For dear revenge drew ever nearer me;
With look dcmure he me beguiled
Till all my pulses beat exutantly.
Deep in my heart made refuge fair,
And earnestly invited him to rest;
With downcast eyes, the boy took shelter
there,
Then wickedly chased peace from out my
breast
He folded down his wings like any tender
dove,
Then straightway sent his arrows thick and
hot;
Oh, Happy day when could laugh ut Love!

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-The joint select
ronmittcc of congress, created at the last
session for the purpose of investigating the
subject of freeing from taxation alcohol in
the manufactures and arts, will meet in
the rooms of the committee on finance of
the senate on Monday, Nov. %, for the
purpose of hearing any parties interested
in the matter who may desire to submit
their views. The question is one of great
interest to persons interested i'll the manu-
facture of hats, furniture, patent medi-
cines, compounds, perfumery and other
articles, and the committee is very desir
Gus that the many and important indus
tries of the country which would be bene-
fitted or injured by the use of alcohol free
of tax shall present their views to the com
mittee in order that it may intelligently
report to congress at the coming session.
The committee is composed of the fol
lowing members: Senators Plntt, chair
man; Aldrich and James X. Jones and
Representatives Evans, Russell and Nc
Millin.
A series of interrkatories have been
sent to leading firms throughout the coun-

subject of the inquiry, and it is expected IL
number of these will have representatives
present to state how they would be affected
by the removal of the tax, so far us 1t affects

NO TARIFF THIS YEAR

GIVES HIS VIEWS.
Tells Why Neither Tariff Nor Currency
Bills VIII Pass Congress This Winter.
Says That Revenue Is the All Impor-
tant consideration.

PROVIDENCE. Nov. 1S.-Senator Nelson
", Aldrch, who is regarded as one of the
highest Republican authorities on the
tariff in the United States senate fur
nishcs signed statement to New York
paper in which he says:
In my Judgment it will hardly be posi-
BILE to secure the adoption of any satisfac-
tory financial or revenue legislation at the
approaching second session of the Fifty
fourth congress. My reasons are these:
First.-With free silver majority in
the senate it must be evident that no RENE
dial financial legislation that would salts
fy the advocates of sound money can be
adopted
SccOnd.-ln the senate of 80 members
there are 80 Democrats, 6 Populists and
bhe q silver senators who supported Mr.
| Bryan-or 81 senators in all who have
been, and are likely to be- with u very few
possible exceptions, opposed to the Dingley
bill or TO any reYtnue legislation that
would have the approval of the 80 Repub
lican senators.
The possibility of securing an adjust
ment of the differences between senators
on this question is so remote that believe
it may be safely assumed that any attempt
! to pass u tariff or revenue bill, or even to
enter upon it's serious consideration at
this season would be unsuccessful
In this connection it should be remem-
bered that the session will contain barely
30 working days, and that the consdera-
sion of the appropriation and other neceS-
tary bills will absorb every available day
Most Important Topics.
The question of the precise character of
the legislation on these two great subjects
that should be adopted vt the first session
Of the Fifty-ffth congress is by far the
most important one with which the mem
bcrs of that congress will have to deal
The future of the Republican party may
depend largely upon the measure of wis
dom shown by the responsible majority in
its treatment of this question. The details
of party policy in this respect can only be
decided upon and announced after the
most careful consideration and fullest CON
! sultation.
In the meantime in general way the
obligations and purposes of the party are
! fully understood.
1t should not be forgotten by those sup
porters of the president elect who have
heretofore differed from us on the tariff
question that Republicans are protection
lists by the explicit pledges of platform and
candidates and by the traditional policy of
the party, and as such are bound by every
consideration of fidelity to the American
people to apply their principles to any
changes which may be made in revenue
laws.
No amendments to our tariff laws, how
ever, should be made unless necessary to
cure defects or to provide the requisite
| revenue.
The task of amendments should be en-
tered upon in II spirit Of true conservatism
and with II determination to make the
needed changes as soon as possible and in
u manner which will create the least dis
turbance to business interests.

merits which go to the making Of a

Is put into one morning, and-after an
interval of five years-an afternoon

acts and as it stands is a dramatic
masterpiece. The story may be told
In few words. The wife of Tony

she eXacts from him a promise not to

child and contrives to throw suspicion
upon the girl Tony loves, in order to
make their marriage forever an i'm
possibility. For the rest Of the tale,
the reader must go to the book it
self. He will not be sorry if he does
so. 1t will be found full of power ana
interest, sufficiently thrilling to give d
sensation to one hardened by the liter
AZURE Of horrors, and yet, lacking In
none of Mr.. James customary sub
tleties of insight and felicity of phase
The combination of Mr.. James style
and an exciting theme is in itself a
nine days wonder. That the combina-
ton should prove such an obvious sue
cess will, perhaps, surprise those who
have been accustomed to measure Mr..
James power by his restrained and
quiet performances. 1t has not here
tcfore seemed likely that he would
choose to write a novel upon the lines

has done so, it must be admitted that
the book holds the reader rapt and
breathless from the start Weyman,
Doyle & Co., can do no more in this
direction, While in all other respects
they inevitably fall far short of the
perfection James achieves. Possibly
the appearance of the book presages .,
new departure in literature. If the
public must have excitement WHY
should 1t not be furnished by the mas
ters of the art of literary expression?
III might well happen under such cir
cumstances that the public would pass

The Minnesota State Federation of

fourteenth semi-annuaI session. and
over 100 delegates, representing affiIiat-

OF the state will be in attendance. Pres

ganized workers of this city, and
Mayor Doran will do similar honors for
the municipality. The convention will
remain in session today only, and, as
there is vast amount of work in pros

of the state legislature, the whole day
will be devoted to hard work.
Several organizations are DESTROYS of

next session of the states lawmakers.
which they hope will be effective in
remedying the evils that thraten the
welfare of the workers in the industries
that they represent, and they will all
seek the federation's Endorsement and
assistance in bringing about the de-

The BARRIERS, whose domain has been
trespassed upon to a considerable ex-
tent in some places by the product of
the so-called barber schools, have pre-
pared bill which stipulates that any
person desiring to adopt the tonsorial
profession must first pass an examina-
ton fnquiring into his fitness for and
knowledge Of such calling and secure a
certificate or license from the state al
lowing him to practice it. The plumb
ers and norseshoers have similar OBJ
jects in view. The broom makers would
like to put a complete stop to the
manufacture of brooms In prisons In
this state, and their bill is also pre-
pared and ready to be introduced. Quite
a material change would be effected
in the state penitentiary if the desires
of the boot and shoe workers unions
were to be acquiesced in by the legis-
lature. These workers claim that an
injustice is done them by employing so
large a number of convicts at one in
dustry, and their suggestion is that, if
the contract system must obtain. more
industries should be introduced into
the institution, thus making the shoe
workers burden lighter.iah
