Chief Asks for Reversai
Of Action Of solons.


The president then gave number Of
other Instances. all OF which tend TO
point out the efficiency Of the secret
service, and he concludes:
"in conclusion. I most earnestly ask. In
the name OF good government and de-
cent administration, In the name OF hon
esty and for the purpose OF bringing
20 Justice vioiators OF the federal laws
wherever they may he found. whether In
public or private life. that the action
taken by the house last year be reversed.
When this action was taken. the senate
committee. under the lead OF the late
Senator Allison. having before II a
~ortelyou like that he had sent 90 Mr..
Tawney. accepted the secretsry's views;
and the senate passed tho bill In the
shape presented by Senator Allison. In
the conference. however. the house con-
ferees insisted ON the retention OF tho
provision they had inserted. and the
senate yielded.
The chief OF the secret service 10
paid salary utterly inadequate to the
Importance OF his functions and TO the
admirable way in which he has per
formed them I earnestly urge that II
may be Increased TO 1900 per snnum. I
also urge that the secret service be
placed where II properly belongs. and
made bureau In the department or
justice. as the chief Of the secret service
has repeatedly requested. but whether
this Is done or not. II should be eN-
pllcltiy provided that the secret service
can be used to detect ana punish crime

CHARGES FRAUD In
A DIVORCE HEARING

Lotan R. Dolby has filed an affi-
davit in the superior court in an
swer to his wife Libbie's motion to
set aside and vacate the decree
of divorce lately granted to the
husband on default of the wife.
Mrs. Dolby claimed that her hus-
band visited her after he had filed
a complaint and told her that he
did not intend to press the suit,
and that she did not need an at
torney to represent her.
She says she relied on his state
ments and neglected to retain
counsel and defend herself. She
asked for $500, $3.50 counsel fees
and 500 month alimony.
Dolby in his affidavit denies her
contention and says she purposely
defaulted in the case, and that he
went to the house to see his child.
He says he is paying $50 as or
dered by the court, and that her
charges are not true.
Dolby is a well known furnish
ing goods dealer here, with a store
at IL Riverside avenue. He denies
that he is worth $4,000 as alleged
by his wife. Both sides are sup
ported in their contentious by aft
davits. Dolby was granted a di-
vorce on February 10, 1909. The
case will come up soon for hear
ing

WASHINGTON, ID. c., June %.
Dear Dad Isn't Chauncey De-
pew the dandy humorist? Did you
see what Chauncey said? Listen:
81 don't see why it has suddenly
been discovered to be necessary to
tax corporation dividends. What's
the matter with a stamp tax? We
have often raised money by stamp
taxes. 1t would be easy to raise
forty millions by stamp tax. The
stamp tax always has proved popu-
lar"
Now, what do you think of that ?
Isn't # fine that Chauncey has dis
covered a popular form of taxa
ton? Why, of course, we all just
love 70 pay stamp taxes. It's so
amusing. And so is Chauncey.
Some things in the tariff are aw-
fully hard to explain. For in
stance, how 1t happened that, I'M
der a tariff on raw wool which was
entirely satisfactory to everybody
except the consumer the number
of sheep in the United States de-
creased from 63,000,000 in 1903 to
100000 in 1905. Senator War
rem had laid it to the Gemoraliza-
ton of the wool market, in conse-
quence of the Boer war in 1899.
Whereupon Senator Gore remark
ed: Il was left to infer that the
reason that the number of sheep
decreased in the United States was
this: The sheep in South Africa be-
longed to the international Peace
society: when the black clouds OF
war we're lowering in that region
they migrated to the United States
and later on, when that cruel wal
was over, when the white winged
angel of peace and the black wing
ed angel of death lowered over the
PROSTATE form of those stricken
republics, those sheep sorrowfully
wendell their way back to the
green fields and pleasant pastures
they trekked their way back to the
verdant veldts of the once glorious
Transvaal."
And that is what made wool sc
cheap in Europe and throughout
the world that it stimulated the
production of sheep in the United
States
Which shows that blind man
can see some things better than
some men with eyes. RATH.
