Vermilion parish will shortly
experiment with the transportation
of schools. The Milton School,
which is located near the line
OF Lafayette and Vermilion
parishes, has been selected as the
one most favorably situated for
the trial, as the school boards of
both parishes will contribute tow
ard the expense. 1t is estimated
that there are $50 children of

TARIFF..OR RECIPROCITY.

The Department of State reports
that the tariff struggle impending
with foreign nations cannot bt
postponed unless the United States
is willing to make reciprocal con-
cessions on tariff rates with the
countries involved in the con
troversy. That is, our tariff rates
must be reduced if we expect to be
treated as a favored nation, other
wise the prohibitive rates of duty
that Germany, France and other
countries are about to put in force
against those nations that also ex-
act the highest rates will be also
charged on imports from the
United States. The report says:
alt was not denied that govern
ments like France and Germany
would be willing to make material
concessions, but they insist as a
condition precedent to such action
that the United States should be
prepared to show q similar degree
of generosity. This latter phase
of the case, it is said, will continue
to be the stumbling block to all
negotiations and that unless the
United States overhauls it's duties
on European imports in such a way
as to give them a greater chance in
this country it will be futile to at
tempt to secure tariff favors from
abroad"
WHAT will our standpat states
men do about it? Will they see
our export trade with those
countries destroyed by their i'm
passable tariff walls, because they
will not reduce the tariff that
protects our own monopolists-the
trusts and combines? There is no
doubt that the tariff dilemma fore
told by the Democrats confronts
Che Republicans, for if they refuse
10 revise the tariff, considerable
foreign trade will be lost, on the
other hand if they attempt to
"tinker with the tariff" the whole
scientific structure of protectionism
will tumble about their ears and
they would lose the campaign con-
tributions from the trusts which
they now enjoy.

Had a stronger one than the late
senator Hoar, of Massachusetts
who, before his death held Mr.
Fillman in the highest esteem
and on several occasions eulogized
him as man of great worth and
service to his country because Of
his rugged honesty, his unflinch-
ing courage and his ability to de-
tect and expose wrong or injus-
tice regardless Of who might be
hurt by the exposure. Indeed il
may be said that some years be-
fore Senator Hoar died he become
an ardent admirer of the character
Of the Southern people as whole.
He had during the late years OF
his life devoted much study to the
great past that Southern men had
played in the history and govern
nent of the country, and in a
memorable speech in the Senate
some years before his death he
paid a tribute to the character Of
Ihe men of the old as well AS the
new South, saying on that oc-
casiOn:
"They have some qualities which
! can not claim in an equal degree
for the people among whom my
self dwell. They have an aptness
for command, which makes the
Southern gentleman, wherever he
goes. not peer only, but a prince.
They have a love for home; they
have, the best of them, and the
most of them, inherited from the
great race from which they came
the sense of duty and the instinct
of honor, as no other people on
the face Of the earth. They have
above all, and giving value to all,
that supreme and superb constancy
which. without regard to personal
ambition, and without yielding to
the temptation of wealth, without
tired, and without getting
diverted. can pursue a great object,

generation after generation.
