OLSON CASE TO
JURY THIS EVENING
UnwrItten Law Is DEFENSE Of Profe-.
sor Who Killed Driver OF
Laundry Wagon.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.]
ST. PAUL, Mimi, April S.-The un-
written law-that which justifies a
man in killing to protect his home
is the defense used by attorneys for
Professor Oscar Olson on trial here
for killing Clyde Darling, laundry
wagon driver.
Attorneys agreed this morning that
the professor would probably know
his fate within twenty-four hours, as
the case is expected to go to the jury
tonight.
Attorney Stanley Donnelly for Oh
son, began his argument to the jury
this morning, drawing vivid picture
of the outraged husband who was
threatened with death by the man
who ruined his home. Olson, the at
torney said, was driven to murder by
Darlings openly degraded passion for
Mrs Olson.
The unquestioned right of any man
to protect his home was dwelt upon
by Donnelly and Darling's prison rec
ord was again dragged forth.
Mrs. Darling, one Of the last wit
nesses yesterday, testified that during
November, December, January ant
February, her husband was home ev
cry night. Mrs. Olson declared b.
visited her two nights during this
period. Mrs. Darling admitted tha
her husband often left her for Other
women, remaining away for ST.
months at time. When she wa'
forced to admit that her late husband
had served time in the state reforma
tory for grand larceny, she tainted
and was taken from the stand

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
WASHINGTON. April S.-How does
the new democratic tariff bill pro-
pose to lower the cost of living?
Exactly how much will it reduce the
price of clothing, food, fuel and other
necessaries of life?'
Representative Francis Burton Har-
rison OF New York. a member of the
ways and means committee, who as
sisted in the framing of the measure,
answered these two questions today,
viewing them from the democratic
standpoint, In the following state
ment he prepared for the United
Press:
[By Francis Burton Harrison, rep
resentative from the sixteenth New
York district.1
The present tariff bill is the most
earnest attempt to lower the cost of
living, to break up the power of tariff
proteced monopolies and to tighten
the burden of taxation since before
the war.
The American producers of food,
clothing and other necessaries of life
will no longer be able to monopolize
the home market. They must now
compete on fair terms with the pro-
ducers Of other lands. The consumers
will benefit through getting better
article at a less price.
| This is the first attempt since the
| foundation of our government to shift
the burden of taxation off the great
masses of consumers, where the tariff
places it, onto the backs Of the
wealthy, who are best able to pay the
expenses of our government. Every
dollar which will be collected through
the income tax means dollar less Of
tariff burden on the plain people.
The income tax will be assessed
against the incomes OF the wealthy te
make up the deficit in revenues thai
will follow the reduction of import
duties on the necessities of life. Ant
every dollar of it will represent {
clear saving to the consumer on food
clothing, fuel and other necessaries
Under the new tariff, this amount cal
be estimated at from s125,o00,000 t.
$15O.0O0,O00. The following resum.
of drastic reductions in the presen
tariff law illustrates the far-reachinl
effect the new bill will have:
Food: All duty will be taken OF
meats, fresh and prepared. This mean
i that meat from Argentine can be I'm
ported to compete with the product o
i United States packers.
All fish are on the free list, spell
ing probable average of twenty pc
cent reduction in its cost to consum
ers. This covers the enormous catcl
in the nothern Atlantic waters, ma
jority of which is marketed in tn
east.

The Dangers of
Thoughtless
Buying.

The dangers to you of
thoughtless buying are many.
"a man loses his time that
comes early to a bad bargain"
runs an old German proverb.
You lose more than your time,
for needless purchasing means
wasted money, effort, and
thought. Poor quality is high
at any price.
How can l avoid it?" you
say. 81 want the best my mon
ey will command, but I cannot
know all qualities" Surely you
cannot know everything about
articles you buy. but you can
trust safely to the honesty of
merchants Of known worth.
Buy the best your money will
command in stores where you
can rely on those selling the
goods, with the help of THE
GATE CITY. Read daily the
advertisements OF the mer-
chants advertising in THE

MOSS POINTS COMPLAINT.

One of the Democrat-Stars az
vertisers had in his advertisement
last week this well known phrase:
Nobody likes the man who talks
too much"
Keeping that truthful statement IN
mind, this paper has paid little at
tention TO this wild clamor Of the
Moss Point Advertiser about Pasca-
aoula getting practically all Of the
prominencei in connection with every
thing big that goes on around the
harbor Just because the ships pay
their clearance custom" at this
place.
While we don't want to be so
rude as to call Moss Point merely a
suburb, it is a fact that every large
city has its important suburbs ard
it is not Pascagoula's fault that the
neighboring city lies back OF it, away
from the trunk line railroad, the port
clearance points and the main high
ways Of travel.
Chicago has most Of her factories
IN her suburbs, as also do New York
and all the big cities. Pascagoula
does not deny that Moss Point has
to furnish" nearly all the timber
that goes out of the Port of Pasca-
goula, for this is no longer a woods.
Moss Point at the present time pos
sesses more saw mills than Pasca-
goula and we wish she had still
more, for good part Of their pay
rolls. as well as their output, finds
its way into and through the Pasca-
goula channel of commerce.
Pascagoula is the natural point IN
this vicinity for large city. Its
citizens, therefore, are doing no wor-
rying on that score. Moss Point
editorial writer's would live mucf
longer it they would stop worrying
over SO much prominence beinG
given TO the name Pascagoula an
be happy.
Pascagoula cannot be blamed be
cause Moss Point grew up atshe
rear.
