week-day-early in the morning and
again after business hours until bed
time. Also he spent the whole of
every Saturday and Sunday with me.
He developed astonishing dexterity
as a teacher, and as soon as he real
lied that | had no false pride and was
thoroughly in earnest, he handled me
without gloves-like a boxing teacher
who finds that his pupil has the grit
Of a professional. 1t was easy enough
for me to grasp the theory of my new

BE natural" But the rub came in
making myself naturally of the right
sort. l had-as l suppose every man
of intelligence and decent instincts
hasa disposition to be friendly and
simple. But my manner was by ma
ture what you might call abrupt. My
not very easy task was to learn the
subtle difference between the abrupt
that iniects a tonic into social inter
course, and the abrupt that makes the
other person shut up with a feeling OF
having been insulted.
Then, there was the matter OF good
taste in conversation. Monson found
as | soon saw, that my everlasting
self-assertiveness was beyond cure. AS

easier succeed in reducing my chest

TARIFF WAR IMPENDING.
A Crisis in the Attitude Of the Pro-
~tectionists.

Less than three months remain be-
fore the German maximum tariff rate
will go into effect against our prod
ucts, unless the German government
will again extend the time. We know
that conferences are being held in
Washington between Secretary Root
and Mr.. North, director OF the CEN
sus, who was head OF the commits
sion to Germany to try and patch up
an agreement, and now Baron Won
Sternburg, the German ambassador,
has been called into the conference,
so matters must be coming to a eli
max. It is announced that "it has
been made plain to Secretary Root
that owing to internal political condi'
tions in Germany the government of
that country cannot renew the order
now in effect extending to American
products the benefits of the mini
mum tariff rates." But probably some
other basis will be found for a new
agreement, as it is evident that Ger
many has nearly as much to lose as
we have by shutting out u meat
and breadstuffs, the prices Of which
are abnormally higher in the Ger
man empire. When congress meets
next December the stand-pat leaders
may be as stiff necked as the Ger
man protectionists in trying to pro-
hibit importations, and then will
come the tug of war. Either we must
reduce our tariff rates on enough ar
ticles to make it desirable for Ger
many to allow us her minimum tariff
rates or minimum rates must be
adopted, and the present rates would
be our maximum rates. The plan OF
the stand-patters to make the present
rates the minimum and add % per
cent. for maximum rates would force
Germany and other countries to put
in effect their maximum rates. Wher
the Republican national convention
meets next year it will be compelled
to take action and the usual glitter
ing g~eneralities will have to be lait
aside for more explicit declarations
AS our farmers must sell their sur
plus products, which cannot be est
mated until the crop is garnered, AMI
the German manufacturers can reduce
their output at pleasure, it woult
seem that the United States, If tn,
Republican pr~otectionists are to hav'
their way, will get the worst of 1t.

Plavinn at Reform.

The Nebraska Legislature has pass
ed an election bill which abolishes
nominating conventions for state,
county and municipal officers. The
press dispatch announcing the fact
does not give particulars of this re-
form legislation which must have
been forced by public opinion from
the Republican majority. The same
dispatch shows that the "old Adam
of graft still exists in that body, for
the dispatch adds: "The house in
definitely postponed the bill prohibit
ing express, telegraph and telephone
franks" The people Of Nebraska
will no doubt watch with jealous eye
those members who virtually declared
by voting to kill the bill that they
were ready to be influenced by free
express transportation, free tele-
graph messages and free telephones.
That Republican-controlled legislature
must be playing reform for effect
merely.
