was built to replace the one destroyed
near Echterdingen last year. The voy-
age began under rather unfavorable
conditions There was a lowering sky,
rain clouds and a strong wind when
the airship left the floating hall shortly
after 8 o'clock last night. The resi-
dents did not pay much attention to
this, for they were accustomed to night
flights, and when the great ship took
the air at 9.42 there was not a cheer
to speed her on her way. The ship
assembled directly for a few hundred

expected and that the craft will de-

This, however, was not carried out.

was also diminution on timber from
one cent. per cubic foot to one-half
cent, and on sawed boards of white
wood and kindred woods from 81 per
1000 to SO cents per 1000. The re-
duction in the differential rates in
favor of dressed lumber averaged
about one-third of the Dingley rate.
Paving posts, railroad ties and tele-
phone poles are reduced from 20 to
10 per cent. ad valorem; clapboards
from $3.50 per 1000 to $125; laths

The duty on watches was read

There was an added duty of one
half of one cent per pound uron plain
bottle caps, and on decorated bottle
caps the duty was increased from As

The reductions in the metal sched
uie are more numerous and generally
more marked than in most of the
others. Heading the list is iron ore,
which was decreased from 40 to Is
cents per ton. Pig iron, iron kent

from 81 to $3.50 per ton.

Washington.-The schedules of the
new tariff bill, with comparisons with
rates under the Dingley measure, are
as follows:
Rough lumber goes down from 81
to E125 per thousand feet, with cor
responding reduction in the differen-
tial on dressed lumber.

change of consequence, but the en-

and the phraseology greatly changed
In the hope Of preventing reductions
through decisions by the courts such
as have characterized the administra-
ton OF the Dingley law during latter
years. In many instances the rates
intended to be imposed by the Ding
ley law were cut by the decisions, the
reductions in some instances being
from 60 per cent. to eight per cent. ad
valorem. 1t is estimated that the
rates fixed by the bill are about three
per cent. higher upon an average than
those collected on cotton last year.
Probably the most marked reduc-
tions throughout any schedule in the
bill as result of the action of the
two houses and of the conference COM
mittee are found in the metal sched-
ule. Beginning with decrease in the
rate of iron ore from 40 to Is cents
per ton, there is general reduction
throughout that portion of the bill,
pig iron going down from 81 to $250
per ton, and scrap iron from 81 to 81.
The reduction on many of the items in
this schedule amounts to about so per
cent, and this reduction includes
steel rails. There is an increase on
structural steel ready for use and also
a slight increase on razors, nippers
and pliers, and on such new metals
a. tungsten.
Rates on Hosiery Increased.
The rates on hosiery are generally
increased. In the much contested mat
tefxo the rate on gloves the high pro-
tecAonists fail to score. They sought
through an increase made by the
house. to raise the duty materially
above the Dingley figures, but were
antagonized by the senate, and the
senate won, the only change made in
the entire schedule being one slight
reduction.
The silk schedule was reconstructed
with view Of imposing specific rath-
er than ad valorem dutiec, with the re-
suit that the average duty will be
somewhat higher under the new law
than under the present statute.
OIL cloths and lineoleum are heavi-
ly cut but otherwise the changes in
the fax, hemp and jute provision
were not material A slightly in
creased duty is provided for
hemp. both crude and hacked, and
also on certain high-grade laces. On
linen yarns and mattings there is a
reduction.
Sugar and tobacco duties remain
substantially as they are under the
Dingley law. The free importation of
considerable quantities of both of
these articles from the Philippine is
lands is permitted, and a material
change was made in the internal reye-
nue. law by an amendment taking the
tax of the sale Of tobacco In the hand.
There is uniform increase on spir-
its,Tines and liquors of Is per cent.
Raise Rate on Hops.
In the agricultural schedule hops
are increased from IL to is cents a
pound and there is also an increase
on lemons. figs. almonds and pine
apples.
The publishers win their fight for
lower wood pulp and print paper, the
rate on the ordinary newspaper print

