PAYNE FIGHTS
/. TARIFF BOSSES
House Leader Walks Out Of
Committee Meeting.
DENANDSOOWNWARD REVISION

Mr.. Payne Declares He Will Net Sign
a Report Merely Because a Majority
Of House Conferees Agree to It.
Alleged to Have Said Committee Is
Packed.
Washington, July 21.-The tariff bill
was hoisted above the chickering's OF
congressional cOnferees and trans
ferred bodily from the capitol to the
White House. Deadlocked because OF
the attitude Of Representative Payne,
who apparently has become obsessed
with the growing conviction that he is
IN the minority, the conferees aban
doned the usual afternoon session
Senator Aldrich and Speaker Cannon
repaired to the White House post
haste to consult with President Taft
literally taking the tariff bill with
them.
From a creditable source it was
learned that a crisis was reached when
an effort was made to vote on lumber
Mr.. Payne protested and argued that
such a move would be unfair to the
president, as this was one Of the sub
Jects practically submitted to him for
adjustment, providing he could get
enough votes in the two houses tc
adopt compromise rates.
IF we cannot agree let's settle the
question by voting on the question.
Mr.. Fordney is reported to have sug
gested. It is reported also that Mr.
Aldrich acquiesced in that proposal
conferees Committee Packed.
Mr.. Payne is said to have complain
ed to some Of his friends that the con |
ference committee had been packed |
with high protectionists.
When Mr. Fordney. who had been |
placed on the conference committee /.
regardless Of the fact that he is the /
Junior Republican member, said Lets /
vote" Mr. Payne protested with a We /
hemence that startled his associates. /
Some one said that the majority should .
rule. That remark. it is declared .
came from one of the senate members /
of the conference. and it incensed Mr.
Payne still more.
Mr.. Payne told Mr.. Aldrich that HI /
could vote the senate members of the /
conference if he chose. but that he .
could not vote the house members Sc
easily. Full Of wrath he told his /
house colleagues that it was their duty .
to stand up for the house bill and e.
yield only after every possible effort .
had been made to win. He intimated
that some of the house conferees had 4
been to ready to agree TO increases
made by the senate. Unless the house
members intend to stand by the house
bill there is no use in trying to vote
on these matters. he said.
AS a parting shot Mr.. Payne is re
ported to have said that he would not
sign a conference report merely ba
cause a majority of the house Republ.
can conferees had agreed to it, Wi'h
his coat tails furled about him. Mr.
Payne stalked angrily from the room
il is declared by Mr.. Payne's friends
that his answering attitude on tha
low rates in the house bin is dictated
solely by a desire to see President J
Taft successful i'm his contention for
a downward revision Of the tariff

To that gallant soldier, patriotic
statesman and delightful gentleman,
NJ. c.. Butler, on the 73rd anniversary
Of his birth, long life, good health and
happiness!
Much history has been written since
NJ. c.. Butler first saw the light, on
that beautiful hillside at the foot Of
the Blue Ridge, and in the making Of
history he has played a conspicuous
and an honorable part. Among the
first to volunteer in 1861, he attained
a rank which few Of his years could
hope to reach, and that only by worth
and gallantry. After that struggle he
was foremost in upbuilding what had
been laid waste, and his services again
received their due reward in a still
later struggle, he was chosen, as the
representative Of the South s soldiery
for high command in the army Of a
reunited nation.
The battles Of youth are over now,
and this soldier, statesman and gen.
tleman has reached the age where he
seeks only peace and comfort. May
he find both in their richest fulness.

A Strange Dream.

One Of the patrons Of Rural Route
No. l had a strange dream the other
might. He dreamed he died and went
up straight and narrow way to the
gate of Heaven. He knocked on the
gate and St. Peter opened the wicket
and asked him what church he came
from? He told St. Peter that he
came from Trinity. St. Peter told
him there were people there from
Trinity. St. Peter then asked him,
wuat was his name. He. told his
name. st. Peter said that was a good
name and that there were a number
of that name in Heaven. St. Peter
then asked him what Rural Route he
lived on? He said Route No. l.
St. Peter then asked him if while
in life he bought stamps to put on
his letters or did he put pennies in
the box. He told St. Peter he always
put pennies in the box.
Situate near the gate Of heaven Just
across the way was the gate Of hell.
St. Peter called to his Satanic Ma
jesty to send an imp Of hell for the
fellow. The imp came Immediately
with a sharp pitch fork in his hand,
and drove him to the gate of hell,
which Immediately opened, and his
Satanic Majesty met him with a
smile, and told him, he had a special
punishment for the penny people.
Just i'm front of him was large
mail box full Of red hot pennies.
Satan told him his occupation in
hell was to pick out Of that mail box
the red hot pennies for ever and ever.
The patron awoke from his dream,
the prespiration was pouring from
him.
The next morning when the Car
srier came along and blew his whistle
this patron came running to his mali
box with a dollar bill in his hand and
bought a dollars worth of stamps.
He told the Carrier Of his dream
and said he would never put pennies
in the box for the Carrier to pick up
again.
Now, dear patrons, did you ever
think for moment how much trouble
this penny nuisance gave your Car
rier. Some days I get 100 pennies,
they have to be picked up one by one.
Some get into a crack at the bottom
of the box and I have to take my
knife and prize them out. Some fall
to the ground and I have to get out OF
the buggy and scratch till [ find them
or pay the postage myself.
Now, dear patrons, give this mat
ter a serious consideration and am
satisfied that the picking up of pen
nies by the carriers except in few
caSes) l be done away with.
