TOLD OF THE TITLED.

Lord Charles Beresford is said to
be contemplating reentering the field
of politics.
Sir Walter Raleigh was responsible
for the introduction of the potato into
Ireland. 1t was a native of Chile and
Peru.
King Alfonso and Princess Ena are
both descendants of Mary Queen Of
Scots, as is every monarch in Europe
except the king of Sweden and the
sultan of Turkey.
The sirdar, Sir Reginald Wingate, is
an excellent linguist, speaking, besides
several European languages, Arabic
and Hindustani. His hobby is the
collection of dervish weapons.
Lord Leconfeld, who has just cele-
brated his thirty-fourth birthday, is
nephew of Lord Rosebery. He served
with distinction in the Boer war; owns
about 100000 acres of land, and has
a rent roll of $450,O0O yearly.
Sir Edward Clarke, the brilliant
member of parliament who is making
his presence felt by denouncing the
Idea of tax on meat or corn, started
as a jewelers. assistant in his fathers
store. Now his income as a lawyer
is $150,000 a year and he is one of
the few men who have refused a
judgeship.
Sir John Fisher has been promoted
to the rank of admiral of the English
fleet. He practically created the pres
ent British navy, and has impregnat-
ed it with the scientific spirit, and it
is due to him that the naval officers
of to-day must in addition to being
seamen, be gunners. soldiers, engineers
and men of science

DEMAND NOT POPULAR.
Change of the Dingley Schedules Not
Called for by the People
in General.

No Republican from Wisconsin,
Massachusetts, Iowa or anywhere else
who has assailed the tariff this year
has voiced the view of the Republican
party. The Dingley act has been in
operation nine years. 1t has had
longer life than the Wilson-G German
law which it displaced Also it has
lived longer than did the Mckinley
act, which the Democrats repealed
when they put the Wilson-Gorman
law on the statute book So, likewise,
it has been with us for more years
than was the act or 1888, which the
Mckinley law succeeded. Dingley's
tariff has had a longer career than
any other law in it's field since Nor
rilIs, which was passed in 1861. But
the Dingley act continues to give a
good account of itself, says the 81.
Louis Globe-Democrat. 1t furnishes
both revenue and protection, and the
Wilson act provided neither the one
nor the other. Nothing that any Dem
ocrat has ever said against the Ding
ley law has been as severe as Cleye-,
lands denunciation of the Democratic
Wilson-Gorman act, the party per-
ffdy and party dishonor law" which
Cleveland cCntemptuously refused to
sign, but let it get on the statute book
through the expiration of the ten
days time limit. There is no popular
demand among the Republicans for
the repeal or material modification of
the Dingley tariff. On the contrary,
any tampering with that act at this
time would arouse Republican hostil-
ity all over the country. No Repub-
lican who assails it can long main
tain his standing in the party. A
Democratic assault on either the tar
if or the flag in the Philippines in the
congressional canvass of 1906 would
insure Republican majority in the
elections which would make all the
off-year Republican margins since
1894 look narrow.

TARIFF REPEAL NOT NEEDED
San Francisco Should Not Bs Re
built with Steel from
Abroad.

We do not believe San Franc Bco is
party to the cry for a repeal of the
tariff on structural steel while the city
Is rebuilding. There is no occasion
for such repeal, says the Pittsburg Ga
zette. American manufacturers can
supply the demand. Pittsburg mills
can do it and would set other work
aside If necessary that. rebuilding
should not be retarded. This at
prices hardly greater than would be
paid for foreign material If the tariff
should be removed. In a recent hear.
ing before the committee on merchant
marine and fisheries, Judge Gary,
chairman of the United States Steel
corporation, quoted the prices in this
country and abroad. By that state.
ment 1t may seen the export prices of
Great Britain Germany, France, Aus
tria and Belgium on structural shapes
range from $1.25 to $145, while the
American price is about $1.60 Add.
ing freight, the price, delivered, would
give no appreciable advantage to the
San Francisco builders, but might
take much money from this country.
President Roosevelt rejected foreign
contributions to the relief fund and it
would be a remarkable exhibit on the
part of contress to extend an invita-.
ton to foreign manufacturers to sup
ply the material for rebuilding the
city. While Germany is building it's
tariff Wall higher and is paying a
bounty on steel exports, TO enable her
manufacturers to quote low prices
there is no call for the United States
to open the door even in the face of
calamity. Great Britain is not in po
sition to furnish the material more
promptly than this country can, and
having a higher production cost and
no bounty, could not compete with
Germany in the bidding.
Should material be brought from
abroad it would benefit neither the
railroads nor the industrial concerns
which have given so literally to the
sufferers. All would come direct by
water in foreign bottoms. San Fran.
cisco would be ashamed to rebuild
with foreign steel. The members of
congress who introduced the bills de.
clare that they did so under the nN3.
apprehension that American mills
could not supply the demand. That
impression having been corrected,
there is just one proper course to take.
That is TO withdraw the bills and let
the matter drop. No hardship will be
imposed thereby on the San Francisco
rphuiIderc

Horseshoes, such as we have, are
also rather modern The Greeks and
Romans used to cover their horses
feet with fiber cloth in cold weather,
or when urging the horses through
muddy and miry places. Nero s
horses were shod without nails, but
with silver. His wife's were shod in
gold. The shoeing Of horses by driv-
ing nails through their hoofs was in
troduced into England by William the
Conqueror. But even in the middle
centuries horses were shod only on
special occasions, which was done more
for style.

A LIVE ISSUE CERTAINLY.
From Present Indications the Tariff
Will Be Much in Evil
dence.

If saying so would only make it so,
there would be much cause for gratffi-
cation in the opinion expressed by the
Pittsburg Press.
The tariff involves at most no
fundamental principle. 1t is merely
an administrative question, within
certain lines. Not even the most en-
phatic revisionists have the temerity
to demand free trade. All they want
is a readiustment of schedules. They
admit that the country is prosperous
and that the protective principle un-
derlying our tariff policy should not
be disturbed. Manifestly, then. the
tariff is a question which can and
will wait. There are a dozen other
matters more pressingly in need of
regulation. Tariff revision talk now
would induce sleep anywhere from a
crossroads political meeting to the
presidents cabinet"
Nevertheless, says the American
Economist, there is much tariff re-
vision talk going on right now. and
the takers are not talking in their
sleep, either. They,at least, are very
much awake. 1t is the published pur-
pose of the American Reciprocal Tar
iff league to secure the election this
year of the largest possible number of
Republican congressman pledged to
Immediate tariff revision. Cummins,
Guild, Foss, Mccall and the rest of
the 'progressives" will help all they
can. If this purpose should succeed
in, say, 80 congress districts-and it
will succeed in more than 81 districts
If the friends of tariff stability are not
alert-the way would be open to a
general attack on the Dingley sched-
ules. From present appearances the
tariff will be an exceedingly live is
sue in the campaign of 1906.

All the automobile endurance con-
tests are thrown into the shade by the
remarkable performance of Emil Boul-
hours, of Paris, who rode a bicycle
S15 miles and 291 yards in "a hours,
at the remarkable average rate of
"a hours an hour. When one consid-
ers the delays and the stops entailed
in such a race it means that for hours
the rider must have been pedaling his
bicycle at the rate of so miles an
hour, and sometimes even faster than
that. The strain on the system to with
stand this must be severe and certain
ly felt by the rider
