Robbed by a Roommate. ANGELS CAMP, Nov. 2.—Frank Mon- | teverde, a saloon-keeper, let Joe Berg of Carters share his,room last night. Berg arose at 5 o'clock this morning and de- parted, telling Monteverde he was going to Robinsons Ferry. When Monteverde arose he missed $300. He at once began to look for Berg, but did not succeed in finding him until this afternoon. When officers tried to capture Berg he fled and was not caught until he had run about two miles. He was brought to town and locked in jall. When he was searched only B5 cents was found. It is believed he took the money and buried it before the officers caught him. ey Democratic Majority in Maryland.

Y. Sun.) A New Form of Grip Epldemie. Within the last week the physiclans of this city have made the discovery that Grip in a strange form is epidemic. The attack is accompanied by pains in the muscles, particularly of the arms and shoulders, which suggest the twinges of rheumatism. Vague sensations in the chest of a very uncomfortable description induce a ‘“gone” and forlorn frame of mind. There is a sharp cough, but the most distressing features of ordinary Grip ,ham K. Arnold, are lacking. The prompt use of Dr. Humphreys’ Spe- cific SEVENTY-SEVEN (“77"") will break up the worst attack of Grip and Colds. ' At all Druggists 25 cents, or matled on receipt of price.

Necessity of Replacing the Ex’'sting Measure With Entirely New One. BERLIN, Nov. 23—The Government's preamble to the new tariff bill, issued to | the members of the Reichstag to-day, sets forth the necessity of replacing the ex- | isting ‘tariff by an entirely new one that ' shall not be inferior to that of any other | country in delicacy of arrangement. Pro- tective tariffs, it is added, have con- tributed materially to . the prosperity of German industry and commerce. In con- nection with this prosperity a dislocation in the distribution of, the wage-earninz class has taken place, to the detriment of agriculture. The increase in the wages of agricultural laborers caused by the increase of the wages of the industrial classes has resulted in an almost intolerable increase in the working expenses of the agriculturists. On the other hand, there has recently been a setback in the upward movement of German industry. Whether this setback has reached its lowest ebb or how long it will last can- not be calculated to a certainty. In or- der to avert the disastrous consequences which that dislocation mentioned will eventually have, not on agriculturists alone, but on the whole community, the adoption of effective counter-measures can no longer be delayed. One of the bill's essential aims is to place home agri- culture in a more favorable position by affording it such greater customs protec- | tlon as will alleviate the disadvantages. Although it is not expected that grain imports can be entirely dispensed with it is highly desirable to have the perma- nent home production sufficient for the greater part of the nation’s requirements. In any case the dependence of home price on internal prices will continue. The pos- sibility of feeding the people is being rendered more and more difficult, and this necessity certainly imposes the obligation to exercise the greatest caution. Never- thelesa, should it be found that this bur- den is laid on the consuming public the | burden must be borne, in order that dan- gers far more serious to the state shall be avoided. Respecting commercial treatfes with other countries, the Government is ready, after the tariff bill is disposed of, to enter in due course in negotlations to these ends with those countries desiring to do so. The recasting of the tariff bill will not prevent the country from effectingy new commercial treaties. Nevertheless, ifie un- certainty of politics and of the commer- cial future, the tariff bill provides for more severe compensation measures. Tt is desired that the new tariff become effective Januvary 1, 1904. As, however, there is little probability of new commer- cial treaties becoming operative at the same time, desirable as this may be, the bill reserves that the fixing of the date upon which the new tariff shall become effective shall be by imperial decree, with the assent of the Federal Council.
