THE FREE LIST.

The new free list of the Payne bill
includes the following articles:
Petroleum, crude and refined, was.
continued on the free list, though con-
siderable opposition to this procedure
developed.
Hides were put on the list after pro-
longed and bitter controversies. Sena-
tor Aldrich and various of the older
members Of the upper house led the
campaign against free hides. The
Dingley bill placed duty Of IS per
cent ad valorem on hides.
The new free list, while very similar
to that Of the Dingley bill, contains the
following articles that, among others,
were not on the Dingley list:
Hides, fenceposts, sulphate Of am
monia, platinum combinations with
palladium, osmium and rhodium, kin
ding wood, radium, works of art
paintings. pastels, etchings and sculp-
lures that have been in existence more
than twenty years prior to date Of i'm

bronze, marble, terra Gotta, pottery,

ADMINISTRATIVE FEATURES.


The bill marks distinct departure
in that it provides for corporation
tax and court Of customs. The cor
poration tax, while yielding a large
amount Of revenue, IL primarily de-
signed for the purpose Of government
tai regulation Of corporal lions. and it
will have this effect.
The fact that the amount Of the tax
to be assessed was lowered from per
cent to l per cent is considered by the
members Of congress to evidence clear
~ that the bill has regulation for its
object and not merely revenue.
The customs court Of appeals will
further centralize the national govern
ment, and it will place the intricate
ton Of the law and the facts respect
ing classification Of merchandise and
rate Of duty under the jurisdiction Of
men who are specialists in this line
There is no appeal from this court,
which will sit in Washington, and the
members of which will be appointed
by the president
this court the country has been divid-
ed into nine customs judicial districts.
While many items in the bill show
revision downward, it will as whole
provide for an increased revenue, con-
tinuing in general effect the Repub-
lican policy of protection.
Retaliation Measures.
Governmental measures Of retalia-
ton against countries which do not
make tariff concessions to the United
States are amply provided for. Maxi
mum and minimum provisions enable
a higher rate Of tax to be imposed on
the products OF these countries than
would ordinarily have been the case.
The creation Of commission to look
into the question Of the tariff from a
nonpartisan viewpoint is an innova-
ton that has been suggested for many
years. 1t is generally looked on as a
move toward taking the tariff out of
politics"
policy long ago established by tar
if makers in this country is retained
in the new measure. 1t is the impos-
ing of particularly heavy duties on
Injuries
The drawback" provisions are in
dicative of more kind hearted gov
ernmental attitude than had been con-
sidered probable. In brief, a drawback
is refund of duty moneys paid Cd
material imported into this country
which is used in the manufacture of
articles which are themselves exported
from this country
The guiding spirit in the formula
ton Of the provisions of the new meas
ure has been one to fix duties that do
not necessarily encourage foreign I'M
portation, but that render it impossible
for a combination of capital in any
given line to raise prices above those
that now exist and to prevent them in
general from being further raised.
President Taft has taken particular
pains to point out this circumstance.
Competition that existed when the
Dingley bill was enacted has been
wiped out by the consolidation of COM
panies and the combination Of inter-
ests. President Taft renders the opin-
ion that the Payne tariff bill will in
large measure restore the possibility
Of successful competition in the bust
ness fields so affected.

During the closing days of the tar

voted on for final passage, over forty
Republicans who had grievances Of
one sort or another against certain Of
the provisions Of the bill stated that
they would vote against it. They had
it in their power to defeat the meas
ure and force the president to call

or October. They had the party lead

NEGRO GRABBED BOOK
and MADE ESCAPE
EXCITING EXPERIENCE OF LADY
IN EAST GAINESVILLE.
Bold Hlghwayman snatehed Purse and
Made Away in park--Apprehend-
ed by Or. Rogers But Escaped.

