Senator Carmack suggested an
amendment to the resolution provid
ing that preference shall be given
to articles of domestic manufacture
when they 5an be secured as cheaply
as others and spoke in support of the
amendment, holding it to be in line
with existing laws. He could, he said,
see no reason for opening wider the
gates for "graft" as the pending reso
lution would do because there would
be no standard for determining what
is "extortionate or unreasonable."
Furthermore, he interpreted this lang
uage as an admission that the govern
ment is at the mercy of the protected
monopolies. "There is nothing in the
United States laws to prevent .the
protected manufacturers from holding
up the government at the muzzle of
a tariff schedule and compelling it to
deliver," he declared.

EASILY COUNTED
A few years ago there lived in Thet
for.d, Vt., a man by the name of Solon
R. Berry, who" was deputy sheriff for
many years, says the Boston Herald.
He concluded he would like to collect
the taxes. Accordingly he supplied
himself with ballots, and on arriving
at the meeting he selected a man by
the name of Porter to help him. Tak
ing Porter to one side he disclosed his
plan to him and after bracing Porter
UP two or three times, from the hip.
pocket, he gave him the batcli of bal
lots with instructions- to distribute
them at tho proper time.
At last the moderator called for a
ballot for collector of taxes, and when
the votes had been counted an
nounced that Berry had only three
votes.
Of course, "Sol," as he was called,
was disappointed. Finding Porter
alone in one corner of the hall in
quite a contented frame of mind, he
said: "This did not turn out as I
expected."
"Neither did it as. I expected," said
Porter.
"There is something about it I don't
understand," said Sol.
"That's just the fix I am in," said
Porter. "You 'voted fprv yourself and
I voted for you. That . makes two
votes. What I can't understand is,
where did ihat other v vote,, come
from?" Denver News;
