DEBATE ON TARIFF BECOMING GENERAL
However, Few, If Any, Have Changed Their Convictions. PROGRESSIVES BUSY
Calling Attention To Necessity For Change In Tariff Rates.
(Palladium Special.) WASHINGTON, April 28. General debate on the tariff bill has been raging back and forth for four days now and it is entirely safe to say that not a member of that body has changed his convictions for or against either the bill or avy of its four thousand Items. In the main, the debate has taken the same old range made familiar to followers of proceedings in Washington by hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of pages of the Congressional Record. Republicans assail the Democratic bill as a disaster-breeding measure of free trade. Democrats defend it as a measure of relief to the people of the country from the high cost of living and assail the Republican theory and practice of high protection as unconstitutional robbery. Wit, metaphor and poetry are employed indiscriminately by both sides and, for all practical advantage, the report of the proceedings as between Republicans and Democrats might be taken from any one of the many simi
lar sham battles that have preceded this one. I But a new and striking element has ; been injected into this debate by the j little band of Progressives in the j House. The standpat newspapers, Re- j publican and Democrat alike, have devoted little or no space to this signifl- j cant feature of the present debate, ! but it is a feature which will increase rapidly in importance as the tariff bill proceeds along its well oiled way and which is bound to gain vastly in public recognition and approval before the tariff bill receives the president's signature. While Republicans and Democrats are emphasizing by their speeches the ; fact that the pending bill is a product of the same old vicious method of tariff making that has marked the enactment of previous tariff laws, the Progressives have steadily called attention to the manner in which the inconsistencies and defects charged by Republicans or admitted by Democrats emphasize the necessity for change not merely in tariff rates, but, In what Is of even preater importance, in the method of tariff making. The Republicans go gaily ahead pointing out items in the measure which more or less obviously are the results of Ignorance or indolence and, at the eame time, Democrat after Democrat makes admission that in this, that or the other respect the bill is not right and could be improved. Thus, while neither side admits the logical implication of its argument, both sides aresteadily adding to the proof of the necessity for the creation of a permannent, nonpartisan scientific Tariff Commission, which shall secure to all the people of the whole country not merely for the private use of the majority members of the Ways " and Means Committee full information ! about every item considered in a tar-! Iff bill. The proposition of the Progressive party is "the establishment of a nonpartisan, scientific Tariff Commission reporting both to the President and to either branch of Congress, which shall report, first, as to the costs of production, efficiency of labor, capitaliza-; tion, Industrial organization and efficiency and the general competitive position in this country and abroad of : industries seeking protection from '

TROUBLE ENDED.
No Indigestion, Gas, Heart-! burn or Dyspepsia five minutes after taking ! "Pape's Diapepsin." j Every year regularly more than a 1 million stomach sufferers in the Unit-; ed States, England and Canada take Tape's Diapepsin, and realize not only immediate, but lasting relief. This harmless preparation will digest anything you eat and overcome a sour, gassy or out-of-order stomtch five minutes afterwards. j If your meals don't fit comfortably, ; or what you eat lies like a lump of lead in your stomach, or if you have heartburn, that is a sign of indigestion. Get from your pharmacist a fiftv- ; cent case ot Pape's Diapepsin and take a dose Just as goon as you can. There will be no sour risings, no belching of undigested food mixed wit h acid, no stomach gas or heartburn, fullness or heavy feeling in the stomach, nausea, debilitating headaches, dizziness or intestinal griping. This wiM all go, and, besides, there will be no sour food left over in the stomach to poison your breath with nauseous odors. Pape's Diapepsin is a certain cure j for out-of-order stomachs, because it ! takes hold of your food and digest3 it just the same as if your stomach wasn't there. Relief in five minutes from all stomach misery is waiting for you at any drug store. j These large fifty-cent cases contain ; jnore than sufficient to thoroughly cure almost any case of dyspepsia, in-; digestion or any other stomach dis(order. j
Congress; second, as to the revenue-' producing power of the tariff and its relation to the resources of government; and, third, as to the effect of the tariff on prices, operations of middlemen, and on the purchasing power of the consumer." In explaining the reduction in duties on steel and iron and other metals, Mr. Palmer declared that the duty on ferromanganese, an essential element in all steel manufactures, had been increased from $2.50 a ton to 15 per cent ad valorem, equivalent to between $8 and $9 a ton at present prices. Mr. Palmer said that this was done purely for revenue purposes. Questioned by others, he presently admitted that the steel trust is the only
manufacturer of ferromanganese in the United States. All the smaller independent steel concerns import their ferromanganese. When it was pointed out that the effect of this provision would be to protect the steel trust at the expense of the small independent concerns, Mr. Palmer replied that it would not protect the steel trust at all because the steel trust does not make ferromanganese for sale. But the steel trust can and does make ferromanganese in quantities and, with a protective duty of $9 establishing a domestic market for it, a new source of profit is at once open to that gigantic corporation. The real point of the matter is, however, that it also shows the importance and benefit to the whole country of having a full body of authentic information on the whole subject available to everybody before a tariff bill is written attempting to deal with it. For years the Democrats have assailed schedule K the wool schedule as the center of iniquity in Republican tariff bills. So now, over the vehement protest of Democrats representing wool-growing districts, they ha put wool on the free list in the hope of securing thereby a reduction in the price of woolen goods and corresponding political profit for themselves. Republican previous tariffs have all treat
ed sheep wool and Angora goat wool alike. Way back in the hills of Texas, remote from observation and scrutiny, lives a modest Democrat named Robinson who has a flock of three or four thousand Angora goats. Mr. Robinson has the advantage of being represented in Congress by a Democrat who is a member of the Ways and Means Committee. The new Democratic tariff bill differentiates between wool of the sheep and wool of the goat, and Mr. Robinson has a comfortable knowledge that the new law will give him a protection of 20 per cent ad valorem on his Angora wool.

