enaction of a law which would make
possible more favorable relations with

President Taft has expressed his high

of the Spanish War Veterans OF the
District
The letter is in reply to one which
Mr.. Rausch addressed to Frederick w.
Carpenter the President secretary, in
curing as to Mr.. Taft's attitude toward
the veterans.
Commander Rausch was III the i'm
preston that President Taft, lot being
an army or navy man. was not entirely
friendly toward the boys" of '9s.
Replying. the President said.

OF course. If Johnson should be elected
to the Senate. he would have accom-
plished d long step in the direction OF
getting the Democratic nomination for
the Presidency. He would then be in
a position where he could keep in the
public eve until the 1872 nominations.
Otherwise 1t win be more or less cif-
ffcult for him to keep himself promi-
nently before the public after he goes
out OF the office of governor.
Other Possibilities.

sentative Tawney is a man to be reclS-

Is Commended.
Johnson lately vetoed the bill and
his friends say that with his usual
luck he is being commended for
it all over the State and that he
has strengthened himself rather than
weakened himself. His veto rested on
much the same ground as Governor
Hughes famous veto of the 2-cent fare
bill. He was able to say that the State
had a commission working on the tax
problem and 1t was fair to leave the
matter to that body to work out a solu-
ton OF the vexed question OF taxing the
iron mines.
Stranger things have happened than

the hands OF the conferees, or they may
be improved before the bill leaves the
Senate.
Say Taft VIII Sign.
There is an element in the Senate
which is loud In its declaration that the
President win not veto any tariff bill.
however much he may disapprove Of
some or many of it's features. They base
their confidence in this regard on their
knowledge that the President is anxious
to get the tariff unrest out of the way
for the benefit OF the business and gen.
eral prosperity OF the country.
But he is also determined that the
pledge of the party 10 the country shall
be made good. and that the masses Of
the people shall be looked after. Moth
ing could be more foreign to his nature
the requirements Of the platform pledge
and the good Of the people as a whole
Congress has expressed itself as great
" appreciative of the manner in which
Mr.. Taft has kept his hands OF Of
privileges that are not his under the
Constitution. Members had become
tired Of doing the attention stunt for
many Presidential messages. and Of
hearing lectures on their shortcomings
But the inclination Of Taft to keep
within his constitutional preserves must
not be taken TO mean that he will not
exercise his rights in order TO see that
justice is done
Crisis For Republicans.
Aside from his natural desire TO see
that the good faith OF himself and the
party IS preserved. there is another rea-
son why the tariff bill should mean real
revision There has come a constantly
Increasing complaint from the consum-
ers. Never before in the history of tar
IN revision has there been such a state
IA, L IL
masses in regard TO what Congress is
doing. Those who read the signs Of the
times Alright argue that. unless the
promise or downward revision Is full
flled. disaster will come to the Repub-
Leans in the next Congressional cleo
tons. and, perhaps, in the next national
fight.
There is. therefore. abundant reason
why Senators should not deude them
selves with the belief that there is no
comeback" in the hereafter. Unless
they meet the party pledge, the Presi-
dent may be forced to take action which
he does not wish. and veto the bill.
Only One Safe Course.
The only way to prevent such an out
come Is for both the House and Senate
to work for genuine revision. put an
end 20 this talk Of "a practical re-enact-
ment OF the Dingley bill" and present
for the Presidential signature a meas
ure which fulfillS the requirements Of
the party promises and the good OF the
consumers as well as the interests Of
the uroddctrs and manufacturers
That this will be the ultimate outcome
Of the tariff work Is the confident be-
lief IN Administration circles such
an outcome would be the only reason
able one Wnen Senators and Representa-
tives have become fully alive TO the
fact that the Presidents attitude on
the tariff Is unchanged and that, when
he went to school. he learned how TO
spell veto"

