VOORHEES, ON FREE WOOL.
Sound Reasons Why the Tariff Should
Be Taken OF.

WASHINGTON. April 27.-The adyo-
Gates for duty on wool were hopeful
of accomplishing something in that
direction as long as the Democratic
Senators were not united in support
of the tariff bill, but their hopes have
been much dampened by the compro.
mise which has been virtually arraDg
ed by the Democrats Senator Voor.
hees has written q letter on the free
wool question to d Chicago friend in
which he says:
1t is my understanding that very
few carpet woods are produced IN this
country, and that they aggregate over
three-fourths of all the wool import.
ed. If this be true, then as to carpet
woods there could be no disadvantage
and must be a certain advantage to
carpet manufacturers Of the country
and the consumers Of their goods In
free wool.
Second, l am further advised that
the largest proportion of fine woods
imported to this country are woods
which cannot be produced here, owing
to climatic conditions, and that they
are essential to the manufacture in the
production of fine fabrics. If this be
true, they should also be admitted
free Of duty. This would leave but a
small proportion Of import IN woods
which compete at the present time
with domestic woods.
1t is also manifest to me that the
failure of our wool growers to realize
a profit on wool is almost entirely due
to overproduction, both in this coun-
try and other wool producing coun-
tries of the world. | haye no doubt
that in the year following the passage
of a free wool tariff bill the price of
domestic wool would advance unless
the great oyerproduction in various
other countries should continue to in
crease. 1t is manifestly absurd to
suppose that the II cents duty on

Units Them for Life.

The cigarette and cigarette smoker
is given black eye by DR.. Jordon,
president of Stanford University, in
the following language:
Gas a college teacher my experience
with boys vino have formed the cigar
cite habit is limited. 1t however con-
firms me in the opinion that all such
boys are like wormy apples, they drop
long before the harvest time. Very
few of them advance far enough to
enter college. Very few of those who
enter last beyond the first year. They
rarely make failures in after life be-
cause they do not have any life. The
boy who begins cigarette smoking be
fore he is fifteen never enters the life
of the world. When others are taking
hold of the worlds work he is con-
cerned with the sexton and the under
taker There is one grim argument
to be made for the use of cigarette
smoking by boys: it helps on the sur
yival of the fittest. The manly boy
does not smoke cigarettes. He has
life in him, plays foot ball, steals
watermelons, hunts ducks-does any
thing but deadens himself with mar
,cotics'

found very satisfactory plan Such
mee+ings are held in the forenoon or
shortly after lunch, when they viii not
conflict with customary social duties
Women can more readily come at such
times. OF course 1t is out of the ques-
ton for men to attend.
When masculine interest is to be en-
Listed in cause. meetings must be held
in the evening. Even then they usually
assume more of the form Of a social
function than they do of political gath
ering such as men are accustomed to If
their interest is excited, it is due more
to a spirit of gallantry than to convic-
ton.
While these social political functions
may have their place, it is highly prob
able that more would be accomplished
if women would 60 to meetings of men
rather than by longer continuing to try
20 get men to attend meetings Of women.
Before a thing can be elevated it must
be understood, and men by actual prac-
tice and participation know more of
public matters than their sisters. Their
gatherings, then, IN limited way are
founts Of political knowledge.
If women would but attend public
meetings as spectators, their elevating
influence would be felt to a surprising
extent. Men would find themselves
working in purer atmosphere. and
there would be less chance Of their prin-
ciples becoming befogged by self inter
est This in itself would be an accom-
pIishment worth effort. Furthermore,
if women thus made ocular demonstra-
ton of their intelligent interest in po-
Htical matters. men would sooner under
stand and consider the question Of equal
suffrage.
As long as women flock by themselves
they can exert little influence over af-
fairs of state. It may be remarked that
men, almost without exception, would
welcome women at their political gath
erings Kate Fields Washington.
