TERRIBLE DISASTER.
Crowd Pressed Against Railing
Which Gave Way.

At Seattle, Wash. on Saturday
night nearly two hundred people were
injured, many fatally, when the iron
guard rail in the balcony of the
National Guard Armory gave way.
There was an exciting track race in
the pit below and the spectators had
crowded to the rail. 1t gave way
and some three hundred persons
were thrown into the pit, sixteen
feet below. They landed in tangled
mass of suffering, moving humanity.
Many arms and legs were broken,
besides several fractured skulls, and
most of the victims suffered serious
internal injuries. There was wild
panic inside Qand as jsoon as the
news became known thousands more
people tried to crowd into the build
ing. It took the entire police of the
city to hold them back. The armory
had just been finished and the ac-
cident is charged to the faulty con-
struction.

IMPORTANT TO FARMERS.
Supreme Court Decides Case in
Their Favor.


The Charleston Post say the United
States Supreme Court has just rem
dered two decisions, which are of
much in1srest TO truck growers
through the State, involving more
considerate treatment nthe part
of railroads in fostering the promo
ton of the industry. In both cas-
es j. n. Voorhees,. truck farmer in
ST. Andrews parish, was the plain
tiff, and the Atlantic Coast Line and
other roads the defendants. A de-
cision favorable to truck interests
was rendered in both suits.
Tn one case the nlaintiff shipped
six carloads of cabbages from St.
Andrews to New York. for the trans
nortation Of which the defendants
charged less than the carload rate.
because the initial carrier performed
the loading service. The decision
of the court is that these shipments
having been offered in carload guam
titles were entitled to the published
carload rate. and in the absence Of
snecific tariff provision. no additional
charge could be lawfully collected
from the complainant to cover load
ings service performed by the rail-
roas} comDany.
In the other case, on question of
reasonable rates. the court de-
cided that the charge Of sixty-three
cents per half-harrel crate was Gun
reasonable and rate of fcrty-eigh'
cents fairer one than the thirty
two cent rate which had been urged
by the complainant before the rail-
road commission. The orders Of
the court in both cases provide for
refund of excess charges. The
amount invloved is not large. but the
principle is OF much moment to the
truck farmers and the decision is
being received with much pleasure
and satisfaction.

Fooling the People.

The Republican party has fooled
the people of the North and West
so often that it's leaders think they
have the right to bunco them when
ever they feel like it. There are in
the Payne tariff bill several illustra-
tions to prove the above assertion
in the ingenious way in which duty
can be raised, which the artless con-
sumer is made to believe that it
has been lowered, says the Chicago
Tribune.
Take, for instance, linoleum, an
article of common use among those
who are not particularly we'll to do.
Under the present law there is a
duty of cents square yard and
Is per cent ad valorem on all under
twelve feet in width. On all over
that width the duty is 20 cents a
yard and 20 per cent ad valorem
The ways and means committee in
its summary of reductions says:
''Linoleum above nine feet from 90
cents square yard and 20 per cent
ad valorem to ~ cents and Is cents
ad valorem"
This is an increase, not decrease.
There were imported a year ago
about 100000 square yards OF linole-
um above twelve feet in width and
4.87G.OO0 square yards under that
width. Probably thrGo-fourfhs of
the goods paving the lower duty
ranged in width from over nine feet
to nearly twelve feet. So what really
is proposed is that the bulk of the
importations shall pay cents more
square yard than at present.
In the case of cast polished plate
glass an attempt is made to make
an increase in duty seem harmless
by coupling with it nominal de-
crease. The duties on all sizes under
720 square inches are raised That
covers the sizes employed for furni-
ture purposes. The duties on the
larger sizes are lowered Taking the
1907 importations as basis. this
would mean higher duties on about
100000 pounds of glass and a
decrease on 100000. The American
manufacturer can stand that trifling
cut, for he has protection of 1856
per cent on the larger sizes.
The farmer and the workingman
would be profoundly grateful to
congress for legislation giving them
cheaper window glass. They reioic-
ed. doubtless. when they saw that
mentioned among the articles on
which duties were to be reduced.
The laugh is on them, not on the
manufacturers. The duty is reduc-
ed little on sylinder. crown. and
common window glass above 24x30
inches. but not on the lower sizes.
The importations under that size
amount to 3O.OO0.OO0 pounds and
those above it to about 100000.
One glass manufacturer was hon.
means committee that his industry
could stand cut of 25 per cent
So it can. The difference between
the cost of production of a square
foot of polished plate glass in Bel
gium and the Uniteda States is a lit
tie over 3 cents. The present tariff |
gives as much protection as if the
difference were Is cents The con
sumer of this article of universal
use is paying too much for it now.
The committee on ways and means |
should have made genious instead
of sham reductions. Probably it
reckoned that they were being hum
bugged.
