100 per cent, down to that figure, was refused discussion. If the Republicans carry the next national election, the standpatter ma jority will claim that the principle of protection ha been indorsed and the recommendation of such a tariff com mission as they now propose will be ignored There is another reason why there can b- no tariff revision by a Repub lican congress, and that is the trusts and corporations will still control a majority of the United States senate and any bill that would reduce the lara profits that the present tariff law gives the trusts will receive scant support in the finance committee with assssior AMrich. that arch trust protectionist at its head, and the Stand ard Oil millions at his back. If the people who are pa in? high trust price want the coat of living reduced, they must not only vote for a Democratic president, a Democratic house of representatives, but more especial!- fur Democratic members of their state legislatures, in those states where United States senators are to be elected, who will in turn vote for Democrats for United States senators. There are 30 senators whose terms expire March 5. 1909. of whom 12 ar- Democrats If a majority of the 1 Republicans were defeated, there would be 41 Democrats and 49 Re publicans in the senate, sad there ar six of seven Republicans who would vote with the Democarts for a partial tariff reform bill. Think over this and when yon fee! the pinch of high irust prices make a resolve that you will vote to turn the trust rascals ouL

Republicans Refuse Investigation. Many newspapers have suppressed the fact that on June 27, the Repub Means is the New York state senate Worked the passage of a resolution providing for an investigation of the charge made against Roosevelt by Judge Parker and E H Harriman concerning the Republican campaign fund of 1904 Rut such is the fact The resolution recited that reports. Inspired by the promoters of corporate U Ig New York, distinctly charge that the managers of the Republican campaign of 19 4 solicited and accepted large contributions of

of living, without a compensating increase of income. !s compelling those with limited incomes to economize There is a general era of strikes and lockouts on account of the demands for higher wages and the refusal to pay such Increase. Everyone is waiting to see what the harvest will be and to arrange their business accordingly. It ia still too early to determine what the shortage in the crops will be. but it is certain that the average will be below normal, with partial failures in some states of small grains at least. There is a general failure of the fruit crop in many states and even small fruits have been a partial failure There is a compensation for the grower and farmer, however, for the price they are obtaining is higher, so hat perhaps on the average the farmers will have as much money to spend. The higher prices for what they have to buy are the discouraging feature. Meantime the government is collecting tariff and internal revenue taxes far In excess of the need of revenue, ven under the extravasan: appropriation of congress and (be end of ths fiscal year finds a surplus of IS7.000.000 collected over and above the outgo The national banks ha-.e been . aned $1;." ' the s'jr;''.-i that the enormous tariff taxes have piled up in the last Rw years upon which they pay no interest to the government, but are loaning out at the highest rate that money will demand. We thus have the extraordinary spectacle, under the present Republican policy, of the collection from the people of tariff and other taxe. much in excess of the needs of the government and these excess taxes, which should be in the tockets of the people, loaned out to them, so that in fact the taxpayers are borrowing their own money at high rates of interest Can any voter indorse such a system 7 Should not the tariff be revised so that the trusts will not be so highly protected and taxation be reduced? The Republican standpatters declare their policy to be to continue to let well enough alone and the coming congress wlM continue that policy of protecting the trusts and plundering the people.

Close Confinement. The ni'A phonograph had Just arried. an-1 in her husband's absence, Mi Jone , thought she would give her parrot a treat, so she set the machine workiug on a pgCOfi of "In Old Ma drld," sung by Mr. Jones in his best style. At the very first bar Polly opened her eyes in surprise, and rocked her I to and fro in deep and speechless wonder. She was evidently thinking deeply, and her excitement was intense. She cocked hor head on one side, with an WpWMtOB that indicated IntWWtwd conjecture, and Irritation at not arriving at a satisfactory conclusion. As the sons finished, an idea dawned uin her "Well,' said Mr Jones with pride, "what do you think of that. Polly?" Then the bird found words: "Oreat Scot!" she shrieked. "You've got the bid man boxed up this time."

"Yes." the leader of the amateur brass band was saying, ' it's curious to see what an effect learning to play a horn has on some persons. I used to be a pretty good bass singer, but I can t sing worth a cent now " "Does learning to play a horn spoil the voice" asked his next-door neighbor. ' It did mine." "How do you account for it?" "I don t know how to account for It. Strains the vocal chords, perhaps. All I know is that I blew my voice out through the mouthpiece of my cornet." Did you have a good voice?" "Everybody said so." "Then it's a great pity you ever learned to play a horn.'" rejoined his neighbor, shaking his head sadly. "1 er think I should have enjoyed hearing you sing " Youth's Companion.

Uoes any man In the world remember a tariff revision by Republicans which waant a revision upwards? We want no such revision.

Until Too St ff to Bend Over. "When I drank coffee I often had sick headaches, nervousness and biliousness much of the time, but when I went to visit a friend I got in the habit of drinking Postum. "I gave up coffee entirely and the result has been that I have been entirely relieved of all my stomach and nervous trouble. "My mother was Just the same way. We all drink Postum now, and without coffee in the house for 2 years, we are all w M "A neighbor of mine, a great coffee drinker, was troubled with pains In her side for years and was an invalid. She was not able to do her work and could not even me nd clothes or do anything at all where she would have to bend forward. If she tried to do a little hard work ?he would get such pains that she would have to lie down for the rest of the day. "At last I persuaded her to atop drinking coffee and try Pos urn Food Coffee and she did so and has used Postum ever since; the result has been that she can now do her work, can sit for a whole day and mend and can sew on the machine and she never feels ths least bit of pain In her side, tn fact, she has got well and It shows coffee was the cause of the whole trouble. "I could also tell you about several other neighbors who have deen cured by qulttin; coffee and using Postum la its place " There's a ItatsSMs." Look la pkg. for the famous UtUgfc The Road to We.il ville."

Too Much Exposure. Klsie fv a laundress of color. She Is well past youth, wears a parennial ?mile and sports a single front tooth 3f much projiinence. Recently she miss, d one of her visits to a patron, and when she next put In an appearance she was suffering from a bad cold When asked how she took such a serious cold she said: "During the recent festivities our club gave a ball. The gentleman what's paying attention to me is very particular, so I had to go In full even"ng dress, and I had to leavt off a few pieces, and It got me."

Sheer white goods, in fact, any nn wash goods when new, owe much of ; lh ir attractiveness to the wny they are laundered, this being done in a manner to enhance their textile beauty. Home laundering would be equal-

' ly satisfactory If proper attention was

given to starching, the first essential being good Starch, which has sufficient strength to stiffen, without thickening the goods. Try Defiance Starch and you will be pleasantly surprised at the Improved appearance of your work. Watching the Knife Play. "There is an awful fascination

about seeing people eat with their knives." said he who has just spent a week on the farm for this health, with a retrospective look in his eyes.

"A knife is such an unexpected Instrmiier.t. You never know just where

It is going to strike. You can't keep your eyes off. You are afraid to look for fear It might slip and cut the mouth half In two. and you are afraid If you don't look it might happen and you won't get to see it." The Sad Sea. The thin, pale man In the large

j bathing suit, standing khee-deep in the

wafer, sighed. "Why," we asked, "are you bo sad?" "Alas." he answered, "the sea is the grave of my first wife." Our Hps curled superciliously. "But you married again," we murmured. "Yes." said he. "and my second wife won't go near the water."
