HALCYON DAYS.
When the cosl is in the cellar, and you’ve money in the bank, [Not Tom's] And the job you have is pleasant, and you’re neither stout aor lank; When the mornings In October are all beautiful and bright. And you own the bouse yon live in. and yonr liver is all right; Oh, It's then that life's worth living, and the effort’s worth your while. And it’s then that you may bravely throw your sbouldera back and smile With compassion for the foolish and with pity for the crank, * When the coal it In the cellar and you've money in the bank. There’s something mighty beautiful about this good old earth When there’e nothing you’re ashamed of In connection with your birth, And your hair Is staying with you and your lungs are good and strong, And your teeth are sound, and nothing in the world is going wrong. He would be a churl, an ingrate, who could •It around and whine When each morning in October was the finest of the fine. And bit children were so lovely that he never bad to apank, And his coal was in the cellar and he’d money in the bank. There’s a thrill that’s coming to yon when your brassey lifts the ball. Which goes sailing over bankers for two hundred yards to fall At the edge of where the green is, and then rolls and wriggles up Till at last it stops within about two iucheß of the cup, And this helps to keep a fellow from believing life Is vain, From deciding that the profit isn’t worth the wear and strain. Makes him rather think that living has its bright side, to be frank, When, with coal piled In the cellar, he has money in the bank. Life is not a useless hardship when you have no rent to pay. And vour income is sufficient to keep trouble bribed away, When your clothes are made to fit you, and your head is good and clear, And tbefe isn’t anybody in the world you need to fear; When your home is filled with sunshine and a lady who can please Helps to make the office cheerful as her fingers hit the keys; When your face is still unwrinkled and you’re neither stout nor lank, When your coal is in the cellar and you've money in the bank.
THE DUAL TARIFF PLAN
Olive Branch the Reformers Offer Stand Patters. THE CONCESSION IS WORTHLESS. German and Other Prohibitive Hutto Make a Bad Outlook For American Prodnoern —in til Voter* Are Ready to Fleet Real Tariff Reformer* High Price* Will Continue. The Republicans who met at Chicago for the purpose of deciding upon a plan to reform the tariff evidently are not yet prepared to seriously break with the stand patters. The decision to demand “a dual, er maximum and minimum, tariff” from congress is a useless concession to the protectionists if anything is expected to'be accomplished. It Is merely a threat of reprisal against and other countries which have raised their tariff wall against our products nud will hardly induce them to lower it. The only way to invite trade is to wipe out, at least, some of the restrictions that the present tariff law Imposes on the countries that would like to sell us their products and buy ours. The protectionists’ idea of a maximum and minimum tarifT is to make the present exorbitant tariff rates the minimnm and add 25 or 50 per cent to those rates for the maximum. That is what Secretary Shaw is reported to advocate, and Speaker Cannon, the Home Market club and the Protective Tariff league and their supporters probably agree with him. But as Secretary Blaine told McKinley when the tariff bill known by bis name was incubating and proposing to Increase the rates of duty, “Not a dollar of Increased trade will be fostered by it” Neither would there be by this proposed dual tariff unless rates are reduced. Every voter who detests the exclusion theory of the protectionists which has fostered the trusts and their high paices will of course rejoice that the protective tariff is attacked by “friends of protection" who have hitherto beeu silent participators in the wrongs committed. Governor Cummins and those other representative Republicans, aa the great majority of the Chicago convention were, by their protest will greatly help the cause of tariff reform In drawing the attention of the people to the breakdown of the protection theory. They have recorded the fact that the American farmer and American industries can no longer depend exclusively upon the home market; that If our exports are not encouraged both our agriculturists and our workmen will soon be unable to find a market for their surplus products except what England can buy, and us all countries ar* dumping their surplus products on the English markets the price there la the lowest anywhere. The Republican majority in congress may stand pat and refuse to revise the tariff because the protected monopolies and trusts so liberally divide with the politicians and party managers a share of the plunder “to keep the boys In line,” but when the protection shoe pinches a hit harder and farm products decline In price and wages decline, as they surely will, then the voters will arise to the occasion and there will be* another revolt, as there was In 1884 and 1882. The protectionists would gladly concede a dual tariff as long aa they have
the power to make the rates, but they have no Intention of surrendering a particle of their private gain by the tax they levy on about all the people consume. There is only one thing that will ever move them and that Is the adverse votes of an outraged and plundered people. And until the reformers are prepared to elect tariff reformers to congress how is it possible to expect relief? Governor Cummins himself doubtless voted for John A. T. Hull, who represents the Des Moines district and who Is an ardent stand patter, and until be is ready to defeat Mr. Hull with some good, honest tariff reformer his work is useless. You cannot reform the Republican party on the tariff issue as long as it gets part of the graft that the tariff supplies.
