The Democrats at last have awaked
to their sponsiblltieS i'll congress and

blame if business is not done.--Duluth
Commonwealth.
Ex-Speaker Reeds rules are being
vindicated every day i'll the house or

can sit in his seat and not be counted as
present for the purpose of making
observation-disclosures Republican.
AS the tariff debate has been going Oh
some fifty years without any sign OF
drawing to close, it is just as we'll to
take vote OH the Wilson bill Jan. 20 as
any other time. The discussion wouldn't
be finished, no matter how it was pro-
longed.-Duluth Commonwealth.

AS we have previously observed, it is
easy enough to raise the tariff duties,
but an almighty hard matter TO cut
them down. We trust the Democrats
in congress will brace up and carry
through this needed reform, i'll spite of
the factious opposition of interested
parties. Independent.
Until the passage of the tariff bill OPP
erationS for the future will naturally be
uncertain and embarrassing. Delay is
necessary evil. but il should not be
| prolonged for day beyond the time
needed for careful discussion. ClamOr
| will end when congress shall have
acted. Rochester Record and Union.

| CrOoksIon Times.
We hope enough at least of the Wilson
tariff bill will go through to knock off
! the 81 per thousand protection ON lum-
| Der. Certainly our Northwestern lum-

there is no good reason why the strug-
| Cling settlers of the Northwest should
longer bear that burden. There is no
| class of men Oh earth growing wealthy
faster than the lumbermen.-Wa
Radical.
