TARIFF ON SUGAR ASSURED

The announcement by Secreta-
ry of the Treasurer McAdoo, with
the approval OF President Wilson,
that the retention of the tariff on
sugar will be recommended Ia
Congress, makes the sugar inter
est feel that the tariff will remain
as one of the best revenue peodu-
Ger. and those who seem to be in
q position to know. feel that the
tariff on sugar will remain for all
times to come.
1t is also recommended that a
tariff be put on rice and lumber.
The people of every congression-
al district should protest against
imposition of war taxes in time of
peace. A tariff on the home pro-
ducts that need protection is where
we should get our revenues.

Oh the unusual cass of the linked
twins born to Mrs. A. Foreman

of the girls died Saturday morn
ing and 1t is feared that while the
physical condition of the other is
comparatively favorable, that it
will be impossible to save her life.
The twins, which weighed about
Six pounds each when born, were
linked together by piece of bone
extending across the side of each
skull. An operation was consi-
dered but the idea was later aban-
doned as 1t WAS feared that the
bone was hollow and that the
brains of the two children were
also Joined. With the death OF
Que Of the twins, however it is pro-

be attempted in an effort TO save
the life of the remaining child.
