ARE TALL MEN STUPID?
Seniuses of the World Have All Been of
Medium Size.

Medium Size.
DR.. l. Potter, an eminent German ply
sician, has been making some interesting
observations regarding the stature of in
dividuals and the relation that exists be-
tween height and talent and genius. The
doctor finds that not only persons with
considerable talent but the geniuses of
the world have all been of medium size
or less Says the Boston Post:
Among statesmen he points out Attila,
Cromwell, Frederick IL, Napoleon, Gam
beta, Thiers-all Of whom were of very
small stature. Jesus Christ, too, the doc
tor says, according to the Talmud, was
built in small proportions; so was Paul.
Among the great artists the short men
were Raphael, Michael Angelo, Titan,
Leonardo da Vinci and Mcneil among
the musicians, Richard Wagner, Handel,
Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Schu-
mann, Schubert, Brahms. Nearly all the
poets were of small stature, particularly
Dante, Victor Hugo and Heine. So were
Ceryantes and Rosseau.

enough examples of arrested business development
brought about by early savings to bring the point
strongly home to me. Through boarding earnings and
perhaps making few early ventures In speculative
chances that proved successful, many young man has
acquired a bank account that beyond his capacity

TARIFF BOURBONS & the PEOPLE

lumber, showed that he could take
broad view Of the tariff situation
when he said that he would like to
have the tariff on cotton goods so
high that no foreigner could make
a shirt to be worn on the back of the
man in Mississippi who produced
raw cotton, says the Chicago Record
Herald.
This is the stone wall theory
carried to its logical conclusion. 1t
should apply, of course, to lumber
as well as to cotton, and to every
manufactured article that is made
in the United States. IIt would not
only prevent competition from the
foreigner, but put a stop to importa
tons and to revenues from customs
duties. With such perfect protec-
ton the government would he de-
prived of about three hundred mil
lions annually.
Mr.. Fordney, however, is not the
first advocate Of the theory. 1t has
been suggested by other standpat or
Standpatter statesmen in moments
of patriotic enthusiasm. The lum-
bermen who wishes to prove his I'M
Sclfishness sets no bounds on his
generosity to the cotton manu-
facturcr, but he would not object if
the cotton manufacturer should re-
ciprocate. This, in fact, is the kind
of reciprocity to which we are used.
When it is carried on unostenta-
tiously it is called logrolling, and
in the framing of new tariff bill it
is the greatest possible menace to
the consumer. If he is not very
alert the logrollcrs will patchsup an
arrangement to suit themselves and
not give him the benefit of single
compromise.
The discussion of the Payne bill
has reached Il point at which the
public must look out for Just such
an arrangement. Even the reduc-
tons that are provided for are
threatened, while the interests"
will be quite willing to consent to
the undeservcd and indefensible in
creases. 1t Is plain, therefore, that
the consumer must he prepared to
give battle if he is to receive any
consideration at all 1t is plain al
So that his cause is the governments
not only because he represents
majority of the people in the fight,
but because the more thoroughly
the interests are satisfied the greater
the decrease in the revenues will be.
The campaign should be carried on
with such determination that even
the United States senate must feel
its force and bow t. the will of the
people.
