honor of the anniversary OF the Turk

inopportune moment for such discus

toned a warship in Suda Bay so that
the supreme rights of Turkey will not
be affected. The new guard ships are
larger vessels than formerly, Great
Britain having sent a ~battleship, Rus

tured iron and steel would be a ire
mendous relief TO almost every Ameri-
can industry. To wipe out the duty
on iron ore without touching that on
manufactured iron would give no re-
lief to the consumer; but it would cut
on one source of votes for the steel

Now. the compromise tariff as it
tands AT present does neither of
these things. 1t keeps duties at about
their present altitude on iron and steel
products: and therefore does not ligh
ten the burden on the consumer. 1t
reduces the tariff on iron ore, which
of course, profits the steel trust; but
il leaves enough duty on iron ore to

give them a direct interest in corrupt

for them.

ALL EYES TURNED ON
 PRINCESS HELEN
Washington Society Looks Forward With Delight to Her Coming Out.

Washington, March S.-From the reports which have come from Bryn Mawr the capital expects | rare treat when Miss Taft comes into her own, According to the stories that have come from the institution where she is student, she is said to he as popular as her father and that is saying q great deal. No one at Bryn Mawr is said to be more democratic and no one more full of fun and good spirits. She has been leader among the rollicksome spirits at the school, and while her 'larks" have been ones to which the faculty could not object in any way the girls who come from Bryn Mawr say that none that have occurred have been a greater source of enjoyment to the students.
 With information of this kind ut hand the society leaders of the cap ital can see all kinds of success in store for the Presidents daughter if she cares to play the role which they are certain will be forced upon her. So they are now anxious1y awaiting the time when Mrs. Taft will start her so-called campaign and Helen will be at her mothers side.
