REJECTS AMENDED
TARIFF MEASURES
House Sends Wool, Sugar and El-
else Tax Back to Senate.

Washington, July 31,-With ma
chine like precision the Democratic
house forced three tariff measures
back upon the senate. They were the
wool and sugar tariff revision bills and
the excise tax bill and all were sent
back with none Of the senats's amend
ments accepted. On the wool bill no
conference was asked. The house left
1t fatty to the senate whether that
branch desired to pursue the legisla
ton further.
The senate was in quandry as to
the program 1t would adopt in further
consideration of the three bills. Regu-
lar Republicans were reported to be
favorable to a plan whereby they
would absent themselves from the
chamber, thus giving the Democrats
chance to pass the measures and send
them along for the presidential veto.
The Republican progressives, however,
opposed this scheme and insisted that
the differences, where they are recon-
cilable, be threshed out in conference.
Senate Democrats, enjoying the Re-
publican disagreement. will seek to
take advantage Of it. Some concert.
cd plan of action probably will be
adopted when the senate Democrats
caucus on the wool measure.

! son. This. however, amt no refleck-
j shion on the widow, being as she is as
| bright and smart and intelligent as
can be-
It is our opinion that Bud never got
none of his simpleness from his mother
but from his father. old Alb Hinckley,
who passed away many yrs ago. Alb
wasn't quite right in his head neither,
Jest like Bud. and therefore Bud come
by what he amt got in his head honest,
as you might say
Sometimes Bud is worsen other times
and last Thursday was one of the days
he was worse.
First thing Bud done after he had
ct his breakfast was to rig up fish
hook on the end of string. Then Bud
he stuck the fish hook through grain
o. corn and throwed the grain of corn
with the fish hook into it over into
Anne Hi11yer's hen yard and awaited re-
suits, which wassent very long i'll com
ing.
Ame's big don1inecl1er rooster, which
Anne takes a good cal of pride in, seen
the grain of corn fall on the ground
and made a dash for it and swallered
il and the next minnit the rooster had
the hook in his throat and begin to pull
on the string and squawk somethinl
turrib1e, while Bud held on to tother
end of the string and hollered louder
than the rooster could squawk.
Anne, who was in the house at the
time, heerd the racket and run out and
when he seen what Bud had did he
grabbed him by the nape of the neck
and cuffed him over the ears until Bud
stopped latin and begin to boiler and
bawl
Buds mother heerd him and rushed
to his rescue and when she seen Anne
cutting her Bud she laid holt of Anne
and erked him until she shuk his false
teeth outen his mouth. Then she slapt
him in the face until one eye is sweld
shet still and tore his coat and made
him apologize and beg for mercy for
abusing her son, who amt quite right
in his head anyhow. The rooster will
die
After this was over Bud he wan
dered down street until he come to Cy
Hosllins' buggy shed. which was open !
at both ends, being as Lem Brown had
Jest vanished Cy's buggy for him and
had propped the doors open SO as the
air could git through and help to dry

fingers aginst the varnish on the buggy
TO see if it was dry yet, and when he |
found it wassent he thort it would be |
a good joke to throw dust all over the !
buggy, which he did, and the dust stuck |
to the varnish and now the buggy will |
