therefore he threw up his commission

says Leslie's Weekly. The explanation
given is that the demands upon the
hospitality Of the Governor General
are SO great that $4,000 a year fails
to pay the bills, and as Lord Hopetoun
did not feel like eklng out the balance
from his own income, he surrendered

THO Housel,ecDcr Knows,

The good wife never before found it
so hard to supply the household needs
from her husbands earnings. She can
not keep the dinner pail full, and her
heart sinks when she looks Mt the
empty coal bucket and realizes that
winter is near.
The wife of the business man finds
that her weekly allowance will not pro.
vide as good Il table rs heretofore, and
she is troubled because she does not
understand the cause of her financial
stringency and dislikes to ask her hus-
band to increase the allowance which
has sufliccd for years before.

Chinese and Labor.

Prof. jerks, who was sent as special
commissioner of the War Department
to the Philippines, in his report to Sec
rotary Root, recommends that employ
ers of labor be permitted to introduce
Chinese laborers into these islands. The
exploiters who have their grip on the
Philippines are not content with the
thousands of Chinese already there and
the millions of Filipinos, who are near
ly all laborers, but are crying for more
cheap labor. Secretary Root will no
doubt oblige them. and thus open the

If all Republicans cannot be brought tc

If all Republicans cannot be brought to
think the steel trust is Il bad trust, a
small minority that do so believe will
find the Democrats quite willing to vote
with them to abolish or reduce the steel
and iron schedule.
The boraX trust has been proved by
yindisputable evidence to be one of the
most rapacious trusts, charging three
times as much for its products here as
abroad. This should entitle it to be
classed among the bad trusts and the
tariff law amended accordingly.
The list of bad trusts might be eS-
tended into hundreds. and number
cited who are selling cheaper abroad
than here, but the few above described
should at once receive the attention of
Congress and their protection be re-
moved.
The Republicans have been declaring
from every stump that they will re-
form the tariff, so that the trusts shall
not continue to rob the people by charg-
ing them excessive prices for trust pro-
auctions. They also said that the tar
