The TARIFF PROBLEM
MR.. CARNEGIE SAYS 1T SHOULD
BE SOLVED BY EXPERTS.
He Declares Congress Is Incapable Of
Fixing Equitable Schedules-Pre-
diets Great Changes.

New York City.-Andrew Carne-
gle yesterday declared that congress
is incapable of fixing a just tariff
schedule, and that a permanent BIZ
partisan commission of experts is the
only solution of the ever troublesome
tariff problem. Mr.. Carnegie urged
that all manufacturers of the country
attend the national tariff commission
convention, which assemblies at In
dianapolis on February 16. He also
asserted that the average congress-
man, as rule, is unequipped by train
ing or knowledge to fairly deal with
such an abstruse proposition as tariff.
Mr.. Carnegie's views were made
known to a representative of "Ameri-
can Industries" the official publica-
tion of the National Association Of
Manufacturers. He said:
"The difficulty with tariff commits
sions or regulators composed of men,
bers of congress is that these gentle
men are necessarily uninformed upon
the true conditions of the varied in
dustries. Evidence given by inter-
ested parties cannot be depended up
on as disinterested Interested peo-
pie form distorted views, colored as
these are by their own interests. This
is inevitable. Such is human nature
They may not wish to deceive. They
are themselves deceived
There should be a permanent staff
of able, disinterested men, charged
with studying conditions in all manu-
featuring countries. The industrial
world is about to undergo the most
momentous change known in it's his
tory, even more far reaching than was
the change from the individual domes-
tic manufacturer, manufacturing at
home, to the factory system and the
huge establishments of to-day. We
are rapidly losing competition in ar
ticles of general consumption upon
which nations have hitherto depended
to insure reasonable prices for the
consumer. Some of our most impor-
tant industries to-day are only nomin-
ally competitive and in reality are
mohopolies, so far as an understand
ing exists as to prices that will pre-
vail.
hCoC VII Iudl luuSI Dt
controlled in some way or other. A
supreme industrial court will have to
be created, and eventually will have
to pass upon prices-disguise this as
we may. This is even a larger ques-
tion than the tariff, but our trouble
with revisions of the tariff will be
greatly overcome by a body of ex-
perts, keeping themselves fully in
formed of all matters pertaining to
the question. The new industrial
court may make steps, as our inter
state commerce commission may, but
both will gradually create traditions
and make decisions which will be
guides for the future. 1t would be
we'll for our captains of industry gen
orally to attend the forthcoming con-
vention and get true understanding
of the problems involved, that they
may be prepared to pass upon the
suggested remedies"

STOLEN MONEY WELL INVESTED.
Thief Returns Amount Taken with
More Than Compound Interest.

The happiest man in New York is
Adam Brede, chef in a lunchroom.
Over 20 years ago Brede deposited $50
in the Seamans' Bank for Savings.
With a friend he attended festival
that night, and when he left the hall
he found that both his friend and his
handbook had disappeared. The other
night he encountered his friend. who
greeted him effusively, and said:
Here is that handbook, Adam. 1t
has hurt my conscience for 20 years,
but it was the means of saving my
life. After leaving New York l went
to Albany. From there l drifted out
to San Francisco, where l started a
fruit business. prospered, and at the
end of Is years was worth about $780,
000 / arrived here last Sunday and
have been looking for you ever since"
He then handed over the handbook
and $4,000 for interest.

CHILD HAD SIXTY BOILS,
And Suffered Annually with a Red
ScaId-Like Humor on Her Head.
Troubles Cured by Cuticura.

When my little Vivian was about
six months old her head broke out in
boils. She had about sixty in all and
! used Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment which cured her entirely.
Some time later a humor broke out be-
hind her ears and spread up on to
her head until it was nearly half COW
cred. The humor looked like scald,
very red with sticky, clear fluid com
ing from it. This occurred every
spring. l always used Cuticura Soap
and Ointment which never failed to
heal it up. The last time it broke
out it became so bad that I was dis
couraged. But I continued the use of
Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resol-
vent until she was we'll and has never
been troubled in the last two years.

This was the question that l had
been expecting. All night long 1 had
dreamed of Ysonde and the glade in
the woods, where, at the bottom of
the crystal fountain, saw the rehec-
tion of her eyes. All the morning
while bathing and dressing had been
persuading myself that the dream was
not worth recounting and that a
search for the glade and the imagn-
ary stone carving would be ridiculous.
But now, as Barris asked the ques-
tion, I suddenly decided to tell him
the whole story.
See here, you fellows" | said alb
ruptly, Il am going to tell you some
thing queer. You can laugh as much
as you please, too, but first | want to
ask Barris a question or two. You
have been in China, Barris?"
yes" said Barris, looking straight
into my eyes.
would a Chinaman be likely to
turn lumberman?"
Have you seen a Chinaman?" he
asked in a quiet voice.
Il don't know; David and l both
imagined we did"
Barris and Pierpont exchanged
glances.
Have you seen one, also?" | de-
manded, turning to include Pierpont.
NO" said Barris, slowly; but l

:. Build PANAMA 4 CANAL

/. New Orleans, La, Sept. 8.-That
ex.President Roosevelt is to take
charge of the work on the Panama
canal when he returns from Africa,
is. the report in official circles in
Panama, according to a statement OF
T. W. Harrison, of Columbus, Ohio,
attached to the engineering depart
ment at Panama, who has just arriV-
ed here from the canal zone.
"There is no dissatisfaction with
the way the canal is being dug" said
Harrison, "but the report has come
from authentic circles that President
Taft has already arranged with
Roosevelt to go to the isthmus at the
beginning OF the year and remain
there until the waterway has been
completed.
Roosevelt is very popular on the
isthmus and would be given a hearty
welcome. Recently the medals which
he recommended for good service
were distributed. He has made a
deep study of the canal and is well
equipped to take up the work"

Minneapolis, Sept. 8.-Aroused to
indignation by the discovery that the
official exhibit cards issued by the
state fair management are helping to
advertise farm lands in North Dako'

meeting in the Agricultural hall to
protest against what they charge is

their commercial rivals.
The exhibit cards in question are
small cards, about four inches square
On the front are spaces for the name
of the entrant and the nature of the
exhibit, on the back is an advertise
ment of a St. Paul land company, Of
fering cheap lands in North Dakota
on favorable terms.
AS soon as this was discovered, the
promoters of fourteen county exhib

ual farmers, decided upon an indig-
nation meeting. Charles N. Howe, OF
Aitkin, was elected chairman and
