IninuifOna Lumber TariR.

"The proposed tariff on lumber" the
Poston Transcript (rep.) says, sis SIM
ply measure to pick the pockets and
crush the industry of large, useful
and influential class of American citi-
zens. 1t is uneconomic, unscientitic,
suicidal. The statements upon which
this schedule was made up are shown
to have been insidious. and misleading
The result will be to strip the country
not of an annually recurring income
but of its white pine principal. which
at present rates is within ten years of
exhaustion, and also to ruin a large
class of business men in this country
who deserve better things. 1t does not
seem possible that men claiming TO
represent the people viii permit such
a measure to have the force OF law. Ii
they do, it viii cease to be folly and be-
tome iniquity."

woMEN's DRESS GOODS.
VIII Come High When the DingAey
Tax IL Added.

Tax Is Added.
The extremely high duties which
Dingley proposes to collect from wom-
ems dress goods should be more gen.
orally understood by the women of this
country. 1t is they who must suffer
most because of these duties Here are
few samples of the increased duties
taken from list prepared by Mr.. P. B.
Worrall, of the dress goods importing
firm of Fred Butterfeld & Co., of New
York:
IA wool and cotton cloth costing in
England Is. per yard, equal to "a cents
in our money, weighing 16 ounces to
the running yard. costs under the pres
ent tariff 1876 cents per yard, while un-
der the proposed tariff it would cost
81 SIG cents per yard.
"a wool and cotton cloth costing in
England 2s. 4d. per yard, equal to Sc
cents in our money, weighing % ounces
to the running yard, and costing under
the present tariff 1874 cents per yard,
would under the proposed tariff cost
$1.4s5s per yard.
"An all worsted cloth, costing in
England IS. Id per yard. equal to so
cents in our money, weighing Ii ounces
to the running yard, and costing under
the present tariff 20 cents per yard.
would cost under the proposed tariff
$1.298 per yard.
"a 32-inch black serge Cotton warp,
costing in England SD. per yard,
equal in our money to 1925 cents, weigh
ing less than four ounces to the square
yard, costs under the present tariff
22.s7 cents per yard. Under the pro-
posed tariff it will cost 3O.O7 cents per
yard.
"A 27-inch black sicilienne cotton
warp, costing in England 77-sd. per
yard, equal to 1915 cents in our
money, weighing 81 ounces to the run
ming yard, costs under the present tariff

Now Just look at the farmers son
who went to Horns, the tailor, and
had a suit of clothes made to order
from his best imported goods. Did
YOU ever see such a fit? This is the
Way Horn turns out clothes.
This suit only costs SIS, yes, and If
YOU want suit for $40 out of some
other goods, Horn is the man to &C
commodate you.
This is no joke. Horns trousers
are made TO fit and guaranteed to give
entire satisfaction.
Spring over coats made by Horn will
su1pass any in the city.
No man is more popular in the
clothing business than Mr.. Horn. He
knows how to suit the taste of the peo-
pie and fit them in the bargain.
fyou want frst-clasS summer suit
made to order don't fail to go to
Horns 637 F street, n. W the most
prominent clothing house on F street
Every body who has been to Horns
is satisfied. No one has yet made any
complaint or found fault with the
house. He has Just received a first
class stock of goods for summer wear:
He is willing to give you trial and
guarantee to fit you better than any
house in the city. This is the reason
Horn is better known than any other
tailor in town. He knows how to sull
the ladies. :.
Whenever you can please the ladies,
YOU have made good hit. Horn Is
that man. He can suit any one.
Now tell us, how much you admire
this suit? How do you like the cuts
This is not circumstance of wha,
Horn can do.
The last time the parson got sui
of clothes at Horns he was made tc
look like gentleman.
The parson, like some few others
thought he could do better elsWhere
and now the last report is, he IS out

OUR HIGH SCHOOL CADETS.

In the High School on NJ street, en-
thusiasm is gradually rising to high
water mark, and it will burst all
bounds on Monday, May 24th, at the
National Base Ball Park, at P. M,
when the three rival companies ol
Cadets meet in competitive drill.
The Cadets have labored to bring
their drill as near perfection, as pos
sible, and any failures will be due more
to lack of time than to lack of effort.
AS many Of the Cadets are dependent
upon their own efforts for all education,
thev find it impossible to give to the
drill as much time as they would If un-
employed.
The captains are doing all in their
power to put up an excellent drill and
render the capture of the handsome
gold medal as difficult as possible
Each is confident that if the Cadets
responds on Monday as they do or
practice drills, he will win the medal
There is an extra amount of Interest
attached to the contest this year be-
cause it is the first appearance of the
panies on field.
Captain F. H. Burgess, of company
A has been ably assisted by his Lieu
tenants, Turner and Pollard. Com
pany has reached its present condi
ton through the skill of Captain A
NJ. Ray and Lieutenants Guy anC
Davis.
Captain J. w. White with Lieuten
ants Montgomery and Washington
have worked increasingly to make
Company C's drill a success in every
particular.
While the Judges are deciding upor
the fortunate company on the 24th
Ma; ;or c. K. Wormley with Adjutan
w. o. Davies and Sergeant MAJOR El
lis will hold dress parade and review
the battalion. After this the media
and red ribbons will be awarded to the
victors and the boys will march back
to the High School.
Prof. w. S. Montgomery has had oc.
CaSion to several times complimenteo
the Cadets upon their soldierly bear
ing and department, and they seem to
be thoroughly imbued with the idea
that the good name of the school O
the community and of the race rests
upon them.
Too much praise cannot to be giveI
to Captain Arthur Brooks for the
thorough instructions he has given the
Cadets, and we believe they will make
| this manifest on the 24th.

WHY Increase the Coal Dut,


Under the existing tariff bituminous
coal pays 40 cents ton. The Dingley
bill proposes to make this rs cents. In
1856 the imports of bituminous coal
into the United States were 1,243,S35
tons. The exports were 2,246.2s4. the
figures from Canada were: Imported
from Nova Scotia, New Brunswick. etc,
123,4O4 tons; from Quebec, Ontario,
ETC., 39,9s7; from British Columbia.
627,257; exports to these three divisions
respectively, Alb tons, 1,672.3O2 and
1904. Canada now proposes in case the
Dingley rate is imposed to retaliate by
a high duty on our coal, which will
certainly not stimulate exports. Here
is an export business worth twice as
much as the corresponding import busi-
ness, and it is proposed to run the risk
of running the former for the sake of
screwing $35O,000 taxes out of the lat
ter, and this on the plea of reviving
American industry. Can any sane man
fail to see that, even assuming that
imports do not fall off, it is hardly
worth while for the sake of paltry
s350.00O to tempt Canada into running
an established business nearly twice as
large as that which is to yield the tax
Yet this is the way in which "the old
thing works."
