Famous Guide Is Dead.

LOWER BRULE, S. D., April 2l.-
Alexander Rencanter, a famous In
dian interpreter and guide, is dead
from a stroke Of apoplexy. He knew
every foot of the Missouri valley

TAFT FAVORS WATERWAYS,
Newlands Bill Receives Endorsement
Of Secretary Of War.

WASHINGTON, April 2l.-Secretary
TAFT has endorsed the bill introduced
oy Senator Newlands of Nevada, pro.
viding for the appointment of an in.
land waterways commission, and for
the improvement and development of
a great scheme of inland waterways
throughout the country. No opinion
Ia expressed by Secretary Taft as to
how far the great power put on the
proposed commission in the matter
OF expenditure of money should be
limited.
The bill makes an appropriation of
$50, DOC, 900 to carry on the work and
provides for the issuance of bonds
when this fund should fall below CO..
100000. The suggestion of a limita-
ton on the commission is thought to
indicate some doubt in the mind of
the officials of the war department a.
the to wisdom Of placing too much
power in its hands.
Secretary Taft suggests that q pro.
vision should be adopted requiring
that the chief engineer of the army
shall be q member of the commission
and for the detail of military engin.
eering to the service of the commission
whenever such detail shall be consist.
ent with their military duties. The
secretary suggested certain changes
In the form of the bill to meet con-
stitutional and legal objections that
occurred to him.

Y RATES FOR ALL.

1t looks as if the decision Just rem.
dered by the supreme court knocks the
last prop from under the rebaters.
The case was that which involved
Armour, Swift, Morris and Cudahy,
who had obtained rebates from the
Burlington railway. These persons
had been fined Sl5, 900 each by the
lower court for accepting the rebates,
and the supreme court affirmed the
decision. The road is tied up with
them in the same ruling, and will be
punished for the same Offense.
This gives the Elkins amendment of
1908 to the interstate commerce act of
1887 a new validity and influence, says
the Globe Democrat. At the time that
the Elkins law was passed many per-
sons were skeptical about its enforce
ment. The national administration,
however, set Out to give it validity,
| aud in several cases has "made good"
The packers made q contract with the
Burlington which gave them favored
rates, and the courts have called them
to account therefor. Under the deci.
sion of the supreme court the published
rates of the roads become the lawful
rates, and the roads have no right to
give lower rates to favored shippers
for the same sort of service and under
the same conditions. The rates which
are duly published and posted are the
rates which must be charged to al,
patrons for similar service.
Not always do law and justice coin
eide, but they do 80 in . marked de
gree in this case. The anti-rebatins
law was passed in the interest of tn
square deal. 1t was intended to plac
all patrons Of the roads on the sam
footing. The wealthy were to have n
adv antage ove the poor in contract
, for similar work by the railroads
. Favoritism of all sorts was to be shu
out. And the law has accomplished 1t
object. No individual or communit
can have any special favors over ar
q other in q similar situation. The bi
Z packers will not be seriously embal

Home Hints.

A handful Of borax or four table,
spoonfuls of ammonia to a gallon Of
boiling water will clean windows and
paint without soap. For glass it streaks
less and polishes better.
Gunny sacks cut the same as carpet
rags and woven with bright colored
warp will make splendid rugs for the
kitchen. They will last for years and
are splendid for use in winter.
A plumbing hint is to never put rock
salt in traps. 1t is true that the salt by
absorbing moisture from the atmos.
phere will keep the traps full Of liquid
but the strong salt solution will attack
brass couplings and trap screws and
injure the glaze Of porcelain.

REVISING n TARIFF.

Democratic free traders evince con-
siderable encouragement because OF
the discussion among republican lead
ers of a possible revision Of the tariff
The fact evidently has escaped them
that the tariff as q measure of protec-
ton to the American manufacturer and
wage-earner ia q fund amental republi.
can principle aud that any revision OF
this or any other time when republi'
cans are in power would be in reality
q mere readjustment of tariff schedules
to meet shifting conditions. There is
no danger whatever of the republican
party reducing the tariff for the mere
sake of reduction, but there is a prob
ability of an Intelligent revision Of
the schedules to conform to certain
we'll founded demands.
If the leaders of the republican party
In congress are convinced that certain
reduction in tariff rates would be
advantageous to American manufac.
turers, consumers and wage-earners,
. those revisions can be made without
the republican party conceding any
principle of protection. Indeed, those
who are asking q REIMBURSEMENT Of
schedules are careful to make 1t plain
that they are not in favor of q whole
sale reduction or q general disturb.
n of the scheme of protection.
These claimants are entirely willing
that revision be postponed until after
March 4, 1909, in order that the whole
matter may be subjected to a thorough
preliminary inquiry into the condi-
tions of trade and manufacture.
In all probability the republican
national convention in Chicago will
declare for tariff revision along con.
sentative lines, says the Kansas City
Journal. With that probability in
view, 1t would be we'll II a special
tariff commission we're named as soon
as possible to consider the whole
matter of intelligent revision. 1t has
been suggested that this special com.
mission be composed Of non.partisan
experts, but this plan is objected to
by Mr.. Payne, chairman of the house
ways and mean committee, on the
ground that the republican party
through its maJorities in the house
aud senate will be held strictly re.
sponsible for any revision which
passes congress and that therefore
only republicans should be entrusted
with the delicate work of fixing new
Schedules.
However, the chief thing is that the
tariff should not be tempered with
save by those who are its friends and
who are in thorough sympathy with
the principle of protection of home
industry as espoused by the republi.
can party. When congress is called
on to undertake the work 1t should be
provided with all the data available,
and it will require practically all of
the ensuing twelve months for such
data to be collected and compiled. In
such a careful proceeding the enemies
of the tariff system who are clamoring
for ''revision' can find little comfort.
