CHANGERS HAVE
DAY OF PLEASURE
KnOtt'S Meadows Scene Of
Merrymaking by Farmers
And Families

Knots Meadow along the Kiamensi
mill dam road. below Stanton. was the
scene Of merry-making yesterday in which
residents of stanton, Newport, MARSHALL
ton and surrounding points joined. The
occasion was the annual outing of Dia-
mond State Grange, of stanton.
More than 100 members of the grange
and their friends enjoyed the outing. The
excellent weather was only one feature
Of many that made the outing one OF the
most successful given by the grange. The
meadows were occupied practically the
whole day, and there we're attractions for
all.
Members Of the grange numbering 30 or
more enjoyed an exciting straw ride at the
outset They left Stanton on top a big load
of straw at 10 o'clock in the morning and
arrived TO find other grangers living near
er the meadows already in possession.
Unlike preceding years, no arrangements
had been made to have speakers and the
grangers were at liberty to amuse them
selves otherwise. Boating was a popular
diversion. while for landsmen, there were
all kinds OF athletics. the feature Of the
latter being a baseball game between
scrub teams
At noon tables were occupied, and al
most as many inviting baskets as there
were picnickers were disclosed. Each
basket, of course, contained typical
Delaware country luncheon and every.
one fell to- with an APPETITE sharpenec
by the fresh air and the occupations of th'
morning.
Dinner over. the games and impromptt
talk-fests we're resumed. Throughout thl
afternoon ice cream and cake we're serve,
and the younger grangers we're in costa
cies Until o'clock the grangers were il
possession Of the meadows. The Stantoi
grangers then returned in their straw
wagon and the picnickers from othe
places left with many pleasant recoilec
tions Of the day.
The committee in charge Of the outin
comprised Lawrence Oddison. c. 7

WITH DAUGHTER
Stormy Meeting Between the
King OfBeleium And Pril-
cess Louise
~ unIIed Prosa Lea.el spee-aI VIC.

BY United Press Leased Special Wire
BERLIN, Aug. l.-Unless powerful
pressure is brought 20 bear the Berlin
papers will I'm the morning print for
the first time the details OF the recent
stormy meeting between the aged King
Leopold of Belgium and his doughter
Princess Louise. The meeting was
brought about 10 effect "a reconciliation
between the %yO but ended in failure
and the determination of both TO con-
tlnue the immoral domestic relations
that for years have shocked European
court circles
Princess Louise who has lived in
Berlin for some time, recently went
to Brussels and obtained an interview
with her father. from whom she had
been cstranged since her liaison with
Mattasich- Keglevich. The Princess
had heard that her father had disin-
herited her in his will and was dis
posing of his property i'm order that
she might not get possession OF 1t
after his death.
With Characteristic impetuosity IL
is declared that the Princess upbraid-
ed her royal father and demanded that
she receive her share of his vast
wealth. The King consented to her
demands, even promising TO tear up
his win and make a new one in her
favor, provided she would abandon
Mattasich- Koglevich.
The Princess then made the boldest
proposal ever presented 20 the King.
She told him sho would quit Mattasich-
kebleyich If he would agree to abandon
the notorious Baroness Vaughan, his
entanglement with whom has been one
OF the greatest scandals that ever dis
grace a European court The Baroness
is plebian woman, bearing her title
purely as the gift OF the King.
The Princess proposal greatly en-
ragged Leopold and the conference brok,
up with both parties more determined
than ever TO continue their former
paths. In rage the King almost drove
the Princess from the castle and COM
mandod her never TO let him see hoi
again. The Princess returned TO Ber.
lin and is again living with Mattasich.

