Ex-senator Davis on Froo conl.

Ex-senator Davis on Free CoaI.
Republican opposition to putting
bituminous coal on the free list may be
very senseloss, as the Democratic or
gans are saying. but this is not the
view OF SO distinguished a Democrat as
ex-senator Henry G.. Davis, whose
views o. the subject the ISrELLIGEScER
is glad to give at length.
Mr.. Davis understands the subject he
is dealing with and does not permit his
Democracy to turn his very level bust
ness head. When Nova Scotia begins
to supply West V~ireinia's eastern mar
kets West Virginia will realize that
something has happened. The effect on
the railroad business and the railroad
development OF the state will be yerv
marked.
Merchants who sell to miners OF
West Virginia coal will be at liberty to
see whether they can make up their
loss OF trade by selling 10 miners OF
Novia Scotia coal; and farmers who
have been finding a market in the min
ing regions OF West Virginia may 90
along with the merchants to see what
they pick up in Nova Scotia.

THE TARIFF ON GOAL.
Ex-senator Davis Reviews the
History of Legislation.
THE WILSON BILL 4 DEPARTURE
From a Principle That Has Ruled in
All Previous Tariff Bills-It IS the
First Measure That Has Ever placed
Coal on the. Free List-The Bill

Anthracite coal has been on the free
list for many years, andi is tine only coal
in domestic use in Now England, New
York and New Jersey. which section
would furnish a market for foreign
Goals.
Bitu,ninous coal in the east is used
almost exclusively by gas, electric,
railway, steamship and steamboat COM
panies and by manufacturing establish
ments.
The duty on bituminous coal is rs
cents per ton, which is less than half
the average per cent paid on dutlaple
articles under the present tariff.
No tariff act, from the organization
OF the government down to this con
gross, has put coal OF the free list.
Between 1856 oRd5lS66 there was q
reciprocal treaty with Canada which
admitted, among other articles, coal
into each country free of dutyi other
foreign Goals paid a duty.
The tariff act Of 1916. known as the
"Walker' or low tariff, put coal at so
per cent. nd valorem. The duty has
been rs nigh as $3.50 per ton.
The average duty on coal from tho
first tariff in 1870 TO the present law has
been over 81 per ton. Tho per cent OF
duty on coal previous to 1850 was gcn-
orally higher than that OF the average
dutiablo article. The, average per cent
of dutiable articles under the present
tariff ia about As; on coal %. The per
cent of duty on the present and pro-
posed tariff on nearly everything used
by the miner and operator, such as
wearing apparel, blankets, carpets, far
niture, picks, shoyels, steel and iron, is
higher than the present duty on coal.
Ii the tariff on coal is to be reduced,
there is no good reaeon why it should
be reduced below the average reduction
on all other dutiable articles.
The changes from time 10 time in the
duty on. bituminous coal is shown in
the following compilation of the tariff
laws. to wit:

Tno Heart of a Royal Princess.

The theory is that a royal princess
has no heart. Somehow or other sue
pets along without that organ SO neces-
sary to common people. When she
marries she takes for her d
man who has been selected Tor her aud
makes the best she can OF the bargain
She is not expected to love, neither IS
her husband. All that is hoped OF the
union is that the passive parties to 1t
will transmit the family blood n
avoid scandal.
The Princess Elizabeth OF Bavaria,
about whose secret marriage to a poor
baron and lieutenant S o much Is being
said, differs from the regulation royal
princess in this, that she has a heart.
She discovered it when she was about
fourteen years old, at that time meeting
the Young Baron Seefried at a chlidren's
reception. They both loved at first
sight.
In the girls diary, q remarkably we'll
written record OF which some pages
are printed, she with herself
on her love, her station, the young
baron's station, and wishes that h
were not a royal princess but a plain
girl with a heart to dispose OF as b
p~leases. Five years later. now a young
woman OF nineteen, she meets the young
lieutenant at another reception; and
now they are married and there is a
great hubbub over it. Whatever else
may be true OF this royal princess she
has a heart.

