OfInterest to Every Amer

Necessities
WHY PRESENT LIVING Is HIGH

tBy Clyde II. Tavenner, Special
Washington Cor. of The Herald
Washington, Sept. 10.-When a
woman purchases $40 worth of wool
en- dress goods, $4.S7 represents the
value of the goods and $5.13 the
amount of the tariff.
This is because of the Payne-Ald-
rich ad valorem tariff of 105 per
cent. Or in other words, on each 81
worth of wooden dress goods import
ed, the Payne-Aldrich law levies a
tax OF $1.O5. The consumer must
pay the 81 value and the $1.05 tariff,
or $2.O5 for one dollars worth of
goods.
~ This is hut one of a thousand IL
Illustrations that could be submitted
to show how the tariff affects the
cost of living.
Here is another sample illustra-
ton for the tariff arithmetic class,
which is composed of some 10000
Nuu AulGl idh NOhSuhiCio, al VI
whom are more or less dissatisfied
with the awful increases in prices
Very Simple Problem.
A suit of clothes having an import
price of SO, and which costs an
Englishman $40 when ready to put
on, all wool and tailor-made, pays at
the custom house an ad valorem tar
iff of so per cent, or So per suit,
making the suit cost the American
when it is put on SIS, disregarding
transportation and retail profits.
Another good comparison: An
English woman carpeting a room Is
feet square with two-ply ingram car
pet, would require SO yards at a dol
lar a yard fiat, or would pay $36. An
American woman using the same car
pet would pay $23.76 tariff at the
custom house, which would make the
carpet cost her S59.76.
Why Prices Are High.
The following table shows a num-
Der of common articles of consump-
ton, the ad valorem tariff rate under
the new Republican tariff law, the
real value of the articles and the
tariff additions on the basis OF $40

Boom Woman Suffrage
At Valley Fair

The woman suffrage cause got a
big boom at the Puyallup fair
yesterday when the suffrage asso-
citation gave "a program and Sena-
tor w. H. Paulhamus practically
took a stand in favor of the ballot
for women.
Several ringing speeches were
made and reports given indicating
that the constitutional amend

enfranohise women in Washing

port.
The pioneers at the fair made
a fine showing. Over loo of the
old timers lined up for the pioneer
parade and the absence of several
who have always been in line be-

that the old tuners are thinning
out in Washington.

Just About A Little Brown

He was little Japanese man
and he had a winning smile, one
of those smiles so often seen on
the face of little brown man,
that seems to expand until it COW

makes you smile unconsciously as
you watch him. He was walking
down C street, near Thirteenth
street, with little brown Japan

had the straight black hair of her
race that seemed to radiate from
the back of her head and spread
out like tiny umbrella shaped

her arms she held big red pack

herself. which the little father had
just purchased for her at the store

charge of a lad, and as the little
brown man passed it stopped and
smiled. Bending over the car
riage he lowered the little brown
girl until she could look at the
little white. -.
"Heddo," said the white baby.
The little brown man said
something to his child and then,
timidly, the little brown child re-
turned the greeting in her baby

child came out of the store, ap-
prehensive at first, but soon see

Reformation bf Criminals"
KEYNOTE OF WORLDS PRISON CONGRESS

CriminolOgists from all over
the world meet i'm Washington
to discuss prison reform.
WASHINGTON, Oct. e.Twenty
years isn't long space In mans
life or a nations existence, but
the last 20 years has seen moro
real prison reform than all the
previous history of penology could
show.
Delegates from every civilized
country on earth are in Washing
ton attending the international
prison congress. The new national
museum building is Babel of
many tongues.
But no matter what tongue they
speak in, these courtly northern
erns, gesturing southerners and
impassive Orientals have come to
tell that the prisons of Siberia
are more humane than that on
Blackwells island; men no longer
go mad In French island penal
colonies; the English knout and
ightless dungeons have Joined the
rack and thumbscrew on civiliza-
tons junk heap; at Leavenworth
prisoners no longer wear degrad-
ing stripes or tread the lockstep,
and the whole world is growing
better.
The congress meets once every
five years, and there Is no more
cosmopolitan gathering on earth.

1t was only twenty years or so
ago that Oscar Wilde wrote of the
British prisons where little chill
dren were penned up with MUIR
derers-place where "by all for
got, we rot and rot"
Twenty years has changed all
that. The modern prison is not a
place of horrors to which offend
ers are sent for punishment, but
an institution for reforming GRIM
mails and turning them into honest
men.
There are some new words In
the session today, words which five
years ago in Paris stood for vague
reforms toward which criminolo-
gists were cropping, but which to-
day represent definite propagandas
which will be written into the
statute books of many nations be-
fore long.
One of these is the 'indetermin-
ate sentence" and a great deal is
being said on this subject at the
congress. The indeterminate SEN
tence will be a revolution in Grim
inal procedure. 1t means that al
offenders found guilty will be
sent to prison not for so many
years, months and days, but il

THE POLICE JURY
The Escape of Prisoners from the Good
Roads Camp Discussed

The Police Jury met today in regular
session
Hon. William Winter, having quail
fed, was seated as juror from Ward
-Four.
The committee on poor farm reported
progress.
There was discussion over the good
roads and the escape therefrom of pris-
oners
Mr.. Miller of the good roads commit
tee, stated that he had received COM
munications similar to those published
in newspapers, purporting TO be signed
by two jurors. He requested that the
two Jurors should rise. There was no
rising
Mr.. Winter commended Mr.. Miller
for the interest he had taken in the good
roads and cited how prisoners have es-
capped from the pen and from convict
camps.
Mr.. Nagle stated that Mr.. Miller
chairman of the good roads committe
had always consulted with the other
members of the committee before max
ling appointments or having done any
work connected with the good roads OF
the good roads camp.
1t was held that Mr. Jacobs, who is
now in charge of the conyicts, was not
responsible for the escape of the prison
ers, whose escape had been effected by
ttheir friends in the night time. The
chain holding the prisoners safe haG
been cut by files.
1t was advised that night guards bt
employed to watch the prisoners anc
secure them from escape.
While no blame can be or is fixed or
any one, the fact remains that prisoner:

policy to have confined in the jail tht