The commencement exercises of the Dublin high school were held Friday evening in the Friends' church of that place. Notwithstanding the inclement weather, the large auditorium was well-filled. Rev. Joshua Stansfield, of Indianapolis, delivered the class address, "The Ideal and The Actual," showing that optimism is a virtue to be cultivated at all times. He emphasized the thought throughout his address that inheritance is much, but that training is equally essential and that there is the ideal, and the actual in every walk of life, but that it is through effort exerted to reach an ideal, that the individual secures the best from the actual. Rev. Stansfield, while pleasing in oratory and diction, is equally so in personality and his address left an impress which will long remain in the minds, not alone in the minds of the class, but of all who heard him. Prof. G. E. Long in well chosen remarks presented the diplomas to the graduates. The class exercises were held Friday afternoon in the high school assembly room, the theme of Otis C. Hill, Successful Men, Verna Montez Adams, Noble Women; Howard L. Cale, The Stock Exchange, Frank T. Scott, The Postal Service; Carroll Smalley "Home Life," and Carl R. Mercer, Make Hay While The Sun Shines." Mrs. Nathan Nicholson, Mrs. James Keesling and Mrs. Joseph Brown, of New Castle, were the guests of W. Benton Wilson and family at the close of the week.

Cards have been received by friends in this city from Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Wheland of Chattanooga, who are spending some time in Panama. Mrs. Wheland is the mother of Mrs. B. A. Carpenter and has frequently visited la this city.
(National Xews Association) NEWCASTLE, Ind., April 28. Through a suit filed by Mrs. Bertha Wise Smalley, aged 20 years, against the Central Trust Bank, of this city, to recover $1,600, the bank account of
every minor in Indiana is jeopardized, and if the suit is eventually decided in favor of Mrs. Smalley all banks will be required to pay back amounts paid on checks issued by minors during the last two years, it is claimed by lawyers and by bankers of this city. When Mrs. Smalley, then Miss Wise, inherited an estate of $2,000 her guardian, George Mahoney, placed the amount to her credit in the Central Trust Bank. She used some of the money, and on the date of her marriage she had a balance of $1,600 to her credit. With her marriage, however, the guardianship ceased, and full and complete reports ' were made to the Court and the guardian was dismissed. Mrs. Smalley signed checks and gave them to her husband to be filted in with the proper amounts as he saw fit. Subsequently all the money was drawn from the Central Trust Bank nnd deposited at the Citizens' State Bank. Other checks were paid, and the balance was subsequently transferred to the Mooreland State Bank. Smalley presented a check for the entire amount to his wife's credit, explaining that he wanted to purchase some stock. The check was honored by the Mooreland Bank, and Smalley, deserting his wife, fled with her money. Mrs. Smalley now is suing on the ground that the bank had no right to honor her checks because she was a minor. The case is pending in the Henry Circuit Courts, and has attracted an unusual amount of interest because of the many institutions involved. Although the Central Trust company Is the only defendant named it is contended that the other banks will be sued similarly. The suit against the Central Trust will be carried to the higher courts if decided in favor of Mrs. Smalley.

