A base ball meeting was held in the

at which ]. w. Elliott was cleo
ted manager. 1t was suggested that a
captain be elected but it was decided
to leave that to some future time.
The work of clearing off the grounds
has been been going on steadily the
past week. A grandstand and back
stop will probably be erected by Sun
day. The boys have already turned
out to practise and it is likely that a
practice game between the first and
second teams will be pulled off Sunday.
Manager Elliott says he intends to ar
range games with all the amateur
teams thruout the state if possible.
An unusual amount of interest is be-
ing taken by the ball enthusiasts and
it is likely that a strong team will be
maintained this summer.

reducing the lumber rate one-haH the

In arms.
The committee was understood TO
have placed hides on the free list.
This was glorious news for the shoe
factories. They have to buy leather
to make shoes and If the duty IS taken
of hides leather viii Of course be
cheaper and the profit on making shoes
viii be greater. If there IS one thing
more than another that all shoe manu-
facturers are agreed on il is that the
tariff should remain on shoes Just as
high as il IS now or perhaps a little
higher to protect the American work
ing man from having to work At pau

it will be fifty cents cheaper. The in
dications are that your next dollars

with your saving on sugar. The
government needs the money. It's a

hole. In the face OF which some
people expect that the tariff will be

get that the present tariff lacks the

Oh, yes, but they are going to tax in

base attack upon the poor rch, who
already have troubles enough in de-
vising ways to spend their money,
without being harrassed with income
and inheritance taxes. A view which
congress will doubtless take Of the
matter.
We agree with that man, Winfield

said the tariff is local issue" but it
seems to present national problem.
