AFTER BOTH OF THEM

Tie West is said to be greatly
dissatisfied with the new tariff law
and 10 have not the most kindly feel
ing for President Taft because of his
signing The bill and lateter. his de-
clarations in support of Senator Aid
rich and the trainers of the meas
ure and the men who stood behind
the gun and forced its passage
Through congress.
Not only is the West dissatisfied
but the Middle West is also out of
joint about it and is not likely 10
get in the best of humor before the
next election unless some very radical
changes are made in the meantime
This is hardly likely, for the coun-
try will scarcely have become ac-
customed TO the new order of things
and congress will hesitate TO make
any changes until the test has been
made About the only section of the
whole country whi,h really seems 10
be satisfied with the new law Is that
part of the East which revolves
around Wall street as a hub. Those
fellows, the moneyed men of the
country ale well enough satisfied.
They like nigh tariff and since
il is shown that the new law in
creaSes the rates rather han dimin-
lshes them. they have no reason to
object to the measure. On father,
East, down in the New England
States little has been heard. In fact
it is just barely possible they do
no know that a new tariff law has
been passed and when they do awake
10 the fact, they will be too reticent
to say wheher they like it or not.
President Taft has made long
swing about the circle, partly with
view to ascertaining real conditions
an some sections. but largely for the
purposes of building up a few politi'
cal fenses 1t is pretty certain that
his trip will do him no good. The
West has not taken kindly TO him
and seems 10 feel that II has been
handed lemon. The leaders OF the
party have seen this condition al
most from the beginning OF the trip
and have tried to counteract it by
drawing all possible attention 10

CHICAGO LETTER

Chicago, Nov. 1.-THE opening
gun in the war between The Insur-
gents" and President Taft over the
tariff bill may be fired in Chicago by
Senator Albert B. Cummins of Iowa
on November l6. The Iowo senator
who took a prominent part in the
fight on the tariff bill at the last
session of congress will be the guest
of honor Of the Marquette Club on
that night. and the principal speaker
of the occasion. Local politicians
are of the opinion that Senator
Cummins will take advantage of the
opportunity to reply to President
Tafts recent speech at Winona,
Mimi, upholding the tariff. and that
he will pay especial attention to Sem
ator Aldrich and Congressman Cam
non. 1t is the general belief that the
Iowa statesman on this occasion will
uphold the actions of himself and
his associates, La Toilette, Long, Bev-
eridge ct al in the Senate, and Par
sons and Murdock in the House. when

will enliven things when he picks up
the gauge of battle thrown down by
president Taft in his -tariff speech

PLANS FOR ARMORY
NEAR THE PRESIDE
National Guard Officials Seek
Site for Building

Now that an appropriation for an ar
mory for San Francisco has been au-
thorized and the governor has prom
ised to sign the bill, those who are
most interested IN the proposition are
looking around for a site for the build
ing. In view of the fact that it is to
become the home OF the dozen com
panies OF the coast defense artillery
branch. It is proposed to secure a block
of land within easy reach of the coast
defenses on the Presidio military reser-
vation and build thereon a structure
that will accommodate such artillery
companies as are to be organized on
request OF the war department, and
all other organizations in the city.
With the funds at hand 1t is thought
that at first there should be erected
a basement and one story building
with foundation and walls adequate
for one or two more additional stories
1t is proposed that there shall be ex-
ecutive offices for the commander in
chief. adjutant general of the state,
company rooms for the artillery and
cavalry, brigade headquarters, quarters
for the signal corps, a band room and
a large drill hall on the ground floor
In the basement there is to be es-
tablishe d a target range, storerooms
for equipment and ammunition and a
gymnasium.
All the modern appliances are to be
provided after the style OF the best
armories in the east, to give the city
a building to be proud of and serve
as one of the landmarks.

GAMECOCKS
KILLED BY SOCIETY
Birds Taken in Raids Valued al
$4,000

Chicken fanciers and spOrtsmen in
general are mourning the execution OF
81 gameeocks, valued at about $4,000
as fighting cocks, by the Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
at their ambulance house in East
Twenty second street. The birds We're
taken in raids made recently at New
Rochelle and Jamaica, l.. i. AT New
Rochelle one of the societys agents
was found enjoying the main and was
convicted and fined $50.
The birds were taken to New York
in the big automobile ambulance given
TO the society by Mrs Russell Sage.
Before the New Rochelle consignment
was turned over to the society the
police had several offers OF 500 each
for various birds if they would return
them 10 their original owners. One
man offered as high as $500 for a
single bird. This was the famous one
eyed rooster said to be the champion
of New York state He was owned by
fore each battle ne was fed on chopped
meat and sherry wine to make him
pugnacious, and hot butter was put on
mis- tongue every day to prevent him
from getting the pip.
The society would not permit the
birds to be returned TO their owners.
nor would they allow them to pass
to any private ownership, for the rea-
son that it might encourage the breed
ing and lighting OF gamecocks. The
whole consignment was therefore de-
stroyed in gas tank. and the en-
pIoyes of the society report that they
expired without struggle. The
bodies were disposed of as offal.-New

that 1t was kept for him? My servant
found it, and that evening while we
were at dinner he called, got the um-
brella and came in to thank me. Then
he told long story as to how he val

the right weight and showed a dent

made by his little boy when he used

LITTLE ELIZABETH is A

Five Dollar Coin Reposes in

Little Elizabeth Boyer, daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Otto Boyer, of Plymouth,

In her little "tummy' a nice new five
dollar gold piece. says the Buffalo News
It is the result of a mistake Elizabeth
made when she attempted with
marked success to impersonate a saw

Elizabeth's papa gave her mamma a
nice new pocketbook for Christmas.
In it were two bright yellow coins
that dazzIed Elizabeths eyes 80 she
could hardly look at them. Elizabeth
likes to be dazzled, SO when her mother
left the pocketbook on the dining
climbed laboriously upon a chair and
dragged the purse off into her Ian.
Then Elizabeth began to hunt for a
spot to put the coins into, for. of
course, money is no fun without some-
thing 20 drop 1t into, so it will shake
around and make a nice rattle. Eliz-
abeth couldn't find anything with q
slot in 1t. Such a slotless bunch of
house furnishings she never saw before
Then a bright idea struck her She
she could. The coin just fitted.
Just then mother rushed in and
realizing the situation uttered a fright .
ened shrek, whereupon Elizabeth
gulped scared little gulp, and the
coin was gone forever.
DOCTORS were called, nasty medicine
was poured down Elizabeth's throat.
