and the phraseology greatly changed
in the hope of preventing reductions
through decisions by the courts such
as have characterized the administra-
ton of the Dingley law during latter
years. In many instances the rates
intended to be imposed by the Ding
ley law were cut by the decisions, the
reductions in some instances being
from 60 per cent. to eight per cent. ad
valorem. 1t is estimated that the
rates fixed by the bill are about three
per cent. higher upon an average than
those collected on cotton last year
Probably the most marked reduc-
lions throughout any schedule In the
bill as a result of the action Of the
two houses and of the conference COM
mittee are found in the metal SEIZED
ule. Beginning with a decrease in the
rate of iron ore from 40 to Is cents
per ton, there is a general reduction
throughout that portion of the bill,
pig iron going down from 81 to 81. so
per ton, and scrap iron from 81 to ST.
The reduction on many of the items in
this schedule amounts to about so per
cent, and this reduction includes
steel rails. There is an increase on
structural steel ready for use and also
slight increase on razors, nippers
and pliers, and on such new metals
as tungsten.
Rates on Hosiery Increased.
The rates on hosiery are generally
increased. In the much contested mat
ter of the rate on gloves the high pro-
tectionists fail to score. They sought,
through an increase made by the
house, to raise the duty materially
above the Dingley figures, but were
antagonized by the senate, and the
senate won, the only change made in
the entire schedule being one slight
reduction.
The silk schedule was reconstructed
with view Of imposing specific rath-
er than ad valorem dutieG, with the re-
suit that the average duty will be
somewhat higher under the new law
than under the present statute.
| Oil cloths and lineoleum are heavi-
ly cut, but otherwise the changes in
the fax, hemp and jute provision
were not material. A slightly in
creased duty is provided for
hemp, both crude and hacked, and
also on certain high-grade laces. On
linen yarns and mattings there is a
reduction.
Sugar and tobacco duties remain
substantially as they are under the
Dingley law. The free importation of
considerable quantities of both of
these articles from the Philippine is.
lands is permitted, and a material
change was made in the internal reve.
nue. law by an amendment taking the
tax off the sale of tobacco in the hand
There is uniform increase on spir.
its, wines and liquors of Is per cent.
Raise Rate on Hops.
In the agricultural schedule hops
are increased from IL to 16 cents a
pound and there Is also an increase
on lemons, figs, almonds and pine.
apples.
The publishers win their fight for
lower wood pulp and print paper, the
rate on the ordinary newspaper print
paper being fixed at 1915 per ton in
stead of Sc as under the Dingley law
and on the higher grades of print pa

for something is absent. Its textbook knows prayer only as pious medita ton and right living. It uses the Lords Prayer with the mental reser- vation that it means what Mrs. Eddy distorts 1t into meaning. I am glad to believe that there are Christian Scient- iss who still pray, but if they do it is because of the orthodox teaching of former years which they have not yet unlearned.
 Christian Science is a religion with out a personal God. It asserts that love is God, truth is God, life is God, and everything is God because God is said to be all and in all. But it is evident that any number of things. indeed. all things put together, can not make an infinite personality. Chris tian Science is a religion without con fession of sin, and therefore without forgiveness. It does the very opposite of confessing sin by denying that sin has existence. But the saddest feature of all Is that Christian Science is a religion without a Saviour. It does not shrink from the blasphemy that Christ Himself is Christian Science. On page PAP it says: There is but one way toe heaven and hamOny. and Christ, divine scIenoe. shows IS ;he way It claims again that Christian Science Is the Holy Spirit. On page s5' This Comforter I understand to be divine Science It also asserts that the blessed hope of the Lords second coming is Christian Science. On page or her autobiography the leader says: The second appearance of Jesus is, unquestionably the spiritual advent of the advancing idea of God in Christian Science The whole system Is Unita- rian in theology. It claims that Jesus was a mere man who was orucified, and His dust remains in the soil or Palestine. while the only resurrection we have is Christian Science. It has taken away our Lord, and we know not where 1t has laid Him"

Made It Quite Clear.

