Case Broderick, who for eight | | years represented this congressional |district in the lower house of con- | gvess, has come to the defense of the Payne-Cannon-Aldrich tariff bill pass- ed at the last session of congress. Summed up and boiled down his defense amounts to this: The cost of living has not been materially increas- ed and the farmers are prosperous. What, we might ask, was the ob- ject of calling congress together in extra session? If all the result ob- tained is that the cost of living has |not been materially increased then |the session was certainly a failure. | What the people, the cgnsumers, ex- pected was that the cost of living would be somewhat decreased. If all congress accomplished was to |Slightly increase the cost of living | then it was a failure, | However, to our mind the impor- | tant thing to consider about this law is not whether the cost of living was’ increased but whether the law is fair. | Does it give every man a fair deal? |Is there any reason why the shingles A number of Missouri towns have | that the citizen puts on his roof been worked by a grafter who falls | Should be taxed 66 per cent?

Many Monroe courity school dis- tricts are long on maps and short on cash as a result of alleged misrepre- sentations on the part of an agent for a well-known publishing house, This smooth individual, it is charged, would call ona school director and inform him of an elaborate series of maps his house contemplated making, the setto include a map showing every school district and farm in Monroe county. But these maps would not be published, the agent is | alleged to have stated unless 70 per cent of the school directors voted for the company to go ahead. ° Scores of the directors voted at his solicitation and thought no more about it until a set of maps and a bill for $42.50 turn- ed up a few weeks later. It then de- veloped that the alleged voting slip ¢ was an iron clad and promissory note. ' Practically the same scheme was worked in Bates couniy the past summer.

Is there any reason why New England manufac- turers should be allowed to write a tariff bill for the rest of the country? Is there any good reason why tariff ‘duties should be greater than the dif- | ference of cost of production between this and other countries? | The fact that the people are pros- |pering under the operation of this law is no argument at all in favor of \the law. ‘The question to be answer- ‘ed is, does it give the consumer a fair deal?

DID NOT BESTRIDE SACRED ELEPHANT. Longworth Denies Escapade At- tributed to Wife. Cincinnati, O., Nov. 22.—The state- ment coming from Berlin, and hav- ing as its sponser Fraulin Ann Kroe- bel to the effect that Mrs. Nicholas Longworth when she visited Korea with the party of Americans a few| - years ago, had made all manner of fun at the local religious customs, was denied here Wednesday evening by her husband, Congressman Long- worth. Congressman Longworth said: “The woman who wrote that Mrs. Longworth rode about the capital of Korea in ‘breeches,’ then jumped astride the sacred elephant of those people, and put a cigar in her mouth after which she asked me to take her picture—the woman who wrote that stuff was either drunk or crazy and I should not be surprised to learn that she was both. Always a Real Lady. “Neither Mrs. Longworth nor my- self can remember any such occur- rence. I know that she was most respectful to the Korean people and carried herself as she always has, as a lady in whom refinement is more than-a casual thought. “The statement that she refused to thank the emperor of Korea for his kindness is false. worth and myself have busied our heads to-day in trying to remember what was the ‘sacred elephant,’ but we have failed to find it. _If it exists, it must be something very dear to the Korean heart, and as such, neither |- myself or my wife would do anything to mar its beauty or its sacredness in the minds of the Koreans. Case of Mistaken Identity. “You must remember that we were very busy on that trip and that we stayed only a short time in any one place. But I have been unable to fix Fraulein Ann Kroebel in my mind and Mrs. Longworth says she has never heard of her, “Ask any member of the party if anything like that happened. There was a lot of us and we stuck pretty close to one another. Fraulein Kroe- bel might have confused us with an- other party, and if she did I think it very unwise of her to say that any of us acted in that manner.” HELPFUL WORDS From a Butler Citizen.

You Can Keep the Dust out of Your Eyes & While shucking corn 9 Did it Ever ‘| Occur to You That you can buy all kinds of building material as cheap in Butler as in chicago or elsewhere after paying freight? That outside merchants are in business to make money as well as the home merchants? ire to gain is as great in Chicago as in Butler? That — m ts have no interest in you aside from your money’ That they contribute nothing, not even taxes, towards building up your community? That home lumbermen are not a band of robbers, but your neigh- py ae friends—human beings like yourself—striving to make a living? Here is Food for Reflection IS IT WORTH ANYTHING TO YOU? To see building material before you buy it. To pay for it only after examining it. To exchange it if you alter your plans. To return anything you may have left over. To spend your money in your own community. If you want good stock we have it and our prices are right. If you want cheap stock we can get it for you. Come and talk with us.
