The story is told Of an inserted
comma which cost the United States
government 100000. When the
congress was drafting the tariff bill It
enumerated in one section the articles
TO be admitted on the free list. Among
these were "all foreign fruit-plants. I"
The copying clerk omitted the hyphen
and inserted comma after fruit" so
that the clause read "all foreign fruit,
plants etc The mistake could not
be rectified for about year, and dur
ing this time all oranges, lemons, ba-
nanas, grapes and other foreign fruits
were admitted free Of duty. with a
loss TO the government OF at least So.

LABOR FhiiiNe. ~
wor'zcrs wanted In All Parts of the
United states.


Probably never before lII the history
of this country has there been such Il
widespread and universal demand for
labor az there Ia today. Moreover, 1t
10 absolutely Impossible to supply the
demand 1t Is conseryatively estimat-
ed that 100000 more men are want.
ell today In the various Industries of
the country. Particularly are skilled
workmen wanted by the thousands.
The New York Commercial has been
looking into the subject and says:
"wnlle strikes and the agitation Of
labor questions continue 10 be q men
ace to Industrial prosperity and prog
ress In this country, a far more serious
problem confronting capitalists and
employers today is the purely economic
one OF an adequate supply OF skilled
labor. As general statement there
is an actual famine OF skilled labor
just now in all lines Of production.
ut is a most alarming fact--one that
has only recently been disclosed as the
result of painstaking investigation
and one that cannot be refuted -that
many millions Of American capital are
today lying idle and unproductlve sim.
ply because their owners prefer not to
risk their employment in Industrial en-
terprises that are already suffering
from this skilled labor famine"
But the Commercial goes further and
prints reports from all over the coun.
try showing a lack of all kinds Of In.
Dor. There are workers wanted In the
cotton mills, in the linen cuff, collar
and shirt factories-in west, in the
south, everywhere.
It is no new cry that there are not
enough farm hands TO gather the crops
of the great west. but added to this
cry IL demand from New England
farms-those abandoned farms" the
free traders used to tell about-foI
help, and $45 month and board are
offered.
II Is a marvellous situation. With q
million annual increase In population
and n million immigrants. 100000 Of
whom are males. vet we are In the
throes OF labor famine without any
sign of relief. 1t is most emphati,
tribute to the operation OF our tariff
law and the contrast with ten year,
ago, when 100000 were Idle ant
3,OOO,OO more working on part tim,
because we had through a revision o.
our tariff opened our markets TO thu
products OF cheap foreign labor.

Musical comedy was introduced into

the name OF opera" an entertainment
called The Cruelty of Spaniards in
Peru was produced at the Cockpit
theater on that day. According TO no,
tees of the time, II was expressed by
vocal and instrumental music. and by
the art of perspective in scenery. "
The production also marks the first
use of scenery on the stage. and its

REASONS ARE. MANY.
Why This Country should Not Enter
Into Reciprocity Treaties.

First.-Because we should not dis
criminate. We should not grant a IA
vor to one nation that we do not grant
to all.
Second.-Because we should not seek
a favor from one nation and put our
selves under obligations to that ma
ton.
Third.-Because under any treaty,
however. favorable. we would open our
own, the best market In the world, al
ready secure, in exchange for doubt
full market OF doubtful value.
Fourth Because In competition In
the same line OF products, either In
our own market or a foreign market,
to be successful we must lower wages
to the competitors line.
Fifth.-Because we are not now able
to supply the demands OF our own mar
ket.
Sixth.-Because our imports are in
creasing too rapidly as It is, displsc-
ing goods we should make ourselves.
Seventh.-Because we are, as It is,
exporting more goods than any other
nation, and that, too, without sacrific-
ing our own market.
Eighth.-Because a reciprocity treaty
with one or two or three nations means
eventually with ALL and that means
simply a general reduction of our tariff
and the opening OF our market to the
world.
NINTH Because the leaders in the
reciprocity movement are not honest.
They are lot trying TO promote Amer
lean interests for foreign interests.
Tenth.-Because under no circum-
stances could we gain as much as we
should lose. IL is absolutely impossi-
BILE for us TO make treaty with any
country and get the better of IT,
Eleventh Because we are strong
enough TO be independent Of the entire
world and do not need to curry favor
with any one.
Twelfth Because. as the American
Free Trade league truly says, "Reci-
procity means free trade. and partial
reciprocity means partial free trade"
And there are dozen more reasons.
