can be plenty of coal mines right out

Congressman Edwards has certainly
been lucky, for the $105,000 Custom

on Failure.
The man who works hard usually
plays hard. But he always remem-

Regret is the corrosive sublimate
OF life. Determination to not make
the mistake again is the antidote.
Take it.

IN WASHINGTON
Tariff Bill Nearly Done.-Civil Ser
vice Commission investigation -
Taft Butts In"
Washington, d. c.

July 10, 1909.
Pres. Taft has ''butted in" at last
After refusing for weeks to express
himself on tariff matters, he has fin
ally let IL be known that he will
take hand in the game, and make
every effort to force the Congress to
redeem the pledges he made during the
campaign. It is understood that he
will veto the bill unless this is done,
and that he will require a LIBERAL
Interpretation of the pledges too.
The first question which came up
was over the Corporation Tax provi-
sion. 1t was suggested that this
might be dropped out, but Taft serv-
ed notice that he would not sign a
tariff bill without that provision in
1t. So the tax will stay. 1t will pro-
baby be one per cent instead of two,
but the important thing is the prin-
ciple, and that will be secure.
Then came other matters of rates
In the main tariff bill, and it is I'M
derstood that Mr.. Taft will demand
the following
Free hides.
House rates on iron and steel.
House rate on lumber.
Free crude oil, without the counter
vailing duty.
Senate rate on coal, although the
president would prefer that this COM
modify be admitted free.
Senate rates on cotton gloves and
hosiery, but cotton schedule gener-
ally that the people will approve.

Washington, ID. G.
July IL, 1909.

The tariff bill is now in it's final
stage. A Senate committee and
House committee are trying to har-
monte the bill as it passed the
House with the bill as it passed the
Senate. Probably they will be done
by the middle of next week.
After a good deal Of skirmishing
in the early part of last week the
Senate finally passed the bill on
Thursday night at eleven o'clock. Mr..
Aldrich served notice on Thursday
morning that he would insist that
the Senate pass the bill on that day,
~ taking off the seven o'clock ad-
Journment rule under which they had
been working,-and the Senate obey
ed, although Mr.. LaFollette felt forced
to make a few final remarks for two
hours late in the evening before he
could allow his first oratorical chance
at tariff bill to be extinguished.
On Friday the House convened
prom tly at noon, and at 1908 p. m.
the dill was messaged over from the
Senate Repi sentative Dalzell, as
chairman OF the Rules Committee, re-
ported a special resolution by which
tie House disagreed with the SAT am
endmea,s to its bill which had been
made in The upper house and sent
The bill into conference in the hands
of a committee without instructions.
The House was inclined to be very
critical of the Senate bill, and for
three hours INDUCED in an attack up
on the wisdom or rather the unwisdom
of the Senators. The Democrats Of
course took the lead in protesting
against the raise In the tariff taxes,
but the Republicans also expressed
dislike of the Senate's treatment of
the bill. However upholders of the
bill we're not lacking, and they took
pleasure in pointing out that to the
indignant Democrats that the Demo-
Gratis of the Senate had been almost
as influential as the Republicans in
rate-raising.
The "insurgent" Republican repre-
sentatives wished to have the Sem
ate amendments thoroughly talked
over in the House before sending
the bill to conference, so that the
House conference committee could
be instructed exactly how to act. They
thought that this would have prevent
ed the conferree3 of the two houses
from agreeing on the high rates of
the Senate bill. Their showing was
extremely weak, however, and it
appears likely that they will figure
very little in House affairs in the
future.
There was split within the ranks
of the House organization, however,
of a more serious sort. Serene Payne
who framed the House bin, as
Chairman of the Ways and Means
Committee, has been very much dis
pleased with the rough way in which
Senator Aldrich has been handling
his schedules, and Mr.. Mccall and
Mr.. Hill have shared his feelings,
and have talked against the Senate
increases without reserve. Uncle Joe
Cannon, on the other hand, believes
In raising protection just as high as
he possibly can, and has been on the
most cordial terms with Mr.. Aldrich.
So when it came time to appoint the
members of the conference committee

A Plain ralk on stxIs..

ST. Paul Pioneer Press: Prof. Rich
ard Burton had the temerity to ex-
press what most other men think
when he said, cit is a perfect surprise
to me that intelligent women appar-
emily become as little children when
1t comes to hats. This years styles
are inconceivable. They are perfect
nightmare" .
The professor was treadins on dan
gerous ground. But probably ne
rushed in before he thought, at the
conclusion of his lecture at the St.
Paul Institute club rooms. While not
commencing his recl1lessness, a very
large number Of his fellowmen, who
are interested in the subject In an
inpersonal and amateur way, will in
dorse all he said, and then some.
The styles that are being foisted
onto womankind, some of the things
the women are wearing In the name OF
fashion are reelection upon their In
telligence. Not one among the
owners of fall hats will undertake 20
defend the shapes or trimmings on
, the theory that they are artistic or in
good taste. The only excuse Il that
the hats are fashionable. 1t is well to
be in fashion. No woman wants to
wear anything that is out of style, but
why not make the styles rational?
II women OF taste would insist upon
millinery that does not go to extremes
| there soon would be an end of the
present struggle for the outlandish.
Those who have no very marked ideas
regarding what is artistic would fol-
| low the lead OF women who know. It
no longer would be a case of taking
what 1t decreed to be stylish, but
what is in good taste as well as what
is bloomington even the things they
are building nowadays cannot spoil the
attractiveness OF their wearers.
| If the hats OF today added anything
to the general effect there would be
some excuse. But they do not. The
only object seems to be to have each
succeeding crop so different that there
will be no possibility OF wearing last
springs headgear this fall without all
the neighbors knowing 1t. 1t is not q
case of striving for the artistic. nor
even an attempt at improving what
nature has done.
Many of the feminine artifices used
to be excused on the theory that they
were intended to add the finishing
touches to the picture. In the old, days
/ II was possible to augment a supply OF
tresses by working in a switch or 81
without any one being the wiser.
Probably other things were done, too
that masculine admirers never sus-
pected. But those days have passed
The women have thrown discretion ia
the winds and have loaded on topknots
composed OF rats, puffs and other
things, that do not fool even the most
unsophigticated OF old bachelors.
l What is the use Of II all? Why moi
get back to first principles? The wo-
men OF some cities may be in need OF
artificial ornamentation. but such il
not the case in st. Paul. If the women
OF the east Of Paris or London feel
that they must wear the things that
are In style now that is no reason why
Il those In the west should be expected
