she meant to go just the same, be- cause she liked a good time now and then like anybody else. We'll, Jimmy Rabbit was quite willing to have Mrs Bunny at his | Fox-party, so long as she brought
 her daughter with her. So that was settled
 l By the end ofthe day every one | had said he would come to the party | after Jimmy Rabbit had explained to all that there would not be the slightest danger That evening the guests met in the back pasture, near the woods Along the fence Jimmy Rabbit had stretched life-size picture of Tom my Fox. And when the guests saw 1t they all laughed heartily. It looked exactly like Tommy, except everybody chuckle.
 Now, said Jimmy Rabbit, "we'n let Miss Belinda Bunny be the first one to pin the tail on the picture" {" He stepped forward to blindfold Be- linda. And just then Belinda's mother Nshouldered her way through the company,
 I'm the oldest In the party" she announced. 'I ought to he the first"
 Well, Jimmy Rabbit didn't want to offend her. She was the mother of Miss Belinda. So he tied a hand kerchief over Mrs. Bunny's eyes, put 2 tail and a pin into her paw. spun her about several times. and then gave her gentle push toward the picture. He gave her a gentle push. though he really felt like giving her hard one.
 Meanwhile everybody had taken his eyes off the picture. in order to watch what Jimmy Rabbit was do- ing. So no one had seen what hap pened. No one had noticed Tommy Fox himself when he slipped through the fence and stood right in front of if completely. He twisted his tail between himself and the picture. And when the company turned their eyes toward him not one of them knew any difference, Certainly dizzy Mrs. Bunny, blindfolded as she was, couldn't sec what was in front of her as she zigzagged up to Tommy.
 Suddenly she stopped.
 My! My! she exclaimed. q smell a Foxl"
 Everybody laughed when she said that. And some one remarked. Isn't it wonderful what one's fancy will dol"
 "Go on. Mrs Bunny" said Jimmy Rabbit. There isn't the slightest danger"
 Mrs Bunny took three steps for ward and tried 10 pin the tail to Tommy Fox's nose.
 She pricked hin, sharply so i sharply that he gave yelp of pain
 Then there was 2 mad scramble, | The whole party turned and ran. | leaving poor Mrs Bunny alone with | Tommy Fox, and blndfolded.
 She jumped But of course she ] couldn't see where she was jumping. | Her claws caught in the top of the picture, and then. she fell backward. pulling the top of the picture with her. Jt folded over Tommy Fox He tripped inside if, And struggling to free himself he only managed to get SO tangled ur in it that before he out and looked for Mrs Funny she had vanished.
 She had snatched the. handker- chief off her eyes and scampered into the woods
 Resting in her own home. later. she said to her daughter. I'd give a good deal to know If that young Jimmy Rabbit played trick on me"
 Why, Maj" cried Miss Belinda. How you do talk"

DON'T ROCK THE BOAT

Word has gone or from Ne-
publican headquarters in Wash
ington warning every beneficiary
OF the new tariff not to advance
prices till after the November cleo
ton. These benedc;aries are told
that ii they raise the cost OF living
within the next forty days a DEM
ocratic house is a certainty and ii
the end the new tariff; will be
doomed.
VIII the warning be needed:
The temptation to markedly adj
vance prices all along the line IS
very great. The reaction from
nearly two years Of the most dras-
tic deflation ever experienced IS
beginning to set in. There is an
increasing demand for raw mate
rialS. The building trade and con-
struction of houses in New York,
Philadelphia. Chicago and Balti-
more are reviving. Rents have
gone so high because Of the search
~ OF houses and raw materials
have fallen to a point where 1t
pays to build a house.
\ few weeks ago the United
States Steel Company advanced
the wages OF its employees 20 per
cent The Republican press point
cd to The fact as a good omen for
the party. But two weeks before
the passage OF the Fordney-Mc-
Cumber tariff bill the company put
up the price Of its steel / per cent.
1t was done in advance so that it
would not have the appearance of
being due to the tariff. The adj
vance in the price of steel far eX-
ceeded in profits to the corpora
ton the amounts i'll increased
wages paid out to the employees.
The price OF steel directly or in
directly influences the price OF al
most every commodity or class OF
goods on the market and the action
OF the steel corporation in adyanc.
ing its price set the gage. Other
industries are eager to follow but
they are not as eager to advance
Because Of the determina-
ton not to advance wages but
rather to reduce them the railroads
and the coal operators brought
upon the country two great strikes
and the Rail men and the miners
have gone back to work without
actually getting a raise.

announcement made here.
The conference, which first gave
promise Of having far reaching ef-

ably by China, never reached the
stage of serious business.
Demands by Russia regarding the

point on which the conference went

II is already announced that PreSl-

he is greatly interested in it, not only
because his policies are to be given

because many of his friends are can

THE ONE MAN CAR

Officials of the Washington

terdav demonstrated to a number
of AlexandriauS, including Mayor
Smoot. President of the Chamber
OF Commerce Knight and others,
the good points OF the so-calIed
safety or one-mau car, which the
company proposes to install and
operate on its lines between Wash
ington, Alexandria and Mt. Yer
non, providing OF course, the pub
lic'is not too hostile 90 the plan.
The one-man or safety car, The
Gazette believes, is alright on lines
where the traffic is light. The cars
have been used successfully in
many parts OF the country on
branch and isolated lines OF many
street railways ana uIey nav
Proven a success but N'len inc
local company proposes TO lnStaI'
the one-man system between
Washington and AIeNandria'
where the traihc IS all that the roll
ing stock will stand during the
busy hours OF the day we doubt
seriously II the plan Is feasible
and its installation Is certain to
cause 4 vigorous protest from the
public.
SO far as safety appliances so
the one-man car is as near perfect
as it is possible to make it. But
the electric line proposes to run
trains, doing interstate business,
with only one man IN charge, con-
uuC'oI' uCNc' Se'cI' uONe' OoIIeO-

ments will be the national issues or
campaign, insofar as there are to be
national issues. Local issues Will pre-
dominate in many CT the states and
in a few instances, House and SEN
ate seat fights will be clean cut con-
tests on the question OF personailty'
Facts and figures will be brought
to bear 10 show that the Republicans
have truly carried out their promises
Of retrenchment in the government
expenditures. Democrats VIII OF
course dispute the figures brought
into the CAMPAIGN by the Republicans
and bring. forth figures of their own
to show that the economy has Deeh
an economy Of figures rather thah
dollars.
Insofar as aeopie are interested in
the tariff, centUry-old political
Question. it will be an issue IN the
campaign. While Republicans are
contending that they have put the
nations industries in the way OF
prosperity and have paved the way
for holding up the standard OF living
for the American workingman, Demo
crats will contend that the tariff Is
taking money out Of the pockets of
The POOR people through such break
fast table taxes as that on sugar
and putting it in the nockets Of the
rich.
Prohibition will be an issue in at
least four Senatorial fights and IN
probably as many as 100 fights for
seats in the House. New Jersey, Ohio,
Missouri and Nebraska have Republl-
can candidates taking the dry side
and Democrats standing for the wet
side, but neither party dares take the
side OF the vets in its national cam
paign. 'a
The bonus viii 0e an issue in many
individual contests. Former service
men arc being rallied in every con-
gressional district in hte Union to
approve or disapprove by their votes
the action Of their congressman and
senators on the bonus question? How
ever, neither party will make this
national issue, inasmuch as the pro-
portion Of Democratic votes for and
against the bonus was lust about the
