Mr.. Walter B. Frost, editor OF
the Manufacturing Jeweler, is the
author OF a letter on "Tariil' Re
vision" in the Providence Sunday
Journal Of this week, in which he
deals with the "glittering generali-
ties" of the subject in very light
and airy manner. The hackeyed
phrase "let well enough alone" is
the key note of Mr.. Frost's argu-
ment, but between the lines can be
read the fear that Mr.. Frost and
other"stand patters" seem to have OF
tariff revision, namely that if the ia
brio is disturbed at all, it might
mean detliment of the schedule in
which they are interested. For
example, the tariff on hides may be a
little too much, but if that is adj
justed the present tariff on ewelry
may be disarranged, consequently let
the whole thing alone. The argu-
ment is good from personal stand
point.

Special to Evening Teller.
COTTONWOOD. Idaho. May 21.-
An attempt was made upon the life
of colored porter known as Jim late
Saturday evening by shooting through
the window Of Peterson's saloon from
across the street
Jim was sitting in chair in the
lobby room of the saloon when the
bullet crashed through the window
and was embedded in partition wall
near his head. The shooting created
intense excitement, and it is believed
the party or parties engaged in the af-
fair are known, but not sufficient EVIL
derce has yet been secured to make
an arrest, and 1t is believed the mat
ter will be dropped.
1t is stated the trouble started In
row in the Idle Hour saloon several
nights ago, in which Jim was con-
spicuous figure. To eliminate further
trouble, the police have ordered tht
colored man to leave town.
