A srATesmAnLlkE RESOLUTION

There is to be a socialist in the next congress. His name is London He halls from New Yorks East Side, and enjoys the distinction of having fought Tammany successfully This by of introduction. What follows might emanate from congressman-eect of any other party community such other patriot had the wisdom to utter it.
 "l expect to speak only important occasions, Mr. London 'I expect to get fair play. I win have my say, and never abuse the privilege"
 If i3i other congressmen would make the same pledge end stick it. the sixtyfourth congress would be
 wonderfully efficient and expeditions body of Legislators and the Congressional Record might be short and inter osting enough to justify occasional perusa
 And yet there would still be the senate to reckon with. And what sefrespecting senator would ever promise haye his say and abuse the privilege?

But reserve supply Of feed for bad

But reserve supply of feed for bad

every year. It is here that the silo

Mr.. Stockwell believes there IS good
money to be made in the wheat belt
every winter out of stock run ON the
wheat pasture.
Mr.. StOckwen returned from KAN
sas City Thursday we'll satisfied with
the returns from his shipment of
lambs. He bought them last Octo-
Der for $3.50 per 100 pounds, and at
the time they averaged 81 pounds
per head. He sold them ON the Kan
sas City market Wednesday at $3.50
a hundred, and they weighed out 70
pounds each, which means a gain
over the original cost of over $3.50
per head. Mr.. Stockwell fed silage
for about 80 days before shipping and
earlier in the winter had them on the
wheat pasture. He believes others
can do the same, but the siBo is the
keynote and the Insurance policy of
success.

BUSINESS AND POLITICS.

The tariff isn't working out the
way it was advertised to work. It Is
surprising its friends as well as lts
foes. During the debates preceding
its passage Republicans confidently
predicted that 40 soon as the lower
schedules were effective tn country
would be flooded with cheap goods
that would gl1t the market and close
our milk. The Democrats admitted
there would be considerable increase
OF imports, but the effect would be
stimulating rather than depressing,
and the cost Of living 20 the consum-
ers would drop. They also CONTEND
ed that the Increase In imports at
a lower duty would more than make
up for the loss Of revenue CEASED
by lowering the duties. The first
two months of the tariffs operations
showed both parties mistaken The
flood of imports hasn't appeared.
Customs house records for November
and December show fewer imports
than for September and October, the
last two months under the Repubn-
can tariff, and fewer for the cores
ponding months Of 1912. Ocean trans
portadon companies that made great
preparations for carrying an enor-
nous amount Of goods into this co0n-
ty, are complaining of dull times and
idle bottoms. The cost Of living has
not dropped. On the other hand the
steel mills of the country are putting
on more men and starting plants that
have been idle for several months.
The boot and shoe industry annOunc-
es it is prepared to meet all compe-
titiol and even increase It's markets.
The purchase of raw cotton by Amer
ican textile mills for delivery during
the first four months of this year al
ready exceeds by 10000 bales the
record of last year, and the number
Of active spindles In these mills at
present is the greatest ever known.
There is no use to attempt to onalyze
the why of these things, but this
fact is sure, they prove that an arti-
ficial tariff wall does not necessarily
mean the highest prosperity, nor It's
removal mean a collapse Of all indus
try. They also prove that some politi
clans do. not know much about bust.

United States for thirty-three years
and every year they have been bigger
and better than before. In all that
time Mr.. Robbins, whose show ap-
pears in WOODSTOCK, on TUES
DAY, SEP 18th has prided himself
especially on the splendid animal acts
which are always one feature of the
show. This year the Thompson troupe
of performing elephants occupies a
prominent place on the program, and
the feats performed by the big pachy-
derms are enough to astonish ALL
That such big and apparently I'M
wiedly animals should be able to
dance, play baseball and do other
difficult feats seems impossible, but
this is what they really do. twice each
day. They are interesting animals to
observe, other than in the ring, too,
for Eva, the giantess of the troupe
daily does all the work of moving
wagons about the show lot, ard other
heavy work, which it would take a

The cleverest bareback riders. aer'

before her marriage, of Lancaster, Pa. 4,
returned on the second instant from
a tour in Europe, covering the princi-
pal sites of England. Scotland, 'Hol-

Italy. Because OF the terrible war
now raging the last part of the
tour as planned could not be followed
through Switzerland, France and
Belgium, with the intention of sailing
for home on August 20 from Antwerp
in Belgium, the movement OF troops
and supplies and the fighting in Bel
gium and France preventing. The
party, consisting OF teachers and
graduates of the New England Con-
seryatory of Music, Boston, and
some friends, divided at Naples,
Italy, four returning by an Italion
ship and Miss Whitmore and others
later by the British steamer Car
pathia." On the voyage the captain
thought it necessary to change by
painting the rings on the tunnels, or
smokestacks, of the vessel from the
English colors black and red to gray,
but after all done the ship was chased
by a German war vessel four days be.
fore landing at New York. The party
met many of the experiences related
bv the daily press as coming to the
thousands of citizens of the United
States wfo we're caught in Europe by
the war, but Miss Whitmore had SO
ARRANGED thai she received money
promptly through the American Elk
press Company and the cutting OF the
plan of tour and the enforced stop ir

and of the social conditions of Rome

tors shows that 266 new policies were

amounted to "a, 856.25. All of which
were fully and promptly paid, easing
a balance in the hands of the Treas
urer of s3,096.75 and s427.00 of un

constitution were made: Barns with
shingle roofs must now be classified
in Sd class instead of the I'd class as

ABLE TO GIVE FATHER DETAILS

Details OF the controversy at neal
Mount Clifton, Shenandoah County
Saturday evening when Wilbur Min
i nick's skull was crushed by q scale
weight were made known by William
Minnick, father of the injured man,
after a consultation with his son in
Rockingham Memorial Hospital. Mr..
Minnick left in the afternoon for
/, Woodstock to obtain warrant for
the arrest of Clarence Phillips oil
Mount Clifton, whom Minnick &C
cuses of having thrown the weight.
According to the story told by the
young man, the trouble followed an
argument on Statewide prohibition
in which he had no part. The argu
meut became heated when someone
told Of Mr.. Olinger, of near Quicks-
burg. refusing to let one of his small
children, who was desperately ill.
have drink Of whiskey on the ad-
vice of a physician.
REFUSED TO GIVE CHILD WHlSk Ely.
The physician is reported to have
said that he had done all he could
and that the only other thing that
might help was little whiskey. Mr..
Oliuger is quoted as replying that he
would never consent to his child TAX
ing a drink of whiskey even to save
its life.
Young Minnick broke into the argu-
ment at this point. saying that any
man who would not give his child
whiskey under such conditions was "a
fool" Clarence Phillips, brother
in.law of Mr. Ollnger, overheard the
remark and told Minnick not to re-
peat what he had said. Minnick did
repeat his assertion but had not more
than finished speaking when he was
struck on the side of the head with
the scale weight.
HAD TROUBLE BEFORE.
Minnick is nineteen years old and
Phillips thirty-fve. They are said to
have had trouble before and that this
was the outbreak of the previous
difficulty.
The elder Minnick who is reported
10 be well-to-do, said yesterday that
1e intended to have Phillips prose-
,uted ito the limits" His son was in
10 shape to make statement regard
ng the affair until yesterday. The
Joy was unconscious for several
hours after he was struck and was
operated on Immediately after he was
brought to the hospital in Harrison
burg early Sunday morning. Pieces
IF the skull were removed to relieve
pressure on the brain Witnesses of
