Representative William Alden Smith,

of a most unusual petition which was
sent to the committee on ways and
means, of which he is a member. 1t

1--WE, the undersigned manufacture
ers of wooden shoes, most respectfully
petition and request that the import
DUTY on wooden shoes be increased so
that your petitioners may be able to
sell their own products at a reasonable
price and at such prices as will en-
able them to make a respectable liv-
ing. They represent that the said
articles can be imported into this
country and sold at a price for which
YOUR petitioners cannot afford to make
said articles and sell them at a reas-
enable profit The cost of material
and labor are considerably greater in
this country than in the Netherlands
and Europe.
your petitioners firmly believe that
there should be a duty placed on
wooden shoes of at least 125 percent,
so the industry may be protected
properly and encouraged"

GEN, CURRY HAS A HARD TASK
To Subdue The Pu|ij:nes Outlaws
In Samdr.
ARE CONSIDERED DESPERATE MEN
ARE SAID TO HAVE RETRoGRAD-
ED INTO A STATE OF
BARBARISM.
ARE CONSIDERED DESPERATE MEN

WASHINGTON, D. c., April A.
Though the Philippine census fails to
disclose the number of "Pul1Janes' on
the island of Samar who are now be-
ing pursued by the constabulary under
the lead of Governor Curry in retalla-
ton for the attack upon his party
recently, it is estimated by the offlc-
ers in the war department who have
been stationed on the island that there
are not to exceed $500 of these people
in the mountain Businesses. They are
not, as commonly supposed, race OF
themselves but, as explained by one
of these army officers, the Pulijanes
are really only Visayans who have
gone wrong. They are people who
were once under the Spanish religious
influence, but have refrigerated into
a state of barbarism; have taken to
the mountains and live in large part
by preying upon the toilers in the ag-
ricultural sections Thus they are like
the ladrOneS in LucOn, and the brlgand
Moros. The Spanish government
records mention them as "Tulisanes,'
which is said to be the vocal equiva-
lent of the native word "Pulijanes,
while the church denominates them
"remontados," which means a people
that have once practiced Christianity
| and lived by honest labor, but have
"backslid."
In the opinion of army officers here,
it will be no easy task for Governor
! Curry to subdue these "Pulijanes,' be-
cause they are like the American In
dams in the Bad Lands and are very
much assisted by their women, who
travel back and forth into the towns,
bringing out supplies of rice and other
necessities despite the watchfulness OF
the American troops and native
guards.

KING CORN DAY IN THE SCHOOLS
Bio Celebrations Were Held Every
where in Oklahoma Territory
Today by the Children.

GUTIERREZ, Okla, April 4.-Here,
as well as in all corn states north of
the Ohio river, King Corn Day is OBJ
served today in the public schools.
The growing of corn and the selec-
ton of good seed for raising corn
formed the subject of talks delivered
to the children in all public schools.
To teach the children how to select
the best seed they were asked some
time ago to make tests of seeds at
their homes and to report the results
to their teachers today The material
thus collected in the schools will be
summed up by the statisticians of the
department of agriculture and will be
communicated in condensed form tC
the growers of corn throughout the
corn belt Young Folks Grain clubs
will be organized in all corn states
and next fall each school will holt
a harvest festival with competitions
for valuable prizes. Colorado and
Minnesota have already waited $3.50
each for distribution in the form OF
prizes among the children taking in
terest in the corn growing industry.

To Lose City Hall.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, April 4.-Unless the
city hall hastens to obey it's own build
ing laws, it will be closed and police
will be placed at it's locked doors. The
building commissioner yesterday gave
the hall forty eight hours leeway in
which the legally required signs in
dicating the exits and the direction of
fire escapes must be installed. If
Saturday morning as he enters the
hall on the way to his office, the COM
missioner cannot see the indicators in
place he will proceed to use his police
power to close the doors and keep
them closed until the changes are
made.
Il am in earnest about this" Mr..
Bartzen, commissioner Of buildings,
declared. 1T seems that the city Of
ficials have always considered that the
laws do not apply to the city hall.
They will find out they are mistaken.
The situation is dangerous and must
be changed"

Dominion for Injuries Received
in a Railroad Wreck.

HALIFAX, N. S., April 4.-The case
of O. M Olmsteady versus The King
was taken up for hearing before the
exchequer court this morning, Judge

ly injured, that he lost a diamond
valued at between $500 and $500, and
other personal property. He also
claims $4,000 damages for loss of time.
The case is a test case, as several
other passengers who were on the
train have filed claims for damages,
and whether they will be tried or not
depends on the outcome of the pres
ent suit.

RATES REMAIN UNCHANGED.
Proposed Re- classification Of Missouri
River Is Not Authorized.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, April 4.-Missouri
river jobbers will not get the expected
reductions in freight rates from the
Atlantic seaboard. Executive officers
of the western roads at a meeting
yesterday practically decided that the
loss to the roads would be too great
made.
The committee to which the matter
adversely to the reduction and point
ed out that the proposed reduction
would involve a loss of over IS, 900, 900
annually, and on this showing there
was no one left to advocate the adOp-
ton of the proposition. Even the Mil
waukee withdrew it's support.
This does not get the roads out of
the troublesome situation that has
confronted them for some time. Chi
cago shippers, whose interests would
have been placed in danger by the
adoption of the proposed reduction,
now have made a counter proposition.
They assert they are unfairly dealt
with in the matter of these same rates
to Missouri river points. Gross dis
elimination is practiced against them,
they allege, by the practice of max
ing the Mississippi river and not Chi
cago the basing point for those rates.
