FARMER DROPS $4,000
I'M buNCO GAME
LOSES SMALL FORTUNE ON
DEAL FOR WORTHLESS MIN
ING STOCK.

WALLA WALLA, Aug. IL
N. A. Strange, retired farmer, Is
moaning the loss of about $4,000
to show for which he has some
nice looking Ben Franklin mining
stock. The method was the old
one, but Mr.. Strange did not find
out for a few days, and the de-
tails did not become public until
today. Last Tuesday chatty
stranger, calling himself B. Ma
Son, appeared at his home, maxi
ing inquiry about Strange's
daughter, whom he claimed to
have known in Spokane. During
the course of the conversation ne
showed some Ben Franklin MIN
ing stock, very predtily engraved
and very valuable, he said, in fact
too valuable to sell. The next
day a man calling himself H. B..
Howard came around.
Mr.. Howard understood that
Mr.. Strange was acquainted with
the holder of some Ben Franklin
stock which he was DESTROYS of
buying but which he thought the
holder might hold at too high a
figure. A telegram purporting to
be from a man in Rockford, ILL.,,
who wanted $4,000 worth of
stock and would pay rs cents a
share more than the other want
ed. The next day Mason came
back and Strange preached the
subject.
Mason agreed as a favor TO yell
the stock, and Strange bought.
Howard didn't come back the next
day nor the day after. Strange
wired to Rockford but no one
knew the individual he named as
having sent the message.

WASHINGTON. d. c.. Aug. IL.
President Taft's western trip is
expected to be one of the most ex-
tensive and notable ever taken by
a president. 1t will be literally a
great swing around the circle. Be-
ginning in the upper right hand
corner of the map, his route will
make sweep to the left and the
down and around and back to
Washington. The time consumed
will be almost month.
No definite schedule has yet
been made. The outlines, how
ever, are fairly clear, and every
day new invitations are received
and new arrangements made for
presidential visitations. Most of
these arrangements are made
through members of congress,
but in many cases cities are send
ing prominent men as committees
to extend invitations and outline
a program. The president will
make large number of speeches,
and will not omit the opportunity
to explain what congress has
done, with his assistance and APP
proval, in the way of a revision
of the tariff.
At present the plan is to leave
Beverly, Mass, Sept. 10. On his
way west it is possible he may
stop in Michigan, but Chicago will
be the first important objective
point. After the program there,
he will turn north and go to Min
neapolis and st. Paul, where a
program is being arranged.
Thence he will go southwest to
Des Moines, Ia; thence probably
through the Dakotas and again
southwest to Denver. After the
doing at Denver he will go to Salt
Lake City; thence to Butte and
Helena, Mont, and thence to Sc
attic and Tacoma.
After the exposition program
the president plans to drop dowr
to Portland, Ore, and possibly to
visit several more cities in Ore
gon and Washington state. Sar
Francisco will be his next destina
ton. Thence he will go to the
Yosemite National park for {
brief rest and recreation. Emerg
ing from the park, he will heat
for Los Angeles, and after a pro
gram there will go to Arizona
probably visiting the reclamation
work at the Roosevelt dam. ant

From the territories he will
drop, down to Texas. After visit

1t is true that there are reduc-
lions in the new tariff, but the
merest tyrO in tariff study should
understand that while an increase
in a tariff rate almost invariably
means an increase in the market
price of the article, a reduction
does not necessarily mean de-
crease. This is because the In
creased tariff is asked for the ex-
press purpose of raising the price,
while in the case Of the article
upon which there is a reduction
. the old tariff may, have been I'M
necessarily high. An article is
manufactured to sell, and if the
price represents the full amount
of the tariff plus the price of the
may compel a less price, one that
foreign made article it may cur
tail its use. Thus trade net4Ssl-
ty may compel a less price, one
that can be safely made because
the tariff is prOhibitive and keeps
out foreign competition. To il
luStratc, if tie home price rep
reSentS but 50 per cent added to
the foreign manufa ''lrer's price
and the tariff on that article is
60 per cent, a redu 'tiOn Of 10 per
cent vii not affect the price in
this country. Trust-made arti
cleS, made under a prOhibitive
tariff, will not be affected either.
Thus there is reduction Of II
per cent in the tariff on type
writer's. The trust here sells
them for 500, and an avearge
of 20 per cent less abroad. Cash
registers suffered a tariff reduc-
ton from As to 80 per cent. They
are manufactured by a trust that
sells similar machines abroad at
30 per cent less. Is anybody gull
lible enough to believe that under
these conditions typewriterS or
cash registers will be reduced in
price? THE COmmOner.
