that about $4,000. 00J more in
wages would be distributed each
year To the shoe workers of my
State.
American manufacturers are
not benefited to any considerable
extent by tine duty of % per cent.
on manufactured boots and shoes.
We will part with this duty will
ingly in order to obtain free hides
and free sole leather. Take away
the duties that prevent us from
obtaining sole leather at the
same prices paid by our foreign
competitors and We will not only
hold our own markets, with or
without duty on shoes, but we
will invade foreign markets on
an extensive scale.
A gentleman who represents an
Indiana district i'll the national
House of Representatives, re-
Gently delivered a stand pat cam
paign speech from the floor OF the
House in which he asserted that
the present tariff increased the
manufacturing cost OF pair Of
shoes but a fraction of cent.
He also asserted that l did not
represent the tariff views of the
people of my State. To dismiss
him briefly, and TO show you how
little his assertions were founded
upon facts, | will say that since
the year 1897 the increase to. my
company i'll the price of sole
leather alone i'll a single pair of
shoes amounts to III cents or
about 40 per cent. Az near as
can figure it, the effect of the
present tariff on hides and sole
leather causes the people of this
country to pay $50, 600, 600 a year
more for their foot wear than
should be necessary. AS to
whether the people of my State
agree with my views on tie tariff
question, | respectfully refer all
inquiries for facts to the election
figures Of my State for the last
presidential year. My canvass
for the office of Governor was
made solely on the tariff issue.
The result of that canvass in a
strongly Republican State should
be sufficiently convincing as to
the attitude of the great masses
of the people on this ques-
ton. The handwriting on the
wall may not have been observed
by Indiana Congressman as yet;
but every Republican Congress
man from Massachusetts is today
an ardent tariff revislOnist.

Westminster Grants Franchise

Railway.

The Common Council of West.
minister, recently granted the
Washington, LeGore and Gettys.
burg Electric Railroad and Power
Company franchise for the nSe
of certain streets of the city in
the construction of its main line.
BY the terms of the ordinance
the company Is granted permits
sion to enter the corporate limits.
The company is to erect a rail-
way station within its corporate
limits, and its property is to be
free from municipal taxation for
80 years, and is then only to be
assessed at So, 600 per mile. The
franchise is not to remain in force
after the expiration of eight
years unless work shall have been
commenced upon the construction
of the road before that time.
The company projecting this
line proposes to construct a road
to be operated by electricity gem
Grated by water power. j. W.
LeGore, who is principally inter.
ested in the project, has a water
power site on the MOnocacy River
of extraordinary proportions. 1t
is located at a point where the
construction of a dam 40 feet
i'll height and less than 800 feet
in length will create a lake Gov
ering fully a mile of surface aud
extending up the river as far as
the Western Maryland Railroad
bridge over the stream. Mr..
LeGore has secured the title to
about all the land to be covered
by this lake. The capacity of
the power thus created will be
far beyond that necessary to OPP
crate the railroad in question,
and the company cOntemplates
the construction of a number OF
lateral roads. The surveys for
the Washington, LeGore and Get
tysburg Bailroad have located
the line on very easy grades, and
the project is attracting much at
tention.

DEATH OF FRANK RHODES.
End of the Active Life Of an
Old and Respected Citizen.
..Governor" Rhodes is dead.


This Intelligence will strike
bone most keenly 10 all those
who knew him either in youth
or old age, who played with him
in the sunny days Of his school
life. or were companions in the
after times. when age brought on
it's infirmities and fortune its
uncertainties. Time cannot be
reckOled, from his earliest youth.
when he was not associated with
his native city in some indus
triouS way, and his affiliations
extended through countless rami
tications, including business rela-
tons and fraternal associations.
Few men were closer to the
people than "Gov." Rhodes. and
from the very nature of his Occu
pations he came daily in contact
with old and young, and few are
they who do not pay devoted
tribute to his memory. lie was
a sturdy, energetic and talented
type of "a an, and his vigorous
constitution stood him well until
the final summons came.
Four months ago he was
stricken with apoplexy and since
then he has fingered uncom-
plainingly under kindly ministra
tons.
Always active in anything that
he undertook, and of a kindly,
genial disposition. he lived his
life as he saw it. and his many
warm friends will miss him very
much.
Frank I. Rhodes, or as he was
familiarly called 1.-The Governor"
died last Saturday afternoon, the
Goth inst, aged Il Years. He
was a son of John and Minerva
Rhodes and married in 1886 a
daughter of the late Gideon and
Eliza Mantz, of this city. He
was carpenter by trade, but
later became interested in other
occupations.
lie was affiliated with many
frater al societies and was one
of the oldest Shriners in the
State. For over forty years be
was sexton of the Reformed
Church of this city, and his rec
objections of events in the earlier
history of the city were most III
teresting.
He was an ardent firemen and
for years was chief engineer of
the Junior Fire Company. He
was the leader Of the old Rhodes
Band, and of late years was sew
eral times manager of the City
Opera House. He was handy
man in everything that he under
took and in his school days he
was a playmate of Admiral Win
field Scott Schley, and the latter
always looked him up when he
visited Frederick.
His wife, who is very much Of
an invalid, survives him, to
gether with three children, e.
Mantz, Frank b., and Miss Ada
l., Rhodes. His funeral took
place on Tuesday and was in
charge of Columbia Lodge of
Masons. His body was taken TO
the Reformed Church where it
reposed until the services, which
were held at 3 O'Clock p. m.
Many of the fraternal societies
to which he belonged turned out
in bodies and the church was
crowded with friends and ac.
Qnaintances. The services were
simple and Impressive. Rev.
Eschbach. with whom the de
ceased had been associated for
over thirty years, made touching
remarks and the choir sang his
favorite hymns.
AT the grave the Masonic
funeral rites were observed and
beautiful floral tributes we're
finally placed upon the mound
that marked the last resting
place of this much respected
citizen.

