r. strongly to the passage OF the
bill in the Senate without mat
erial change of any provisions regard
ed as important by the President and
Mr.. Underwood There will be con-
siderable number of minor changes,
however, depending more or less upon
the temper and complacency OF the
Democratic members of the Finance
Committee. There is already much
private complaint among these Sena-
tors over the refusal of Mr.. Under
wood and his colleagues on the Ways
and Means Committee to adopt GER
tain obvious amendments while the
bill was in the House. It has been
shown in number of cases that the
rates carried by the bill as reported
to the House do not conform to the
announced purpose of the Democrats
in drafting their measure. These err
rors have usually come from acting
upon insufficient information, or with
out sufficient consideration of the in
formation IN hand. Articles widely
differing in price and in cost of pro-
duction, have been subjected to the
same rate, apparently on the theory
that this gave them similar treat
ment. In numerous cases, it has hap
pened that, upon this error being
pointed out to Mr.. Underwood and the
member of his committee in charge OF
the particular schedule affected, they
have consented either to assist in the
adoption of a proper amendment In
the Senate or at least not to oppose
such action by the Senate. In other
words, they have put it up to the Sen
ate to rectify mistakes even in cases
where they knew the error before the
bill passed out of their hands.
This makes some Of the Senators
very unhappy. And naturally. For
the Senators feel that it puts them in
a very awkward predicament. They
will be obliged to sponsor amend
ments increasing rates of duty while
Mr. Underwood will be entitled to
great credit for cutting rates. From
their point of view this gives Mr.. I'm
derwood a clear record with which to
go to the country for reelection, but
it puts them badly in the hole, as they
fear.
They would not have minded it SO
much in the days before the direct
election of Senators but they point
out now that they are obliged to go
before the people and make a public
canvass just the same as Mr.. Under
wood and his colleagues must do.
Several of these Senators face the
test of reelection next year just as
the House Democrats do, and they do
not think it is fair to them to be
obliged to carry the burden of cor
recting errors in the bill which were
known before it left the House and
which the House leaders should have
corrected on their own responsibility.
The talk about the Senate now is
that some 200 minor changes will be
made before the bill is passed. None
will be of any widespread Importance
except possibly the REIMBURSEMENT of
the pottery schedule which is under
taken at the direct intervention of
President Wilson.

TRUTH TO THE YOUTH

~ ICHARD HOBSON stated, anc
X emphasized his statement by
- repetition, 100000 Americans
die every year because of alcohol.
This was no unproven statement OF
the casual student of the liquor ques-
ton, it was backed by the most scien-
tific and logical investigation and
proven by a series of unassailable
statistics.
Can you grasp the magnitude OF
these fgures-and the magnitude of
the wrong being done to the nation ?
When you have fully digested it.
what will you do about it? Simply
gasp over it and admit that something
really should be done?
That may do credit to your senti-
ments but it really accomplishes very
little after all. Leaving work to be
done by the other fellow never has
done a great deal, and never will.
An appalling percentage of drunk
ards form the habit before the age of
twenty years; smaller percentage
but equally appalling, learn the love
of drink before they are twelve years
Old That makes it very evident just
how this problem must be solved.
The youth of America must have
the truth forcefully brought home to
them. The time to fight the liquor
habit is before it is ever formed and
the earlier the better.
Boys and girls should be taught the
absolute Truth! The average Amer
lean boy of eleven years is very cap
able of understanding the ruinous eff
fects of alcohol upon his physical sys-
TEN. Treat him as reasonable be-
ing and give it to him straight, put
ting aside any appeal to the sentimen-
tai side of his character.
Teach him that efficiency, manhood
and control are ruined by the deadly
effects of this virulent poison upon
his brain cells. Show him what can
be done by the man who abstains, and
what crimes are committed by the
man who drinks.
Keep everlastingly at it! Not only
in the schools but in the home, and,
above all, by example.
Carry the Truth, being sure it is the
Truth, to the boys and girls of Amer
ica-and drive it home hard.

GOSSIP OF THE PRESS

The demand for farm roads is the
loudest call coming from the agricul-
tural sections of the county. Give
the farmers roads over which to haul
their crops after they have raised
them and they will be amply able to
provide excellent schools for their
children.-Aurora News.
In all 10000 new box and fiat cars
have been ordered by the Great
Northern, Northern Pacific, Omaha
and 500 railroads in order to be in
readiness for moving the 1913 crops
of the Northwest, which, it is esti-
mated, will be the largest in the hist
DRY of the country. Whether this
forecast proves to be true or not the
railroads need the extra equipment,
for in former years the farmers lost
thousands of dollars from the inabil-
ity of the railroads to furnish ade-
quate transportation facilities for the
crops.-Princeton Union.
Mothers day was quite generally
observed yesterday, but the movement
for Fathers day seems to find it diff
cult to acquire momentum. As long
as father works and pays the bills
everybody else seems satisfed-St.
Paul Dispatch.
As a result of judicious advertising
of the advantages Minnesota offers to
settlers nearly two-thirds of all the
immigrant cars which were hauled
by Northwestern roads this spring
were bound for points in Minnesota.
A few years ago nearly all cars were
bound for Canada and other points
in the West. As President Hill pre-
dicted, "Minnesota's turn has come"

The session of the legislature is
ended and Governor Eberhart has
been well tried again. The News is
satisfied that he stood the ordeal well,
and that he is a larger man now than
he was when the legislature assem-

with him, and may not always do SO
in the future, but we do not hesitate
to tell facts and to give credit for
faithful service when it is rendered.
Gov. Eberhart is much larger than
many of the men in public life today.

What seems a justified wall is going

RURAL DEVELOPMENT.

At the weekly luncheon or the Butllng-

President Powell presided. Professor
HIS told of some of the faults which
now existed and suggested means of
overcoming them In closing he gave six
rules which If followed would help much
toward the progress of the farmer in this
county.
Professor Hills pointed to the fact that
the agricultural college was doing all
in its power to aid the farmers of this
neignborhood. but had been crippled in
the past by lack of funds for propaganda
work. Most Of the money received by
the institution was tied up 20 that it
was not available for tine purpose Of
going directly to the farmer and the
/ state appropriation was not available UNI
/ til July of this year. The Burlington
merchants should be active in co-operat-
.nG with the farmer. tut they have as
get done l!tu" in this direction. The
agricultural interests Of the county are

THE SEAMEN'S BILL.
Notifications NnGe 10 Meet Conditions
Like Those on Lake Chnupiaia.

Through the efforts of Senators billing
ham and Page, tn" scamens bill, which
passed the United States Senate few
days ago, was deprived of the features
which would In amy way affect Lake
'hamplain navigation. and thus in
directly prevented a raise in rates for
passenger and freight travel on it's waters
and those of Lake George. The bill is
one of the most radical pieces of naval
legislation which has been presented in
Il long time, and for a while seriously
threatened to raise havoc here
The original bill called for life boats
enough to take care of every passenger
and member of the crew on the boat
and demanded that at least two able
seamen be carried along for the pur-
bose of assisting in the manning of the
BOATS. on some holidays 300 passengers
are carried on the boats and the number
Of small boats to he carried would be
about 80 such as the largest. which are
carried now. Able scamen" are defined
as men who nave served at least three
years on salt water or four and a half
years on the Great Lakes. The COM
panies doing business on these waters
would therefore be obliged to send away
Cor men to act as able soamen.
The men at the head of different marine
ines say that other features Of the bill
will prevent any development of a mcr-
chant marine as the companies cannot
