America made fresh water pearl buttons a common necessity for the people of all nations. According to a Hoover, Secretary of the Department of Commerce, the United States has taken definite steps to protect the lead 1t has always maintained throughout the world in this unique industry. To this end the Department of Commerce. through the Bureau of Fisheries, will this year extensively develop the fresh water mussel fish ing beds of many inland rivers.
 ''It was only thirty years ago." Seere- tary Hoover stated, that the business interests centering around the fresh water mussel resources of the United States came to assume the propor- tions of an important national indus try. Factories for the manufacture of fresh water pearl buttons sprang up in towns along the Mississippi river. With improved machinery and meth ods. further expansion has occurred until last year many million gross of buttons were manufactured in this country.

Tariff Protection" Costs Farmers
 S3OI ,OOO. 900 a Year.

Farmers have to pay minimum of $426, ,O00,OO0 year as consumers for an annual gain of only $125 100000 as producers under the Fordney McCum- Der protiteers' tariff law. according to an expert analysis of the incidence of the new duties made by the depart ment of research of the American Farm Bureau Federation. This revela- ton of the true effect of Republican protection" on American agriculture confutes and confounds the claims of the Republican authors and defenders of the new tariff.
 The report of the Bureaus depart ment of research says that the farm CTS share in the cost of the tariff on all products is about p per cent of the total, or $426,000000. Gains to farm CTS as producers amount to $125,000,- GOO. The difference between the gross cost to the farmers of the country and their gains is $301, 100000, which is an underestimate rather than an overstatement of the burden heaped on agricultural producers by the tariff,

In Russia they have committees who Iule in their community. They brook no opposition. Any one who opposes them or openly disagrees with them is promptly executed them. There is not any question of the accused person having committed any crime. Just q word or action against the rule of the Soviet Committee and the execution takes place. The only record we have in the United States of anything re- sembling this kind of government was the Boston Tea Party" at Harrison. However, they usually gave the accus- ed the choicec of leaving their homes on one way ticket. Evidently one man stood for his constitutional rights, but what is the Constitution between friends?

The County Union will meet with the Bluff City local the first Frilay and Saturday in May. This will be at busy time of the year but there will be business of importance to attend to and it will be to the interests of each local to see that they are represented. In view if the fact that the legislature is likely to be called in special session about that time there is need of pro

RTFOWS OF TIE river 1OUS.
The Rev. Caleb Hopkins was at the
boat landing in good time next morn
ing.
The others were already there, sit
ting in the long skiff, Uncle Nick in
the stern, Jack Warhope and Al Coun-
teIman at the oars, the latter still
holding the boat to the wharf.
In his nervous and mincing way the
preacher scrambled in; Counterman
showed off; the oars dropped into the
water; and, with the seine cOiled up
on the stern locker under the expert
enced care of Uncle Nick, the live box
towing behind, the skiff slipped away
up the river toward Alpine island.
Alpine island divides the Wabash
into two nearly equal channels. The
skiff was guided into the north chan
mel, and had glanced along nearly to
the head Of the island when Counter
man rested his oars with the remark
that just there would be good place
to make the first haul.
The skilf was accordingly turned in
to the island, and the prov drawn up
On the sandy margin. Each man.

dressed, stacked his clothes in the

but 1t didn't land.
1t was apparent that Belden had
high opinion of his ability as a rough

right in and mixed it fast and furi-

pistol out Of his pocket
The pistol came out, but that was

The victories over the runner-up
Cleveland Club in doubleheader Sun
day increased the lead of the Yankees
to- eighteen and a half games and
brought about a situation whereby
the New Workers become tho pennant
winners officially just as soon az they
win one more game, or as the soon as
the Indians lose another one.
Almost In
AS the teams now stand the
Yankees could lose every one of their
sixteen remaining games and finish in
a tie, even If the Indians should do
the impossible and failed to lose a
single one in the twenty-one remain
Ing games.
While the Yankees are practically
''in" now, the New York Giants are
far from a cinch in the National
League pennant race. After they
had fairly succeeded in removing the
Red menace of Cincinnati from their
path they found another hurdle
erected in the road by the Pittsburgh
Pirates.
BY shrewd foresight John McGraw
said in the middle Of the season that
he feared the Pirates more than the
Reds and predicted Cincinnati might
not finish second.
The Giants are managing to hold
onto lead Of four games. 1t is not
a huge margin, but it is rather size
able at this late stage Of the season.
