the result is gratifying to the lead

the month to give the Burnley Society
control of at least rs per cent. of the
crop.
In the nelghborhood of 100000 acres
of tobacco are pledged TO the Society
and members and others who hope TO
the success of the movement are out
in the Burnley district buying up the
crops of independent growers and
putting them to pool. This has been
one of the factors in increasing the
price of the new tobacco.

Gus CHARGE.

A gtabbing ARRAY, which, but for
interference on the part of the police
might have proved fatal, occurred
shortly before midnight Friday. Matt
Hill and Gust Kashaha displayed good
sized gashes In their shoulder and leg,
respectively. The knife wielder was
John Koulpanen who they claimed as

The two injured men were in COM

one OF whom is able to speak some
English. The Others, although they
have been In this country thirteen
years can speak only in their native

That there was trouble of some ma
ture which could be based as a mo-

claimed that such was not the case.
When it was suggested that the men
were possibly discussing the national

TARIFF and CANNON
ROUNDLY "ROASTED''
NEW LAW AND SPEAKER FREE.
" CRITICISED IN SENATOR
LA FOLLETTE'S WEEKLY.

Madison, Wis, Aug. 14-The new
tariff bill and Speaker Cannon are
bc"h assailed by United States Sena-
tor La Toilette in this weeks issue of
la FolIette's Weekly. ~
''The new tariff law and the pres
ident's statement" is the caption OF
tbs leading editorial which says in
part: .--...s .... .F ...s-.- H. r..
I'm Judging the true character OF the
Payne-Aldrich law, it is we'll for us
to remember who forced tariff revision
and why. Who petitioned congress,
session after session, for five long
years? Who finally compelled candi-
Gates and political conventions to de-
clare for revision?
"It was not the Steel trust, the Su-
gar trust, the Coal trust, the Lumber
rust the Woolen trust. the Cotton
trust the Harvester trust.
Congress Stood Pat.
THE Dingley law served their pur-
pose admirably. The trusts stood pat.
Congress may not have known Just
" hat the trusts wanted, but congress
did just what the trusts wanted. 1t
stood pat.
What was the tariff revision for ?
1t was not to increase duties. 1t was
aot to re-enact the Dingley rates.
Demand Was Ignored.
'Tt was downward revision-honest
downward revision--tna kind of revi-
sion the republican party promised, the
kind of revision the republican can-
didate for president pledged again and
aSain during the campaign.
The kind Of revision demanded,
promised, accepted, voted for and de-
creed at the polls, has not been even
partially complied with. Insofar as the
orice of any article OF common use
Is affected, by the rates fixed in the
Payne-Aldrich law, the cost will be
Increased to the consumer.
President Taft approved the new
law. He has told the country why he
did so. But there is a hopeful sig
niflcance in the presidents intimatioh
that tariff revision is not a closed
book"
cannon's Revenge.
Under the caption "Cannon's Re-
venge." another editorial says:
by RELOCATING to minor positions or
uuimportant and Joke committees
those republican congressman that had
the temerity to question his divine
right to rule, Mr.. Cannon may be
laSoring under the sweet delusion that
re can thus awe into quiet submission
the constituents of these representa-
| tives whose voices and votes are STIR
ring an ever increasing and ominous
protest against Cannonism.
| Cannon took his revenge. But by
so doing ne went long way toward
bringing about his own downfall. For
In his high handed manner of dis
ciplining representatives he performed
the service of demonstrating beyont
/ question how little of real representa-.
tion the citizen is permitted to have II
congress-.
/ "Cannon's revenge is likely to cos
MIN more dearly than anything else h'
has ever DONE"
