coNFEREEs ARE BEsIEGED BY
LOBBYISTS WHO WOULD
CHANGE THE BILL.
MANY POINTS SETTLEDI0RDER IS MAIN TANNED
Some Four Hundred Amendments to
the Measure Are Finally Acted Upon
by the Joint Conference Members
From the House and Senate-Sub-
Conferees Have Lots of Work to Do.

Washington, July 13.-By passing
over the cotton and woolen schedules
without taking up any of the amend
ed paragraphs, and skipping the dis
on lumber in the wood schedule, the
tariff conferees were able today to
dispose of about 40 amendments.
Many important subjects such as the
drawback feature of the alcohol para
graph, the rates on oil cloth, and the
various items under the head lof litho-
graphs We're submitted to 'sub-con-
ferees. When the night session was
begun the conferees had reached sun
dries, nearly the last on the schedule.
So many matters had been put over
the future sessions, however, that lit
is difficult to tell just how much pro-
gress has been made.
The moment member of a con-
ference energies from a session he is
surrounded and briefs relating to
various schedules are thrust at him by
lobbyists. Some of the conferees have
adopted the plan of refusing to ac-
cept these arguments, basing their
declination upon the fact that the
bill has been considered in both
branches Of congress and that it is
now the duty of the conference COM
mittee to harmonic the differences
without outside influence Of any kind.
Few of the conferees predict that a
report can be made before a week
from Saturday, but some go as far as
to forecast August /, or later for the
adjournment Of the extra session.
! An unexpected burst of speed was
exhibited by the tariff conferees to-
night, and the first consideration of
the billFwas completed. When to-
rnorrow's session begins the struggle
over the important differences be-
tween the house and the senate will
open. Thus far all of the questions
Involving raw materials, which have
been the subjects of heated disputes,
have been nut over after brief dis
dpssiohs1 held for the purpose of de-
termining the temper of the represen-
tatives Of the two branches Of CON
gress. i r.
/ The bill again will be taken up in
the numerical order of the amend-
ments. which means that the chemical
schedule will be the first.

superintendent Inch Of the electric
railway, contains the first positive
and definite order from the headquar-
ters of w. A. Clark for the beginning

SUPPORT IS PLEDGED
TO WOMAN SUFFRAGE

Seattle, July 13.-When the Pacific
Coast Unitarian conference last Sat
urday affirmed its approval of the
Methodist plank, it changed two words
in plank No. i to commit the Uni
tartan church to suffrage. The Uni
tartan plank reads:
For equal rights and complete JUS
tice for all men and women in all
stations of life." The words land
women are not in the Methodist
plank.
Rev. ]. D. Thomas, the Seattle Uni
tartan pastor, said today:
I'VE arc pledged to the cause of
equal rights for men and women. I
myself am an ardent suffragist and
/ cannot see how any Unitarian can
be anything else"

Butte. July 13.-Albert II. Jones,
known as s/"Rusty' Jones, Andrew
Thomas Howard and Henry Johnson,
all colored, We're today formally held
by the coroners jury for the murder
of. John Jones, who died in the john
son cabin under mysterious circum-
stances on the night of July and
whose body was thrown into de-
serted mine shaft. The testimony has
always been contradictory during the
four days the inquest has been in
progress and many of the members of
the drug colony testified. All
doubt was removed from the minds of
the jurors today when the doctors
who performed the autopsy testified
that the body was in normal healthy
condition and that death was due. to
hemorrhage of the lungs due to ex-
ternal injuries, the prevailing belief
being that the man was given an
overdose of morphine and then beaten
to death.

TEDDY TO The CHAIR

Yosemite Cal, July 13.-Bishop Will
liam M. Bell of Los Angeles in an
Address before the Yosemite Valley
Ghautauqua last night, declared that
if civilian Howard Taft fails to make
a good tariff and disapponts the
people, after making them promises,
it may be necessary to recall to the
White House our dearly beloved Theo-
dore.' Bishop Bell said further that
the times demanded strong, fearless
man for president and also a clean,
fearless president He declared that
the clergy had been too Indifferent to
politics in the past. Wealth, he said,
was centered in a few individual
hands and the time was coming for a
division, 'even if a revolution is nee
essary.'

TIcALLY CAPTURE TIE.

Attention of Royaists Is Attracted in
One Direction While Invading Force

From Another Direction-The Co.'S
sacks Were the Only Defenders.

Teheran, Persia, July 13-Recent
events in Asia are being repeated in
Persia. The constitutionalists forces
are now in possession of the greater
part of Teheran, which they entered
this morning without encountering
any organized resistance. While Sar-
darasad and Sipahdar, the leaders in
the movement, concentrated the at
tention of the royalists by demonstra-
tions to the west, a strong body of
nationalists and Bakhtiars made their
way unnoticed around to the north,
from which point the capture of the
capital was not difficult. The royal
lists are badly situated to make fur
ther resistance, and the Cossacks un-
der command of Russian officers re-
main outside the city entirely cut off
from their comrades.
The strictest discipline is being
maintained by the nationalists. The
nationalist leader in a note to the
Russian and British legations guar
antees surety of life and property to
foreigners. adding that nothing is de-
manded from the shah but a real
constitution. Sipahdar already has
summoned the members of the Mejliss
to witness the opening Of parliament.
The invaders lost only one man while
making their entry into the city. The
loss to the royalists is unknown, but
cannot be heavy as the Cossacks We're
the only defenders to offer resistance.
They are keeping up desultory fire
tonight and occasionally are making
use of their artillery. There is much
i'll feeling against the Russians and
the nationalists are endeavoring to
prevent any incident that might JUS
tify a Russion force entering the city,

Attack Is Made.

