Strangely enough in all the dis
 cussion, oral and printed, that there
 has been over the Garfield oil report,
 it is just beginning to come to the
 surface that one of the most serious
 sources of discrimination practiced by the Standard Oil company was by means of published tariffs" without rebates and in themselves perfectly legal. With all the hue and cry that has been raised over the matter and with fresh and more disgraceful revelations both as to the oil and the coal roads coming out every day, this is somewhat remarkable over sight. or taking rebates and for the use of secret tariffs, the company can be punished. And there will un- doubtedly be prosecutions instituted by the department of justice in a little while. But the discrimination that has been the worst of all, has been perfectly legal and there is no punishment for it. The matter, how ever, has been called to the attention of Senator Deliver and he has an- nounced that he will see to it be- fore the bill is finally passed that there shall be incorporated in it some provision against the continu- ance of such a condition. Those in- terested will recollect that the pub lished accounts of the oil report simply mentioned that there were "discriminations by means of pub lished tariffs." With that reference the subject dropped. But these dis criminations had been going on for twenty years and they were one of the most hurtful features of railroad carriage practiced against the inde- pendent redner. The plan was beau tifully simple.

and as I glanced at her for the nrst time she had ceased to look radiant she only looked a woman-and by the time we had passed another meadow (where the fiuffs from kiss-me-quicks rose and mixed with the sunbeams. while distant wild-rose hedges sent all their sweetness by the breeze) the step-dancing BoJIogne fish-wife sug- gested a Corregio Madonna in a white linen costume by Reilly.

Senator Hale last week went after the government clerks with consider able violence. He declared that they were set of mendicants on the boun- ty of the government and not satis- fled with the good things they had were like Oliver Twist, always asking for more. He particularly objected to the granting of annual leave either inside or outside of Washing ton. Now this was a tirade that may be of some effect in his next campaign. But it was decidedly an injustice to the most of the clerks. The annual leave and sick leave pro- visions are abused in some instances and in some of the departments, par ticularly in the patent office. But they are not so as a rule and such sweeping denunciation is decidedly unfair, says a friend of the over- worked clerk.

Of all the pleasures of youth
there is none so enjoyable as
counting. TO WOO a fair young
girl who has bright laughing eyes
dimpled cheeks and ruby lips,
whose voice is like the sweetness
of honey and whose form is di-
vinely graceful is a joy TO a boys
heart.
We have all read about the
American boys in the early days
who paid SO much TOBACCO for
their wives, but over in Siberia
they have a custom more peculiar
still. Whenever d young man
desires to court a girl he must
work at some trade a whole year
TO prove his worth, and when
the time arrives for him to bring
the important matter to an issue
he goes to the home of the girl,
and the house is arranged with
various apartments separated
from each other by curtains. An
old woman with q stout stick in
her hand is stationed by each
curtain, and he persues the girl
through all these rooms and as
he passes under each curtain
the old woman gives him a whack
across the back. By and by he
overtakes the girl. She consents
to become his bride, and the
ceremony is over.

Republican Inconsistency

The Republicans of the pres
ent day have forgotten what the
founders of their party declared
in 1860, when they were seeking
the approval of the American
people. At that time they did
not attribute the growth and
prosperity of the nation to pro
tectionism as they now do, but
to the true causes of both, that
is to the union of the states and
the consequent freedom of trade
among them. They declared:
That to the unionof the States
this Nation owes its unpreceden
ted increase iii population, its
surprising Development OF ma
terial resources, its rapid aug
mentation Of wealth, its happi-
ness at home and its honor
abroad"
This wise declaration has been
studiously avoided in all its res
cent platforms and all the exact
contra ry has been asserted. In
1892, tlle pnty said: we main
tain that the prosperous condi-
ton of our country is due to the
wise revenue legislation OF the
last Republican Congress-
For a generation or more the
advocates of protectionism who
CONTROL that party and plumber
people of all parties, have as
cribed the continuance OF pros
perity to it's own legislation;
thus giving the lie direct to the
Republicans of 1860. What
ingrates and fakirs the Repub-
Iican bosses are?

is charged with attempted bribery
and a warrant has been issued
for his arrest. The accused man,
who will be prosecuted by Dis
trict Attorney Gilbert, a leading
candidate for the office of attor-
ney-general, announces his own
candidacy for third term. The
complaint against the secretary
is made by State Insurance Com
missioner Host, who charges
that Houser in 1903 offered to
contribute $1,000 to the Repuh-
lican campaign fund if the COM
missioner would render decision
favorable to a certain company.
But why has the latter waited
three years before prefferring
charges? Was it hoped that
Houser might raise the ante?

In the hearing before the
House Committee on Agricul-
ture, June 7th, respecting the
Roosevelt charges against the
packing houses, DIR. Melvin,
chief Of the bureau of animal
industry, was asked incidentally
to state the number of govern
ment inspectors in Chicago. He
answered II veterinarians, So
stock examiners and IS taggars
making 181 in all. In the whole
service, he said, there are 1888.
What have these 1888 Federal
officers been doing for the past
seven years? Have they all OF
any of them, been in the pay OF
the packers? Have they been
concealing the truth for the
sake of graft? If so, are they
any worse than the bulk OF Fed

"does not look to be more than
thirty years Of age, and had he

mistaken for a theological stu

sistent that their packing houses

tariff on beef and cattle and
so give the people competition
with the trust and thus reduce
the price to a reasonable basis!
