He had to swallow his spleen and let
the crowd stand there and look

incidentally. Dad Pender made an
awful break when he yelled at Judge
Napier to get on the job. With his
customary dignity and poise, the judge
said nothing that could be miscon.
strued by even the most ignorant. but
he informed the public in general and
Pender In particular that his duty
was to take communications from the
wire to the score board and IT was
merely his pleasure to hand the foul
tips back to the catchers His talk,
of course, brought the Jump to his
senses, and humble apologies were
made. 1t will not happen again.

CANADA's EXPERIENCE.
People are Spending More Than They
Il Make In Canada

The American Consul-General in
Canada has furnished government Off
Gals at Washington with advance
proof of report compiled by the Can
adam Department Of Labor bearing on
the increased cost Of living, the same
subject which has been agitating citi-
zens of the United States. Informa-
ton gathered shows rents in Canadian
cities have advanced 40 per cent in
ten years and prices Of foodstuffs have
been correspondingly increased.
Aside from enjoying all the much
touted benefits of free trade with Eng
land, Canada has had no tariff revision
in ten years which offers the slightest
excuse for placing blame for higher
prices on customs duties.
If the Democrats were wise in their
generation they would realize that
something more than local or even ma
tional factors is back of the almost
universal boost in food values.
Desperate desire for something
remotely resembling an issue has
blinded Democratic leaders to COM
nonsense views of the subjects. Vot-
ers do their own thinking, however.
and the tariff argument is going to
prove one of the worst roorbacks ever
launched by an American political
PARTY. Cincinnati Commercial Trib-
uDe.