WILMINGTON NJ. E. CONFERENCE

The forty-first session of the Whining
ton Methodist Episcopal Conference will
begin on March 18th in the Methodist
Episcopal Church at Milford. The con-
ference will be presided over by Bishop
David H. Moore, whose residence is Gin
cinnatti.
The program of anniversaries and other
business of the Conference is being pre-
pared at Dover.
Appropos of Conference, it may be men,
toned that the Rev. Thomas E. Terry,
pastor OF Ebenezer Church, Easton, Md,
has writtena very interesting letter on the
suggestion that the Conference districts
should be readjusted. This suggestion
has come from Bishop Moore.
II can only say" writes Mr.. Terry,
"that, while no one can with certainty
tell now what will be done, l think the
probabilities are that the districts will re-
main as present constituted. Indeed l
can see no good reason for reducing the
number to three instead of the four we
now have"
The addition to the Conference of part
OF what was originally the Virginia Con-
ference, adding very materially to the Sal
isbury district and increasing the labor Of
the superintendent, is mentioned as one
of the obstacles to such change.

NO DECREASE IN USE Or wOOp

In spite of the advance in freproof
construction during the last ten years
there has been no decrease in the use OF
lumber. according to statement pub
lished by the Bureau of Forestry.
Both architects and builders admit, ii
says, that the forests of the country are
likely to be the chief source of building
material for many years TO come. Tie
heavy demand for lumber continues, al,
though all Of the various freproof mater.
ials going into approved building con.
strnction are now used in greater qnan.
titles than was thought possible few
years ago.
The statement quotes from a report Of
the Geological Survey, showing that Of
the permits issued for building operations
last year in forty-nine leading cities OF
the country approximately 81 per cent.
were for buildings OF wood, while the
remaining 39s per cent. were for fre.re.
sisting structures.
f'These figures are more significant, .
the report adds, "when it is realized that
they represent only the building activities
in the largeet cities. In towns and small
cities wood is usually the predominatinG
building material. "

CARRIE NATION COMING BACK

LONDON, February 9th.-Disappointed
over the outcome of her crusade against
drinking and smoking in England, Carrie
Nation to-day booked passage for her re-
tnrn to America on March 18th. In the
meantime the Kansas Hatchet Artist will
make desperate effort to have an inter-
view with King Edward and to be re-
ceived by the House Of Lords. She has
a temperance lecture prepared to deliver
to the Lords.
Mrs. Nation explains her failure to ac-
compish definite results here to the lack
of cooperation from the church.
81 found many avenues of reform that
are common in America closed to me
here, which made my tour largely in
effective. However, am glad l came as
the experience I have gained will be
valuable.
"The drink evil in England is far worse
than in America, especially on Sundays.
The people are bound by lot of silly
conventions over here that you don't find
in America. If can just get to see the
King, I think l can accomplish some
good. I've been told the King is good
man at heart, and he surely will listen to
me-"

EASY MATTER TO CARE Foa OUR BIRDS

1t is easy to see that the birds are hav-
ing rather hard time of it just now. Not
the birds which fit southwark in the fall
and will return to Us with the warmer
weather, but the sturdy little fellows, es-
pecially the partridges, who, like Us, are
unable to get away. They are the faith
ful friends who stand by in winter as we'll
as summer; and their companionship is
all the more desirable in that it is offered
in the bleak and cherries days of the
year. 1t is too late in the day to debate
the immense value Of bird life to the
country. All of US have regard for them
that is more than merely sentimental,
even if in our carelessness We occasionally
permit them to suffer. All of which
leads to the remark that when the ground
is covered with snow and ice the birds
find it extremely difficult to secure their
food. Every 'hard winter" is tremen-
dously destructive to the feathered tribes.
This is true of the country as we'll as in
the city and the smaller towns. Much OF
this death and suffering could be easily
obyiated were we only a little more
thoughtful. 1t requires no exertion and
costs no money to spread handful of
grain or crumbs abroad for the birds every
day, especially when the ground is COW
cred with snow, and it means much to
them. Enough of them die of cold and
exposure when the temperature is very
low. 1t is almost cruel that others should
starye when it is 80 very easy to supply
the m with food.
