REVISE ONLY PARTS
SOME EASTERN SENATORS ADOPT
VIEWPOINT OF WESTERN
ASSOCIATES.
WARM DISCUSSION IN SENATE
AIdrich With Movement, but Opposes
Method of Cummins.-Lodge Will
Also Do All He Can to Further
the Plan.

Washington, D. G. = The senate
listened to the first tariff debate of
the session, and while necessarily the
discussion was largely academic, it
served to develop the important fact
that some Eastern senators, among
them Messrs. Lodge and Aldrich, are
wiling to join with Western associates
in the piecemeal revision of the tariff
The subject came up on a motion
to refer to the committee on rules the
Cummins joint resolution providing for
the limitation of the power to amend
bills looking to the modification of the
paragraphs and schedules of the Payne
Aldrich bill. Mr.. Cummins occupied
the floor in support of the provision,
but was interrupted to such an extent
that the discussion partook largely
of the nature of a running debate. 1t
was during this discussion that Messrs.
Lodge and Aldrich found occasion to
announce their respective positions.
The Massachusetts senator declared
his willingness to do all in his power
to advance legislation for the amend
ment of the tariff schedules.
Mr.. Aldrich favored amendment but
said that he would prefer taking up
the question by subjects rather than
by schedules. He, however, was en-
phatic in his opposition to the Iowa
senator's method of proceeding, which
contemplateS the alteration of the rules
of both the house and senate by joint
resolution Snnatnr uo1n uh0
posed the amendment, did not partici-
pate in the debate. 1t is expected that
he will take ground totally antagonis-
tic to the Cummins program.
Mr.. Cummins contended that unless
the rules of the two houses were
amended there would be no possibility
of amending the tariff, with the conse-
quence that it must remain as it is
until "the people in their indignation
and wrath rise up and compel a gen.
eral revision"
Pension Agencies May Be Centralized.
Washington, D. G. - The eighteen
pension agencies throughout the coun-
try will be centralized in one, if the
senate agrees to the pension appropria-
ton bill as passed by the house. The
bill as passed by the house carries
$153, 900 which is $4,000 less than
was recommended in the bill as pre-
scented.
For Salaries of Judges.
The first step for paying the expenses
of the newly created court of COM
MERGE was taken when Attorney Gen.
eral Wickersham asked congress to
appropriate $17,500 for the salaries of
five additional circuit judges, at $1,000
year from Jan. 1 to June 80, when
the present fiscal year ends, and $49,-
$50 for the other officials and rent of
the new tribunal for the same periods.
South Dakotans Want Job.
A half dozen candidates have already

while Senator Crawford and Represen-

This is the famous Belle Meade
stock farm, just outside of Nashille
1t is an immense estate-several
hundred acres of the finest blue grass

soon after the battle of New Orleans,
nearly 100 years ago. He was one OF
General Andrew Jackson's officers at
the battle, and Old Hickory was a
guest many times in the great Belle
Meade mansion. General Harding's
son-in-law, of General w. H. Jackson,
held the estate for many years after
the formers death, and finally it
came into possession Of Secretary
Dickinson.
"Belle Meade has been noted as a

THE YOUNG MAN
ANO CITY JOB

There are, in the United States,
probably something like one million
young men whose eyes are directed
more or less longingly toward that
glittering, golden business Lorelei,
the New York job. New York, with
its fascinating dash and rush and bull
dings towering into the skies! A
New York job, with its big pay, and
untold chances for rapid advancement
and more, much more, consequent pay
and glory. What an alluring combina-
ton to the young fellow still in col
lege; or to the youn fellow dissatis-
fed with life on the farm; or to the
young fellow disconnected with thu
slow.moving business opportunities
of his home town. What a pretty, en-
ticing picture! But let us look on the
other side.
Clerking VIII bring the young man
anywhere from seven to ten dollars
a week at the start. Eight dollars
would be a very fair average esti
mate. And, in chroniciing these fig
ures, the clerkships in the average
shop are chosen as standards for
judging. If the young man gets a
job in the wholesale house down
town-an office job-he will be start
ed at about eight dollars a week, al
though, obviously, if he commands a
knowledge of bookkeeping or stenog-
raphy, his pay will start at a figure
nearer twelve dollars.
Wall Street, with tbs lofty sound,
is another lure. II the young man
a stranger-gets a job in Wall
Street, he will start in at about six
dollars a week, although the figure
may be listed at eight dollars in
some instances. And the subsequent
raises" will take considerable time
/ to reach the fifteen, to say nothing OF
the twenty, dollar. There is a lot OF
money in Wall Street, undoubtedly
but it isn't in the young mans first
Job.
I II one of these young men gets q
job on the office staff of an insurance
company,he will start in at salary o.
eight dollars a week, this figure, too
being fair initial criterion of the re
Enumeration he will receive from sim
liar jobs with other big companies.