Another instance of how our high protective tariff works to the advant- age of foreign markets, and to the dis advantage of our own, was revealed, Monday, by Senator Beveridge. It being proposed to lessen the high duty on cash registers, he declared that, an Ohio cash register which sells in this country for s250 can be bought in Eng land for s135 and one that costs $500 at home can be bought for $50 over there. This is one of the many illus trations of how the American people who unwisely grant high duties, are mulcted by them. Gratitude for the favors shown seems to be absent from the makeup Of the tariff beneficiar- ies; instead of being grateful, they inflict pecuniary punishment, the net result being their enrichment and their home patrons impoverishment.

Large Town Meeting-Too Many Child.
 rem = School Question Discussed Public Hearings to be Held - A
 Chance for All to Speak..LocalN News.

A large and what proved to be a very interesting town meeting was held last evening, Judge Peck being chosen chairman, as usual. The object of the meeting, as set forth in the warning, was to consider the best ways and means for providing for the accommo- dation of the increasing number of school children, and to take action re- garding the curbing of a portion of Main street and East Broadway Fred S. Beardsley began the debate by pre- senting a resolution on behalf of the School board, embodying their views of the situation. He began by ac- counting for the increase of school children in town as the result of the large birth rate. He said the town in years past had built many school pills in the 5th, 9th and 7th grades.
 9th grade scholars, two for the 9th year there will be over 80 pupils in more room. There must be at least four more rooms. The school commit tee has canvassed the subject. but can- not prognosticate the population. Chill dren are crowding into town, and pro- vision must be made for the higher grade in the center of the town. He presented a resolution to the meeting for the purpose of getting it's opinion on the subject, to the effect that it be resolved that the School Board be au- thorized to build an addition to the present center school building. in the

9enator Warren of wyoming declares thzf free raw materials would be the dsakh knelf Of the protective policy. If with raw materials made free of duty. manufacturers could contend on equal terms with foreign competitors why shoud not the duties on manu- f8ctureS be repealed? There would be no occasion for them: home manu- factures would still have the protec- ton of ocean freight rates against for eign competition, and could compete in foreign markets at least as well as they do now. The savings to the American people would aggregate an immense amount annually, with no loss of income to any one except the tariff beneffciaries who have already taken great fortunes from the pockets of the American people and are ever demand ing more on various pretexts.

DETAILS ~up IN THE A1R-

The details of the proposed tax of ? per cent. on the net earnings of cor poraktons are evidently up in the air. Ons day, dispatches announce, seem iutly by authority. a certain feature; the next day. 1t fs denied. On Mon day. 1t was stated that corporations nos having more than s5,oo0 in net aeofn1ngs would be exempted from the taxy on Tuesday. the report was that 4t would apply to all corporations, 1arEe or small. Similarly, Mondays s Announcement that income from bonds held by savings banks would be ex- feru6ted was denied on Tuesday, but a ukAtsnent that from the tax on na- t1onni banks would be deducted the taxes paid upon their circulation, was put forward. probably for denial at a Iafbr date.
 4bo. authors of the new tax propo- aitzqn are disturbed over the possibility that corporations may change their &hpERs or a large part of them. into Doylda. the interest on which Is paid cut ef gross earnings. and thus escape 4ho tax Also, over the apparent ne ce41z1y for enough government control Of corDorations to assure full ascer- <afnrDenf of taxable conditions.
 Reports do not agree upon one inn pontant point, viz-. whether the earn -lngs of bonds shall be taxed. On the one hand, it is stated that income from bonds heldf by savings banks will come under the tax: on the other hand, that such income will not be taxed because it would in effect be dop1le taxation.
 If the net earnings Of corporations and the income from bonds are both taxed investment in the securities of cogporations will be heavily checked, and Idle money will largely seek in vestment where the tax does not ap- ply.
 We are strongly inclined to believe that President Taft's proposition, if enacted, will bring an extensive liti- R1tion. much shifting about of invest ment& material decreases in the mar ket values of corporate securities and nearly or quite as much dissatisfac- flon as followed any one of the pyro- tecAnkc moves of the Roosevelt Ad- 1ain3stratfon-
