WEST REVOLTS

The Republican Ways and Means
Committee is having serious
trouble with its high tariff pro-
gram and Chairman Fordney was
charged bya middle western group
with proposing to build a non.
scalable tariff wall around the
United States. The entire Min.
nesota delegation, solidly republi-
can, has voted to oppose a tariff
on lumber and claims to represent
the entire middle west and the So
called agricultural bloc.
Five western legislatures, Min
nesota. Wisconsin, Kansas and
Colorado. have all protested a tariff
on lumber. The lumber interests
in general are are not demanding
protection. The eastern manu-
facturers take the view that a high
tariff cripplcs the buying power
OF foreign customers and it is un-
derstood that the large banking
interests have no sympathy with
the high protective policy on ac-
count of international trade con-
ditions. The members of the COM
mittee refused to accept the wool
schedule as written BY a couple of
wooden manufacturers and pre-
sented by Chairman FOrdney.
The tariff is the only definite
policy the republican administra-
ton has advanced SO far, but, as
Mr.. Harding remarks, Govern
ment is a very simple thing after

COTTON CROP SHOWS
SOME IMPROVEMENT
Local Rains Are Beneficial in
Some Portions of the
Cotton Belt

Reports to The Commercial APP
peal, which reports are of the av'
erage date of June 90, indicate
that the cotton crop averaged
rather pronounced improvement
during the month, but the crop is
considerably below the average
for the end of June.
These reports embrace CORE
spondence covering 782 counties
or parishes in the 10 principal cot
ton producing states.
All reports indicate that the
acreage has been very largely re-
duced.
West of the Mississippi river
rains were ample for cotton, and in
some instances excessive, but not
greatly detrimental; temperatures
favorable for cotton. Eastward,
especially in the Atlantics, droutb,
accompanied by high tempera-
lures, was against the growth of
the plant, but a check on boil

serious.
The plant appears to be healthy.
but, in some sections, owing to
lateness, droutb or lack of ferti-
lizer, or to a combination of causes,
is small.
While some localities in Tennes-
see have lacked sufficient rain, the
weather as a rule during the past
30 days has been favorable for
cotton, although not so favorable
for other crops. No boil weevil
is reported except in a few coun-
ties along the Tennessee river,
where the damage so far neglig-

MERCHANT TELLS A
REMARKABLE STORY
Really Sounds Incredible But Well
Known Man Testifies To Truth
OF It.

Writing from Maxeys, Ca, A. J.
Gillen, proprietor of large depart
ment store at that place, says:
have q customer here who was
in bed for three years and did not go
to meal at any time. She had five
physicians and they gave her out.
One bottle Of Tanlac got her up, on
the Second bottle she commenced
keeping housing and on the third she
did all the cooking and housewo rk for
a family of eight''
This sounds really incredible, but it
comes unsolicited from a highly cred.
liable sourse and is copied verbatim
from the letter.
Tanlac is sold in Scotland Neck by
p. T. Whitehead Co., and by leading
druggists everywhere.

Yes, she was an old fashioned mother,
She was bent aud wrinkled and
gray;
She had borne with brave endurance
The burden and heat of the day.
Her laugh like music rang,
And in the Summer twilight
Sweet lullabies she sang,
AS upon her mother bosom
Lay golden heads so small,
While she dreamed that in the future
Their love would repay her ALL
Tall and fair grew the daughters,
With girlhood's winsome grace;
But mother had somehow dropped be-
And fallen out Of the race.
So long had she worked in silence
At length they'd forgotten quite,
That in their hearts and the household
She had either place or right.
! All! not till the hands are folded
| And the heart had ceased to beat,
And Gods deep rest had been given
To the tired hands and feet,
Did they think of her patient toi1ing,
Did they speak the words of praise
That might have 1ightened the labor
If spoken in other days.
Years passed on with their changes,
They found that never another
Could take the place of that lost one,
The dear, old-fashioned mother.
All, me! there are many mothers
Who through long weary days
Toll for her own unceasing
With no word Of love and praise,
The words that would thrill with glad
Too often are left unsaid
Till the rest of death has fallen
On heavy heart and head. -.
And at last they learn the lesson
That on earth there is not other
. To fill the place Of that truest friend;
God. gives us but one mother.

taking the heart and eyes of hind

Snow White, left alone, wanders t.
the home of the dwarfs and finding
no one in the house, drops down on a
couch to sleep. Then the seven
dwarfs enter and see the stranger.

unprotected they agree to offer her

HOT WEATHER AND GAS.

What about gas plant in Bozeman? This
may be delicate subject to touch upon here, but
1t occurred to the writer that such a business
would be profitable Without going into the fl
nancial features of the problem or using up any
paper or pencil figuring the cost of production or
the income from sales, there ought to be users
enough in city the size of Bozeman to make an
investment Of this kind worthy of consideration
Especially is this matter of discussion dur
ing these hot days when to the housewife or the
maid in the kitchen must be at the cooking end
OF the daily routine just the same as when the
temperature does not heat up the place. Comfort
IN the kitchen prevents many a cross word, keeps
up the harmony of the place and aids digestion.
Gas for cooking would be big factor in keeping
UP such conditions.
Electricity for cooking is, we know, mighty
1me and most convenient and the electrical ap-
phances that can be used in connection with the
household duties are numerous; still the cost of
these do not put them within the reach of all
Many people would be using the gas for the home
cooking If it were available, and the fact that it
gives the most intense heat from the striking Of
the match makes it a timesaver which appeals to
