AMENDS PHILIPPINE TARIFF.
Senate Committee Gives Heed to Sugar
and Tobacco Men.


Washington, Jan. 24.-The senate
committee on the Philippines today
authorized a favorable report on the
Philippine tariff bill, which recently
pasead the hnnsA. Init seish irsx.c-Aa.. az
amendments. The house bill carried .
more uniform reduction of the tariff on
Philippine goods imported into the
United States, making the rate only
25 per cent of the rates imposed by the
Dingley Law.
The senate committee amended the
bill so az to provide for the admission
Of ell Philippine produ, ed articles free
of duty except sugar and tobacco, and
on these two commodities fixed the
tariff at so per cent of the Dingley
schedules. This change was made to
meet the objections of the sugar and
tobacco producers of this country, who
have claimed that a duty of only 25 per
cent on those articles would result in
ruinous competition.

Making Money in Mexico.

A New Yorker who has just returned
from visit to Mexico says that "many
Americans are making fortunes out Of
the mines throughout the Republic.
Already there are five thousand silver
mines and over one thousand gold
mines being operated, and last year the
value of these metals exported was
nearly $40,000.000. In no other coun-
try in the world are cotton mills pay
ing such dividends as those In Mexico,
and new manufacturing plants Of
every description are going up all over
the Republic. 1t has great future
and In developing itself 1t is benefiting
the business men Of the United States.
The importation of machinery from this
country in the last year amounted to
over $8.000.000."

Whitman. Miss, Jan. 24.-Two fs-

and few inches wide and running for
distance of quarter of mile are the
only evidences of mysterious explo-

earth's crust about three feet in depth
and two or three inches wide. They
followed it foi three-quarters of mile

they discovered another fissure of the

some loved friend who might share the
danger with him. His hair, which was

AGAINST FREE TRADE.
Premier BalfOur DenOunces the Pol
Icy as Injurious to EngInnd's
Export Trade.

When Joseph Chamberlain attacked
the free trade policy of Great Britain
there was disposition to attribute his
zeal to his desire to carry through his
proposals for a preferential tariff ar
rangement with the colonies. The eff
feet of what he said was lessensd by the
belief that he had been moved by po-
litical eXigency.
With Premier Balfour, however, it is
different, says the Cleveland Leader.
His recent pamphlet, denouncing the
free trade policy, contains not a word
about the Chamberlain proposals. He
discusses the fiscal policy of Great Brit
ain aside from any political issue When
ne says, therefore, that the free traders
have made blunders from which the
government has suffered, the statement
is calculated to arrest attention. He
charges, not only that British export
trade has diminished under free trade,
but that the manufacturers of other
countries have been enabled to sell their
goods in England at lower price than
that which British manufacturers can
charge. This, he says, is one of the re-
suits of free trade country entering
into competition with a protectionist
country. We must" he declares, ''get
rid of these bonds in which we have gra-
tuitously entangled ourselves"
There is no denying the fact that the
English government leaders are becom-
ing weary of free trade, since they have
been forced to confront conditions
which, it was predicted, would arise 20
years ago by the protectionist orators
and newspapers in this country. Is 1t
not amazing, under the circumstances,
that there should still be men in this
country welded to the doctrine of free
trade, and who believe that protection is
wrong in theory and practice?

HELPING THE REPUBLICANS.
Insane Rant of Southern Democratic
Organs Working Self
Destruction.

Mississippi has struck the first deci-
sive blow at those ugly children of hate
and sectional ranCor, those amendments
to the federal constitution which de-
grade American citizenship and dis
grace American civilization. Other
states are sure to follow in the near fu-
ture, but Mississippi will have the honor
OF leading the assault" Thus shreks
the Memphis Commercial Appeal, in
speaking of the nomination of Varda-
man for governor of Mississippi, NOM
ination being equivalent to election in
this case. Its neighbor, the Scimitar,
howls that Vardaman's victory is a
rebuke for President Roosevelt for treat
ing the negro as man entitled to some
political rights under the law.
This insane rant, says the St Louis
Globe-Democrat, shows that the gods
are getting ready to clean out the demo-
cratic party again. very yelp of this
sort from southern paper will bring
thousands of democratic voters in the
north to the republican party. Through
out nearly all the great states of the
north and west to-day the democratic
party is feeble and discredited sect, and
its silly southern section is making it
still weaker and still more contemplate.
Outside of the old slave region of 1861
the democrats got only Is electoral votes
in 1900, and even in the slave section
they lost Delaware, Maryland and West
Virginia The implacables of the Mem
phis brand are doing their little best to
put these Bryante electoral votes on
the republican side in 1904
SO long as democrats of the south can
be baited or bTibed into such antics as
the Mississippi democrats and their out
side champions have been playing recent
ly, the republicans need have no fear of
the result in any national election. A
solid south will make a solid north, and
the solid north will always win. The
Nardamans and the Moneys are grosser
variety of the Yanceys and the Toombses
OF long ago, and their rawlings will hit
their section as the howlings Of the
earlier marplots did, though the punish
ment will not take the same shape as
the other did. The frothings of the Brick
Pomeroys, of Memphis. and other south |
ern towns, as distributed through the |
north and west by the republican ma
tional committee in 1904, will bring more |
democrats to the republican side than |
have been on this side at any time since !

CAN COLOR DIAMONDS.
DIR. &. W. Fuchs Announce. New Use
for the X-Rays.

Diamonds of the Durest white and
most dazzling brillit ncy will soon be
within the reach of the smallest
wage-earner, if f. w. Fuchs X-ray
process of changing the color Of
gems proves to be all that expert
ments indicate. Mr. Fuchs, who is "a.
Chicago man, hopes that with the
perfection of his process he will be.
a BILE to bleach poor yellow stones to.
clear white. Mr.. Fuchs has been.
laboring for five years, and he is now
able to announce that he can change
diamond to any other color desired.
In his experiments, during which he.
has used LOCO worth of stones, he.
has changed one and one-half carat
diamond to a brilliant green, With,
added luster. He also produced a
stone of rich brown, similar to the.
$25.000 gem in King Edwards crown,
and further changed a siX-carat white
stone to black. The coloration is per-
manent if desired, though Mr.. Fuchs.
can return the stone to its original
color.
Topazes, pearls and other gems
submit readily to the treatment, a.
yellow topaz having been changed to
a deep green by the process. The
method consists in directing the
H-rays through the substances from,
which the color is to be obtained be-
fore the rays touch and penetrate,
the diamond. Mr.. Fuchs declares,
that it is a known fact that diamond
has large pores, and that it is par
tally through these that the parti-
cles are able to pass into the body.
Of the stone. The inventor says that
he will keep part of the process.
