SHOWS A BIG INCREASE.
The Fertilizer Tag Tax Was Quite
Heavy for Last Year.

Figures announced from the State
treasures office show that the fer
tilizer tax for the past year is $780,
OS2, as compared with $240,09s for
the year before. The increase is
about $4,000. The amount to be
received from the tax was expected
to reach s27O,0OO. The decrease was
caused by the low price of cotton.
The fertilizer tax fund goes for the
support of Clemson College and the
public work of the institution.

MONTANA, TODAY.

In Helena, today. will be held the
mass convention of progressivea, as
sembled for the purpose Of selecting
delegates to the Chicago national con-
vention and to prepare for a state or
ganization of the movement. The call
for the convention has been before the
state for fortnight. responses have
come from practically every county In
the state. Each county In the state
Is entitled to ten votes In the conven-
ton; this will make the convention

there Will be more than that present,

proval upon the nomination methods
which placed Taft upon the ticket this
year The worst thing about Taft is
that he has become the open cham
pion OF this plan. The election OF
Taft would mean that the people In
tend to turn over the selection Of a
presidential candidate to an ire
sponsible body Of fifty three men.
Every man who advocates the elec-
tion of Taft, every newspaper which
supports his candidacy, is work ing to
take the election OF the president
away from the people and to place It
In the hands of committee OF pro-
fessional politicians.

The Economics of Fashion
II.-Men's Ready-Made Clothes


Each season adds to the number of
men who are discovering for them
selves the economy of time and trou-
Bile to be found In the purchase of
ready made clothing. The present
styles of close fitting, padless clothes
seem to be made to fit the average
man exceptionally well. and he enjoys
the advantage of knowing how his suit
liz going to look when finished which
to him Is quite as important AZ IL such
know edge to "A woman regarding her
clothes. While the conservative man
always will prefer to have his clothes
made to order. the tailors this season
are complaining loudly regarding the
competition OF the ready made suit. As
a matter of fact the tailors are doing
well--tor their customers are wearing
a greater number OF suits than ever
before.

tion upon the skill of the tailors that

AN oliGARcHY7

The Chicago Tribune calls attention
II the rules adopted by the national
committee after the republican con-
vention had nominated Taft and ad-
jonrned, these rules being the ones
which will govern the convention
In 1916. The Chicago newspaper
expresses the opinion that the
adoption of these rules was the
worst act OF the convention, In that
It contains greater menace TO the
institutions of the country than even
the theft of the delegates and the cre-
alton of the possibility that sunny
Jim" Sherman might become presi-
dent. Properly to understand the po-
sition which the Chicago Tribune
takes, II IL necessary to read the
rules. They are interesting as show
ing the length to which Boss Barnes
was willing to go In his endeavor to
perpetuate machine rule. Here they
are:
There shall be republican ma
tional committee consisting of one
member from each state, one
member each from the territory
of Hawaii and the District of CO.
lumbia, and one member from
each of the territorial possessions.
to wit: The Philippine islands,
Porto Rico, and Alaska.
The national republican COM
mtttee shall, however. have power
to declare vacant the seat OF any
member who refuses to support
the nominees of the convention
which elected such national re-
publican committee and fiji such
vacancies.
The republican national COM
mittee shall issue the call for the
meeting of the national conven-
tion sixty days. at least, before
the time fixed for said meeting,
and delegates to the national con-
vention shall be chosen In such
manner as the national committee
shall provide.
by these rules. the machine bosses
demand that ffty-three men no
recognized by or responsible to an,
law, many of them from states ant
territories where there Is II, repub,
lican party. many cf them ,iie avowet
representatives of criminal corpora
tions. many of them notoriously cor,
rnpt political bosses, may expel man,
men Of conscience from among theil
number, may call another nationa
convention and may provide for thu
election of delegates in manner con
trary to law. The rules go ever
farther than this; they make II posi-
BILE to repeat the California outrage
when delegates. honestly elected by tn
people Of great state were unseatet
by the action of committee ant

ON THE SPUR OF
THE MOMENT
Always Be Polite.
By Row K. MeuIsen

Every once in a while something
occurs which leads the wandering
mind of mortal man back TO the
everlasting truth that 1t pays to be
polite. You may not think 1t pays.
at the time, but man gets what he
gives out In this world and the law
of compensation is seldom violated.
Just the other day a citizen OF New
York found this out. He once handed
n man u glass of water In a hospital
when the latter needed the water
badly. and when the man died ne
left the New York citizen $1,146,S26.
With this case In mind one should
follow the appended set of general
rules.
When fleshy old gentleman steps
upon your corn while climbing into
his seat at the theater and then
stands on 1t for a minute or two while
nodding to an acquaintance In the
rear of the house, do not call him an
antiquated bonehead, or an ivory
beaned old galoot. but smile upon HIM
gracionsly and offer him the other
foot to step on. Make a few pleas
ant remarks about the weather and
ask after the state OF health Of his
family. Then go out and buy him q
bouquet of yiolets and present II to
him.
II an old lady with square spec
tacles who looks rs though she might
have money. sticks an umbrella
point In your eye. lift your hat politely
and ask her II she won't have an Ice
cream soda.
II a gentleman in the train piles
his baggage In your seat while you
are In the smoker. give him q good
cigar and sit on the floor.
II a man runs you down with an
automobile and breaks all OF your
ribs and one OF the lamps on his car,
send him new lamp and q bouquet
OF American beauties as soon as you
are out of the hospital.
There are thousands OF occasions of
this kind OF which you may take ad-
vantage and which may pan out well.
You never can tell just who Is going
to die and leave money or Just whom
they are going to leave 1t to-.

HILLES TO THE RESCUE

AAlLAkO ~ NEONOE
Hes erstwhe secretary to President Taft and the
goat of the Taft campaign finds that he must personally
undertake the hopeless task Of defending the theft Of the
nomination at Chicago As chairman Of the Taft national
committee Mr. Hlles gave u.s. yesterday morning his pre-
Iminary argument in the case It weak and evasve it
carries weight Of convincing proof Contrasted with
the Roosevelt presentation Of the in the weekago issue
of The Outlook, the Hilles opening is puerle
Mr. Iafts personal answer is carefully worded; it
an unbiased opinion Rather it is labored defense Of
hopeless The Taft argument is based upon the as
sumption that the rule Of committee Of politicians is more
be regarded than the vote Of the people Of great state
like California Admitting that he agreed to abide by the
bound BY that promise His defense will not stand fire
The Taft defense is without foot to stand in this
ter Of the theft of delegates This realized by many Of
the Taft supporters There be truth in the re-
port from Washington that Senator Root declined to take
the defense Of the action Of the Chicago credentials

Those Suffering From
Rheumatism Are Given
Instant Relief by Using
"TRY-NEW-LIFE."

Rheumatism racks many poor
man S frame, despite all that the
best meaning doctors in the world
can do with their drugs and their
liniments. So often they are told
that there really is no cure for
rheumatism-all that anyone can
do is just to endure it until 1t
goes away And going is some
times delayed.
Never day passes that a num-
Der Of such sufferers come into
the store at IS West First South
street and ask what can be done
with their case. And, as soon as
an operator has leisure, the quiet
hum. scarcely audible, of the
"Try- New-Life" machine is
heard. and warmth and life and
health come back TO the aching
muscles, and the pain quickly
dies away. 1t is an occurrence Of
every day-yet every hour.
One OF the many successful
cases is that Of A. H. Davenport,
who has been sufferer from
