FREE TRADE CAN'T WIN.

Nothing could be more significant of the fact that is
protection not free trade country than the prompt action Of
the Democratic House OF Representatives in epdiang the
free sugar bill.
Readers of the in we'll know that this paper has
not at any time feared the passage Of free sugar bill by
Congress. It might possibly get through the House an
item in the game OF parzan politics. But could pass
the Senate.
The action Of the House yesterday is therefore more an
expression of national sentiment than patzanShp. Not

time he may take talking about the need for reduction Of
tariff or OF he ills that high tariff has brought about Two

The condemnation SUIT" now going Oh
before the United States District
Court is extremely interesting to the
student of taxation. The ablest wrl-
ters on the difficult subject Of taxa
ton. both in England and America,
have long called attention to the fact
that the tax on general property has
been found to be an unequal tax In all
civilized countries. II has been found
to be regressive. instead OF a pro-
gressive. tax system. 1t has broken
down completely in England. 1t has
also been abandoned in GERMANY.

taxation should distribute its burdens
on the man Of wealth and the poo

The note OF sadness that accompa-
MES this announcement is much the
same that pervaded New York some
months ago after some authority had
made known the alleged fact that the
high instep is disappearing among the
school children. The hollow between
the ball of the foot and the heel Is
filling up and the American is due to
become a flatfooted being.
One physiological authority has
written, In New York paper, that
with elevators in school houses and
everywhere, children do not get that
exercise of all the muscles that they
used to have when they climbed
stairs; that II II is not imposed upon
them to excess, stair-climbing is not
detrimental to physical upbuilding
and health; II evens up the use of the
muscles, bringing into play those that
remain ut rest when one Is walking;
and that the disuse of them is what
HdtttHS tne DottOIl OI tnt lOOt at tnt
expense of the instep.
II that Ii so, there must have been
a prevalence of hattened feet among
Anne ricans at the time of the Revolu-
ton. for there could have been very
little stair-climbing; none at all in
school houses nor In the farm houses
OF the people OF ordinary means; very
few of even the colonial mansions
were more than one fight of stairs In
height. So, while retaining all the
seriousness there may be in the sub
ject, It still may be given joking
twist by asking what harm there Is In
being hat-feeters. so long as we are
not fat-heads? Didn't out forefath-
ers, who had no stairs to climb, come
out fat footed" against the tyranny
OF King George III? And did the lack
of high instep hinder them In their
fighting at Bunker Hill or at Sara
toga?

FLAT FOOTED, KNOCK KNEED.

MADISON, Wis, Feb. 2l.-That
fifty-one per cent of the freshman
co-eds at the University of Wis
consin are knockkneed and 10 per
cent are fiatfooted, is shown in
the report made by Miss A. s.
Mayhem, director of the women's
gym for the year 19l0-l9l1.
The report makes no effort to
explain this condition of affairs.
The average weight of the Badger
coed is 1873 pounds. while the av-
erage height IL $3.50 inches.
The solution of the knoc Hkneed
condition of the majority of the
girl students caused much gos-
sip In the university student and
faculty circles. but II remained
for the art classes to offer the
most reasonable solution, this be-
ing the well known attitude of
modesty exhibited most notably

property. though perhaps five or six
times the realty, Is assessed for less,
and Is shrinking instead, of increasing.
| do not doubt that the taxation In
this Territory more nearly distributes
the burdens upon rich and poor alike
than II does upon the mainland. But
vet, as will be seen by comparing the
value of property under condemnation
for taxing purposes and the real value
AS shown and sworn to before the
court of condemnation Is very differ
ent.
Equality of taxation Is admittedly
one of the most difficult problems In
fiscal economics. Some of the most
recent writers on the subject, how
ever. such as Seligman. Taussig and
Marshall, throw a food of light on the
whole subject, and their recommended
tons should be read and digested by
all legislators. 1t would be of great
interest for some competent expert
to investigate the whole subject of
taxation In Hawaii and to endeayor
to find out In the last analysis who
really pays the taxes-upon whom the
Incidence of taxation falls.

The tendency Of the most vigor-
Gus growth is to the terminal shoot
of the upright branches. Vigorous
growth of upright shoots means
wood, not fruit. We, therefore
leave the lateral branches nearly un
touched, oftimes full length, becaus
under this method of pruning the
laterals are very likely to set fruit
buds the third summer, and to fruit
with more or less freedom, accord
ing to the condition of the tree, the
fourth season. At the end of the
third years growth We prune IN
similar method, leaving yet more
lateral wood to set fruit buds to de
velop fruit close to the principal
branches of the tree, where the
fruit can be safely supported, prop
erly nourished and developed.

JUMP IN SILVER MEANS BOOM
IN COLORADO MINING CAMPS.
White Metal Rises Il Point This,
Week: Price Now co 3-S.

Silver has taken another rise of
one-quarter of a point. Only two
weeks ago the price was SO Il cents,
the average for the last two years.
Ii is predicted that the rise will con-
tinue and excitement in the many
silver camps of the state is rising
with the price.
Colorado has an enormous silver
supply, but many mines have been
forced to remain idle for years be-
cause of the high cost of production.
Silver has been mined in Colo
RADIO during recent years largely as
a by-product and very little of it has
been produced except what was TAX
en- from ores mined for other min
erals.
There has been hardly any act
witty among the pure silver mines
during the last twenty years.
All over the state large mines
have been constantly waiting rise
in the market. A movement has
recently been made at Aspen to re.
new activities in silver production
Large ore bodies have recently been
found at Caribou and continued
high price will mean rapid develop
ment of that section.
Clear Creek, Summit. Lake, Chat
fee, Mineral and all the counties
of the San Juan range have silver
camps with mines always ready to
give large production. Creole,
in Mineral county, a famous boom
camp in the early COS, has vast
bodies of silver ore waiting for a
renumerative market price.
The small amount of silver need
ed for currency has been given as
the cause of low prices and mining
in activity. Tonopah and Cobalt
mines, where silver is a by-product,
have supplied much of the metal in
recent years.
The cause for the steady rise is
given as the Increased demand for
silver in China and India, China is
buying large quantities of silver at
the present time, giving rise to the
new report that the new republic is
revising the monetary system, dis
pensing with the cash" and using
silver as the standard for coinage.
1t is also said that silver is to be
the principal money in India.
There is speculative element in
the present rise in prices. but the
principal control of the market is
coming from those who are expecting
a steady demand for the metal. 1t
is said that from 100000 to 50,-
100000 ounces in excess of the aver
age annual production are needed.
