Where Caesar Crossed Thames.

Where did julius Caesar cross tiles'
Thames? This sounds ike size of tTlss-
questions set By staid CID examiners
In search OF information they failed tyr
acquire in their ,outh. There are per-
haps as many places claiming to bs~
the site of the famous fording as thersss
were claiming to be the birthplace osS
Homer. This week Rrentford haf%
stolen a march on other places anCs
has erected a monument commemoT-
ating Caesars crossing of the Thames
there. Most historians and to-
pcgraphers agree in placing the poin5t
of crossing at Halliford at a poinaE
known as Convey q. e.. Causewayrs
Stakes, and but little support is founc,f
Tor the Brentford theory. To many
people a monument is the most con-
vilcing of evidence, and though there's
is little tradition to support the Brent
ford column. that column will nce
doubt serve to strengthen the. gradf-
tion.-London Chronicle.

One Comfort.

Dick was a very clean little boy
and dirt disgusted him. One day he
found a poor little starved kitten
crouching in a ditch at the roadside
and he brought the wet. muddy little
waif home with him.
He took it to the hydrant and care
fully rinsed off all the mud, but the
shock was too great for the sick kitty
and the breath of life departed.
Dick brought her to t's mother, who
exclaimed at the sight of the wet,
droopi..g kitten, "Why, Dick, what
have you done?
"She was all mud and washed her"
Dick replied. "Oh, Dick" his mother
said sorrowfully, I'm afraid she's
dead" Dick looked shocked and
erieved for a moment, then his face
lighted up with gleam OF comfort
AS he exclaimed:
We'll, she died clean, anyway

Voiceof the People
JOKER IN LUMBER TARIFF.

Minneapolis. March p. 1909
Editor, THE TIMES,
Dear Sir-The lumber schedule of
the ways and means committee has
just reported is a profund disappoint-
ment to the lumber consumer.
While the duty on rough lumber is
reduced from 81 to l the duty on
finished lumber in all forms is left so
high as to remain prohibitive.
Rough lumber owing to transporta-
tion charges cannot be imported into
the United States except where water
transportation is available
Consequently the reduction on rough
lumber is of no benefit whatever to
the farmers and other consumers in
the great interior country.
Finished lumber can be imported be-
cause of the saving in railway rates
as compared with rough lumber If the
tariff permit it, but as proposed it does
not permit it.
About 80 per cent of the lumber
shipped from a mill by rail goes
through the planning mill before 1t is
put on the cars.
About the same percentage of the
lumber sold at a retail lumber yard is
planed or finished in some measure.
That is to say, the ordinary consumer
of lumber buys finished lumber almost
entirely.
And the lumber schedule as drafted
makes it impossible for him to get
this lumber from abroad. Therefore,
he viii be entirely dependent on do
nestle supplies as before.
This is the kind of revision that may
fool but will not benefit.
Every congressman who wants to
help his constituents to get cheaper
lumber should insist on free lumber,
both rough and finished.
Failing in that he should insist that
/ finished lumber which is what his av-
/ erage constituent buys shall not be
taxed more than rough lumber, which
is what the average constituent does
not buy.
Very truly yours,
/ NATIONAL FOREST CONSERVATION
LEAGUE.
