FRIENDS OF PAYNE TARIFF LAW
OVER-JUBILANT.
; Measure Really Ha# Not Had Any Def-
inite Te#t That Might Determine
Its Value—Wise Course to Sus-
pend Judgment.
When the sub strengthens and
blazes in the sky and heat becomes a
factor to reckon with in dress, and
.everything else, millinery must be cool
looking or it will fail to be attractive.
All white or combinations of white
■with black, give us the crispest and
best effects for the dog days. But
white set ofT with a bit of scarlet,
deft blue or leaf green is smart and
effective also, and may be chosen in-
stead of white with black.
Black for day time wear is not cool
looking except when made of the thin-
est fabrics, like lace and net. The big
black hats of hair braid or pyroxyllne
^re lacy in texture and the admiration
And the darling of the summer girl’s
heart. This season they belong to the
“mystery*' class; those hats that come
down over the head, veiling the eyes
and showing the profile from one side
only. The corday hats of net and lace
j or those made on the "helmet" shapes
J have captivated as many as the big
drooping picture hats.
A lovely hat for the hot weather is
shown here made of dead white chip,
| overlaid with black Chantilly lace. A
grouping of four immense roses in
tulle and silk is mounted across the
front, they are almost colorless with
a blush of pale pink at the edges of
some of the petals. The effect is of
millinery as light as air.
A pretty sailor for practical wear is
trimmed with white wings and a coro-
net of plaited ribbon across the front.
The shape is a Milan in the natural
pale yellow of the finished bat. All
the trimming is pure white and a
crisp satin faced ribbon is chosen for
making the plaiting.
A floating washable lace veil Is
the thing generally worn with these
sailors.
Perhaps It will be recalled that the
recent Ohio Republican convention de-
! dared, in effect, that the Payne law-
had justified the expectations of its
friends—which we have no doubt, is
true of its real friends, such as the
cotton manufacturers—and had con-
verted a national deficit into a surplus.'
The convention was a remarkable
body, but in few things more remark-
able than this. It was pointed out in
the News that but for the receipts
from the corporation law, which may
have to be returned to those from
whom they came, the treasury's work-
ing balance would today be less than
$4,500,000, the smallest in years. The
excess of expenditures over receipts
for July, the first month of the present
, fiscal year, exclusive of the Panama
canal account, was more than $11,000,-
; 000, as against $15,000,000 for the
same month last year. Including the
Panama canal shortage, the unfavor-
able balance mounted to $1S,610,000.
It is true that the fiscal year ending
with June showed a surplus of ordi-
nary expeditures of about $15,000,000.
Counting In the Panama canal ex-
penditures, there was a deficit. But
there was an extraordinary increase
of revenue the last month of the year.
: It Is only fair to add that July, which
shows a deficit, is always a bad month,
the drain on the treasury in that
month being unusually heavy. But
still It appears that the surplus for
the year was very small; that there
was a deficit In the canal disburse-
, ments be counted in; and that July
PROFITS FOR RUBBER TRUST
Shrewdness of Senator Aldrich in
Framing Schedules of the Payne
Tariff Law.
The Aldrich-Taft tariff put crude
rubberjj^the free list, but increased
the im^^Aduty ou manufactured rub-
ber. I^^Hone imagines this was not
for the bffleflt of Mr. Aldrich’s inter-
continental Rubber company, we com-
mend hlrr. to the customs returns.
For the Hist 11 months of recent
fiscal years (the federal fiscal year
ends June 30) the imports of manu-
factured rubber were:
1908 .......................$1,S16,692
1909 ......•...... 1.247.763
1910 ........................ 1,053,246
While this shrinkage of Imports of
manufactures was taking place the
imports of crude rubber jumped from
$35,198,750 to $100,343,547.
In other words, by removing the tar-
iff from crude rubber Mr. Aldrich
secured for himself and his friends of
the rubber trust raw material that
pays not a penny toward the support
of our billion-dollar-a-year administra-
tion. By increasing the tariff on man-
ufactured rubber he reduced the Im-
ports of rubber goods and secured for
his rubber trust a noncompetitive
home market and the privilege of
charging the American consumer
more for his goods than they ate
worth.
Thus does Aldrich, the tariff maker,
put money into his own pockets by
means of a tariff, to which President
Taft, pledged to relieve the people
from the tariff burden, not only did
not object, but which he was so anx-
ious to sign that he rushed from the
white house to the capital and waited,
pen in hand, for the new bill to be
presented.

