TECHNICAL, 5; WESTERN, Q

A large majority Of those persons who
saw the Western Tech game at National
Park yesterday are today opining it was
the best the high school championship
series have unearthed thus far To the
general audience It was. To the foot
ball experts it was not.
That a lone touchdown separated the
two elevens was not the impressive fea-
ture Of the game Il was the equality
or near-equauty IN weight and strength
Of the competing teams. Tech probably
had a slight shade in both, but If was
very slight. With four Of their best
men debarred the Manual Trainers went
into the game a sadly different lot from
that that had appeared on the field in
The two preceding games against East
ern and Central. The substitution of i'm
experienced material practically destroy
ed all signs of the team work which the
regular eleven had shown. and it was
not until late in the first half that Tech
got TO going with anything like its GUS
tomary smoothness.
Criticism Unfair.
Some few who saw the regular Tech
team perform are Unfavorably criticising
the game which it put up yesterday
without considering the disadvantages
under which it Iabored. With the ex-
ception OF the Tech rooters. everybody
wanted to see Western win That was
natural It was the old case of siding
with the under dog. Pitted against
the OUTFIT which Coach Hecox was forced
to put into the field yesterday Western
was more nearly on a par with its op-
pouents than any other two teams that
have played on the scholastic gridiron
this season.
But Tech is always Tech TO the other
schools. and very few took the trouble
20 deIve into close comparison Of the
teams. They simply judged the teams
on past performances. and. accordingly.

WOman'S Revenge.

One woman's idea OF revenge was
brought out by an application for a
warrant made yesterday of the
county attorney by Mrs. Harriet
Hartman, living near the Santa Fe
shops on the Oakland car line. The
name of the woman whose arrest Mrs.
Hartman asked is not known.
Mrs. Hartman and neighbor had
been quarreling for weeks. The row
had reached such a stage that the
second party adopted drastic measures
to secure her revenge. The neighbor
woman had a voice which sounded
exactly like Mrs. Hartman's.
The woman, it is said, called up all
of Mrs. Hartman's friends over the
telephone. She is alleged to have
abused them, and prior to hanging
up the receiver, to have told them
that she never wanted them to speak
to her again on the streets
Next day Mrs. Hartman, in pa' sing
down the streets, met several of her
friends All passed her by, heads in
the air and noses tilted to an angle of
ninety-five degrees. Aad the same
thing happened for the next week;
every time Mrs Hartman went out
on the street she was met with frowns
and lifted chins.
In despair, several days folio Wing
the closing spat Of the Oat land
neigh bors, Mrs. Hartman picked up
courage to stop one of her friends to
INQUIRE into the cause of their super
slousness.
"Do you think we are going tn
speak to you when you talk the way
you did over the telephone?" said the
former friend. ''We thought you
We're lady"
Questions and explanations followed
IN dick succession. This explained
the actions of her other friends. She
/ Immediately went to the county at
torney and asked for the arrest OF the
neighbor woman. The statutes were
carefully read but Lone were found
TO cover the offense for which the
warrant was asked Topeka Capital.

Prof. PiHet Elected.

The vacancy caused in the super
intendency OF our schools by the res
ignation Of Prof. Myers was filled
last Friday night by the selection of
Prof. .. L. Pinet, for the past five
years superintendent of the Erie
schools.
Mr.. Pinet is well know in Chanute,
having taught here several years ago
aud given very general satisfaction.
A number of his former pupils are
now high school pupils and have the
highest regard for Prof. Pinet.
We believe the board did just th=
right thing in calling a meeting and
securing Mr.. PInet while his services
we at their disposal.
The Erie board acted 10 a very
generous manner In releasing MI.
Pinet from his contract there when
they found he could so materially
better himself. Mr.. Pinet is an am
bilious growing young man of good
educational qualifications and tried
and successful disciplinarian. Cha
mute Is fortunate.

Barn Burned.