The engineers of a party in the field
were continually annoyed by the curl
osity Of the farmer folk in the country
round. Each and every day their prog
ress was blocked by some inquiring
soul who would have liked to spend
the forenoon acquiring answers to
questions of why and whittier and
how far and what for, relates the New
York Sun. At last a serious faced
young man took an interested bucolic
graybeard one side and explained mat
tiers.
"Now," said he, "I'm telling this to
you, and don't want it to go any fur
Their. We have discovered that the
earth is a parabolic hexoid, and the
ordinates and co-ordinates do not quite
tally by foot or perhaps by fourteen
inches. The place where the gap comes
has been located in that field just
ahead of us. We don't want it men
toned, but we are getting ready to
blow up the spot and make an incision
before beginning the operation Of join
ing the two"
The engineers finished their labors in
peace and solitude.

An Early Georgia Monster.

In the fore part of August, 1912, q
party Of hunters found in a mountain
GUS region now known as Rabun coun-
ty, Ca, being nearly eight feet high
covered with blush hair and having a
human face adorned with immense
ears resembling those Of an ass. The
creature was stone deaf and on that
account seemed wholly unconscious of
the approach of the men. This mon
ster seems, from all accounts, to have
been seen upon several occasions dur
ing the next four years. In 1916 a
number of adventures from Virginia,
most of them surveyors working up
the unexplored portions of Georgia
and the Carolinas, formed themselves
into a party for the express purpose
of capturing the uncanny being if pos
sible. They secured the hills and val
leys for several days and at last re-
turned unsuccessful to the startir g
point
The many tales told of this, extrat =
binary being seem to have created
quite stir all along the Atlantic coast.
A printed circular issued by land
company in 1916 says, '"The climate Of
Georgia is exceedingly mild, the soil
productive, and the danger Of attack
from uncouth beasts which are repre-
scented as being half beast and half
man are fairy tales not worthy Of con-
sideration."- Exchange.

PARTY AFFILlATION INVALID
Declaration Provision Renders New
Primary Law of Washington
Void.

Olympia-The state supreme court
has affirmed the decision of Judge
Mitchell Of the Thurston county
superior court, holding invalid the
provision of the new primary cleo
ton law requiring voters to des1g-
nate their party affiliation.
1t declares that in most laud-
able endeavor to correct existing
abuse the last legislature altered sec
ton II of the primary law" and "in
its attempt to meet a condition the
legislature has stopped short of its
purpose and its endeavor must be
held to be Intellectual until a proper
amendment is made to the registra-
ton law making compliance with
the later law possible"
The particular section held inef-
fectual was intended to prevent par
ties of one political faith taking part
in the primaries Of another, and pro-
vided that at primaries "the elector
shall have the right to receive the
ballot only of the party for which
he registered. The legislature neg
1ected to provide any amendment to
the registration law to meet this
party declaration, hence the act fails

Suffragists are exceedingly active
in all the counties of Washington,
taking a poll of the voters to ascer-
tain their standing on the consti-
tutional amendment granting the
ballot to women, which will be
voted on in November, 1910. Thurs
ton county is in the lead in this
activity. Already a complete list
of the voters there has been COM
piled. Politicians are showing
much interest in this campaign
and many of them believe that
thorough Emethods of this sort are
bound to win. Prospective candi-
dates for office who have not made
up their minds on the suffrage
question have asked to see the poll
in their respective districts, indi-
eating that the issue is sure to be-
come an important one.

AS q result of the new school
code, which provides a new basis
for raising school revenues. some
of the districts have not made any
levies at all. Under the old law
school directors were frequently in
the habit Of making levies ire
spective of the exact needs of their
district. This led to the accumu-
lation of surplus school funds in
certain localities. The State Tax
payers League pointed out the in
justice of such procedure, and now
the directors are required to furnish
an estimate of forthcoming ex-
penses which they will have in
their district. The county COM
missioners arc then required to levy
sufficient sum to meet this esti-
mate, after deducting the receipts
from state and county apportion-
ment. In some counties, however.
it is reported that the commission
ers seem to have paid no attention
to the fact that directors had sur
plus funds on hand, but they have
made levies for schools Just the
same, thereby causing unnecessar-
ilv high taxes.
