Tariff Against Farmers

Aberdeen. S. D., Nav Icon
gresham Charles H. Burke in an
interview here Wednesday stated
that it was his opinion that the Cof-
fey-Johnson- Taubman list of recon
mendations for appointive positions
In South Dakota would be Endorsed
by the president and would pass con-
gress. He further stated that the
Wilson Underwood tariff bill would
meet with opposition in the upper
house from the republicans, and
that there will be amendments to
the bill before it left that body. In
his opinion the measure is a discrim-
ination against the farmers, cheap.
ening their products without in re-
turn reducing the cost of food pro,
ducts. He expects a summer ses-
sion this year.

A recent order of the Interstate
Commerce Commission is of especial
interest to the west. A readjust-
ment of rates was made by the Com.
mission in a case brought against
the Burlington and other north
western roads. Wyoming coal was
found not to be moving freely.
II was held 1.-THE facts in these cases
demonstrates a necessity of promul-
eating rates which will allow this
coal to find a market in the territory
described. In order to accomplish
this result, there must be a free in
terchange of traffic at reasonable
joint rates"
Commissioner Meyer, who pre-
pared the opinion. suggested a
scheme of rate readjustment. pro-
viding for certain reduction and
e%qualizing differentials. This scheme
the railroads are directea to carry
out. If they do not. the commission
will issue a positive order ON the
subject.

Keep Up Your Chickens

AS this is a time of year when a
neighbours chickens cause more
trouble than the tariff question, this
novel plan of Junction City. Kansas,
man is recommended:
"A gardener who was being both
cred by his neighbors' chickens is
using a novel scheme to keep the
feathered pests out of his garden
spot. says the Union. He attaches
little tags on grains of cor with a
thread and throws the corn into his
ward. The neighbors chickens make
their daily invasion on the young
onions. radishes. etc, and swallow
the graf IS of corn, which of course,
leaves the tags hanging out of their
mouths. Each tag is incribed with a
few lines as follow: Please pen me
up; am scratching your nelghbor's
garden" IF you miss me, | will be
in - frying pan Sunday morn
ing" Please mend my pen so can't
get out" When the chickens go
home with the tags all hanging out
of their mouths. the owners of course
investigate at once. and get the full
effect of the inscriptions. The grains
of corn to which the tags are attach
ed can be easily pulled out. and the
plan it is said is bringing good re-
suits"

Sunday, and Monday morning, with
a total of two and a quarter inches.
The ground was thoroughly soaked,

The Sunday rain was slow and easy,
lasting several hours, but early next

for the city sewers to carry it off.
The rain was general over the state.

If It is short. Brunettes are blessed
with hair even in color, and the coils
at the back are easily managed with
short novelties which will match the
natural hair exactly. It is not SO easy
for blonds to find a perfect match, as
blond hair is generally somewhat
streaked.
In dressing this coiffure nearly all
of the hair is combed back to form the
coils. These require four strands.
and they are parted on evenly. By
waving the hair little 1t is easier to
make the coils full and light and gives

Left Will In Memoirs.

A romantic story OF will written
in a book of memoirs has Just come to
light in Paris. Some time ago-about
ten years-M. Lefevre de Revel, an
excise inspector, retired from his post
and not knowing how to fill in his
spare time. began the task OF writing
his memoirs. He made excellent
progress and the number Of volumes
soon became amazing. He had them
bound and gave them to his relatives
and friends to read. and was highly
complimented by them. On page $40
of the 11th volume he wrote will
leaving his fortune (about $S0,000D to
various friends. At the nth volume
he died. AS none of his friends had
had the fortitude and perseverance to
make their way as far as page $40
of the 11th volume, they all remained
in complete ignorance of this will,
and the nextof kin took the fortune.
A short time ago. purely by chance.
tho will was discovered, and the
friends named in the will have begun
an action to recover the fortune.

Another Spark Of War.
A spark OF war was kindled by the

France, and Washington was called
once more to prepare for command,

come ashore. But formal war did not

tie nearer the movements Of politics

aliens and against those who should
utter seditious libel against the gov

women In wearing wraps of fur
they wear such garments as II they
were slipping OF the shoulder.
Fox. skunk and martin are favored
for collars, cuffs and borders. White
fox and furs dyed in fancy shades are
smartest for evening wraps. After
all. the dark furs make the best COM
bination with rich brocades.
It will not be hard to picture to
the mind the wrap shown here. with
dark mole-colored ground having deep
Natter blue in the pattern Of foliage
and flowers which covers 1t. The
combination is quiet but very rich.
There is almost no combination more
elegant.
Brocades for such coats are wide
and they are expensive. One must
expect them to cost from ten to TWEEN
ty dollars yard. They are more
costly than plain velvet, but such
triumphs Of the weaver's art must
bring price commensurate with their
superb beauty.
Muffs and turbans are made of these
rich fabrics. and trimmed with fur.
They lend elegance to plain costumes
without requiring great outlay Of
money. Fabric NUTS are draped and
are larger than those Of fur.
1t will be noticed that the material
Is draped in the seams of the coat
pictured here and that the shoulder
line (or the lack of shoulder line) pre-
serves the vague outline Of the figure
which fashion delights In.
