SALVATION ARMY WORK.

The work of succor that the Saliva
ton Army is doing everywhere
throughout the land for the hungry
and homeless is a work of humanity
and should receive the encouragement
of everybody. The hungry and home
less of the land are come closer to by
the army than by any other organ
ization of like character. The
churches are willing and anxious to
relieve distress, and do relieve much
of it, but what may be termed the
outcasts of society, those who are not
allied by sympathy or other ties with
any organizations, social or religious,
they are gathered in by the army and
all done for them that lies in its
power.
In New York the army is. giving
shelter nightly to some fifteen hundred
men. There are no beds, but there is
shelter; and there is a light supper,
not much, but cup of hot coffee and
bread and jelly To men without
homes and without friends this is a
godsend.
The great secret of the success of
the Salvation Army is the human sym
pathy it has for all mankind. When
men are in degradation and poverty;
when life has been failure; when
fortune has forsaken them; when the
future has no promise and the promise
of the past has not been realized, then
it is that men want sympathy, and
then it is that they feel they are alone
in the world. AT such times the hand
that is stretched out towards them to
aid them is almost like the hand of
providence. And extending this hand
to those VINO long for it is what the
Salvation Army is doing. 1t has been
able to reach those classes that other
organizations engaged in similar work
have not been able to. How
numerous this class is, is shown by
the work the army has done. 1t is
really marvellous. 1t has a sphere to
itself, a sphere where few have been
able to penetrate heretofore. That it
has been able to do this has largely
been owing to the fact that those who
have been engaged in army work have
never gone into it as secondary
matter, but rather as a matter of
primary Importance. They have not
done their work in the day and then
gone into a higher social circle in the
evening where those with whom and
for whom they have labored could not
come. And herein lies much of the
army'S great success

TARIFF FIRST, PIE AFTER
WARDS.

Senator-elect Mason of Illinois has
been to Canton to see Major Mckinley
He has seen him, and came away dis
consulate, for it is said he went to
Canton to push the claims of his ILL
nois friends for various federal Offices
1t is also stated that Major Mckinley
gave him to understand that he would
be in no hurry to make changes, and
that he would not consider the matter
of filling minor appointments until af-
ter special session of congress had
been held.
The secret of this attitude is the al
legged determination of the president
elect to see that a revenue increase
that will yield enough revenue to pay
the running expenses of the govern
ment is passed before he gives his at
tention to anything else. If things go
as he intends they shall, the tariff bill
that is now being prepared by the
ways and means committee will be in
his hands for approval by June l. If
he is not disappointed in this regard,
he will then turn his attention to the
matter of making appointments.
1t is much to be hoped that Major
Mckinley will adhere to this pro-
gramme. 1t is definitely known that
there will be an extra session of con-
gress for the special purpose of enact
ing a tariff law. This is a matter in
which the people are deeply interested,
whereas they care comparatively little
who fills the offices. If they are hon.
estly and capably filled it is a matter
of much Indifference to them whether
the incumbents are Democrats or Re-
publicans; but what they are interested
is in a cessation of deficits and a re-
sumption of the reduction of the pub
lie debt. The distribution of pie" is
the most interesting operation posi-
bic to those who are anxiously waiting
for it, but it is not to others, save by
the way of amusement. 1t is a bust
ness that can wait until matters of
greater Importance are attended to-
And this determination of Major Nc
Kinley to postpone making appoint
ments to office until these other mat
ters are arranged, will meet with gen.
eral approval.

THE PEACE OF EUROPE.

The peace of Europe is being con-
tinually threatened, first by this and
then by that. For the last year this
threat has come chiefly through Tur-
key. For a while it seemed as though
the continued massacres of the Ar
menians would precipitate united ac-
ton by the European powers against
Turkey; but they did not. The mas
sacres of the Armenians continued and
the Christian world was shocked, but
the Christian world was not shocked
so much that it did anything to eff
fectually stop the massacres. To have
taken action against Turkey would
have threatened the peace of Europe,
that is, would have threatened war
among the nations of Europe. The
alarm and anxiety over the Armenians
tent, there now comes trouble in Crete
between Christians and Mohammedans.
1t is a racial and religious trouble, and
according to the latest European news
the Christians appear to have been the
aggressors. There have been some
conflicts between them, and the con-
sequence is that the peace of Europe
is again threatened. 1t is 20 years
since this peace was last broken, and
ever since the world has been hearing
almost every spring that the peace of
Europe is threatened, it has heard this
so much that the world has come to
look upon it much as a cry of wolf.
But one daV the wolf came when no.
body needed the cry. Is it possible
that such is the case now? No one
will believe If is

HOME AND FOREIGN MARKETS.

A more or less effective plea of the
protectionists is that a high tariff
preserves the home market to the peo-
pie of this country, and that if it
were not for the tariff foreigners
would capture the home market. This
plea has great weight with those who
are nervously apprehensive about for
eign competition, but after all it is a
very false one, when the facts in the
case are considered. If it is a valid
one, how comes it that American farm
ers and manufacturers can enter the
markets of the world and successfully
compete with this same foreign labor
that is such menace to the industries
of this country? This foreign competi-
ton, of which the protectionists are
so fearful. has access to the worlds
markets and yet Americans hold their
own in them very we'll indeed. 1t is
proposed to revise the tariff that,
among other things, Americans may
have their own market They have
had that, and the markets of the
world to the extent of some 1925, 600, 600
in the last year, that being the excess
of our exports over imports; they
really had this worlds market to the
amount of more than a thousand mil
lions. How is it that the people of
this country can do this against the
competition of the world? 1t is easily
explained. They do it through superior
intelligence and energy, which give
them the power to produce the things
they export at a less cost than others
produce them. What danger, then, is
there that the foreigner will capture
our home market? If he. gets into
it and the people buy from him, they

the United States consumed nearly 1,S00,
COG tons and Great Britain about l 400, eco

rest OF the world put together.
Denver Republican,: The best way for

most the resources at hand. By doing
this they would do their duty, and the

the case of triplets.
New York World: The Dressed Beef
trust fixes the price of all the cattle
raised in this country. 1t controls the
freight rates. Il controls the stock
yards. Even if we imported cattle a pro-
tective duty could not and would not
benefit the stock-raisers, but svould only
put them completely at the mercy of the
trust by shutting off foreign competition.
The proposed duty on cattle is therefore
a sham concession to the cattle-raisers,
and, in so far as it amounts to any
thing, is the payment of Mr.. Hanna's
debt to the Beef trust. which is on his
little list of campaign contributors.
