LUMBERMEN ACTIVE.
Three months ago it seemed certain that lum-
! her would be placed on the free list in the bill
| framed hv the Ways and Means Committee
| Now it is we'll understood that the lumber duty
will be reduced from 81 TO 81 a thousand Nearly
/ every industry has been represented in Wash
| ineton since the committee took up the tariff
| question but the Iumberren have been here IN
| greatest force. and have made the most mead
| Uav They were able to enlist material support
| from Democrats as Northern capital is develop
! ing great timber tracts in the South. At tn
outset the Iumbermeu had 20 meet the move

| sources They were face TO face with those "ho
| FOR wears had been arguing that the only way
! to save the nations timber supply was TO place
| lumber on the free list In their campaign TO
/ secure the retention OF the lumber tariff the
| lumbermen have enlisted the support of clifford
| Pinchot chief Of the government forest service
and other well known friends Of the tree. They
! are not content with the 81 rate. and now are

| There seems 70 be little room for doubt that

free list and 20 reduce the duties on shoes. The

TROUBLE OVER WOOL AND COFFEE.
The wool schedule gave the Ways and Means
Committee more trouble than almost any other
part Of the bill. An effort made to work
out plan for taxing wool and wool products on
an ad vaIorem basis. Some Of the witnesses Ne
fore the committee said this could be done.
Chairman Payne and his colleagues tried TO do

PORTLAND, MAINE, CHILD
III, Weak and Emaciated, Re-
stored to Health bv Vinol

stored to Health Dy V1nOl
"Our little daughter, six years of age,
after a severe attack Of the measles,
which developed into pneumonia, was
left pitifully thin, weak and emaciat-
ed. She had no appetite, and her stom-
ach was so weak it could not retain
food. She lay in this condition for
weeks. and nothing the doctor pre-
scribed did a bit of good, and we were
beginning to think she would never re-
cover.
AT this time we commenced to give
her Vinol, and the effect was marvel
Gus. The doctor was amazed at her
progress, and when we told him we
were giving her Vinol, he replied, 1t
is a fine remedy, keep it up We did
so, and she recovered her health and
strength months before the doctor
thought she could" J. w. Flagg,
Portland, Me.
Vinol cures conditions like this be-
cause in a natural manner it increases
the appetite, tones up the digestive
organs, makes rich, red blood, and
strengthens every organ in the body.
.Vinol is sold in Newberry by
VIM. E. Pelham & Son.

PORTO RICO ADVANCES.
Natives a Fine People and Glad OF
American Rule.

"Porto Rico, since it has come un-
der American rule, has made wonder
full progress in every possible man
ner,'' said Lee Nixon, assistant post
master at San Juan, Porto Rico. to
Washington Herald reporter. MT.
Nixon is in this country on leave. and
will in day or two 60 to lnd1anapo-
lis, his home.
"Porto Ricans are a fine people, =
he continued, land [ am Of the opln-
ion THAT their status for citizenship
should be definitely established by
law. They should be given American
citizenship. They deserve it. Under
the present conditions they are cltl-
zens nowhere. They are different
from any foreigner. who can forswear
his allegiance to the country he came
from and become citizen OF the
United States, i'm THAT Porto R1can
has no country whose. allegiance ne
can forswear.
EVERY town in Porto Rico closed
the past fiscal year with a surplus,
(which has never happened until now,
there always being deficits. This is
due to the higlrly' efficient admiallstra-
ltion. The executive council OF the Is
land has direct supervision over all
municipal affairs.
"When the Americans came to
Porto Rico i'm 1898, there were 25,OOO
school children, and now, after nine
years of American efforts, there are
$4,000 school children enrolled. In
1898, Just after the Spaniards left the
island, there were 625 schools; today
there are 1,751. Public school edu-
! cation before the advent Of the Amer
leans was practically an unknown
thing; now there is a general desire
for knowledge and education among
the old as we'll as the young.
"It is i'm Improvements which are
bo1rrd to benefit Porto Rico In ma
terial sense that great progress has
been made since the island has come
rnder American sway. Spain in her
possession cf Itlre island. for more
tIp:r 400 wears, spent something like
S3.OOO,0OO on roads. She built one
great road across the island. This Is
e:bout all that was done in making OF
! public highways. The Americans
have brought about a greater prog
reSs along these hines. as We'll as along
all other lines Of public improvement.
cover $5,OO0,0OO have been spent
in Ehe last ten years on roads. Rall-
roads are being built all over the IS
land. and there is not q, town in Por-
to Rico that is not fitted ont and sup
piled with telegraph and telephone
service. Piers are being built and
nearly every town Is constructing
aa,leducts to insure supply of fresh
water. Three million dollars have
BEEN approq>riated for irrigation pur-
poses to develop sugar plantations.
