COME FIRST.

The senate has agreed to postpone consideration of
the tariff until after the treaties growing out of the
Washington conference have been disposed of. That
is the program that naturally presents itself. Other
I 1hons are anxiously awaiting American action on
tie treaties, and it is more than a courtesy we owe to
Fem to indicate promptly what disposition we pro-
pose to make of the agreements. Affairs in our own
government, also, cannot be adjusted until it is known
whether the treaties are to become the law of the land.
Quite likely the Democrats win attack the party in
power because of the tariff delay. The fact is the
treaties were entirely unforeseen when the Repub-

The suicide of George W. Perry, president of the
Sheridan National bank, and one of the most widely
known citizens in public life, has cast a gloom over
the entire state. He has been associated with many
important matters of politics, business and finance. he

takings won and held the respect and esteem of his
fellows
What condition of mind could have Influenced the
final act IN his career remains unexplained. BE was

Production and Consumption Of Beef

Beef doesn't "just grow" It has
reached its present standing as a cen

Years ago before our country was

cattle were raised neas large cities,
Today. according to government fig.
ures, so per sent of the beef cattle in
the United State are raised west of
the Mississippi river. Seventy per
cent of the beef is eaten east Of that

New York and New England would
have about six beefless days a week
were it not that Iowa and her sister

TAKE CARE OF OUR OWN.

The Omitted States led the world in the building of
ships that excelled in speed and efficiency, but an IN
wise policy turned ocean shipping over to other ma
tons Had we not better return to our senses and
regain our place in the ocean carrying trade? With
our great coast lines, our foreign possessions and our
enormous international traffic, do we want to employ
the boats of other nations to deliver our goods? Is it
good business or is it even good sense? Should we
not cut costs and keep the money among our own peo-
pie? Any business man win tell you it is good policy.

Salvation Army
Directors Meet

AT a meeting OF the board Of
directors Of the Salvation Army last
night Captain Carr made the state.
ment that the; local branch Of thN!'
army has barely enough to support
It's various activities in normal
times, and that 1t is impossible for
1t to care for the greatly increased
number OF cases who appeal daily
for aid, for meals and for lodging.
Scores Of people who normally
never bother the Army are flocking
to 1t now that people are hungry.
The directors listened attentive
ly to the report, made by their ex.
ecutlve officer and another meet.
ing will be held III the near fu.
ture for the purpose OF making
plans to meet the emergency con.
ditions.
An effort will also be- made TO
secure the cooperation and aid Of
the county and city governments.
The county pays the Army $50 a
month, but this falls much below
the expenses Of the large numbtT
of destitute people turned over by
the county to the Salvation Army.
The local government doea not
contribute a penny toward tho sup
port of the home and the commit,
teemen are-of one opinion that this
condition must not continue, At
the next meeting some plan will be
offered by which the Army will re-
ceive a fair price for service rem
dered by the local branch to tho
city and county.
New directors were added last
night to replace the two who have
