Long Overdue Steamer Is
lowed Into Port.
MACHIIVERYBROKE
The Disabled Craft was Picked Up
by German Ship and Brought
to Hamilton, Bermuda.

Hamilton, Bermuda.-The overdue
steamship Ponce, which left
Porto Rico December &c for New
York, was towed in here Friday by
steamer which picked her up disabled.
At 4 O'Clock in the afternoon of De
cember 80 the tail-end of the shaft of
the Ponce broke and she drifted at the
mercy of the wind and current until
the night of January Z, when she was
sighted by the German steamer Eliza
beth Rickmers, Capt. Walsen, from
Philadelphia for Japan. At 6:30 D. m.
the Ponce sent up a rocket and a few
minutes later the German vessel alter
ed her course and headed for the dis
abled steamer. The Rickmers reached
the Ponce at Z p. M, but as the night
was dark and the weather stormy,
Capt. Walsen decided to stand by the
Ponce until daylight. At 9 o'clock in
the morning Of January the Rick
noes got two haWSers on board the
Ponce aud soon afterwards began to
tow her towards Bermuda.
The two steamers were then $40
miles from Bermuda. The tow proved
to be a heavy strain During the night
of the 9th both hawsers parted i'll a
heavy gale and the Rickmers hove to
the rest of the night. The morning of
the 10th the German steamer sent two
new lines on board the Ponce, which
were got ready for towing, and both
vessels anchored off Bermuda at IL
o'clock Friday morning
Barring the discomfort and anxiety,
the passengers suffered no inconveni-
ence, the food supplies being ample
All the passengers express themselves
as being grateful for the kindness of
the officers of the Ponce.

GermanY's Mistake.

Germany cannot produce the meat
necessary to feed her people, except
ing at great cost; hence the recent
application of high tariff on meats
was decided mistake. The British
are anticipating an advantage from
that mistake. In several of the great
meat producing Australian colonies
investigations have been made as to
whether large cargoes of frozen meat
could be shipped to Germany. But
Australia is not the only meat pro-
ducing country.-Kingston On. Y.)

Far and Near.

If a farsighted man like James ].
Hill had been senator in Massachus-
etts, we should doubtless have had
Canadian reciprocity long ago; but
with a Lodge unable to see beyond
Gloucester Point, and with no mind
above herrings every move in that di-
rection has been blocked.-N Y. Eve

There are some men who are so far.
sighted as to overlook things close at
hand, while seeing things at long dis
tance 1t may be that the Great North
ern president is of this class of far
seers. He can see much gain to the
traffic of his big railway system in the
privilege of hauling in Canadian prod
ucts to the American market and
hauling out American manufactures to
the Canadians. But can he see that
Canada does not want and will not
have the unrestricted competition of
manufactures from across the border?
Can he see that the only reciprocity
acceptable to Canada is that which
involves the free sale of her natural
PicNd1to III INC - HIJSu EOldlCS. SdH
he see that to grant this one-sided
privilege to Canadian farmers would
so disgruntle our own farmers as to
turn them against the whole system
of protection? That in such case there
would no longer be any protection for
anybody? Perhaps Senator Lodge sees
more clearly than President Hill these
nearby things, and for that reason op-
poses Canadian reciprocity. If so,
that would be very good reason for
his opposition.

Tariff Not RESPONSIBLE.

If you are obliged to pay more for
your shoes, harness, etc, than former
ly, do not let our friend, the enemy,
make you believe that the protective
tariff is responsible for the raise; it is
the increasing demand of the manufac-
lures that must be held responsible

other than footwear was not antici-
pated few years ago, nor do we be-
lieve that the nc~- uses are realized
by many who anXiously await return
to former values. The price lists in
free trade England show that leather
had advanced in that country fully as
much as in the United States.-Van

A BUSINESS BULLETIN.
r. G. Dun 6 Co.'s Weekly Review of
Trade Conditions.

New York.-R. G. Dun & Co. S
Weekly Review of Trade says:
Trade returns are irregular because
Of the erratic weather, unseasonably
high temperature restricting sales of
heavy weight wearing apparel at some
points, while business is most salts
factory in colder sections.
Freight blockades were relieved to
some extent. but there is still much
complaint of tardy deliveries. Mer-
camille collections are also more
prompt in some sections than others,
but there is unanimity regarding the
large amount of forward business on
the books of manufacturing plants and
general confidence in the future.
Building operations have been
greatly facilitated at the east by open
weather, maintaining activity in mar
kets for materials beyond the GUS
tomary date. Prices of all commodi-
ties declined almost l per cent. during
December.
Some steel mills are now able to
make deliveries more promptly, be-
cause specifications are less frequent,
especially in respect to structural
shapes, and few plants are rolling
billets in the structural mills.

The Merchants View of Tariff Re.
vision.
Not Now, but When?

No suggestion of tariff revision ap
pears in the presidents message this
year. The business of the country and
those who earn and spend wages are
thankful for that. The short session
of congress, which ends March 4, 1907,
is much too short for tariff revision,
and it will not be undertaken. That
much seems certain. Neither Is tariff
revision likely to be undertaken at the
session of the siXtieth congress imme
diately preceding the election of 1908
That election will have an important
bearing upon the question of tariff re-
vision. At present some of the most
aggressive and progressive" among
the Republican revisionists are not
very far from a disposition to Join
hands with the Democratic minority in
forcing revision. Just now they are
reluctant to take that step They may
be more willing in the sixty-first con.
gress If 1T is hard to keep squirrel
on the ground it is almost as hard
to keep a progressive" revisionist
from embracing an opportunity to
tinker the tariff. Last months vote
at the congress elections has been
construed by the "progressives" as an
Endorsement of their views. Present
indications do not to say the least.
point to any diminution of the pres.
sure inside of the Republican party
for tariff revision.

