The average charge per day
for collections is about $4,000.
It amounts to about $4,000, 600

Bet on TAFT for Nominee.

New 1ork-Light betting is
being done in this city on the
outcome of the Chicago con.
vention, but what there is hae
favored Mr.. Taft. The odds on
his nomination are 8 to 1. In
Wall street it was reported that
third term money at 1 to 3 was
ready to be put up, but it was
hard work finding any.
Democrats are betting even
money that the next president
will be a Democrat and bets
have been made at 1 to 8 that
the Democratic nominee will
be William Jenning Bryan or
Mayor Gaynor.
1.-THE odds change every min.

the betting expert. II have
made one bet today of $500 to
$500 against the third term
candidate, and that appears to
represent about the general
sentiment today. I think the
odds will be longer next week.

Coal Barons Greedy.

Preparations are being made
to add SIS, 100000 to the nations
coal bill this winter. Each one
of US must contribute our pro
rata to the fortunes of the coal
barons. There is no reason or
justice for the extent of the in.
crease, except that the million
aire coal kings want the money
and are in position to make
the people either "come across
or freeze.
The coal operators. who have
been forced to grant the miners
an increase in wages, which
they say will mean an addition.
al cost of 100000 in labor, are
going to force the consumer to
pay a sufficiently high price
for coal to enable them to stand
this increase, along with an ad.
ditlonal extortion of 100000,
which will be clear profit to the
trust. Thus for every dollar in
increased prices that the coal
operators propose to collect
this winter for the miners, they
have decided to extort two dol.
lars for themselves. All ne
helpless consumers have to dc
is to pay the bill. Always
always, it's the consumer who
pays?

A few words about the jail
building. When the sheriff
moved into the new county jail
and sheriff's residence, he cal
led me over to see about some
work, aud to see how the resi-.
dence part looked. found the
heating plant a failure, the tax
payers paid for about twenty
ton more coal than had been
necessary, had the work been
done right. The plumbing was
in an unsanitary condition and
the wood work was a poor job,
only Que coat of varnish and.
none on the edges. The doors
were 80 loose they would not
lock The floor was uneven
settled out of shape. 1t took
$4,000 to straighten out these
minor items. It is about time
the tax payers would stop this
matter, and put some one in
charge of this new building
that is we'll versed in this kind
of construction. The architects
may be all right, but if the
specifications allo " concrete
made of sand and old stone
with lime around them, thrown
in as filler, they don't know
their business. This matter
should be investigated before
it is too late.

WashInpton L ttsr.

WashIngton letter.
Why 10 the Republican party
beset by its present difficulties.
This question can be answered
with one word-tariff.
The tariff was originally en-
ployed to meet the expense of
the civil war. To raise money
for this emergency the govern.
ment decided to tax every arti-
Gle of manufacture. The Amer.
lean manufacturers complained
of this, and justly. They said
the taxes we're 90 heavy as to
be ruinous, because they could
not compete with imported
articles which did not have to
carry this tax. So a plan was
devised to protect the Ameri-
can manufacturers.
I'VE will place a tariff on all
imported articles" said the gov
eminent, (Which will put you
on an even or better.than. even
footing with your foreign com.
petitors."
Everyone understood this
protective system was to be
but temporary, to meet an un-
usual condition, and that the
tariff on imports would be
abolished when it. became no
longer necessary to require the
American manufacturers to
pay a tax on their manufac-
lures.
But in the meantime the
privileQ ed few had. discovered
that in the tariff lay means
by which they could build up
enormous fortunes. These
fortunes were pointed as an
evidence that the tariff was a
good thing. The protectionists
fooled the people by making
them believe that these for.
tunes had come from the
foreigners, when the fact was
that the fortunes had been
wrunx from the common PEG.
pie who had been forced to pay
artificially high prices for the
things necessary to life.
The protectiouists knew IN
their hearts of this deception,
and then and there did humbua
and fraud become part and par.
eel of politics. But the people
have learned at last that tariff
for protection, that d tariff for
any other purpose than to raise
sufficient revenue to meet the
expense of the government, has
no excuse in logic or economic.
It needs no argument to con-
vince the average man now
that to reduce taxation 10 to
reduce prices.
From the first, the manufac.
turers have never been satisfied
with q reasonable amount of
protection, but they keep on
demanding more and more.
The result 10 that the Ameri-
4 can consumers are today pay.

American Commissioner to
Olympic Games Grateful
for Taft'S Praise.

NEW YORK, August johannes e.
Sullivan, American commissioner to the
Olympic games, and six New York ath-
letes who were participants arrived
home today on the White Star liner
Celtic.
Mr.. Sullivan was enthusiastic at the
showing America had made. and said he
was particularly grateful for the praise
received from President Taft.
1.-The Swedish nation deserves a lot of
credit for the way the games were ham
died. said Mr.. Sullivan. I'VE had very
few faults to find. One thing which
believe will be changed before another
Olympiad comes around is the man.
agement of the games. I mean to
say that I think future world meets will
be arranged by an international commit
tee representing all the nations involved
instead of a committee appointed by the
country in which the meet is held.
This will be much fairer for all con-
cerned. because the different methods OF
running off the events in various coun-
tries will be considered and the games
arranged accordingly. / think, also, that
our method of scoring. that is. five, three
and one, will take the place of the meth
cd used on the other side, which is three.
two and one. This will be much fairer
to the competitors"

SEARCHING FOR TRAMP.
Police on Lookout for Man Who Ac.
costed Small Girl.

Edith Haney, eleven years old. was ac-
costed by a tramp this morning while on
her way from her home on 18th and M
streets northeast to Mrs. Kluh's store. at
1166 Bladensburg road northeast. The
child was only about one square from her
home, she said, when the man came from
behind a clump of bushes.
Becoming alarmed, the child screamed
and ran home. The man called to her
to come back and then hurled several
stones at her. He started toward her.
but she managed to reach home
Mrs. Mary Haney, the child's mother,
told the police and the officers of the
ninth precinct are making investiga-
ton.
The police were told that the supposed
tramp wore a dirty, ragged suit of clothes
and q cap, the visor Of the cap being
drawn so far down over his face that the
little girl he accosted was unable to tell
his color
Capt Daley sent out a number of po-
licemen to search for the tramp, but they
failed to find him.

INDICATES SENTIMENT.
Vote in the Senate Favorable to Vo-
cational Education.

That the Senate is strongly inclined
to favor the Page vocational education
bill wasindicated today soon after the
Senate met. Senator Page moved to
call up the bill, which would give
federal aid to agricultural, manual
training and other vocational schools
The vote in favor of taking up the
measure stood 33 to Is, disclosing the
lack of a quorum. call for quorum
showed fifty-three senators present, the
necessary number.
But the second vote on the Page mo-
ton again showed thirtythree in favor
and thirteen opposed. It was evident
that senators were purposely absenting
themselves from the chamber to break
the quorum.
Senator Bailey made the point of no
quorum, and Senator Bristow moved to
adjourn. But Senator Page, seeing the
situation, withdrew his motion, and the
Senate proceeded with other business.