How has your wheat weathered the winter? Does it look strong and vigorous, or is It weak and thin?
For a large amount of the winter wheat planted last fall, the ground was well prepared; plump, vital seed was used, and for the young plant in many instances, available plant food was supplied. However, some of the wheat was planted late. In some sections it has had very little covering of snow. The weather has been fairly favorable, but fields upon which water stood for any length of time and ice formed are in bad condition. Some of the wheat was planted so late that it did not make sufficient growth before winter set in. Weak wheat can be helped by immediate action as soon as spring opens. The Crop Moisture. The farmer knows that the wheat plant requires heat, air, moisture and available plant food In order to live and make satisfactory growth. The lack of any of these essentials means death to the crop. As the warm sun of spring beats upon the hardened wheat fields, it causes the evaporation of hundreds of barrels of water per day from a 50-acre field, because the water connection between the surface soil and the water supply below is complete. Now, to stop this great evaporation, and to allow air to enter the soil spaces, the farmer must act quickly if he is to save his crop. Tillage That Will Help. The farmer should roll his wheat field as soon as it will bear a team upon it, and follow this rollimg immediately with a light harrowing. If he has a "weeder" he can accomplish a great deal of good by going over the wheat crop with this tool. If he has
; harrows with adjustable teeth, he should throw these teeth back at an
angle of 45 degrees and harrow the:
field, going back and forth over the I field, parallel with the wheat rows, j This harrowing will not stir the sur
face deep enough to injure the wheat roots but will help the soil conditions greatly by preparing a surface mulch. This surface mulch wfll break up the water connection in the soil and effectively prevent an injurious amount of evaporation. Always follow rolling with a light harrowing. If, however, the farmer does not have a roller, or If he does not think it wise to roll the wheat, he can help the weak wheat crop a great deal by a careful harrowing. Plant Food Strengthens. The tiny wheat plant needs special nourishment. It should have an abundance of readily available plant food of the right kind ot give it a vigorous start and maintain it in vigorous growth. Such help can be supgrowth plied by broadcasting good fertilizer. This should be broadcasted or distributed on the wheat through the fertilixer attachment on the wheat drill. If the wheat drill is used, of course the disks will be left suspended so that they will not cut the young wheat plant. This fertilizer should be put on the wheat just before it Is
rolled. The harrowing will work it ! into the soil.
The above operations can be carried on even until the wheat is up four inches, without injury to the crop. This practice is common among European wheat growers. Grass and Clover Seeding. If grass and clover seed is sown upon the wheat field in early Spring, this early cultivation will bury the need sufficiently deep to insure good
germination. The addition ot aval) able food in the forms mentioned wtl greatly increase the chances of a successful "catch of grass." By such treatment, weak wheat will be greatly benefited and materially assisted towards a profitable yield ot superior quality of grain.

The Kind You Have Always Bought
Bears the Signature of
Mighty few of us are able to follow the example of wealthy easterners who, when they have a touch of lung trouble or a chronic cold, tafce a trip to the pine barrens of North Carolina, "the land of the long leaf pine." There it is always summer and cold troubles are soon banished by the warm dry air, spicy with the odor of uncounted leagues of pine forests. But the local druggists have recently received a treatment that is aimost as good. It is the invention of a North Carolina druggist, who discovered a process of combining, in the form of a salve, the Carolina pine tar with Menthol from Japan, Camphor from the Isle of Formosa, and the oils of Cubeb, Juniper, Thymol and Eucalyptol. By this process the heat of the body releases these in(Advert
gredients In the form of vapors when the preparation is applied over the throat and chest. These sooth'ng medicated vapors are breathed in all night long, at the t-ame time the preparation is absorbed through the skin, taking out the soreness. It seems a remarkable claim, but croup is relieved in fifteen minutes and most colds go over night. Of course severe cases require longer treatment and the pores of the skin over the throat, chest and back between the fctoulder blades, should first be opened by applications of hot wet towels. Then the salve should be rubbed In well and covered with warm flannel cloths. The covering around the neck should be kept loose so the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. For all forms of bronchial troubles, catarrh, asthma, tonsilitis, etc., this new treatment will be found unusually effective. The Richmond druggists are showing their confidence in this preparation by selling it on 30 days trial. With each sale they give a refund blank, good for your money back if you are not delighted with the results. This treatment is known as Vicryl Croup and Pneumonia Salve and a. I tttviA ti ra OC fAs.
