q Getting on with the days work is
what pleases best the serious minded
president of the United States. This
fact is set forth in a notable analysis
of the presidents mental characters
tics, published in the Daily News on
Saturday, by one of the leading jour
nalists in Washington. The student
recluse of the White house, who in
his high position has had to meet men,
has discovered that men are rather
well meaning as rule, and so he has
learned to like them. He labors eff
fectively with them because of his sim
certify and plain dealing.
Especially Illuminating Is the little
speech that the president made to
those who were present when he sign.
ed the new tariff act the other evening.
Having Just completed a great achieve
ment he did not for a moment throw
off the harness at which his shoulders
had been training for months. Not
relaxation but renewed effort was
what he urged upon those who re.
joiced over the happy termination OF
the work on the new tariff. The task
of securing banking and currency re
form, the president said, required at
once the faithful service Of the law
makers.
In the moment of triumph, with the

these products is directly affected by
the protective tariff
High protectionists," declared MI.
Pepper, have used the tariff to fool
and despoil the farmer of his hard
earned gains. Behind the tariff rae
Of % cents on wheat, 10 cents on
corn, IL and IL cents on wool, rates
which have never added one whit or
price or value to the product, pluto
cratic tariff beneficiaries have per-
sistently plucked the farmer on all
that he had to buy. He has been fore
ed to buy all that he needed in a highly
protected market, while he sold his
surplus in competition with the world.
The home market, in which the
farmer has had to buy his agricul-
tural implements, is dominated and
largely controlled by combination and
monopoly; the market in which he
buys his hardware and iron goods is
dominated and largely controlled by
the steel trust; his clothing he must
buy of the wooden trust; if he wants
sugar, he must buy 1t at sugar-trust
prices; if he wants leather, harness,
or shoes, he must again pay monopoly
prices.
while humbugging the farmer
! with few agricultural rates which
never pan out, our republican friends,
through exorbitant tariff exactions,
have persistently fleeced him on every
article he buys.
! Looking a. these effects of repub
lican tariffs, what can be more farcial
than to hear men-especialy so-calleo
progressive republicans-wail over the
| farmer? The tariffs made by their
party have plundered him for years
and they now grieve sorely that theil
day of plumber is over. The cry goes
out that the farmer will be ruined, but
the real cause of the commotion is the
fear that the crime against the farmel
is to be fully exposed and the guilty
parties punished.
"The democratic tariff bill compel
the plunderers to take their hands on
Of the pockets of the farmer and leav,
him to enjoy the proceeds of his toll.

This Is said to be the first great

OF II has been used as an interior finish
In public buildings. In the west a no

THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS OF ALL.

OF all the offenses to society that go
unchecked in this city, the most ou.-
rageous OF all is the practice of scoun-
drels in attacking young ladies on the
streets at nights. II there is anything
next TO criminal assault that would
provoke mob vengeance, such out
RACES will lead to It IL It is no. stopped.
The coward who will do such a thing
is entitled to no consideration or
mercy, and one OF these times he will
meet with punishment such as he will
remember.
There have been numerous instances
OF late OF young women being pursued
by this reprobate and seized by the
arm at some poorly lighted part
OF the residence section. A few even.
ings ago young lady was pulled
from a bicycle by one Of these night
providers.
People all over the city have become
thoroughly aroused over the escapades
OF this degenerate in human type, and
the indignation is running so high
that II he is caught no one can answer
for the consequences.
While there Is no disposition TO in
cite lawlessness. regardless OF the
provocation, the statutes could not b,
too severe in dealing with fiends o.
this character.

His Vacation.

He worked for years and sighed because
He could not have a holiday;
He nourned what his corSlition was,
He longed to put his work away
And then, with care left far behind,
Go forth to play, with peace OF mind.
n
He envied other mon who went
To fish beneath the shadows cool;
He envied them the days they spent
Released from Duty's rigid rule.
And thought how happy he would be
For but a single day care-free.

At last his glad old wish came true;
He put his wearing tasks away.
And left his office. feeling blue.
And fearing that he ought to stay
He spent three sad weeks feeling sor
To think they would so soon be Ger.

to be Of considerable interest, as
representing indomitable enterprise
against difficulties. The country in
which the marble deposits occur is ex-
tremely rough and precipitous, and for
a long time was inaccessible because
Of a lack Of transportation facilities.
Large sums had to be expended be-
fore the stone could be got out and
brought to market. Up to 1907. when
