| FEAR TARIFF BILL
Paint Manufacturers, on the
Other Hand, Express OPP
timistic View.

A rather optimistic view of the
4 proposed tariff as it affects paint
manufacturers is taken by H. De-
Witt Whittelsey, district manager
for the Sherwin- Williams Paint
Company. Mr.. Whittelsey states that
his firm is not unduly alarmed over
the new rates, and so far has not
estimated that they will seriously
affect the business. Owing to the
fact that the duties are changed
from specific to ad valorem the exact
1 differences which will be oceasioned
have not yet been computed, al
though. according to Mr.. Whittelsey,
1t has been recognized that some of
the reductions were greater than
paint manufacturers desired to see
Flax hackers, or combers, of
kearny, on the other hand, are up
in arms over the proposed tariff
changes, as they affect their trade
. and assert that if they are carried
q : they will lose their means of
livelihood. Hackers employed at the
Marshall Linen Thread Mills, of
Kearny. point out that it is proposed
TO reduce the duty on hacked flax
from three cents to one and one half
cents a pound They add that they
felt even the three cents pound
was not sufficient protection and that
last January they went to Washing
. ton and asked the House committee
ON ways and means to take off the
duty of one cent a pound on raw
fax.
we did not seek for any increase
of duty on dressed flax" the hack
lers say, "having respect for the
Democratic party's pledge for down
ward revision of the tariff, but we
pointed out to the committee on ways
and means that we were deprived of
steady employment owing to the in
!. creased importation of hacked flax,
and also that we have lost all our
better paid grades of fax because the
firm could import them from Europe
at a cheaper rate than we could
hackle them here.
we find that no attention has been
given to us worklngmen, but that the
manufacturer has been given all the
benefits and is encouraged to spend
his good American dollars in pur-
chasing flax that has been hacked
in Europe, while We American work.
ingmen will be made idle. We have
taken up this matter with Congress
men kinkead, Mccoy and Townsend
and have also asked Senators Mar
tine and Hughes to resist to the ut
most any reduction on hacked flax.
Most of the linen thread and yarn
spinners in this country have hack
ling plants in Europe, where wages
are much less than they are here.
, Machine hackers in this country re-
ceive from $3.50 to $1,000 week;
hand hackers receive $14 a week. In
Belfast, ireland, machine hackers re-
ceive II shillings a week, and hand
hackers 90 shillings, In Holland,
Belgium and Russia wages are far
less than they are here"

GOVERNOR VEToES CODE

PHOENIX, Ariz., April 12.-Goy-
ornor George w. p. Hunt has vetoed
the revised penal code of Arizona as
passed by the legislature after several
weeks work. This action was taken
because it virtually removed the par
doning power of the governor by an
amendment providing that the gov
ernor could not grant stay of ex
ecution of a sentence involving the
death penalty unless there was new
evidence tending to show the inno-
cence of the condemned person.

OF the many stunts performed by the

that probably gets the most appreciation is
the game of base ball played by these
mighty and unweildy pachaderms. Every

ludicrous manner, and the laughs furnished
by this number will remain as pleasant

ming the bases and the slide to home plate
never fail to bring forth rounds OF applau Sc
and laughter from the audience. Another
funny situation is when the pitcher has two
strike on big Mary" he and he catcae
get into an animated argument over the
next ball to be served by the pitcher and
trumpet into each other ears. This little
piece of by.play always meets with the in-
slant approval Of the audience and adds
greatly to the already fanny number. This
act was presented to New York Citys de-
lighted millions last winter and came in for
more favorable newspaper comments than
any amin Il act seen there in recent years.
