ELECTION A GRAND VICTORY
SAYS BURLESON

Washington, Nov. 5.-"The cleo
ton is an overwhelming victory all
along the line" declared Postmaster
General Burleson after a conference
at the White House yesterday.
''It is the first time is the history
of the country with one exception
that the party in power carried the
House after revising the tariff" he
said, "and this one exception occur
red with the passage of the Dingley
tariff when Republicans had the adj
vantage of a general patriotism caus-
ed by the Spanish war. Then they
only won out by a majority of twelve
members in the house"
"Our majority in the house." said

Hayden Bell, assistant states at

Hoyne," and this action of today will
end in the biggest scandal that has
hit Cook county in years"
The inquiry is practically an open
grand jury hearing. The bill of in
formation filed does not name any
persons. What it does, however, is
to throw open the whole tax system

This Hoyne move today has big
meaning when connected. with the
passionate declaration made by Mar
garet Haley before three different
audiences of teachers last week
Miss Haley said:

edge of robbery of millions Of dol
lars through the tax system. And 1
say to you that if the people of this
city could know what is going on in
the tax offices of Cook county, they
would rise up in revolution
At the same time Miss Haley said
she had information directly from
men in the coal business that one
large coal company, which is practi-
caIly the coal trust of Chicago, has
for many years dominated the Board
of Review and the Board of Asses

CHESTNUT STREET OPERA House

CHESTNUT STREET OPERA HOUSE
No play could be more appropriate at
the present time when wave of patriot
ism and self analysis is sweeping over
the American people than THE Ty-
phoon," which depicts the devotion to
country manifest in the Japanese. 1t
will be the Orpheum Players offering at
b. f. Keith's Chestnut Street Opera
House, Philadelphia, for the week of
May Is. When Walker Whiteside pro-
duced this gripping melodrama in New
York he created such sensation that he
was able to continue for long season in
the metropolis of big houses and follow
with two starring seasons on the road.
The play is from a Hungarian source and
was fitted to meet the needs of our stage
by Biron Ongley, the well known direct
or. 1t is the very reversal of such a
story as Madame Butterfly, which shows
the softer side of the Japanese character
as it is represented among home sur
roundings. 1.-THE Typoon" presents the
old Japanese ideal of duty and loyalty
as it shines forth under distressing con-
ditions in foreign country among an
unsympathetic people. Tolerance, a
high cast Japanese, has been sent to
Berlin by the AIikado on an important
| mission. He meets there woman of
doubtful reputation named Ilona ker-
ner. She is.attracted by his strange per-
sonality and impassiveness and decides
that either she must conquer him or he
must conquer her, despite the fact that
she has pledged herself to a German
artist, Ernest Lindner. Tokeramo is
warned that he is endangering his mis-
sion by number of his japanese friends
and principally by Joshokawa, the old
councillor Nevertheless he persists in
his infatuation until Iona has won him.
When he admits it to her, she laughs at
him in mockery, whereupon, seized with
sudden brutal impulse, he takes her
by the throat and strangles her to death
When his Japanese associates learn what
he has done, each clamors for the privi-
lege of assuming the responsibility for
the crime so Tokeramo's mission may
not be interfered with. The choice, how
ever, falls upon Hironari, an untried boy,
who though perfectly innocent, is felt to
be less of loss to the nation than To-
keramo would be. In the last act, To-
keramo finishes his work and overcome
by remorse and strain, dies just as he
has confessed his crime to Lindner.

The foreign commerce of the port of
New York for April showed gain OF
I'll, 600, 900 in merchandise imports and
decrease of 81, 100000 in exports, as
compared with the corresponding month
in 1918. The March statement showed
an increase of $12, DOC, 600 in imports and
loss of the same amount in exports.
Despite this heavy increase in imports
the revenue receipts are only a trifie
larger.
In two months America has lost $685.
000, 900 in export business. 1t has not
only failed to sell this much abroad, but
it has had exactly the same amount of
domestic business turned over to foreign
ers. The gross loss of American mer-
chants has been SAG, 900, 900. They have
their trade taken away from them at
home and abroad. There is no increase
in revenue to make up for it. There is
no decrease in the cost of living to COM
pensate for it. 1t is loss, total loss.
We have a competitive tariff that pre-
vents Americans from competing. Facts
knock all the theory in the world To
pieces. In addition, Congress is prepar-
ing to decapitalize our industries. We
shall have to fight German trade dread
naughts with gunboats. We have
thrown aside every safeguard of high
wages and we have invited no wages at
all. If this is not an anti-American policy
what is it? The nation would go to war
to prevent such penalization of our enter
prise as our own Congress has put on us.
The results are just beginning to be felt.
The Mexican situation may not be so
vital to us as our own-Pttblic Ledger.
The forty convicts who were taken from
the state prison at Trenton last fall and
given an opportunity for outdoor work
on the states 100 acre farm near Lees
burg, seem to have made good in every
respect. They are not only greatly bene-
fted physically, but have cleared up
about 100 acres of land that are to be
plowed and planted to staple crops this
year. Additional men are to be brought
from the prison next summer to help
with the work. Thus two experiments,
that of the South Jersey farming and
that of the Sussex county roads, appear
to be working out advantageously. The
convicts are happier, healthier and far
more useful than when locked up in
cells. OF course, only the trustworthy,
short-term convicts are allowed such out
door privileges, but if success along these
lines continues it may ultimately mean
the abandonment of the cell system TO
large proportion of the convicts. And
what a humane change this would be-
