As in Windham county "the inmates of the jail are employed at outdoor labor successfully, with healthful ad- vantage to themselves. and financial advantage to the county, the Ansonia Sentinel says:
 It would seem as though a plan which could be worked out in this way among short-term prisoners. might be applied even more advantageously among prisoners who are cOnflnedofOr longer terms. Some of the convictS would object, of course. on the ground of publicity Some philanthropist might think it would interrupt the mighty work of moral reformation now so consistently carried on in our pris- ons. Some labor union man might fear that this 'tscab"/ labor would come into competition with him. As a matter of fact, not one of these ob- jections would truly apply to the case. We would like to see the experiment tried on some piece of State road, in the near future. and see the result.
 In a long article which was freely circulated at the time, Judge Simeon F. Baldwin once wrote the following: The man who works out in the open has one companion at his hand that rings true-nature. There is some thing uplifting as we'll as vivifying in the mere sight of sun and sky, and wood and field. A man of the hum blest capacity and the baSeSt diSpOSi- ton cannot be insensible to the large ness of the world around him, and to his own individual insignificance in this great realm reaching out to the stars of night. Confined within walls may almost forget that he is a man. Not so with the earth under his feet the free air stirring about him and the open skies above

 Washington, May 23-The Payne Aldrich tariff revision was upward ,
 It was upward by approximately 1.71 per cent!
 It has already resulted in increased prices.
 Thus did Champ Clark of Missouri leader of the Democrats in the House of Representatives, thunder his re- ply to the speeches of President Taft and other Republican leaders who are attempting to feed a disgusted public on the assertion that the Payne-Ald- rich bill was "the best tariff bill' ever passed.
 MT. Clark's speech had been careful ly prepared. It was a complete and effective answer to the many bald misrepresentation that have been manufactured by the Republicans, who are desperately in need of cam paign material of any sort. Hundreds of thousands of copies of the minority leaders great speech will be mailed out by the Democrats. It is practical ly a handbook on the Payne -Aldrich bill.
 To start with, the Missourian de- nounced the proposed appropriation of $250, ,000 of the peoples money for the purpose of enabling the Republi- S tempt to prove that the new tariff law is a God-send to the country.
 He condemned the joker in the tar if bill. He deplored a condition which permits the steel trust and other mon- opolies to sell their manufactured products cheaper to foreigners than to Americans.
 'It is true,'' Mr. Clark admitted, "that we reduced the duty on lumber, and that the lumber trust marked up the price of lumber $1 per thousand feet before we got out of Washington. And if the department of justice had done its duty it would by this time have filled the jails so full of lumber trust magnates that their arms and legs would stick out at the windows and doors.
 "Mr Payne the Republican floor leader, says that he and his cohorts will meet us in November. Glory be! glory be, never looked forward to any day with such joy as I do to the first Tuesday after the first Monday of November except to my wedding day and the days on which my chill dren were born.
 My Democratic brethren, at last, after hard trials, and great tribula- tions, thank God we stand here shoul- as a stone wall inspired by the hopes of coming victory. Democrats are getting together everywhere, while the Republican party presents to the as- tonished gaze of men the appearance of a dissolving view.
 N "Oh, yes. my Republican friends! You will meet us in November, be- cause you can not help yourselves. And when you do meet us in Novem- Der you will receive the b1odiest lick ing you have had since 1892. Up, guards, and at them!

forcing the old soldiers of the nation to .subsist on from II to 14 cents worth of food per day.
 | An inspector of the War depart ment reported that the food in the soldiers homes was no more in quan- -tlty than that supplied to prisoners in the federal penitentiaries. An idea of the wasteful methods en- ployed in conducting the homes may be had from the fact that although the cost of maintenance more than doubled in the 10 years between 1898 and 1908. the number of soldiers cared for had increased but per cent
 "Let your imagination spread this outlay of 14 cents over a days food supply suggested Representative Cox or Ohio" and you have an accurate picture of how the nations heroes are being fed. Observe the evening meal and you will appreciate what it wa that moved Inspector Brewster to pity, and inspired his recommendation that there be at least a bowl of milk added to the scant evening fare.''
 Frederick M. Kerby, the young in terior department stenographer who that Oscar Lawler, an appointee of Balinger, had practically dictated Presidents Tafts letter exonerating Ballinger, was the sole support of mother, wife and babe. He had work ed hard and conscientiously for five years to reach the position he occupied when dismissed.
 Kerby was positive he would be dis charged if he told his story. He thought the matter over carefully for several weeks.
 T concluded that any allegiance I may have owed MT. Ballinger,' said Kerby twas cancelled absolutely " h silence ha ty to an attempt to smother the truth"
 By making his exposures Kerby was probably treacherous to Ballinger and Ballinger's plans for turning over Alaska coal lands to the Morgan-Gug- to see how he was treacherous to the public in whose service he was en- ployed.
 "rhe new tariff classifications in the cotton schedule,'' says Senator Dolli- yer, Republican, operate to increase duties very materially on most cot ton cloths used for women's and chill dren's summer wear, and on all mer- cerized cottons, figured curtain and upholstery goods, etc. In fact, the Aldrich revision of this schedule was one of the most daringly iniquitous features of the new tariff. The pro- duction of agricultural implements is largely in the hands of a trust, and trifling reduction of per cent on these products was merely for the pur- pose of attempting to fool the farming community
 Tn his speech on the tariff Champ Clark of Missouri declared that if President Taft had vetoed the Payne Aldrich- Smoot bill, he could have written his name among the country's greatest benefactors. "But he let the golden opportunity go by unimprov- ed," added the minority leader, "and it will never return to him as long as the grass grows or water runs"
