The Iron Mountain Inspection.

The report Of the Railroad and
Warehouse Commission made
yesterday concerning the condi-
tion Of the tracks Of the Iron Noun
tain railroad confirms all that Mr.
WE Williams, the Posts repre-
sentative who personally inspected
these tracks, said concerning them.
The conditions upon the Iron
Mountain speak for themselves.
They stand themselves a monu-
ment to the carelessness Of the
management Of that railroad, and
lit is not necessary here and now to
even attempt to express the just
condemnation which an honest
public entertains for such railroad
management. Suffice it to say
that a railroad company which
would permit such conditions
should be compelled to forfeit Its
charter, and a Railroad and Ware
house Commission that would toll
crate such conditions should be
repudiated by an honest public.

MONEY IN APRICOT PITS.
Substitute for AImonds-Bie Profit In
Them for BaIearic Islands.

A recent increase in the price Of
almonds has caused new tide OF
economy and much money is being
made in the Balearic islands in the
Mediterranean off the coast of Spain
by the sale of the kernels of apricots,
says the New York Sun. There is a
huge demand for them in England and
Germany, where they are used as a
substitute for almonds in candy and
in cheap grades Of puddings and
pastry
The fruit is cultivated in the Ba'
learic islands on an enormous scale to
be preserved in various styles. Until
recently the stones, when the pulp
was removed from them, were treated
as refuse. Children pick out the
kernels and they are dried and
packed for shipment after the regular
preserving season is over, thus pro
longing the wage-earning period Of
the people.
Last year Majorca alone produced
$4,000 cases OF apricot kernels, weigh
! ing about 200 pounds each case. There
are both bitter and sweet kernels. The
price Of the sweet ones rose from
about SIS case in 1906 to about $2'
last year. The bitter ones are consid
erably cheaper.

that they should, they nevertheless
find it impossible to offer even an
extenuating excuse for such rail-

The Oil Trust is Protected.

Commissioner Smith finds that
the Standard Oil favors the foreign
buyer and uses monopoly profits
here to undersell competitors
abroad. Manufacturers universal
ly are doing this. The steel cor
porations, the combination OF
typewriter manufacturers, the
watch trust, the sewing machine
combination and all the rest OF
them get inordinate profits at
home by means of the tariff, and
then sell at cut prices to foreigners.
The relations of the Standard Oil
to the tariff are not so direct as
those of these other trusts, but
they exist, and they involved us in
tariff war with Russia about six
or seven years ago.
Petroleum is on the free list with
the provlso that II any country
collects a duty on our petroleum
an equal duty shall be levied OF
it's petroleum. sUnder this pro-
vision the treasury department
collected duties on products made
in England, which does not ta1
our oil, from petroleum produced
in Russia, which does tax our oil
Count Witte was at that time min
lister of finance, and he protested
against the duty, and failing tt
get it removed he retaliated by
raising Russian duties on our iro1
and steel.
The Standard let's no foreign OF
get here, and it sells it's oil abroad
cheaper than at home. A Repub-
llican administration ought not tt
complain of this; it is an essentia
feature of protection. philadelphia

king of beasts but one that was guar

Arrived at Linden Hills, Mr.. Nelson
let Henry out into the back yard and
simply waited.
At 1880 on the first morning New
foundland dog as large as a small
garage walked into the yard to step
ON the flower beds as usual and to tip
over the garbage can. The lion saw
the dog enter the yard and the dog
just barely saw the lion.

made by Henry eating the dog. At

two plain dogs. Everything that came
into the yard collided with the lion
and 10, it was not.
Mr. Nelson was so joyous over the
experiment that he could not go tt

and felt good In six weeks the dogs
were either all in or were avoiding