London, July ia dispatch from
Teheran says that the nationalists at
tackled the Ccssacks in the barracks
and Artillery square for two hours this
evening without succeeding in captur-
ing the positions. The combat was
fiercely waged, the Cossacks using
shrapnel. A body of the shahs troops.
the dispatch says, is coming from
shahabad by forced marches to the as
sistance of the royalists.
There is little sympathy in England
for the shah who, according to re-
ports from Persia, stands a good
chance of losing his throne Great
Britain, in conjunction with Russia,
consistently urged him to re-establish
the constitution, the failure to do
which has placed him in his present
uncomfortable position.
Great Britain's further action will be
confined to strictly safe guarding Brit
sh interests. 1t is believed that Rus
sa will act similarly.

A TARIFF COMMISSION NEEDED.


The thing most needed in tariff
legislation is more light. Unless
the cost conditions which lie at the
basis of the effort to compensate
home industry are fully explored
and understood it is perfectly clear
that we cannot have rational, sci
entific tariff applying economic prin-
ciples indorsed by the voters of the
country. Under the present method
of tariff making the statement as to
cost of one legislator is matched
against that of another and there is
no authority TO invoke, no clear rule
to apply. each accepting the view ad-
vanced by the interests of his own
state or district. Personal and poll
tical considerations invariably take
precedence of public and economic
ones. A new order of things is de-
manded and Congress can institute
this new order by establishing per-
manent tariff commission vested
with power to examine witnesses,
and to send for papers, etc. Indus
tries which are helped by protection
have duty to perform and should
make a definite accounting of the
benefits of protection, inasmuch as
il is accorded them in the interests
of the nation and not for their per-
sonal aggrandiZement. That some
of the great commercial leaders
have begun to see this is evidenced
by the resolutions adopted recently
by the New York Chamber of Com
merce, one paragraph of which says:
tIt appears clear to your committee
that the time has now arrived when
we should in our country approx
mate the system adopted by other
enlightened commercial nations, and
should substitute for a haphazard
policy of tariff construction based
upon imperfect information and in
fiuences exerted by special interests,
a scientific system based upon ac-
curate and careful Investigation of
existing conditions underlying pro-
duction." Undoubtedly we need
light and more light.

Contrasting Iowa and Illinois.

The lucid discussion Of the tariff
by Senator Dolliver of Iowa has at
tracted the notice of the whole coln-
try. AS a contribution to subject
only too imperfec.'y comprehended
by Ehe public, it is one of the r1ost
important furnished by the present
session of congress.
The state of Iowa is fortunate in
having two senators who are capa-
bic of taking prominent part in the
solution of the great problem now
before the country, for Senator
Cumming. like Senator Deliver, is a
man who commands attention when
he speaks. 1t appears that Mr.. Dol
liver went into the subject in an ex-
haustive manner and put such an
amount of work upon it that he was
able to enlighten the senate and the
country.
And so while Iowa stands square
before the country with her two sem
ators in line and at the front of the
battle. historic Illinois, with su-
perior population and wealth. is
hobbling along in the rear with one
senator. no longer able for hard
work, and the other retired through
the jealousy of scheming, ambitious
politicians. - Bloomington Panta-

WILL PROSPERITY GO MAD ?

The figures of railroad earnings
for May now coming in show that
the roads are earning very close up
to the receipts OF May, 1907, which
was high tide in business history.
Railroad earnings constitute the
most accurate rest of business con-
ditions. They register no mans
dreams, nor do they reflect discount
ing of the future. They reflect more
closely than any other figures the
total consumption of the people.
Having again reached the high
level of prosperity, it remains to be
seen whether this country will
again rush into those speculative
excesses that were principally re-
sponsible for the panics of 1898 and
1907, and for the serious depression
Of 1908. Have our business men
learned caution by these severe les
sons, or will they play the same old
gambling game and invite another
fall about 1911? Will Wall street
continue to create its artificial pyra-
mids of stock, forcing on the public
watered securities that shall fall at
the first news. of slackening indust-
ry? And will retail and manufac-
turing industries borrow money far
beyond their ability to pay if the
squeeze comes? We snail see. We
hope not.

ThS following taken from an ex-
change has lost its identity but it is
the right kind of advice and ought
to be needed by every parent. 1t
says: Teach your bov 10 be true

difficulties with courage and cheer
fulness; to form no associates that
will bring him into degrading asso-
Citations; to respect other peoples
convictions; TO reverence woman
hood; to live clean life in thought
and word as we'll as deed that true
manliness always commands sue
cess; that the best things in life are
not those that can be bought with
money, that TO command he must
first learn to obey; that there can be
no compromise between honesty and
dishonesty; that virtues of punctu-
ality and politeness are excellent
things to cultivate"

State Dairy Commissioner Wright

State Dairy Commissioner Wright
is after the farmers and dairymen
of Iowa who take unclean milk to
the creameries, and the dairymen
who deliver this kind of milk to peo-
pie in cities or towns. Mr.. Wright
emphatically declared in Des Moines
that the Iowa state laws relating to
this matter would be enforced TO the
letter and the offending parties
would be fined to the full limit un-
less the practice is discontinued,
The commissioner says it is not nee
essary TO have dirty milk If the
farmers and dairymen will keep the
stables and cows clean. The Com
missioner is on the right track, but
he will have difficult job educating
some of the dairymen of Iowa to
clean habits in handling milk. Some
of them do not care in what condi-
tion their milk is so long as they re-
ceive pay for it, and these are the
fellows the commissioner will en-
deavor to reach by fine and impris-
onment II necessary.-Parkersburg

The merchant who does not ad-
vertise may possibly get a reputa-

can never make people believe he is
alive. Plenty of dead men have a
reputation for being square, but you
don't go to the cemetery for bar
gains.
