RATE BILLS FOES eLUNDeR
Have Failed on Every Point ON
Which They Have Tried
10 Score.

The tables have been turned effective.
~ against the enemies Of the railway
rate bill In the senate. The bill has
been reported on time, 1t has the right
Of way In that chamber, and Its friends
are even more encouraged at the favor
able outlook for II than they were two
weeks ago, or even n week Ago., says
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat. Mr..
Aldrich and a few of the other railway
senator's supposed that by deposing Dol
liver as the rate bills champion In the
senate and by putting the bill in charge
OF Tillman they would hit the president,
hit Dolliver, and discredit the bill
| among the Republicans by making II
| appear that It was a Democratic meas
ure.
On every point they have failed. The
| president and Senator Dolliyer are de-
lighted that the Hepburn bill, which
they favored, has been reported to the
senate. The railroad senator's have
shown their encouragement and despe-
ration by the tactics which they
adopted. The Republican friends Of
the bill have been reinforced by some
wavering senator's, who resent the at
tack which has been made upon their
party by Aldrich's attempt to make 1t
appear that the bill Is a Democratic
measure. Tillman himself, who was
expected to fall into the Aldrich trap
and feel vain over the undeserved
honor which the handful of Repub-
lican obstructives cast upon him, is
treating the matter seriously, and IL
determined to do all he can to push
the bill to enactment.
There is no politics in the rate bill,
but 1t was framed by a Republican
representative, passed by a Republican
house, has been reported to a Repub
lican senate, and will get enough Re.
publican votes in the senate to pass II
even IL the Democrats were to oppose
1t. To this extent the rate regulation

AMI JUST.
Proposition Which Should Receive
the Immediate Favor Of
Congress.

The need for a permanent, nom
partisan tariff commission to recon-
mend to congress from time to time
such changes as may be in the inter.
est Of the public was never more ap-
parent than now. We are confronted
by q very serious condition. Within
a very few weeks the new German
tariff will 60 into effect, which dis.
eliminates very seriously against
American exports. 1t is a flexible
tariff, which ours is not, and can be
reduced to a minimum rate to those
governments which are in a position
to force such a concession. A bill has
been prepared to impart the quality
Of elasticity to the American tariff
1t does not provide for any reduction
Of the schedules of the Dingley tariff,
but fixes a uniform maximum rate 25
per cent. higher, which will be en-.
forced against the products Of any
nation which discriminates against
United States goods.
This is a perfectly just and equita.
BILE proposition, says the Brooklyn
Times. Its adoption would disturb
or derange no American industry, nor
would 1t affect our trade relations
with any nation except Germany
which would speedily find 1t to its ad.
vantage to place the United States
on the favored list. 1t should be
passed in congress without hesitation
or debate.

Wandering wag.

In a good many western states where
one railroad has gobbled up most Of the
available r~ight-of-way land in the Inn
mediate vicinity of a town, the rail-
roads subsequently building thither
have to build their stations at the
nearest available point to the place.
An instance of this is found at the
town of Oswego. Kan. The other day
a travelling post office inspector from
Philadelphia was getting of of a Frisco
train at that place. When he had
driven a mile or so from the station,
and was beginning to get into the
struggling suburbs of a village, he
called out to the driver of the 'bus'

HAD HEART PAINS
A Critical Case Of rheumatism Cured
By Or. Williams Pink Pills.

While Mr.. w. s.. Geisel, of No. 1876
East Coates street, Moberly, Mo-. was
steadily working at his trade in n foun-
dry at that place, he became the victim
of an attack Of rheumatism, and his ex-
p~erience Is hat Of thousands who are
compelled to work in similar surround
ings. He describes his situation MS fol-
lows:
"I had been at work for q long time
In a foundry where I was exposed to
dampness. First my feet began to hurt
and to swell, then my knees and my
shoulder joints began to be affected in
the same way. Finally 1 could not walk
without great difficulty and suffering
and had to stop work altogether. My
appetite was feeble and I grew very pale
aud weak. / began to have pains about
my heart and It fiuttered a great deal.
] became greatly alarmed about my con.
dition. My mother knew about the vir-
tues of DIR. Williams Pink Pills, as they
had given her back her health when she
was nearly wasting to death, and when
b found that they were good for rheu-
matism too, she began to give them to
me about q month after I was attacked.
That was In the early part OF March,
1908, and by June they had driven away
the pains and swelling and had restored
my appetite and color. Then I felt
strong enough to take up a line of out
door work and now, in October. 1 re-
gard myself as entirely we'll and I am
about t go into a foundry again at st.
Louis"
DR.. williams Pink Pills also cure
other diseases %springing from inn
pure blood or disordered nerves, such
as sciatica, locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis and all forms of weakness in
male or female. They may be had at
all druggists or directly from the DIR.

