Ever Notice 1t E?

Did you ever see a short man walk
ing with tall lady and trying to ma
nipulate an umbrella so as to keep
both Of them from getting wet? If you
haven't you have overlooked a sight
distinctly worth the price of admis-
sion. She humps down and tries to
show him that she doesn't really con
slider herself above him, while he
reaches as nigh as possible in the most
ambitious way. If he happens to get
the Regenschirm entangled with her
Merry Widow it's sad, but can't be
helped, and if ne drips a few gallons.
more or less, of the icy fluid down her
back she has to smile and pretend that
it was merely exhiliarating. And the
only solution Of the problem-to let
her carr the umbreIla-never seems
to occur to them.

1t Has Come!

We knew it was coming but it arriv-
ed somewhat earlier than we expected.
The Philadelphia North American has
discovered, now that the election is
over, that there is to be no tariff re-
vision in the interests Of the general
public. In an editorial entitled 1.-The
Tariff Farce" the North American
says:
1.-The tariff hearing by the Ways and
Means Committee at Washington have
progressed far enough to justify the
North Americans view that they are
dishonest pretension. Cannon, Payne,
DaIzell, Fordney and others of the
inner circle of the reactionarIes arc de-
ceiving no one IN their effort to make
farce and falsity OF the pledge for
scientific and equitable tariff revision
upon which Taft stood and the national
ticket was elected cannon proclaims
himself a tariff revisionist. He does
so in these wrods: IF | live, l am 60
ing, so far as my vote is concerned, to
see to it that the policy of the Repub-
lican party on this question is written
in the national laws as promptly as
possible. The laws should be written
promptly, so that business can adjust
itself to changed conditions, for the
change will of necessity bring distur-
bance" Which means that an evasive
and deceptive hodge-podge is to be
rushed through to passage, without re
gard to the needs of the consuming
public or the legitimate business inter-
,sts if Cannon preserves his old-time
)ower to see to it in behalf of the

Of farm colonies in which tramps will

A Rare Occurrence.

The choosing OF a capital for nation
is of rare occurrence but when the step
becomes necessary it is by no means
easy and generally causes friction.
This country wrestled with the ques-
ton for quite time and nearly half a
century ago Canada had the same ex-
perlence. The Commonwealth of Aus
tralia have just settled upon their cap
ital after a good deal of heart burning,
and in so doing nave followed the
American precedent of selecting a
tract of land which shall bear the same
relation to the other states of the Com
monwealth as the District of Columbia
does to the various states of the I'm
ion. 1t is said that in every particular
the tract chosen is admirably adapted
for its purpose. Now the Australians
are uncertain what name to give it.
If the "standpatters'' can manage
to keep up this clatter about the secret
service long enough they may be able
to stave off tariff revision.

UP MATTER OF MUNICIPAL
CODE WITH NEW GOV
ERNOR.

CHARLESTON, Jan. 22.-Delegate
Kingsley, of Wood county this morning
made the first step toward securing
4 uniform municipal code for West
Virginia. Mr.. Kingsley has been dis.
cussing the ACCESSIBILITY Of this matter
with Governor.eleet GMsseock, and It
is believed that the latter has express
ed himself in favor Of It.
The chief argument in favor Of this
move Is that on m average half the
time Of the legislature is occupied In
considering special charters for differ
ent cities and that this time could be
saved IL there were uniform code.
The idea Mr.. Kingsley has In view Is
to have a commission appointed for
the purpose of drafting n bill. the ap'
