of the wool and free list bills as fol-
lows:
Upon second sober thought the
country will see the wisdom of Presi-
dent Taft's vetoes of the wool bill and
the so-called free list bill. This coun-
try has felt the effects of too much
hasty, half-baked legislation. Every
statesman and every street corner poll
tician has his idea of making Il tariff
law-but scarcely two men agree upon
the subject. AS the Telescope has re-
marked before, 1t is one of the most in
tricate problems that our congress has
to deal with Like a tax measure, there
never will be a perfect tariff laW-and
it is problematical if a tariff law will
ever please a majority of the people. And
yet the majority of the American leo
pie are ready to admit that the pros
perity of this country has been butt up
under the protective tariff system and
to abandon protection would be disas-
trous to the country. But just how
much duty to put upon this item and
just how low to fix the duty on that
item-'Aye, there's the rub
with these things in view he Two
great political parties of the country
agreed that the tariff question should
be taken out of politics and that tariff
legislation should hereafter be consid-
cred from broad, scientific stand
point. So a tariff board was created,
with the consent of both political par
ties. and with the popular approval Ct
the people of the country.
THE duty of this tariff board vas
to ascertain all the facts in the case.
relative to tariff matters, and .tfter
careful and mature investigation il was
to lay before congress its findings, a
report which would be based upon ex-
act information and official records
After congress had been given the
benefit of the official findings Of the
tariff board which is nonpartisan, and
the high standing of which is lecog-
nized from one end of the country to
the other, then it was expected to set
about framing a tariff law.
THAT is what the tariff board was
appointed for and. the president has
been unwilling to tolerate tariff tegisla
ton by guess and has been unwilling
to approve tariff bills introduced by
political parties for the purpose of
playing politics of the securing of po-
litics.I advantage. The country has
seen enough of this sort of tariff 1egis-
lation-this hastily prepared, sly di-
gested. half baked. sectional tariff
legislation. What the country wants
now is tariff based upon accurate,
scientific tariff revision, and not :lie
kind that is based upon partisan malice

JONES' WIFE WINS.
Wealthy Negro Must Give Her Prop
erty Worth $4,000.

By the terms of a decision rendered
Thursday afternoon by Judge G. P.
Altman, of the Thirteenth district
Theodore w. Jones must transfer to his
Vile Topeka property valued at SIS, 600
The case was heard in EIDorado, where
Jones recently claimed his residence
and brought suit for separation.
1t is probable that the Altman de-
cislon is the conclusion of the Jones
domestic affairs. Since the wealthy Chi
cago negro moved to Topeka several
years ago his family troubles have
kept the courts busy. 1t was last win
ter when Jones concluded that he would
leave Topeka. He left his wiley in
Topeka and went to ElDorado, where
he bought livery barn. Then Jones
thought of a brilliant scheme.
Two days after arriving in Butler
county, he employed Chris Aikman-
brother of the district judge-to bring
suit for divorce. But Judge Altman
refused to recognize service in the case
and Jones started all over again. While
ond petition. Mrs. Jones counsel in
Topeka was constructing an application
for divorce that would fairly curl the
wealthy negro's hair. But this time
Judge Altman took jurisdiction.
Today Jones is free. He is also short
$4,000 in property rights. Perhaps
Jones is satisfied. But his joy does
not exceed that of his divorced wife.
She IS now assured ample support and
a fair slice of the valuable estate-and
Jones may go his way. Mrs. Jones
live in one of his houses. BY the order
of the court, the wife must vacate the
Tyler street home. which becomes the

Paderewsk paid q record price of $500
for a rooster and three bends to Ernest
Kellerstrass, a Kansas City breeder. They
were blue blooded White Orpingtons. The
hens were christened Lady Helen, Vic
toria and Crystalline, but the rooster was
unnamed at the time of his expectation.
There was some delay in the shipment,
caused by difficulty in Nine Paderewski's
finding what she considered adequate in
surance, but finally she obtained a policy
for $500. The four fowls were boxed in
an ordinary crate and sent away on
March II, 1908. to Switzerland, where they
arrived safely. Nine. Paderewski and her
husband followed two months later,
