THE TARIFF BILLS VETOED,

Holding firmly to his contention
that tariff revision should not be at
tempted in advance of the filing of
the report of the tariff board, which
Is to be forthcoming in December,
President Taft vetoed all the tariff
bills passed by congress this month
ton.
The bills We're three in number,
known respectively as the wool, the
farmers free list and the cotton
bills. The first two were sent back by
the president without his signature
on the 18th instant, accompanied
by messages in which the reasons
for Withholding the executive ap-
prevail were given in strong and can
did terms.
On the following day, Friday, the
18th, determined but unsuccessful at
tempts were made by the Democratic
majority in the house to pass the
bills over the vetoes. Spirited
speeches pro and con were made by
the Democratic and Republican floor
leaders which elected great ap-
plause from their party colleagues,
and the closing scenes of the polit-
ical drama were quite exciting.
The vote ON the wool bill stood
227 yeas to 129 nays; that on the free
list measure, 226 yeas to l27 nays.
IN each case there was lack of the
tWo-thirds majority necessary to over
ride the veto, hence the latter pre-
vailed.
The cotton tariff bill, with senate
amendments tackled onto it reduc-
ing the duties on iron, steel, cotton
machinery and chemicals and proVld-
ing for reciprocal free admission OF
bituminous coal across the Canadian
border, was agreed to in the house
by 100 yeas to LOT nays, but con
gress adjourned Tuesday afternoon
without waiting for the formally OF
receiving and voting on the presl-
DENTAL veto. ~, fi aaAAasa~

RECOMPENSE

Long ago was weary of sorrow,
OF tears that would come in
the night,
Till I learned how to pray in the
darkness,
Then with patience, await the light
And I have had thoughts in the
darkness,
That could never have come in the
day,
When I knew that lifes pain must
all be right,
And to bear it the only way.
l once heard the song of a night
bird sweet,
When my eyes were filled with tears
arose and knelt at the Masters
feet,
And my soul put by her fears.
1 said, "sIf tiny bird can sing
In the dark and gloom of the night,
can surely face what the dawn
will bring!''
Then my last fear winged its flight.
So l pray in the dim white light of
For new sight with which to see
The glories of the Eternal Morn,
Where the Son of Man shall be!

Rice Mill Begins Operations.

The Donaldsonville rice mill start
ed the seasons run on the 14th
instant and was in operation steadily
up to Tuesday night of the present
week, when milling was suspended
temporarily owing to the shortage in
the rice supply, resulting from the
estoppal of field work on account of
the continued rains. Operations
will in all probability be resumed
next week, and most successful
campaign is anticipated. Last year
the local mill handled approximately
100000 sacks of rice, and from
present indications this excellent
record will be equalled and perhaps
surpassed the coming season. The
principals of the capable mechanical
and clerical staffs of the big institu-
ton are as follows: Samuel Petit,
chief engineer; J. w. Wright, miller;
Lawrence Fleming, grader; Alf. j.
Dupre, buyer, representing Louisi-
ana State Rice Company; J. Guy Lam
dry, cashier; Robert Dalferes, steno-
grapher.

Rice Crop Seriously Damaged
by Rain.

The constant rains of the past TWO
weeks have seriously interfered with
rice harvesting, and unless there is
an early cessation of the wet spell
and a return of clear weather it is
feared the rice crop will be ma
terially injured. Copious rains have
fallen in this vicinity every day
since Aug 13, with the result that the
ground is so wet and "soggy' as to
make rice cutting difficult and to
render it virtually impossible to cart
the bundles to the thresher The
rice that had been cut before the
beginning of the rains and had been
we'll shocked is not believed to have
been damaged to any material ex-
tent thus far, but it is apprehended
that considerable injury has been
inflicted on that which has been
cut and is lying across the rows.
Another ill effect of the rains will
be that the rice which is still stand
ing in the fields, if not harvested
shortly, will become over~ripe, render.
ing it hard to handle and greatly
depreciating it's quality. Again, there
is always the danger of a storm, land
should one occur while the ground is
yatersoaked and so much frank rice
is yet unharvested, the loss would
be tremendous.
The rice planters have already
had a great many setbacks and diff
ficulties to contend with this sea-
son, and it is therefore particularly
Unfortunate that they should have
to labor under such Instantaneous
weather conditions just at this
period, when time is SO valuable to
them and every delay because of
rain means such a heavy monetary
loss.
The truth of the old saying, What
is one mans food is another mans
poison, lis exemplified in the weather
conditions prevailing at this time,
since the daily rains which are in
flicting so much damage on rice are
proving of inestimable benefit to
cane. The latter crop is flourishing
like a green bay tree under the in
fluence of the daily showers and
high temperatures of the past fort
night, and has reached a stage OF
| development which presages a splen-
| did yield as to tonnage.

WITHOUT HOMES.

Do women realize that the greatest
danger which threatens our modern
civilization today is the fact that
homes may cease to exist in the
world? In old times each family
owned its home, and the woman could
make of her household a home if she
chose. She did much work for her
family, but she did ii at home; but
today the conditions have changed
The growth of modern industry has
taken the work out of the home, and
with the work ii has taken the work
er. The poor can not afford to have
homes; they have only a tenement,
crowded and over-crowded. But il is
not only the poor who haze lost all
sense of home; even the well-to do
are out for amusement. They do not
want the care and trouble of SER
wants and the housekeeping Yet a
third class. the brain worker, has no
home and does not desire one. This.
indeed. is a very sad state of affairs.