The big barn on the Mark Gibson
farm was entirely destroyed by fire,
last Monday forenoon. Mr.. j. W.
Pelphrey who lives en- the farm
was threshing and running the straw
into the barn. All at once the whole
inside of the barn was seen to be on
fire. The fire spread so rapidly and
made things so hot the separator and
stacker Of the machine crew were
burned.
Mr.. Gibson estimates that he will
lose several hundred dollars above
the $500 insurance he carried. MI
Pelphrey, the tenant, lost several hun
dred bushels of grain and most of his
farm implements. He carried $500
insurance but that will not nearly
cover his loss.
1t is hardly thought the fire started
from the engine as 1t was over hun
bred feet away and favorable wind

Marker Report.
Kansas City Stock Yards, Aug. o, 1908

Kansas Clty STOCK YARDS, aug. y, lJUt
Cattle sellers had the advantage
last week, and scored the unusual feat
for the month of August Of getting
an advance of 10 to 20 cents on killing
grades during the week. Stockers
and feeders remained about steady
during the week, with a little less
urgen cy IN the demand than might
have been expected in view OF the
splendid crop prospects 10 every
direction. The run of cattle was
Al, 900 last week, including 1900 calves,
which was ABOUT 20 percent smaller
than same week last year. Receipts
of cattle today more nearly approach
normal for this time of the year,
20, 600 head here, including 5000 calves.
Good fed steers, she stuff and stockers
and feeders are steady today, calves
strong, but grass steers are to Is
lower. Yearling steers made 81 40 60
81 so today, and heavy steers 81 %,
as high as any time last week, grass
steers from Native territory 1925 to
So 90. grass cows and heifers So 90 to
"a 80, bulls $500 to $4.25, calves Sd 90
to 81 co. Prospective trade in stock
and feeding cattle this fall is occupying
good dea, of the attention of dealers
now, and a good many believe that
prices will remain up to the present
figures through the fall months
in spite of increased receipts. Feeders
sell at 81 100 to So 10, stock steers SO 90
to So IS. More good quality heavy
feeders could have been handled in
the last week than we're offered.
Receipts Of hogs last week were
only 80 600 head here, not much more
than half the run previous week. and
the big contraction IN the supply was
a result of the near panic effected by
the packers in the market previous
week. Packers bung last week but
were unable to resist the upward
trend of the market due to light runs,
and close showed an advance of 20 TO
% cents for the week. The hog
market is hand to mouth affair, as
packers refuse TO put up the expensive
product, and the protest over price
has Is taking on stentorian tones. |
In view of conditions it would seem
good policy to ma ket stock without
delay after it becomes suitable. Run
here today is 5000 hog, market 10 to
10 lower, with slight recovery at the
close, top $3.50. bulk 81 80 to 81 IS,

Tariff Should be High
Enough.

|
1t is erroneous to suppose or believe
that the import duty is always added
to the price Of the article which Is
imported. All commercial ex-
perience demonstrates the error of
this opinion. Many articles in line
of goods Ia which there are no i'm
portations are sold at less price
than the duty which is imposed.
The Tariff duty In such cases serves
to keep the foreigner out and give
the American manufactures full
possession Of the American market.
1t is usually the case that under such
circumstances American competition
serves to keep prices down.
1t pearly always happens that when
1t is noised around a neghborhood
that a certain man or a certain factory
is making money there are plenty to
90 into the business. AS an example 4,
take the calendar business, which, is
a growth of the past fifteen years.
There was a great calendar manu-
factory at Red Oak, Ia. The proprietor
of it made vast sum OF money.
He then removed to the East and
another man put In calendar
mandatory in Red Oak and also
made money.
Take another instance. A man put
ina glove factory at Grinnell, La.
The information reached the public
that Morrison, Of Grinnell, was
getting rich In the glove business.
Teen Cownie o ened glove factory
in Des Mones and other factories
were established in the state. The
American is quick to catch on when
some other man beginsto make money.
Therefore, when the Tariff ia high
enough to prevent importations' If it
is then made higher still, 40 harm is
done. Il dixie is high enough to
keep the water out, it does no part
ocular harm to build it higher. II it
is low enough to let the water over,
1t might as well be lower still.
The same is true with the Tariff
The voter must bear these facts in
mind. He may not want Tariff at
all. Thousands Of Americans lock
upon the Tariff as cold blo0ded robbery.
Such men should not vote for any
Kind OF a Tariff. They want America
to be free for all. They want goods
cheap regardless Of the place where
they were made.
Germany has Tariff, in most re
spects very high. The same is true
of France. Japan has Tariff that
would make the American Tariff look
like thirty cents. But we are candid
ly of the belief that the American
Protective System will ultimately be
abolished. Then the revenue must
come from direct taxes. The Tariff
will 10 some form outlive the present
generation. Therefore, the people
must give some attention to it.-Des
