NlAYA DEFENDS
HIS EXECUTIONS
SAYS the Americans We're Fight
ing Against His Authority.
HIS EXCUSE WILL NOT Go

Only the Fact That Congress Is Not
In Session Now, II Is Said, Prevents
a Declaration of War Against Mica
ragua-ZeIaya Threatens United
States Consul caidra.
Washington, d. c., Nov. 30.-Lt was
learned from certain high state de-
partment officials that congress
were in session war probably would
be declared against Nicaragua at once
Congress alone can declare war and
such action ia most likely when the
session begins next week unless some
thing happens in the meantime lead
ing to the deposal of Zelaya.
The state department admits 1t has
received a dispatch from Managua to
the effect that Zelaya threatened Unit
ed States Consul Caldra there and
that this alone is sufficient cause for
the United States to declare war
The war department is all ready to
rush vessels and troops to Nicaragua
ana there are many OHllec oOdl .
warships now within easy sailing dis
lance of Nicaraguan ports on both the
Atlantic and Pacific coasts awaiting
the word to crush Zelaya. The United
States has received assurance from
the revolutionists that they will not
object to the landing of marines.
"RebeIs," Says ZeIaya.
New York, Nov. 30.-Zelaya cabled
here defending the executions of
Leonard Groce and Leroy Cannon on
the ground that they were rebels
fighting against the authority Of his
government.
Zelaya's Excuse Don't Go.
Washington, d. c., Nov. 30.-In COM
menting on Zelayas cable govern
ment officials point out that of Ze-
laya's excuse for the executions held
good everywhere, the North could
have executed all the Southerners
taken prisoners in the Civil War. The
Officials here say Zelaya's excuse will
not go, that the modern rules of war
fare do net permit summary execu-
tons especially citizens OF another
country.

I WHAT WIFE SAYS acoEs.~
But It Sometimes u Bad for the
Painting.

When property-owner knows moth
ing about paint 1t Is bad for the
property-owner, and bad for the paint
er. It would not be so II the property
owner would always hire a skilled
painter, and then really leave every
thing to him. But the houseowner so,
often fools himself on one or the other
Of these things
The skilled painter in every commu-
nifty has some Of the most incompetent
competitors that ever vexed consci-
entious workman or contractor, and
the incompetents get jobs generally by
working cheap. In the next place,
when the skilled painter is hired, they
do not leave everything to him, as SO
many property-owners boast they do.
They interfere most ignorantly and
most fatally. They insist sometimes
on using paint materials without in
vestigating whether they are good or
not. Or perhaps they insist on the
painters hurrying the work.
"I'm not going to have that painters
mess around my house month" the
wife says, and what wife says goes
at the cost of a lot Of wasted painting
money.
If the painter stays away few
days to allow the paint to thoroughly
dry the owner says: "That painters
neglecting this work-guess he's side
tracking me for Jones work. ! won't
stand It,"
What chance does painterhave to dc
good work for man who is continually
nagging at him and otherwise handi
Gaping him without meaning 1t, o.
course)? A poor job is the inevitable
result Of such interference.

DELIVERED 70 THE slxTY-FlRsT
CONGRESS.
II IS SHORT and TO THE POINT
Session Is Called by President for the
Purpose Of Enactins Tariff
LeglsI alton.

Washington, March 16.-President
Taft's message to congress today FOL
lows:
ITO the Senate and House OF Rep
resentatives: | have convened the
congress this extra session In order
to enable 1t to give immediate consid-
Grafton to the revision Of the Dingley
tariff act. Conditions affecting pro-
duction, manufacture and business
generally have so changed in the past
twelve years as to require readjust-
ment and revision of the import duties
imposed by that act. More than this,
the present tariff act, with the other
sources of the government revenue,
does not furnish income enough to
pay the authorized expenditures. BY
July next the excess Of expenses
over receipts OF the current fiscal
year will equal $100,OO0,0OO.
Pledged to Action.
"The successful party in the late
election is pledged to revision OF the
tariff. The country and the business
community especially expect it. The
prospect of change in the rates o.
import duties always causes suspen
sion or halt in business because OF
the uncertainty as to the conditions tt
be made and their effect. 1t is there
fore of the highest Importance thai
the new bill should be agreed upol
and passed with as much speed as pos
sible consistent with its due and thor
ought consideration. For these rea
sons have deemed the present to be
an extraordinary occasion within the
meaning of the constitution, justify
ing and requiring the calling of an ex
ira session. In my inaugural address
| stated in a summary way the prin
ciples upon which, in my judgment
the revision of the tariff should pre-
ceed and indicated at least one ney
source of revenue that might be proI
erly resorted to in order to avoid
future deficit. 1t is not necessary TO
us to repeat what / then said.
Let Other Things Alone.
81 venture to suggest that the vita
business interests of the country re
guire that the attention of the cor
gress in this session be chiefly devote
to the consideration of the new tarii
bill and the less time given to othe
subjects of legislation in this session
the better for the country.
