COMMITS SUICIDE
BECAUSE or HEAL III
ID. E. Garrison J1:, ST. Louis.
4
Shot Himself.
(NatioAal News Associationl

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-Daniels q.
Garrison, Jr., millionaire vice presi-
dent of Corrugated Bar company of
st. Louis, committed suicide at the
Hotel Waldorf Astoria some time dur
ing the night. The report was not
heard by his son and father who oc-
cupied adjoining rooms.
Mr.. Garrison, who is reputed to be
millionaire, was engaged to be mar
ried in October to Miss Mary Williams
of New York. His first wife died two
years ago in ST. Louis.
Garrison had apparently carefully
planned his suicide, for he left note
on the table in his room before firing
the revolver that ended his life un.
derneath pillow SO that the sound
might be deadened The note said:
Don't blame me for doing this. You
know ! have had kidney trouble and
asthma. What is more l am troubled
with that terrible disease called hay
fever
Webb Samuels, Jr. a brother of Gar.
rison's first wife, killed himself in
Garrison's home in st. Louis while
visiting him year ago today. The
Garrisons are among st. Louis most
prominent citizens socially and com
mercially.
Propped up on his trunk, where he
might have a last look at it before he
shot himself, the picture of Mr.. Gar
rison's fiancee, Miss Williams wai
found. She is on her way here from
Europe. In a letter that he left fol
Miss Williams he stated that he fear
ed their marriage would be unhapp,
because of his i'll health. In his
pocket was a letter from her advising
him to be more cheerful and no1
worry over his illness.

But Police Commissioners
Decide to Separate Each
Officer from Pay Roll for
Fourteen Days.
POLICE DEPARTMENT
OVERDREW ACCOUNT
And to Get Within Its Appro-
priation Again 1t Was Nee
essary to Do This or Dis
charge Officer.

At the regular session of the board
of metropolitan police commissioners
last evening it was decided that no pa
trolman should be discharged from
the force but that each patrolman
should be given two-weeks' lay off
without pay, this being done to cur
tail expenses. This will not effect
the regular vacation which each men,
ber of the force is entitled to. Recent
ly Mayor Zimmerman declared in a
council meeting that a man would be
discharged from the force as the de-
partment had overdrawn it's appropria-
ton by $500 for the first six months
Of this year. In order that the de-
partment will not overdraw the ap-
preparation for the last six months of
the year the board decided on this
course.
Police Superintendent Gormon de-
clared that this was no fault of the
police department, but was due to the
fact that the appropriation was not
made large enough when the budget
for this year was made. He said that
the next budget will be made large
enough for the payment of all salar-
les of the force. The board of COM
missioners argued that it would not
work a big hardship on any patrolman
II all were given lay off, and that it
would be preferable to discharging
one officer.
Mr.. Gormon asserted it was merely
a business proposition which must be
viewed from financial standpoint.
He declared that two men would @hes
Sin Shl stMB WA Eeeks lay.off next
Monday and from that time on two
men would take the vacation. BY this
method it will be about four months
before all of the patrolmen are re-em-
ployed and the amount overdrawn
will have been made up.

STRIKE MEDIATOR
NOT TO INTERFERE
u. S. Will Not Offer to Arbi-
trate Mechanics Strike
on Hartman Lines.
(National News Assoc,ation)

WASHINGTON, Sept, 2-Charles
G. Neill, one of the government smedi.
ators in government strike matters,
stated today that the government
would have no right to proffer arbi-
tration to either the mechanical work
ers on the Hartman lines or to the
railroads themselves. Under the Erd-
man act, Mr.. Neill said arbitration is
provided for only in case of dispute
affecting the actual operators and the
railroads, but not when the mechani-
cal workers are involved. Should the
strike spread to the engineers, con-
ductors and other operatives, Mr.. Neill
stated 1t would then be a matter for
Judge Knapp of the Commerce court
and himself to consider.
STRIKE ANTICIPATED.
CHICAGO, Sept. 2.-Announcement
that strike of mechanical workers
on the Hartman railroads and two
other systems, had been called, was
expected in the near future as a re.
suit of the final refusal of Julius
kruttschnitt, vice president of the I'm
ion Pacific, to recognize the new Fed.
GRAFTON of Mechanical Trades in any
way.
Kruttschnitt's stand was taken after
conference in San Francisco, with
five international presidents of the un.
ions. krutschnitt's statement was in
accord with statement made in Chi.
cago before he went west, to the eff.
feet that the roads would not recog.
nize the union. Officials of the Illi
nois Central and the Chicago & North.
western also have refused to have any.
thing to do with the new federation
and negotiations have been tempora.
rily broken off.
In event strike is called, some 60,
600 will be called out and every rail
road in the west will suffer- Shops
up completely. The strike it was es
timated, would cost $90,O00.000.
Meanwhile. union officials in Chica

