Quoted From Taft

1t had to come at last. There has
been so mu.h cajolery by friends
like Aldrich and Lodge that some
body had to do It. So Bever-
idge did 1t.
Early in the senate's discussion OF
the tariff bill, Aldrich scornfnlly
repndiated the idea of revision down
ward by asking when the Republican
party had ever pledged itself to rev.
sion downward.
Afterward Lodge put IL positively
that the Republican platform of
last year didn't promise revision
downward.
Mr.. Taft couldn't say anything to
the contrary. He had made tariff
speeches dn the east and tariff
speeches in the west as far apart log
ically as geographically.
Beveridge leapcd in to the branch
He quoted Taft's campaign speeches
to prove that 'tthe pending bill does
not provide for the kind of revision
which the president advocated
while making his csmpaign."
What speeches did he quote from
The speeches. Mr.. Taft made at
Cincinnati, at Milwaukee and at Des
Mohes-all "out west" you see.
And so the game goes meru'ily on,
the friends" know what they're
about and the victims don't. Selah!

SHOWS A
BIG DEFICIT
Expenditures of tn e Govern
meut in May Far Ex-
ceeded the Receipts.

Washington, June 2.-The treas.
ury deficit for the month OF May Is
shown by yesterdays statement to
have been s. ,453 1855 and for the eiev.
en- months OF the current fiscal year
deficit of $97S5S, ,102 10 indicated.
The aRalable cash balance; was
$l1S 979,764, and the working balance
was $i0,S29 600. The total receipts
for May were s53 ,S32 $40 and the dis
tbursements 1856 PCS. =
This showing is much more favor
able than was expected by the Off
c.als as late as three months age
and Indicates that the deficit for the
full fiscal year will fail considerably
short OF the Official estimate OF $112,-
100000. The working balance is not
however, regarded as fully adequate
to the probable needs of the treas
dlry, for any considerable length of
time and while the necessity for ad-
ditional cash Is not pressing. 1T is
believed that the officials will take
adytange of the present easy money
conditions throughout the country
by calling on the national depository
banks for the return TO the treasury
Of a considerable part of their hold
ings.
These banks now have deposits sub
1ect TO treasury Check aggregating
about $62,774,OO0, and 1t is believed
that a government interest would not
suffer by withdrawal OF at least
$50 100000 of this sum. This
strengthening of the working balance
undoubtedly would place the treas
ury in position to await without
spedial concern the, passage of the
pending tariff bill with any incidental
authorization as to bond issues which
congress may see fit TO grant.

other section expressly provides
that "in each village there shall be
elected In all respects, according to
the provisions of this act, one real
estate assessor who shaul have the
same powers and duties as are here
inbefore conferred upon sush ASSESS
ors FOR townships"
The act authorizes the city board
to employ a clerk and expert assist
ants, but no such assistance Is pro-
vided for the lone assessor who will
he expected to appraise the real
estate i'm village having frcm
5000 to 1000 population.
The land assessor In any village
having more than 5000 population is
going to be a busy man between JAM
15 and July l next year, witnan
which time he is required by the
law to complete his work.
In gil probability there will be ad-
ditional legislation at the next ses-
sion TO relieve the burden OF the
single assessor In the diversified viii
lagos. Unless this 81 done there Will
be villages of from 5000 to 1000
where one man will be expected to
do as much work as board of five
men width clerk, and probably 9TH
er assistants, Is to perform in city
OF the same size.
The law provides for filing vaean-
cies In cities and townships resulting
from failure to elect or any other
cause, but no such provision is made
for villages. This will also require
attention at the next session.

new CRUSADE
AGAINST TRUSTS
President Taft Makes &
Move Beginning Where
Roosevelt Lett Of.

Washington, June 2.-WflLam II.
TAFT said during the campaign that
one of the principal works during
the next administration was to carry
cut dIhe Roosevelt policies. He wax
earnest in THAT statement but with
the mental reservation that only
chose policies he considered practic-
able should be carried out and that
the erusades started by Roosevelt
shat could be finished should lie
finished within the shortest time.
With that idea he sent yesterday
for Herbert Knox Smith, head oi
the bureau OF corporations, and
asked him for a report AT once on
all the Investigations of corporations
that he is conducting. Mr.. Smith
expressed desire to finish the In
yestigation, but pleaded that he has
not enough men to cover the field
opened by Mr.. Roosevelt. The bureau
OF corporations has 1870 "sleuthsv in
the field. Examiners" is their title
on the official roll.
Mr.. Roosevelt started inquiry in
TO the steel Trust, harvester trust,
machinery combination, cotton ex-
changes, lumber, water transporta-
tlions, water power and the tobacco
trust. The president wishes reports
on these at the earliest moment, as
he and the attorney general with the
help of Secre ary Klox and Secretary
Nagel expect to weed out from the
mass of cases those that can be pros
ecuted with reasonable expectation
of good results.

Coercion and Retrospection

Near the close of the campaign
lasr fall employees Of the Big -Four
railroad were gathered into the COM
pany's shops at Bellefontane and
told TO vote for Taft.
A report states that the Big -Four
-Four shops at BeIlefontaine closed
down May 20 for am indefinite
time, and that the shutdown is
keenly felt in that city.
New whole sermon could be
preached about this incident, hut
is IL ne:essanya A vacation will
give the men who work In the car
shops at Bellefontadne time to think
IL over.
That's the way 1t goes-all the
people some OF the time and some
OF the people all the time.

1t appears that Elmer Dover did
not get into the Taft band wagon
soon enough and that fact will cause
him to lose the big New York banl,
examinership. This fact emphasizes
the Importance of being the original
boomer of the man that wins or OF
one attending to his own business
and only considers giving his tims
to the public business when he is
called by his country. This latter is
not only the dignified but it is the
true position of an American citizen.
But Col. Dover will come in between
and while he will fail to land a s12.-
600 position he may lift himself into
one with emoluments amounting to
four or five thousand per.

LAND APPRA|SEMENT IS
A PERP[EX|NG QUESTION
Men Chosen in Villages Which Have Out Grown Their
Small Clothes will be Very Busy-New York
Legislators Criticised for the Same Thing
Ohio Soons Did.

Columbus, o., June 2 Ohio has q
number of thriving little cities that
are still under the village form OF
government. This Is because their
population was below 5000 when the
federal census was taken In 1900.
Although these villages may nave
largely increased in population since
1900, they must remain in the viii
lage class until after official am
nountement OF the result OF the fed
eral census TO be taken next year
Then all such villages which show q
population OF about 5000 will be en-
titled to become full-fedged cities
and assume the city form of govern
ment.
Shall these diversified villages have
more than one land assessor under
the new law passed at the special
session OF the legislature for the re-
appraisement of real estate next
year? 1t will be important to all
such villages TO have this question
answered authoritat.vely beiore the
election mex. November, at which
land assessors for 1910 are to be
elected
In the first section OF the new law
1t Is required that such boards of
city and Village assessors shall per-
form their duties as defined herein
only In the territory in which he or
they are elected" The act then
proceeds TO provide for the election
OF a board OF five in cities but
makes no provision for similar
boards in the larger villages. An-
