report of the tariff board to Congress
at the regular session in December
Meantime the Democrats, continuing
to press their revision measures, are
wondering what the President will
do when the wool bill, emerging from
conference with lower duties than the
La Toilette final compromise, goes
to the White House for approval or
veto.
1t is the most remarkable situa-
ton with respect to tariff legislation
that has arisen in a long time. De-
spite the apparently authoritative
declarations that the President will
refuse to approve of the tariff bills,
some of the Democrats, even Speak
er Clark, still express the opinion
that he may yet approve revision Leg
islation. The. Democratic leaders,
encouraged by the effective results
of the combination of their party
with the insurgent Republicans in
the Senate, are becoming more con-
fident that the tariff schedules pass
ed by the House will go through the
Senate in some form.
This is the way the legislative out
look stands to-day:
A compromise measure on the
basis of 80 per cent. ad valorem on
raw wool will be reported probably.
The combined Democratic-Insurge
Republican forces are confident it
will run the gauntlet of both houses
and be the first revision measure to
go to the President to test his dispo-
sition of the veto power.
The farmers free list bill' was
passed on Tuesday in the Senate, un-
der agreement.
The cotton tariff revision bill will
be passed by the House Thursday.
by no means certain, the CO.
aliticn senators are moderately hope
full that the bill will go through the
senate. Some senators are insistent
that hearings should be held ON it
before it is put to vote. The amend
ments relating to sugar, steel, rub
ber, etc., will be offered as riders to
the cotton bill when 1t comes up in
the Senate.

Time to Hear Court Cases. Vic

Caledonia County Court will re-
convene next Monday, Aug. z, at two
o'clock in the afternoon, after re-
cess from last Wednesday to allow
Judge Hall to attend the funeral of
a sister who died in Saxton's River.
Only court cases will be taken up at
this time as the jurymen were dis
charged for the term before the re-
cess.
The jury in the case of Martha

defendant. 1t is expected the case
will be taken to the Supreme Court
on exceptions.
Nelson G. Stevens of Glover has
brought a suit in county court against
Harry L. Munsey for $4,000 dam
ages for the alienation of his wife's
affections. Munsey is the man who
was recently given some rough treat
whose arrest was chronicled in these
columns.
The case is sad one as Mr.. and
Mrs. Stevens had two children and
it is alleged that Munsey became SO

the two children living with him but
Mrs. Stevens has a third child with

No Sawdust in Streams.

The supreme court having sustain
ed the law prohibiting the dumping
of sawdust in streams, it behooves
mill owners to plan accordingly. The
little fishes will laugh, but he who
laughs last and best will be the fish
erman. Sawdust has done more to
deplete our trout streams than all
else Randolph Herald and News.
At last, after the recent decision of
the supreme court, mill owners ought
not to be permitted to ruin any more
streams. Where the trout have al
ready been killed out it might be
difficult to get rid of the mill, but
hereafter let no more mills be estab-
lished on trout streams and the saw
dust and other waste turned into the
streams Bennington Banner.
1t would not be necessary or de-
sirable to tsget rid of the mill The
most of this damage is caused by
small portable mills which are moved
from brook to brook, or to different
points on the same brook as the
timber supply is exhausted, and are
located simply with a view to the
convenient disposal of refuse into
running water. Any spring or pond
would supply water for the boiler.
Without this nuisance streams that
have been depleted would soon re-
stock themselves or could be restock-
ed with artificially hatched trout.
Fishermen who violate the law
should and do generally LAY the
penalty if caught; sawmilI owners
who dump their pestiferous refuse
into our trout-streams should be
equally liable, and not only made to
discontinue the practice, but to pay
the fine provided for the violation of
the law.-G -GDeerfeld Valley Times.

Democrats Hopeful of Getting Real

General tariff legislation at this

tariff revision upon the President, is
the slogan of the Democratic-Pro-

Senate and the Democrats in the
House. The President is credited to-
day with being as determined as ever
to veto any tariff bill passed by Con-

Thirty-Nine State and ia Local Sana.
torla Provided, but These Are
Only a Beginning.

In spite of the fact that state sana-
toria and hospitals for tuberculosis
have been established in 81 states, and
ia municipal or county hospitals in
rs states, vastly more public provision
Is needed to stamp out consumption,
says the National Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis.
Nearly every state east of the Missis-
sippi river has provided a state n
forum, and west of the Mississippi
river, state sanatoria have been es-
tablished in Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri,
Arkansas, Texas, Kansas, Nebraska,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana
and Oregon. There are IS sanatoria
provided by these states. Massachu-
sets having four, Connecticut and
Pennsylvania three and Texas two. In
Guiding special pavilions and aims
houses, there are ia municipal or
county hospitals for the care of tubef-
culosis patients.
Apart from these institutions, how
ever, and a few special. pavilions at
prisons, hospitals for the insane. and
some other public institutions, a grand
total of hardly 200, the institutional
care OF the consumptive is left to priv
vate philanthropy.

pITIFUL SIGHT WITH ECZEMA

"A few days after birth we noticed
an infamed spot on our baby's hip
which soon began spreading until
baby was completely covered even in
his eyes, ears and scalp. For eight
weeks he was bandaged from head to
foot. He could not have a stitch Of
clothing on. Our regular physician
pronounced 1t chronic eczema. He is
q very able physician and ranks with
the best in this locality, nevertheless,
the disease began spreading until
baby was completely covered. He
was losing flesh SO rapidly that we be-
came alarmed and decided to try Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment.
Not until / commenced using Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment could we tell
what he looked like, as we dared not
wash him, and / had been putting M
application after another on him. On
removing the scale from his head the
hair came off, and left him entirely
bald, but since we have been using
Cuticura Soap and Ointment he has
as much hair as ever. Four weeks
after we began to use the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment he was entirely
cured. l don't believe anyone could
have eczema worse than our baby.
Before we used the Cuticura Rem
edies we could hardly look at him, he
was such a pitiful sight, He would
fuss until l would treat him. they
seemed to relieve him SO much. Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment stand by
themselves and the result they quick
ly and surely bring is their own rec
concentration" (Signed) Mrs. T. B.

ment are sold by druggists and deal
