The EFFORT os Mayor Sweet
to put a stop to the system of
or aft in this city meets with the
warmest approval Of all good CT
items. The mayor takes the
right stand and should be en-
couraged in his work. The sus-
pension of a city official: pending
an investigation was the natural
outcome of the many stories
which were in circulation during
the past two weeks. 1t is said
that the Governor will be appeal
ed to in an effort to remove a
higher official for the same rea-
son.

Passing from the big map
on around the outside of
"Grassland,' one follows I'M
der the windows of the car
which when taken by the as
ISOLATION, over two years ago
was an ordinary passenger
cOach-ninty feet of heavy
plate glass. arranged in frams
or panels, six feet long. Each
panel bears the name of a
county, and back of the glass
in each frame are choice speci-
mems of grain and grasses in
sheaf raised in the county.
The decorative finish of he
panels shows a skill in the in
terweaving of goluen straw
and vari-colored grasses, that
has probably never before
been seen. Heightening the
effect of this work is the in
PRODUCTION in the panels OF
large photographs of farm
scenes and city views that
make "a striking background
to the clusters of wheat, oats,
rye, timothy and other actual,
fullsized products.
There having been an extra
one of the big plate glass
panels on the car, it is happily
utilized, the inscription under
it being ''The State of Wis
consin. Surrounded by the
luxul'iance of north Wisconsin
vegetation, as brilliant as the
artist could make it, a fine
picture of Agricultural hall,
at Madison, occupies the cen
ter, with corner photos of eX-
detrimental farmsin the north
counties.
Beneath the windows, also
in small glass panels, the
shelled grains of each county
are shown. At night. with
some sixty electric lights on
the outside, the beauty of the

But once inside! You are
then in real ''Grassland."
The arrangement is simple
and pleasing, and you fall in
to line, marching down a six
tv-foot aisle on one side and
back along another aisle of
the same length. A great
rack in the center of the car
first attracts you. It's top,
sides and shelves are filed
with fruits and vegetables,
each of the allied counties
having an equal sized section.
And such products! In a COM
paratively small space and

Of these counties fairly glows.

OF all sections of Kentucky. held Joint

Wednesday morning the State Grange
adopted resolutions condemning the
free distribution of seed aud'the same
afternoon the two associations. in Joint
meeting, adopted resolutions charac-
rerizing the distribution as a misuse
of public funds" and endorsing the at
titude of the senate and house commit
tees on agriculture. which have record
ed themselves against the appropria-
ton. The Kentucky farmers say they
want the money now practically wasted
in throwing radish and turnip seed
broadcast over the land. given to the
Department OF Agriculture for the De-
Yelopment OF agriculture. the acquisition
and distribution Of really rare and val
liable seeds, and the support of the

IMPORTANT QUESTION
ALLEGING IMPORTERS
The Supreme Court Will Decide at
What Stage the Duty on Tobacco
Becomes Leviable.

Washington. d. c.. October &c, CSpec-
iaI correspondence to the Republican,.
The Supreme Court of the United
States VIII hear arguments on Mon
day December 3. in an interesting case
affecting importers of tobacco. sugar.
wool skins hides and other articles
subject to evaporation. Some time ago
a firm of New York tobacco importers
received consignment of thirty-one
bales of leaf tobacco from Rotterdam.
the weight of which, at the time of its
shipment was 5,453 pounds DUTY at
the rate of S1.G5 per pound was levied
by the collector of customs at New
York on $500. showing that the bales
mad gained on the voyage g. pounds in
moisture For years the government
has levied duty on the weight of goods
on their arrival and not ON their weight
when Withdrawn from the government
warehouse and the bales were found
10 weigh eight pounds less than at the
time of their entry. a protest against
the action Of the collector in assessing
duty at the time of its entry was car
ried to the Federal Circuit Courts of
New York. which decided that as to-
bacco loses i'm weight through evapora-
ton Of moisture while remaining in
the bonded warehouse. importers should
not be treqUired to pay duty on its
weight on entry, but on its withdrawal.
The Treasury Department. through the
Solicitor General. filed a petition for a
review of the case. In view of the i'm
portance the court has decided TO hear
arguments in December with a view
TO deciding the question at the present
term, as more than 5000 protests of a
similar character are pending in the
General Appraisers Office at New York.
which cannot be passed upon until IL
is definitely known as to when duty
shall be levied on imported goods OF
the character above described. Should
the court decide that duty is leviabIe
on withdrawal instead of entry the
government win be called upon TO re-
fund the difference between the duty
levied on entry and what it should have
been on withdrawal The Treasury
Department claims that the loss to the
government on this account would
amount TO more than q million dollars
a year ON tobacco alone. while the other
side contends that it will result i'm larg-
er importatioHs OF tobacco and increas-
ed revenue.
