ONE ON FIGHTING JOE"
And He Quietly Paid for the Extra
Work He Made as Rep
resentativa

The late Gen. Joseph Wheeler, when a
representative in congress, was travel
ing IN buggy along q country road i'm
his district in Alabama. He overlook a
mail carrier groaning under the weight
81 an enormous sack of stuff, and invited
the man to take a seat beside him.
why don't you have horsef" said
the general. Il have had three ut diff.
ierent times" replied the carrier, but
they died. The work was too heavy"
You mean that the burden of the mails
wa was too greatw Eyes. that's just it.
There's = fool representative from
this district who sends out such lot
OF truck that the mails are loaded all
the time. This bag is full of such stuff;
books and SUCH" How much money
would buy you q horsel" asked the gen.
erai, feeling in his pocket. Horses are
high now answered the carrier. Il
couldn't get good one for less than
80 Fighting Joe counted out $50
Ihatn buy your horse" he said The
man gazed upon the money in aston'sh-
ment, and could not find a word to saw
before the general drove off.

CLEARINCS ARE ENORMOUS
Banking Business of Last Year Shows
the Virtues of Protective
Tariff.

Our bank clearings during the calen-
dar year 1905 were not only the great
est in our history but show most re-
markable gain over any preceding
year. The total amounted to the vast
sum of S413,S74,9 O2, 59S. This is S31,-
O0O,000,000 more than the preceding
year, and more than $25, 900, 000, 900 in
excess of any previous year. When 1t
Is considered, says the American Econ
omist, that our average annual bank
clearings under the Wilson German
tariff were only about $50 900, 00O. 900.
Ii will be seen what wonderful strides
our business transactions have taken
since the Dingley law went into effect.
Should our clearings for the present
year continue as they have begun they
will exceed 100000, 100000, the clear
ings for January being SIC, 1921 SOC, 279,
nearly $4,000, 900, 900 more than the
month preceding, which broke all rec
ords
II seems probable that the clearines
for 1905 will be four times as large as
those for 1896, only ten years previous
We are now doing just four times the
business We were doing under FREQ
trade. 1t would be folly. yes, a crime
TO interfere with a tariff that brings
such results.

NO SMASHING OF TARIFF.
Will Continue to Bring
Prosperity 10 the Amer
lean People.

Inc chairman of the ways and means
committee meets the issue raised by
Representative Mccall OF Massachus-
etts with regard TO the revision o. the
tarin at this session of congress. Mr..
Mccall, in a letter TO Chairman Payne.
alludes 20 conversations he has had
concerning tariff alterations. in which
ne has explained the attitude of Re
publican members of the Massachusetts
delegation and has called attention to
the declaration OF the Massachusetts,
Republican state convention. Mr.. Nc
call, says the Troy Times. explains
that while the Republicans of his state
have affirmed their unswerving adher-
ence To the policy OF protection and are
opposed. to any changes that may tend
TO depress American industry or lower
American wages. they are OF the opin-
Ion that certain schedules might be
modified with beneficial effect. and Mr..
Mccall holds that this position is con-
sistent with the principles embodied in
the Republican national platform.
Mr.. Payne. raising no question as to
the sincerity of the Massachusetts, Re-
publicans, avows his own sympathy
with the announcement in the nation
al platform that there shall be read
justment OF duties only when condi-
tons have so changed as to demand
such alteration. The question is
whether such a contingency as the
platform contemplated has arisen. In
his view. and in that of the majority OF
his Republican colleagues in the house
OF representatives, upon whom must
rest the responsibility of action, the
time has not arrived when general
revision of the tariff shall be underta-
ken. The case is thus stated: While
there is a minority of Republican mem
bers who concur that the tariff should
be amended in some few items, there
Is smaller minority who believe that
any effort TO change the tariff should
be entered upon at the present session
of congress" Mr.. Payne takes occasion
to mention the abuse and misrepresen-
tation TO which the Dingley tariff law
has been subjected and against which
II has been vindicated by it's results
The statement is tantamount TO
declaration that there will be no med
uiihs Win the tarlH TOT the present,
and there can be little doubt that this
decision will receive the hearty acqui-
essence of the great bulk of the Ameri-
can people. They do not want the tar
if smashed" If they did they would
have plainly indicated their wishes in
the last election. On the contrary, the
people emphasized their preference for
protection and their hostility TO any
breaking down of the barriers raised
against foreign competition on our own
markets, threatening our industrial
prosperity and our wage schedules. The
country is busy and prosperous, made
so largely through the influence OF
protection. 1t is the part of wisdom to
let well enough alone.

LEPROSY CASE

A LEPER APPEARS IN THE COURT HOUSE AND ASKS FOR
 TRANSFORMATION.

Yuma, Arizona, Feb. 21.-Yuma is entertaining a distinguished visitor whose distinction is the possession of a well defined and unmistakable case of leprosy. And Yuma doesn't appear to be at all proud of the acqui- sition. Especially displeased are those residents of Yuma whose resi- dences are near the fire departments engine house, for in that place the ieper has been housed by the city au- thorities. A guard is kept over him night and day to prevent him from getting out, or others getting in, but this is not satisfying to the inhabi- tants of that section, who feel with cause that there is danger in the lep- CTS proximity.
 Especially is Captain B. A. Frazer. whose place of business and living room adjoins the building occupied by Pratt, indignant. He claims not only are his slumbers disturbed by the knowledge that he and his neigh bors are in ccpS+snf danger Of con. tracting the loathsome disease. but the situation Is rendered worse by the ieper's penehant for sitting up and talking to his iyeerer

dispatch from San Bernardino which appeared in the Los Angeles papers, was sent to Yuma from San Bernar- dino by the board of supervisors of that county. He created consterna- ton few days ago by entering the court house and declaring that he was a leper and desired transportation to New Orleans, where he had relatives who would care for him. His boneless hands. with distorted fingers, and his toeless feet bore out his statements concerning his disease, so, after he had declined transportation to Los Angeles, the San Bernardino officials gave him transportation to Yuma. He claims he thought 1t was to New Or leans.
 Pratt, or Papenu, appeared in the office of Drs. E.. B. and J. A. Fletcher side Wednesday night and announced his condition. The city authorities were notified and he was placed in the fire house.
 It is understood that the board of supervisors is not disposed to give him transportation to New Orleans or to any other point east of here. The superintendent of the territorial board of health has been notified by wire, and an effort will be made to compel the California town or county from which the leper came to take him back.

 Amendment intended to be pro posed by Mir Foraker to the bill of the House (H.

Amend by striking out section g of the bill and in lieu thereof insert the following:
 Section 23. That within thirty days after the approval of this act the governors of the territories of New Mexico and Arizona, respective ly, shall each by proclamation order special election to be held on the twelfth Tuesday after the approval of this act. Said elections shall be conducted in all respects, including the qualifications and registrations of voters, and the result ascertained and certified as near as practicable in ac- cordance with the laws of said terri | Nr.,-, r0fx sr1ar hn election of a delegate in Congress.

 event, this section and all succeeding sections of this act shall thereafter be null and void and of no effect, ex cepting that the appropriation made in section fl hereof shall be and re main available for defraying all anC every kind and character of expense
