Tariff War Feared.

WASHINGTON, April 26.--lt is ad-
mitted at the state department that
pour parlers have been in progress Tor
the last three months between the
American embassy at Berlin and the
German foreign office respecting the
effect upon the existing reciprouty
agreement between America and Ger
manv of the new trade treaties con
cluded by Germany with several Euro
mean countries, but SO far Ambassador
Tower has not notified the depart
ment that Germany has decided &c
terminate the existing arrangement
The effect of formal declaration ol
that kind would be very serious, II Il
feared, and Tower is now engaged IN
one of the most difficult and compile,
tasks which he has been called upor
10 discharge. If the arrangement Is
denounced and no substitute Is found
then II may be that the United States
and Germany will soon become In
yolved in a tariff war which woui
certsinly prove disastrous TO one O
both. in view of the vast trade between
| the two countries.

Idaho Senatorial Contest.


The Lewiston Tribune, Idahos lead
ing and most conservative democratic
newspaper thus views the Idaho sena-
torial contest:
New interest has been given to cam
paign prospects in Idaho by the announc-
ment of Mr.. VIM. E. Borah that he ex-
pected to submit his candidacy for the
United States senate to the convention
OF his party in advance of legislative
action, to which by construction may
be added Mr.. Borah's purpose, in the
event of falling to secure the conven
ton nomination. not to subsequently
submit his name to the legislature as a
candidate. This is position that can
be taken only by a strong man, as it is
first necessary to induce the convention
TO depart from it's usual custom and
make a nomination and then to have
ones self chosen as the nominee. To
procure the one will probably carry
with it the other, though not necessarily
so. In the present case MIR. Borah will
have to go against the field, as there
are prospective candidates for the posi-
ton who could not hope to secure the
nomination of the general convention
yet who would like~to enter hecontest
in the legislative assembly where the
result is always uncertain unless one
candidate has clear majority to begin
with, which is seldom the case. In the
last senatorial election Mr.. Borah had
more original legislative votes than any .
other one man, he receiving 10 to Judge
Heyburn's Is in the party caucus and
maintaining clear lead until the com
bination was made that resulted i'm the
election. Mr.. Borah appears to fear
there may be such result in the next
legislative assembly, particularly il the
state administration were to be inclined
toward any other candidacy. If Mr..
Borah, however, and the administration
were to work together, the result would
be foregone. The fact that Mr.. Borah
takes an independent attitude on his
candidacy makes it look like division
OF interest from the administration. IN
which the personnel of the whole ticket
may become involved at the state con-
vention. For Mr.. Borah to secure the
nomination in convention he may have
to go over the head of the administration
and square issue thus be raised be-
tween the two. The indications there
fore are for very pretty, contest that
cannot be put off very long and that
will be felt from top to bottom in all
the states that may be formed within
the dominant party of the state. The
result, which concerns men rather than
issues, need not necessarily impair the |
party's voting strength but it will pro-
badly leave soreness enough to help the
minority party considerably, provided
only it were in strong enough position
to draw to itself the dissatisfied element
of the governing party"

TRIBUTES TO SIR HENRY TVIN.s
From King Edward Downward All
England Mourns-May Rest i'm
Westminster Abbey-Desire Seems
General That the Distinguished Ac-
tor Should be Buried In the Abbey,

London. October 16.-That the body
of Sir Henry Irving should find a rest
ing place in Westminster Abbey ap-
pears 10 be a very general desire. An
editorial in this mornings Daily Tele-
graph says:
1.-THE nation will, we are persuaded,
ask his honor for him with no uncer-
tain voice, and we know we interpret
the wish and feeling OF the country
when we plead for a public interment
in the abbey"
The food of tribute OF admiration
and affection is increasing. From King
Edward downwards men of all classes,
including the great churchmen, are
giving public expression to their feel
ings on the sad occasion, nearly all
dwelling as much on Sir Henry Irv-
ing's personal character as on his his
triOnic talents.
1t seems to be beyond doubt that
Irving sacrificed himself by hard
work. He had been advised a long
time ago to give up arduous roles like
that of Matthias in The Bellies ow-
ing to the strain thrown On his weak
heart. and only last week he had been
reluctantly persuaded to omit. The
Bells" in future.
1t appears that for several years
past the weakness of the lungs had
thrown an undue strain on the heart
Sir Charles Wyndkam says that I'm
February last, he begged Sir Henry
to take warning and not to burn the
candle smooth at both ends with recep-
tons in the morning and exacting
formances in the evening.
Many interesting touches are re-
vealed in the tributes OF Sir Henry's
friends For instance Forbes Robert
son says that Sir Henry told him it
was his financial successes in the Unit
ed States that enabled him To create
his success at the Lyceum theatre In
London,
General Booth Of the Salvation
Army. !. l.. Toole. the actor. and Sir
Theodore Martin were among the vet
Grams who FASTENED TO express the
sense OF loss the world had sustained
in the death of the distinguished his
torian.
Nothing has yet been decided as To
the funeral arrangements pending the
meeting OF thatrical managers. which
Sir Charles Wynrham has called for
today and which probably will decide
to ask the dean of Westminster Alb
hey to permit interment I'm the abbey.

SIMPLE REMEDY FOR CArARRH
just Breathe Hyomei Four Times a
Day and Be Cured.

If a few years ago someone had said
you can cure catarrh by breathing air
charged with a healing baisam, the
idea would have been ridiculed, and it
remained for that eminnet ~investifa-
tor, r. T. Booth, to discover in Hyomei
this method OF cure.
Hyomei has performed almost mir
aculous cures of catarrh, and is today
recognized by leading members of the
medical profession as the only adver-
tiSed remedy that can be relied upon
to do just what it claims. The COM
plete outfit of Hyomei costs $1.O0, and
consists OF an inhaler, a medicine
dropper, and a bottle of Hyomei.
Breathe Hyomei through the inhaler
for a few minutes four times a day,
and it will cure the worst cas of a
tarrh. 1t soothes and heals the mu-
ccus membrane Of the air Passages,
prevents irritation and effects a COM
plete and lasting cure.
In Wilmington there r scores of
well known people who have been
cured of catarrh by Hyomei. III 1t does
not cure you, r r Bellamy will return
the money you pay for Hyomei. This
Is the strongest evidence that n be
offered as TO his faith in the remedy.
