TAFT'S FORTHCOMING MESSAGE

Washington dispatches say that
President Taft's message on the
r]econvening of congress in De-
cember will be devoted to the mat
Ter of the trusts alone.
That this is an important topic
can not be denied, but whether il
is foremost in the interest of the
people may be doubted. That
place has long been and still is
occupied by the question of tariff
reduction.
Trusts haze been arraigned
before the supreme court, found
guilty and ordered to be dissolved
and reorganized. The old order
Of competition has not been res.
tored, neither has the price Of
trust products been lowerd.
The Sherman antitrust law
may. therefore, be properly
deemed to be in need Of aid and
reinfor cement.
But somehow the people can not
be rid of the idea that the high
protective tariff is what has bred
the trusts and nourished them into
their present great stature and
strength.
Il am putting all my eggs into
n basket" said Precedent Taft
in commenting on the fact that
his forthcoming message is to
concern the trust exclusively. The
president, as usual, puts bis eggs
into the wrong basket. II is true
that he will have a message on the
tariff later when his tariff board
reports. bat it is this precious
board that caused his veto of
the lowered tariff bills passed last
spring at the extra session. and
its much-heralded report. when il
is made, will likely be nothing
more than a vast compilation of
figures, leaving the matter Of
tariff policy just where il was
before.
1t may be questioned whether
the presidents setting of eggs will
hatch out anything more than al.
ditional Impotence of the people
at not seeing the tariff lowered

DISTRICT COURT

Court met at 8 o'clock with
Judge Taber on the bench. The
roll Of grand jurors was called
and all answered to their names.
Judge Taber submitted the
gambling cases to the grand jury
and in doing so told its members
that he had received reliable in
formation that some of them had
been approached by parties with
the intent of influencing their
action. He numerically roasted
the men who would attempt to
influence grand jurors and ex-
pressed the fullest confidence in
each and every member of the
jury.
At the conclusion of the Judges
remarks, the jury retired to con-
slider the gambling cases and such
other matters as might come be-
fore them.

FISHERMAN'S LUCK

The lady bather had got into a
hole, and she couldn't swim. Nor
could the young mar on the end OF
the pier; but when she came up
for the first time and he caught
sight of her face he shrieked:
"Helpl"
A burly fisherman sauntered to
his side.
"Wot's up" he hoarseIy cried
my wife! Drowning! / can't
swim! Twenty pounds for you if
you save herr"
In a moment the fisherman was
in the sea. In another moment he
was out of it, with the rescued
lady bather. Swelling with ex.
pectation, he approached the
young man again. well, what
about that twenty quid?" he asked.
But if the young mans face had
been ashen before, it uas now
deadly pale as he gazed upon the
features of the recovering dame.
Yes ! know; he gasped. But
when | made the offer | thought
it was my wife who was drowning,
and now it turns out it was my
wife's mother"
The fisherman pulled a long
face.

The club managers and friends have
swallowed that lost and wiped it out.
Butllh coming season is now at hand.
The club must either get ready to play
immee lately or be disbanded or the
franchise sold
The men who stood the brunt last
year are prepared to spend money this
year to give Winchester good club.
But they win not do it all. The public
must stand part Of the brunt of the
expen,ies or there win be no club.
The men at the head of the affairs
have decided that ifsl, 800 is raised they
will 90 ahead. If this amount cannot
be secured they win quit. They ask nc
one To donate anything They have
prepared 100 season tickets which they
will sell at sl5 apiece. This is the
actual cost of the games
1t Stems pity that the Club should
be put out Of business for 50 small a
sum. The game is of interest to all
1t is an advertisement the city to have
a good team here. 1t affords an honest,
clean sport for young and old. Winches
ter cannot affort to let the Club go. Il
