Tariff Revision Inevitable.

The truth is that the people of
the United States are determined to
revise the tariff. The more swiftly
the process proceeds the better it
will be for all interests concerned.
Tariff boards can be useful in their
modest statistical way. but they are
of only slight consequence in an
emergency like that which now
exists. AS these pages have more
than once set forth, the tariffcom-
mission method is a Republican
proposal rather than a Democratic,
and it presupposeS a gradual, sci
entific reduction of duties from the
standpoint of the Republican pro-
tectioniSt policy. The Republicans
held out this olive branch to the
voters of the country last fall, iand
the voters rejected it with an en-
phasis that could hardly be mis-
taken except by those of dull wit.
The people of the country believe
that there is quite enough informa-
ton about the production and cost
of wool and wooden goods to justify
tariff action. Thery are very few
people who believe that as matters
now stand the tariff board, with
its statistical tables which are to
be held in reserve until next Dec
ember, could affect the course of
practical legislation. or divert the
current of public opinion, as re-
spects the wool tariff. From The

PrOded a Tramp.

Every body remembers Bill Nye's
experience in trying to turn over a
frozen steer to examine the brand.
How the steer suddenly came to
life and kicked Mr. NYe into the
top of a sycamore tree in another
township in Range 10, west of the
37th principal meridian. Well,
Marshal Stephens was perhaps as
greatly surprised late one evening
last week when he took a stroll
through the Burlington yards to
notice for suspicious characters and
see that things were alright in that
locality. In his rounds he came up
on a tramp asleep in an empty box
car and using his cane as a prod
ordered the fellow to get out. The
tramp muttered his disapproval at
being disturbed at such ain unusual
hour and was apparently slowly
complying, when without warning
he struck the officer over the head
with some solid substance, probably
a large iron nut or bolt, and before
the marshal could recover from his
dazed condition and mop the blood
out of his eyes, the tramp had
made his get away, The blow
caused small abrasion on top Of
the head which bled quite freely
for a while but did not amount to
much. Mr.. Stephens will probably
be more cautious the next time he
approaches a tramp as he declares
this was the result of his own care
lessness.

You can't tell. There is something

The Price of Eggs.
To Wallaces' Farmer:

To Wallaces' Farmer:
In your issue of July 2Sth l
notice your comment on parcels
post. l would like to call your at
tention to the position you take on
the price of eggs. Your article reads
as if you hold the retailer response
bic for the low price paid. am
sure you don't want to do an in
justice to anyone and would not in
tentionally put forth misleading
statements. Fortunately you men
ton the dates on which the great
disparity in prices occurred. If you
will look this matter up you will
find every retailer shipping eggs at
that time had to take loss. The
extreme warm weather spoils eggs
in twelve to twenty-four hours to
such an extent that they will not
meet the requirements of the pure
food law. | am a travelling man
and visit stores every day and /
know the merchants lost money on
all the eggs they have shipped dur
ing the hot weather. If you will
visit one OF your egg plants in Des
Moines you can watch the counting
out of a case of eggs and see what
loss the retailer has to take. If your
argument was based on a cool
weather period the discrepancy
would not look so large. / was in a
store yesterday and saw thirteen
and one-half dozen eggs candled,
and only five and one-half dozen
were good. The farmer who brought
them in assisted in the Gambling
and said the eggs were only two or
three days old. He also stated
that he knew eggs would spoil in
few hours and did not see how they
could get them to the city in edible
shape. If you will 90 into the in
vestigation you will find the mer-
chants pay more for eggs and but
ter than they should the year
around. This is not because they
are so generous but on account of
competition. Even if the merchants

Useine School Buildings Out OF
School Hours,


Not many years ago we closed
our schoOlhouse doors at four
o'clock, and allowed them to remain
closed on Saturdays, Sundays, and
during the summer vacation. In
other words, an immense amount of
valuable property belonging to the
people, and needed by the people,
was put to only half of It's possible
use Now we are changing all that;
we have walked up to the fact that
the schools may and should be
common meeting ground, and the
movement for a wider use of the
school plant is spreading over the
country. At present, in more than
one hundred cities of the United
States, school buildings and prop
erts are being systematically used
to further the social life of the
people.
The root of the movement lies
deep down in the growing reali-
cation that those upon whom falls
the heat and burden of the day
have right to more than mere
existence The toilers of the world
have been for centuries creatures of
the blind necessity of economic laws
but IN this era the "laissez-f aire"
policy is dead and buried. We
must give our workers the chance
to live; and not the least of the
needs of this many-sided business
living is that of some legitimate
form of play. The man who feels
no joy in the passing day is only
partially alive. and lowered vitality
means lowered value as a social
factor. The boy who has no chance
to play becomes either dull or
vicious From Our Public Schools
as Social Centers." by Mary Jose
phine Mayer, in the American
Review of Reviews for August.

Senatorial Courtesy Smashed.

Senatorial courtesy" demands
that a new representative in the
upper branch of congress spend two
years, at least, with his mouth clos
ed and his hands folded before dar-
ing to take part in the proceedings
of that august body. The other
day Senator Jim" Reed, of Mis-
souri,, forgot the precedent" and
handed" the senators who are al
ways found voting for their own
special interests "one below the
belt" He reminded them that the
law prohibits the service of an in
terested judge or juror. l have
noticed that those who have wooden
mills are most intensely interested
in the duties on wooden manufac-
lures and those here who are sheep
owners are most active in matters
touching the tax on wool. Judges
may not decide cases in which they
have direct financial interests.
What has created immunity for
men in this body? If a man sits
in a legislative body and accepts
$1,000 for his vote we brand him.
Will you draw the line between
that man and the man who sits
here to vote to put money in his
own pocket?" The "impertinent''
query from the new Missouri sena-
tor was not answered. 1t was a
hard nut to crack," Hannibal

A New Pace in Education.

The Summer Term of the Nor
NAL School at Kirksville broke all
records and set new pace for edu-
cation in the middle west.
Seven hundred and fifty Missouri
teachers enrolled for the term. At
ter eleven weeks of enthusiastic
work and study, more than seven
hundred of them attended the
Chapel Exercises on the closing
day, August 10th. Health was ex-
cellent, Only seven persons had to
quit school on account of sickness
less than one per cent.
The big cool buildings, the gym
nasiums and baths, the campus
seats and bleachers, the lake and
the bridges, the physical exercises,
the Colburn players under the trees,
the Pinafore Ship on the lake, the
Chautauqua Assembly under the
tent. and the daily Assembly for
singing in the New Auditorium, all
contributed to keep students and
faculty in exhilarating good humor
from the beginning to the end of the
term; and all stood the hot weather
without swerving from the we'll set
tied purpose of better self equip
ment for boosting Missouri.
There we're sixty two in the Mar
ried Peoples Club, fifty-six Alum
nj of the Institution, fifty college
graduates, three hundred high school
graduates, ninety-one in the Rural
Sociology Club, one hundred eighty
studying agriculture, two hundred
superintendent and high school
teachers, nearly four hundred rural
school teachers average age of all
twenty-four years.
The Fall Term opening Septem-
Der 18th offers unusual advantages
for teachers of all kinds. 1t is an
especially good time for beginning
for the anxious. earnest, ambitious,
hopeful young people who have
never been off to school" There
will be about three hundred of them
the first day. They will not be
scared or lonesome. The President
and fifty Faculty members will
meet them with hand shakes and
hearty welcomes. Six hundred pro-
grams will be made in one day.
Six hundred students will be dig
