The commission found that the com- pany safeguarded the dangerous cross- over by the adoption of rules which, if they had been followed, would have obviated accident, The fact #hat the rules were disobeyed, the commission holds, was responsible for the accident.

There is no doubt the country with Taft in his veto of the revision of the wool tariff upon insufficient knowledge of the requirements of the business. When such an important matter is being adjusted it should be adjusted right. President Taft's reasons for his veto are sufficient to satisfy even the friends of the measure. Seven reasons such as these appeal to reasonable citizeng in all parties 1. That it is unscientifie. 2. That it is not in accord with the expressed wish of the country that future tariff legislation should avoid the evil of log rolling and be the result of careful inquiry by a tariff commis- sion. 3. That schedule K is so compli- cated that it ought not to be revised until complete information is availa- ble. 4. That an avowed tariff for reyve- nue and an anti-protection bill is by compromise blended with a protection bilL 5. That the principle followed in adjusting the amendments 6f existing law is not clear and the effect of the bill 18 most uncertain. 6. That the labor and capital inter- ested In the-wool industry are too im- portant in their extent to justify ac- tion upon insufficient information. 7. That accur: information be available in December, vigion will be recommended in a re- vieion of duties which, in the judg- ment of the president ‘e too high A paper who favored th revision by the insurgents and democrats says of the president’s action: “He 1s to be commended for his bravery in the instances. Within six months he will probably be commend- ed by every citizen in the country fo awaiting the tariff commission’'s 1 port and giving congress a chance to will when re- serve its constituents honorably and efficiently. He has not vetoed tarift revision. He has vetoed log-rolling tarift making.’ DR. WILEY GIVES FOOD, DOPERS NO QUARTER. Friends of the administration siving unmistakleable signs of worry over the possible political effect of the Wilson-Wiley-McCabe feud. Before the Moss investigating committee took it up, it was apparent that the public was overwhelmingly in favor of the doughty doctor as .against the wily solicitor and with the evidence any- ng like even between them Dr. Wilty ‘would be sustained by public opinion, Little testimony had been taken before the majority of the com- mittee was convinced of three facts: First, that if Dr. Wiley was guilty of any infraction of law with the appointment o€ Dr. Rusby as pharmacognocist, there were plenty of precedents for his action. created by Secretary Wilson and Solicitor Mc- Cabe: second, that if Dr. Wiley had erred he had done =0 on the side of the people and not on the side of the food-dopers: and, third, that if he lost hls position there would be a howl from the American people that could be heard around the world. Incident- ally, the testimony showed that for some years Dr. Wiley had pletely shorn of power in connection with the administration of the pure food act. The committee was there- fore ready to report, exonerating Dr Wiley, a few days after it began its investigation, but it was on the track of too much interesting material. “Doc” Wiley is a Hoosier, and “back home” they think a heap of him. -He set Indlana right on pure food before he left there thirty vears ago to work for the government. Indiana glories in what is probably the best food law in the country. Certain manufactur- ers, seeking to force on the Hoosiers foods their heaith authorities have condemned, have tried to upset the law and have it declared unconstitu- tional. To assist them, the depart- ment of agriculture loaned these man- ufacturers such witnesses as they de- sired, including the members of the famous Remsen board, the department paying the expenses. The state of Indlana had to furnish its own wit- nesses and was put to all the expense and trouble possible by the department of agriculture. These facts are per- colating through the minds of the In- diuna taxpayers and voters and they been com- in connection | dence, since they are in a-position to reach conclusions without fear or fa- vor, and as a body are above suspi- cion. Such an accident is too expensive for any railroad company to continue blind to any precaution to prevent its repetition. Quards are more visible after an accident than before it; and the commission’s recommendations, which more than likely are in accord with the Consolidated road’s conclus- ions, will be followed. It is for the interest of the road to avoid such ac- cidents, and it rareiy has one. ADJOURN! ADJOURN! It is regrettable that the problem of workmen's compensation must go. over to 1913. And that there has been no progress in the direction of an im- proved ,Sunday law. But the general happinéss and prosperity of the state will continue with sufficient vitality, notwithstanding. Adjourn, O. house! Adjourn, O senate!

