Mr.. TAFT AND THE TARIFF.

Speaking of tariff revision at the Ohio
cietv'S dinner in New York on the 18th, Mr..
Taft said:
Better no revision at ALL better that the
new bill should fail unless We can have an
honest and thorough revision ON the basis
laid down and the principle outlined in the
party PLATFORM.
II the pledge of the party to the people
were to be broken it would be hettcrto break
it by an act OF open. courageous dishonesty.
such fiat denial of revision would be.
than to break faith sneakinglv by Il dishon-
est revision. The people would be more in
censed. the tariff question would assume an
uglier shape. and the consequences for the
republican party would be more serious if
there should be Il sham revision. Mr.. Taft
does not intend that that shall happen. SAYS
the Chicago Tribune. He pledged himself
during the campaign to an honest revision.
He is Il man who has always meant what he
said and has never used phrases that were
susceptible for Il double meaning. Whenever
he has reached and stated II conclusion he
has not changed his mind.
The consumers may rest assured cnntin-
ueS the Tribune that though they may have
no warm friends on the Ways and Means
committee they will have one in the White
house. Mr. Taft said at the Ohio dinner that
the tariff declaration of the party did not
provide for the taking of d decree pro con-
fesSo against those in the community who
could not appear before committee of the
congress and be heard. There is comfort
i'll this for the men with small wages who
look to tariff revision for a cheApeniny of
boots and shoes, clothing. and many other
Of life. They are unable to 90
before the Ways and Means committee. and
only II few words have been uttered there in
their behalf.
They and their families stand in the great
est need OF an honest tariff revision Mr.
Taft understands that, hence his repeated
assurances to consumers that they shall not
be defl;uded of the effective revision prom
Used them by the republican platform.
The Tribune. THE PRESS wants to say. l..
an old and reputable republican paper. but
has always been almost democratic in H.
tariff views. and we shall wait to hear from
Cannon, Payne and other republican leaders
before We take amy stock III the promises 81

Tax Laws Tested.

Clarksdale, Miss, Nov. ga test case
which has just been argued In the cir
cult court now in session here, If the
ruling Of Judge Cook be sustained,
means an increase in the revenues OF
the Yazoo Delta Levee Board in this
district Of about $4,000 yearly.
The case was that of the Royal In
surance Co. vs. the Board Of Levee Com
missioners, and involved the constitu-
tiopality of that part Of the privilege
tax law of 1908 inbibting said board
from levying privilege taxes on efire in
surance companies operating in the
district. The case was argued by Hon.
]. ". Cutrer as attorney for the insur-
ance company, the levee board commits
sioners being represented by their
attorney, Hon +. A. Montgomery OF
Tunica, and resulted in favor OF the
board.
This means that the board has the
right to collect 800 per annum from all
such companies doing business In the
district, which will aggregate some'
thing like ss,NO0 in the event that the
ruling is sustained in the higher court.

"Otten Wonder Why IT'S &c."

This is sort Of topsy turvy world.
No one seems TO be satisfied. One man
IL struggling TO get justice, and another
Is flying from it. One man Is saving up
to bny house and another is trying
hard to sell bis dwelling for less than II
cost to build it. One man Is spend
ing all the money he can earn in taking
a girl 10 tbeater or show and sending
her valuable presents In hopes that he
may eventually make her his wife, and
his neigbbor Is spending all the gold be
has saved trying to get divorce. One
man keeps pistol to protect himself
against burglars, while his neighbor
doesn't keep one for fear Of shooting
himself or some member Of the family.
One man pays for his paper In advance
because he can read 1t with a greater
relish, while another takes 1t -four or
Ave years without paying one cent for
It, and enjoys IL hugely all the while.
