to Washington to place himself in the

He suffered from a complication of

His passing marked the close of

counter charges growing out of the ac-
quirement of public lands in the west

the most sweeping investigations,

today as one of the most answering
and relentless inquisitions in the an

SCENE OF EXCITEMENT WHEN
THE VOTE WAS FINALLY
TAKEN.
DUTY OFF PETROLEUM
LUMBER DUTY RETAINED, HIDES
TEA AND COFFEE ON
FREE LIST.

Washington.-After three weeks OF
consideration the Payne tariff bill was
passed by the House Friday night,
amid great excitement, by vote OF
217 to 161.
One Republican, Austin, OF Tennes-
see, voted against the measure, and
four Democrats, all from Louisiana,
Messrs. Broussard, Estopinal, Pujo and
Wickliffe, voted for it. An attempt by
Champ Clark, the minority leader, to-
recommit the bill with instructions,
signally failed.
One of the principal changes in the
bill was the placing of petroleum on
the free list.
Among the other important amend
ments made since the bill came from
the committee were those striking out
the provision for duty on tea and the
countervailing duty proviso on coffee.
The so-called Joker" in the cotton
cloth schedule which, it was claimed.
would increase the duties of the Ding
ley bill several hundred per cent, were
corrected, the proviso for the method
Of counting threads in the cloth being
made the same as in the present law.
The drawback section was added to
advantage of for specializing in grain,
and the Philippine free trade pro-
vision was amended so that rice will
not be admitted free from the islands.
b The countervailing duty clause on
lumber was stricken out, but strong
effort to place lumber on the free list
did not succeed.
The duties on barley, barley malt,
pineapples in crates and cotton col
lars and cuffs, as originally in the bill,
were increased. A proviso was in
cluded in the tobacco schedule increas-
ing the duty on filler tobacco from any
country which prohibits the importa-
tion of the Kmericah tobacco.
There were several technical
changes in the steel schedule. princi-
pally downward. Hides, hosiery and
gloves were left as reported by the
committee, hides remaining free and
an increased duty being presented for
gloves and stockings.
When the bill actually was passed
the Republicans cheered Justify, some
dancing up and down the aisles and
patting their fellow members on the
back.
The situation with respect to lumber
was greatly relieved to the Republican
leaders when 1t became manifest that
the advocates of the proposition plac-
ing it on the free list were in the
minority.
The contest over free petroleum was
stubborn, but the vote in its favor was
overwhelming.

Murderer. In High places.

To enter into the details OF the
causes that contribute to high death
rate among infants is to indict about
every city in the land and all Of the
states for completely In murderous
conspiracy. When a municipal legisla'
ture declines to pass any law honestly
and scientifically designed to increase
the purity Of the milk supply, 1t be-
comes party to this murderous con-
spiracy. II II fails to enact suitable
building laws, 1t is guilty Of a crime OF
omission. 1t is similarly derelict, de-
clares the St Louis Republic. when 1t
fails to provide for the medical inspec.
ton of school children or to compel
the taking Of any and all the precau-
tions which science has devised and
experience has proved to be beneficial.
We may hold opinion with certain men
of science. commonly designated as
cranks, that disease is crime. but we
may not hope to see the people attain
to universal heights of right living.
But because individuals habitually and
often Intentionally abuse or neglect
their bodies, the state is not absolved
from exercising to the limit of toler-
ance its duty of safeguarding life and
health. AS 1t is now. the state sins as
the individuals do and, presumably, be-
cause they do.

The statement that there are four or
five men among Boston's aged city
employees who are In such condition
that their wives lead them to work In
the morning and call for them and take
them home at night is pitiful. especial
ly when 1t is taken In connection with
the statement that oftentimes a husky
son will be found living on an aged
father, and again grandchildren are
being maintained by the city employe
who fssls obliged to keep up the at
tempt at work. Until pension system
Is devised It would seem to be a good
policy for the city to put the husky
son to work and compel him to support
the aged father. who has earned rest
after many years of labor.

The habit Of hyphenating names is
curious one, and more prevalent in
England than in this country. 1t will
be recalled that many Of the plays Of
Shakespeare appeared with shake
speare" on the title-page. Some one
recently observed that American
names are being printed in this fashion
quite frequently in the British papers
of to-day. "Bailey-Aldrich,' Clarence
Stedman" and "Gillespie-Blaine" are
examples. In cases where the hyphen
is not used. the first name Is often
dropped, and we read of Allan Poe"
Ward Beecher" and Russell Lowell"
The practice is almost the opposite Of
that Of the newspapers of small towns.
where items appear about Assistant
Postmaster James Henry Jones'"

The death Of Maj. Zalinski recalls
his dynamite gun and the cruiser Ve-
suvius. into whose deck and hold the
menacing tubes were installed. 1t was
promised that this floating machine
for the throwing of dynamite would
revolutionize naval warfare, but the
dynamite" ship did not frighten the
Spaniards at Santiago, who can ever
be accused of having made tremen-
dously heroic defense Of that city. The
fact is, the Vesuvius was more dreaded
by the men who were assigned to her
than she was by enemies toward which
her tubes were pointed, because sailors
do not care to go shipmates" with
stocks of dynamite.

A government report shows that the
ravages of consumption are decreasing
throughout the country. Slowly, but
surely. the plague for which 1t was
thought there was no cure is giving
way before the energetic and persist
ent attacks Of science. With the dis
coveries and remedies that have been
made, and the bringing abonut of bet
ter public sanitary conditions, both by
popular education on the subject and
by civic ordinances, there is hope that
the next generation will no longer have
reason to look upon this terrible dis
ease as inevitable doom past human
aid.

Andrew Carnegie's peace proposal
that the United States defend British
ports on the Atlantic coast in return
for similar compliment on the Pacific
coast. and in Hawaii and the Philip
pines, amounts, says the Milwaukee
Evening Wisconsin, practically to a
merging of the naval power of the two
nations and the formation of navy
that would be large enough to provide
fleets galore for defense purposes Mr.
Carnegie Is quite as interesting in this

Milwaukee was the third city OF the
country to introduce the teaching of
Italian into it's schools. New York and
San Francisco preceded Milwaukee.
One of the immediate effects of the in

of the number of Italian children attend

The Oldest Omceholder.

From the Philadelphia Record.
John Laws Of Hillsboro has the honor
of being the oldest officehoider in the
United States in continuous service. He
has been register of deeds of the county
Of Orange all that time. and has been re-
elected every two years, very few persons
ever having had the temerity to run
against him. and all of these having been
cleft at the post" using a phrase of the
race course. Mr.. Laws Is now in his
eighty-f1fth year and within the past few
years he married very charming young
woman. barely turned twenty, and she
has presented him with three olive
branches. the last of these being only a
few weeks old.
Mr. Laws environment is certainly con-
ducive to longevity. for in his town time
has stopped stu since the days of the
revolution His Office is in the historic
presented by His Majesty King George
Ill to his trusty people Of the county Of
Orange. The old clock has struck the
hours and the halves all these years with
barely trifie of repairs. and the sweet
notes are very soothing and gentle to the
quiet and unworldly townfolk.
To the mind of Mr. Laws things which
happened fifty years ago are as fresh and
clear as if of yesterday, and he is a mine
of information. Mr.. Laws has in his time
heard many a thrilling story by revolu-
tionary soldiers and saw the great Lafay-
cite on his second visit to America in
1926, then being two years old.
