sutued hla reply by it few prefatory

when the suffragists perceived Its

The fact is Instructive. It demon
atmtes the appalling extent of railroad
power and the utter helplessness of a
community when Its dearest interests
are Invaded and threatened with com

the situation will doubtless bo brought
about, but that adjustment will In no

Vnder the law granting a railroad
right of way the facility with which

In the ruin of many struggling peo

Tariff on Art.
Oue of the most striking examples
of the injustice wrought by the tariff
is be found In the tax imposed on
the works of art which ootno from
foreign countries to our shores.
Th# theories underlying the tariff
are, first, that of protection against
torelgu competition, and, secondly,
that of acquiring a revenue for the
1 creattun of a fund with which to de
fray the expense of government. In
the ultimate distribution of these
charges it can bp clearly seen that
.rise consumer bears the expense of
this tariff so that In reality he pays
for the privilege of protection uu.ler
the first reason t.ssigned for the tar
iff, while under th«v second, througn
| the subterfuge of acquiring a fund to
defray the expense of government he.
the taxpayer, is contributing his quota
or that fund tn the higher prices paid
for commodities on which the tariff
ts placed. That Is the general sea
lure of the tariff law. and it ia ap
plicable to It tn all Its relation*
In regard of nrttcles of art the
stock-in-trade arguments never did
have, nor have they at any time ac
quired, a force that merited even re
spectful consideration. The objeet of
art 1* an educational one. It culti
vates and fosters a refined taste and
It Improves the general well-being of
those who pursue tt. The only Justi
fiable reason for au Import tax on a
work of painting, or sculpture, or
weaving, or pottery, would be found
in our possession of a superabund
ance of these materials and tha* wv
have not. Indeed, we are deficient in
ii gard of them. Did we have paint
ers, sculptors, modellers in clay and
all their kindred, here in this country,
whose labors would be Interfered
with by a wide open market, there
might be some sanction for an exclud
ing tax. Hut these we have not. The
best proof of our deficiency on this
line is to be found In the fact that
our own artists are the keenest op
ponents of the tariff on works of art.
But there is another argument, nn
argument tn desperation, which is
often hesrd In favor of .this tax.

REVELATIONS OF SHAME.
BY ALTON B. PARKER.
During the past year the country
has been listening, with open, eager
ear. to revelations of the most as
tounding character. In this time we
have become familiar with breaches
of trust, Involving the rifling of graves
and the robbery of widows and or
phans; with combinations In which,
now. one group of financiers, now an
other, has played Its part; and with
pretentious business enterprises,
whose securities were ''writ In water."
The ordinary moral obliquities, so
nommon to mankind, have almost been
lost sight of, while, day after day and
week after week, this disheartening
and seemingly unending story has
been told, until, at each new recital,
the public has been reduced to ask:
;"What next?"
Hut why should there have been
any cause for wonder? When, for
nearly half a century, we have been
binding our manufacturers as appren
tices lo monopoly, why should we be
surprised that ii few of our financiers,
or a hare handful of our merchants
and lawyers, not. only learned the
trade but bettered the Instructions of
their teacher? Having, ourselves,
created the forces which thus threat
en to broHk up the fountains of the
great deep of morals, why should we
grumble, or fume, pr repine? Shrink
ing hack at the sight of our own hid
eous monster, why should we take
counsel of despair?
While, however, we are only reaping
as we have sown. It behooves us to be
up and doing. The effect upon the
world of these revelations must be
as deep and profound as our own trial
has been serious, our shame open.
MARRIAGE ISN’T A FAILURE
(By Kate Burr, In Buffalo Times.)
There Is a business man In this
town who is aggrieved. He doesn’t
like It Realise the married men In his
establishment spend an much flrfie
telephoning their wives to find out
how matters are getlng along at
home.
The other day he was telling hla
tale of woe to a friend. 0
"Seems to me," said the friend,
"that you oughtn’t to kick. It looks
well for your force that they have
such domestic tastes and take such
an Interest In their wives and child
ren. If I were employing a married
man 1 should think It a good sign ii
he called his wife up three or four
times a day. Really, what you’ve been
saying gives me a favorable view of
human nature and more confidence in
my fellowmen.
"Indeed, If I want to hire a new
hand, you'd better look sharp for I
give you fair wArmng I'll be apt to
come snooping around your concern
and try to pick up one of the fellows
who telephone their wives halt-u-dozen
times a day. 1 don't believe a man'
hive that will ever tap the cash-draw
er, make a false entry to cover a
steal, or vamoose some night, leaving
your affslrs In confusion.”
there’s force In what you say," re
plied the other. "Yes, you've put up a
i pretty fair argument. A man can be
about worse business than telephoning
his wife. I know enough of the world
to be aware of that,'and I'll take It
The Wind.
The Wind that made the meadows
dance
Came whistling through the glade.
And all the little blreh trees laughed
And twinkled In the ahade;
Hi tossed a red leaf In my hair.
Caressed each slim young tree,
And left the garden all agog
With gay expeetaney.
Today the Wind came back again-
He marched like men at war.
And dust and leaves and frightened
tdrds
Came hurrying before;
He tramped the meadows under foot.
He whipped the trees to shreds.
And oh, the havoc that he wrought
Among the garden beds!
Next time the Wind comes whistling
by—
-80 airily polite—
I'll run and tell my lady trees
To hind thetr tresses tight;
I'li send a warning to the brook.
I'll bid the rstn-erow shout.
And every garden sentinel
Shall hang storm signals out.

Bad milk, contaminated by carelesi

but when kept carelessly a day, or
even two days. It has billions to the
