NEW3 FROM
WASHINGTON
Picsiilent Tall has expressed bin--
t-elf, recently, as not. so well pleated
. ()ieBti
mle nf the Senate re
ward I lie tariff bill. The members
i.f the Finance Coinmifiee bnve con
sulted I lie President from t ime to
lime, regarding certain foatoiea of
their substitute, and for the provis
ions relating to Imports from the
Philippines, the proposed customs
0 'tinned iho n:ax:mntn, minimum
clause, they have won his unquali
fied approval. With regard to spec
ific rates, however, Mr Tnft has not
been consulted and the Senate lend,
era have contented, themselves with
general assurance?, to the President,
of their sincerity of pnrp-ise so to
frame the schedules as to commai d
bis approval. It Is not at all clear
whether President Taft's desire to
oommend all that was commendable
has been misconstrued, or whether
the erroneous impression has been
g -i i it d that his satisfaction with cer
t iln features of the measure would
offset his disapproval o( tbe schr
ilnles. In discopsing the tariff tecontly
wilh friends the Pi evident has
frus.kly deplored the fact that tha
men on whose ass;st'inee he should
be, able to ri ly, to ii.sure an adequate
revision ol the Dingley lob's, are so
unwilling to snhnnihiat their local
interests to the national welfuro
snd arc selfbhly insistent on tbe
maintenance of high duties on those
commodities most produced In their
respective rtates.
The President is keenly alive to
the importance of exieditious work
by the two houses of Congress; hn
realizes to the full the embarrass
mi nt to the business interests of tlm
country which is tlio inevitable eon
oon.ltant of uncertainty regarding
the t n t i ft rates ; bat be is no less ap
preciative of the fact that the prea
ent tariff revision will, or should, be
of such a character as to forestall all
rr:isonnbla agitation for another re-
adjustment of the schedules for a
decade or longer. Under these cir
cumstances he places the interests of
tnj consumer for that period against
tho immediate necessities of tbe
business man, nod from the rompar-
Uon he arrives nt the conclusion
that, for purely economic reasons.
it is better to prolong the present
situation even by a veto, if that be
necessary, than to have written on
tbe statutes an inequitable tariff net
Senate leaders are rather disposed
to dismiss with little consideration
all intimations of the Presidents dis
satisfaction, and they go so far even
as to assert that only those who are
making the tariff can form any ade
qtiHte conception of the difficulties
as to the form tho measure will as
sume after it has been submitted to
tbe fire of the conference. However
that may bo, tbe Chief Executive
has a keen suspicion that the un
equivocal expression of dissatisfac
tion, on the part of loyal Rnpubli.
cans, with the Senate's work tbus
I far, can only promote tbe ultimate
formulation of a measure which he
cn cordially approve.
The Republican members of tbe
Fiinnce Committee have completed
draft of tbe section creating the new
ariff bureau. This bare-uia to be
formed by consolidating the existing
hmrnus of statistics and ir.unufno
twers, now under the supervision of
lie. Secretary of Commorce and
Laker ; tlio bureau of trade relations,
now a part of tbu Department of
State and the division of customs,
at the Treasury Depart meut. The
ii. -w bureau will bn Hindi a part of
t o Treasury Department, and an ad
ililiit'ul Assistant Sc-cre;ury ct th
Tr. usury will b pr vided for who
will have immediate Jurisdiction
over it.
A second section of the Senate
irihstilute provides for special ogontrf
to be appointed by tho Prc.-ident to

NOTES FROM
SANDYSTON
A ramble in the woods by teacher
and pupils of tbe Layton school on
the 26th ult I presume constituted
Arbor Day.
Tbe pupils were delighted with
their outing.
New Jersey has added another
day to its list of holidnys. .
October 12th is the new one, and
will be called Columbus Day. We
now have 12 holidays and that is
enough.
The Weather Report for April is
kas follows :
Average Max 69.9, Average Min
33.33, Max Set 49.00, Highest Temp.
85 on l!)ib, Lowest 18 on 11th, Great
est daily range -13 on on 6th., Rain
fall i 10 inches, Snowfall 8.00 inches
Clear days 18, partly cleur 7, Cloudy
5.
It Is a pitiable sight to see a minor
staggering along the street so drunk
that he can hardly walk, the efft-nt
of partiis supplying him with cider
and if in sight of a hotol the blame
is laid upon the landlord.
Lester Warner, son of Goo Warner
of Layton, left on Saturday morning
to accept a position with a relative at
Etlenville, N. Y.
Tho sale of Mr. Ferguson to C. E
McCracken of the house and bluek-'
smith shop nt Layton was perfected
the past. week. Mr. Ferguson will
vacate tho dwelling on tbe 15th inst.
but does not know whore he will lo
cute, He is a first c!as workman.
Now Jersey law makers have
made some queer laws, and among
them is one requiring all gunners to
take out a license, even to hunt on
their own binds. Another pormits
the Committee of any township to
appoint 3 men or women to bo called
a B inr.l of protectors for tho preven
tion of drunkenness. This board
notifies all sellers of intoxicating
liquors not to sell to the persons they
naui. Fust fine $50, second tlOO
and third J.0U And license revoked.
A third law requires all vehicles to
carry a light ut night, and this Is n
good law.
A fourth law makes it. a niisde-
meaner to spit in any public build
iug, or upon any sidewalk. Tobacco
obewtrs will take notloe.
Friday last w is a peculiar doy, for
we had rain, snow hail and thunder.
The snow averaged about 8 inches
in depth. On the 28th of April 1874
we bad a similar snowstorm, only it
staid with us longer
Mr. Estill Vandermark and wife
of Layton have the sympathy of
tbiB community in the loss of their
infant ohiid on Wednesday last.
