TRENTON, April 6.--The House to-
day voted to expunge from the records
the petition from the sheriff of Cumber-
land asking that Judge Royal P. Tuller
he impeached.
AS a preliminary move today Lewis
moved to reconsider the vote of last
night to have 100 copies of the petition
printed. Lewis's motion to reconsider
was seconded by Martin, of Essex, and
went through without comment. Then
Lewis's motion to have the petition ex-
plunged from the House minutes went
through and Lewis asked that record
be kept Of the fact that such petit
tion had been received.
The warmest development of last
nights session of the Legislature was
the petition presented by Sheriff
Payne, asking for the inpeach-
ment of Judge Tuller, because.
the petition alleges. the judge
has been guilty of a high crime and
misdemeanor and has violated his oath
of Office because he has stricken off all
but two Of the Jurors summoned by
Sheriff Payne. Judge Tuller at the
time said the lists had not been prop
erly prepared. Payne charges that the
judges action is a continuance Of the
political factional war in Cumberland
county, where Howard W. Dolbey. Sec
retary of the county Republican Board
OF Taxation. and others are trying to
overthrow the sheriff.
The Governor was first informed of
the impeachment proceedings. Then
the petition was presented in the House
by Republican Majority Leader Lewis.

judiciary committee, of which he is

Martins resolution waB amended to
provide 100 copies Of Sheriff Payne's pc
tition and 1t was passed. Included in
tho petition is a letter addressed TO
Governor Stokes in 1907, when Tuller
was appointed. and signed by Henry S.
Award, Cumberland county lawyer,
who had been a candidate for the judge
ship.
Tuller was UP for reappointment this
year and he was named by Governor
Fort. despite bitter opposition OF his
political enemies and the liquor inter-
ests. The factional fight over Tuller
has split UP Cumberland county and
put their leaders at odds.

made a will at the solicitation of his
wife, making her the sole beneficiary OF
his estate.

STRANGLED
FROM HER
HIGH CHAIR
Mother Finds Her Baby
Dead on Returning
from Store.
CH0KED BY STRING
HUNG ABOUT NECK
Little Mildred Fischer Slips from
Seat, and Nipple on Tape
Suspends Her.
CH0KED BY STRING
HUNG ABOUT NECK

Left alone for a few minutes by her
mother, Mildred Louise Fischer, Z
months old, the daughter of william
r. Fischer, a letter-carrier, of 12O Her
gen street. was strangIed to death In
her high chair this morning.
After Fischer had left home to go his
route, Mrs. Fischer busted herself about
the house and then prepared to go to
the store to get meat for the noon meal
She placed her baby girl in the high
chair, seating her on a pillow and
giving her toys to play with These she
put on the little table extension, with
which most high chairs are equipped.
Then she gave her a pacifier, which she
hung about her neck by tape.
Mrs. Fischer had very little shopping
to do and was back in her house within
Ave minutes. AS she entered the apart
n1ent she was struck by the silence OF
the place. She had expected to hear
the happy laughter of the child and the
rattle of playthings, and, struck by the
absence of the sounds to which she
was SO accustomed, she cried out play
fully:
where's my baby? Where's my
baby?"
Choked by Tape.
Still there was no response. and, her
heart chilled by apprehension. she ran
anxiously to the kitchen. where she lett
the child. The sight that met her eyes
was such shock that she dropped her
bundles and staggered back.
Imagine the pitiful scene; The dingy
kitchen, with the high chair by the
window, the baby hanging by the tape
of it's pacifer, or nipple, her feet barely
touching the ground, her eyes open and
staring and CLASSY.
Mrs. Fischer rushed forward with a
scream. She found that the child had
slipped from it's pillow seat, that the
pacifier had caught In the Joint where
the table flap is attached to the chair,
and that she had been hanged to death
by the tape around her neck. She
extricated it and poured warm milk
down it's throat, but found that 1t was
quite dead. Sne called her neighbors
and they summoned a doctor, but his
services were of no avail.
Their First Baby.
County Physician Mckenzie was
notified and after examining the body
announced that the child had strangled
to death. The fall from the seat Of the
chair had been 80 sudden and 80 sharp
that life had been almost instantly
snuffed out
This child was their only baby. Three
months ago Mrs. Fischer's mother died.

