 Reports of committees were satisfac- tory, and all business was finished.
 A letter from Mrs. John B. Gordon &C., knowledging the receipt of the resolutions of respect to General Gordon, was read.

Several ladies present gave personal "reminiscences of the return. Our hostess showed bonnet she wore during the war. made of wheat straw bleached. Her mother. Mrs. Susan Driver Grey, made the bonnet. To many of the younger members is was curiosity, but to others 1t was only a reminder, and many tales of homemade bonnets were told.

Total tariff tax per family -.......
Space will not permit detailed ca
PLANTATION of how the estimate of the
tariff tax on each item in the table was
reached nor is such explanation nee
essary; the methods of comparison
and of making deductions from official
reports and other reliable data were
the same in all the articles, and it will
suffice to give one or two articles as
illustrations: for example. the table
contains the statement that the tariff
tax on boots and shoes is only $1.35
per family, of which the government
gets only II cents, while the beef,
leather and other trusts get $1.23.
This estimate was reached in the for
lowing manner: According to Hon.
William B. Rice. of Rice & Hutchins.
one of the largest boot and shoe man.
ufacturing concerns in the country,
and according to other well-infOrmed
experts on boot and shoe matters, the
duty of Is per cent on hides put on
by the Dingley bill in 1897, has entail
ed a tax upon the American people OF
not less than 81 .OoO. 900 annually, and
cost of every American made pair OF
boots and shoes.
Now what is from to per cent
of the cost of boots and shoes" To
answer this question we must know
what the American people pay for
their boots and shoes. The factory
value of leather boots and shoes pro-
duced in 1900 was 1851. OPS. $50. Our
exports were valued at $4,197 sec. The
retail value of boots and shoes sold a
home was approximately $S45.0OO. 900
TO which should be added S26.550, Cos
for custom work. making 1871, 000.0 600
as the total cost of leather boots and
SHOES. Five to s per cent" of S371,-
100000 is S1S.50O.OOO to 100000. 900.
Adopting a mean between these two
extremes. we see that the tariff adds
OO0. or s1.S5 per family. Now the
duty collected on imported boots and
shoes and on materials which enter
in their manufacture amounts TO only
about $4,000 900 a year: consequently
the government receives only II
cents per family. leaving SIPS for the
beef. leather and other trusts. as stat
ed in the table.
An additional illustration may be
given in the case of wooden goods
The table states that the tariff taS
paid by the American people on wool
en- goods amounts annually to 81 per
family. This estimate is arrived at
thus:

manufacturers are reducing their out
put and running OH a much smaller
scale than was the case several years
ago They are finding that the Ding
ley tariff does not produce the endur-
ing prosperity, and Zen the more con-
servative of the republican manufac-
turers here are sayin5 very freely that
tariff revision must come, and come
soon. Tariff revision, for the sake of
the manufacturer who wants to ex-
pand and develop his business, is a
phase of the agitation which is receiv-
ing a great deal more attention than
the believers in the stand pat Cos
pei are willing TO acknowledge.
4 Bad Crop Report From Ohio.
Considerable anxiety is manifested
here over the report made a few days
ago by the Ohio department of agri-
culture. in which it is stated that the
crops this year were TO be much small
er than those Of 1908. The estimate of
the corn crop is that it will not be
more than three-fourths of a normal
year. while the estimates of the wheat
crop do not provide for more than
one-half of the full product. the har-
vest per acre being about four bushels
short of the net average. The wheat
area just harvested was the lowest in
a long series of years. and the total
production was the lowest. with the
exception of 1896 and 1900, in % years.
This will undoubtedly have an effect
upon the railroad returns in this state
and upon the incomes of the farmers.
The stand pat" people in this state
are also considerably puzzled over the
fact that in spite of the Unfortunately
high duties levied on raw wool the
production in this great wOOl-grOwing
state has been steadily decreasing. 1t
is beginning to be feared by those who
want the tariff to be revised only up
ward. that it VIII not be long before
the demand of the manufacturer for
free wool must Of needs be granted.

Increase in Cost of Living.

The factory value of woolens manu-
featured in this country in 1900 was
$296, 990,4S4. According to the Sta
tistical Abstract the raw wool retained
for consumption amounted TO 5.72
pounds per capita in 1900 and to 5.74
pounds in 1908. AS our population in
creased more than 5 per cent from
1900 to 1903, and as the values of
clothing of all kinds averaged per
cent higher in 1903 than in 1900
though the prices of wool were about
the same-it is fair to add per cent
TO the 1900 product to obtain the fac
tory value of wooiens in 1908. This
would make it $31S,00O. 900.
The imports of wooden goods for
consumption in 1903 amounted to $19,-
3O2,007. on which a duty of ST, 564 .694
was collected, averaging 81 per cent
on the foreign cost of the goods. In
Guiding transportation costs from for
eign countries the imported woolens
when they reached our shores were
worth fully s3S,OOO,000.
Adding together the values of wool
ems produced and imported we get
1856, 900, 900 Deducting 36000.000 as
used for other purposes. there remains
S320,0O0,000 as the factory and import
value of all woolens used for clothing.
Adding Is per cent for profits. we find
that the total value of wooden mater
ials ready to make clothing was, in
1908, about $3GS. 100000. The retail
value of all kinds of wooden clothing
and goods was probably 60 per cent
greater, or $500, 900, 900 This gives an
average of s34.G4 per family, which is
far below Edward Atkinson's estimate
Our imports of raw wood in 1903
were valued at $21,25S,O OBJ, on which
a duty of 81 ,631,O4S was collected
Hence the total duty collected on wool
and woolens was $29.195.736, or $1.72
per family. AS only about one-tenth
of our wooden goods are imported and
as the tariff cost of these goods is at
retail, about $3.50 per family. it is rea-
sonable to assume that the tariff cost
of the ten times as many domestic
wOOlens is, at retail $40 per family.
In the table the total tariff cost is es-