An exciting moment is recorded In
the usual quiet history Of East Gaines
vile, as on Thursday night some mis-
ereant broke the quietude OF that sec
ton by snatching a DOcketbook from
Mrs. N. H. McClamroch. while the
lady was on her way home from the
city, and was only few yards from
her gate when the incident occurred.
The pocketbOok contained only
$3.50 in change, but the incident OF
this highway robbery is what racked
the nerves Of the lady and those in
The immediate vicinity.
Mrs. McClamroch WAS on her way
home from shopping. The street light
on Prairie avenue, in the vicinity Of her
home, was not burning, and on &C
count OF the drizzIing mist the night
was quite dark. Suddenly, as Mrs.
licClamroch was opposite the home
Of J. w. Patton and only q few yards
from her own gate, a burly negro
youth approached her, and, without a
word, snatched the pocketbook, which
was suspended from her waist belt,
and rushed into the black darkness Of
the surroundings.
Mrs. McClamroch screamed, which
attracted the attention OF Rev. s. b.
Rogers, who happened to be conven'
iently near. He approached the lady,
who informed him that the negro had
gone IN the direction II the school
house. DIR. Rogers, with admirable
nerve, made hasty pursuit after the
negro. and finally found him in an
clubhouse on the school lot, but before
he was aware Of II the negro had
rushed from the door, and was again
lost in the darkness. DIR. Rogers
made a thorough search for the mis-
creant, but was unable to find him
again on account OF the darkness. He
believes, however, that he did see the
negro run across the bridge under
the electric light at sweetwater
branch.

The chief Of the naturalization bu-
reau at Washington is Of the opinion
that the average man ia the street"
understands distinctly what a white"
man IL. Apparently some persons can
master a subject without studying 1t
at all, while others who have looked
into II deeply are not 80 dogmatically
certain as the average man in the
street"
For example, the encyclopedias tell
Us that mankind was divided by Blu
menbach into i've races-namely, eau
casian, Monaghan. Ethiopian, Ameri-
can Qndiam and Malay. The words
Caucasian" and white" are used
anonymously. This classification was
first published In 1881 and must have
been known to our national legislators
when In 1902 they passed the first
naturalization law.
The Caucasian race includes Arabs,
who are certainly no winter than
the Turks, yet Turks, the Official says,
cannot be naturalized because they are
not white"
We are also told by the naturaliza-
ton bureau that the Hlndoo Is not
"white" within the meaning OF the
statute. But the encyclopedia says that
Il is a greas error to separate the Hin
doc from the Caucasian race. The
Hlndoo. Il thinks. Is much nearer the
white" race than the Arab.
To puzzle the racial Investigator still
further, while everything u 50 clear

we are told by the encyclopedias that
the original Caucasians-that Is, the

TO protect unskined Iaborers and

The other bin requires that all con-

formed.
1t is further ordered that no bill

MAY SUTTON is TO
WE'D CAPITALIST
Harry B. Ham, Banker of Mex
leo City, Gains Heart of
Woman Athlete

Miss May sutton champion woman
tennis player of the world. has sue
cessfully played love game. her en-
gagement to Harry B. Ham. promi
nent banker and capitalist of Mexico
city. having been made public yester-
day.
The news came as distinct sur
prise. Even among her closest friends
there was not the slightest whisper
that the premiere woman athlete of
the world intended entering game
of doubles wherein there was no divid-
ing net and where racket was not
necessary. 1t was generally pre-
sumed that Miss sutton was too much
enthused with the idea of loving Is, 40
or even case of love all to Sc
riously contemplate any proposition of
allowing a mere man to gain van
tage point.
This" said the one who has long
admired Miss Sutton's prowess on the
tennies field, "is most certainly deuce
game. How can woman in love sue
cessfully smash LOBE"
There was. however, no indication OF
this complaint in the recent decisive
victory Miss sutton won over Miss
Hazel Hotchkiss. Her curves were as
bewildering as those of cupid's, and the
latter little gentleman shot with as
true an aim when his arrow struck
Miss Sutton as his victim did when
she volleyed over to Miss Hotchkiss.
1t was following this victory that.
Miss Sutton fold few friends of her
engagement. They. girl like. seeing no
reason for concealment, quickly passed
it on, only to learn later that the
official announcement was not to have
been made until October.
Apart from his interests in the CITY
of Mexico Ham has large oil holdings
in southern California. where he lived
prior to going to Mexico He also has
numerous mining properties in Mexico.
The wedding. it is said, will take place
early in the fall.

The two were engaged, but the par
