COULD NOT FACE THE FACTS.
Agitators for Tariff Revision Are
Heavily Handicapped.

The country has seemingly so much
to do and is SO prosperous that the
tariff question has been lost sight of
In some of the western states and in
Massachusetts political agitators have
worked during the past six years to
stir the people TO frenzied demand
for the lowering of import duties.
Their work appeared to be prompted
by political ambitions, but tariff rip.
ping would not stand the debate.
Hence the men who made such howl
about the tariff for time have turned
their attention to other things. They
could not face the facts of COM
merce growing at home and abroad.
No cause can be maintained before
the American people for any consid-
cradle time unless it is a just cause.
Hence the death of the anti-tariff agi-
tation. In Iowa, where the socalled
Iowa idea" was born, there is no.
body at the present time advocating
the lowering of duties; they are even
silent on the reciprocity question.
Reciprocity is a species of false pre-
betraytng one line of industry for the
benefit of another. Reciprocity in one
locality means a trade for the benefit
Of that particular locality regardless
of whose industry is destroyed. For
time reciprocity was popular, but when
the reciprocity of Massachusetts,
which sought to trade off the farmer,
met the reciprocity of Iowa, which
sought to trade off the manufacturer
there was surprise on both sides. And
both sides concluded they had better
quit. The tariff for the present is a
dead issue. The national Republican
convention. next year will declare I'M
equivocally for protection without
apology; viii also declare for reci-
procity in non-competitiye articles

GIVEN A JAIL SENTENCE.
TOR FOR HIS DAUGHTER,
WHO WAS SICK.
New York Court Says Fathers Ex-
cuse that He Had No Faith in
Physicians Is Not Valid.

New York.-Clarence w. Byrne,
who was recently tried and
convicted on charges growing out of
his failure to employ medical assist
ance for his 6-yearold daughter, who
died of pneumonia, was on Friday
sentenced to 80 days Imprisonment
by the court of general sessions.
Byrne, who is a salesman, was arrest
ed on a charge of violating a section
of the penal code which provides that
"a person who wilfully omits, without
lawful excuse, to perform duty by
law imposed upon him to furnish
food, clothing, shelter or medical at
tendance to a minor, is guilty of a
misdemeanor. The complainant
was Coroner Acritelli. The decision
was given by Justice Kean and the
whole court was unanimous for con
viction and sentence.
The defendants excuse for not
calling a medical practitioner during
his daughters illness was want of
faith in doctors and reliance upon
the efficacy of the religious faith to
which he belongs. The court held
the sole question before it to be
whether the omission to furnish nedi-
cal attendance under the circum-
stances constituted a lawful excuse" "

Psychic epilepsy has succeeded
brain storm as a medical term. A New
York physician has just been cleared
of the charge of brutally assaulting a
man and woman on the street on the
plea that he had been subject to at
tacks OF psychic epilepsy from child
hood, and that or recovery he had no
knowledge of what had occurred. Just
how the ailmept differs from ordinary
epilepsy is not made clear, but it will
undoubtedly prove to be convenient
malady in criminal procedure.

Characteristic.

In his recent speech before the
Pittsburgh chamber of commerce Gov
CuEmins said:
Il am for tariff revision and for
tariff reduction as a measure of JUS
tice to the buyers of protected COM
modities. 1t seems to me that we
have gone mad in our zeal for the
seller and have abandoned the buyer
to the tender mercies of monopoly,
combination and greed"
Consideration for the consumer and
justice for the buyer is orthodox free
trade doctrine. The trouble with free
traders is that they fail to remember
that in our country SO per cent. of the
consumers are also producers and 80
per cent. of the buyers are also sell
ers. With labor scarce, wages high,
savings banks deposits increasing at a
tremendous rate, and the per capita
wealth of the country mounting stead
fly upward year by year, it seems nom
sensical to be spouting about the
abandonment of the buyer to the ten
der mercies of monopoly, combina-
ton and greed; that is, it seems non
sensical for the Republican governor
OF great Republican state to be talk
ing that way in such hive of indus
try and production as Pittsburg.
Singular to relate, TIE man who talks
this free trade stuff is by some peo-
pie still recognized as a Republican
and a rrotectionistl

Great Britains employees compensa-
tion act has gone into effect, and
there is some doubt as to whether its
effects will be good or bad. Broadly
1t provides that an employe incapaci-
tated by accident shall receive so per
cent. of his usual wages while in
capacitated, but not TO exceed five
dollars per week. For death the com
pensation is $3.50 to $1,500. 1t is
urged by some that it will prevent the
employment of persons whom age or
partial infirmity make especially liza
BILE to accident, but that remains to be
seen. Many employers are taking out
insurance, which companies are issu-
ing against loss under the law.