BY q program adopted by Secretary
of the Navy Meyer, on recommends
ton of Rear Admiral Wainwright, his
aid for operations, and made public
today, the United States Navy will be-
gin a reorganization afloat on July 1
which will result within two years
from this date in the biggest and most
formidable feet ever assembled I'M
der one flag of any nation. On July
/ the fleet will number but sixteen
battleships, as at present, but 1T Will
include the four newest and biggest
ships of the Navy, with the Delaware
and North Dakota, just placed in COM
mission. One year later, on July l,
1911, it will include q battleships,
with the Florida and Utah added, and
also {. division Of four of the largest
armored cruisers. On April /, 1912,
the feet will be made up for the clos
ing year of the Taft administration,
with 81 battleships including the Wy
oming and Arkansas, the two $4,000
ton ships Just laid down, with the four
armored cruisers. The commandments

admiral, if possible, in command OF

The organization will be such that

Fleet, will operate much Of the time

vision. fhe fleet will be maintained
on the Atlantic coast, with an annual
foreign cruise, which will take It,
within the Taft administration, entire
ly around the globe.
If the desired personnei increase
shall not have been obtained, the
scheme will be carried out by putting
on the shelfall of the alder gunboatf
and cruisers, in order to provide
sufficient number of officers and mer
for the battleships. This would result
in greatly Gripping the Pacific fleet
since two cruisers are to b'
withdrawn from the fleet of eigh
armored cruisers already in those
waters. Most of the gunboats to b'
sacrificed will be those on the Ameri
can Pacific coast and in the Philip
pines. In two years from the present

time, according to the schedule of
fleet building, which has been care
fully drawn up in table and diagram,
there will not be single battleship,
cruiser or gunboat in service that took
part in the Spanish-American war.
The entire Navy which defeated
Spain will be on the shelf. The best
of the older ships, however, including
the battleships, will be held in reserve
so that with a fleet of 25 powerful
vessels plying the Atlantic seas, there
will be a second fleet, in reserve, of
II battleships-afleet which will be
then as powerful as the entire Navy
was II years ago. If sufficient in
crease can be had, second fleet of
these ships will be organized, possibly
to be added to the six cruisers now on
the Pacific coast, thus making an ar
mored fleet of 16 ships in the Pacific.
On July l. next, the fleet will lie e.
assigned to home yards, so tflt all
ships of division will be at me samc
yard. For the first year, the four big
yards will be given all the fleet ships
Norfolk, Philadelphia, Boston and New
York, only the newly formed special
armored cruiser squadron being as
signed to Portsmouth.
According to the schedule, as adopt
ed and printed, the reorganization of
the fleet on July 1, next, with the
home yards, will be as follows. The
first division to New York yard as
follows The Connecticut, flagship
now at New York; the Delaware, now

Good Road.

The Macon and Fairfield road,
especially that portion over which
Mr.. Earl Skinner exercises super
vision, has yearly called for con-
plimentary. notice from the users
of that highway and from the
BEACON. Mr. Skinner works
two links commencing at the eas-
tern borderiof the Ladd place and
continuing about ten miles east
ward to his own plantation. The
road now is in splendid condition,
the middle high. with proper slope
to the bitches, which are thor
oughly cleaned out. There is no
grass or other growth on the road
way, and the bridges are all in
good repair and strong. The
work was done with scrapers and
the road machine. In the shape
the road is in and so prepared for
draining, a good highway may be
looked for all during the winter
and spring.
Mr.. SINNERS work is a high
public service and demands the
attention and commentator of
the people. Indeed so highly is
his work appreciated that for
several years past the users of
the Macon and Fairfield road
have annually presented him
with a handsome honorarium as
a substantial token of their rec
ognition of his valuable public
service.
This is as it should be. It at
once rewards one to whom re-
ward is due; it shows that I'M

and appreciated, and encourages
