The Ideal Clothing.

Great Northern Railroad pelting rain

came in dripping like the proverbial

to the stove as they we'll could without
being scorched. Shortly, clouds of
steam ascended from their soaked CLOTH

a vapor bath.

THE TARIFF REFORMERS

We have a class of men in the
country who claim to be Republi-
cans. and have been so esteemed for
many years, who seem imbued
with the idea that there is some
thing seriously wrong with the tariff
and that it is working a great in
Justice to the America people in
many cases.
OF course we expect a Democrat
TO talk free trade and tariff reform
glibly' without knowing what he
means. The Democrats ofthe pre-
sent generation were born with those
terms in their mouths. They have
wandered away from the teachings
of their patron saint, Thos. Jeffer
son. so far that they have got on
the wrong side of the question en-
tirelyl Why, if Thomas Jefferson
were fiving today he would be a first
class modern Republican with his
f advanced ideas on protection and
expansion.
The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1906-12-21

and their products are sold IN pch
cheaper than before the tariff was
placed.
For some time the great shoe
manufac cturers Of Massachusetts,
have been raising big roar and
threatening to rebel because of the
IS per cent duty on hides We pre-
sumo our farmer friends have not
forgotten the low price they got for
hides before that little protective
duty was placed there. Why hide
in those days was scarcely worth
the taking off. Now it is worth
SOM money. These shoe monop-
olists want to get that tariff off. not
for the purpose of cheapening shoes
to the people but for the purpose OF
making that little extra profit them
selves.
The. tariff on hides adds to the
cost of pair of shoes about &c
cents on an average. Any farmer
who sells one hide makes enough
extra out of 1t to pay the tariff on
all the shoes his family will wear for
several years. Besides by the ac-
tion of the tariff immense factories
have been built and thousands OF
men and women given employment
at good wages for the farmer to feed
and thereby higher price is placed
on all his products.
The great trouble with any revis
ion of the tariff is the long drawn ou
debates that must follow and thu
resulting stagnation of business
| When 1t becomes evident thai
there are gross inequalities in tn
tariff that are working hardship Of
any considerable number of GU
people, then will the Republica1
party take up the schedules that ar
wrong and correct them.
In the meantime it would be we
: for these great tariff reformers t.
look up the schedules they thin
wrong and point them out to tt
people that they may be thorough
discussed, If they cannot be salts
fed to wait the timely action OF tn
Republican party they had bette
join the great party Of tariff reforr
in whose ranks such theories are a

DOES 1T PAY
From the Chicago Inter Ocean.

- ---~ ~~~~e OS~eeAs
Not many years ago young man
began life in one of the larger towns
of Illinois. He had been we'll edu.
Gated for his honorable profession
He was admitted to be talented pro.
fessionally and acceptable socially.
He had the prestige of being the
son of a man who had been a power
in public affairs and had held offices
|of national Importance. In due
time he married wife who bought
him dowry which. if managed with
any sort of prudence, would have
put them permanently above mater
lal anxiety.
Certainly no young man ever en-
tered upon life with fairer prospects,
With his talents and his resources
and the Influence of his family and
friends he had but to run straight to
make his course through life pros
porous and successful. Yet he is
today self-confessed forger under
bonds for appearance in the GRIM
inal courts. With forged deeds and
mortgages he admits that he robbed
friends who trusted him with their
money. His wife's fortune has dis.
appeared. From being worth about
SIoo, 900 he is believed TO owe
SIoo, 900.
The explanation of this situation
is that It was brought by ''untortu-
nate speculations" and "expenses Of
keeping up his social position. In
other words, he was not content to
live creditably in sober comfort.
He must needs vie in luxury and ex-
travagance with others. For the
Dead sea fruit of ''social promin-
ence"-for the distinction OF ap-
pearing to have so much money
that 1t did not matter how much he
wasted-he has brought his wife
into poverty and himself to an end
whose only escape from the peniten-
tiary may be an insane asylum.
We're this an isolated case it would
be possible to sympathize in silence
with the unfortune man, But there
are many men and their wives living
such lives. Every thoughtful man
who looks about him among his
neighbors sees with regret men aud
women who are spoilIng their lives

We expect the Democrats to keep
hammering away on tariff reform
You will remember they won the
presidency once on that cry and
hope to do so again. But when 1t
comes to-Repnblicans joining in the
cry of wolf, wolf, when there is no
wolf, seems very strange and must
come from selfish motives or wrong
conception of the Republican idea
If protection.
There may be some little changes
in the tariff that would be desirable,
could the president or some body
else just sit down and make them
without opening up the whole ques
ton of the tariff and plunging the
whole business of the country into
condition of uncertainty while a lot
congressman, as incompetent to
handle the subject as the Demo-
cratic mule, are peckiLg away at the
fundamental cause of our great pros
per,y and wonderful business Ac-
tivitv.
Toe Democratic saying that "the
tariff is the mother of trusts" has
been shown to be erroneous so often
that it is not worthy of further con-
siderarion. And yet the tariff does
have a tendency to promote trusts
in The sense that it createsg great com
mevc,a activity and in periods o.
commercial activity trusts seem te
spring up and thrive. Free trade !;

it ruins the bvsiness Of the country
and they cannot thrive.
Why a Republican should b.
caught by the Democratic cry o
tariff reform is more than we cal
understand. There are some sched
ules that are higher than they nee
be now but we cannot see that the
are harming anybody. The taril
of $4. 90 per keg on wire nails ma
be higher than is necessary now bu
it bothers no one and cuts NO figure

PRESIDENT in EARNEST.

