SOME TARIFF ACTION TO-DAY.

or Report a Disagreement.

WAsHINGToN. Aug. 9-lt is expected
there will he n rift in the tariff clouds

La Toilette and Representative Under
wood will hold formal conference
tomorrow 1t is expected that each
will be prepared to submit a proposal
on the farmers free list bill. II an
agreement cannot he reached the con-
ferees will probably report a disagree
ment 10 both houses before the close
of the day. Representative Underwood
told member of the House leaders
to-day that he will make some sor, of a
report before the House adjourns to-
morrow.
1t was learned to-day that Senator
La Toilette has already submitted a
proposal to Mr.. Underwood to agree
on a bill based on 30 per cent. duty on
raw wool. with a corresponding reduc-
ton averaging per cent. on the manu-
features of wool from the rates as they
appear in the Senate bill. Representative q
Underwood is insisting on a much lower
rate of duty.
Senator La Toilette will probably be
NuillH W atScPt ieulNtiois pdstu Oh 20
per cent on raw wool if he can find suf-
ficient Democratic and insurgent support
to pass it through the Senate. But his
conferences with the insurgents have
con vinced him they are not prepared TO
go below 80 per cent. Senator La Toilette
may urge his colleagues on the Senate
conference committee TO Join him in
recommending a bill drawn on ~ per
cent. and take the sense of the Senate
and if that should fail then renew the
conferences with view of agreeing on
bill drawn on a 30 per cent. basis
While Representative Underwood is
cont ending for a bill based on - per cent
Oh raw wool and is apparently unwilling
to go higher. some of III" House leaders
believe that the Democrats of the House
would no willing to vote even for 30 per
cent. rather than see the bill fail entirely
Tomorrow will probably develop some
thing that will indicate the fate Of the
tariff legislation.

ready indicated that he will want to sub
init to the House for its approval or dis
approval the Kern amendment to the
farmers bill limiting free trade in beef
and flour to those countries with which
the United States has reciprocal trade
agreements under which United States
farm products are admitted free of duty
This would limit the free trade in beef

FEW FAIL TO PAY
WATERW0RKS TAX

Collector J. S. johnson stated today
that out of a total of $9,001.49 assess
ed waterworks tax for 1911, he had al
ready collected $S,774.66, leaving a
balance of only about 1925 uncollect-
ed. Of this amount Mr.. johnson states
the greater portion is owed py
churches of the city, and he requests
that the officers of the churches who
have not already done so, will arrange
to pay the assessments against their
property at once, as he desires to
make his final settlement with the
hoard. 1t is remarkable in view of
the fact that there was considerable
opposition to the assessment at the
time it was made, that no one has re
fused to pay the tax, and the small
amount due is on account of neglect of
the persons to look after it rather
than a refusal to pay it.
Collector Johnson yesterday turned
over to Treasurer r. H. Weems of the
district $8,59917, representing the
amount collected up to date, minus the
collectors commission.

Parents who desire to enter pupils for

ANOTHER SOAP
POWDER CASE

Another suit in which the "Snow-
flake" washing powder territory rights
are involved, has been filed in the
Faulkner circuit court, 7. J. Middle
ton seeking to recover from J. d. Dir
fee, the owner of the patent, $500 al
legged to have been paid him for Ger
tain territory. The complainant a.
leges that in November, 1909. the dc
fendant represented to him that he
was the owner of a patent right for a
washing powder compound and sold
him this right in the state of Kan
sas and in jackson county, Missouri,
for consideration of $500. The
plaintiff states that Diffee also guar
anteed that he would establish fac
tory for the production of the con-
pound and assured him he would not
be required to pay license to sell it.
Middleton charges in his complaint
that all of the defendants representa-
tlons were fraudulent; that he owned
no patent on the formula for making
the washing powder and had no ex-
elusive right to its manufacture and
sale, that he had failed to establish a
factory as he had guaranteed, and
that the territory sold to the plaintiff
is worthless for the reason that he
would be required to pay license in
order to sell the product The plain
tiff asks judgment for 500 and costs.
Diffee is asid to have sold at good
prices large amount of territory fol
his washing powder, and other suits
have been recently brought against
him growing out of these transactions

While our prices are absolutely
right on any Piano in our line, the
Jansen is the Cream of Perfection.
We were just about persuaded to
take on this Piano because we beley-
ed it to be just what we are claiming
for it, when the best posted piano man
in our town asked us why we didn't
get the .lanssen, stating that he had
sold and tried most all of them in this
part of teh county and that he unhes-
/ itatingly classed it above them all for
money. Since getting a sample and
examining from top to bottom, inside
and out, we are glad to say that it
meets our every expectation.
We want our friends, whether in
the market or not, to come in and sec
this piano and let us show it to you

man preferred to above is our towns
