Measures He Favors.

What measures do you think Congress
should pass at the extra session." he was
asked.
"Oh, 1 am a new man and also in the
minority. If you ask my personal opin-
ion. however. I would favor action of
some kind on the reciprocity agreement
and adjourn until the tariff commission
makes report, which can be basis for
tariff revision. 1 am a low-tarin man.
1 believe there ought to be reductions in
the tariff, but 1 would like to have dis
interested Information upon the subject"
The principal products Of Mr.. Kent's
district are wool, wine, raisins. lemons,
oranges and hops-all of them highly
protected under the existing tariff law.
Would you extend the tariff reductions
to those products?" he was asked.
II will raise and sell this year above
2OO,0 900 pounds of wool. I would extend
the tariff reduction to raw wool II a
corresponding reduction is made on man.

Wine Should Be Taxed.

What about wine?"
Wine is luxury and ought to be
taxed. l would tax 1t for revenue pur-
poses and let it take such incidental pro-
lection as a revenue tariff might afford.
And the same with hops that enter into
the manufacture Of beer.
LAS to fruits, all that the people in my
district need is decent treatment from
the railroads and they are not dependent
upon high-tariff protection. However.
that is enc question which a tariff conf

You can challenge fraud and faction
With true glory for attraction

When loss Of fortune meets you
Go ahead!
And the world thinks 1T beats you
Go ahead.
Then strain every nerve and muscle
In the tug of war and tussle
And forever leap and hustle
Go ahead.
When health and hope shall leave you
Go ahead.
And even old friends deceive you
Go ahead
Then renew determination
In every situation
And drink the blood libation
Go ahead.
when grim Death shall surely esil you
Go ahead.
And the latest breath appalls you
Go ahesdi
Then with spirit brsyely bounding
Through heavenly circles rounding
And angel Voices sounding

BUFFALO, June ~. 131l
It has been suggested numerous times
by several people that our British cou-
sins, and particularly our Canadian
neighbors with whom we are Just now
engaged in cultivating closer relations,
might regard a demonstration at the CEN
tennial of the battle of Lake Erie as
an unfriendly. or at least an indicate.
act toward them. We are now trying to
arrange a reciprocity treaty to promote
our commercial interests with Canada:
we are also negotiating an arbitration
treaty which will insure everlasting peace
between the English-s'peaking peoples.
and any event or manifestation that
would interfere with either ought to be
prevented. Evidently nobody has stopped
to think what sort of an impression n
manifestation of national triumph on the
Perry anniversary and the erection of a
permanent memorial to commemorate q
British defeat might have upon the Eng
lish and Canadian minds. and President
Taft, after everything had been arranged
for, was advised to consult Ambassador
Bryce, who is not at all sensitive, but
ono of the most matter of-fact men in
the world.
When the program for the coronation
pageant in London was announced Lord
Strathcona. imperial commissioner in
London from Canada, requested the COM
mittce i'm charge to eliminate CANADA

entitled "Chateaugay. Where Canada
Was Held for the Empire" and was in
tended to represent the defeat through
superior strategy and greater courage OF
an invading American army by q. handful
of Canadians. 1t was thought that this
float might wound the feelings of Ameri-
can visitors and endanger the pending
Anglo-Amerjcan arbitration treaty. But
when they learned of the plans to cele-
brate the centennial of Perry's victory
in 1913 the committee in charge restored
the "Chateaugay" float to the program,
and il was effective feature of the