A recent Washington dispatch an
1ouaced that President Roosevelt
was SO thoroughly incensed at the
speech made by Senator Foraker, in
which among other things the Presi
dents veracity mas been questioned
that he dispatched Milton E. Purdy
assistant attorney general, to Browns
Vile to secure additional testimony
and make a report to him. The facts
disclosed will not be communicated
sage, but will be made public through
other channels.
1t is stated that the President will
veto any bill congress may enact re-
storing any military privileges to the
negro troops taken from them by ais
recent order. He will not approve any
congressional investigation n the
action taken by congress will in no
W AoS ~ his u
have his order carried out to the let
ter. Before he took any action il
the matter he made a painstaking
Investigation, and his conclusions
have been given to congress AID the
country in a message.
So determined is the President in
his attitude that he would even well
come an effort at Impeachment rath-
than be defeated. He will go to
the fun length of his constitutional
authority in carrying out ais rders
as commander in chief of the army
and navy that the negro troops be
mustered out without honor. and not
be permitted to re-enlist except thru
the methods he has indicated.

A SCHEME.

The Record is informed that the
people of Hagerman have raised a
large sum of money for use in in
ducing the legislature to form a new
county from parts of Chaves and Ed
dy counties, with the town of Hager-
man as the county seat. The north
line of the proposed county would
be near South Spring, and the south
line just above Artesia. On the 9TH
er nand, Artesia has also raised a
sum of money to use with the object
of forming a new county with Arte-
STA as the county seat, and leaving
the town of Hagerma1 in Chaves
county.
Postmaster Boyd, of Lake Arthur,
who was in town today, says that
the people OF that section are oppos-
ed to both schemes. Roswell people
also should be interested in defeating
proposition.

ArtesIan Well Report.

In his report to the Secretary of
the Interior, Governor Hagerman in
cluded the following report of. Arte-
sian Well Inspector w. A. Wilson:
"The law creating artesian districts
and providing for the appointment of
supervisors was approved by the COY
ernor on February %, 1905, AID be-
came a law on March "a, 1905. Dis
trict No. 1, comprising Chaves. Eddy.
and Roosevelt counties, was created
and l was appointed supervisor on
April "a. 1905.
There are no artesia1 wells in
trict in Chaves and Eddy counties is
about 60 miles long and about 10
miles wide. At h north end it is
relatively narrow, but to the south
widens somewhat. 1t comprises about
600 square miles, the greater part of
which lies along the west side of the
Pecos River. Tine wells vary from
$50 to 1,2O0 feet in depth, and the flow
from 20 to 5000 gallons per minute.
There was no inspection made in
the first quarter; l was delayed in
procuring instruments, but finally
started the inspection with a gage
that had been used by the Geological
Survey, which on the arrival of the
new instruments was found to be in
correct, reading from 1 to 5 pounds
too much.
The time in the first quarter was
used in getting up a list of wells and
their location, having forms printed,
as prescribed by law.
An organization was formed among
some of the well owners to resist the
payment of the annual license fee of
SIS on each well provided by the law
to pay the cost of inspection, on the
ground that it vas unconstitutional.
The matter has gone up to the SUI
court of the Territory, the sTer-
ritory getting a favorable decision in
the district court.
This agitation has made it nard to
enforce any provision of the law.
Since the Law has gone into effect 8
people have been forced to cap their
wells, and a large number of those
sary supplies to complete their wells.
The well owners are awakening to
the necessity of seeing that their
wells are properly cased and that the
water is not permitted to waste. A
proportion of the water furnish
by the wells in this district has
been wasted in the past owing to the
very crude methods used in irrigation
This, however, has been remedied to
4 large extent, and will continue to
as the well owners become |
with irrigation.
The records show that there were
525 wells at the beginning of the
n 423 at the close, showing |
L gain of 100 ellis There were z
wells that quit flowing entirely, leav-
ng a net gain of SO wells.
The pressures remained practically
he same in the upper part of the
district for the whole year those in
he lower part showing an increase |
I the third quarter and a decrease in
he fourth quarter.
the line separating the p from
he lower part passes somewhere be-
Hagerman and Lake Arthur.
here are not enough wells in that
to decide definitely where the
'oint of separation begins.
