TAFT DISCUSSES THE TARIFF
Strongly Favors Reduction Of Duty on
Necessities.

Strongly Favors Reduction Of Duty on
Necessities.
Washington, March 3O.-President
Taft talked tariff with Senator Hale
Of the senate finance committee, with
Representative Dalzell of Pennsyl-
vania, with Representative Hinshaw
Of Nebraska and with John Barrett,
director of the Bureau of American
Republics. It is said that the presi-
dent is letting it be understood that
he strongly favors reduction Of the
tariff on all of the necessities Of life.
The Payne bill repeatedly has been at
tackled in the house debate as impos-
ing too heavy burden upon the poor
and as favoring the richer classes.
The impression that has been created
by so much of this talk has been any
thing but gratifying to the admins
tration, it is claimed, and matters
have not been greatly improved by
the criticism that too much considera-
ton appears to be in prospect for the
special interests and not enough for
the consuming public.
President Taft is known to be
strongly opposed to the proposed tax
on tea. It is stated that this tax
would yield about $8,OO0,000 annually.
The president believes that this
amount could be made up by an excise
tax on the dividends of corporations
or by some methods of stamp taxation.
He does not believe that the burden
Of raising this additional $8,000,000
should be placed upon the rank and
file of consumers.

Brinkman Show Is Fine.

An unusually excellent program
is being rendered this week at the
Brinkman Family Theater in which
the vaudeville features are drawing
large crowds every evening.
Redwood & Gordon, in their must
cal and singing act, are showing a
development in their line which is
simply marvellous for such low
priced attraction. Mr.Redwood plays
the cornet in professional manner,
his double and triple tongueing
delighting the local lovers of this
class of music. Miss Gordon's rem
dition of "Japanee, from the Isle Of
Spice" and las Long as the World
Rolls On" draws rounds of applause
from the audience.

and have a reputation which needs
no lauding before the Bemidji public.
Admirers of expert Juggling will
not fail to see this wonderful couple
in their astonishing performances.
The films this week are fully up to
the high standard maintained by
Manager Brinkman in this we'll
known family theater. ~

City Marshal OF Trenton, Mo-, Fatally
Wounded.

Trenton, Mo-, March 3O.-While
heading a posse of citizens who were
in pursuit of two safeblowers City
Marshal George Caraway was shot
and probably fatally wounded here.
The safeblowers had robbed two
stores at Spickard, near here, and es-
capped on hand car. Local authori-
ties were notified and were at the
right of way just outside Trenton,
armed and ready to meet them. In
stead Of coming on hand car, how
ever, the robbers arrived on train.
They were no sooner located by the
posse than lively exchange of shots
ensued. Caraway dropped with the
first volley, disorganizing the pur-
suers, and in the excitement the rob.
bers made their escape.
Three Of the robbers were cornered
later by the posse on the McCue farm,
two miles south Of the town of James.

PLANS FOR WATERWORKS
EXTENSION SUBMITTED
Continued from First Page

Beltrami. This S-inch main is to
eventually extend west on Second to
Park, thence north on Park to pump
ing station, which, when all is com.
pleted, will give three distinct feed
mains from the pumping station,
being two 1O-inch mains and one g.
inch main.
By laying the new ten-inch main
on Fourth street instead of Third,
considerable trouble and money
can be saved, as it would not con-
fict with the many service pipes
and sewer connections now laid on
Third.
With large feed main on Fourth
street and another on Second, the
pipe friction will be reduced to a
minimum in the business district.
Thirty-seven gate valves would be
used on the new system, which
would allow of from one to two
blocks of mains to be cut off at any
time, without affecting the rest OF
the system. All hydrants fed by a
6-inch main or larger will be of the
large size, have 6-inch connection
and the ma jority of them will have
steamer connections.
In the matter of erecting the new
steel tower and tank for the water
works plant, the council instructed
City Engineer Stoner to write to the
Chicago Bridge x Iron company anc
ascertain if that concern were will
ing to renew their bid of So, $3.50
which they had submitted last fall
for the putting in of the tower anc
tank. The company had recently
requested the return of their certified
check, but as steel has decreased If
price it was believed that the com
pany would renew their bid. The
matter was laid over until the mex
meeting, when the council will decide
whether to advertise for new bids OF
not.
Mr.. Stoner also recommended the
digging of a new we'll, in connection
with the waterworks plant, and the
use of a triplex pump. In Mr.. Sto
ner's opinion the new we'll and thu
triplex pump would furnish 500 gal
Ions of water per minute, and per
haps 900, which would triple the
amount furnished now, which i!
about 200 gallons.
1t is the intention of the council tt
rush as rapidly as possible the work
of installing the new waterwork:

he asked. "Shall it be left to Andrew

CITIES ARE FILLED WiIH
 UNOESiRA6lE WOMEN

Our cities are filled with miserable women, heart-sick men and blighted homes, due to a lack of instruction for girls in the grammar and high-school courses in the fundamentals of home economies" This was the statement made by President Cree T. Work, of the College of Industrial Arts, Denton, Texas in an address at the National Educational Association Convention, today.
 The Speaker, in the address which was delivered before the department of manual training. pleaded for the more general introduction into the public school curriculum of arts and sciences related to home interests. President Work recognized the desir- ability of vocational schools for wom- en. but emphasized the idea that the courses in such schools should also provide thorough practical training in honereeonomies. because, what ever the present ambitions and otcu- pations of the girls, they vii. some day have homes to direct.
 Our girls know the 'how,s-ef the art of housekeeping and home1maklng at least fully as well as their mothers.
  said the speaker The financial prob lens of the home and household ac- counts must be studied. A practical acquaintance with the problems of adds to the freedom and comfort of women and girls, and also prepares them for taking their part in safeguarding the home against the impositions of conscienceless com mercial world. Through such train jag time and opportunity are gained for the all-important intellectual and social life of the hime.
 The training of teachers. provision for extension and demonstration work in home economies. and the further in. troduction of industrial arts and sciences into the curricula of our ele- mentary and secondary schools. were pointed out as most important steps to be taken for the preservation and upbuilding of the American home.
