The Tariff.

An IriShman who was growing g
calf of immense size for its age, was
asked how he did it. His reply was
that sit sucked two cows" That was
protection to the calf. We have gone
on protecting the various calves that
have bawled for more milk, until the
ssprotected infants" now suck the
entire herd. The beet sugar calf now
wants anopportunity to suck the herd.
The attorney OF the beet sugar indus
try in an elaborate argument and re-
port before congressional committee
shows that sugar can be grown in
Cuba and imported into the United
States at one and a half cents per
pound protitably. If that is true the
people of Iowa can obtain their sugar
cheaper by growing corn and feeding
it to hogs, cattle, horses and poultry,
and exchange the proceeds as needed
for sugar. It. is better than to foster
the beet industry at public expense by
paying tribute to the beetsugar trust.
A tariff for revenue is necessary to
meet the government expenditures,
but not to establish an industry that
can only live by exacling for an article
more than its worth. With suitable
government encouragement" Iowa
might grow bananas and oranges sui.

tits better to produce something
adapted to our soil and climate and

Merger" overrules the Supreme
Court.

The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion squarely confesses that the main
purpose for which it was created has
been wholly frustrated. In its an
nual report, just sent to congress, 1T
declares:
l. That the meat-packing combi-
nation has secured by secret concess-
ions from the roads special rates both
east and west of Chicago, and has
thereby destroyed its small competi-
tors.
2. That the larger exporters of
wheat and flour have obtained by
like secret concessions special freight
rates, which operate to exclude from
business the small operator.
After remarking that these in
stances afford s'a pregnant illustration
of the manner in which secret rate
concessions are tending to build up
great trusts and monopolies at the ex-
pense of the independent operator, "
the commission declares that such
secret concessions are made by the
Central freight Association "mer-
ger" of the roads by which traffic
from Chicago to the seaboard is car
ried. And it adds these perfectly
true and most significant sentences:
What is done in this section by this
association is accomplished in other
sections by other associations. 1t is
not the business of this commission to
enforce the Antitrust act, and we
express no opinion as to the legality
of the means adopted by these asso-
Citations. We simply call attention TO
the fact that the decisions of the Uni
ted States Supreme Court in the

citation cases have produced no practi-
cal effect upon the railway operations
of the country. Such associations in
fact exist now as they did before those
decisions, and with the same general
effect.
This is a statement of facts that
challenges the attention of all thought.

the United States is shown TO be no

Some Interesting Figures on
Water Rents to Be Pre-.
scented Council
MUST PAY UP OR LOSE WATER
City Clerk Eeermayer Compiling Re.
port on Delinquents to Be Furnished
the counciI-Many Patrons Using
Water That Is Not Accounted for on
city's Books.

There premise to be some interesting
figures presented to the city council at
its next regular meeting by Clerk Eyer
mayer regarding delinquent water tax
es. Mr. N. NJ. Choate, who for the past
few weeks has been assisting Street
Commissioner Ordway In collecting de-
linquent poll taxes, has been employed
by the city to make a house to house
canvass of all the users of city water to
determine who are using city water and
are not paying for it and who are back
in their payments.
The work was commenced in the
First ward and that portion of the city
is now completed. The inspection has
proved that in several cases, while the
books show that the resident is not
using the water, on a visit being made
to the premises 1t has been found that
the water is being consumed daily. 9th
ers are back in their water payments.
and list of all these will be presented
to the city council. The figures showing
the amount of delinquent water rents
will be made covering that period since
May 1900. Clerk Egermayer is of the
opinion that the city could collect for
the past five years, but owing to the
fact that the present records were not
started until in May, 1900, and the rec
ords back that are in such poor
shape. only rents since then will be coll
lected.
At the time the last report was made
a year ago it showed that there was
owed the city for water rents unpaid in
the entire city $3.50. BY the present
canvass just made, and which includes,
so far. only the First ward, there is
shown to be 1876 residents who are using
the city water without paying for it.
Some of these, the books show as hav-
ing had the water shut off. the remains
der are simply delinquent in their
payments. This ward alone owes the
city $1,270 for water. BY the time the
entire city is canvassed, If the present
rate is maintained, the amount will
reach several thousands of dollars that
this method of ferreting will turn into
the city Golfers. 1t is a wise plan that
is being. pursued. and the fellow who
hasn't paid for the water he has been
using must prepare to pay up or have
his service shut off.

be called to officiate at his funeral,
which was held Wednesday,. DR.. Par

last rites had been concluded he was
informed that Mr.. TIinchman had left
him $1,000. Rev. Parsons was naturally
very much surprised at the gift, and
he had officiated at the funeral not only
because Mr.. Hinchman was a member
of his former congregation, but a warm

not cut, for a time nothing was thought
OF the injury. In short time, however,
the injured man complained of severe
pain in his head and he was removed
to his home. A physician was sum-

was in great agony, and on attempting
to investigate the nature of the wound
was go painful to the suffering man
that it was necessary to postpone ex-

man suffered severely. and was in such

physicians that his skull had been frac-

cident it seems strange that the result
proved as severe as it did, for the bolt
weighed only two or three pounds and
did not fall over three feet before
striking him.
