be regarded as bearing upon the tariff

Enthusiastically descriptive Of protective

right Of Congress to pass such an act. The
decision therefore. taken as whole. can
not be tortured into a condemnation Of the
protective system. We entirely concur
with the author in believing it unlikely that
the constitutionality Of a tariff law will
ever again be seriously discussed before the
people. We do not believe that any fresh

More About Drumtochty.

In THE Land Of Heather macmillan
Company, Mr.. Clifton johnson reports the
observations made by him during a con-
siderable sojourn in Scotland. The hsw-
thorn had shed it's flowers when he left
southern England, but across the Tweed
he found it still in full bloom. He was in
time to begin with the Scotch spring at its
best. He saw much. Ian Maclaren may
have impressed him. or it is possible that
he would have been allured by it anyway.
but he fingered long in Drumtochty. His
observations In that hamlet fill 100 pages
Of his book. They are very minute. He

1924 that the constitutional question was,

As for the tarih act of 1894, our author
recognizes tina, this may plausbly be said
to have originated in spirit OF commercial
retaliation rather than in the need of rev

four acts more or less modifying the d,ty

during the twenty-five years betw een
the act Of 1894 and the general revision OF

A Contrary School Board.

In certain school district in Lin
coin township there are two OF. the
officers who are so contrary that they
are obnoxious to the patrons OF the
district. A short while back they re-
fused to pay An order held by Mrs.
Minton of Kinsley. She sued and
won the case, but the board of course
appealed, just to be contrary. When
the school term was over the teacher
asked for her. last order, but was re-
fused; first, on the grounds that she
must make up Thanksgiving day,
which is legal school holiday. Then
they roared because she had put in a
substitute for half day while away
a. Il witness. They then kicked be-
cause they had nothing else to do and
concluded not to let her have her full
order. The teacher concluded it was
another lawsuit, so to make peace
she gave the district half day more
schooling
I'VE print the above article by re-
quest wi bout personal knowledge of
the facts, although wa have heard it
reported that harmony does not exist
in the district referred to and that the
: Golden Rule" is dead letter.-ED. !

The Ways of the Boss.

One method of the Boss to achieve
success i termed by Topeka republic
An papers as the LELAND sun dance :"
This consists of having number of
friends announce ds candidates for
one Office and at the proper time form
a combination for the nomination of
the one previously selected for the
place by the Boss. The "Sun dance"
is now on in this congressional dis
trict. Nearly every county has one
or more candidates for the republican
nomination and al examination of
the list will disclose the fact that
nearly every county has Leland
man on the list. The scheme is TO
have the Leland man receive the home
end orse ment, and thereby place him
in position to- control the home
delegation If enough Leland men
get the home delegates, the rest Is
easy. AT the proper moment all these
fellows get out of the way and deliver
their delegates to the ca didatc select
ed by the "BOss', and the people who
elected the delegates and Instructed
them for the home man marvel at the
power of the Boss. This home man
business will be great, bunco game
in the approaching republican con-
gressional campaign. Tt is being
worked in this part of the Big Seventh
to defeat Fred Dumont Smith who has
broken with the Boss.-La Crosse
Chieftain.

Sensible as the Average.

According to the Wellington News,
BLOUSE Bill No. 9,763, 1876 is as fol.
lows:
Gan act to provide for a house
chiropodist, An asylum for crippled
and overworked employees and author
izing the organization of the G. e. T.
lodge.
'Be it enacted by Cyrus Leland
his assistants and assigns:
':Sec. THAT the office of house
chiropodist is hereby created Such
officer shall attend, at the expense of
the state. all employees of the house
whose corns may be injured by stand
ing on each others feet. Such officer
shall be known az the superintendent
of Vegetation and be attached to the
department of agriculture.
"Sec 2-That the sum of four mil.
lion dollars be, and the same is here
by appropriated to pay for the cree
tiOn and maintenance of an asylum or
home for the employees of this house
who may be suffering from nervous
prostration or overwork, or who may
have become crippled in trying to
keep out Of The way.
"Sec. 3.-Th"t the employees OF
this house be authorized to organize
a lodge to be known as the Grand
Useless Treasury hooters, the members
of the house to be ex-officio honorary
members of the same.
"Sec. 4.-This act shall take effect
and be in force rs soon as Speaker
Pringle convinces his constituents
that he worked and voted for Curtis
for SENATOR"
The Wellington News is a republi-
can paper, and the above is all right
except that it seems like making light
vt mighty serious things.

Mrs. Hansou's Entertainment.

The opera house was cOmforta bly
filed Tuesday evening to listen to the
entertainment given by our former
townswoman, Mrs. Fred Hanson The
Kinsley orchestra layed the opening
number and Mr.. Herman Wilson
made his first public appearance as u
violinist, receiving many compliments
on his playing. Miss Josephine Hills
played piano solo which was greatly
enjoyed by the audience, and gra-
ciOusly responded to II hearty encore.
Mrs. Hanson is a graduate of the
Emerson school of oratOry at Boston,
and in all phases of her work she is
unusually fine. Her charming per-
sOnality and kindly manner puts her
audience in friendly attitude at
once. Every number was heartily
encored, and every monoloSue was
deserving of hearty applause. Her
selections are all from the great
authors, and her interpretations of
their writings show a keen apprecia.
tiOn OF their meaning. Her friend
here take great interest in her devel-
opment along this line of work.
1t was q delightful, artistic enter
tainment and we hope some time Mrs.
Hanson will give us the pleasure of
another evening.
1t takes hard study, good literary
taste, an appreciation Of the pathos
and humor of real life, and a respOn-
sive soul. to be able to enter into the
feelings Of an author and give his
meaning to the public. When it is
we'll done. it teaches life's most valu-
able lessons.

SCHEDULE KNOCKED OUT.

The cars out along on the Punahou

were stalled this morning for over a
half.hour. The general mix-up of the
schedule was caused by the cars from
the Punahou direction running over
the King street line instead OF down

morning. Added to this was the fact
that one of the cars blow out a fuse
