tion. That law applied nationally would be more valuable than all the present railroad regulations of all the states. It would take away the power of a road to bleed one town to build up another. 1t would take away the ability of one big town to grow larger by levying a tribute on it's neighbors through advantages in freight rates. This is really a great question. Think it over.

TIE LEAD SCHEDULE
A DUTY OF t1a CENTS A POUND IN THE ORE FIXED BY
 SENATE.
VOTE NOT CONSIDERED SIGNIFICANT
Low Tariff Republicans Had Not op-
 nosss This Particular Paragraph eristow Still in the Flght-sena,or Bacon Says That for Every Dollar of Revenue the People Pay seven

Washington, May 9.--Just before aa- ;ournment yesterday the senate voted to fix the duty on lead contained Ill lead ore at one and one-half cents a nound which is the rate of the Ding lev law and of the pending Dill as IL was passed by the house.
 Fiftv.three senators. including all Republicans, present, and Senators Hughes of Colorado, McEnesy oi Louisiana. voted in favor of the duty and 1g Democratic senators voted against 1t. This particular paragraph has not been opposed by the low tarii Republicans and the vote was not significant.
 During the day Senator Clapp Of Minnesota spoke at length in favor or lowering tariff duties and Senator Owen of Oklahoma up held the con stitutionality of an income tax.
 Resuming his opposition to levying any duty on pig lead in addition to the duty of IF cents pound provided for the lead in ore by the tariff bill as passed by the house, Mir. Bristow de clared that 1t costs no more to make pig lead ir this country than abroad MT. Bristow was interrupted by Sena- tor Aldrich, Hepburn, Borah, Smooth Sutherland and others, all contending that the labor cost in producing lead was enough greater than abroad tc justify the differential of K of one cent per pound as proposed by the committee on finance. MT. Bris tow said he would offer no opposition 10 the proposed duty on lead in ore because of conditions but protested against any additional duty on pig lead, The product of the ore.
 There was a fair prospect of reach Ing a vote on the lead schedule wher Senator Bacon took the floor and pro ceeded to discuss the general princi ples of the protective tariff system He declared that by a conservative estimate for every dollar collected al the custom houses of the country sl ii placed as a burden upon the people 1T the way of increases in the prices o the articles they consume compared tC what they would pay If there was nc duty So that to raise s300,000,000 re suits in burden of about s2.000,000, GOO on the American people. He con tended that the benefits go entirely tt the producers of the articles affected
 Mir Bacon declared that under tar if for revenue only a duty equal tt 25% per cent ad valorem would b' necessary to support the goyernmen which would reduce the s2,000,000,O ,O0' to the etxent of about one-fourth.
 Mir. Bacon especially criticised thu woolen schedule as providing exces sive rates.
 Senator La Folloette read from { newspaper statement of an agree ment among the lead interests of tho world by which they were assured o harmonious action in the matter o fixing prices. The statement also de clared that the Guggenheims and oth CT great lead producers and manufac turers were included in the combina tion.

gregation, but by the press. One of his
valuable ministerial assets has been
his ability to seize his opportunities
and make the most of them. He is a
believer in the use of current events
to illustrate scriptural truths, and his
sermons are often filled with pertinent
and timely advice. DIR. Rowland is also
said to be as good a friend as he is q
pastor. and his kindly nature and broad
sympathy have endeared him not only
to his own congregation, but to men
and women of other denominations, and
outside the churches.
From the qualifications of the new
pastor coming unsolicited from his
present home city. it is considered
safe assertion that DIR. Rowland will
prove an able successor to the local
charge.
