Asks Tariff on Beans.

limited Press Leased Wire Service.
WASHINGTON, Oct. ia tariff
OF from two to four cents a pound on
beans to keep out Japanese competi.
ton was asked by California bean
growers before the house ways and
means committee today.
This tariff is necessary because IS
percent of the beans grown in America
come in competition with the Japa'
nese product, which has been com
ing to this country in increased guam
tity during the last few years, Aaron
Sapiro, San Francisco, attorney for
the growers, said.
. Sapiro asserted it cost seven cents
a pound to raise beans, whereas
foreign competition has forced the
price down to six cents, because of
the small labor cost in the orient.
Sapiro claimed that the U. S.
grain corporation has encouraged i'm
ports. Preference was shown for the
foreign products by the corporation,
although there was surplus of beans
in this country at the time, he said.

BERLIN. (By maiL)-It IS now
possible in Berlin to buy a cake Of
soap without mortgaging the old
Ihomesead, without birth certificate,

Saturday night was hardly the kind
of night one would choose for a
swim in the lake.
But sometimes necessity besides
being the mother of invention Is the
mother of lot, of trouble. She acted
like mother-in.Iaw in this instance.
Three men in boat-this is not a
nursery rhyme-were going up the
lake on duck hunting expedition.
Something got the matter with the
propeller and it was case of get out
and get under, or row to shore and
walk home One of the trio stripped
and dlved in under the boat and fixed
the rod, so the duck hunters proceeded
up the river

No one has claimed the yearling
and the two year old heifers which
the police have locked up IN the yard

were found on upper Main street last

they were brought to the station.
There seems to be no claimant for
the animals now, and the police are
