A Live Suggestion.

Why would it not be a good
idea for all Democrats, every
where, to hereafter taboo the use
of the word tariff" and in its
place use the term "tax," which
is what a tariff really is?
If every Democratic writer
and speaker would use the term
"The Payne-Aldrich tax bill"
instead of "The Payne-Aldrich
tariff BILL" from now until the
polls close on November 5, there
need be little conjecture as to
the outcome of the election.
Who doubts but that if the
Dingley tariff bill had been
known and referred to generally
as the Dingley tax bill, and the
Mckinley tariff bill as the Me
Kinley tax bill, and the Payne
Aldrich tariff bill as the Payne
Aldrich tax bill, the Republican
party would not be in power to-
day.
The word tariff is too in
definite. There are hundreds
of thousands of men who may be
brought to believe that it would
be to their advantage in some
indirect, mysterious way to vote
for a tariff, but who could not
be ca.joled or coerced into the
conviction that it is to then

HE COULD oUTRUN HORSE
Kruger, Late 5oer President, When a
Young Man Was Considerably
Swift Of Foot.

Massive oval chin, large fiat ear
and strong nose were notable in Kru-
ger. His head, however, was small
in proportion-neither deep nor
high. His shoulders were rather
high, his chest broad and deep; he
stood full six feet and had long legs
which helped to make us believe the
marvels told of his running powers.
For instance, here is the story |
have from an eye witness, just as he
told it: at is also a fact that the
president could run as fast as a
horse. | remember once that he had
a dispute with his friend Jacobs, ow-
ing to the president stating that he
could run as fast as a horse. The
result was that the president ran
against a horse, with a rider on it
for a length Of seven or eight hun
dred yards and actually outran the
horse" This would seem incredible
had | not heard it confirmed by Kru-
ger himself, who was most reluctant
to speak of his own doings. He must
have been about eighteen years old
at that time.-Poultney Bigelow

THOUGHT IT PART OF LESSON
%Frenchman Learning Of Glories of
George Washington Punctuates
With Dancing steps.

NJ, de PEspigarie Tessap, a cousin
of the Count de Chambrun and con-
tributor to several French newspa-
pers, arrived in New York on the
French liner La Touraine for a visit
of n year to this country. During
the voyage he met Hugh A. Bayne,
a law partner of Henry W. Taft, and
several other Americans, with whom
he became friendly. The young man
explained that as he would be here
for a year he wanted some coaching
on how to act among Americans.
He was told by his travelling COM
panions that Americans were eXcep-
%tionally keen on paying homage to
the memory of George Washington
and that a knowledge of the first
president would help him greatly.
One Of the party, with a suppressed
smile, repeated several times to the
journalist: George Washington
first in war, first in peace and first
in the hearts of his co~untrymen."
Mr.. Tessan, when asked to re-
hearse his little piece, repeated the
words of his coach and punctuated
it with a bit of buck and wing dance.
The crowd roared and told the
Frenchman that he must not dance
when quoting such a solemn express
sion, He replied that his coach
danced at the end of the sentence
and he thought it was part of the
instruction.
Thereafter the passengers on meet
ing in the deck promenade greeted
one another with the question "Who
was the father of his country? p
When the words George Washing
ton" were repeated everybody danced

"Our Territory

One of the Chicago packers, in
the trial now going on at Chica-
go, complained that "Swift in
fringed on our territory" The
disputed territory was in New
York and Vermont, and the
question naturally arises: How
did that territory, or any other
territory, come to be the eXclus
i've property of Swift or anybody
else?
The answer is simple. Because
