possible This opinion Of Governor
Wilson is not only q vinuication OF
the wisdom Of the president, but it
stamps Governor Wilson as man
of broader gauge than his party In
spite Of aiI the tariff agitation, con-
gress has never had exact Informs
tion upon which to formulate a tariff
program. The average congressman
is no better equipped to wrestle with
this question than his neighbor back
home. Therefore it is refreshing to
see two such intellectual men as
President Taft and Governor Wilson
agree that the best way to settle the
tariff is to gain bipartisan, scientific
information as a basis Of action
When scientific information is laid

TANNER GETS pAIL,

Albuquerque, N. M, July S0.-I B.
Tanner Of Pennington. San Juan
county, N. M, who was arrested in
Navajo county. Ariz., several days
ago, on charge preferred by d. A,
Miera of Cuba, that Of uttering
worthless check, was arraiened be-
fore Judge Reynolds in the district
court today and released on s1.5OO
bail. Tanner, through his attorneys,
Mann & Vena'ble. waived prelini-
nary examination and tine case Will
be taken up later in San Juan county.
Tanner was arrested near Holbrcok
last weeH on charge made by Mie-
ra, who claimed that he had been de-
frauded. Tanner waived extradition
and was brought to Albuquerque by
Lieutenant John w. Collier OF the
New Mexico mounted police Miera
claims that Tanner purchased some
stock from him, giving IN return a
check for $4,000. The check, Miera
claims, was returned, marked no
funds. Tanner claims that he sim
ply held up the check and refused
to pay it because Miera had failed o
fulfill his contract with reference to
the delivery of etock that he had
purchased. From all accounts the
case between Miera and Tanner prob
ably is one for civil court.
