GOV. WILSON'S TARIFF VIEWS

In an interesting article on Wood

Isaac +. Marcosson credits the govern
or with the following viewpoint on the
tariff situation:
II believe In a tariff for revenue
only, but I recognize the fact that our
existing economic system has been
built on the opposite theory. Any
change In our scale OF duties ought to
be brought about by prudent and we'll
considered steps, and with statesman
like regard for every legitimate inter
est involved. We ought not TO impair
our industries or imperil the employ.
ment of our working people.
Everybody will agree that IL our
tariff policy Is indeed to be protective,
and TO seek the objects which IL has
always pretended to seek, II Is per-
fectly legitimate that II should pay a
very careful regard to the business
interests of the country taken as
whole But that is a very different
matter from paying regard TO the In
dividual interests Of particular under.
takings and of particular groups OF
men. The long and short OF the whole
experience, as we now see II. Is that
our whole tariff legislation has degen-

rHE MAID OF AUTUMN.

THE MAID OF AUTUMN.
A maiden walks the hills today
In garb OF pearl and silver gray;
She wears a veil OF Jeweled mist
That can the keenest sigSt resist;
HGr feet are bright In shiny shoon,
She moves as to wedding tune.
And everywhere she gently goes
Fades every leaf. dies every rose:
The grasses change their summer
hue,
The SKIS puts on a deeper blue:
The brook no more sings cheerfly,
Its song grows dark with mystery
When hills are gray with slant OF
rain
Some human hearts seek Joy In vain:
The falling leaf, the fading rose
Each on their life a shadow throws
They. know OF death. the long, deep
sleep.
That partings come and hearts must
weep.
But autumn has no grief for me.
For I have solved the mystery:
The maid who walks the quiet l,ills
And charms the happy singing riils
She is--her secret I'll onSeas

MAYOR WOoD OF Cpur d'Alene

in favor OF the municipal saloon
as against the common licensed

the municipal saloon can.
Another is that the subtle politi-

municipal saloon; and a third is

the reckless manner in which the

JOE PELTIER WILL HAVE s.
A NEW TRIAL
Sheriff OF Bottineau County Was at
the Capital City Saturday for the
Prisoner.

Bicmarck, N. D., Feb. 1.-THE Pei
tier muruer case will come up for
trial in Rottineau the coming week.
Sheriff Boyd of Bottineau county was
an arrival here today for the purpose
of returning with Joe Peltier who was
convicted and sentenced to death for
the murder of A. johnson, and his
neice, in the Turtle Mountain country
of 3ottineau county over year ago.
The convicted man in company with
his b: 7ther and an Indian named Ris-
ing Sun committed one of the foulest
crimes in the history of the state, and
at the trila both of the Peltiers were
sentenced 10 death. The evidence
against Rising Sun was used by the
state, which aided in the conviction.
The younger of the Peltiers received a
communication Of sentence by the gov
ernor, and Joe Peltier was granted a
new trial by the supreme court last
January. The second trial will take
place before Judge Burr at Bottineau.
Statas Attorney Weeks will be assist
ed in the prosecution by former States
Attorney Bowen, who conducted the
prosecution at the first trial.
