FROM SMOKE. TOWN AMATEURS

From the sand lots of Pittsburg
to Cleveland's new half-mililon-
dollar ball park, from obscurity
TO fame, all in the brief period of
two months, seems to be the leap
Harry Kirsch, 20-year-old pitch
ing phenomenon, is about to COM

In this day of highly developed
base ball 1t is rarity for kid to
break into the big show without
first cleaning the elementals of
the game from at least one years
service with minor league club.
Yet 1t looks as though Kirsch was
going to take short cut straight
to the top of the heap.
He wasn't given a look-in for a
regular job when he was taken
south Feb. 10. His work from the
start created good impression.
however, and now he has been
picked as ono Of the seven twirl-
ers who will take regular turns
in the box for the Maps when the
season opens.
Kirseh is well made lad. He's
about six feet, weighs ITS, has
speed, control, fast breaking
curves. and cool head. The lat
ter is surprising asset for
youngste-. He beat the st. Louis
Cardinals 3 to March 23, letting
Bresnahan's regulars down with
-four hits He famed six.

MULCT TAX ASSESSED
Officials Make Another Move in New
ton Drug store Gases and Question
Court For Final Ruling.

Special to Times es-Republican.
Newton. March ia sensational
move has been made in connection
with the suits for injunction against
the druggists Of this place, and 1t is
proposed to collect the mulct tax from
them. AS the buildings are held liable
for these taxes, it is probable the
owners will carry the matter to the
Iowa supreme court for final adjudica-
ton, as questions are involved never
passed upon by the courts.
The assessor has served notice on the
druggists and building owners that the
mulct tax will be assessed. and the no.
tice not only includes those druggists
recently enjoined for illegal sales, but
Westbrook & Co. whom the court re-
fused to enjoin because the alleged
nuisance had been abated. Several of
the owners of the buildings are nom
residents, and they will resist the coll
lection of the tax on the ground that
they could not have known that the
tenants were conducting an illegal bus
mess The resident owners will also
make this same defense, as they say
that the druggists held permits to sell
liquors and were believed to be COM
plying with the law. The tax Is claim
ed for the past three quarters Of the
year, or from July last.

luxuries and the decreases on neces-
stiles, and in the first six months of
the law more than 81 per cent of all
importations were rfree of duty, the
largest percentage OF free imports we
have ever had under any tariff, not
even excepting the Walker tariff of
1886, called a free trade tariff. The
increase of revenues has been nearly
$50, ,000, 900 in six months, making the
Payne law the best revenue producer
we have ever had, and that Is prime
necessary in our increased expenditures
for the greater development of the

Tariff Pledges Redeemed.
"The republican party has carried
out its tariff pledges in a way to just
ify the presidents pride in that en-
actment and it will carry out it's
pledges as it has time for discussion
and agreement on the form of the wise
legislation to meet these pledges.
"The present congress in regular
session has been more energetic and
more successful in carrying forward
the work before it than has any other
congress in recent years. More work
has been done in the three months
which the session has now run than
was accomplished in the same time by
the Fffty-ninth congress. which Pres
ident Roosevelt said enacted more wise
legislation than any other congress in
the preceding half century. The house
has already passed nine of the great
supply bills to meet the obligations nf
the government, where, as on the 1st
of March in the Fifty ninth congress
the house had passed but three of
these bills, and in the SiXtieth con-
gress had passed but four at the same
time.

do not speak of this phase of the
bill in a spirit Of anger. I am con-
scious of no other sentiment than pro-
found regret. recognize that it is not
only the privilege but the duty of the
president of the United States to make
such recommendation to congress as
in his Judgment will best promote the
general welfare. He is quite within
both his privilege and his duties in ex-
pressing his views upon such subjects
as often as he likes and as emphatical-
ly as he pleases. Whether he is within
his privilege or his duty when he un-
dertakes to prescribe the precise form
which legislation shall assume may
well be doubted. His great predecessor
evidently thought that executive prop
riety did not permit it, for when he
was dealing with the same subject. in
his message at the beginning of the first
session of the Fifty-ninth congress in
1905, he said:
"It is not my province to indicate
the exact terms of the law which
should be enacted, but I call the atten-
tion Of the congress to certain existing
conditions with which it is desirable to
deal"

attach much Importance to the prac-

Altho a senator may be in
full sympathy with the broad purposes
which the executive proposes to accom-
plish, the moment he asserts his inde-
pendent view of the best way to ac-
complish the purpose, he finds himself
in direct conflict with the president,
and he must choose between losing the
favor and doing the thing
as his conscience tells him It ought to
be done. The result will inevitably be
that he must either surrender his in-
or be In constant and most
conflict with the chief
