Why Increase the Coal Duty?

Under the existing tariff bltummOus
coal pays 40 cents Il ton. The DiAgley
bill proposes to make this - cents In
1885 the imports Of bituminOus coal
into the United States were /, 243, S36
tons. The exports Were LAG, asa. The
figures for Canada were: Imported from
Nova Scotia New Brunswick, etc,
1913, 4O4 tons; from Quebec, Ontario,
etc, 39,9S7; from British Columbia,
627. s57; exports to these three divisions
respectively, 4l3 tons, 1,671,3O2 and
S,094. Canada now proposes in case the
Dingley rate is imposed to retaliate by
q high duty Oh our coal, which will
certainly not stimulate exports Here
Is an export business worth twice as
much rs the corresponding import bust
ness. and 1t IL proposed to run the risk
OF running the former for the sake Of
screwiug $3.50. 900 taxes out Of the lat
ter. and this on the plea of reviving
American industry. Can any sane man
fail to see that, even assuming that
imports do not fall off, it is hardly
worth while for the sake of 1paltry
$3.50, 600 to tempt Canada into running
an established business nearly twice as
large as that which is to yield the tax?
Yet this is the way in which ''theold
thing works.

Champ Clark's Wit.

Champ Clark of Missouri is not only
one of the Eittiest men in the house Of
representatives. but he is one Of the
best posted on the tariff question.
In ridiculing some of the rates of the
Dingley bill that to him seemed subject
to criticism, he recited how man Of
the name CT Goodyear went before the
ways and means committee and secured
the tariff he wanted by some skillful
palaver about the great statesmen that
Maine had produced. Then he said:
Mr.. Chairman, that piece Of soft
soap made it harder for every poor
house. Governor Dingley swallowed the
bait as quick as trout would swallow
fly llaughterl, and next summer some
poor devil out west, living in a dugout
100 miles from railroad station, who
voted for Mckinley under the deluded
idea that prosperity would come under
his admin stration and who has not
heard of this tariff bill, ciphers it out
that he can build him two room cot
tage with lumber and other building
materials at the old rate. He goes to the
station to get the lumber and finds that
the price has gone sky high, and he goes
back to his home and says to his wife:
Ny dear, am sorry that we must stay
i'll the dugout. We cannot build our lit
tie house. a great man by the name of
Governor Dingley has put the price of
lumber and other things so high that
we cannot do it, but. thank God, he
has left dragons blood free. Laughter.
Next year, when my handsome friend
from Iowa (Mr. Dolliver) returns to
that fine agricultural district which he
represents, some man who has not been
able to buy :. coat because of the high
price of wooden cloth will say to his
neighbor, There comes Dolliver, who
put up the price Of wooden goods But

Truth is what God says.

He most lives who lives for others.

Don't give track where the bread

When you know what man beile'es

Truth never stays over night in any
house built on the sand.
Never measure any mans plcty by

Woe to that man who has the saloon
keeper for his friend.
One sep away from God is all ii
takes to reach the gate Of hell.
Every failure carries guide book
to success in his inside pocket.
Anybody can say prayers, but only
wor>hiper of God can pray.
When the devil comes to an empty
mind he at once begins to fill it.
No man can do G3d's vii until
