TARIFF-MADE FORTUNES

The Philadelphia Record discussing
the millions left by the late tin-plate
multi-millionaire w. B. Leeds, shows
how such fortunes are made by the
tariff, thus:
Under the Democratic tariff OF
1894 there was a duty (too high, in
fact) OF $50 a ton on tinplate. But
that was lot enough to crafty the
greed OF the combined manufacturers
and through their representative and
attorney in congress John Dalzell,
they secured an increase OF so per
cent, in the duty in the Dingley tariff.
The tinplate association had sent out
its corruption agents with abundant
supplies of money to defeat Demo
cratic members of congress who re.
sisted it's rapacious demands, and it
claimed its reward. For every article
the tinplate trust produces, includ-
ing the empty dinner pail, American
consumers must pay tribute to mo-
nopoly. The duty is, in fact, pro-
hibitory. During the year 1907 the
importations Of tinplate amounted to
64,705 tons, or the value of ~$4,462.522.
Blu all this goes back under draw
back duty as covering of meats, oil,
fish and other American exports.
Foreigners get the benefit of the
drawback, and American consumers
continue to pay an exorbitant tribute
to the trust, n of the especial fav-
orites of Republican Legislation. Is
there any hope of a reduction OF
duty on tinplate should a Republican
majority be elected to the next cong
hess? Not the slightest"

The question of disposition of

very little consideration by the Re-

The Surveyor Generals office
handles this matter and Charles l..
Deadly, present incumbent and candi-
date for reelection, is the man who
has protected the best interests Of
the land purchasers of the State since
he has been connected with that
office-14 years.
Under the laws Of Nevada a man
may buy State lands on deferred pay
ments with interest. The interest
rates on these payments has been re-
duced by the Democratic party as
soon as 1t was known that such a re-
duction would not prejudice the in
come of the State and cripple its
affairs.
There are q large number of land
locations and purchases and the Sur
veyor General keeps close track OF
these SO that no conflicts of title shall
arise In the future through mistakes
In entry or record of locations and
payments.
Charles L. Deadly has been in the
Office as subordinate and chief for IA
years. In all that time 1t Is claimed
for him that he never made a single
mistake. The records OF the District

TEST EXCHANGE OF
TICKETS AND ADS

Chicago, April 4.-Testimony by sew
eral advertising managers OF maya
zines concerning the exchange of ad-
vertising space for railway transporta-
ton with the Chicago, Indianapolis &
Louisville railway vas taken here be-
fore a special commissioner appointed
by the United States circuit court. All
the witnesses testified that the rates
for advertising are subject to frequent
variation, and this. the attorneys for
the government claim, is the real point
at issue. 1t is charged that the rail
road is violating the interstate ecom-
merce law by its transactions with the
magazines. the contention being that
the variation in magazine rates makes
the placing of a fixed value upon such
advertising impossible, and that there
fore the granting OF railroad tickets In
exchange for it forms a discrimination
in violation OF the interstate commerce
law.
The testimony will be used in draw
ing up a statement of facts upon which
legal arguments will be based in a suit
for injunction which the government
has instituted against the railway com
pany in an effort to restrain 1t FROM
continuing the practice of payingi for
advertising with transportation.

SZECHENYI'S UNCLE
WARNS AGAINST
RACE SUICIDE

Budapest, April Elm the Hungarian
parliament Count Aladar ~Szechenyi.
the and uncle OF Count Lads
laus. husband OF the former Gladys
Vanderbilt, has spoken against race
suicide. said Count Aladar:
Let is be generally understood
among the people that the question OF
race suicide is not q matter OF jest, but
of the greatest economic Importance.
To talk fippantly OF race suicide is a
most dangerous undertaking. Here we
are trying by reforms and laws OF
many kinds, to insure supremacy OF
the Magyar race; but SO long as n
one-child system prevails In Hungarian
families, as il does how, all our reform
efforts go for naught.
'The birth rate Is falling off wherever
Hungarian is exclusively spoken. I'm
less race suicide is stopped and stopped
at once. the very existence of the Mag
var race is threatened. The One-child
system is a worm gnawing at the thou
nd-year-old tree of Magyar land.
Lest we drive out hat worm the proud
tree of IA national existence will decay
and die
In accordance with Count Aladar's
motion, parliament ordered the minister
of the interior to make a thorough in
vestigation of the charges Of race sui
eide brought by Deputy S~zechenyi.
Count Akadar's own recommendations
are as follows:
The taxes OF families having only
one child TO be increased 20 per cent
The taxes OF families having sew
eral children to be decreased CORE
spondingly for each child.
The Inheritance tax OF a single child
TO be higher than the tax imposed ON
families where there are several chit
dren."

TWO YEARS YOUNGER
THAN TEDDY THOUGHT,
HALE IS MADE JUDGE
Succeeds loChren at Head OF
Federal Court in Mime
sota---Neison Active.

Washington. April 4-W. +. Hale is
the new federal judge in Minnesota,
succeeding Judge William Lochren.
The president. consented 10 his ap-
pointment after an hours session with
Senator Nelson, of Minnesota. The
president tried TO bring NJ. ID. Purdy
forward as a possibility, but Senator
Nelson adhered TO his purpose of press
ing Hale, and finally the president
yielded.
On good authority il may be said
that the president was induced To yield
because Senator Nelson convinced him
that Mr.. Hale is g. years of age and
not GA or So. as has been frequently
stated.
The story of how Hale mas always
been thought to be two years older
than he really is was brought TO the
presidents attention.
1t seems that Mr.. Hale, at the age Of
is. sought to enlist in the army dur
ing the civil war, and hung about Fort
Smelling for days and weeks with that
purpose in view. The enlisting officers
refused to accept him. because he was
under age, but finally they said, seeing
his persistence, that if he would state
that he was IS, and would have a
guardian appointed. his parents being
dead, they would accept him.
Hale thereupon said that he was rs,
and a guardian having been named, the
enlistment was made. and Hale started
away to war.
Mr.. Hale has an application for a
pension pending before the pension bu-
reau here and in the application and
accompanying papers his real age is
set forth. These papers We're shown to
the president, by way of removing his
prejudice against Hale, which was
based OH his age. The president has
held that NJ man should go ON the fed
eral bench who is not in a position to
serve from 10 TO IL years before reach
ing the retiring age. This difference of
two years i'm favor of Hale so nearly
met this objection that the president
had no great difficulty in yielding when
Senator Nelson laid the case before
him

FOUR MILLIONS A
YEAR NOT ENOUGH
FOR THE KAISER

Berlin. April Am authentic report is
In circulation here hat a bill soon will
be introduced in the Prussian diet raising
the civil list of the emperor. This list
now amounts to So, 100000 a year, which
sun is paid the emperor as king of Prus-
STA, and not as German emperor, a posi-
ton which carries no salary.
The explanation offered for raising the
list is the increased cost of living. which
bears particularly heavy on the royal
house because a large number of children
and other persons are dependent upon the
purse of the monarch.
In this connection it was learned today
that the reports that the emperor lived
beyond his income and often called upon
rich friends for temporary loans are in
correct. On the contrary, his majesty up
TO several years ago saved each year a
considerable sum from mis- income and in.
vested it for his children.