officials evidently do cot wholly share I the country? Does it pay for one see-
the optimistic views of the cheerful | ‘ion to appear more hoggish than
standpatters who engineered the Ohio
convention. On the contrary, the
treasury people are a good deal wor-
ried over fiscal conditions, particularly
when they consider them from the po-
litical point of view. It Is even said
that were it not for the money derived
from the tax on corporations the ad-
ministration would today be facing a
bond issue or a resort to the issuing
of certificates of Indebtedness. Yet
we were assured by Senator Aldrich
that no form of extraordinary taxation
ever when other sections are angrily
charging that It already had three feet
in the swill trough of government tax-
ing favors? Still, looking at the worth
! of tariff protection to New England
from the Lodge standpoint, the
chances are that this section will pay
dearly for that gratuitous cotton tar-
iff grab of last year. It has already
been a large iactor In developing re-
bellion In the party of protection and
the end of that is not yet. The next
tariff revision is likely to be conducted
by the western radicals, and then it

Oklahoma City, Okla.—By an exeeu
tive proclamation issued Saturday,
Governor Haskell has called upon the
people of the nation to co-operate in
the eleventh annual convention of the
National Good Roads association. The
convention will be held at the State
Fair grounds October 4, 5, and 6, 1910.
In his proclamation, Governor Has-
kell urges (he co-operation of every
governor, mayor and civic and com-
mercial organization in the country.
Each has been invited to send dele-
gates. The appointment of delegates
is invited by the officials of “every
state, county and city in the United
States, and by every agricultural, auto-
mobile, commercial, educational, good
roads, industrial, labor, transporta-
tion and women’s organization in the
land. The Oklahoma delegation, it is
hoped will be particularly large.
The good roads movement in this
country was launched a good many
years ago, but due to certain outside
influences has never been successful
in obtaining a hearing from congress.
Indeed, no federal appropriations have
been forthcoming for this purpose for
years. It is this condition that l’resi-
dent Arthur Jackson and his organ-
ization propose to remedy in the im-
mediate future. The Oklahoma City
convention, it is thought, will be a long
step in that direction, as it is the pur-
pose of the organization to carry its
tight to the floor of congress next win-
ter. A small initial appropriation will
be asked.
With congress once committed to a
good roads policy, the friends of the
movement do not fear for the future.
The river and harbor improvement
propaganda was started in this way,
and under the guiding genius of Pres-
ident Ransdell of Imuisiana, has as-
sumed proportions heretofore un-
dreamed of. At the last session of
congress many millions were appropri-
ated for the improvement of the na-
tion’s waterways.
Friends of good roads think public
highways of greater importance than
water highways, and hence their confi-
dence in the present contest for rec-
ognition in Washington.
One of the biggest gatherings in the
history of the organization is expect-
ed. The last convention was held at
Topeka and was considered a record-
breaker, but the Oklahoma City gath-
ering will in all probability excell all
previous efforts in that direction.
call the Kansas man various kinds of

exposition.” as the old negro preacher
had it, but It is scarcely convincing
to the mind of the average citizen.

In the first half of 1907 the total
contribution of British investors tc j

000,000. This is actual new invest- j
ment, and does not include refunded

Far from weakening the British
financial position seems to be growing

Consumer and Producer.
But when there is a drop in the
prices of raw food the consumer
does not get the benefit. Farmers
are getting one-fifth to one-sixth less
for cattle and hogs than they got
last winter, but the consumer has
had no reduction. Milk goes up in
price at the time of year when it
should be cheapest. Eggs present the
same condition. The conclusion is
that there Is so much money in hand
