TARIFF BILL Is A FAILURE
Treasury Must Issue Certificates OF

hington.-Treasury officials who a
few weeks ago declared that the issue
of certificates of indebtedness was UNI
likely, and were inclined to expressions
of felicity upon the then pleasing pros

tune. The failure of the Aldrich-Payne
tariff bill as sufficient revenue pro-
Queer means that the administration will
soon be forced to issue certificates of
indebtedness, owing to the continued
growth of the treasury deficit and the
steady decline in the working balance
in the treasury.
The Payne-Aldrich tariff law is not
yielding the revenues predicted by its
trainers. There is deficit for the four
months of this fiscal year of nearly
$24,000,000. The total balance in the
general fund is only $SS,000,000. OF this
amount only $29,oOo,o 900 is actually in
the treasury offices. National banks
hold $4,000, 900, and $6,ooo,000 is in
the Philippine Islands.
Consequently, it is not possible for
the government to come to the aid of
the banks by making more deposits. On
the other hand, it is more likely that
the government will be calling on the
banks for funds. There are now $685.

TAFT CAPTURES ''REBS"
KU-KLUX AND SECESSIONIsTS
THROWN IN FOR MEASURE.
President Shook Hands Alternately
With Confederates and g.
A. R. Veterans.

Birmingham, Ala. - President Taft
brought his twenty hours stay in Birm-
ingham to close Wednesday afternoon
and left for Macon, Ga.
In his principal Birmingham address,
delivered to aG immense and an unusual
ly demonstrative crowd the president
expressed again his good will toward
the South. While doing so, an old,
gray-bearded man in the crowd called
out:
God bless you! We all love you'll"
A broad grin came over the presidents
face as he turned and replied:
THAT reminds me of the old quotation,
1T may be all right to dissemble your
love, but why did you kick me down
stairs?'
But | have no fault to find on that
score" added the president.
One of the prettiest incidents of the
day occurred as the president was leav-
ing the luncheon. The way from the
clubhouse to the waiting automobile was
lined on one side by veterans of the
Confederate army and on the other side
by men of the Grand Army of the Re
public AS he passed down the avenue
formed by the grizzled old soldiers, Mr.
Taft stopped to shake hands alternately
with each one.
AS he shook hands with one of the
Confederates the old fellow said:

secessionists, the K,I-Klux and the cranky
Democrats, all of them"

WHITES ONLY TO VOTE
SENATOR CULLoM WOULD ELM
MATE THE NEGRO.
Declares That the South Believes In
the Republican Doctrine OF
q Protective Doctrine.

Washington. Senator Shelby M.
CuIlom. of Illinois, chairman of the for

cal ideas.
One of these is that if the negro did
not vote in the South all the Southern
States would join the Republican party.
The other is that the negroes ought
10 be permitted to vote everywhere else,
including the State of Illinois.
Mr.. Cullom, talking on these subjects,
said in part:
president Taft is showing wisdom IN
his Southern tour. Mr.. Taft is ming
ling with the Southern people in order
that he may get better acquainted with
them and they with him.
"Of course, the president doesn't in
tend to surrender any principle, but at
the same time he is willing to make con
cessions to the Southern people commen-
surate with any fair sense of justice.
"And likewise does he intend to eradi-
cate the Mason and Dixon line. In my
opinion, he is Just the man for that task
and if he doesn't accomplish it, to a GER
tain degree at least, | shall be sadly mis-
taken.
THAT line must be wiped out at some
era or another, that much is certainty
and l can't see any logical reasons why
the proper action shouldn't come right
now. There are several States in the
South simply ripe for falling into the
Republican column.

Mason and Dixon line which will not be
found in the Republican column of the

Therefore, the people of that section
