trouble. There was dull pain in the
small of my back and had sharp twinges

SAME HERE.

If many subscribers would stop to
consider for a moment that the man
aGement of the paper has most of its
bills to settle every thirty or sixty
days, We believe they would be a
little more prompt in settling sub
scriptions. Half the time it is just
negligence or procrastination that
leads subscriber to put off sending
money enough to pay for the paper.
The average subscriber does not in
tend to wilfully put off paying when
he is reminded of the amount due,
but in many cases contents himself
with promise that he will give the
matter his attention the following
day. When the following day comes
he has probably forgotten the whole
thing and does not recall it again for
many months.
We appreciate the fact as well that
it may happen that man may really
not have the money and in that case
he is perhaps excusable. There are
other instances where mistakes are
made SO there must be where there
are SO many accounts, in which case
the management is always ready and
willing to rectify any error it may
have fallen into.
Once again We appeal to those of
our subscribers who are able and who
are in arrears to be as prompt as
possible so that we may meet our
obligations as promptly as any other
business concern.

he GROWS FAT
ISAAC YATES DOOMED TO DE, TAXES
on WEIGHT ONPRIS0N GRUB.

Moundsville, W. Va, August s.
With death sentence hanging over
you, don't you think that you'd
worry yourself into asemblance of
living skeleton Perhaps. That
there is doubt about it, the exam
pie OF Isaac Yates, who is confined
in the state penitentiary, condemned
to die next month may be cited.
Upon his arrival at the state peniten-
tiary, Yates weighed III pounds.
Today he tips the scales at exactly
I'll pounds, The fact that he is soon
to give up his life for crime he has
committed does not seem to have any
effect on either the physical or men
tai condition of the man.
He is always apparently happy and
contented and seems to worry not at
all over the fact that he is to be
hanged. The fact that a man may
gain fifty-sour pounds in about
three months, while living in the
shadow of the gallows is almost an
unprecedented occurrence. The rea-
son for Yates calmness and apparent
happiness lies in the fact that he is
expecting reprieve from the govern
or of the state, but even at that, how
many men out of hundred would
not be worn to mere shadow from
the suspense and worry incident to,
the trial and conviction through
which this man has passed.
That Yates has either got supreme
control over his worrying apparatus
or else his mentality is such that he
is incapable ofworrying, would natur-
ally be the general conclusion of the
majority of people, for even If a
lighter sentence than that of death
were certain instead of possibility.
there are very few. men who could
gain weight while waiting for death
on the gallows.

DEMOCRATS UNITED
AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT CHAMP CLARK
SAYS.

Washington, D. c., August o.
In reply to what he terms the mis-.
representations of democrats in the
papers, Champ Clark, leader ofthe
minorityin the house of representa-
tives today gave out statement re-
garding the course of the democratic
members of the house in connection
with the consideration of the Payne
tariff bill. Clark is angry because
some papers of his own party have
stated that the democrats were not
united, and that had they stuck to-
gether they could have defeated the
conference report. He says the
democrats in congress are more unit
ed than ever before. He claims
that the tariff bill is not revision
downward and that the average rates
are 9 per cent higher.

IN times before, IT brought forth a
mouse. The conferees of the two
Houses of Congress got together up
on a tariff bill which satisfied the
President and it is alaw. The Grand
Old Party, rent and torn by dissen-
SONS over rates OF duty, will 90 forth
70 face the American people and its
various Congressman will seek re-
election by various and devious argu-
ments. Those in the rural districts
VIII " point with pride" TO the re-
ductions made and explain how, the
consumer viii profit thereby, a
strange argument for a Republican
Congressman, who, for forty years,
has VociferouSly and yehemently ar
gued that the higher the protection
the lower the price and that the for
eigner and not the purchaser paid
the tariff tax.
Those in the manufacturing dis
tricts will crate upon the way they
struggled to save the ancient principle
protection and prevent the wicked of
insurgents and destructive Demo

American manufacturers and indus
tries to the bow-wows. To fool the
people of both sections and preserve
its power is task that no other par

the G. o. P. can succeed its position
will be novel and unique.

been SO juggled that few effective
changes were made. Where reduc-
tons occur it is in prohibitive rates.
The consumer will not be benefited,
the producer will not be hurt and the
Government will get no additional
revenue. Save and except that the
Leather Trusts demand for free
hides was acceded to there is little to
it. That company alone will receive
a direct benefit of $50, 900 per day
from this, but innsmuch as the much

the public will have to wait for its
share ofthe blessings and profits up
on even this change.
On the whole the Government, as
badly as it needs it, gets almighty
little more revenue and a tax must
be imposed upon the incomes of all
corporations, big and little, to make
up the deficiency. The incorpora-
ted concern must pay tax to the
federal government, in addition to
its charter tax to the state, while its
individual competitor across the street
will go free. Meantime prices rise
and soar and the farmer and labor
ing man goes on pouring his earnings
into the pockets of the protected
class.

The Steel Trust is pleased with
the new tariff bill. The other trusts
have not been heard from, but there
is reason to believe they are equally
gratifed. They wrote it all right.
