THE WAY THE TARIFF WALL AT,
FEcTs AMERICAN CONSUMERS.

. . j .
According to a recent govern
ment publication his country's ex
ports amounted last year to the enor-
nous sum of two billions, about 40
per cent. of which represented man
ufactured goods.
II our manufacturers can make
and sell each year $S0O,OO0,OOO worth
of goods in the free markets of the
world, what need was there fol
raising our tariff wall still higher
than it was under the Dingley bill?
If the American people could buy
these manufactured articles as
cheap as they are sold for abroad,
by American manufacturers, no one
would complain or care very much
whether the tariff was high or low.
But this they can not do. Most OF
our exports of manufactured goods
are sold in the free markets of the
world much cheaper than they are
sold here at home, and that is why
the American consumer cries on,
against the unnecessarily high rates
of the Aldrich bill.
The American manufacturers gei
down behind this high tariff wall
and form trusts and combines tt
limit production, do away with com
petition and graft the American con
sumer for all that the tariff wal
will permit. In many instances tn,
tariff is SO high that it enables mar
ufacturers to charge not alone un
just but immoral profits.
President Taft may continue tt
swing around the circle and pound
the tom-toms for the rest of hi.
Term, but he cannot make such in.
Justice appear right to iustic,
loving people.

PROPER CARE OF SCHOOL Chill.

has just been sent out by the depart
ment of tuberculosis of the Board
of Control of state institutions.
Now that the schools and colleges
throughout the state are open for
the coming year. the proper care of
the health of the students becomes
a matter of the greatest Importance.
Thousands of children are assembled
daily in buildings which in matters
of sanitation and ventilation may be
classed as bad Comparatively few
of the school buildings of the state,
especially in the country, are proper
ily constructed from the standpoint OF
light, ventilation and sanitation.
This being true, it is important that
such methods shall be employed as
may be possible to mitigate the
harm arising from any lack of these
very essential things. Moreover
there is overcrowding because of in
sufficient room, which makes it
doubly important that where such
conditions exist a still greater at
tention should be paid to the sanitary
environment CT the pupils.
It may be stated that the yentila-
ton of school rooms is of highest i'm
portance. Where number of chill
dren are assembled for six or seven
hours daily and no system of yentila-
ton is installed it will be seen that
some method should be devised by
superintendent and teachers tc
supply such rooms with sufficient yer
tilation so that the children may
have a maximum amount Of pure
air. Except in extreme weather win
dows may be lowered and fresh ali
constantly supplied without endanger
ing the health of the students.
The heating of school houses yer,

The negro population of this coun-

In 1910, 1903 per cent. of our pop

tween Dakota and st. Paul streets,
shortly after D. m. Sunday and be-
fore the blaze could be extinguished
damage to the amount Of s40O or $500
was caused by IRE and water, mostly
in the sacristy, or rear OF the church,
where the sacred vessels and costly
vestments were kept, many OF which
were ruined.
The church was empty when the
IRE started, and the exact cause of
the blaze is unknown, but Father
Geraghty advances the theory that the
fire started either from a candle left
burning by the boys, a match, or
from piece of charcoal. When dis
covered, the blaze was running I'D the
wall and smoke pou! ing from the roof
Of the sacristy. The alarm was turn
ed in, the volunteer companies making
a rapid run to the church. Al hole was
chopped through the roof and with
water playing from above and below
the blaze was soon under control and
quickly extinguished Much damage
to the vestments, some OF which were
carried TO Father Geraghty's parson-
age, resulted from the water.
The church proper and altar escaped
injury, although some Of the candles
and utensils on the latter were broken
while being carried out Had the fire
burned undiscovered fifteen minutes
longer. it would have been impossible
to save either the church or parsonage.
