backs where the raw material he
uses has been imported must also
be deducted from the foreign
price for his product. These are
the chief causes for the practice
Mr.. Babcock has condemned
without understanding and any
one of such reasons in particu-
lar case is ample, sound and
proper. 1t is advantageous to
the American people to keep the
mills running and to prevent a
surplus of production.

al in this field for the Babcocks
and the democrats.
Speaking of this phase of the
commissions report my depart
ment friend suggested that prices
always range higher in prosper
Gus times than in periods of
adversely and that at the same
time people have more money to
buy with. Dun's Review, a non-
partisan publication upon which
business men everywhere rely,
shows that the per capita cost of
living now is $25. 90 greater per
year in America than it was in
1897, when the country was at
its lowest ebb. But the average
of earnings is now very much
more than $500 greater than it
was then. The masses of the
people are not only buying more
per capita now than ever before
in the history of the country, but
they are also saving more, as is
shown by the banks. insurance
companies and building and loan
societies.
The important thing, he con-
tinued, is TO secure an ample in
come rather than to buy cheaply.
Work comes first, prices are
secondary. Keep the mills open
and the men employed, sell the
goods in the best markets first
but sell them, and the country
will make profit on the whole
transaction. The republican
policy is to provide work at good
wages; the democratic policy is
to get things cheap, without any
reference to the ability of the
people to buy. The experience
of the past decade vindicates the
republican idea.

PROSPECT OF TROUBLE
Agreed to Pension Mrs. McKin.
ley. but Rider for Mrs. harri'
son has Opposition-Reason
Comment and Gossip in the
Affair.

WASHINGTON, D. G. Nov. 26
Bills providing pensions of
S., 900 annually for the widows
of two presidents of the United
States are expected to be intro
duced in the senate on the first
day of congress. One, which
undoubtedly will be handled by
Senator Mark A. Hanna, pro-
vides for a pension for Mrs. Nc
Kinley. The other authorizes
the payment OF a pension to Mrs.
Benjamin Harrison. The action
of Mrs, HarrisOn's friends in
asking that she be paid pen
sion has been the cause of a
great deal of quiet comment and
criticism among those who have
learned of it.
There are some unusual feat
ureS to the case In the first
place Mrs. Harrison was not the
wife of a president, but of an eX-
president. She, it will be re-
membered, spent great deal of
time at the white house nursing
the first Mrs. Harrison and re-
lieving her of the social duties
of her position. After the death
of Mrs. Harrison Mrs. Dimmick
took charge of the executive
mansion, acting as a sort of
housekeeper for the president.
Mr.. Harrison and Mrs. Dimmick
were not married until the form
er's term of Office had expired.
ALI the wives of presidents who
drew pensions from the United
States actually served as mis-
tresses of the white house.
The friends of the measure
providing for Mrs. McKinley's
pension assert that the Harrison
pension bill is being attached to
that for Mrs. Mckinley for the
purpose of getting it through
congress without opposition.
There will be no objection to
Mrs. McKlnley's bill in either
house. Everyone seems to think
that it will not only be just but
proper for the country to thus
provide for the wife of the mur-
dered president. Mrs. Harrison,
on the other hand, they declare,
does not need the pension, as
Mr.. Harrison made her the chief
beneficiary of his estate, which
was ample to provide for her all
the rest of her life.
Reports come from Indiana
that the children of Mr.. Harrison
by his first wife will oppose the
granting of the pension. It is
said that Russell B. Harrison
has threatened to appear before
the senate committee on pensions
and inform that body that he
knew his father, if possible,
would disapprove of any such
move. Mr.. Harrison in his will
practically cut his children off,
leaving most of his money to his
wife. Their antagonism to the
proposed pension Is taken as a
renewal of the objections which
they made to Mrs. Dimmick be-
fore she married their father.
Inc matJer mas Oeen called to
the attention of the senate com
mlttee, of which Senator Calling
er is the chairman, and it is ex-
pected that the committee will
pass on the case before the bin
is introduced. It is possible in
case the committee decides un-
favorably on Mrs. Harrison's
claim to a pension that her
friends will withdraw the bill
before the committee has a
chance to officially recommend
an unfavorable report.

is. Lafayette himself is the feature of
the company. In fact, he would be the
feature of any company with which he
appeared for there is only one Lafayette,
and only one successful impersonatOr of
Sousa and Ching Ling Foo. This wonder
full artist has added much to the clever
ness of his contribution, and his stage
setting, designed and built by himself, is
the handSomeSt yet seen in Richmond.
The members of the company are clever
entertainers. James J. Morton has by no
means worn out his welcome here. Local
thcatre-goers are pleased to see him and
have him talk to them, for he is always
saying somthing Interesting and funny.
He tells fresh jokes and sings songs that
no one else does. Howard and Bland do
a good comedy skit, and howard does a
piano monologue that is very clever. Her
berts performing dogs made hit.
'Dink," the leader of the troupe, is a
great little actor. He can climb ladder
man fashion, faster than man, and he
isn't afraid to jump. DIANA slides from
the dome of the theatre to the stage by
her teeth, and the cake-walking cannes
draw laughter. Sharp and Flat contri-
