Boston, May 26.-John Lawthern, marine corps, private, brought back to the navy yard from Quantico. Va, to answer the charge that he killed Sta tion Agent Ralph w. Brewster at Winchester on April 20. maintained today his protest that the story by Charles Tindall civil prisoner and a discharged marine which was the basis for his arrest was the result of personal spite. He had fight with Tindall recently, he said, after the lat ter insulted young woman of Law thern's acquaintance and to this he attributed the latter's statement that Lawthern had confessed the shooting to him.
 Records al the navy yard. and the testimony of Lawthern's associates in the marine corps tend to bear out his statements that he was on guard duty at the hour the murder was commit ted eight miles away.
 Under examination by Col. A. T. MariX, marine corps commandant at the yard today, Lawthern said he had no concern over the charges and that he was confident he would be cleared easily.

THE LEARNED REPORTER

1t has long been doubtful whether
newspaper work should be classified
as a trade or a profession. In recent
years the affiliation Of organized news
paper workers in some cities with the
Federation of Labor has clearly tended
to give the occupation the character
of trade. On the other hand, news
paper editors, reporters and artists
have always drawn Salaries" rather
than wages and therefore did not
seem to belong regularly in the ranks
of labor Their work, too, has usually
been held to give them a different char
acter. They were an estate" sure
enough, but what else were they?
Now the whole problem is settled
without any trouble on the part Of the
group concerned, The United States
government, acting through It's immi-
grafton authorities, in deciding the
eligibility of a Canadian reporter to
enter the country has designated the
aforesaid reporter as "member Of a
learned profession" and thus in no
way affected by the contract labor law.
Everybody in the newspaper game
accordingly heayes a sigh of relief and

chief to newest news-chaser, all are

The rates in the new tariff bill av-
erage 40 to so per cent higher than
those of the Payne-Aldrich tariff, Of
which an indignant public rendered
their opinion at the ballot box in 1912,
when Mr.. Taft only carried two states
for reelection. The rates are double
those of the Underwood law, the De
mocratic tariff measure under which
this country enjoyed prosperity. En-
| actment Of the new bill will increase

"The manufacturer is getting his,
and wen get ours; the devil take the
consumer"
The high sentiment attributed to
Senator Ladd, representing "the Re
publican faction of the Nonpartisan
League" does not reveal in the West
ern farmers, for whom Mr. Ladd
speaks, an attitude more selfish than
that of Eastern manufacturers has
been throughout the many years of dis
cussion Of the tariff.
The difference between the manufac-
turer who wants protection from com
petition and the farmer who wants
protection from competition is not a
difference in morality, or in brutality,
but in practically.
Farmers, speaking generally cannot
loot the consumer by procuring a high
import duty on agricultural products.
The Emergency Tariff promises were
merely viii O. the Wisp to lead farm
ers into the bog. So will be the prom
Uses of any supplanter of the Emerg-

result in a higher price for sugar. 1t

He Was Stumped.

Rack in an inland town in Illinois in
the early days there was a justice Of
the peace who was very nearsighted.
one sumer day he made out some sub
poenas to be served on witnesses, and
dozed off. A fly lit in his inkwell, ex-
tracted itself after some difficulty, and
crawIed onto one Of the subpoenas.
The constable, who was something of
a practical joker, picked up the paper,
and pointing to the fly tracks, said:
Judge, what is that name2'
The Judge held the paper close to his
eyes and sQuinted at 1t for few min
utes. Then scratching his head in per
plexity, he answered:
Looks like my handwriting, all
right, but darned if / can make out the
name."-Wall Street Journal.

II would be pleasant to say that the
outlook is hopeful for the Genoa Con

The past several months has been a
period of more appeals for aid than
apple-bossoms, more money-eXtracting
campaigns than salary checks. The
citizens of this city have been btsiegcd
and stormed by collectors for all man
ncr of relief until they go about with
furtiyc, hunted glances. No pocket
book, however thin, is safe from the
encroachments of the drives disciples
No doubt each appeal is inspired by
a worthy spirit and the money goes to
serve worthy ends. But there is a limit
to the patience and funds of those who,
in the daily rounds Of business, are
compelled to dig down and give con
tributions to save embarrassment,
whether they can afford to or not. And
the prevalence of too many drives les
sens the effectiveness of each. 70 all
good things there is a limit.
