincoln says that there is not a word of
truth in the story, which has been widely
published, that Abraham Lincoln, his
father, was Spiritualist or that he Is one
himself, nor any foundation for the accom-
panying assertion that Mr. Lincoln had
medium living In the White House while
he was president, and that among the
measures inspired by this means was the
emancipation proclamation.
There are some indications that mos
quitoes are as sharp intellectually as they
are physically. 1t has not been known
that they enjoyed free travel in Pullman
cars, but it is now related that mosquitoes
were unknown IN Atlanta, Georgia, before
the railroad companies began running
sleeping cars from Savannah into that city.
They avail themselves of the opportunity
afforded by them, and are most apt to con-
gregate there in September and October,
when they come by the thousand.
An old and comforting theory has re.
ceived setback from Archibald Buchanan,
a locomotive engineer In the service of
the Hudson River railroad, who was
asked what he would do if he saw that
collision could not be avoided, replied:
What I would not do is to reverse my
engine, although many engineers are lis-
BILE to lose their heads at critical moment
and make that mistake. 1t Is a curious
thing that reversing your engine when 60
ing at high speed makes the train go
faster instead of slower. The reason is
that the drivers alp and the locomo-
tive shoots ahead as If she were on
skates.

A New Industry.

We are credibly informed that a new
industry will soon be planted in this place
for the manufacture and sale of the Col
umbia oil burners. The company has al
ready been formed by the following
named persons: e. E. Hustled, F. W. Ben
nett und G. L. Couch, Of this place, and B,
N. Hawes, of Norwalk, The castings and
fixtures will be manufactured by the We'll
lington Machine company and the office
and store room will be In the ]. Fl. Yocum
building on Railroad street.
The burner is designed to be used in
all kinds of stoves and furnaces, and is
fed by oil, which is converted into con
bustlble gas as good as natural gas. The
oil is conveyed into generator where II
is converted into vapor. The design
was patented in 1880 and has been in con-
slant use ever since and is giving the best
of satisfaction. The cost of fuel is abou
two thirds that of wood or coal and is free
frum dust or smoke.
We are assured by the gentlemen inter
ested that the business will soon be run
ming in order TO supply the orders now OF
hand. We wish them success In every
particular.