The boarder who was a month be-

at the size of the heap cf mashed po-
tatoes the girl had brought him.
He was even more surprised when
he found folded paper in the centetr

But he didn't open it. He knew
what it was.
Carefully wiping it with his napkin,
he put it in his vest pocket and went
ahead calmly with his dinner.

THREE KILLED AT A CROSSING.
a Car on an Electric Railway Near
Jackson, Mich, Strikes an
Automobile.

Jackson, Mich A westbound
car on the Detroit, Jackson &
Chicago electric railroad struck an
automobile containing five Jackson
residents at Sutton's Crossing, about
three miles cast of here, last evening.
Mrs. Levi Palmer, Mrs. Emily Pulliver
and Bernice Oliver were killed, the
two last named instantly. Adelbert
Oliver, prominent business man of
this city, vino was driving the car,
was probably fatally injured, while
Mrs. r. A. Oliver, the fifth passenger,
escaped with less serious injuries, Mr..
and Mrs, Oliver and Mrs. Palmer
were taken aboard the electric car
and brought to this city, but Mrs.
Palmer d!ad before they reached the
hospital.
Two parallel electric railroad
tracks, the unused BOland line and
the Detroit Jackson & Chicago, cross
the country road at the point where
the accident occurred a house and
some trees hid the approaching car.
From the fact that the brakes on the
touring car were not set, it is be.
lieved Mr.. Oliver. who was driving,
did not see. the car Bernice Oliver,
one of the killed was Mr. divers
daughter. Mrs. Puliver was Mrs.
divers mother and Mrs. Palmer was

Cost Reduced by Protection.

The tariff on plate glass has at
least not prevented the reduction in
price of that article from $3.50 per
square foot in 1876 to so and 35 cents
per square foot at the present time
But the tariff on plate glass has per-
mitted the development of a very val
liable American industry, and the ex-
istence of this industry has had more
to do with lowering the. cost of all
plate glass to American consumers
than any other factor in connection
with that reduction. Principally ow.
ing to the difference in wages paid,
the cost of producing plate glass in
this country is very much greater
than in France or Germany, or else,
where in Europe These facts are re-
spectfully referred to those persons
in the Fifth congressional district of
this state who for local reasons are
asking for revision of the tariff in
behalf of plate glass. The protective
tariff has been good friend to the
American consumer of plate glass;

ALASKA
 IN OPERA

Hary Girard. who arrived in Nome on the Yukatan, comes to the northern country in the interest of what is des- tined to become one of the greatest operas which has ever been written in this country. to judge from the notices which have reached Nome from Seattle regarding it. The name of the new piece Is the Alaskan. it dealing with Alaska life and customs. Harry Gi- rard wrote the music for the opera. while Joe Blethen. one of the associate editors of the Seattle Times. is the composer of the libretto. The well known theatrical manager. John Cort, will take charge of the production of the piece. it being his intention to first put it on in Chicago and to later tour the States with long engagement in New York which is already scheduled.
 Mir. Girard has won much notice on the coast during the last two years. he being looked upon as one of the best critics and instructors of the west. While here he will secure parkas. ki- aks, umiaks and all of the articles which the Eskimos use in their every day life to be used in tre staging of the opera. Alaska life will be well represented.

 Marys Igloo has not been moved up to shelton, or Lanes Landing, yet as the condition of the trails will not permit and the water in the river is too high. Just as soon as it is possi- ole for the horses to pull the scows up the river the houses will be moved from their present sites.
 The post office at the Igloo has been discontinued by the government.

 James J. Mckay, the well known

 tor Jones in the proposition. The Me- Kay Hydraulic Mining Company was organized and tre materal for the
 construction of tre ditch ordered. Mir Mckay is the general manager of the company. and he will probably
 have the work of construction of the Noxapago ditch done by contract. If possible the waterway will be com pleted this summer. so that hydraulic elevators may be installed as soon as the snow disappears next spring. Senator Jones is one of the largest
