BRIEF IN RATE CASE PRINTED
OF COMMERCIAL CLUB FOR LOVER
CLEARLY SET FoRTH-RELIEF CONFIDENTLY EXPECTED

The brief prepared by ]. R. Tally,
attorney for the Commercial Club, in
its case before the Interstate Com
merce Commission, seeking to secure
from that commission, a ruling to
compel the railroads to give Hatties-
burg the same rates as are enjoyed
by Jackson, Meridian and Gulfport,
has just been printed, and copies have
been given out to those directly inter-
ested in the matter.
The brief bears evidence of careful
preparation, and puts Hattiesburg's
case in unmistakable terms.
1t will be recalled that Hattiesburg
made hard fight before the same
commission several years ago. At
that time the Commercial Club was
represented by c. H. Alexander of
Jackson, and Gen. Miller, of New Or
leans, who made a strong effort to
secure an order to compel the rail.

claim that it is as useful in a kitchen
as two hired girls and a gas stove.
On the whole, 1t is more fun to be
"a Republican than a Democrat, be-
cause Democrat is so scared of the
tariff all through the campaign that
he can't sleep at night. A Demo-
crat will link arms with tiger and
stroke his whiskers with pleasure,
but let the tariff rise up ever SO
little and he shrieks for help from
Maine to California.
Republicans are very kind to the
tariff and point with pride to it's
growth and height. But Democrats
claim 1t should be cut in two close
to the TAIL and they would have
done SO in 1892 when they had the
thing tied up, if they had not been
so afraid of 1t.
We owe great deal to the tariff,
because it has protected our infant
industries until they could grow up
and become carnivorous.

THE TARIFF
BY GEORGE FITCH,
Author of AT Good Old Slwash"

The tariff is like a revolver. 1t is
either menace or a protection, de-
pending on whether you are opposing
it or are standing behind it.
If you are opposing the tariff, it is
cruel and hungry monster which
reaches into the dinner bucket of the
poor man and yanks the porterhouse
steak and cold raspberry pie out of it..
If you favor the tariff it is a benevo-
lent high board fence which keeps the
cruel monster of foreign competition
from getting at the same dinner pail.
Any way you look at it, the tariff is
intimately associated with the dinner
pail A good many people insist that
it is the watch dog Of the dinner pail
while others say that it never pays
to give the dog the contents of said
pail for watching it.
The tariff lives in the customs
house, but is borrowed by both Re-
publican and Democratic parties dur
ing each campaign and led about the
country for exhibition purposes. When
Democrats exhibit the tariff, they do
so with great terror and pale states
men endeavor to keep it from break
out Of the cage and devouring child
rem, three at a gulp.
On the other hand, when Republi-
cans exhibit the tariff they put their
arms lovingly around its neck and

IN ARMS
AGAINST M0RM0As
Ministerial Association to Take
Action to Ward Off
Invasion.

Ministers Of the city intend to take
n to offset the possibility of Nor
mon missionaries gaining a foothold
In Newark. Such action will be direct
ed in two ways, first before the newly
formed Ministerial Association, n
then through the pastors Of b vari-
Gus churches, with the city authorities,
if there is found any instance OF tho
Mormons preaching polygamy here.
Following the account in the STAR
this morning of the workings of a
Mormon missionary In Court street sew
eral of the ministers of the city ex-
pressed themselves forcibly as favor
ing the discussion of h matter be-
fore the Ministerial Association. Some
of the preachers urged the calling of a
special meeting of the association, but
Rev. DIR. Dorr f. Diefendorf. president
of the new body, suggested hat as
there was a regular meeting of the as
ISOLATION on Tuesday, February 81. it
would be as well to- allow the matter
to come up before that meeting II 1t
was to be discussed.
Dr.. w. j. Dawson Of the First Pres
byterian Church., said that he thought
the Norman matter should be taken
up Dy The FliIitotCii0 <AoSoSAuttShs q
the Mormons were particularly ener
getic missionaries and might do ines
Unable harm among a certain class OF
citizens, even If not arnong the church
members. DR.. Dawson suggested that
If there was any indication of polygamy
being preached 1t would be wise to
take the Mormon question up with the
city authorities at onc
The Presbyterian pastor said that
the Mormons were expanding to a de-
gree little realized by people in gen.
eral and he told OF seeing about zoe
converts coming to this country from
Liverpool as far back az five years ago
, when he was crossing to America.
1t is likely that either Or. Dawson OF
Rev. DIR. II. "a WATSON. of St Stcph.
ens' Episcopal Church. will bring the
question before the ministers az thei,
next meeting.
DR.. WATSON feels that the presence
Of actively working Mormon mission.
aries in the city is O n to the
welfare of Newark. He doubts whether
the Mormons would 90 so far as Il
attempt to preach polygafny, as the,
are now openly prociaiming tina they
do not practise 1t. but he feels thai
even their teachings should be Tough
against by the ministers Of Newark
with all the effort possible.
Other pastors spoke equally a
strongly in favor OF some action be-
ing taken at the Ministerial Associa'
ton meeting.
