be made here as cheaply as abroad so
that they do not need help.
But the men In charge Of the House
of Representatives, and of the tariff
Committee, are afraid to offend the
wealthy businesses which can get high
prices for their goods because outside
goods cannot pay the big tariff and be
sold cheap. They want to keep a high
tariff in spite of the wishes of the
people as expressed in the recent
great TAFT victory. So Taft is worry
ing about how he can keep his prom
Use TO revise the tariff.
At last appeared a champion of re-
vision downward in the person of Mr..
John w. Yerkes of Kentucky, who de-
manded that the tariff on certain
commodities of the American Tobacco
Trust, notably licorice paste be re-
moved. And Mr.. Yerkes gave con-
vincing reasons against the trust. Mr..
Yerkes' valiant stand was applauded
by the Washington papers, and II was
effective with even the Committee.
Mr.. Yerkes broke the ice. Other
representatives of the peoples wish
es have come forward since he showed
them the way. 1t has been shown that
sugar could be sold at 2 1-2c pound
at a profit by American producers
with a low tariff; although probably
nothing will be done 10 the sugar
tariff because It brings a large re-
venue which the country cannot do
without just now. The tariff on ium-
Der ought to be taken off, so that
our forests will not be destroyed by
being the only ones from which tim
Der supplies can be drawn. This Mr..
Tafrs desires, and one on which he
is apt to have fight with the des-
potic leaders of the House. The
tariffs on steel and on leather are
not needed, the friends of the Pres
ident-elect think. This matter will
come up during the present week. The
tariff on wood-pulp, used in making
paper, is so high that paper makers
can extort such high prices from the
publisher of newspapers and books
that the latter are having hard times
to furnish the reading public cheaply
with news and books.
All these reductions of import du-
ties are being strongly advocated now
But the first brave attack upon the
opponents of Taft's tariff policy was
that led by Kentucky's representa-
tive, Mr.. Yerkes.
The American Grange, or national
farmers association, which has been
meeting In Washington, insists that
If manufactures are protected farm
products must have equal aid. But
this is the same thing as saying that
they do not care II protection is
lowered ON agricultural products. pro-
vided only that factory products are
treated the same way.

Manchester, KY, Nov. %, 1905
There was a large crowd Of people
in town yesterday, and the talk was
mostly of the Circuit Judges race.
Most men were Of the opinion that
our present Judge. II. c. Faulkner,
ought to be elected and would carry
this county by a nice majority, and
the general opinion is that he ought
to be and would be elected. Almost
everybody says that he has gained
faster than any man they ever saw.

Barbourville. KY, Nov. 22nd. The
candidates for county offices in this

whereby they pledge themselves not
to use money or whiskey in the COM

Monday the proposition was put to
Judge Faulkner, who Is one of the
candidates for Circuit Judge. and he
signed It, In doing so he said that
he was glad of an opportunity to sign
such an agreement; that he had not

Barbouryille. Ky, Nov. %. 19OS.-Mr.
Lewis's campaign in this county has
largely fallen flat since Judge Faulk-
ner signed the anti-bribery agree
ment. and affairs here are rapidly
getting into good shape for the judge.
His friends expect Knox to give him
its old time majority, and his enemies
practically admit that there is no
longer any hope of making any head
way against him. He is gaining daily
and will almost certainly have the
county in good shape by election day.
The only danger his friends here feel
is from the use of money by Lewis.

GLASGOW WESTERN
To ERECT REDUCTION
BIG WORKS At ONCE
STAMP MILL AND TUBE CONCEN-
TRAITOR ARE TO BE INSTALL
ED AT EARLIEST POSSIBLE
TIME-WORK BEGINS.

Decision reached by the directors
of the Glasgow & Western Explora-
ton Co. who have been spending the
past week at Cherry Creek in in
spection of their properties there, has
been for the immediate erection of a
one hundred ton stamp mill tube
ooncentrator. Preliminary work for
the construction of the plant was be-
gun yesterday and work has also
been started toward dismanteling of
the old mill, situated about seven
miles from the camp.
Surveyors have been at work dur
ing the latter part of the week TAX
ing necessary steps for selection of
the site of the new mill, which will
be located about two hundred yards
from the main tunnel on the Star
property of the exploration company.
This will bring the mill within one
and one-half miles of Cherry Greek
proper. allowing the force of men
to be engaged while building, and
when the plant is in operation! to
reside at that place.
As soon as the work of the sur
yeyors is completed at the site OF
the mill a force of men will be put
TO work excavating and all the vigor
possible will be put into the work
so as TO bring about completion of
the plant at earliest possible date.
II is anticipated that three months
will be occupied in installation of the
new STAMP mill and concentration, by
the end of which time the company
expects TO have the machinery work
ing on its ores.
In dismanteling of the old mill
what equipment in the way of boil
ers and engines that will be useful
after thorough overhauling will be
moved 10 the site of the new works
and installed. All other machinery
will he entirely new and modern and
when complete the Glasgow & West
ern people will have one of the fin
est and most up-to-date works of the
kind in the state. The plant will
be equipped with MaeQuesten tube
system Callow's tanks and all other
necessary machinery of the latest
and most improved make.
Joseph Farren. who is managing
director, and -. Macpherson Boyd,
also a director of the company, have
been spending the past seevral days
perfeeting arrangements for installa-
ton of the new works at Cherry
Creek. They were accompanied on
their trip by Mr.. Callow and A. Mac
Questen, inventor of the McQuesten
tables. Mr. Farren will remain at
Cherry Creek until work of erection
of the new plant is well under way.