ment, and placed it on a par with
the Army and Navy.
1t was our organization that brought
about the Interstate Commerce
Commission, and to it also are we in.
debted for the Pure Food Laws as first
enacted. We might go on and on for
an indefinite period in enumerating
the things that we have accomplished
through the Grange, but one of the
latest and the one that comes nearest
to our homes is the fact that it was
largely through the effort of the
Grange that our mothers and sisters.
our wives and sweethearts were given
the privilege to partake in the govern
ment that is as much for them as for
the male portion of society. Now let
it be thro ugh the Grange that our
Sisters in the Grange be educated to
use that right, with wisdom. and may
they learn the lesson SO we'll that they
will cast their ballot only for the
right, dIsregarding the pleas Of the
politician who would use them as a
tool to win his desires, so that he may
reap a harvest from our efforts, but
vote for the betterment of conditions,
both morally and financially.

Sunnyside, $50, Grange was also re-
organized but the report has not yet
reached this office.
There are a number Of Oranges that
are in need of reorganization and we
are anxious to have them assisted by
anyone who has the ability.
During the coming year we hope to
re-organize large part of the CIR Anses
that have become dormant or dead in
the past, and by the end OF the COM
ing year have our numbers filled with
live, active Oranges.
Ii any of our readres know of a
place where good live Grange might
be organized they will confer a great
benefit on the Order ii they will Ell, r
us to them, giving the name of two or
three leading men in the communi y
to whom we can write. II Is Itfeis
to any place where a Grange Las e. n
or a new locality, either. Who will
be the first to report such place?
There is IA great need of such an
organization as the Grange in nearly
every farming community, as there is
as much need of the farmer trganiz-
ing as there is for any of the other
callings, if he would only awaken to
the fact. We may not gain what we
are wanting in month, or even a
year, but steady and persevering
effort will finally tell, and it is
through the combined effort of those
desiring anything that it is secured.
The Grange has accomplished much
in tie past and will accomplish much
in the future if its members will only
make it vehicle for their demands,
and then push the vehicle forward to
final and complete victory. Ii you
will look over the history of Grange
endeavor you will see that many of
the greatest advantages that we possess
are the work Of the Grange. 1t is to
that organization that we owe the rural
mail delivery, which is of such great
benefit to the farmers of the country,
and ii is the Grange that we have to
thank for the many experiment stat
ions that are assisting the farmer in
solving so many of the problems of
the day. The Grange is answerable

GOVERTSIG RATES FURNISHED on APPLICATION
Flaws in the Piecemeal
Plan.

The interview with Mr.. Rich |
ard Campion, of Philadelphia,
which appears in the Washing
ton correspondence of the New
York Herald of December q, is
an important contribution of fact, |
light, practical knowledge, and
sound common sense on the sub
ject of piecemeal tariff revision.
1t seems unaccountable that the
project of revising the tariff one
schedule at a time should have
gained so much support. The
approval of numerous newspaper
writers throughout the country
is not so hard to understand.
These gentlemen, as a rule, are
far more conspicuous for what
they do not know about the tar
iff in it's various angles and COM
plexities than for any deep or
practical knowledge which they
have of that subject. Ignorance
as to schedules and rates of du-
ty ard their bearing upon pro-
duction and distribution to con-
sumers is to be expected in news
paper Offices; although it would
not be asking too much for the av-
erage critic of the tariff to show
some degree Of intelligent under
standing of the simple fact that
when an article of merchandise
produced abroad can be landed
in our market and sold at a pro-
fit below what it costs to produce
the same article of merchandise
in an American workshop or fac
tory, the conclusion ought to be
natural and necessary as to the
importance of so adjusting tariff
duties as to give American labor
and production the right of way
in the American market. But
even that plain and simple prop
osition is not always understood,
The average writer on the tariff
concerns himself far more with
the question of a tariff that may
possibly be in his judgment a
shade too high than with a tariff
which. may be a shade too low.
His mind seems incapable of
judging the practical operation
of a tariff that permits so large
importation of competitive arti~
cles which displace home labor
and home production. One would
think that a glance at the i'm
portant statistics might prove
instructive along this line. Ger
tainly the fact of the large i'm
ports of dutiable and competi-
tive commodities is the plainest
possible proof that the present
tariff is not too high,
But in discussing and advocat-
ing with Jealous approval the
scheme of piecemeal revision of
the tariff the newspapers exhibit
a remarkable lack of perception
of cause and effect. The same
may be said of the senators and
representatives in Congress who
have taken a stand in favor of
piecemeal revision. It does not
