administered for the first time in the
state next Friday, when Steve Cherka
and Harry Rasico, both convicted OF
wife, murder, will be called upon to

With much feeling, Governor Rails
ton today rebuked two men and
woman, who brought two of Cherka' S
children, Mary, Z: and Philip, 8; to
his office to make final plea for Glenn
ency for the father. The little girl
kissed and fondled the Governors
hand and begged him to save her
father The Governor became angered
and voiced his displeasure at the at
tempt to play on his sympathies in an
effort to induce him to depart from
what he has regarded as his duty.
Fred Gastel, who was with the chill
dren, started to explain the object of
the visit. but the Governor stopped
him with the statement that the Cher
ka case had been closed when he sent
a letter to Warden Fogarty at the
prison refusing to intercede in be-
half of either of the condemned men,
Il can do nothing more" said the
Governor. II must do my duty as
see it." The children soon left the
room and the Governor also declined
to make any further statement.

Scientists observe that the gases which
water holds in solution have a marked
effect on the wear of iron and steel
tubes but if the oxygen is eliminated
the internal corrosion of piping is les-
sened to as much as one-tenth part in
certain cases. Following this method,
the hot. water piping used for central
heating systems can be protected and
will last much longer. At the top of the
hot water pipes is mounted an air sep
arator of suitable design which serves
to remove the dissolved air.

The Bargain.


81. Then, when he had fooled the
people with his lies, what did the Mar
ket Robber do?
3S. He led a good schoolmaster up
into high mountain, pointed down at
the White House, and tempted him,
saying: Promise me to destroy the
Protective Tariff Dixie, and l will help
you win the Presidential election in
1912. so you may live there. Then
from the Treasury at Washington, you
can help yourself to 100000 for your
you are good and destroy that Dixie,
will help you to second term and
100000 more. Meantime, you will have
a Big Stick with which you can
drive Congress like a mule" Then the
schoolmaster said: IF l SO much as
even proposed Free Trade, the people
would defeat me-" Then the Mar
ket Robber said: Don't so much as
even propose it. Enact it, All you
will have to do to be elected is just to
lay everybody's troubles, from bad
corns to bad crops, to Monopoly and
the Tariff Dixie which keeps out my
cargoes of whetstones for American
wits; and my purse and press will do
the rest" Now, the schoolmaster was
so poor and needy that, to make both
ends meet, he had been driven to apply
for Carnegie pension, and here was
an even gamble in a game where the
winner might get a stake of $500, 900;
and what poor but honest schoolmas-
ter could resist temptation like that!

The Momentous Mental Reservation.
80. Then, upon the stump, in the
1912 campaign, what did the school,
master say to the people?
40. In New York City, on October
29, he said:
branches of them-that if this wild-eyed
schoolmaster becomes President we shall
have Free-Trade. No thoughtful
Democrat of the United States has so
much as even proposed Free-Trade.
Do you not suppose Democrats live in
the United States! Do you suppose that
Democrats have come to the conclusion
that they had better pull the house down
about their own ears?"-Quoted in Sem
ator McLean's Speech, Congressional
Record, July 80, 1913.
Now, the people thought the school
master intended to say that, as the peo-
pies butler, he would not leave the
door unbarred for the Market Burgher.
But when they took the schoolmaster
at what they thought was his word,
they did not bear in mind the fact that
the peoples verdict for the schoolmas-
ter meant possible 100000 for him,
the needy. would-be pensioner of Mr..
Carnegie; and so they overlooked a
law principle as old as the world,

SCARED THE LION.
Bravery and Daring Displayed by an
African Woman.

In Hunting the Elephant in Africa
the author, Captain c. II. Stigand, in
telling some lion stories, admits that
there is certain thrill in connection
with the king of the jungle. The So
malls say that lion makes you jump
three times-first, when you hear him
roar secondly, when you unexpectedly
meet his spoor, and thirdly. when you
first sight him. They say that even
bold man is thus frightened three
times by a lion, but after the sudden
shock of seeing him is over he is no
longer afraid And in this connection
he tells us a good story of female hero
ism:
"At village near Fort Mangoche
also in Nyasaland, man was sitting
one night at the door of his hut drum
ming while his wife was cooking food
inside. The hut was an isolated one,
being several hundred yards from the
rest of the village.
Suddenly the woman heard the man
call out, A lion has got me- She took
a burning faeot from the fire, ran out
and smacked the lion in the face. The
astonished animal let go, and she
dragged her husband into the hut and
hastily put up the poles which form
the door. The man died few min
utes after, and the woman sat there
with the dead body.
Presently the lion returned and
scratched gently on the door. This he
repeated several times till it got on
the woman's nerves. At last she could
stand it no longer, so she took another
fagot from the fire, unbarred the door
and fled to the village, leaving the
dead man. The lion then walked into
the hut ana took him"

A TARIFF CATECH|SM, OR THE
MARKET ROBBERS BARGAIN.
Few Points to Bear in Mind While Considering the
Conflicting Claims of the Hour--Protection and Free
Trade Ably Defined by Mr. Benedict
(By Roswell A Benedict in the Ameri-
can Economist).

(By Roswell A. Benedict in the Amerl-
can Economist).
I. What is Protection?
2. 1t is a principle. 1t holds that
home producers alone make and, there
fore, alone own the home market.
8. What is Free Trade?
4. Also principle. 1t holds that
producers abroad should be allowed to
compete for the home market.
5. Who are the Protectionists2
6. Home producers standing by their
title to the home market.
7. Who are the Free Traders?
s. Importers and their pals stealing
the home market from its lawful
owners.
9. Wherein does the work of the Pro-
tectionists and of the Free Traders
differ in effect?
10. The Protectionists make and de-
fend while the Free Traders attack and
destroy home civilization.
II. How do ee-Traders destroy
homo civilization?
II. They destroy home production
which employs the people. and SO sub
stitute violence for industry as a
bread winning craft
13. After all, are not those who pass
Free Trade laws merely scholars,
high minded and pure, moved solely by
pride in the common veal?
IA. No. 1t is not pride but price
which moves them to sell the home
market to the Market Robbers. Under
whatever color or cover, it is still the
Market Robbers silver paid to these,
our Judases, by which we are betrayed.
IS. Who is the Market Robber?
Is. The importer who robs of it's
power to employ home producers the
market made and owned by them.
II. What is the secret of the Market
Robbers power?
49, Market t-robbing booty. His COM
petitor the home producer, is lucky to
get per cent. year from his mine,
forest, farm, factory or fishery. while
the Market Robbers booty may be 100
per cent, big enough to bribe his way
into any market.
19. Why did the Market Robber fight
So hard to break into our market?
20. To steal billions in wages from
our home laborers.
