Grover Cleveland urges Democrats
to try tariff reform. Tariff reform
is the issue that will clarity the atmos-
phere, solidify the friends of Democ-
racy and bring victory to the party"
according to the sage Of Princeton.
Mr.. Cleveland gave the country tar
III measure when he was President.
From that day to this Congress has
been overwhelmingly Republican. Mr..
Cleveland Is a poor adviser. His coun-
trymen will never place this nation un-
der free trade rule. Free raw materi-
ais" was his shibboleth, and the DEM
ocrats who produced free raw materials
made short work Of the Democratic
program.-Dallas (Texas) Herald

President Wilson believes evidently
that the country would be better of
without a protective tariff and without
organized labor. With all due respect
to the distinguished educator, 1t may
be said in all truth that neither the
tariff nor the labor unions will be done
away with in his day and generation.
Both have been and are great factors
In the life of this nation and are des-
tined to be more so.
The tariff system undoubtedly does
have injustices and inequalities that
should be corrected, and the labor
unions are not always right, but they
stand for great principles, and make
for the prosperity of the whole people.

PRETEXTs FOR DIVORCE.

R1 HE st. Louis judge who has just expressed
judicial degree OF Impotence with the
! silly preteXts for divorce which often
k-u4 brought before him, expresses of the
GHVMs1S most profound facts of the grievOus stua-
tlAsJ ton which is called by courtesy the divorce
problem" That there is such thing as
divorce problem in the world is not to be denied, but
1t is not raised in of twenty which are
brought into the courts for settlement The statutes
OF nearly all OF the States leave judges with little
discretion The word "incompatiblity" is very broad
and inconcusve one, and be made to or at
least is made multitude of acts, either mutual
or on the part of member of unhappy pair to-
ward the other indicating perversity obstinacy selfish
other things which may be aggravatng but which
raise problems for judicial settlement.
The Biblical ground of divorce, cruelty and IMPROVE
dence the only which the should be called
to consider. 1t may be safely assumed that husband
who drags his wife into court trivialties which
real man could easily compose with a real woman LACKS
those elements of manhood which would make living
with him desirable tolerable. This is equally
true of a the that a capable of
such an act has lost that feeling Of regard wife should
hold toward the of her joys and But
divorceis another question Let those who cannot live
together live apart but let them feel that the marriage

A goodly number of people congre-
gated at the music store of w. G..
Baker, on West Center street Sat
urday night TO witness in operation
the newly invented music turner, pat
ented by Mr.. Edward Dorward, of
Windsor street.
The automatic turner proved a
success in every detail. 1t can be
attached to any kind of piano or or
gan and will hold and turn sheet
music of any size or kind. 1t is
light, strong durable and ornament

tion that a child can easily operate
1t.
Mr.. Dorward has had several
tempting offers to sell his patent
but has pretty well decided to or
ganize a company and manufacture
the turner here. There seems to be
a great demand from musicians for
the machine and it will be placed
on the market As soon as possible.