ACCIDENT TO MRS.
De woe is FATAL
Aged Sears Woman Injured al
Canning Factory Dies at
the Hospital.
UNCONSCIOUS TWO WEEKS
Foot Crushed by Stepping on Endless
Chain in Huskinq
Room.

Mrs. COrinda DeVoe, the aged lady
Canning company's factory in Sears
over a month ago died yesterday at 3
o'clock at St. AnthOny's hospital, where
she has been confined since the acct
dent. Mrs. DeVOe, who was n years
of age, was employed at the canning
factory husking sweet corn, and had
been at her work for a little over a
week. One morning in crossing the
room she stepped into the endless
chain carrier that removed the refuse.
and suffered very painful injuries. Her
ankle was badly crushed and the bones
of the leg injured.
She was attended by DR.. Eddy. of
Milan. and it was nearly a week later
before she was removed to the hos
pital The result of the accident would
not have been fatal TO person of
fewer years, but with the shock and
weakness Mrs. DcVOe could not stand
tine strain. For over two weeks she
had been unconscious the greater part
of tho time and barely remained alive.
Mrs DeVOe was native of Peters
borough. n. Y. and came TO Sears in
1880 with her husband. Anthony, who
died about eight years ago. Since the
death of her husband she had been
making her home with her son. Dudley,
in Sears. but felt that she must do what
she could to support herself. The en-
plOyment offered at the canning fac
tory was pleasant and she had worked
there in former seasons.
She is survived by two Sons. Dudley,
of Sears, and Anthony, of Rock Island.
and by her daughter. Mrs. John Sic
grist. of Rock Island. The funeral is
to be held tomorrow afternoon at 2
O'Clock from the home of her son. Dud-
ley, in Sears.
Funeral of James Carney.
The funeral of James Carney, who
died late Saturday afternoon was held
this morning from the Sacred Heart
church. The services were conducted
by Rev. Father LOckney. and inter
ment was made in the Calvary GENE
terry. A large number of the friends
of the aged gentleman were present
TO pay their last respects at his grave.

timated at $11 per family, of which
SLIP went to the government.
According to these estimates, which
under rather than over estimate the
amount of the tariff tax. the average
family spent in 1903. including the
values of goods consumed at home.
about $40. OF this $40. $3.50 went
for goods. $1652 went as legitimate
taxes to the government, and S94 went
to swell the profits of the trusts and
monopolies. That is, 81 out of every
SO expended by an American family
goes to protected mOnopolies. The
tariff tax. therefore. unnecessarily in
creases the cost of living 10 per cent.
and amounts to S1,599,000.000 for the
II 000, 900 families in this country. 1t
is this tax which is mainly responsible
for the unparalleled growth of trusts
since the passage of the Dingley act
in 1897, for the dangerous concentra-
ton of wealth in the hands of a COM
paratively few. and for the rapid in
crease in the number of multi-milliOn-
aires. Every man who votes to stand
pat" on Dingley protection" votes to
tax his family 10 per cent year on
all it's expenditures and to turn the
proceeds over to the monopolists. who
already own or control a majority of
all the wealth of the country.
Although the amount of expendi-
lures for tariff taxes varies in the diff
ferent classes of families, according
TO their incomes and general expenses.
yet it is approximately correct to say
that the percentage paid on account of
tariff is about the same in the various
voCatiOnS.
The expenditures of the average
family in the wage earning classes
probably does not exceed $3.50 a year.
Those of the average family in the sal
airy earning and professional classes
will probably average $1,000. Those of
the average family in the employing
classes. exclusive of the farmers. will
probably average $4,000 or $4,000 a
year. We have then the following es-
innate of the tariff tax paid by the
average American family:
Wage earner's family "a year, .....s IS
Salary earner's family a year, ..... 12O

In 1902 the Massachusetts bureau
of statistics of labor gave the results
of an investigation of the earnings ana
expenditures of 1872 wOrkingmen's
families: by families with incomes
above $1,000 the percentage of expen-
diture for rent was 12.43 per cent; IL
diminished from 21.96 per cent to 6.S
per cent for families of incomes OF
less than $40O. The average for food
was about 40 per cent; fuel and lighl
averaged G.91 per cent (7.91 for the
poorer families down to 4.40 for fami-
lies with large earnings) Clothing av-
eraged 11.69 per cent (9.15 per cent
for the $3.50 families up to 14.66 pei
cent for the $3.50 and $1,000" fam