NAPOLEON after THE 500
Injunction Case Being Heard Before
Judge Burke-Citizens Object to
Having the Main Street of Their
Little City Blocked--Road has
Started Work ON New Building.

Valley City, Aug. 18.-The injunc-
ton involving the location of the
500 depot was heard before. Judge
Burke here! The suit has been COM
menced by about forty residents Of
the town Of Napoleon, in Logan
county, against the 500 railroad,
company to restrain s$ the company
from building a permanent depot
across the only section line road and
laid out street, crossing the town
site north and south. The location Of
the town is peculiar, the school house
and court house and most of the
residences being on the north side,
of the railroad track, the business
houses on the south side of the track
and no regular laid out street cross
ing accessible. Private property and
the railroad right OF way have been
used for street purposes. The rail-
road company is beginning the erec-
ton of a new depot building to take
the place of the old portable shack
that has served as depot for eleven
years, and the new building is. to
be constructed directly across the
section line road running through the
town. The company evidently does
not wish a crossing near the depot
for various reasons, but no other
suitable crossing is provided, and the
town people are seeking relief in
the courts. Attorney Knauf of
Jmestown, represents the Napoleon
prties, plaintiffs in the suit.

We regret to find the Devils Lake
Journal giving voice to such advice
as this: .-,-. ..,..,..>~. .~..
Don't bother to read the new tariff
measure. .. The more you read it the
worse you will hate it, Most Of the
reductions are myth. but the in
creases are real enough.
We fear that this has. been the
attitude of too many critics of the
tariff. On the contrary, we suggest
that every consumers study the tariff
as it now stands, take note Of the
reductions and where they apply,
observe what measure of protection
has been afforded the producer of
this state, and come to a fair and
honest conclusion, irrespective of
somebodyelse's prejudice

rates in good times in order to act;
as check on too high prices here.
From the true protectionist point
of view sover-protection is an evil as
we'll as under protection Excessive
rates encourage the belief that the
government owes an indefinite sup
port to domestic Industries, when
it really means to offer them chance
to show their capacity to make pro-
gress and to give a return for the
benefits of protection. There has
been too great a disposition shown
by some of the protected intests to
challenge the law that duties should
gradually decrease as Industries ma
(ture. The average differential in
cost of production here and abroad
has undoubtedly decreased between
1897 and 1909. President Taft there
fore expresses the orthodox protec-
Zionist view and gives voice to the
demand Of the great majority of the
voters of the country, who are also
|stanchly protectionist, when he ar
CUES that revision now should be
downward and that a revision five or
ten years hence will probably be still
more downward. "stand-patism" is
an obnoxious perversion of protective
doctrine. Tariff rates should notstand
fast while industry is everywhere
showing exceptional progress. Re-
adjustment to meet changed condi-
|tions, by lowering duties where pres
ent rates are no longer needed, and
in special instances by dispensing
with them altogether, is the logical
aim of protectionist revision of the
tariff.

Dakota farmer There is a reduction
of rs per cent in the tariffs on agri-
cultural implements purchased by the
farmers of the state. And there are
reductions on a great number OF
articles ordinarily purchased by the
farmers of this state and used in
their daily life. the list of which ap-

the Tribune of August 10. So it ap-

Jared pretty well in his end Of the
compromise, although there wee
some things Senator McCumber
fought for in his interest that it was
found impossible to obtain.
So far as the relation of President
Taft with the bill was concerned. he
sought lower rate on lumber. Sen
ator McCumber sought to have it put
on the free list. 1t appears that here
was one of the schedules in which
Senator McCumber and the Presi-
dent were in accord President Taft
wanted free hides. Senator McCuul-
Der would have preferred a duty. in
the interest of the raisers Of live
stock, but with respect to this he
said:
II would have preferred thu old
duty on hides, or even higher duty;
but the-~fact that I did not get it
will not justify me in opposing a
measure which has come very close
to what I think is right and just,
and brings our tariff rate in near
accord with the present demand"
We think that Editor Johnson will
admit that the difficulties of tariff
making are many. This is a big
country with varied interests and
tariff is necessarily matter of give
and AXE. There is no person in North
Dakota. who, as senator. could have
risen above criticism in his attitude
upon the tariff bill. And in the way
of question asking, does Editor John

Divide THE. DAKOTA DIOCESE
Reported That There Will Be Two d.
visions Of Catholic Work In the
u State - One Headquarters to Be at
Fargo and the Other Will Be at
Grand Forks.

