Preach Tariff Reform.

Tn commenting on the statement
of Congressman Champ Clark that
"the house Democrats came out ot
the tariff fight more thoroughly unit
ed on that question than they have
been in q generation, and the Re
publicans came out of worse shat
tered than ever BEFORE" concludes
that the Republicans may look for
trouble il the Democratic party
unites and focuses it's energies in a
steady tariff reform fight.
The Times calls attention to the
fact that the votes of the Democrats,
both in the House and in the Sen
ate, which were given for specific
high duties and prompted by per-
sonal ambition and local interests,
in violation of the principles Of their
party, and in direct opposition to
their party platform, will be used
to embarrass the Democratic party
in any campaign where the tariff is
an issue.
The Times says~"from a Democrat
ic point of view, this is much to be
regretted; but it can scarcely amount
to very considerable hindrance, nr
weaken the party in is position, eS-
pecially as it seems likely in the
next National elections, when repre-
sentatives are chosen, that the tariff
will be made definite issue" 1t
is not impossible, thinks the Times
that the tariff may again be forced
as the issue in the presidential cam
paign Of 1912.
when Mr.. Taft's Secretary of the
Treasury told his friends in Chi
cago. during the hot debate in the
Senate, that unless the tariff was
revised substantially downward there
would be no cessation of agitation,
he told a truth which Mr.. Taft HIM
self would do we'll to heed Whether
the agitation will be sufficient to de-
/ termine the result of the elections

will depend on the condition of hte

How it Hurt.

One of the private cables received
by a New York cotton dealer from
Liverpool on Monday said that "the
South was an anxious seller of spot
cotton at present prices and that
daily offerings were large" This
was given as reason why prices
would be lower as soon as the con-
tracts sold by the farmers were due.
The fact that cotton advances in
price in the face of these outstanding
contracts shows how strong 1t is.
If it was not for these contracts the
demand for spot cotton would be
much greater, and there is no telling
where the price would go. But these
outstanding contracts, which many
farmers have sold, will keep buyers
off the market, unless they can buy
cotton at a lower figure than that
sold in these contracts. They hope
in the meantime that cotton will
decline in price.

Every year the. farmers in the
great grain bearing States call loudly
for $4,000 or more hands to help
harvest the crops and there is usu-
ally disappointment because they
cannot get them. There would be
less difficulty in securing help if the
work were permanent, but as is
it scarcely pays people to leave the
cities at their own cost for two or
three weeks work In the fields.
Probably the solution in most places
will be found in smaller farms and
more diversified farming, both of
which would mean more permanent
hands to each square mile of coun-
try besides producing better tinan-
cal results.

No "Newn Religion Necessary.

DR.. Eliot, eX-presideat of Har-
ward, announces that we are to have
new" religion and he proceeds
to give the world an outline of it.
Dr.. Eliot says:
"It will not be bound by dogma
or creed. There will be no super
natural element. 1t will place no
reliance on anything but the laws
of nature. 1t will not be based on
authority. 1t will not teach that
character can be changed quickly.
It will not deal chiefly with sorrow
and death, but with joy and life. 1t
will not attempt to reconcile people
to present ills by the promise OF
future compensation. 1t will attack
all forms of evil. Its priests will
strive to improve social and indus
trial conditions"
The Hor. William Jennings Bry-
an, in discussing this senseless fad
of a very sensible man, says lit so
happens that this new religion is
the very religion that DR.. Eliot has
practically monopolized for life
time. Its good features have been
borrowed, without credit, from
Christianity and its immaterial fea-
lures need no copyright to prevent
their being appropriated. DR.. Eliot
may be great educator, but his
prophecies are like other uninspir-
ed prophecies-half wish and half
environment,
1T is no new thing to have peo-
pie resent the existance of Divine
standard of conduct-some regard
it as humiliating to confess that a
life can be superior to their own or
to admit that there are command
ments binding upon the conscience,
but the Christian religion has grown
in influence in spite of DR.. ELIOT, and
it will continue to exist even when
his death withdraws the stimulus
furnished by his opposition. II the
scholoraly ex-president would only
include the Bible in his model IL
brary and READ it, he would find
that it does not present religion
which deals chiefly with sorrow and
DEATH" but that it abounds in 10y
and life.' He seems to have over
looked the fact that at the birth Of
the Founder of Christianity angels
sang and proclaimed Peace on earth
and good will toward men,. The
old religion is good enough"

ton. The appointment of supervisor
70 this, the seventh congressional,

In the first district the supervisor
is named Mr.. William ]. Storen Of

who was former postmaster at An
derson, Mr.. Russell's brother.
Mr.. D. H. Russell, Democrat, was

to a well-known and highly respect

the attitude of the Times, and other
newspapers, equally as full of faith
and hearty in their support Of the
Republican party in its pledge to
revise the tariff, indicates very plain
ly that the Democratic party hah
now the chance of its life. A vigor-
Gus campaign of education, inaugn'
rated and pursued without relaxation
would mean great things for the
Democratic party in the next few
years.
1T has become too much the GUS
tom Of the Democrats to accept de-
feat pilosophically, and let down on
their efforts for party power, until
the next election stirs them up again
There is a grand flourish, great
blow of trumpets, and a spectacular
fight each time, but what is needed
is steady work and incessant peggine
for the party principles and tenets.
perhaps the hope which the Hon.
Champ Clark's announcement of the
condition of the party at this time
provides the needed incentive for a
well organized and sustained effort
of the party. Certainly to allow
procrastination and Indifference to
steal away such a chance would
mean nothing short Of suicide
through neglect of good health"
The Chronicle is right. All de-
serters from Democratic doctrine on
the tariff should be retired from Con-
gress and real Democrats sent in
their places. Now it the time to De-
gin the preaching of tariff reform
by the Democratic newspapers all
over the country. AS the Chronicle
says, "what is needed is steady work
