SOME STORIES
AROUND TOWN

Checkers is a game that is not dead
by any means. and there Is a large
number of business men who are
great admirers OF the game with its
millions OF different moves. Some OF
the business men are expert players.
and IL takes a player of experience 20
make a showing against them. In
quite a few business Offices the
checker board has place of honor,
and when tired from a days work the
board is taken down and a game
played with friends.
Aside from the regular payers
many club rooms are supplied with
the boards and the black and white
men are moved over the square
checks on the board every night.
other games have come. including
many later ones, but checkers is 50
firmly grounded that there is little
possibility of ever driving the game
from the hearts OF his devotees.

able for raising wheat than in the
greater part of the United States.
The trouble is that there is inexcus-
able carelessness in agriculture and
a blindness to best interests that is
astonishing.
Such utterances from one who
makes it his business to study the
problems OF agriculture ought to be
sufficient to lead farmers to think
and to act. Illinois agricultural ex-
perts are pushing measures loking
toward the systematic study of soil
conditions. The legislature should
support them. The idea of trusting
to luck is foolish. The thought of
wearing out the land is uneconomic.
The people have plain duty to them
selves. They have a duty to their
children and their children's children
The needs of the soil must be studied
When those needs are learned prompt
measures should be taken to supply
them.-Exchange.

cRITIcIzING THE JURY.

The verdict of the jury in the
Cooper case brings to a surprising
conclusion a trial with no lack of sur
prising features. BY what mental
process Il was reached. IS not the least
interesting of the questions which
have confronted the lay mind
throughout the somewhat grotesque
performance that has characterized a
trial in which what are alleged to be
the best legal minds in Tennessee
have been engaged. II Robin Cooper s
testimony is to be believed, il is diff
cult to see how a verdict of acquittal
could have been withheld. If the jury
was convinced of the truth of the
states argument, that Senator Car
mack was the victim of assassination
shot from the rear by Robin Coope
while his attention was engaged by
Col. Cooper whom he was facing. a
death sentence would appear to have
been the only logical finding. That a
compromise could be reached when
the issues at conflict were so clearly
defined scenes altogether improbable
Louisville Times.
Apparently, the esteemed Louis
Vile Times forgets, as We so often dc
in criticizing juries, that the jurors
were not sittino as referees at JOINT
debate between the prosecution and
defense, but as a sworn body to de

punishment. regardless of the theo.

defense both were wrong. We Ger.

Reduce Expense.
Washington, Maach 24.-That a
determined effort will be made TO re-
duce public expenditures to such an
extent that governmental needs may
be met by revenues derived from
duties on imports, and without re-
sorting to any of the special taxation
schemes that have been suggested in
connection with tariff revision. IS IN
dictated by a remark made by Sena-
tor Aldrich. chairman Of the senate
committee on nnance.
During the MONDAY recess OF the
committee. Mr.. AldrlCh was asked TO
give his opinion OF the plan errone-
ously accredited TO President Taft TO
place tax on dividends declared BY
corporations. Mr.. Aldrich replied
that he had not given thought to i
and added that he would not concern
himself with any OF the various plans
TO raise revenues BY special taxes
until Il could be ascertainee how
much revenue could be produced
by leyying duties on imports, and
whether the running operations OF
the government could not be de-
so as TO make special taxes
Great significance Is attached to
the remark made by Mr.. Aldrlch. Il
is asserted upon what IS thought %
be accurate information that a ma
jority OF the members OF the finance
regard with disfavor the
proposed Inheritance tax feature, the
income tax. leyies upon divi
iends OF corporations. tax on coffee

which the Payne bill was reported 10
the house from the ways and means
sufficient revenues 10 pay
the running expenses Of the govern
ment. at least upon the present basis
OF annual appropriation, cannot be
collected from duties on imports
alone. The inference drawn from
Mr.. Aldrich's expression, therefore
is that the revision of the tariff must
be of an upward trend. and that the
must curtain the tendency

gress. ir
