Charles NJ. Schwab, president Of the
steel trust, on returning from Europe
brought three costly diamonds as a
present to his wife. They were cut
diamonds and valued at SIT 800, but the
steel magnate forgot to report the case
to the custom house authorities, and
had to have his memory logged on the
subject. He promptly cashed down
s1,T50, as there is ten per cent duty on
cut diamonds. The duty on set dia-
mOnds is 60 per cent, but raw diamonds
are on the free list. He should have
brought them over raw and had them

Harris ON shin subsidy.

Senator Harris, Of Kansas, in an ar
ticIe in Golfers Weekly, points out
fatal defect in the Frye skip subsidy
bill The great bulk Of the subsidy,
says Senator Harris, goes to the fast
passenger boats and leaves little for
the freighters. That fact alone ought
to condemn the bill. The ocean liners
need no further subsidy. One line,
SAYS the senator, which IS now receiV-
ing from the government five per cent
interest on its capital for carrying the
mails, would, under this bill, get g.
100000 annually. All the service it
would render in return would be In
case of war, surrendering its vessels for
the use of the government, at a good
price. Senator Harris also traces the
history Of subsidies and their failures.
However, the ship subsidy bill ought
to fail on general principles There Is
a great deal Of nonsense written about
the restoration of our merchant ma
rine." Our merchant marine viii be
restored as soon as it pays to restore it.

is largely matter Of sentiment, this
talk Of - restoration Of our flag to

does our ocean drayage so long as it IS
done at price lower than our own PEG

As a matter of fact our merchant
marine is doing very well without sub
sides. Our ship yards are busy day
and night. We are also building ships
for other countries as well as shipping
large quantities of shipbuilding ma
teriaI abroad. What matters much who
does the draying so long as we sell the
drays and material for them?

GOOD WORDS FOR MILES.
Both Army and Navy Newspapers Score
Secretary Root for His Severe
Reprimand.

Washington.-The Army and Navy
Register and the Army and Navy Journal
both take sides with Lieut.. Gen. Miles in
discussing the reprimsnd administered
him by Secretary Root at the behest Of
President Roosevelt. The Journal says:
According TO the army regulations a
reprimand such as was administered 70
the lieutenant general can only be admin
istered on the verdict Of a court martial.
Even a non commissiOnedO officer Is under
the protection Of the regulations, which
direct oficers to be cautious IN reProving
him in the presence or hearing Of private
soldiers. Is it not incumbent that at
least equal consideration should be
shown to the officer commanding"
The Register says: 'The impression
prevails that the tone of the Root letter
is unnecessarily seTere-all out Of pro
portion to the offense. There are even
those who think the language employed
is brutal and that the publicity given

FROnI MAINE 10 IOWA.


The inevitable has happened When
Gov. Shaw, Of Iowa, takes his place as
secretary Of the treasury, the Hawkeye
state viii occupy a position in the af-
fairs Of the nation that viii be unex-
ampled. Iowa's influence will be great
er than that Of Maine when Blaine was
secretary Of state, Reed speaker of the
house, Frye and Hall leaders in the
senate and Dingley, Bontelle and Mil
hken we're chairmen Of important com
mittees in the house Of representatives
IOwa's influence can only be com
pared to that Of New York during the
first administration of Cleveland when
the Empire state had Manning and
Fairchild at the head of the treasury
department and Whitney as secretary
of the navy. Yet Iowa stands a good
chance Of outstripping New York in its
Influence in national affairs. Here is
She list:
Leslie n. Shaw, secretary of the
treasury; James Wilson, bureau of az
riculture; David B. Henderson, speaker
Of the house; William B. Allison, chair
man senate committee on apprOpria-
tions;J. P. Dolliver, chairman of sen
ate committee on Pacific railroads; W.
P. Hepburn, chairman of house com
merce; J. a. T. Hull, chairman on
house committee on military affairs;
]. F. Lacey, chairman of house com
mittee on public lands; R. G. Cousins
chairman Of house committee on ex-
pend1tUres Of treasury department;
George E. Roberts, director of mints;
N. D. O'ConneII, solicitor Of the treas
ury; James D. Metcalf, post office
money order department; Andrew
Geddes, chief clerk, agricultural de
partment; G. B. Bracket, pomOlogist
agricultural department; James D.
Yeomans, interstate commerce com
mission; W. N. Beardshear, Indian
commissioner; Emery F. Sperry, United
States pension commissioner.
Is there anything else that Iowa
wantsf IF there is, "Iet her now speak
or else forever hereafter hold her
peace" Of the above list of course
Shaw, Henderson, Wilson and Allison
will have the greatest influence and
may be called 'Iowa's big four" Iowa's
prominence in national affairs is a
sign Of the times that the center of
political power as well as the center of
population is moving westward. 1t is
healthful sign, and the day is coming
when the effete. east will yield its pow
er to the progressive west.
westward the star of empire takes
its way"

TENTION.
The peoples party state central com
mittee met in Topeka last Saturday for
conference as TO what is best to be
done in view Of the changed conditions
which have been forced upon the PEG
pie Of the state by the republican anti
fusion law.
At this conference the committee
very properly decided that it had no
authority to decide the question of
going into the democratic party, as
some advised and could not in honor
attempt to dissolve the organization Of
the peoples party, and in fact had no
power to disband as a state central
committee.
It was finally decided to call a state
delegate conference for February 81, to
take action on this question of state
organization, and as to what action
should be taken by the peoples party
in the state campaign of 1902. A state
call for this convention viii be made
soon and viii be published IN time to
call township caucusses and a county
convention to elect delegates.

Marriage Among Australian Savages

chronological experts agree that with
most Australian tribes every woman
is betrothed in infancy, or even in an
ticipation of her birth. According to
some mysterious law Of their own
this Is arranged by the old men Of
the family, the women having no
voice in the matter. The age of the
proposed husband is not taken into
consideration, so that 1t frequently
happens by the time the girl is Of
a manageable age her intended is an
old man. If in the meantime some
younger man has set his heart upon
her this means a fight, in which the
unfortunate bride-to-be, as she is
dragged away, Is certain to come in
for q share Of the blows which the
rival suitors deal out to each other.
In some Of the coast districts, where
not all the girls are promised in in
fancy, the betrothal of young wom-
an to man who follows the occupa-
ton of a fisherman compels her to
lose the first joint of the little finger
of her left hand. This slow and pain
full operation is performed by a stout
string bound tightly around the joint

would willingly dispense! A mar

Then he reaches the age where no

Rinehart was @ born "cut up" He

violent rocking, at the same time roar

capsized, and all were rescued with the
