Talk OF Friction.

1t was only few days after Sec
rotary Redfield declared his 4 opposi-
ton to any modification in the tariff
that the president declared in favor
Of the repeal OF the free sugar clause
and took under consideration the
placing OF duty on wool. This mark
ed difference has given rise to the
report Of friction between the presi-
dent and the secretary of commerce
and also has led to talk of further
cabinet changes, but there has been
no specific indication that Mr.. Red
field may be asked to retire, because
he is not in accord with the presi-
dent on this big topic. Secretary Red
field at least is consistent; it is the
president who has reversed his posi-

Ring, local agent Of the 0. S. L., there
have been about 1870 carloads of sheep

there had been enough bands driven
into this country from towns along
the line and from the other side of
the river, to bring the total up to
nearly $4,000 head of sheep. That is
the estimate, besides the hundred to
five hundred head which had been
kept on the, farms, and owned by
farmers who are In the sheep business

Oscar Figman in "A Pair Of Sixes.v


The Lavering theatre will have an
attraction next Thursday evening, Oc-
tober rs, with Oscar Figman and New
York company, in "a Pair of Skies"
which has been anticipated with much
interest, for it is now acknowledged
the world over as one of the funniest
farces ever seen on the English-speak-
ing stage. 1t has been running for
nearly year at the Longacre the
atre, New York, and it is the reigning
success in the West No play has ever
received more unstinted praise for its
bright and amusing story, clever dia-
logue and skillfully conceived situa-
tons. 1t is in three acts and is by
Edward Peple, the we'll known author
Of 1.-THE Littlest Rebel" and 1.-THE

The curtain rises on the Office of the
Eureka Digestive Pill company. 1t
appears to be a nice orderly office
with the attractive gum-chewing typ
list, until the two partners enter and
begin to quarrel. The one, T. Boggs
John, who runs to fat in figure, claims
he is the blood and brains OF the pill
business, and the other, George B. Net

"A PAIR OF SKIES"

Like all things which succeer, the
title, "A Pair of Sixes,' seems to be
just the exact name to fit the SUI
premely funny farce which will be
seen at the Lavering Thursday, Oc-
tober IS, with Oscar Figman and New
York company. 1t refers merely to
the incident in the play which caused
two partners to disagree and start a
whirl of fun which is now being en-
joyed the country over. Beyond that,
the title has nothing to do with what
has been termed our great American
indoor card game. There is, of course,
a queen of hearts in the cast She is
mighty big card and is probably the
only instance where lone queen beat
a pair of skies.

woolmen in their constitu-
encies. Thus far there has been little
direct pressure on the president to
assent to duty on lumber, although
the trade commission has made an
exhaustive study of the lumber in
dustry, and doubtless would not OPP
pose lumber duty if the administra-
ton should suggest such thing. In
deed, it is quite possible that a ma
jority of the commission would re-
commend a duty on lumber if given
the opportunity to make a recon-
mendation.

Redfield Opposed.

The trade commission is subordi-
nate to the secretary of commerce.
Secretary Redfield is opposed to any
change in the Underwood tariff, or
was opposed up to the time the pres
ident advocated retention of duty
on sugar. About that, however, the
secretary of commerce was not con-
suited and he naturally must accept
the expressed view of the president.
Because OF the investigation made by
the trade commission, Secretary Red
field may be consulted il the presi-
dent considers the advisability of
placing duty on lumber, but the
president has already announced that
the trade commission is. for all prac-
tical purposes, tariff commission
and having taken that stand the presi-
dent must consider the commissions
report and recommendations, regard
less Of the views Of Secretary Red
field may hold in conflict with the
views of the commission,
