TAFT HEARS REPORT
CHANGES HIS MIND

Washington, Dec. 27.-Sched-
ule K, fixing the tariff on wool
in the Aldrich-CannonTaft tariff
bill, will be cut if congress is will
ing to reduce it in accordance with
Taft 5 ideas. Taft vetoed the bill
passed bv congress last spring, re-
ducing the tariff on wool, but in
transmitting the report of his tariff
board to congress today, the pres
ident urges congress to again re-
duce the tariff.
The tariff board declares that
MANY schedules of the PAYNE tar
if law are prohibitive Re
garding the difference in cost OF
production at home and abroad ,
the report declares that in nearly
every wooden product, from dirty
Aeeces to finished worsted cloth, 1t
costs more to produce wool ana
wooden goods in the United States
than in any country on earth. IT
costs 10 cents to raise a ponnd Oh
wool in Ohio. while in Australia II
costs considerably under cents.
While American labor is much
higher paid than the labor OF Eur
one the board finds that i; is not as
eaicientas that in the European
mills.

Now this is very interesting.
1t shows that something is the
matter with us beside tariff and
trusts, though these have had their
potent influence in making the era
of high prices.
The other fundamental trouble
is the waste inherent in our pres
ent methods of distribution. If
this could be eliminated, the farm
CT might get twice as much, and
live twice as we'll, while the con-
sumner would pay only half as
much, and thus be twice as wei,
off himself.
The remedy will be found, be-
cause. in the name of humanity.
it must be found 1t will doubt
less be some form of corporation
which shall bring producer and
consumer closer together, elmi-
nate middlemen and discard many
needless and expensive features
OF competition in distributing the
products of farm, mill and facto-
ry.
It's a job for a statesman of
somewhat larger caliber than the
ordinary run of shad, y don t
YOU think.

the slightest fault can be found with
either. Al Monte is clever comedl-

Sunday Closing at Postoffice.

There is a very strong sentiment
throughout the country in favor of
closing postoffices on Sunday as
shown by petitions received from re-
ligious organizations and CONNER
cial bodies, by numerous letters and
petitions from the general public.
In large number of offices the
department has authorized the dis
continuance of Sunday service where
the sentiment was favorable and
seemed to justify such actions. The
postmaster is authorized to discon
tinue Sunday delivery, through the
carriers windows The department
realizes that a search of the carriers
cases by the general delivery clerk
would consume a little time but it is
anticipated that patrons will refrain
from calling for mail ON Sunday un-
less the occasion is urgent and that
under such circumstances they would
be willing to wait. Any patron desfr-
ing an important personal commun-
ication delivered to him on Sunday
should be accommodated upon pay
ment of the prescribed fee for spe-
cial delivery service. Mail will be
dispatched as usual, all mail receiv-
ed will be distributed in postoffice
boxes Immediately after we receive
same. Business men who desire their
mail regularly on Sunday shoulG be
allowed to rent boxes
The above instructions was receiv-
ed from the first assistant postmas-
ter general and will be enforced in
the WaXahachie postoffice
