He Wanted More Information.

John Sharp Williams tells d good
story growing out Of the recent fight
in his state for the gubern atorial
nomination. 1t is a fine illustr alton,
Mr.. Williams thinks, Of quick repair
tee and native wit.
One of the candidates for the nomi.
nation of governor was JEFF Truly.
The campaign was at its height, and
while the question of prohibition was
not directly an issue it was a question
that would not down, and the people
were attempting tolline up the candi-
dates for all Offices on one side or the
other.
Mr.. Williams happened to be on the
train n day when jeff Truly was q
passenger. He was perusing a paper
when q we'll known Methodist minister
approached and said to Mr.. Truly
with characteristic clerical bluntness:
"Mr. Truly, do you drink whisky?'
The candidate looked doubtful for a
second, and then rising to his feet,
replied with great solemnity:
"Mr. Blank, l decline to answer
that question until l know whether it
Is an inquiry or an invitation"

next Tuesday and will continue almos,
until the opening of congress. The
first subject to receive attention will
be oils, paints and chemicals, and
Mr.. Payne said today that applica.
tons had already been received from
a number of persons who desired to
be heard. He also said there would
be no effort to put a bill through dur.
ing the present congress.
"What would be the use?" he asked,
and, answering his OWN question,
said:
"Even If the house should pass a
bill the sen ate would not act, and We
would have to do all our work over in
q special session."

in starting work on tariff revision.
While congress will be expected TO
devote its time to the question, much.
doubtless, will remain for the so.called
long session, which will Y in
December, 1909. The question is one
th at will take a vast o of time
and the president will not be disposed
to drive the lawmakers, if he could.
Whatever the outcome, it is probable
that tariff changes will be ade oftener
in the future than in the past. Am.
erica Is in no danger of adopting free
trade, but there is a general DISPOSE
ton to a adjust schedules TO actual
conditions and to recognize the fact
that however it may work out the
tariff is q tax.
The currency question is one that
undoubtedly will take up much of the
attention of the second session of the
Sixty-first congress-. The Aldrich bill
was not passed. without a prolonged
struggle. When it is considered that
it was merely a temporary measure
intending to tide over ar existing
crisis, it may be taken for granted
that a measure designed to completely
change the financial system will not be
easily passed.
Any serious mistake in the handling
of either OF these questions might
bring disaster to the country. Con-
gress has had nothing more impor-
tant on its hands in many years.

TWO

Two vital questions will confront
William II. Taft when he becomes
president of the United States, and
while congress eventually will dispose
of them, the Ohioan's administration
must be responsible for their solution.
These issues are tariff revision and
the currency question. If they are
decided satisfactorily to the business
men and financial interests OF the
country, Taft's administration will
have made good: on the olher hand,
If hiunder is made in either Of them,
the Taft administration will have been
a failure, and the people viii, so re-
gard it.
OF these two questions the first to be
considered Will be the tariff. The re-
publican party is pledged to reform
in this direction, and while tariff tin
kering has invariably disturbed bust
ness in all parts Of the country, it is
believed that some equitable revision
of present schedules can be made that
will accomplish the reforms most
needed without p%aralyzing trade.
President Elect Taft is pledged to call
al extra session Of congress immed-
lately after he ascends to the executive
chair. 1t doeslnot take the machinery
of government long to assemble, pom
derous as it is, and by the third
week in March it ought to be con.
vened and ready for business. The
preliminary work begun some time
ago and still under way should helt
to clear the path of congress, and with
no opposition in either house Taft and
his cabinet ought to have no trouble

WEDNESDAY,, NOV. II, 1908.
n LABOR VOTE.

