THK TARIFF THKX AND NOW
The difference between the pub
lic attitu'lo upon the tariff In Cleve
land's day and Wilson's day la well
Ulustratod by tho way the tariff
I 111. under party platform pledge,
emerged lrom Congress In Cleve
l\nd's time and under the Wilson
AdmlnUtrrtlou. Under the Cleve
land resimo the experience was lit
erally heart breaking. Cluxeland
the stuffed club freely, but It
amounted to nothing, and men like
Senator V*st. of Missouri, who en
tered the tight in perfect good faith
and believed everything was on the
sqare, emerged from the contest so
i vsrwhelmed by the duplicity of It
all, the dishonesty, palpable fraud
end thi entangling alliances of
many members of Congress, that he
never recovered the energy which
ho poured forth In the groat strug
gle and tho hoalth which he lav
lined In trying to carry through u
llll In accordant with tho plat
form pledge* of the party.
This yearerorythlng slides throug
ns though greased. Back of the
bill la a public sentiment that will
not bo trifled with. In the evolu
tion of things everybody has found
out. what only a, few at one time
believe!, that the tariff In late year*
ia an exhibition of aelfiahnesa and
rapacity which In the passing years
h?a become brazen almost beyond b<
li?tf. Evoryoue now realize* that
:iw whole ctuutry haa been under
t 'ibute "or tho benefit of relatively
,i few gte.sty manufacturers who
have through their own rapacity
brought about their downfall. Hence
the work of routing them this y?w
was easy aud the task was accom
plished without waste of1 time or the
expenditure of too much energy.
We Are anVnhappy People

ICAf There is noth
ing the matter with
heT physically. Her landscapes
and mountains are perfect.
What is the matter with Amer
ican men and women t Some
thing has been wrong. Every
man thinks he knows what is the
matter with America, and that is
one of her curious ills. As a machine advances in complication it takes
more patience and intelligence to operate it So it is with civilization.
The AVERAGE MAN IS WORSE OFF THAN HIS FATHER.
Irritability is the enemy of patience. In the day of our fathers they
returned home at night after wotk. They either sat at home or per
haps went across the street to Bill Joo?a' home and played cards.
TODAY WE RETURN HOME IN AN AUTOMOBILE. WE RUSH
INTO A DRESS SUIT AND SEARCH FOR THE MISSINO COLLAR
BUTTON. WE RUSH DOWNSTAIRS TO AN EXTENSIVE MEAL; WE
RUSH TO A THEATER; WE RU3H TO GET SOMETHfNQ MORE TO
EAT; WE RU8H BACK) WE RUSH TO 8LEEP. IT IS A DAY MADE
UP OF CONSTANT IRRITABILITIES.
Patience to he effective must be backed by virtue. Our exccsa of
irritability and our LACK OF PATIENCE has brought ns to ono
of tho great questions of the day ? divoroe.
We of today are an unhappy people, and the trouble is that we
HAVENT FOUND ANYTHING PERMANENT. Wo see the
continual ah if tings of life, and we become RESTLESS. This perma
nent thing which we need is SPIRITUAL LIFE. You can't legislate
it into people.