length his brow cleared, his lips parted
in a smile, and he laughed at some idea
that occurred to him. He evide2tly
relished his little joke, for the t.ext
week the mere sight of Tonti or Renee
in the distance vas sufficient to net
his sides a-shaking. The v OF his
jest was so enjoyable that it kept Elm
in excellent humor at the next couf.cl
meeting, so that for the first time since
the arrival Of Duchesneau there whs
absolutely nc friction. His merPi.
ment ven followed him into sleep, and
he found himself awaking with D
laugh Oh more than one occasion.
He sent for Renee one day, and.
taking her hand in his great palm. said
kindly: ma chere, I have been con-
sidering the request you made me. and
am persuaded that you are right. l
believe indeed 1t is for your best happi-
ness that you should go. I will send
you to Montreal with the u that ac-
companies you, there to await the ar
rival Of the rest Of the expedition that
I am dispatching to the relief of La
Sale, and which will be large enough
to protect you. Then" he added with
a twinkle in his eye, II know you will
not find In the woods another rascal as
base as you believe M. Tonti to be-"
To Tonti he said in farewell:
81 have been thinking over your
predicament of mind, and al give you
no solution now. Time will determine
all things and set matters right. Now
Danish all thoughts of love, and back
with all speed to your comrades. l
have made arrangements for the most
important load of all to be shipped
from Montreal. When you arrive there
you will receive 1t. Guard 1t with your
very life, and convey it in your own
canoe, as 1t will prove indeed to be a
treasure for La Sale"
He watched Tonti's figure grow
smaller and smaller In the distance,
and finally turned away with a sigh
and the enigmatical remark. II have
done the best l could. If they do not
find themselves. it will not be my
fault"
AS they padded up the stream on the
return voyage, the men kept time to
an old chanson that they sang Justify.
Tontl did not Join in the song. Els
mind and heart were. filled with .
strange perplexlty. He had been uh-
able to see Renee again during hiA
stay In Quebec. and rumors had
reached him that she had left again
for some distant point on an errand Of
mercy. Her refusal to recognize him
still ranked In his heart. He knew
not what he could have done TO merit
her disapproval. He had intended
speaking to her ofLa SAlle and telling

wit Of nm Australian Bishop.

A certain bishop, happily still with
us, though retired from the cares OF
his colonial diocese, was famous
throughout Australia no less for his
quaint cenceits than for his spiritual
vigor and eloquence. When one OF
the clergy described a wealthy parish
Toner as a careless, Indifferent sort OF
a man, who cared only for his garden
during the day and his billiard room
at night, he said: Garden! Billiards!
Don't call him careless; he evidently
minds his peas and cues" To the
rude question Of a dissipated passen-
ger board ship, why do you wear that
thing?" "a CROSSE he replied: For the
same reason that you wear a red nose

thinking that she would be content -
talk 10 him. and thus, although II were
to discuss the ~excellencies OF his rival,
he would find a certain sweet satisfac-
ton in being with her. Then, too,
what would his comrade think when
he told him that he had seen her, and
yet brought no message from her2 A
feeling of WEAKNESS passed over him,
that WEAKNESS Of living that comes at
times to every man, as the result of
bafIled endeavor or hope deferred, that
clogging effect Of our imperfect human
nature upon the e~ver-buoyant spiritual.
But the thought Of the patient, stead
fast heart awaiting him, that wavered
not nor faltered, although surrounded
on every hand by foes open and secret,
by the giant obstacles Of nature, and
the checks Of chance and circumstance,
| quickened Tonti's fortitude and pur-
pose, until his paddle cleft the water
and tossed its glistening spray as gal
lantly as any voyageur.
Renee waited at Montreal the arrival
of the party with a feeling OF RELIEF
and happiness. The voyage from Que
bee had been made without discomfort,
and as long as the leagues were left
behind her spirits had risen, and she
had given herself up to the enjoyment
Of the healthful, vigorous life about
her. At length It was announced that
the fleet had arrived, and her escort
was in waiting. She %thereupon re-
paired with her companion to the
riverside to embark, with a light
heart, full OF hope for the long Jour-
ney before her. Upon nearing the de-
signated place she caught the CLINT

that had already started, and saw the
one remaining craft that awaited theil
arrival. On reaching the landing, sht

OPINIONS OF

OThe present volume of our foreign
trade is practically double what it was
ten years ago under the Wilson-G German
reform tariff. AS a matter of fact,
our country is some billion dollars or
more further away from non-intercourse
than it was before the Dingley tariff
went into effect.-American Economist.
UIt is because of the "stand-patters"
that we are to have no tariff war with
Germany. They were in a position to
make it improbable for any country to
inangurate a tariff war. Germany
counted the cost of exclusion from the
American market. She sized up the
stand patters" correctly and decided
not to try conclusions with them. 1t is
a war maxim that Providence is usually
to be found on the side of the heaviest
artillery. The 'stand-pat" guns were
the biggest. Hence thsre was nothing