that it was q matter of aNile satin gown

than to send the information direct to

Bear in mind that no iavors were

Why These Iiowls2

Last Friday, when 4 Democrat who
thing to the sainted Wilson bill, forty
seven Democrats were either not pres
rent or not voting. II these statesmen
had been in line with their party and
its bill there would have been no occa-
sion for a Democratic newspaper to
whine that Republicans care are on
the ground and could make n quorum
ut any time, but they deliberately
break one"
This Democratic newspaper shall be
nameless, out of respect for it's feelings.
but our good friend the Register will not
say that nothing OF this sort has ap7
peared in a Democratic newspaper.
The Democrats have SO large q majority
inEthe house that they need never ask
the Republicans to help them to get
nquorum, always provided they can in
duce their own members to be there rs a
physical fact, and in keeping with the
Democratic parliamentary theory which
holds q member to be absent unless he
answers when his name is called.
The Republicans had no such trouble
some theory. When a member was
there no was there. because your Uncle
Thomas B. Reed was thore as speaker
of the house and backed by q majority
which thought it the business of con-
gross to do business.
It may DO unlSind of tho Republicans
not to return good for evil, to decline
politely to fill up the empty Democratic
seats and TO answer for those Demo-
cats who are present but refuse to vote
but Republicans can hardly BIO blamed
for Democratic delinquencics. Nor can
they be held alone responsible for Dem
ocratic opposition to tho Wilson bill,
which has induced Democrats to hold
that Democratic measure down while
they trying to devise schemes to
compass its defeat.
If, as We also read in q Democratic
newspaper, it be the Republican sob
ject to defeat the revival OF business un-
der q Democratic administration" what
is tho object OF those Democrats who
are doing their level best to knock out
the bill?

Strange stories are told of the Dokos,
who live among the moist, warm bam-
boo woods to the south of Kaffa and
Susa in Africa. Only feet high, of q
dark olive color, savage and naked, they
have no fire. They live only on ants,
mice and serpents, diversified by few
roots and fruits. They let their nails
grow long, like tafons, the better to dig
for ants and the more easily to tear in
pieces their favorite snakes The Dokos
used to be invaluable as slaves, and they
were taken in large numbers. The slave
hunters used to hold up bright colored
clothes as they came to the bamboo
woods, where these human monkeys still
live, and the poor Dokos could not re-
sist the attractions offered by such su-
perior people. They crowded round
them and were taken in thousands. In
slavery they were docile, attached,
obedient, with few wants and excellent
health. These queer people have one
fault-a love for ants, mice and SER
pents and a speaking to Yer with their
heads on the ground and their heels in
the air. Yer is their idea of superior
power, to whom they talk in this COM
ical manner when they are dispirited or
angry or tired of ants and snakes and
longing for unknown ood.-Popuiaz

Centerboards For English Yachts.

1t seems not improbable that the
yexed question of the superiority of fixed
keel or centerboard for racing in Eng
hsh waters may be settled this season.
At any rate, it will be thoroughly test
ed in the 90 rating class, and the results
will be watched with much interest.
The form of the Dragon is so well known
that it will be somewhat easy to judge
whether the addition of centerboard
has improved her or the reverse, and as
the Thelme, which Mr.. Fife has de-
signed for Mr. Walker, is also to have
centerboard another opportunity will be
afforded of estimating whether or not
this class of boat is superior to the fixed
keel, which all English Yachtsman have
so long believed in London Telegraph.

Some Fssets -oncerning That LAUNDERING
but Picturesque Vehicfe


One would scarcely expect to find OK
carts made in this city, but they ars
made here by one mahafacturer as part
of a general wagon making business
The sale of OK carts in this country is
decreasing. Here the use of them has
always in large measure been confined
to the rough and hilly farms of the New
England and middle states, and even in
those states they are now giving way to
carts and wagons drawn by horses. Old
farmers brought up to use OK carts con-
tinue to use them, but their sons dosAot
The younger men buy not oxen. but
horses, not OK carts, but wagons and
horse carts. How much Of this change
is due to the fact that the stony, hilly
lands are now pretty well cleared and
that oxen are less needed for blowing,
how much is due to the spirit of the
age with its quicker moveEasnt in all
the fields of labor, how much to a great
er inclination toward luxury, it might
be difficult to say, but the on cart is
passing away. 1t is still used, however,
to some extent. 1t may be met perhaps
in the haying field, perhaps under the
spreading elms at the village black
smith s shop. The cart met amid such
surroundings is quite as likely to have
been made in the city as in the country,
for they are all substantially alike
The only important changes that have
been made in OK carts in many years
have been the substitution of iron for
wooden axles and the broadening of the
face of the wheel. All OK carts are now
built with iron axles and 4 inch tires.
New York city built OK carts are sold
in western Connecticut, in western
and in New York, and
occasionally in remoter parts of this
country. There is steady demand for
them from the planters of the West In
dies and of Central and South America
An OK cart costs about $100.-New
