Reunited.

Once more our hamlet has been visit
ed by the angel reaper and another spir-
it garnered in.
After three weeks and three days sep.
aration John Argue and his beloved
partner Of over fifty years Of earthly joys
and SORROWS, are reunited in that beau
tiful home in the celestial city. We're it
not for the sense of lonliness that be-
reavement brings to those who remain,
We can scarcely conceive of anything
more beautiful than the "going home,
in such close proximity Of an jagged cou-
pie, who had so we'll rounded out the
allotted span of useful and active life.
Seemingly as it were in answer to
their expressed wish that no lingering
illness would make their declining years
burdensome to others.
John Argue was one of family of ten
children, only two of which survive
him, Henry Argue of Melbrook, Ont. land
Mrs. Thomas Cal of Brantford, Ont,
He was born in Durham county, on May
May 9Th. 1880. At thirty one he was
united in marriage to his deceased wife
and together they jourheyed in beautiful
harmony of life, ever sharing eachoth-
er's hopes and ambitions. In 1880, with
their six sons they came to this county,
and we're among the pioneers. The sur.
viving children are Jos. E. of Victoria

The news from China which show that
the revolutionists have been making

COMPROMISE ON
WOOL TARIFF
COnferees Decide on 70 Per
Cent. Ad vaIOrenl
MAY ADJOURN NEXT WEEK
An Early Agreement on the Farmers
Free List Bill is Also Expected and
Congress viii Then Adjourn.

The entire conference committee Of
Of the house and senate on the wool
tariff revision bill agreed on nat
rate Of 20 per cent on raw wool.
The committee also agreed on the
house classification of wool.
The agreement on these two points
seemed to remove the greatest obsta'
cles In the way OF final compromise.
As a result OF the agreement on
wool and expected understanding on
the farmers free list, expectation OF
an early agreement was revived. II Is
said the two tariff measures will be
sent to the president Monday. his veto
messages are looked for Immediately
after, and adjournment Of the extra
ordinary session may come next Wed
nesday. If there is slight hitch. tho
end of the session Is expected Thurs
day or Saturday at the latest.
The compromise came out Of ne
gotiations between Senator La Fol-
lette, insurgent Republican, and Rep
resentative Oscar Underwood. the
Democratic leader of the house.
The original house bill bearing Mr..
Underwood's name provided for duty
of 20 per cent on raw wool and the
La Toilette bill, passed by the senate,
placed this duty at IS per cent. The
average between these two would
therefore be 27h per cent. so that
apparently Senator La Toilette has
scored more heavily than NJ. Under
wood In the negotiations.
The other duties In the wool tariff
bills usually conform to that on raw
wool.
There was much wrangling over the
classification. Ultimately. Mr. Bailey
suggested a compromise of 2SA per
cent. Immediately Mr. Underwood
said he would accept 20 per cent. II
the house classification should pre-
vail. Mr.. La Toilette assented and
II was agreed to.
Continuing its work the conference
fixed the rate on wool wastes, noils
and shoddies at 20 per cent. to COR
respond with the rate on regula
wastes. This was an increase over
the house rate. which was go per cent.
The conferrees fixed the duty on
combed wool. tops, etc, at "a per
cent, an increase Of 3 per cent. over
the house rate, and q decrease OF
per cent. from the senate rate. On
yarns, the rate was made 80 per cent.
against the house raet of 80 and the
senate rate of IS.