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 18.-It Is
understood that the division of the
North Dakota diocese of the Roman
Catholic church is being given consid-
GRAFTON a. the present time and there
is probability that when appoint
ments are made by the pope to fill
the, vacancy caused by the death ,. OF
Bishop Stanley, the Grand Forks do
cese, will be formed.
The plan has been under consider
alton for several years past on &C
coun.. of the remarkable growth of the
church in North Dakota. With the
increasing population the church has
grown until the diocese Is now con-
sidered too large to be handled by
one bishop. -
!" Should a division be made and there
is great hope that i. will be, Grand
Forks and Fargo would be made the
headquarters for the two dioceses and
thus they will be known - the do
ceses of the respective cities in which
the bishops reside.
A conference for the purpose of
nominating the candidate for appoint
ment to the vacancy in. the North
Dakota diocese has been held but no
announcement as to the action taken
has been given out.

Reports from various parts Of the
state which bear evidence of relia-
blilty indicate a considerable damage
to late grain from black rust. One
estimate given out at Grand Forks
is that the wheat crop of the state
has been overestimated 100000
bushels, and that the total crop will
come nearer 80, 100000 bushels than
11O,0O0,0O0 bushels. Most of the
damage reported is In. the northern
part of the state, and it is expected
that the oal yield up here will be
reduced.

TRUE PROTECTION.

In explaining his ideas of the uses
and purposes of protection President
Taft ranges himself with all the en-
frightened advocates of the protective
system. He is. an orthodox protec~
zionist, not a believer in tariff tax.
alton for revenue only with no regard
for protection. Still less is he in
favor Of free trade in and for itself
involving the indiscriminate admis-
sion of foreign goods and the sacri.'
f1ceof domestic industry in the expecc
tation of enjoying brief era of
lower prices. The presidents aim is
to strengthen and benefit American
industry as a whole, and to do that
he is ready to levy high duties, mod
crate duties or no duties at all, in
accordance with the changing needs
of the situation.
The president simply goes back to
first principles. Our protective tariffs
have been framed to keep importa-
lions from entering to such an extent
as to control prices here and to des.
troy domestic competition. 1t was
the sound doctrine of the propoun-
ders of the protective theory that
national ends would be served by
|diversifying industry, building up
manufactures and enabling the peo-
pie of the United States to supply
their own wants more fully and to
control their own market. The pro-
tective system was national invest
ment, and it was intended that the
country should reap return not only
in an increase in wealth and econ
omic efficiency, but in the cheaper
prices which would come when
American industries should be able
to stand alone and meet foreign CON-
petition. 1t was intended to give
the producer here a fair start. But
it was also intended that he should
repay the assistance extended by the
nation by striving to lower the cost
of production, sharing with consum-
err the benefits Of the progress made
in invention and labor economies.
The success of system Of pro-
lection involves a gradual lowering
of duties. AS an American industry
develops the margin of duty needed
to keep out threatening importations
necessarily shrinks. Importations
cease gradually 10 be 4 source of
danger They become, in fact only
a beneflcially negative influence in
checking excessive prices demanded
at home for domestic products. The
progress of the iron and steel indus
try illustrates that Transformation.
Thirty years ago foreign iron and
steel could have driven American
iron and steel out OF our market.
Today American iron and steel max
ers sell their products abroad, and
have practically no competition at
home. Protective duties on iron and
steel are no longer needed except
to discourage dumping here in hard
times. On the other hand, II has
become desirable to permit steel and
iron manufacturers to enter at low
