Western Men Protested.

Senator Aldrich had reports from
many western senators protesting
against the removal of the duty on
hides or a reduction below 10 per cent
ad valOrem. The only terms on which
the western senators would consent TO
consider the abolition Of the duty in
volved the removal of the duty on
leather goods. 1t is understood Mr.. Al
drich said the hide interests and the
shoe interests must get together and
make concessions If an agreement was
to be reached
Discussion then turned upon the
amount of reduction the leather trade
could stand without serious injury.
Senators Lodge and Crane and Repre-
sentative Mccall of Massachusetts, had
a long consultation with Senator Al
drich.
As a result it would not be surprising
if an agreement is reached tomorrow
substantially reducing the duties on
hides and all leather goods. After the
duty has been fixed on hides and leather
goods little difficulty is appTehended in
reaching an agreement to put oil on the
free list and in compromising upon the
duty of about As cents a ton on coal
S1.25 a thousand feet on rough lumber,
with prOportiOnate differentials, and q
rate Of about SO a ton on print paper.
Many senators thought little objection
would be made to placing iron ore on the
free list, and this question was generally
regarded as good as settled.
Senator Burrows, however, is making
a stubborn fight for the retention of the
senate rate of % cents on iron ore. The
anti-free raw materials insurgents" of
the house met today. There were only
twenty-seven members present, and al
though several SueecheS were made no
resolutions of protest were adopted.

cursion took part in the parade. New CT has the Indian school band played more thrilling martial music, than it did yesterday afternoon, heading the procession of the best bunch of Elks in the world, the tribe from Phoenix, Ariona, down to the train amid the applause of thousands of enthusiastic listeners. And this is saying a great deal for the Indian school band from Phoenix, Arizona is considered by all the band critics who have ever heard it to be, if not the finest, one of the finest military bands in the United States.
 The parade went down Washington to Third street, north to Adams, west to First, north to Monroe, west to Center and south to the depot It was impossible to secure a full list either of the paraders or those who left on the train, as all were so hopelessly mixed and no one knew exactly who else was going until they had gone.
 The demonstration consisted simply of the parade, which was certainly a splendid one and called the largest crowd to the sidewalks that has been seen since the hot weather began.

1t really looked as if the gentlemen
who steered the income tax PROPOSE
ton through congress would rather
see it beaten than to become a law.
The democratic members insisted that
the proposition should be submitted
to state conventions, the delegates TO
which should be elected by the people
and thus let the people vote directly
on the question but they were voted
down and the resolution was submit
ted to state legislatures. Most OF the
legislatures which will be called to
vote on 1t are already elected and were
elected when the income tax was not
an issue aud thus the people will have,
no chance to expl ess themselves on the
question. We feel safe in predicting
that the resolution Will never pass the
West Vireinia state senate if there Is
fight against it as well as in many 9TH
err. The margin is small as IT VIII
take but twelve states TO defeat the
measure. In our state it will take but
fifteen senators to vote the state
against the resol iton. In Connncti-
cut it will take eight, in Rhode Island
it will require but twenty and in New
Hampshire but thirteen. The money
classes throughout the country are OPP
posed to the law. there will doubt
less be strong opposition to it and
where it is so close it may be safely
guessed that the proposition will never
see day light.

1t seems that President Taft Is de-
termined to keep his promise to the
people that the tariff should be revised
downward. A body of stand patters,
including some democrats, waited on
the president in defense of the mon
sterosity in the shape of tariff bill
end to convince the Chief Executive
that its provisions are thoroughly re-
publican and in fulfillment of the
platform obligations of the party in
the campaign last sum mer. The Presi-
dent was not slow in telling them
that he thought otherwise and that
the revision meant downward and
not upward. He did not say that
he would veto the bill but those
who heard him are quaking in their
shoes IN fear and trembling that all
the summer and spring work will be
for saught. Several of our disting aish-
ed congressman were in the crowd who
waited on the President and they were
especially distressed to hear him eX-
press himself as opposed 10 tariff on
coal. Mr.. Taft assured them that he
was in favor of protection where it
was necessary and was opposed to it
where 1t was not needed.

State Road Commissioner.

State Road Commissioner, G. z.
Light has sent out a circular letter to
the various county courts urging them
TO select good and efficient men as
county road surveyors. a very timely
suggestion and one which should be
carefully guarded, but, will it be? We
do not believe it will be in most cases.
The class ofpeople whe compose most
CT our county courts are selected by
political conventions and are radical
partisans. In democratic counties there
will be democrats appointed and in
republican counties there will be re-
publlcans appointed and that without
any regard to the fitness of the aspi-
rant. This is matter of the highest
importance to the people of the coun-
ties and Mr.. Light is right when he
urges the appointment of "capaole
and efficient men, to these important
positions.

The democratic platform or 1908
contained the following plank;
ave favor an income tax as part of
our revenue system, and we urge the
submission OF constitution al amend
ment specifically autho ,izing congress
to levy and collect tax upen individual
and corporate Incomes, to the epd that
wealth may bear its proportionate
share Of the burdens of the federal gov
eminent"
Mr.. Bryan Endorsed this plank and
urged the necessity of constitutional
amendment. President Taft, in his
acceptancs speech, insisted that an
amendment was not necessary. For
years the republican leaders have
opposed an income tax and denounced
the democrats for advocating 1t. But
behold the change!
President Taft sends message TO con-
gress proposing the submission of an
income tax amendment and it passes

The defenders Of our boosted tax re-
form will have their hands full this
year to explain the increase in taxes.
The state machine has found it inn
possible to decrease taxes and increase
expenses as they have been trying to
convince the taxpayers that they were
doing. The first year or two often the
enactment of the new tax laws the
taxes were piled high on the corpora
tons and the farmers were relieved
somewhat bat the expenses kept grow
ing and there could not be money
enough squeezed out Vfthe corporations
TO keep the machine going and the
next thing to be done is to raise the
valuation to such point the low levy
will raise more revenue than the low
valuation did at the high levy, and so
we have now reached. that point.
Orders were sent out from Charleston
that valuations must be raised and so
they have been. The state machine
demanded a clear raise of one million
dollars inthe valuation of the property
in Berkeley county and the local asses

He told me about this one afternoon
when I visited him at his once. One
of the once boys hung about AZ we
talked. In . way that did not like.
and cautioned Majors lest he be over
heard and Halliday warned. but he
scoffed at my fears and said he trusted
the boy. Nevertheless. l didn't like
the CLEAN that came into the boys
eyes when he heard what Majors had
to say about Halliday. Things looked
threatening for the delegate. knew
that he was q dangerous character
and feared that he might try to es-
cape from the net that Majors was
weaving about him by trying to silence
Majors in the only way that was pos
sible.
That night Majors had promised to
call on me at my hotel to sample a
bottle Of 30-year-old liquor that a
friend In the revenue service had sent
me from Kentucky. had invited
Majors more to get him away from his
work than with any idea that he would
care especially for the liquor, as /
knew that he was temperate in all his
tastes and habits. knew that he
needed the rest, that he was overtax-
ing himself with the war he was wag-
ing with the strikers, and had not
liked the haunted, worried expression