PART TWO
FREE WOOD PULP.

We want free wood pulp for
many reasons. The duty of from
Sl67 to s. per ton is indefenSible
from any point OF view. 1t is
largely responsible for our great
newspaper trust, with its monop.
oily of our spruce woodlands and
of the water power available to
this wood land. Canada is COW
cred with spruce from Labrador
to Alaska. Its supply is mex
hauStible. 1t also has ample
water power at hand. IL can pro
duce pulp cheaper than it can be
produced in the United States.
The tariff tax on pulp protects
the trust and greatly increases
the cost of paper. 1t is tax on
knowledge and civilization.
FREE LUMBER
We want free lumber and want
it badly. We need it in our bus
mess; we need it in our homes;
we need it To save our forests and
streams. There is plenty Of lum
Der in Canada and the lum Der
and the lumbermen there are anX-
iOuS to trade with us. The pres
ent tariff laws forbid it, except
at prices that increase the cost
of lumber from 10 10 20 per cent.
This cost is added TO the cost of
our homes, mills, stores and fur
niture. Since the passage Of the
Dingley bill. i'll 1897, the prices
for lum Der have gone up nearly
100 per cent, according to Brad
streets. While it Is true that
the duty on sawed lumber is only
about 81 per thousand, it is also
true that this duty is all effective
in New England and that 1t IN
creaSes the cost of lumber there
by fully 81 per thousand.
The estimated value of the
buildings annually constructed
IN Massachusetts is $50, 600, 00O

THE DUTY ON HIDES.

In 1879, after % years of free
hides, a duty Of 10 per cent, was
put on cattle hides, other hides
and skins being left on the free
list. This 10 per cent. duty, 80
per cent. higher than even the
war duty levied from 1861 to
1872, was put on despite the pro
tests of boot and shoe manufact-
ureIs. There is a good reason
for believing that the duty on
hides is of no particular benefit
either to small or large cattle
dealers, and it was generally
understood at the time til t the
hide duty was levied for their
own especial benefit. During the
last few years the price of cattle
has declined materially, while
the price of hides has increased.
1t is essential that we import
large quantities of foreign hides.
Our imports for the fiscal year
ending June 3Oth, 1905. were
$14, $40 G2S. We do not produce
enough to make our own boots
and shoes. About 20 per cent.
of all the leather made in this
country is made from imported
hides. Could these and sole
leather come in free of duty we
could not only make cheaper
shoes for ourselves, but we could
increase our export business many
fold. Fer, strange to say, We
now export more than $4,000, 600
worth of shoes year, bandi-
capped as we are 10y what We con
tend are onerous, unnecessary
and unjust duties.
In the boot and shoe industry
of this country we pay the high
est wages paid on earth; but
when efficiency and product are
considered, we pay no more for
labor. 1t is the needless tariff
tax on our raw material that pre-
vents the development of the
foreign trade in the shoe bust
ness.

NEGRO FORCES CHECK
But His BunginS Work is Discovered

Arthur King. negro employed at

at the Greensboro National Bank this

by the teller before the check was
cashed. The police are looking for
him this afternoon. but he had not

Mr.. Waldo Porter, the teller, was
suspicious of the negrOe as soon as he
looked at the check. The negro had
done his work in a rather bunglesome
manner, and it was seen that the name
of Prof FOust had not been written
