COMMISSION GOVERNMENT
Mobile Votes This Form In
By Big Majority

Mobile, Ala, June 6.-By a major
ity of 829 out of total vote of 3,6l2
the City of Mobile adopted the com
mossion form of government. The
campaign which has been carried on
for the past three weeks, has been
one of the most warmly contested OF
any in the history of the city, and to-
wards the last aroused much bitter
ness.
It was a sharply drawn contest be-
tween the political machine which has
ruled the city for years and the bus
mess, professional and working men
of the city, and a feature was the
direct interest taken by the mos'
prominent men, many of whom acted
as watchers at the polling places.
With two exceptions every ward
gave a substantial majority in favor
of the commission form of government

HOW TO AVOID COLDS.

There is one simple way of avoiding
c~olds-keep your mouth shut while out
of doors. The mar or woman who
comes VI of an overheated room,
especially late at night, and breathe
through his mouth, will either catch a
bad cold or irritate the lungs sufficient
ly to cause annoyance and unpleasant
ness. If people would just keep their
mouths shut and breathe through their
noses, this difficulty and danger would
be avoided. Chills are often the result
of people talking freely while out-ot-
doors just after leaving a room full of
hot air, and theatre-goers who discuss
and laugh over the play on their way
home are inviting illness.

rHAr RECrpRocrrY PLAN.

It's a rather anomalous condition of
affairs that the great agricultural
states of the nation, the hot-beds of
the insurgency movement In the Re
publican party, should be making the
1oudest protests against the adoption
of the bill that provides for reciprocity
with Canada. 1t will be remembered
that during the making of the present
tariff law most of the Republican in
surgents in congress denounced the
Payne act in unm easured terms be-
cause it did not keep faith with the
promises in the Republican national
platform by making more material re-
auctions in the various tariff schedules,
and particularly those which might af-
feet the high cost of living. Presum-
ably these insurgents represented the
sentiment Of their folk at home. Yet,
when move is made for reciprocity
tendency to reduce the cost of living,
these same folk are marching with the
opposition.
But perhaps the fears Of some of the
farmers, who are protesting against
this reciprocity, are inclined to be ex-
aggerated. Maybe the danger of IN
jury to their business is not as great
as they imagine If the reciprocity plan
prevails and farm products are admit
ted to this country free of duty from
Canada. There is not much of sur
plus nowadays in Canada About all of
the products of the farms in that
country are needed at home, with the
possible exception Of wheat, and 1t IS
not likely that any increased produce
ton in Canada will much more than
keer, mace with fast-increasing popu-
lation of that country. Then, too
when it comes to the matter of pro-
ducing things, the farmers or the
United States ought to be able to COM
pete successfully on an even footing
with the farmers of Canada, or the
farmers of any other section OF the
world.
It is President Taft's idea, and 1t
certainly appears to be well-founded'
that the proposed reciprocity with
Canada will work out with the great
est good for the greatest number. In
opening the Canadian door to several
classes of goods and implements man
ufactured in the United States, many
of the manufacturing industries of this
country ought to receive a much neeo-
stimulation. They have been at low
ebb for some time now.
Among all tariff making theories
that which concerns anything in the
nature of an equitable plan for re-
ciprocity between two countries has
the most to recommend it. And now
that President Taft has worked out
one such plan with Canada, it is surely
worthy of being given a trial. If II
does not work out satisfactorily there
will be no trouble about abrogating 1t.