Addicks Eliminated.
What Is known as the Union Republican party In Delaware has thrown Addlcks overboard. Senator Alle, who has been Addlcks’ chief lieutenant In bis many senatorial campaigns, has served notice on him that the Union organization will not again support bis candidacy. As the expenditure of money and the purchasing of votes have been the chief strength of the Union Republicans, this overthrow of Addlcks is an indication that there are no more Addlcks barrels to be opened, so his camp followers deserted him. With the Addlcks barrels eliminated, the Democrats will have a good show of carrying the state.
The Tariff Sacred.
“If the president hopes for tariff revision next winter,” says the Springfield Republican (Ind.), “he will be pained to see emphatic remarks like this in such good party newspapers as the St. Louis Globe-Democrat: ‘Whatever else is done in the coming session of congress the tariff will not be touched.’ Sacred Is the tariff! It Is, indeed, sanctissimus.”
A Fair Flan.
The declared purpose of the Republicans to force Arizona and New Mexico into joint statehood, which the people of Arizona undoubtedly oppose, can be fairly settled by providing that a separate referendum vote of the people of each territory be provided In the enabling act to decide the question.
RAILROADS AND PEOPLE.
Corporations Rely on Republican Party For Protection. The railroad officials evidently think they are above all law and can defy the courts with impunity. Perhaps this was to be expected when President Roosevelt decided that railroad officials were not to be prosecuted for breaking the interstate commerce law, but only the corporations were to be proceeded against. The following railroads are charged with violation of the anUrebate law aud the injunction issued by the federal court in March, 1902, namely: The Chicago and Alton, the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, the Missouri Pacific, the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific and the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway companies. The charge against these corporations is giving 25 per cent rebates to the harvester and salt trusts. If the railroad officials were prosecuted instead of the corporations this rebate iniquity would at once cease. As it is, the only punishment that can be meeted out to the corporations is a comparatively small fine, but the officials could be imprisoned. A few railroad magnates or trust barons in stripes would effectually deter others from breaking the law. There are two things needed to get a square deal between the railroads and the people--first, the divorce of the partnership between the Republican party and the railroads, and, second, power given by congress to the interstate commerce commission to establish a reasonable rate in place of a rate that has been decided as unreasonable. It is almost impossible to expect these reforms as long as the Republican party is continued in power.
Primary Election Plan.
In connection with the selection of the Democratic nominees for senator, governor and other state officers in Virginia the Baltimore Sun (Ind.) says: "While the people did not assert their power under the convention system, it is undeniable that they have come to the front since the primary election plan came into operation. In Virginia and in other southern states the primary was needed to revive interest among Democrats in state and local contests. It has undisputably had this effect”
Jnstice Lags.
The postoffice scandal still hangs fire In the department of justice, and George W. Beavers, who was one of the first indicted, has not yet been tried. Is the administration afraid to bring Beavers to trial? There also seems a disposition to lag in the trial of the beef trust magnates. Perhaps next year, when there is a campaign on, the president may wake up his attorney general to the delay of justice-
A Useless Key.
That “open door” to China seems to be closing rapidly against us after all onr years of diplomacy to keep it open. Wbat value are the Philippines, the key to the orient, to us if they will not unlock the door that our goods may enter?
A leg Puilling Scheme.
We may soon look for an Interview with Representative Babcock demanding a reduction of the tariff on steel trust products, if he tntenda to be a candidate for chairman of the Republican congressional committee. ' This way of pulling the leg of the trust worked to a charm In 1888-02 and la not to be despised at the present Junctors.
YOUR EMPLOYER’S SUCCESS IS ESSENTIAL TO YOUR OWN.
“I am working for my little ten dollars a week, 1 ’ said a workman to his associates, “and I don’t care whether this business makes any money for Frank Smith (his employer) or not.” The statement reached his employer’s ears and when Saturday night came the workman was given his cheok and dismissed without notice. It is a mistake for employees to take such views of things, no matter how or where employed. A man cannot render good service to his employer unless be takes an interest in doing his work right; and if he takes an interest in doing his work right, it will afford him pleasure to see the business flourish. Not only that; it will make a better man of him. It will eradicate all hatred, jealousy and discontent from bis heart, and will make life more pleasant and enjoyable, and if there are opportunities for advancement, the man who takes an interest is the one who will be promoted. Simply patting in time without doing yonr work is the poorest kind of policy for any man to adopt.