One of the unfortunate and repre-
hensible features of the recent cam
paign was the desperate effort to
whip the labor vote into line for one
or the other of the political parties.
In the presidential contest it vas as
sumed by certain ~so-called leaders of
union labor that they could control
or influence the members of their or.
CARNATIONS in their political belief,
and secure their vote for the caudi.
date endorsed by these sgitators. In
the state and local campaigns, SINH
lar efforts we're made by arrogant in.
dividuals who undertook to exercise
authority they did not possess, and
commanded labor union men to vote
a certain ticket. lit is q tribute to the
intelligence of the:American working
men that the appeals of their so.called
leaders apparentlys.had little effect,
the returns demonstrating that the
labor vote was impartially distribute
ed.
Some of the demands of these So
called labor leaders were conspicu-
ously unreasonable and unjust, and
could not be entertained by any fair
minded citizen. 1t was insisted that
the acknowledgements, an instrument
through which coercion and intimida.
ton could be exercised, should be
permitted by law Another demand
was that labor unions should be ex.
empt from thesprovisions of the Sher-
man anti-trust.law, and Legislation to
prevent or delay 1.-THE. issuance of in.
functions to protect the property of
American citizensswassa also demanded.
Political candid ates who declined to
accede to these demands were threat
ened with the displeasure and hostility
Of labor unione'men throughout the
country.
In Montana 1.-The campaign mana.
gers of each political party attempted
to win the labor:vote by misrepresent-
ing the attitude OF the opposition in
matters tn at:were;alleged to affect the
interests of lworkingmen. Officials OF
some of the Montana labor unions
Issued manifestoes in which members
of their organizations were instructed
to vote a certain way, and the records
of candidates in regard to Legislative
proceedings of several years ago were
placed on exhibition in an effort to
create prejudice against them in labor
union circles.
These etfortskmay have affected the
Montana labor union vote to some
extent, but they caused resentment and
disgust among others. The Montana
workingman, Gas a rule, is possessed
of averagescommon sense, and prizes
the privilegeof castinglhis vote without
instructions from agitators of ques-
tionable integrity and purpose, and
who assume to;have the labor vote at
their disposal.
1t has occasionally happened, in the
political affairs of Montana, that
members of theSlegislature have been
intimidatedi by :thre atslmade by these
so.called labor leaders. who demanded
certain legislation that was considered
unwise Or unnecessary. These methods
are unfair and un.American, and it is
cause for Satisfaction that they did
not materially affect the result in the
recent election.

CANALS OF VENICE.
Open In Connngration of Dazzling
Brlliancy--A Water Wonder Way.

In a confagration OF dazzling and
surprising brilliancy the marvellous
scenic spectacle and gorgeous water
wonder-way Canals OF Venice
opened to the public at Savin Rock
last night The startling magnih-
cence of this-Sam Speck's latest at
traction-has ecllpsed the most vivid
lmagnlngs of the beautiful, and no
one was more surprised at the extrav-
agant extent of the beauty displayed
than the denizens Of Savin Rock them
selves.
To go into details Of this splendid
and exact reproduction of that de-
lightful city OF Italy-Venice-
merely play with adjectives, and
none seems too extravagant to use.
The "frontispiece that part Of
the many buildings facing the grove
and containing the entrance-presents
at night one mass of electric flame,
and blazing from near the crest Is
| the simple name Venice" Through
| this wall Of fire many poured last
night to the gondolas and after the
mile ride emerged absolutely SPELL
bound by the impressive exquisiteness
of some of the scenes and the almost
massive beauty of others. The ride
through the labyrinth of canals seems
almost ceaseless. 1t Is the longest Of
It's kind In the world and the memory
of all the positive gorgcousness wit
messed fingers long with one.
Particularly Is one spellbound by
the spendor Of the scenes along the
historic Grand canal, where the artist
has drawn on his imagination some to
depict with his brush the villa where
Paul and his adored of Three Weeks"
fame basked In the intense sunshine
Of their own love. Over the balcony
hangs the famous tiger skin. while
the delighted visitor may recognize
other details of the villa. Flowerng
plants are rampant, and as one glides
noiselessly with the deep blue waters
he may well feel himself in an earthly
Garden of Eden"
Probably nothing is more startling
ly effective than when the gondola
shoots through a brief space OF inky
blackness and suddenly bursts out into
a great amphitheater, the walls OF
which are adorned with reproductions
of pictures OF noted Italian painters
over 1000 high power incandescent
lights in Venetian colors give this
great chamber rare atmosphere OF
sumptuousness, and here one Is Ger.
tainly in Glory-Land And so It Is

Of startling surprises in the magnih-
cent and marvelous-an example OF

\ lie Mans, where Wilbur Wright 10 per-

southwest Of Paris and thirty miles north
of Tours. 1t Is fine old French city Of
about 10000 inhabitants.
The history Of lie Mans goes back to
even before the time when the Romans
took possession Of It. The present theatre
was built on the site Of an old Roman
amphitheatrs. Under Charlemagne the
city was one of the most important In
the whole kingdom.
There are two fine old churches In Le
