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. World

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.

.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
