SHY LITTLE MERCURY.

8. During the last week or ten days
of February, the shy little planet Mer.
curry will be visible, for on the first of
March Mercury reaches it greatest
westward distance from the sun as seen
from the earth. and as this is unusually
great it will afford an unusually good
opportunity to catch the fleet footed
one. This must be done in the morn
ing dawn, when Mercury will precede
the sun in rising and car be seen above
the eastern horizon. The same privi-
lege can be enjoyed through the first
week in March. Mercurv's path is

Simple Arithmetic.

eral Treasury's povertyf
It is not.
What is responsible?
The Wilson. Underwood. Simmons
Free Tariff Law.
How do you know
Because the imports into the United
States during 1915 81, 800, 600, 00W have
been practically the same as were the
imports in 1919 1878, 900. 0O0). In
other words, the imports in 1915 during
"the war" and Free Trade" were al.
most identically the same in value as
the imports during 1912 under PRO
lection" and no war at all. But this
same volume of imports yielded an
average duty rate of IS per cent under
Protection" in 1919 and produced
$326, $40, 900; while this same volume Of
imports in 1915 under Free Trade"
has yielded an average duty rate of only
II per cent and produced only $19S, 606,-
600.
If the average protective" rate Of
1919 were applied to the total imports
Of 1915 the Treasury of the United
States would have collected in excess of
1926, 000 600 more tariff revenues dur
ing 1915 than was the case under Free
Trade" This little item of 1926, 0OO,-
900 represents the difference between
surplus and deficit. This loss is the
reason why the congressional Demo.
caacy is forced to resort to direct do
nestle taxation of all sorts and descrip-
tions in order to make both ends meet.
The situation is as plain as the nose on
your face.
The war in Europe has economically
affected as in many ways. 1t Is direct.
ly responsible for our present prosperity
first, through the munitions business
which 1t has created; and, second,
through the partial protection" which
it has yielded through reduction of
foreign manufacturing activities. But
war in Europe" is not responsible for
the fiscal troubles of Woodrow Wilson's
administration. Free Trade" is the
controlling factor in the latter situa-
ton. No amount of congressional
hypocrisy and presidential assembling
can hide this truth from the people.
The Wilson. Underwood Simmons law
is rank and abject failure. In this
respect 1t is exactly like every other
Democratic tariff law that was ever
written. Furthermore. 1t will continue
to be fiscal and economic impossibility
for the Democratic party to write a
sound tariff law until it forsakes Free
Trade" and the people should not be
fooled into thinking that the Democracy
has forsaken Free Trade" simply be.

6. On the 14th occurs very close
conjunction of the two planets Venus
and Jupiter. which may be viewed in
the west, shortly after sunset, either
the 18th or the 18th. The centers will

these are the two brightest orbs in the
heavens; even now they are steadily
approaching, and when they stand to-
gether they will almost appear as a
double star of more than first magni-

Venus, when at her brightest. is eleven
times as brilliant as Sirius, which in
turn is five times as bright as any fixed
star seen in the latitude.

INCREASED ACTIVITY IN
BALKANS IS REPORTED
BRITAIN WALLS sEAcoAsT
TO ALIENS

London, Feb. 1.-THE new Home
Office rules regarding aliens. which
go into effect today are causing per-
turbation among neutrals resident in
Great Britain. The general tenor of
the orders makes almost all the sea
coast prohibited Arrears for aliens as
we'll as districts having military i'm
portance, including the neighborhood
of Londons docks.
The main effect will be to make it
necessary for any alien wishing to
visit these places to obtain a special
permit from the police. while all will
be required to carry an identification
book containing photograph, name,
address and place Of birth. This
book will be stamped when the owner
goes to fresh locality. The orders
are drafted so as to apply to friendly,
aliens of all nationalities. The
American Consulate has been inform
ed officially that as yet no date has
been fixed for their application to
Americans. BECAUSE of the undoubted
mconVenie.hce they would cause ID
'"' '-rge American colony, there is
7snelr.l expectation that no such steps
, will be taken.

