OF the making Of shoes there may
be said literally to be no end, for prac-
tically all the S6,O0O,OO0 people in this
country wear them. The days when
considerable portion Of the population

REFORMING FOR GLORY

If further cumulative evidence were needed to prove that Francis J. Heney is a blatant demagogue who enacts the role of professional prosecutor for glory and employs the methods ot a shyster to win, it is furnished by his dictation of the election of James Gallagher as mayor of San Francisco. Gallagher is one of the eighteen con feSsed bribe-taking supervisors of the city and county of San Francisco who are now acting as Stool-pigeUns Of the reform" district attorney, Each one of them has been granted immunity for his aid to Heney in Scalping men who had nerve enough to fight.
 A few months ago when the Ruef gang designated this same Gallagher as acting mayor while Schmitz was in Europe howl of indignation went up from the Heney cabal. AS agent of Ruef he was uniJted for mayor. As the tool of Heney he is satisfactory.
 Ueney runs all his prosecutions like an actor on the boards. He is work ing for glory and in order to bring down men who have once amounted to something he makes deals with any cheap grafterwho will get on his knees and thus pay tribute to Heney'S diSeaS- cd vanity and egotism. He did this in Oregon. He is doing it in San Fran cisco.
 Shakespeare was thinking of such fellows as Heuey when he wrote:
 Man, proud man, dreSt in a little brief authority plays such fantastic tricks before high heaven as make the angels weep"

Seattle restaurants now give only two sinkers instead of three and the coffee cups have Shrunk in size. The Times goes further and asserts that they cut pies in five pieces instead Of four, but that Is plainly a mistake as no Seattle restaurant since the Spirit was born ever cut a pie in less than five pieces. It must be that the arcs of the sectors have been reduced from 72 degrees to 50.

duced there, and thus exercise over the consuming masses a power of tax ation and spoilation that means the enrichment of the few and the inn poverishment of the many. That is what high protection does everywhere. But Germany has been modernized beyond the ken of these old feudal lords. The ripping down of the tariff
 walls between the various States that followed Bismarck's confedera- tion was the chief factor that has placed Germany in the front rank of the worlds nations. Trade now is as free between all parts of the em- pire as it is between the States of our Union. Extending this vivifyinS principle to international trade, Ger many has conceived the plan of a maximum and minimum tariff system under the ultimate operations of which continental Europe will be freed of hampering trade restrictions and will be combined into commercial con- federacy against every high protec- ton nation.
 In the face of so threatening sit uation as this, declares the Washing ton Herald, it is little short of amazing that there should be in the United States and considerable body of in- telligent citizens unwilling to liberal ize our tariff system at the earliest moment possible. Unless something is done, and done within few years, we shall find oprselves hemmed in, our stupendous commercial energies atrophied for lack of room in which to play, our vast hOards of capital idle, and national stock of labor unem- ployed, and our great industrial fabric, topheavy now, and rocking under the burdens of overprotection, falling into black ruin.

Huntington, Aug. 12.-Taylor Hunt CT, who was returning here yesterday morning about o'clock on a freight train from Fort Smith, was set upon by footpads within the city limits. He was robbed of $14 and hurled from . bridge into Cherokee creek.
 Hunter was taken completely by surprise. He does not know how many men were in the holdup party, but he knows he was roughly treated and nearly lost his life. He was seiz- ed and held by some while others went through his pockets.
 After securing their booty, the high waymen hurled Hunter without cere- mony over the bridge spanning Cher okee creek The bridge over the stream is 45 feet and inches high. He landed on the bank of the creek, and was unconscious when found. In the fall Hunter sustained three brok- en ribs and was otherwise injured. His body was bruised from head to foot. There is no clue to the rob hers.

As was to be expected, the conservatives, or standpatters, in the Kaiser's legislative body suggested ob- jections to the arrangement, their con
