THROUGH GREAT TRIAL

TnriR Discussion.


Tariff Discussion.
AHlde from the debate OF the more
sedate journals, all the others arc
entering Into the tariff discussion
One recalls the old saying: "What
Manchester does today, England
does tomorrow. The Globe discusses
Misunderstanding; It's decline and
fall. The action OF Manchester was
Its says. u staggering blow to thu
cause OF free trade" The walls oil
the free trade citadel have crumbIed
it adda, and even Manchester has
turned to protective tariff system.
Tho attitude OF the government II
awaited with great interest In view
OF the agitation over the Manchester
resolutions. The chancellor of the
exchequer. Mr.. MdKenna, will have
the final say as to whether an ad val
orcm tariff will be put In operation.
and the initial tariff duties he pro-
posed and carried last fall lead 20
the belief that he will adopt more OF
the same kind. His lieutenant. Mr..
MontaEn, financial secretary OF the
treasury. has given some intimation
or what WAS likely to come.
THE topic OF enormous Importance
Is tho adjustment Of our fiscal syB-
tcm." said MIR. Montagu. Free
traders and tariff reformers all agree
that the old economic relations be-
tween different parts OF the globe
will be altered by the war. l may
say II Is not part OF Liberalism not
TO recognize altered conditions and
circumstances. and to revise and per-
haps strengthen ourselves IN respect
to any new conditions which may
arise"
This Is taken as a pretty clear in
dicatlon OF the government positioC
for tariff revision to meet new coil
ditions," and with the Manchester
agitation both the public and the
government seem well on their way

BOY HURT IN RUNAWAY
Verne belong Thrown From Buggy
on z. X. Track

Verne belong, a student of the To-
cal high school, whose home Is south
west of the city, was painfully in
jured last evening in a runaway &C
cident. Young belong was driving
home from school or First avenue
west, when his horse became fright
ened, and started running down the
c., B. & Q. tracks. belong was
thrown out of the buggy and struck
his head upon a rail. The forehead
was badly bruised, an elbow wrenched
and arms and hands scratched and
bruised.
The boy was taken to the Oska-
loosa Hospital, in an unconscious
condition, but soon after arriving
there, he regained consciousness.
Just how bad he has been injured is
not fully determined, the examination
failing to reveal internal injuries.
Few saw the accident, and are able
to tell just what happened. That
the boy was not more seriously in
jured is remarkable, for the force
with which he was thrown against
the rail was terrific. 1t is said that
the horse stepped on him in passing,
but no bruises have been found on
the person.

Lengthy Discussions are INDUCED
in by City Council

drawn out session Monday evening,
the second regular of the month, and
the greater part of the time was spent
in caucus, adjourned from the council
chamber and behind closed doors, to
consider the status of the work on
the septic tank, sewage disposal plant
and sewer extension northeast of the
city. The contractor had asked for
a statement OF work completed, esti-
mated, and city engineer Horace
Hawkins did not desire to give this
unless so ordered by council resolu-
ton or instruction. Both Messrs.
Hawkins and the contractors agent,
M. Tibbetts, were called into the

Mr.. Wray has been PERSISTENT in his !
effort to secure relief for the place, !
out thus far has not been able to OBJ
ain anything that even looks like an
)rder for action on the part of the !
council. The city engineer was told
o investigate, to make estimate and
eport and he was ready to make re-
'ort Monday evening but for some
eason as soon as Mr.. Wray left the
chamber, the subject was
Iropped and nothing further was &C
;omplished in his direction.
Messrs. r. d. Walton, H. H. Rose
rock and F. E. Hyett representing
he Fair association, appeared before
he council to explain their needs, the
esult of which was the ordering of
new fire hydrant.

horized and ordered for the north
ide of E avenue between Third and :
