OPENED ASSAULT ON TARIFF.
Senator McCumber Defended the Farm
ers To-day.

Washington, ID. c., July l4.-Senator
McCumber of North Dakota, opened the
Republican assault on the Democratic
tariff revision bill in the Senate to-day,
defending the farmers of the country
against the free listing or great reduc-
tion in tariff rates on agricultural prod
ucts, and charging the Democratic party
with deliberately kicking the Ameri-
can farmer into the gutter"
I'm this year 1919" said Senator Nc
Cumber, addressing the Democrats, you
are about to commit greater crime
against the American farmer than has
ever been perpetrated by any political
party against any class of people during
any period of recorded history.
with violent hands you are about
to strip him of every advantage which
the changed conditions of home supply
and demand were about to yield to him
You have declared that he is an outcast
in the land which he has made, the only
one of all the classes of American people
who is not entitled to any considera-
ton at your hands. You have insuted
his sense of fairness, slapped him in the
face and kicked him into the gutter"
The tariff bill, Senator McCumber de-
clared seemed to have been conceived
in luminosity against every American in
dustry that needed protection" with the
American farmer as the "speciah object
of his choler and hate
Us it because of his past political
affiliation that you are heaping upon
him the vengeance for all your previous
defeats? Or do you consider yourself
to be the instrument through which
Providence is to work its punishment be.
cause in the last political campaign he
forgot the faith of his fathers and went
chasing after a strange god. with cloven
hoofs and branching antlers? If he is
to be punished for his heresy, are you
the proper person to infiict the punish
ment? You are the beneficiary of the
farmers infdelity to his own party last
fall. And for you now to be his execu-
toner for the offense of being misled
by you strikes me as being one of the
most cold -blooded propositions / have
ever heard Of"
1t was the Democrats. Senator Me.
Cumber declared, who told the farmer
that he had been wronged by Mr.. Taft
because the former president sought to
trade off his protection for reciprocal
tariff reductions by Canada and it was
the Democrats who tried to convince
the farmer that the Republican party
was not to be trusted and that they
instead, should be entrusted with his
interests. The reciprocity proposition,
the senator argued, had one virtue, in
that it proposed to get something for
surrendering nothing, while the Demo
Gratis proposed to trade away the farm
er's interest in everything "for absolute
ly nothing"

Putting the aCleave" in Cleveland

They're busy, just now. putting the
"cleave" in "Cleaveland to use the old

Grafton for Charity and Philanthropy is
an alliance of So of the city's social
organizations to collect all funds for the
current expenses of the SO institutions
by means of one central board rather
than through individual organizations;
to put into use each year the $4,000
to 100000 which is now spent in making
So collections, where henceforth only one
will be necessary; to enable officers OF
organizations to devote to actual work
time now devoted to securing funds;

petition was set afoot when 300 So
cal workers carried on brisk, week
long ''giver getting campaign" from June
2 to 0, going from house to house ex-
planning the purposes of the federation
and inspiring gifts
As result. the number of gifts made
to charity through the federation is
$500. The number of people who ordi-
narily give to Cleveland's charities each
year is 5000. This means that in the
brief four months of its existence the
federation has already secured half as
many donors as have before been con-
tributing annually. In four months it
has done half years job.
More than that, the donations that
have so far been made to the federation
total s250,00o. and the annual amount
that Cleveland people have been giving
to charities in past years averages $780,,
600. Here, too, then, the federation has
reached the halfway place in less than
half year.--The Survey.

A Dog Should Pick Good Boy and Stick
To Him.

In the July American Magazine, Don
Marquis writes dog story entitled
Dogs and Boys an extract from which
follows:
"If you are dog of any sense, you
will pick out pretty good sort of a
boy and stick to him. These dogs that
are always adopting one boy after an
other get bad name among the hui
mans in the end. And you'd better keep
in with the humans, especially the
grown-up ones. Getting your scraps off
a plate at the back door two or three
times day beats hunting rabbits and
ground squirrels for living.
"What dog wants is boy anywhere
from about 8 to 16 years old. A boy
under hasn't enough sense, as rule,
to be any company for an intelligent
dog. And along about 10 they begin to
dress up and try to run with the girls,
and carry on in a way to make dog
tired. There are exceptions of course
one of the worst mistakes some dogs
make is to suppose that all boys are
alike. That isn't true; you'll find just
as much individuality among boys as
there is among us dogs, if you're pa
tient enough to look for it and have
knack for making friends with ami
mails. But you must remember to be
kind to boy if you're going to teach
him anything; and you must be care
full not to brighten him.
