papers, are attacking the measure
principally for the same reasons al
legged by Senator Simmons-that it
will increase the cost of living, de-
stroying what is left of the foreign
market and add to unemployment by
curtailing local production. Also
that the bill is unscientifically franz
ed, the theory or principle of pro-
lection, adopted by the republicans
after their defeat resulting from the
Payne-Aldrich tariff, having been
abandoned and the present rates
based upon unstable and constantly
fluctuating values.
Senator Jones, of New Mexico,
who has comprehensive knowledge
of many phases of tariff making, has
also Joined in the debate against the
bill, attacking the. provision of the
bill empowering the president to
shift to the American valuation plan
and has scored against his opponents
by forcing one of the leaders, SEN
ator Smoot Republican, Utah), to
admit that under this plan duties
could be levied as high as 900 per
cent.
Two other democratic senators
VIII oare masters of the tariff sub
ject, Senator Pomerene, of Ohio, and
Senator Underwood, of Alabama,
will also present the democratic side
of the case.
The republicans, on the other
hand, are lacking in leaders who I'M
derstand either economic principles
or facts, and it is expected that the
burden of unfolding this bill, already
known as the calamity tariff bill, and
drafted, as the New York World
says, by Economic morons," will rest
upon the shoulders >of Senator Smoot,
who, whatever his failings, does not
lack ability or fairness or frankness,
being one of the few men on that
side willing to admit a fact when
compelled to face it.

 SOCIALISTS. TARGET
Associated Pressl

CLEVELAND, O., April 24.-That elementary rights won by centuries of sacrifice have been invaded by postwar reaction" is contended in a congressional program which, accord ing to preliminary agenda issued from national socialist headquarters at Chi cago by Otto Branstetter, executive secretary, will be presented here at the socialist party convention April 29. The preamble to this program affirns the socialists ultimate aim of public ownership and democratic con- trol of the great industries, but adds, while preparing for this fundament- al change and working toward it as final end, we realize questions of grave immediate concern face us to- day"
 "The postwar reaction has choosen the organizations of labor for the principal object of its attack" the proposed program states. "The pro- paganda of the open shop is an as- sault upon the freedom of organiza- ton of the wage workers.
 "The Kansas industrial court with it's prohibition of strikes is the logic al result of this nationwide propa- ganda. Already bills have been in- troduced in number of states and in congress embodying this vicious idea. Anti-syndicalist laws have been passed in many states which threaten to restrict or abolish the workers right of organization"

NEW YORK, April 24.-Yesterday was the 225th anniversary of the day Captain William Kidd sailed from Plymouth, in the Adventure, a vessel of 2S4 tons and thirty guns with which he had undertaken to sweep the whole race of pirates from the high seas. Kidd had been fitted out by influential noblemen, and carried commissions under the great seal to act against the French and to seize pirates. He found volunteers plenti- ful in New York, and left with l5O tarS
 Reports after Kidd had cruised to Madagascar that he and his men had become arch-pirates themselves re- suited in his arrest at Boston ill 1899 and his execution at London in l7Ol. His name has become synonymous with freebooting, and although treas .ure worth 17,000 pounds was recov- cred from. him, Kidd was never con- victed of piracy. His sentence was imposed for the murder of one of his seamen, William Moore. Kidd con- tended that he was coerced by his crew, and that he had struck Moore when the latter was mutinous. Many have held that his trial was high handed and unfair Some authorities believe that he accepted his commis- sion to fight. piracy in good faith, but forgot his good intentions after he reached Madagascar, as piracy was such a temptingly profitable business in those days. His eminent patrons were absolved after parlia- mehtary investigation.

COURT SYSTEM PUZZLE
 TO THE IRISH
CFrom Tuesdays Daiiy) Republican and Imperial Tribun- als Both Are Recognized, But Their Decrees, Often Diver gent, Cause Confusion.
Associated Press)

DUBLIN, April 24. = Existence in Ireland of two sets of judicial tri- bunals-the republican courts and the old courts of the l1ing-has resulted in some queer legal anomalies, as both courts are recognized by the government as valid, and their de- cisions do not always coincide.
 One of the most notable of these double action" cases concerned a book-naker who entered suit in kings court against man who re- fused to pay his seasonal losses, said to exceed his winnings with the same book-maker by 20 times. The de- fcndant pleaded the gaming acts pro- hibiting legal proceedings to collect gambling debts, won his case, and the book-maker added counsel fees to his other losses.
 Hardly was the case decided in kings court when the defendant en- tered suit against the book-nlaker ill republican court, demanding judg- ment for the amount of his winnings The astonished book-maker, realizing that he could not afford to leopard ize his trade of betting by taking re fuge under the gaming acts as his client had done, found that the ques, ton before the court was merely whether the horses named i'll the ac ton had won. When due proof o this was submitted, judgment wa' again entered against the bool-mak CT.

 Members of the county central committee are expected to gather from all parts of the bailiwiek for this little chat. Although they have no state conference" yet as their hated rivals, the democrats have, the republican party as repre- sented by this body of works, will have plenty to do. Herb Meany, the chairman during the past two cam- paigns. is very anxious to bequeath the job, and there arc lot ot in- fluential republicans who are just as anxious to sec Herb keep it and con tinue the good work he has been do- ing for the past several seasons
 Some vacancies, such as that caused by the departure of Dr. J. H. B1aiu for Detroit, are to be filled at tonight's meeting, 50 that there will be a committee full of members and each member full of party loyalty and the strong hope of victory, when this crew starts the machine in the race to down the darn demnies.
