Those who are urging that the tariff needs revising are pro. bably 110t ' overlooking the fact that there'is now being shipped into this country an averag-c ac h month of more , than twice the quantity and value of co upettng goods that wer im ported , under the last revised democratic tariff law. Tbey surely should not overlook this fact. Any lowering - ing of the tariff in directions which even under present duties are largely increasing f reign sales and sbipments to this country would evidently result in prompt results depressing and disastrous to American factorie and mills aud shops. Thefe will be demands for lugher dut ies as well as efforts in the opposite drcction : when the ta.riff IS to be revised , but it would scem to be for the general good to have the present satisfactory situation Utl- disturbed in eitber direction so long as it remains satisfactory. New Method to Fight Liquor. The Kansas Anti-Liquor Society - ciety has opened an office in Kansas City , Mo. , from which it is dh tributing , free of charge , a pre cription for the cure of the liquor habit , also one" for the cure of the tobacco habit. Either prcscription can be-filled by any druggist. 'l'be only request the Sockty makes is , th.t ; people sending for the prescriptions will not sell thew , but give free copics to their friends. Either pre. . scription can be given secretly. More than 500,000 of these pre- criptions have been sent to people who have writt"n for them. Parties wishing either or both prescriptions should address the Kansas Anti-Liquor Society , Hoom 200 Gray tndg. , Kansas City , Mo. , and inclose a stamp. There has been a constant fight in Kansas ever since the state went prohibition to reopen it tc the saloons. . . - - - The Difference. : It's the 'way'the millers' have : and they have t e way bec us ( of a trust. or to be more polite. . an understanding , they hav ( among themselves in regar. t what prices they , will make or : flour. Wheat advanced a feVj cents on tile bushel and in almost the twinkling of an eye p wenl the price of flour 20 cents on th ( on hundred pounds. And DC doubt most of the flour that h now on the market was manu. factured before any advance ir : the price of wheat was m de. U I on the other hand , the price oj wheat bad dropped a few cents it would have been severa weeks/if ever-before the prici of flour was reduced 20 cents pel 100 pounds.
