WASHINGTON, d. c., May IL,
1909.-Dear Dad: Did you happen
to have noticed the geography of
the Aldrich tariff bill? Begin with
Maine; run down the Atlantic coast
to Florida; across the states that
border on the gulf; into Texas;
then to California; then up the
coast to Oregon. Run your pencil
down through the mountain states
of the west. Your pencil has mark
ed the states which will inc up and
give Mr.. Aldrich the necessary
votes. New England with it's
wooden and cotton schedules, and
the re-enactment of the Dingley
bill; West Virginia with it's new
concession of 40 cents the ton on
coal and some duties for it's iron
ores; the Carolinas and Florida
with the LUMBER tariff; the sugar
duties for the gulf sugar states;
lucent tax for citrus fruits and
canned goods for California-and
also lumber; the lumber duties for
the states Of the northwest, and
finally the protection for the wool.

New York's celebrated clairvoyant,
is permanently located here. His
honest method and % years Of sue
cess In all the leading cities of the
world have proven beyond all doubt
that KIRON is the leader in his
profession. AS proof of his Won
derful power he tells the name of
those who call and for what pur-
pose they call to consult him. He
tells as to all love and business
affairs, when and who you will
marry, whether husband, wife or
sweetheart is true or false; safe
and paying investments, buying or
selling property. Remember,
KIRON succeeds and it cost no
more to see the best. He de-
velopes personal magnetism-the
power of control-and how to win
the one you really love.
Cut this ad out. Low fee for a
few days. Remember the name,

NEW YORK, May 25.-Seven
o'clock in the morning. In Madi-
son avenue, fiocks of mothers, with
tiny children, pass along the pave
ments to the day nursery for Jew
ish children.
The beaming faces of the little
tots speak of good health and
happy spirits. They look like any
other Jewish children of New
York's east side.
But they're not. They are chill
dren whose lives have been direct
ly affected by one of the most ter
rible events in modern history-the
Russian massacre of Kishinev.
Either their fathers or their
mothers were killed in the massa-
ere or disappeared from the ken
of friends and relatives during the
terrible three days in the spring
of 1905.
The children are all bright and
intelligent; most or tnem are sup
ported by their mothers, who bring
them to the day nursery before 8
O'Clock in the morning and leave
them there until at night. The
young children are tended by
nurses and the elder ones have
their kindergarten training and
studies.
A glimpse at the nursery and its
work makes it look as if the Kishi-
new massacre gave to Uncle Sam
about 100 pretty solid prospective
citizens.
The pictures show Lily Cohen
whose father disappeared in Rus
STA during the massacre; Helen
Lagusy, whose father died as a
result of exposure during the ter
rible period jake Kaufman

The railroads were between the dev-
il CT rcduc ed traffic and the deep sea
of threatened general strike. Their
only apparent relief, if theys hoped TO
nav salaries and dividends, was to
raise freimht rates. Here they met
the opposition Of the shippers backed
By the preliminary investigation Of the
Interstate commerce comission. The
Southwestern association did advance
rates in July, and some southern lines
reduced wages, while nearly all lines
laid off men, In December came the
general announcement of 10 per cent
increase to take effect Jan. l, 1909.

possession of the Georgia Central,

went into effect, but hardly was 1t
started when bitter strike was called
to enforce a former contract for wage
increase. Riots and car dynamiting
tied up the lines for weeks, but the
city finally won. A deficit the first
two months gave way later to sur
plus, but the public, dissatisfied with
the service, voted in the Oct. 2 refer
endum against the municipal fran
chise, and few weeks later the COM
pany was thrown into receivership.

Uncle Sam Insists
Upon Carrying a Big Stick.

The administrations foreign policy
has exemplifed well this year a ia
vorite saying of the president, Speak
softly, but carry a big stick" This
nation has preserved good feeling to-
ward other nations, but at the same
time has sent it's battleship fleet to the
antipodes and devoted much thought
and money to navy and army better
mentS.
March IL at Magdalena bay the
fleet ended it's voyage around the
Horn, in command of Evans, and was
wildly welcomed all along the coast to
San Francisco. Evans then gave UP
the command to Sperry, and on July
7 the fleet sailed from San Francisco
on it's record breaking naval practice
cruise, visiting Hawaii, New Zealand,
Australia, Japan, China and the Phil
ippines before the years end.
The war department changed heads
July 1, Luke e. Wright succeeding
Taft.
On May 5 the state department con-
cluded a five year arbitration treaty
with Japan. On Nov. 80 notes were
signed containing an agreement with
Japan for concert Of action in main
tanning the status quo in the orient. 9
virtual alliance.
The treasury in January had def
cit of 100000, which grew to $50,
900 600 by the end OF the fiscal year.
The postoffice department, by order
of the president, ruled that papers IL
foreign languages must submit trans
lations and authorized postmasters tt
exclude papers containing fncitemen
to murder, arson and treason. In Ma!
the parcel limit to England was raised
to eleven pounds, and Oct. the posta
rate to that country was lowered to
cents, later the same to Germany.

Sterling liability bill was advanced BY
the majority and passed unanimously
in both houses. This holds interstate
carriers liable for injuries to employ
ees and abOlisheS the rule barring
compensation when the negligence OF
a fellow employee can be proved.
The Democratic flibuster was met
by a gag rule and daily recess until
the majority had accomplished its
purpose. This included provision for
two new battleships instead OF the
four urged by the president, higher
pay for army officers and privates ana
a liability law to protect employees In
the service of the government. The
house failed to pass the anti-injunc-
ton and antitrust amendment to the
Sherman law desired by the president
in the interest of labor. I'm God We

Congress reassembled Dec. and re-
ceived the final Roosevelt message, in
which executive control of legalized
trusts was advocated and judges were
urged to heed the will of legislators ac-
cording to present day standards. A
bitter controversy arose over one pas
sage which intimated that congress
had confined the secret service to the
treasury department because members
did not want to be investigated. The
senate moved an investigation of the
secret service. and the house demanded
proof of the presidents assertions.
