Tariff Hits tho Coast.

Republicans in California are or
ganizing for a vigorous campaign on
the tariff issue, with view to elect
ing Republican delegation to the
house in November. California was
a great beneficiary Of the Payne
Aldrich tariff. and It's citrus-fruit In
dustry developed remarkably, not
withstanding the long haul to the At
lantic seaboard. But under the new
tariff the competition of foreign fruits
is severely felt. and there has been
corresponding revulsion of feeling in
California In favor Of a return to
high protection. The primary regis
trations of the state show plu-
rality of $4,000 Republican voters.

40 YEARS RETAILING DEACON
So Long Ago He Had Broken Out, He
Had Entirely Forgotten All
About II.

Houston, Tex.-James McGowen, an
aged negro, was the most surprised
man In the world when he was ar
rested in Cold Springs, San Jacinto
county, for breaking Jail. He knew
there had been mistake, for he had
not been in jail, and, besides, he was
respected and deacon in the church.
Then he was shown warrant which
charged him with breaking jail at Cold
Springs 40 years ago.
II was 80 long ago that MCGOWAN
had forgotten all about the incident.
Nevertheless, the deacon was brought
to Houston by Deputy Sheriff l. J.
Patrick and placed in Jail until his
trial can be held.

Shows Dissatisfaction.

The Iowa election shows that the
Democrats are losing strength while
the Republicans are gaining. The
percentage Of votes received by Hull
Is much greater. compared with the
vote of 1910. than the percentage OF
votes received by Vollmer. The re-
suit shows decided trend back to
the Republican party. and inasmuch
as the election was fought on the
tariff issue. the conclusion is inevi-
table that the people are not salts
fed with the Democratic position on
the tariff.

Railroad Commission Calls Meeting.

Railroad Commission Calls Meeting.
The state railroad commission has
set March rs as a date on which all
the telephone companies in the state
are invited to come to Lansing for a
general conference with the commits
sion. with a view Of getting better &C.
quainted and having a better under
standing of the laws regulating tele-
phone companies.
There are 326 Incorporated tele-
phone companies in the state and $50
not Incorporated, total Of 1,277.
Many of the unincorporated compa-
MES are rural lines and have little
business except among certain rural
districts, but the commission has its
troubles with such companies the
same as the larger ones.
For instance: All telephone COM
panies In the state are required to
make a report to the state railroad
commission. More than $50 telephone
companies have not even answered
the letters sent out by the commits
sion recently.
There appears to be no unity among
the telephone companies. Many of
the informal companies come from
subscribers Of the smaller companies
and the commission feels that more
harmony can prevail and better un-
derstanding arrived at between the
commission and companies II an or
ganization among the telephone COM
panies can be perfected.
In order to establish certain stand
ards OF construction and service. Il In
necessary that the telephone compa-
MES have better understanding Of
the laws. The commission wants the
views of the telephone companies as
to what standard of construction and
service should be arrived at from a
representative organization.
Wisconsin Is now attempting to for
mulate standard among its tele-
phone companies and is meeting with
success. Alta recent meeting of sew
eral state railroad commissions in
Chicago. Chairman Hemans attended
the same, and the proposed confer
ence called March rs is the result Of
what was learned at the conference.
The commission desires that all
companies in the state, whether con-
nected with the Bell interests or in
dependent, to be at the conference.
Kansas has such an organization DOW

Denmark.

II Is reported from Copenhagen
that Anton Rosen, a prominent Dan
fish architect, has finished plans for
the building which will be erected
at the San Francisco exposition from
a fund collected by Danish-Americans.
The building will be modelled on the
famous castle of Hamlet's town, Elsi'
more, and, like its historical proto-
type, will be situated on the sea. The
building will not be used to house
exhibits, which will be placed In an
other structure erected by the Danish
government, but will be used as a
headquarters for Danish-Americans
and their friends visiting tho exposi-
ton.
Over $4,000 has already been
raised by Danish-Americans and they
will not rest before the fund con-
tains $4,000.
A Copenhagen dispatch says that
DIR. Carl Jacobsen, Denmark's great art
patron, Just before his death, confided
to a friend that he intended to create
Danish Versailles, and the publica-
ton of the plan has led to the deter
mination to carry out his ideas as a
memorial of his services to the ma
ton. The large sum to make the plan
q success will be available from the
Carlsberg fund, which was instituted
by Jacobsen and to which he donated
many millions for the encouragement
and promotion Of art In Denmark.

Moving to This State.

That many farmers are selling out
their farms In Illinois and buying or
renting farms In Michigan is attested
by reports which filter in from day to
day in the ONCE of the state live stock
commission. All cattle and horses that
come into the state have to be In
spected and health certificates given
and filed with the state veterinarian
and the live stock commission.
While no definite number can be as.
certained from the reports, there are
many who are leaving their old homes
and moving into the state. They get
big prices for land in Illinois and are
enabled to pick good farms here for
about half as much.

public buildings or exits changed or
constructed SO as to comply with the

The bureau has, during the last

requests for information regarding

which should be constructed depends
great deal on the character and
