SOWING THE WIND.
President Taft says the Aldrlch tar
iff hold-up Is the loveliest tariff bill
ever framed and that the Insurgent
republicans who refused to put on
the collar are very undesirable citi
zens.
It is plain that President Bill can't
remember as far back as the Har
rison administration and thinks he
can sow the wind without reaping1 the
whirlwind. In 1890 forseelng repub
lican leaders and the biggest and
brainiest republican newspapers warn
ed the party in congress that mod
erate protectionists would not stand
for a brace game. The warning was
disregarded and the republicans lost
half their members of the House at
the next election.
When, as now, t?e ablest republi
can newspapers in the 'and, as well
as all the Independent newspapers,
denounce the tariff bill as the be
trayal of a party pledge, when both
republican senators from Minnesota,
Iowa and Nebraska, and one each
from Indiana. Wisconsin. South Dakota
and Kansas. and more than twenty
republicans in the house, vote against
it. the sentiment in the Middle West
Is something to take notice of.
This Aldrich tariff will leave many
a republican stool-pigeon at home
next year. It ought to beat every
man who voted for It. Any pretense
that it was a reduction is disposed of
by the fact hat the New Yorx cus
tom house was swamped with import
ations, particularly cotton and wool
en goods, during the last few weeks
before it became a law. The import
ers knew.
Intelligent republican sentiment on
the tariff, when it Is not biased by in
teres t, was aptly expressed in 1890
by Robert G. Ingeraoll when the Mo
Kinley garrote was being fashioned,
in these words:
"I believe in protecting our Infant
Industries, but when the infant gets
to be six feet hi/;h and wears number
twelve boots, it Is time to withdraw
parental care, especially if he stands
up In the cradle and threatens to
kick your head off if you stop rock
ing." ? Valdez Prospector.
But this 1 know, that every Law
That men have made for Man,
Since first Man took his brother's
life.
And the sad world began.
But straws the wheat and saves the
chaff
With a most evil fan.
? Ballad of Reading Gaol by Wilde.
THE HUMBLE TASKS.
I have studied. I have brooded, and
I've just about concluded, that 1 will
not go a-huntlng for the lost Antarc
tic Pole; other men will have to trail
It; some one else will have to nail It;
some one else must gain the glory
knd the medals and the goal. I would
like quite well to find it; I would
like to get behind It, and to nail the
sign upon it; "Notice to the Public ?
Shoo!" 1 would gladly cross the plau
et, gather In the Pole and can it, but
1 have about a thousand more import
ant things to do. All my daily stunts
are humble, and I often knock and
grumble, thinking that my lowly sta
tion la a most disgusting shame; one
who sweats around and sloshes gath
ering the beets and squashes doesn't
ktHLd a chance of winnlr.3 rught of
glory or of fame. All the work Is
4ull and sordid; when I have the
stove-wood corded, when I've fixed the
sagging fences, and I've carried in
1 he coal, I rebel against the weary
round of toll so stale and dreary, and
wruld like to borrow snowahoes, and
go off and find a Pole! But the
Pitacher says: "Old chappy, you ha>a
made - some people happy, you have
dune your work so ably that It Is
beyond compare; evorythius Is hunky*
dory: tor there Is no KfiHter glory,
than in having done your durndest!
Therefore cease to tear your hair!" ?
Walt Mason.
Taft Is forgotten, even the Jeffries
Johnson controversy sinks into Insig
nificance while the Pirates and Tigers
battle for the world's baseball champ
ionship.
And many false prophets shall rise
and shall deceive many. ? Matthew,
Chapter 24 ? 11.

WHEN THE CRUEL WAR IS OVER.
DEAREST love, do you remember
When wo last did incut.
When you told mo that you lov?d
me.
Kneeling at my foot?
Oh, how proud you stood beforo me,
In your ault of bluo.
When you vowed to me and country
Ever to be true.
CHORUS.
Weeping, sad and lonely,
Hopes and fears how vain.
Yet praying, When this cruel war Is over.
Praying that we meet again.
When the summer breeze is sighing
Mournfully along
Or when autumn leaves are falling
8adly breathes this song:
Oft In dreams I see the? lying
On tha battle plain.
Lonely, wounded, even dying.
Calling, but In vain.
If. amid the din of battle.
Nobly you should fall.
Ear away from those who love you.
None to hear your coll.
Who would whisper words of comfort?
Who would soothe your pain?
Ah. the many cruci fancies
Ever In my brain!
But our country called you, darling;
Angels cheer your way.
While our nation's sons nre lighting
We can only pray.
Nobly strike for Ood and liberty.
Let all nations see
How we love our starry banner?
Emblem of the free.