NOT UNTIL DECEMBER
Will the Republican National Commit
tee Meet to Select CorteIyou's
Successor.

Washington, ID. CA conference
over republican national committee af-
fairs was held at the postoffice depart.
ment last night Those participating
were Postmaster General Cortelyou,
the retiring chairman of the commit
tee; Harry S. New of indianapolis,
the acting chairman, and Elmer
Dover, secretary of the committee.
Later Mr.. New said: IF Vice Pres
ident Fairbanks allows his name to be
presented to the next republican ma
tional convention as candidate for
the presidency, and | take it for
granted that he will, he will receive
the unanimous support of the Indiana
delegation"
When asked if a special meeting of
the national committee would be
called to accept Chairman Cortelyou's
resignation, the acting chairman re.
piled:
"The next meeting of the national
committee will be held in Washington
next December, at which time Mr.
Cortelyou's successor will be chosen
and the time and place of holding the
next national convention will be de-
cided upon"

WILL NOT REVISE TARIFF.
No Reason to Disturb Industrial Sta
bilty and Prosperity.

Our morning contemporary in Des
Moines ought to know that the last
election did not turn on the tariff and
1t ought to realize that the present
congress will not revise the tariff, for
the best reason of all, that not even
the president asked for such action in
his message. That paper is simply
seeking to continue the strife within
the party in the state. 1t can pro-
mote nothing else by it's course There
is the greater work of regulating cor
porations and curbing the trusts,
which must be done outside of the tar
iff, according to Mr.. Roosevelts own
conception of politics and duties.
While engaged in these important
duties, there is no reason why the
industrial stability and prosperity
should be further threatened by tariff
legislation. The country will be very
fortunate If it completes the reforms
undertaken by the administration
without disturbing our present pros
perity 1t is that more than anything
else that the president is desirous of.
TO keep injecting issues which are
not germane to the present. work in
hand is merely to promote distractions
and disturbances.
Let us fulfill the presidents pending
reforms and then we will be better
able to judge how much reforming
there ought to be on the tariff And
rest assured of one thing, and that is
that If all the duties were lowered by
half, there would be the same dissat-
isfaction and the same complaints
against it. No system of taxation can
ever be so finely equalized as to give
satisfaction to all. A tariff is merely
compromise and the next compEo-
mise would not be any more satisfac-
tory than the present 1t is idle to
expect it-Cedar Rapids Republican.

Fashions in Women.

There are fashions not only in wom-
ems clothes but IN women themselves.
A certain style of woman becomes
the vogue. Lydia Languish reads SEN
timental novels, dissolves in tears at
moments notice, and finds elope-
ment necessary spice for marriage.
A century later Lydia's clinging type
goes out,-with "leg-o'-mutton sleeves,
and the athletic girl takes the cen
ter of the stage, with her short skirt,
her long stride and her loud voice.
The dominant note Of the early twen-
ueth century woman is her ability to
tiful, blonde, strawberry" or bru-
nette, she must be pleasant. To listen
We'll is not enough she must have
quick wit and clever tongue,
which should be kind as well. The
dull, the quiet, the simpering are out
of fashion, and even the athletic girl
must look to her laurels, lest the en-
tertaining one prove her successful
rival with the eXacting sex. One mod
ern freak of the mode deserves soon
to pass away, remarks the Youths
Companion. The mod ern woman re-
fuses to grow old. At first sight that
seems q worthy ambition. But with
the Punishment of caps and shoulder
capes something of the gentleness,
'grace and wisdom of old age has also
been lost. In place of those lovely ac-
compartments of advanced years we
find other things which make their
bearer nondescript travesty of
youth whose hat, complexion and
conduct are as gay as they are unbe-
coming. Somebody once said that
the finest thing God ever made was
a beautiful old woman. 1t behooves
'us not to let her dignity and calm,
her poise, sagacity and charm go out
of fashion.

To Work Tonether.

An address before a woman's club
is not the place, nor is the president
of the National Federation of Wom-
ems clubs the source, from which
men look for understanding of their
work and methods. Nevertheless, a
vote of cordial appreciation and COM
lmendation has lately come from that
place and that source. The man
makes the best clue-woman," said the
speaker. Men ges things done, and
they are so fine and loyal" Did the
president wish to imply that women
are not loyal? No, but she argued
for more catholic spirit and
broader tolerance among women-a
greater willingness to take one an
other for granted. Here, indeed is
one respect in which men have oppor-
tunities to excel remarks Youths
Companion. Their business life brings
them into contact with men of all
sorts of religious beliefs, of various
nationalities and all shades of cultiva-
ton and attractiveness; and the club
life and political life of men is
marked by the same characteristics.
The effect is a growth of tolerance
which makes for practical achieve
ment as well as for comfort and the
amenities of life. Many men find
they can agree to work with others
for one thing in which they are inter-
ested, although they may differ radi-
cally on other things. THAT other
woman, that woman who is so differ
ent from you, who is little less cul-
tivated, a trif1e impossible, said the
president of the federation, she, too,
belongs to this movement, and we
must let her in

Most Of us have had the experience
OF belonging to some literary society
or club or debating circle which con-
sisted of little more than a name and
list of members. For such at least
there is a suggestion in speech by

ton OF Women's clubs, and perhaps
some societies that really engage in
literary work may profit by it, too

speare clubs. Grasp, if you can, the

that town are dirty, and esthetically
the place is dead. There is no care
for child life, no interest in sanitation.

Shakespeare is a large issue. But
