Submarine Hpnts,

Germany a-pears to have decided
altogether against the submarine boat.
Recently Geheimeath Burley, at a ma
val meeting held in Charlottenburg,
spoke with disdain of submarine boats,
and averred that the German navy
had nothing to fear from anything OF
this kind which might be built by for
cign powers. AS to Russia, 1t Is not
known what she is doing, or whether
she is doing anything at all in the
matter of submarine navigation.
Spain is thinking only of how she can
reduce her naval expenses, and is very
far indeed from the epoch when she
hoped so much from the submarine
vessels which had been invented by
Lieut.. Peral. Whether it was because
her performance fell below what had
been expected. or because her inventor
was not allowed to go on with his
attempt, the Peral has been laid up
for two years in a Spanish arsenal.

HIGHPRICE OFPAPER.
TARIFF TAX ON WOOD PULP A
COSTLY ONE.
May Compel Subscribers To Fay More
for Their Couatry Newspaper - The
Cry for a.. IH.tsnt h.p-si h Very
Lsud-rspsr trust Robbery.

There are very conclusive reasons
why the present taTln tax on wood
pulp and printing paper should be re-
peaied. and there Is no reason in the
interest OF AmeElraS Industry that
pleads for the continuance OF these
taxes. They are now simply an sle-
meat OF robbery under color OF law.
and they should be efaced from our
statutes.
The paper trust Is now taxing the
newspaper and book publishers OF the
country many millions, not because OF
any such actual Increase in the cost OF
producing paper. but because the trust
has the power TO cXiogI from the puT-
chassFs o! paper up to the "xten; that
would make IaT.H-iaIei foreign paper
and pulp cheaper than the prices de-
inaHdc,l here. This trust has played It's
scheme OF extoEtIos to the utieEmosi.
and congress should at once remove
the tax that protects no American IN
dustry and that has become only an
agent TO rob the consumers.
TWo.,hlrls of the wood pulp used In
the manufacture OF paper for American
consumption should come from Can
ada. bat Il Is excluded by tariff tax.
and Wo are now rushing hcadlons In
the destruction OF our forests. while
Canada. with It's almost llml;lcss sup
ply OF timber. cannot reach our mar
kcts because OF the tax Imposed by
che tnTIn.
The two conclusive reasons which
should make congress act promptly are
-nr5t. that the paper trust should be
at once halted in its rapid destruction
OF our American forests by the admiH-
alon OF free wood pulp from Canada:
and. second. that the present cStori!on
pract,ccd by the paper trust upon pub
fishers OF newspapers and books shat!
cease to have the protection OF the gov
ernmcnt.
The time has come when any trust
that makes arbitrary profits by tariff
duties must cease to be protected by
the government. Where American In
duEtry needs protection II Is reason
able to permit II. but where alleged
protection 10 used only for systematic
robbery, Il must be oyCFihrown.
We can now manufacture paper as
chclply as any country in the world.
There ia no cxruEc whatever for n tax
upon the manufactured articles. and
the raw material should be free. not
only because the general principle is
correct. but because II It shall not be
done promptly our forests will be prac-
tIcnIly destroyed within few years by
tariff taxes excluding the lumber OF
Canada from our markets.
Paper and pulp must be made free
of all taxes. AS the paper trust has dem
ongtrI-cd that these taxes serve only a
single purposc-that Is to invite rob-
berry under color OF llw.-Philadelphia

incident not long ago about II. Some
chap had come from the Aissippi val
ley to take up his residence at What

are very high tides. When the boat
landed him at the end OF the long pier
extending over the tide flats the water
was low and the new man didn't notice
anything but wide stretch OF sand
between the boat and the town. 1t
was in the evening about dark and was
raining. and he went to the hotel on
the front street and stayed there. going
TO bed without having gone out for n
walk. The next morning when he got

the water coming up close to the hotel.
He gazcd at the widespread waters for
an instant. and, throwing up his hands

A parson who occasionally breaches

"Oh. dear me-" exclaimed the old lady;
"help me down again, il you please;
I'd rather listen to the groaning and

New Method of Lighting Tunnels.

A new method of lighting tunnels is
about to be adopted in one constructed
in Paris for an electric road. Electric
lamps will be turned on automatically
as the train enters the tunnel and cut
off automatically as it emerges. The
lights are arranged on each side on a
level with the windows of the cars, so
that during daytime it will not be nee
essarry to turn on the light in the
cars. This mode has been devised by
Il French inventor. and doubtless will
