To Make The Congressional
Record a Popular Magazine.
As a really popular periodical
The Congressional Record haa
long been considered an eminent
failure.
Two causes chiefly have con
tributed to its eminence in this
respect—the character of its con
tents and its high subscription
price.
Now it is proposed that both
be changed.
A long speech is a weariness
at hpst, and this even.when it is
heard with the help and inspira
tion that an audience affords, but
when it is set forth in page
after page of cold, unemotional
type, then indeed does it become
as dry and unattractive as a
Kansas drouth.
This is the character long borne
by The Congressional Record,
whose offerings to a large ex
tent havi; not even had the qual
ity of truth to recommend them.
For. ns is known, but not as
generally ns it should be, many
of the speeches published therein
were never delivered, or at least
never delivered in the form in
which they appear.
Speeches may be printed which
never ‘‘found a word for a
wing” and which, if they are
spoken, may he nmended, added
to and generally revised, and
even the oft recurring phrases
(laughter) ‘ and (great applause)-
do not represent real, laughter
or real applause, but are revised
into the poceedings by the alert
congressman for the benefit of
those of bis constituents to, whom
he will have, The Record sent,
under his franking privilege.'
In other words, The Congres
sional Record has heretofore
been entirely toVmuch of a fic
tion magazine. The reform now
contemplated would make -The
Record eschew fiction and cleave
to fact, would make it speak the
literal truth nhifut wlint happens
on the floor of congress.
Undoubtedly this will do much
toward making it popular—not
with the congressional statesmen
thems'elves, hut with their eon-

