A GERMAN IDEA.

A Society for the Promotion of Ger
man Modes OF Greeting has been or
ganized at Darmstadt. The motto OF
this interesting organization is why
raise your hate" II is a wasteful
habit to begin with. members of the
society say, because it wears out the
hat brim.
II is further claimed that it is un-
healthful because in bad weather it is
apt 10 bring on colds. But the most
forcible argument Of the society is that
the custom is unpatriOtic because it
was borrowed from the French, the
first nation in Europe TO bare the
head as a form of politeness.
The true mode of greeting for Ger
mans. the members say. is the mill
tary salute, which is of purely Teuton
origin, having originated among the
officers OF the Prussian Grenadiers.
The society has gained many adher-

TAFTs COMING SPEECH.

President Taft has accepted an in
vitation 10 address the National
League OF Republican Clubs at Car
negle hall. New York, on September
80. The President proposes TO tell
what has been accomplished under
his administration and outline his
policy for the next two years.
Without boasting or speaking in a
vainglorious spirit. President Taft can
point with pride TO the record made
by Congress at the last session and
enumerate the wise laws passed for
the benefit Of the country.
He can reiterate his now famous
expression regarding the tariff bill
passed at the extra session. and ne
will find that a large majority OF the
people Of the country agree with him
as TO the excellence Of that measure.
He can call attention TO the enforce
ment of the antitrust and pure food
laws and the great work done by the
depal Aent Of justice in prosecuting
offenders.
He can direct attention to the great
saving being effected in the treasury
department, the postofiice department
the government printing office and
other branches Of the federal service.
He can demonstrate TO the satisfac-
ton of all concerned that work on
the Panama canal is being pushed
with vim and vigor and that the great
project viii be completed in 1915. as
intended when President Taft took
hold OF it,
The President can also justly claim
credit on behalf of the Republican
! trty for the prosperity now being en-
joyed by the people of the United
States.
There is no end OF good Republican
material for a keynote speech, and we
may expect that the President will not
overlook any Of the good things when
he addresses the league Of Republican
clubs next month.

IN LINE.

Warren G. Harding. Republican
candidate for governor of Ohio. was
one of President Tafts visitors at
Beverly last Saturday Mr. Harding
is one of the old-time stalwart Repub-
licans. who fight political battles TO
win. and Governor Harmon can make
up his mind to retire to the shades of
private life on or about January l.
1911.
Mr.. Harding is a firm believer in
the protective tariff system under
which this country has grown so rich
and powerful The Ohio Democrats
have pushed the tariff question to the
front and the Republicans have Joined

With this idea IN view the Ohio Re-
publican convention spoke in no un-
certain tones. the tariff plank of their
platform being especially strong and
well worded. 1t follows:
The tariff has been revised in &C
cordance with the Republican
doctrine of protecting home in
dustries and American labor II
did not raise the rate of duty on
single common food product.
The increases made were on lux
uries and articles not of ordinary
use. II affords no more than
adequate protection TO the indus
tries of the nation. and is fair
alike 70 consumers. laborers and
producers.
No tariff bin was more unjustly as
sailed. It has justified the eE-
pectatlOns of its friends by turn
ing a national deficit into sur
plus. while at the same time re
ducing the average rate Of al
duties. Its maximum and mini
mum rates have operated to give
us for the first time equality Il
opportunity with other nations in
our foreign trade.
The Republican party through Con-
gress and the President has given
free trade with the Philippines
with such limitations as to sugar
and tobacco as viii afford p o.
lection 10 domestic industries and
has established a cUstCm court.
Recognizing Inequalities due TO
changing conditions or that
otherwise may be found to exist
Congress has provided a tariff
board with an ample apprODria-
ton. for the investigation of the
difference in the cost Of produc-
ton at home and abroad so that
If any rates are found To be high
err than necessary TO afford labor
a high wage and capital a fair re-
turn those rates viii be reduced.
The insurgents" and 'progres-
sives' in Ohio were not allowed 10 be-
devil the platform in the matter Of the
tariff The plank adopted is a
straightout Republican declaration. a
clear-eut expression of principles.
There is no webbing in Ohio and
President Taft was doubtless much
gratified as he listened TO the views
OF Mr.. Harding on the situation.

There wasn't any Joker" in the IN
dian appropriation bin passed at the
last session of Congress, and great
surprise was expressed in Washing
ton that the press dispatches should
have carried a story so much at vari-
ance with the facts.
The alleged Joker" was a clause
which permitted the appeal of the
suits being brought by the United
States against claimants for certain
Indian mineral lands in Oklahoma to
the Supreme court of the United
States.
The dispatch in question made it
appear that the claimants would be en-
abled 70 effect a delay Of eighteen
months or more in the settlement Of
the case, thus giving them an oppor-
tunity 10 exploit the lands.
The officials Of the department of
justice say they are not aware of any
clause permitting such an appeal ex-
cept one in a minor bill which was
put ia at the suggestion Of Senator
Owens and with the expressed or tacit
consent of the attorney general. This
clause does away with further action
OF the lower courts, bringing it direct

tincts advantage. they say. to the gov

Governor Is Disguised.

San Francisco, June 2.-The
stand taken by Governor Gillett
against prize-fighting is believed
here to have been caused by the
fact that the governor is receiving
hundreds OF kilograms and letters
daily urging him to interfere with
the Jeffries-Johnson fight.
Church organizations of the coun-
try, particularly in the East and
Middle West have been sending him
advice, resolutions, and entreaties to
take action in the affair. The COM
munications come from all parts of
the world.
The governor faces another bonn
bardment when he returns to Cali
fornia for delegations on the Pacific
coast are only waiting his return to
call on him.

against the fight expressed the opin-
ion that the Communication are

further railroad complications.
Twenty-Five railroads comprising the
Central freight association and oper-
ating between Cincinnati, Louis
vile and Chicago today filed tariffs
with the interstate commerce COM
mission increasing rates from six to
81 per cent and becoming effective
July 1. Increased commodity rates
effective July 1 were also filed by
the New York Central railroad, the
West Shore and the Delaware Lack
awanna and Western.
That government action may fol-
low these filings is not considered
beyond the possible here and should
further suits be filed and the ques-
tions of rates become involved in
further litigation it is believed that
railroads" as a stock market fac
tor, would have a detrimental effect
on financial conditions.

AGREED ON
THE PRICE
OF PRUNES

The members of the Willamette
Valley Prune Association held a ses-
sion in the city yesterday and settled
upon the selling prices for the prune
season Of this year. The prices fixed
upon was a three and half cent
base for 3O-4Os and 40-5Os, and
three and one-fourth cent base for
the smaller sizes, and for the Ore
gon French or Petite prune.
1t has been a custom of the asso-
citation to meet each year and form
a pool, and fix upon price, and
there are about 40 crops involved
in the present pool. The price fixed
will provide fair profit. The al
lowance made for the price of labor
was almost double that of last year,
and the same action was taken with
relation to the price of fuel.

New York, June 2.-That several

as a result of speculation is reported
in Wall street today. In spite of
this, however, it is expected that
there will be a gradual market re-

The big factor in the stock mar

the railroad factor.
The 25 Western railroads against
whom the government has already
brought suit, it is believed, will be
under heavy pressure for some time,
