Tnrlff Revision. Tho Washington correspondent of the Chicago Tribune says: Tariff revision cannot be postponed much longer, in the opinion of politi cians here, nnd it would not bo surpris ing if tho first session of the next con gress should enact tariff legislation of a moderate character if the republicans arc successful in the fall campaign. If tho democrats should win it is believed congress at the short session would re vise tho tariff so as to have it done under republican auspices. A majority of the republican members from Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Nebraska, Michigan, Minnesota, and other western states are heartily in favor of tariff revision, The action of tho Iowa convention has brought the tariff question prominently to the front. It is pretty well under stood now among tho republican lead ers that tho tariff question cannot be kept out of the coining campaign in the congressional districts, for the demo crats in their hue and cry against trusts which they insist on making the lead ing issue of their canvass, are constant ly telling the people that tho trusts arc children of tho tariff. How general will bo the necessity for tho republican speakers to meet the tariff issue cannot be foretold, but the action of the Iowa republicans has put it beyond question that tariff revision will have to be much talked about in that state and probably in other parts of the middle west during tho coining fall. Tho same correspondent also says: "Such men as Senator Aldrich, chair man of tho senate finance committee; Representative Payne, chairman of the ways and means committee; Senator Hanna, and Speaker Henderson were opposed to tlie revival of the tariff question at this time. They regard tho present tariff laws as satisfactory, and deplore tho unsettling effect which tariff agitation would inevitably have on business and commerce." If the chairman of the senate finance committee, the chairman of tho house ways and means committee, together with Senator Hanna and Speaker Hen derson vigorously oppose any "tinker ing witli the tariff," it is difficult to sec how any confidence can bo placed in a prediction that tlic republican party will revise the tariff. Tho power of these men is so enormous and the smaller fry of tho party is so tractable that so long as Hanna, Henderson, Aldrich and Payne hold out against tariff revision it is not at all likely that there will be any tariff revision so far as the re publicail party is concerned.

Guthrey is about twenty-five years of age and is charged with the seduction of a woman at Jasper. The prisoner acknowl edges his guilt and will return without re quisition papers, He went to work in the B. & M. shops here a few days ago. Little Norman Newberry met with quite an unfortunate accident Tuesday afternoon. He with other children had been playing with a lawn mower and, remembering that they had been told not to play with it, started to put it up. Norman stooped to take out a strap irom under the mower when his companion, not noticing what he was doing, pushed it forward and cut off the two middle fingers on his left hand just above the nails. A physician was called at once and the ends of the fingers were splinted in rilace. They have not caused him much pain as yet and there has not time enough elapsed to know whether the ends will grow back to the fingers. In the ease of assault wherein Mrs. M. Hood was plaintiff and Clayton Worley, defendant on trial before County Judge Spacht today, tho defendant pleaded guiltynnd agreed to pay all ants, including attorneys' and doctor bills of plaintiff whenyipon tho court fined him a nominal sum and tho case dismissed. This was the case mentioned in the Herald a few weeks ago, the trouble arising over range matters. .McCook Wins Tloth. Tho McCook ball team came up , last Saturday to play two games with the Alliance team and somehow "erruther" the latter didn't seem to be play ing ball to any great extent. Least- wise they did not win cither game. But it is only fair to the home team to state that four of the McCook team have played with university teams and Mr. Jones, who pitched for them Monday, has made such a record for himself that Pa Rourkc has made out papers of adoption for him and is going to make him one of his family next summer. Following Js the score by innings ior Sunday's game: Alliance. ........ ,.,o 0000000 o o McCook..... t 2000 0.5 o 8 Batteries Whitcd and Sitzer, Beltzer and Doan; struck out by Whited, 8j by Beltzer, 8; errors Alliance, 9; McCook, 2.