Illuminating
Reciprocity.
John Shnrp Williams—the fa
miliar John Sharp, whose wit and
wisdom used to entertain and en
lighten the house of representa
tives—has this term transferred
his activities to the aenatr.
And the change aeema iu no
wise to have dulled his wit or
lessened his wisdom.
Both of them lie has applied to
the present status of the reciproc
ity hill on the occasion of that
measure being reported to the
vnate by the finance committee,
with a result that is both pleas
ing and illuminating.
“When I want two things, I
want both.” declared he; "but if
can’t get both, then I want the
one I can get. Not only is it
tme that I would, as original
propositions, favor most of the
amendments offered, but I could
easily write down several hun
dred others that I would like to
put upon the statute. books, re
ducing the burden of tariff taxa
tion upon the people. But I see
no particular sense in refusing to
shoot a rattlesnake because I can
not at the same time shoot an
anaconda. This is especially true
if the anaeohda is not within ef
fective gun range.”
Admittedly, the reciprocity bill
is not everything that ia to he
desired in the wav of tariff re
form, but it is a decided advance
in that direction, and one that ia
capable of being attained imme
diately, and should therefore
have the cadent support of every
Democrat and every insurgent
Republican.
Of course, many amendments
beneficial in themselves might be
offered to the hill, but every one
knows that just now it ia impos
sible for both the bill and en
larging amendments to be suc
cessful.
It is then only the A B C of
wisdom to let go the amend
ments and hold fast to the main
By THOMAS TAPPER.
Every one must be more or less edu
cated. Even the savage can not get
along without learning a good deal
about the world he lives In.
What Is this Education of which we
hear so much? The word Itself tells
the whole story. '•Education" Is "lead
ing out," according to.the meaning of
the-word'as It comes'to us from the
Latin.
. "leading out" is altogether dif
ferent from "pouring In." Indeed, so
widespread is the Idea that Education
means pouring and pounding facts Into
the mind that we have almost lost the
true sense and grasp of the word's real
meaning.
What Is It that Is "led out of the
mind" In Education?
Power.
Education has to do with mind
power, how to direct It and how It
should best he used.
The real man, owner of body and
mind, must, to get the best In life, give
his mind a*stern training. He must
use It In such a way that he, tin mas
ter, can show what he can do.
A man who wants to fly thru the air
must first mnhr an air machine. The
first step, whibli Is the desire to fly
thru the air; lends on to the doing of
ft, If t)ie man keeps at It. The process
Is at.oncfc triple and beautiful.
e (me. dn.vjjhe real man hack of mind
nnd body rps this wish to fly, to speed
thnrthe air ns a bird speeds. 'He
turns this wish over to his mind, say
ing:
"You nnd I will work tills out. I
will, think, and you will do what t
order. Sdthe day we will be able to
make of wood and metal the very thing
work out here In the unseen men
tal shop."
So the man and his mind work over
the problem together until the mind
understands what the man wants. Then
the man says to his mind.
"We have at last worked this out
right. JSbw let us tell the body about
It." -
Then the man and his mind speak to
the body, and tell It to make a model
they are getting a straight in
stead of a doctored account of
their representative’s doings and
savings.
Unless your congressman or
senator sends you The Record
free, you have to pay $8 (or it
for a long session and $4 for a
short session.
A rather high subscript ion
price is this, and when it is con
sidered in connection with-the
usual! character of the contents,
there id no wonder that The Rec
ord’s circulation has never been it*
leaper and bounder.
Now. however. Representative
Taylor, of Colorado, hss intro
duced n bill to lower the. sub
scription price to $1 n year and
to make every postmaster a sub
scription' agent. He estimates
that the subscribers would soon
number 1,000.000.
Tt is an undoubted fact that if
more American citizens were
careful and persistent readers of
the'official account of tho doings
of-their representatives, we would
have a much more intelligent cit
izenship nnd withal a better and
more effective government.
machine.
When this ts done, the man nnd his
mind study Its every part to see tr the
Yiody has done true work. If not, they
begin again. And when, at last, It Is
clear that the rcnl machine la exactly
like the mind model, the man takes his
mind and body with him Into the ma
chine, starts the motor,'and off they go.
In all this, power has come forth. And
power It the one thin* that must be de
veloped by education.
There are many steps to be taken
while the little child grows to be the
man who succeeds tn making a practi
cal flying machine. In that time there
are no end of lessons to be learned.
Every one of these lessons has a single
purpose: to make the mind act, and, by
action, .to gain strength, and. by gain
ing strength, to be able to atore up
power.
In Its effort to make good citizens
the govornment demands a certain
amotini of education of all children.
They learn those first principles of
things which, aa far as we know, best
serve them to become workers In life.
When school days are passed, education
Is supposed to be finished. Books are
closed, lessons are done, the youth Is
henceforth free. i
As a matter of fact, the greatest hook
In the world Is about to be opened to
Mm—the book of life. The hardest les
son Just set before him: how to live
life like a man. The youth Is not free.
NOW. He was freo THEN. Be he rich
and Idle, poor and Industrious; or, poor
and Idle, rich and Industrious, tho re
sponsibility of life Is before him.
III.
Where, then, does Education come
In?
It comes In here.
The desire of the man must be as
high ns his nature—and his nature Is
dlylne.
The mind nf the man moat be trained
. led out” It will be able to deal wltn
his wishes.
The body of the ninn must be his
s»rvant. It must do as he says.
How shall we learn to get this edu
cation?
No one can say definitely, for every
one of us d ffers from every other.
What each must do to let out his pow
er he must find for himself; but some
things are true for us all.
And they are these:
Everything a man Is called upon to
do he can do perfectly; not, perhaps,
the first time, but hs Is bound to do It
perfectly If ho keeps on trying.
Every Job a man Is cnlled upon to do
ts not the end of his work, hut the be
ginning. Every Job has an opportunity

• Everything a man doe* other people

SPELI-S THE MAN. He should take
care that It spells him correctly. The
Job and the thing he makes are photo-
gmphs of his mind.
Tha more care he takes the better
pictures he mokes.
If education teaches a man that he Is
always showing himself up In his work
he has found the true way and mean

school once a week where your people may be taught salesmanship, the his

Fifty years ago there waa not a toothpick mads in this country. All that