Do not yearn for an improved Sun- day law, neighbor, Massachusetts has one. Under it” you can buy vyellow journals with rotten supplements, and tobacco in every form, and souvenirs at all the summer resorts, but if you have not the price of a can of soup on Saturday night but have it on Sunday morning. a dealer will be prosecuted if he sells it to you. The improved Sunday law is about as ridiculous a thing as has ever received the sanc- | tion of a Christian state. What the state needs is improved men and wo- men, for through them an improved Sunday is only possible. Sunday is bound to be what communities see fit to make it, regardless of the law. Sun day agitation is never for a holier day but for more license; and since the people are having all the license that is necessary, why should the state be asked to lessen license by increasing it?

Mr. Crump and my husband are at their old tricks, having each ether arrested every day, and I'm sure 1 don’t know where it Will end, unless it's the poor- house, for it costs like everything to be arraigned in the police station. My husband just telephoned me, saying he had been fined $10 and costs, and asking me to hurry to the ‘police judge with the money or he'd be locked up, and he wanted to be released from custody right away, as he had a plan to get even with Mr. Crump.” - “I thought a truce was declared.a few days ago,” remarked Mrs. Wag- stafr. Yes, they @id drop hostilities, but my husband’s devotion to the public interests stirred Mr. Crump to fresh activity., You see, there has been a great agitation of the dog question lately. Several people have been bit- ten by hobo dogs, and an epidemic of hydrophobia was feared, so the nfayor issued a proclamation saying that the license fee must be paid by every dog owner, and policemen were sent ovt to kill every dog that had no license. “My husband says it was a wise mensure and he claims that every man who has the best interests of the pub- lic at heart will pay his dog tax cheer- fully, and I don’t doubt that he's right. “Well, Mr. Crump has a mother dog and six pups several he also has an old dried-up cistern in the back yard, and what did he do but put his doge'in that cistern and cover up the top with old boards so that it looked as though it hadn’'t been mo- lestad for months.

Se bright and early in the morning a policeman came to Crump’s house nnd asked Mr. Crump if he had any de and Mr."Crump said he hadn’t. He d have a female dog and several pups, he said with an air of great candor, but he disposed of them when the 'hydrophobia scare started. Far be it from him to contributé to the ‘public uneasiness. Much as he loved his does, they had to go when the lives of citizens were imperiled. 'We could hear every word of the conversation at our house, and my husband was fairly doubled up with mirth, but I couldn’t see anything to laugh at. When a man stinds up and prevaricates the way Mr. Crump did T seem %o lose confidence in human nature. And the worst of it was that Mrs. Crump went to the door and told a lot of unnecessary fish stories, to back up her husband. The dogs had been turned over to a negro, she said, with strict instructions to kill them, and ag the negro was a reliablé man of high moral character, there could be nc doubt that the pcor animals were destroved.long ago. The policeman listened to all these stories as though he believed them, and made notes in a little book, and finally said: ‘I see you have a_.cistern back there. I'm passionately fond of cistern water, so with your permission I'll go back and get a drink.’ “Mr, Crump tried to grab his coat tails, and Mrs, Crump shrieked that the cistern had no water in it, but the policeman paid no attention.

MANY AMERICAN COLLEGE " MEN ARE “BROKE” IN EUROPE Shy of Funds, They Try to Borrow Money to Get Home. Cleveland, O., August 21.—Europe is rife with penniless American college men anxious to borrow enough money to get home, according to Frank P. Bagnall, son of A. C. Bagnall, princi- pal of + .school, Lakewood, who {has just returned from a Furopean tour “which cost him exactly $80 in | cash. Bagnall made the trip in company with Carlton Small, son of a_James- | town, N. Y. minister, who, like him- | self, is_a student at Adelbert college heré. Starting out early in July with only in their pockets, they visited Tondon, Paris and other European points for 26 days and then returned to America. They worked their way {across the ocean. going and coming, | earned a little money after arriving, and borrowed the remainder of the sum required to pay their expenses from friends they met in Paris. “We met American college men do- ing Europe like ourselves wherever we went,” said Bagnail, today. ‘Almost invariably they were ‘broke’ and want- ed to borrow money to get home.” Bagnall and Small had six cents apiece when they arrived in Paris.

Representative Anderson of Minnesota, a republican insurgent, | who defeated . ex-Chairman Tawney last fall, delivered a _five-minute speech on the right of the people of Arizona to put anything they desired into their constitution, He closed as follows: “So far as I am concerned I would as soon climb to Jehovah's throne and pluck from God’s diadem of jewels His brightest star as I would vote for this resolution, taking away, as it does, the right of the people of Arizona to establish a constitution according to the principles for which they stand, and in which they be- It is thought that the present dele- gates will be elected to represent the new states in the senate.
