is WOMAN ALWAYS BOSS q?
So it Would Seem According to this
Mans Experiment.

In Buffalo recently Owen Wister
swapped stories with a party of
friends till early in the morning. The
conversation at last touched upon a
woman's influence in dome tic circles.
and one of the group reminded Mr..
Wister of his declaration that the
east is the head of the country and
the west the heart.
And in the heart Of the country

country there lives an old man who
is considered well-to-do in worldly
goods and has an only son, Hank

father opposed him.

women are natural bosses. If you get

But the young man pooh-poohed
the idea and said that no woman
would ever henpeck him, and that he
knew lots OF married men who led
happy, untrammeled lives.
Tell you what I'll do, at last
said his father. You take span OF
my best horses, hitch them into the
blackboard, take a crate of fresh eggs
and drive round and see your friends.
Whenever you find a woman who runs

find a man who is boss give him a

at the effect of such tariffs upon home in

The history of panics and other periodic
depressions in trade will be compiled in the
effort to determine their possible relations
to the tariff policies of the countries in
which they occurred. The prices of all
commodities in England and the colonies
tries will be shown. The purposes of for
eign tariffs. whether revenue. protective
or retaliatory, and the sentiment of for

tariffs for these puposes will be ascer-
tanned.
Naturally, great Importance will be given
to trade conditions in the British colonies,
especially in Canada. Canada has been the

1t will be realized that the English tariff
commission has undertaken an enormous
work, much of which will never be COM

labors under is its lack of official standing,

MAY FORGET THE WEAKER RACE.
Booker T. Washington Speaks Before a
New York Audience.

A dispatch from New York last night
says: Booker T. Washington discussed
the problem of the negro and his future
in this country tonight in an address be-
fore the Methodist Social Union.
Reduced to its last analysis" Mr.. Wash
ington said there are but two questions
that constitute the problem of the coun-
try, as far as the black and white races
are concerned. The answer to the one
rests with my people; the other with the
white race. r1,~
For my race, one of it's dangers is that
1t may grow impatient and feel that it can
get upon it's feet by artificial and superficial
efforts rather than by the slower but surer
process which means one step at a time
through all the constructive grades of in
dustrial, mental, moral and social develop
ment which all races have had to follow
which has been Independent and strong.
''For the white race the danger is that
in it's prosperity and power il may forget
the claims of weaker people, may forget
that strong race, like an Individual,
should place it's hand upon it's heart, and
ask it if it were placed in similar circum-
stances how it would like the world to
treat it; that the stronger race may forget
that in proportion as it lifts up the poorest
and weakest, then by hair breadth it
strengthens and ennobles itself"

question will come to head at the pres
ent session of parliament, thus postponing
the probability of a general election until
next winter at least. To defeat the present
party in power seems to be an impossible
ity, for no party has undergone such vi
cissitudes and stood such remarkable strain
as Mr.. Balfour's administration, and re-
tanned it's hold upon the government.
1t is announced from the offices of the
commission that when the work is entire
ly finished, the memoranda issued will prob
ably cover the entire field of British in
dustry. Upon certain points, however
special information is desired as it is upon
these points that the entire system of
tariffs suggested will rest. In brief the
commission proposes that its labors shall
result In complete basic information for
the building up of a new fiscal policy for
the greatest trading nation in the world
Briefly stated, the information to be Sc
cured will be included within the follow
ling divisions: The iron and steel trades
of Great Britain, being the most important
industry, will be considered first, not only
as to domestic conditions, but in their re-
lations to the iron and steel trades of for
eign countries. The policies. especially in
the direction of import duties, of all for
eign countries from which England re-
ceives goods will be carefully considered
notably as to the future prospects of
changes in the tariff and the making of
reciprocity treaties. The resources of the
British colonies, foreign railway rates as
compared with English railway rates, the
fuel supply of the world, the iron and steel
development in the United States and Ger
many, the operation of trusts, and the loss
due to strikes and lock-outs are all mat
ters directly affecting British trade. The
rates of wages, condition of the working
people, and the labor supply of foreign
countries, a S compared with the home mar
ket, will be tabulated. There will be
general treatment of the tariffs OF all for

Distributing Relief.

81 should like to tell you of the courage,
endurance and the devotion of the men who
distributed the relief many of whom died
at their posts of duty as bravely and as
uncomplaining as they might have died
upon the field of battle. The world will
never know the extent and the number of
sacrifices made by the British and native
officials. The government alone expended
s32, 100000 for food, while the amount dis
bursed by the native states, by religious
and private charities was very large The
contributions from abroad were about
$3,0O0,OOO, and the government loaned the
farmers more than $20,0y00O0 to buy seed
and cattle and put in new crops
so far the official figures are con-
cerned. the total cost of the famine of 1850
was as follows:
BRITISH INDIA
LOSS OF revenue, .........-........ 1920, 900
Loans to farmers and native states. 81 800 600
NATIVE STATES.
Relief expenditure and loss of revenue 500 500 900

Some part of these loans and advances
will eventually be repaid. But 1t is not a
new thing for the government of India to
relieve its people in times of distress. The
frequent famines have been an enormous
drain upon the resources of the empire
