NORTH PARK REPUBLICANS.


Out at the corner of Illinois and Twenty
second streets is the home of the North
Park Republican Club, and although the
night was a scorcheT, and the room was
like an oven, it was packed to the doors
with enthusiastic Republicans. The cause
of all the jam was the announcement that
Charles L. Henry and John L. Grifiths
would speak in the room last night. The
crowd gathered early, and long before S
O'Clock the room was filled and those pres
ent vainly sought to coax a breeze through
the open windows or create an artificial
zephyr by the vigorous tanning of hats,
papers or anything else available that could
for the time be utilized as a fan.
Mr.. Henry was the first speaker. He was
introduced by j. G. Mcdowell, president Of
the club, with a few Introductory remarks.
Mr.. Henry was argumentative and logical
and presented the tariff issue in a plain
and forcible manner Under his affable
handling the supposed intricacies and mys-
teries of the tariff problem rapidly disap-
legislation was laid before the auditors
as simple as a problem in addition. Natur-
ally in a discussion of the tariff, the wage
question came in for more or less consid-
Grafton, and Mr.. Henry again, as he has
always done. put himself on record as
fayorfng American wages for American
WI hiiiS lucn, anu dS OppOSCu W the TtQuc-
ton of them TO the European standard for
the simple purpose of securing a Demo-
cratic tariff for revenue only. He was un-
alterably opposed to any tariff legislation
that did not have in view the protection Of
American Industries and American wages.
In the course of his remarks he referred to
the tariff legislation regarding sugar, and
compared the principles OF the two parties
in reference to this commodity. He also

the conclusion OF his speech was roundly
applauded for several minutes.
John l. GriffithS made an unusually forcl-
bic address. He compared the histories Of

lican party or its predecessors had always
been the party to which the people had
looked for relief in time Of emergencies.

Republicans May Secure Concessions
in the Wooden Schedule.

Republicans May Secure COncessions
in the Wooden Schedule.
WASHINGTON. June 13.-When the Sem
ate adjourned tonight an attempt was
made to secure an agreement to the five
minute rule on the wooden schedule, but
this was refused because several Senators
desired 10 make more EXTENDED speeches.
Senator Harris did not press the subject
of a night session because the Democrats
still hoped that an agreement might be had
to put through the wooden schedule just as
the Gotten schedule was adopted. The Re-
publican Senators have asked that certain
increases be made all along the line of
wooden schedules. The requests have been
rejected in part. but certain concessions
have been offered which may be accepted,
and tie indications are very strong that
they will be made on some of the para
graphs at least. including those providing
for a duty on women's and children's dress
goods, coat Innings. Italian cloth and bunt-
ing, on ready-made clothing and on wool
and worsted yarns. The probabilities are
that on women's and children's goods and
other articles included In the same para
graph the dividing line will be changed from
81 10 90 cents. and made to read so that
goods of this class valued at not over 60
cents shall Fay a duty of 80 per cent. ad
see Vi w. dS III II present
law.
In the paragraph relating to ready-made
clothing the present bill provides a uniform
al yalorem rate OF 10 per cent. II is pro
posed TO increase this rate TO 80 per cent. on
these goods where they are valued az more
chan S.5O per pound, leaving the rate at s5
per cent. on goods OF this class Of less
value. y similar change is 10 be made on
wooden and worsted yarns. on which. as
the bill stands. an ad valorem duty of so
per cent. is provided. AS the paragraph
will be changed. IL will probably Increase
the duty on goods of this class valued at
more than 40 cents per pound TO 40 per cent.
ad yalorem, leaving those OF less value at
80 per cent.
These changes have been advocated by
a large number OF manufacturers who. now
have a delegation here. consisting of Messrs.
Stanton. Owens and Bramhall, and while
the has not absolutely decided
upon making them, all the indications are
that they Will be. Senator Aldrich is press
ing very hard for a still greater change,
especially on women and children's dress
goods. He is asking that in this schedule
the dividend line be made at 40 cents, and
that the rate on goods worth less than 40
cents per pound shall be placed at As per
cent. and above at 80 per cent.
Senator Vest to-day gave notice OF an
amendment to the income tax section OF the
tariff bill. which would exempt from opera
lions OF the tax all fraternal and benevo-
lent organizations. He said he believed the
bill as 1t now stood would do thlt. but in

Ladies who are afraid to behold the

very numerous in St. Louis, says a
local paper. An instance is given OF
one lady who looked at the new moon
over her left shoulder before she
thought Of what she was doing, aud
two days later her husband lost his
position and was out of work for six
months, which, Of course, was directly
due to her carelessness. Another St.

thus securing good luck in monetary
affairs as long as the moon lasts. 9th

for them all together to pay the old

agreed, and in less than an hour they
were speeding that way.
A fast ride soon brought them to the

the old anvil had rang out, but it was

fire was there, as in days Of yore.
The old clock had ceased its ticking.
There were no walnuts upon the

but one barked from the old shop and
the brothers hastened there.