THEY KNEW HIM IN PENSACOLA

Pensacola. Feb. 14.-Captain
Berg. in charge of the prize crew
which has the liner Appam in Gus
tody, according to local shipping
men, has paid visits to Pensacola a
number of times, as skipper, aboard
the German steamship Gamma,
which loaded here several times, and
which came here with kainit once
or twice from Germany.
His picture in the New York
Herald was recognized by a pilot a
few days ago, and later search
among shipping records, shows that
the Gamma, with Captain Berg
aboard, was frequent caller at
Pensacola before the European war.
There are two steamers having the
name of Gamma listed in the Mari
time Record. but the German Gam
ma gives Berg as the captain The
other Gamma is Dutch, and she is
in command of Captain Tennsma,
also known to local shippers and
those who have been connected with
shipping and importing offices for
some years. The German Gamma is
now in port at Rotterdam. where she
will likely remain for some time yet
The other steamer was last reported
as passing MADEIRA en- route to
Buenos Ayres from Amsterdam.

Athens dispatch says that after the
arrival of Franco British reinforce

proceeding up the railway, concen-

are said to have occupied third of
Albania.
1t is unoflicially stated that when
Parliament meets tomorrow a new
war credit of one billion, two hun
dred and fifty million dollars will be
asked. This will bring the total up
to nine billion, five hundred and six

LITTLE HOPE FOR
CONTINENTAL ARMY

Washington, Feb. 14-Official cir
cles are filed with rumors regarding
the fate of President Wilson's plan
for Continental army There is the
very best authority for the statement
that the plan which the House Com
mittee on Naval Affairs has in mind
rather includes comprehensive legis-
lation for the National Guard, includ-
ing federal pay. It is further predict
ed that Congress will enact such legis.
lation, and that the guard has an ex.
cellent chance of being increased to
a strength of 100000 to 100000 men
as a result. Indications also are that
the committee will add materially to
the regular army, increasing it to
100000 men or more. Sentiment is
pronounced, too, in the committee for
the shortening of the enlistment term.
One plan which finds much favor is
for such an enlistment contract as
will provide that when an enlisted
man has become properly trained for
the service he shall be allowed to end
his active service. This would result
in many quitting the active service
after one year. and in some cases it
might result in men passing to the
reserve in six months.

OVER MILLION TOURISTS IN
FLORIDA THIS YEAR

Jacksonville, Feb. IA With ev-
cry southbound train bringing hun
dreds of additional tourists to lor-
ida, indications are that the total
number of these visitors for the
present winter will exceed million,
J. A. Won Dohlen, Florida passen-
ger agent for the Nashville, Chatta-
Eooga and st. Louis railroad, is re-
sponsible for this statement and Sat-
urday he presented figures to back
his contention.
The total annual tourist business
for normal year approximates
about 100000 visitors, according to
the best estimates and don't be-
lieve anyone will disagree with me
when | say that this is more than a
normal year" he said. Every week
| receive reports from the different
territories from which the Dixie
Flyer and the Dixie Limited trains
draw their winter travellers to Flor
ida and the comparisons with pre-
ceding normal years show that there
was an increase of about IS per cent
in the sale of through tickets during
the last week in January, which I
think can rightly be called the first
week of the winter migration.
"If the reports received by the
other railroads operating into this
territory from the East and West
and intermediate territory show up
as we'll, it seems to me that to say
the total business done this year
will exceed a million people is a
conservative estimate February and
the first part of March is the time
during which our biggest business is
done and the daily arrivals, which
are so large as to necessitate extra
car movements on all through trains,
appear to contribute as proof that
Florida is going to look back on the
present season as a record breaker.
The amount of money brought
here by the visitors is a big consid-
eration Some of the best estimators
have calculated that the average
tourist spends about Sc a day and.
if you estimate the number at a
million persons the money turned
loose in Florida will average at least
$4,000, 900, which will be consider
ably augmented as there are many
