Toxic, Oct 31.-There are 1878 Jap
anese prisoners in the hands Of Russia,
including non-combatants. The lists
furnished by Russia before the conclusion
of peace showed only 976.

[Chicago chronicle.1

LSHithS3O ltiitSiCsl
In ringing resolution, pregnant
with great results in the future, the
Chicago Commercial Association OPEN
ed the campaign for a broad and
world wide reciprocity yesterday at a
luncheon at the Auditorium. The ex-
preston Of the Willingness OF the man
ufacturers and business men of the
great middle west to meet the whole
world on an equitable basis of fair
competition came at the close of n
representative gathering OF Chicago's
leading men in every walk OF, business.
They had listened to the addresses OF
a senator from one of the most radical
of states and from the governor of
one of the most observation-disclosures
and Iowa-and they We're pleased to
note that both clasped, hands on the
new idea that the United States was
no longer q baby.
The keynote of the meeting was ex-
pressed by Governor Cummins of Iowa
when he said that IL reciprocity was to
come 1t was only by sending men to
congress who would do something In
place of men who did nothing. Sena-
tor Harris also hit the nail on the head
when he said that exclustveness IN
tariff affairs was past in this country.
In opening his address Governor
Cunmns, while announcing himself as
an unaIterable advocate of protective
tariff, finally admitted that he was in
favor of a revision OF the present tar
if. reducing the duties to a defensible
point so that the consumer might bene-
fit as we'll as the producer.
He caused laughter and applause by
saving that as he understood the object
Of the association it is ito concentrate
in Chicago the entire trade of the
United States" He held that the COR
ner stone of the nation was the protec-
ton to home industries, and this pollcy
would always be the foundation oil
prosperity. He considered the question
as settled forever, except in some min
or details. 1t was the established pol
lev. because 1t secured and promoted
the best interests Of the people. 1t was
never intended, however, that protec-
ton should give to the manufacturer,
actuated by cupidity and greed the
right to imuose a burden on the Ameri-
can people. but it was meant to equal
ize the cost of manufacture here with
the cost elsewhere.
The governor said he was for compe-
| tition at home in all legitimate lines IL
POSSIBLE and for competition abroad IL
necessary to maintain the balance OF
| trade.

pal,1ics IN THE AMENDMENT.

Notice has been served by the fact
that the following expression has APP
peared in the Burlington Hawkeye,
that there is going to be some politics
in the biennial election amendment II
there never has been. The Hawkeye
says:
Notice was served May 3 that Pc
tition asking the court to reopen the
biennial election amendment case Will
be filed in the supreme court clerk
office soon. Under the rules the at
torneys may have thirty days in which
to file the petition for rehearing. The
men who are legally fighting the
amendment are not satisfied that the
decision given was based OH an ac-
curate review of the evidence and ar
guments presented They desire to
discuss the opinion in the case which
Judge I4add wrote and in which the
other justices concurred. The court
did not discuss in this opinion some of
the questions which those attacking
the amendment had presented. They
desire the new opportunity to present
these matters again. There undoubt-
eddy is a growing regret that the
amendment was adopted at the polls,
and 1t is developing that but for the
active work in its behalf by county Of
ficials who would profit in an extra
years term in office by it's adoption IL
would have been defeated by large
majority. The amendment was pri-
marily introduced in behalf of indiyid-
ual interests and its adoption was Sc .
cured by the efforts of those WHO
would personally gain by it, 1t would
rot, therefore, be a. great sorrow,
should he court finally decide against

women's clubs are bands binding the
individual sentiment of good women
into a lever strong enough to move
legislatures and turn the course o.
public sentiment.
Let Dowie rave. He cannot stop a
reform or change the opinions of the
great common sense public that knows
and honors the work that women have
done and are doing, and that is grant
ing every day more honor to their
motives and more aid to their purposes,
The w. C. T. U. will remain a force

Sheep Walked to Their Death,
baltimore Herald.l

baltimore Herald.l
"The most striking example of fol-
lowing a leader into the jaws OF death
I ever saw took place. in Kent county
last week." said Kent county far-
mer
"Ex-Sheriff Edward j. Plummer,
he continued, had a flock of seven
teen sheep, which, for some unac-
countable reason, determined to go
from one pasture to another. TO make
the Journey it was necessary to cross
the creek on the ice. Sure. enough,
the old buck of the flock walked cau-
tiously out on the weakened ice. When
he was about midstream it gave way
and he plunged IN.
THE other sheep, instead of return
ing to the shore. which they could
have done, deliberately, and, as the
lawyers would put it, with malice
aforethought,' walked into the hole IN
the ice made by their leader and were
drowned. Nothing but sheep would
have ever been fool enough to be
guilty of such a performance. There
was possibly some excuse for the fool
hardy old buck, but can think of no
extenuating circumstances in the case
of the others"

00wiE AND THE ". C. I. U.

Dowie's latest scurrility Is aimed at
the w. C. T. u, which he says has
demoralized American homes as class
of "old maids who have no. business
IN the work of temperance reform.
What Dowie, who is naturally and
from his profession Of graft scurrile
and irresponsible, may say. is Of small
Importance, except to his neurotic fol-
towers. As general thing Mr.. Dowie's
