YOUNG AST0R OFFERS $500

LONDON. jan. l2.-Conser,ative
leaders adopted new tactics today in
their effort 10 convince the voters that
the adoption Of protection as proposed
by them, will work great Industrial
benefit To England.
Young Waldorf Astor. the Conscr'
vative parliamentary candidate from
Plymouth. says he will give $1,000 10

the first year OF operation OF the pro-
posed tariff. Charles Bayer. Bath
manufacturer. announces that he Will
give So 500 TO charity IL he does not
increase the number OF his employees
by 900 within two years under a pro
tective policy.
Other offers OF this sort have been
made and the effect Is TO make many
workmen TO believe that the end oil
their troubles will come with the
adoption of protection.
Balfour favors protection. but re-
fuses TO say that protection will end
the unemployed problem: he urges a
big navy as defense against German
aggression, but refuses 10 say that he
believes Germany is preparing for a
war against England: he depreoiates
the Liberals attacks on the peers. but
confesses that the house OF lords
needs reformation.
At Glasgow last night Balfour ac-
tually shocked his big audience by re-
fusing To predict the result OF the
election. The best comfort he could
hold out to his Conservative audience
was that II am sure that the radical

CITY EXPENDITURE GROWS.


Controller Doremus has prepared an
interesting table showing the division
OF municipal expenditure during the
past four years. As will be readily
seen. the cost OF practically every line
of city endeavor has increased since
1905, this being particularly the case
with the expenditures for schools. The
police funds have grown less in pro-
portion to population than any OF the
other large divisions. This table will
be a part Of the forthcoming report OF
the controller for the fiscal year end
ing June 80. 1908. The table follows,
