FORCED ON THEM
Business Men of Chicago All
Become Tariff Advocates.
Regard a Higher Tariff a Lesser
Evil
THAN GOLD BONDS
Which Must Be Issued Every
Few Months.
The. National Revenue Must Be
Increased Somehow
And a Higher Tariff the Quick
est Remedy.

CHICAGO, Dec. 24-The Times Her
aid this morning says: Chicago men are
almost unanimous that the only way to
pay the debts of the nation is to in
crease the duties on imports. They were
pleased at the prompt action of congress,
in responding TO the appeal of the pres
ident to relieve the treasury by another
issue of gold bonds, because they felt
that the issue was necessary to meet
present contingencies.
1t was considered that this ought to be
tbs final issue of bonds, as higher i'm
port duties would provide the govern
ment with sufficient funds in the future,
and then the gold reserve would remain
intact. Some of the business men of this
city think the tariff cannot be made too
high in order to yield a handsome reve-
nue. to the government.
Secretary Carlisle's statement, that the
present tariff is sufficient to support the
government, is disputed by one, on the
ground that the administration is COM
PEELED to keep the gold reserve intact by
issue after issue of bonds. Everywhere
it is recognized that more revenue is
needed to carry on the business of
the nation without appealing to
foreigners to buy government bonds.
The increase of international
ImpOSts is not favored though some
would like to see stamp tax and others
tax on beer. The needed revenues
had come from imports, particularly
luxuries SO that the burden would be
equally distributed.
The. United States exports food pro-
ducts, while most of the imports might
be classed as luxuries
In the interviews obtained by the

PORTRAITS ON LEATHER.
Introduction Into This Country of
New Species of Art Work.

Introduction Into This Country of q
New Species of Art Work.
A few months ago Miss Christina
Hetz arrived in Milwaukee from Nun
ich, and introduced in the cream city
a species of decorative work which had
hitherto been practically unknown
there. Miss Hetz is an artist from the
crown of her head to the soles of her
feet, an all-around artist, too, knowing
howjto paint beautiful modern things in
oils and water colers as well as to re-
produce in many fabrics the rare and
costly relics of early German art work.
She is as skillful with her needle as
with her brush, as clever with the
sharp tools of the woodcarver's outfit
as she is with the little knives and
queer instruments with which she cuts
leather into intricate patterns, but most
of all does she do wonderful pyro-
graphic work on wood and leather, US
ing, in marvellous way, the red-hot
point of little iron needle to bring out
! light and shade. So far Miss Hetz has
not put much of her work on exhibition,
| although she had several water colors
hung at the exposition art gallery and
few pieces of burnt wood and leather
work have been shown in art stores,
but many have had private inspection
of her work. Notable among the pieces
which she has is head of Rembrandt
done in wood and framed in fiat
wooden frame, the picture and the
decoration of the frame being done with
| the red-hot needle, the whole being in
soft delicate shades of brown like an
etching by the master himself. An
| other larger piece OF work is wooden
chest covered with topographic orna-
mentation, with the top of leather SINH
larly treated. Combining the illumi-
mated and topographic work, Miss Hetz
has made some beautiful cushion COW
ers, chair backs and smaller pieces, the
brilliant gliding and bright colors
| showing effectively on the rich brown
back ground of the decorated leather.
This particular form of work is having
a great run in New York and Miss Hetz
| has received a number of commissions.
| The old Swedish work on wood and
leather consists of geometrical designs
! in colors combined with scroll work in
| pyrogravure. The effect seems stiff at
| first, but grows upon the eye and
pleases by its simplicity of color and
| AOrm. ne cut leaLDer NcFh COnS1SIS "
raised patterns in dark leather, and fs
especially suited for book bindings.
chair backs and cushions. The work is
initiated by machinery to consider
able extent in these degenerate days,
but there is not the grace nor beauty
in the machine work that is found in
| the labor by hand. Miss Hetz received
her training in all taese branches of
decorative art work in the Munich
schools and she has studied in the gal
| leries and museums abroad, many of
her patterns being exact copies of rare
old articles in the national museum at
Munich and the Germanic museum in
Nuremberg. Antique French tapes
tries also furnish her with suggestions.
while many of her patterns are orig
| nal.

received an offer of the editorship of

defeat in New York was not a disap-
pointment to me. The socialistic lines
were closely drawn in the convention,
and although l never was connected
with any socialistic organization, it was
made to appear that l represented the
socialist idea. l am socialist in this,
that l believe in municipalities taking
the control of all the corporations that
are now operated under charters obtained
from the cities.
Government ownership and municipal
ownership will come, and the conduct of
government and municipal corporations
toward their men is doing more to
hasten this condition than anything else. "

MAYER WITH THE SOUTHERN.

Topeka's Favorite Pitcher viii Play With
Galveston the Coming Season.
Philip Mayer has signed with the Gal
veston, Tex, base ball team of the South
ern league for next season. He will play
in the outfield until hot weather sets in,
when he will go into the box if his arm
rounds to.
The big catcher and second baseman,
Chiles, who played some with Troy last
season, is a member of the Galveston
team, and has been reserved for next sea-
son.
Mayer depends on his hitting to keep
him in the Galveston nine until he can
go into the box. He lead his team in
the Iowa league in hitting last season.