In THE UNION
Regular Weekly Letter of the Rev.
Charles Stelzle on Shop Kicks
and Kinks.

f there is one thing above another
that stands out among the fellows that
| know it is the fact that the day has
gone by when the cheap, short-sighted,
ignorant -blatherskite of a walking
delegate or whatever else YOU NAV
choose TO call this kind of a so-caIled
labor leader, can long curse the working
man. His day is done. There is new
type of leader coming on. And the men
who are going to help most are the
men who have come up from the ranks,
or, better still, who are yet in the ranks
Slowly but surely such men are merging
from the masses. Sometimes unappreci-
ated by the very ones whose battles they
are fighting, and whose destinies they are
working out, they are coming up Just the
same, to take the places which belong to
them by virtue of their fitness for the
Job. They aren't the men who have the
gift of CAB. Some of the best men we We
got today are not great orators We
don t need the spellbinder as much as
we need men with patience and endur
ance. There is no job which requires
these virtues more than that of a leader
of laboring men. Most workingmen are
an ungratcful lot, and they expect per
lection in the men that they elect as
their leaders.
After all, there's lots of religion N
the labor movement, take it Just as it is
So far as the practical side of things is
concerned, the trades unions are making
a fight which is about as religious as
most anything can well be. They don t
go in for much of the psalm-singing
brand of religion, and then throw up the
job. They seem to begin just about
where that kind leaves Off And, maybe,
on the whole, they make just as few mis-
takes. Instead of singing about "The
home over there, the fellows that l
know most about are busy trying to get
decent home Ri ht here and now. And
they haven t much use for the kind of
religion which says that their job is not
Christian. Some day the labor fellows
will add to their creed more of the real
spiritual interests III life and then the
church will have to hustle to keep in
the possession. If ever workingmcn get
on to the church job, and really mean
business, there III be something doing,
for who knows how to suffer and sacri
flee more than the men and women in
the ranks of labor? Once let them get
started on genuine religious crusade,
and there ii be a repetition of the days
of the apostles.

DONKEYISM
AND UNIONISM
Pointed Questions Ably Discussed by
One of Our Regular : Correspond
ents-Fu11 of Food for Thought.

Editor of Argus.-Hoping you will
find space for these remarks, other than
the waste basket.
Sometimes you have seen fellows who
are Union men because they have to be,
and again you will find some who are
Union men until some move is made to
help somebody else. then they discover
an Ethiopian in the wood pile. Did you
ever notice, Mr.. Editor, that if those fell
lows were investigated you would find
that the trouble is they pus the gen
tlcman of color in the pile Of wood and
then raised the howl ''nigger in the
wood pile Such tactics Mr.. Editor,
is Donkeyism
When you see man going up and
down the streets and bowling for or
ganization and when effort is made
to organize he does every thing in his
power to retard and hinder the move
ment that man will need watching be-
cause there is something wrong with
his unionism.
Uniopism is conducted different
lines; a man who is n good and true
Union man will not do anything to re-
tard or hinder an honest effort to or
ganize. In the first place the men who
are at the front in the labor move
ment are most always men who are
prominent and popular in the esteem of
their fellow men, and are men who have
studied the matter a great deal. and they
should have the support and backing of
their fellow craftsmen in order to get
the best results out of the movement.
A donkey will work along all right I'M
til You think YOU have him broken in
to make good worker, then some time
when You need him most and are not ex-
pecting anything he becomes stubborn
and won t move step; the only thing
that will move him is fire, nothing else
will bulge him. So that is the way with
some Union men, they get in harness
| and works along all right for awhile un.
| til you need them and then they take
stubs and nothing will move them but
fire. just IKE the donkey. Everybody that
makes any pretense of knowing any thing
knows that if laboring people don t cen

at all. So Brothers get together and put
