Successful Tariff
Revision

A sympathetic gentleman from
Mars might easily work himself into
state Of great excitement by reading
the Congressional Record these days.
He would gather from the debates
that the fate of a great party aud of "a
great political measure hung not
merely upon the question of free su
gar and tree wool but upon such slen
der threads as a ten-oent duty on
wheat and two or three per cent IN
certain items of the cotton schedule.
As a matter of fact, whether this
tariff revision is successful or not de
ponds mostly upon forces over which
all the anxious debaters put together
have little or no control. That there
wilt be a very substantial reduction
in duties is as near foregone con-
olusiou as anything can be In a mu-
table world. Whether that reduction
proves popular or unpopular depends
upon general business conditions In
the United States during the next
three years; and 10 shaping those
conditions the tariff bill-whatever
form it may finally take-will have
very little effect. What kept the
democratic party out Of power for
twenty years was not the Wilson Cor
man tariff aaseo. but the panic OF
1893 aud the four ensuing years of
hard times-for which the poor dem
ocrats we're no more responsible than
any body else,
At Magellan instance Filipino
sultan embraced Christianity ami
overthrow his heather idols; but
when Magellan was unfortunately
beaten 10 a fight the sultan promptly
set up his idols again regarding the
defeat as indubtiable proof that
Christianity was a false religion. We
are that way about the tariff. If luck
should run against the democrats in
the matter OF general business condi-
tions we shall return to our forty per
cent idols. IL should not be SO but
It is. Hence the anxious debates at
Washington have a pathetic quail
ity.-Ex.

INDIAN PLAYER ON TEAM

Next Sunday Afternoon the Crooks
ton Lumber Company base ball team
will clash with the Fosston City team
in this city. The game was scheduled

diamond on numerous ossasions and
are anxious to put the team in the
lead before the season expires.
+ One new player has been added to
the team during the past week and
he will probably be given a try out
next Sunday. The newcomer is a six
foot Indian and claims he has pitched
many games with strong teams He is
now employed by the Lumber Com
pany and appeared for practice for
the first time Monday night Smiley
will still be retained as pitcher but
will have the big chief to substitute
for him. Herbert will act at the re-
ceiving end with Reddell on first
base. Other men who will probably
play part of the game are johnson,
Achenbach Malone, Bailey, Cords,

TO ADVANCE ON ADRIANOPLE
Turkish Government Hopes to Profit
By Balkan Warefare

Constantinople, July 1.-THE gov
eminent is determined to push for
ward Ottoman troops as far as the
stronghold of Adrianople, captured
by the Bulgarians after a prolonged
siege during the recent Balkan war.
Although official circles in Con.
stantinople are reticent on the sub
ject it is understood that such for
ward step is the deliberate plan OF
the government. It intends to take
this action not only because of the
material advantages to be gained,
but because of the moral effect it
will have on Turkeys international
situation.
It is expected that by this means
the position of the government Will
be strengthened and consolidated
and it is felt that even If the powers
insist on bringing pressure to bear
to compel the maintenance of the
future frontier line between Turkey
and Bulgaria from Enos on the
Aegean sea, to Media on the Black
sea, Turkey will yet be in a position
to enforce the autonomy Of the
province of Thrace.
Thus far, however, the powers
have not addressed any communities
ton to the Turkish government on
the subject of the advance of the
Ottoman troops toward the north.

OTHER POWERS
TO FOLLOW SUIT
Great Britain Bases It's Protest on
The Monroe Doctrine Admin
stration Must Act
PRES. WILSON HOPED TO DELAY
Until New Regime Was Established
In Mexico Following October
Election

Washington, July 17.-Of prime in
terest to diplomats here Is the situa.
ton in Mexico and the knowledge that
the Democratic administration would
shortly be forced to test OF the Mon
roe doctrine. =.
The administration had hoped to
stave off any action with regard. to
Mexico until after the October cleo,
lions, when new regime would be
established in the republic which
could be recognized by the United
States.
The general opinion here is that this
hope was destroyed with the informal
representations which have been made
by Great Britain. The London for.
eign Office, it was understood, prac-
tically served notice on the state de-
partment that under the Monroe doc.
trine it held the United States to be
the guarantor of peace in Mexico. r.
Other European powers are expect.
ed shortly to follow suit. Their am
bassadors in Mexico City have recon-
mended such action. The situation as
explained by diplomats is therefore
that the United States has been ap-
pealed to under a doctrine which it
must support at all hazards.
America is practically the only civil
lized nation that has withheld recog-
milton of the Huerta regime in Mexico.
President Taft passed the problem
along to his successor and Wilson, de.
string time for study of the situation,
delayed action. It is believed now
that if this recognition should be given
the Mexican government would con.
strue it as 'back.-g down" by this
government and be more arrogant than
ever in its treatment of American cit
liens in the republic ss*,.esss.4..s .s.
The fact that the Mexican admin
istration officially has no standing in
it's relations with the United States
has made it impossible for the United
States properly to emphasize it's de-
mands for protection Of Americans in
the Southern republic.

RECEIPTS FOR TAXES MAILED
Increase in Month Of May Nearly
Twenty One Thousand Dollars.

Receipts for the County taxes for
the month OF May have been finished
by the County Treasurer and have
been mailed to the taxpayers through
out the county. The total for May,
1913 shows an increase over the same
month last year OF nearly $4,000.
This amount was taken in during the
month of May, which shows how the
people wait until the last few days
before paying and then expect to re-
celye the receipt within a few days
time after payment. On May 3lst. the
last day to pay before penalty has
been AIDED amounted to 117,S87.99.
The total received during the month
amounted to $l71,OO5.53 this year
and $l50,276.89. 81 :

JApS DRIVEN FROM JOB
Laborers Are Told To Keep Away
On Threat That Lynching Would
Follow
SHERIFF ARRESTS 3 LEADERS

Steamboat Springs, Colo, July II.
"A construction gang working on
the extension of the Denver and Salt
Lake railroad attempted to drive
from the grading camp a party Of
Japanese laborers who were brought
here last Tuesday. The Japanese
came from Denver and had been
housed in box cars at the lower end
of town.
A gang of men went to the JAP
anese camp, three of them imper.
sonating officers, for the purpose of
gaining an entrance into the cars.
As soon as the doors were open the
gang of men rushed into the cars
with ropes and revolvers and ordered
the Japanese to dress, giving them
notice that they must cease work on
the railroad grade and leave this
part of the country. They then
conducted the Japanese about two
miles out of town and told them
that If they returned the ropes
would be used.
Sheriff Chivington arrested three
of the ringleaders and has placed
deputies around the bunk cars to
prevent the members of the mob
from attempting to carry out their
threats.
Officials of the road insist that the
Japanese shall be allowed to work
because of the scarcity of white Ia
Dor, construction work having been
delayed because of the lack of labor
ers.
