The defense charges that the deputy sheriff of Loean county are in the Dav er officers Indicated that game had arrived. By some strange freak of imagination Harry for one brief moment thought himself in darkest Africa and before him the slinking figure of a lion, This when he saw the shape of a huge gray rat lope through a door not five feet distant. It approached the immobile youth. "Now I'll show 'em how to kill rats," said Harry. The rat didn't hear that. Because Harry said it to himself. He wasn't taking the rat into his confidence not Harry. Those rats are wise birds, if you will pcrdon the mixed simile. Now the rat was three feet distant. Now two. Now one. Harry didn't move. His gun, lying across his knees, -was pointed straight at the approaching rat. "I'll wait " said Harry. ! The crowd held its accumulated breath. The rat walked directly to the muzzle of the gun. Cocking one eye, it looked down the barrel. Its

Increased taxation, extortionate prices, sky-high profits the return of the profiteers and profiteering of the world war will follow the enactment of the McCurnber tariff bill. Senator Simmons of North Carolina, ranking democratic member of the senate finance committee, charged In the senate Saturday In miorlty report. Simmons predicted 'that the "unheard of impositions" of the bill would Impose costs between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000 a year upon the J American people, for the "ebenfit, I relatively speaking, of a mere handful who fear they cannot maln- ' tain their present high prices and profits and still further swell them at will, unless the people are further taxed, not for the benefit of the treasury, but for the benefit of their own pocketbooks.' The veteran democratic leader tore Into the pending tariff measure as one that would "would place the American people completely at the mercy of the gree and avarice of the monopolistic and profiteering intrests," who, he declared, had dictated to the republican majority of the senate how the bill should be written. "When the Fordney tariff bill passed the house the public regarded It as a monstrosity so grotesque and absurd that it was taken more as a joke than as a serious attempt at tariff revision," Simmofes said. "It did not excite the people to any degree of alarm because they felt sure that the senate would rewrite it, and they expected from the senate saner action In their behalf. "In this expectation the people have been greviously disappointed. Indignation if now culminated into a grim determination to hesist to the utmost this attempted spoliation." Simmons declared that the "people will be satisfied with nothing short of a full exposure' of this outrageous bill, which was inspired by the desire of its republicans makers to placate -the subsidized interests' at the expense of the people." In assailing the provision of the McCurnber bill which would authorize the president to raise or lower the rates fixed by it, Simmons accused the republicans of having clothed the executive with power to substitute the Fordney scheme of American valuations for the McCurnber plan of foreign valuations whenever and wherever those desiring the Fordney scheme can convince him that the scheme of placing embargoes on importations is essential to enable them to maintain present high profits, or advance them to still higher levels."
