compete largely with men as wage
earners.
The objection to chivalry Is that
1t is only skin deep; that along with
extreme politeness may go the most
substantial injustice.
That, of course, is true. But isn't
1t better to have the injustice with
politeness than to have neither justice
nor courtesy?
Courtesy costs so very little, and
1t is SO nice!
The toast: "Women, once our SUI
periors, now our equals" was coined
as a witticism, but isn't there danger
of its becoming a tendency If we do
nothing to check the rapid disappear
ance of old-time politeness and court
esy among the young. and especially
among young men toward their sisters
their mothers and other fellows sist-
ers and mothers?
The Boy Scout movement has elo-
ments of usefulness in this direction
but a courtesy league for elders, as
in Berlin, might also serve a good
purpose in our careless age.-Louis

In looking over the names OF those
who answered to the roll call In the
reunion at Hartford fair grounds on
the Fourth of July twenty years ago,
we find that about eight of every
nine have gone to that great reun-
ion above. There will be only one
veteran in nine this year to help us
celebrate the grand old Fourth.
There was another notable feature
of that day that will be doubtless
remembered by some OF those present
Il had been announced that there
would be a bicycle race that day.
but for lack of courage or some
thing It failed to come off. But
there was one bicycle on the grounds
and Hayward furnished the fun for
the crowd. Mr.. Hayward had never
ridden a wheel ana In oruer 10 en-
iiyen the crowd decided to make his
initial effort to ride one that day
despite the fun he would make for tn
crowd of fully 5000 people right In

lively ride and the wiggle-de-wiggle
in and tut and around and about ran
the wheel, describing rainbows and
ended in a splash in the ditch, land

Busy People.

God never goes to the lazy or the
idle when he wants men for his serv-
ice. When God wants worker ne
calls a worker. When he has work
to be done. he goes to those already
at work. When God wants good
servant he calls a busy man. Scrip
ture and history attests this truth.
Moses was busy with his flocks at
Horeb. Gideon was busy threshing
wheat by the winepress. Saul was
busy searching for his fathers lost
beasts. Elisha was busy blowing
with twelve yoke OF oxen. David was
busy caring for his fathers sheep
Nehemiah was busy bearing the king
wine cup. Amos was busy following
the flock. Peter and Andrew were
busy casting a net into the sea. james
and John were busy mending theiI
nets. Mathew was collecting customs
Are you busy?

Washington, June 1.-THE much

tariff bill was suddenly
upset again by the majority members
If the Senate finance committee late
today, when a motion was made to re
consider the action taken earlier in
the day approving the free listing OF
livestock and wheat, subject to a
countervailing duty. The proposal
now is to strike out the provision
for a countervailing duty and leave
cattle, sheep, hogs and wheat on the
mitteemen said tonight this probab-
ly would be done. No reason for the
change is announced
The committee today further en-
larged the free list by voting to TAKE
hemp and ramie a (fibre from the
China grass plant. substitute fol
cotton) from the dutiable list. Th'
rates on the finished products o
these materials was largely reduced.
The effect of the countervailint

On State Rates.

Washington, June 16.-The su-
preme COURT may rule in the Kentuc-
ky railroad rate case. when it meets
again in October. The case was not
decided when the other decisions on
railroad rate case findings were an.

tack upon the constitutionaity Of the
form of the McChord act enabling
the state railroad commission to Tx
reasonable rates on interstate bust
ness.

Will ORGANIZE
new SUGAR TRUST
Deliberate Threat Is Made
Before Committee.
Oxnard Tells Senator Reed and
Explains Formation Of
Old Combine.

Washington, June 16.T Henry L.
Oxnard. vice president of the America
Beet Sugar Company, told the Senate
Lobby Committee today that free
sugar would result in the formation Of
a new sugar trust" Only the best
managed sugar factories would be
able to survive free sugar, he said,
and a combination would result.
Then you are going to form new
trust?" asked Senator Reed.
81 have that in mind" said the
witness.
'In violation of the antitrust law?
mo sir; there is no law to prevent
it. l am so advised by counsel"
Oxnard told how he assisted in or
ganizing the oldI sugar trust in 1888,
ganizing the old sugar trust in 1883,
exchanging his company with capt.
tai of 100000 for $4,000 new stock,
The new corporation later was taken
over by the American Sugar Refining
Company, the present so-called trust.
Oxnard said he received $4,000 .
year as vice president of the American
Beet Sugar Company, but denied that
he was paid that salary ''for legisIa-
tive work"
At the late afternoon session, Ok
nard testified that the American Beet
Sugar. Company was organized with
IS, OOO, 900 preferred and $15,0O0,OOo
common stock. He declared the latter
was water" now represented, how
ever, by plants and betterments.
Bankers took $4,000 preferred, and
got $5,OOO.OOO common as profit"
Don't you think you did a great
moral wrong in putting all this wat
er in the common stock?" asked Sena-
tor Nelson.
"You know Wall streets con-
science" returned Oxnard.
Senator Walsh questioned Oxnard
about the American Beet Sugar As
ISOLATION, an organization Of beet
Z sugar men, and predecessor of the
l United States Beet Sugar Industry,
which has been prominent in the pres
ent fight against free sugar. The wit
n ness did not know how much the Old
association had spent; its books were
destroyed about two years ago by bis
Authorization.
Senator Walsh sought to learr
whether Mr.. Oxnard was in Washing
ton when Sugar at a Glance" wa
N changed by someone in what the com
le mittee holds a violation of the Senat'
ly order making it a public document
