The New Tariff Law.

The President accepts the new tariff
law as a compromise-as, in the circum-
stances, the best redemption possible OF
the party's promises. 1t is the correct
Advertisement of the measure. Everybody
understood at the start that compro-
mise. or nothing, would be the result.
The tariff plank Of the Chicago platform
itself was a compromise, worded with
great care so as to meet difficult situa-
tton. One has only to recall the COM
nJexion and deliberations of the platform
committee of the Chicago convention to
understand the task the republicans had
then in hand.
Will the compromise work? VIII the
new law accomplish what has been prom
ised and vowed i'm its name? That Is the
point now. The proof OF the pudding is
in the eating. If the law proves to be
revenue producer and business thr1ves
under it all the denunciation OF 1t 1nduiged
in by democrats and republican lnsur-
gents at the special session which framed
and passed 1t will speedily be forgotten.
The country wants good results ana. as
a rule. rewards the party which brings
them about.
On the other hand. II the law fails; II
the deficit In the Treasury grows; If bust
ness does not meet the predictions and
expectations of business men, and large
industries show timidity and an unset
tied condition then, necessarily. the tariff
question will become very much alive
again. and campaigning on the subject
occupy attention.
But, in that case. will the country
charge the republicans with the duty of
revising their own work. or turn to the
democrats? What could the democrats
do in the way of early action? The SEN
ate will remain republican in any event
for some years to come and. while re-
publican, may not be expected to accept
q tariff bill drawn by democratic
House. With the Senate controlled by
the one party and the House by the
other. a deadlock would be inevitable.
And what sort of bill would demo-
cratic House pass: Who may say. guild
ing by the democratic record just made?
The Denver platform was repudiated and
open bids were made for protective duties
on the products Of democratic constitu-
encies. Several democrats In the House
and one in the Senate voted for the bill.
in gratitude for favors received and In
confession of a belief In the principle of
protection. But Mr.. Bryan denounces
protection and all its works, and would
insist on having a voice in whatever a
House might propose.
!. The immediate future will be watched
earnestly by both sides for signs. and all
signs will be read with extreme care.

The Value of Trees.
rom the st. Joseph Gazette

The residents Of western cities do not
seem to appreciate the value of trees. as
do those Of eastern cities Nothing adds
more to residential city than showing
of lordly elms or poplars lining its streets.
What more pleasant, during these torrid
summer days, than to ST under the shade
of a friendly tree, either at home or in
the yard OF a neighbor? Some house
holders. OF course, appreciate the value OF
trees. not alone as a means of identifying
ones premises, but as protection against
the heat Of summer and the storms OF
winter, and give proper attention to the
matter of growing them. The great mass
of our western people. however. pay but
little attention to this highly important
matter and for this reason few of our
cities are we'll provided with trees.

The War Game.
From the Boston Transcript.

From the Boston Transcript.
That the war game" as it Is becoming
the custom in this country to call sum-
mer maneuvers, has seized upon the pop
ular imagination is evidenced by the
rapidly increasing enlistments In our
Massachusetts militia. It is picturesque,
it is stirring. To young men who have
had no experience Of marching over fields
and through woods and are without I'M
derstanding Of what is expected OF them,
the war game seems like d picnic in
uniform, trifie strenuous perhaps. but
nevertheless an outing. That these now
ices are destined to come to realizing
sense that there is more work than play
in an Imitation campaign is indicated
by the scheme so far as it Is outlined.
It involves good deal Of lively hiking"
wearisome to unframed legs, the proba-
bilities Of hunger to be relieved only by
army rations. which are novel to the
stomach of purely civilian antecedents.
and a general activity which Will make
it a period Of labor, the very reverse OF
'sanother vacation.

The Parade.

There's a long line of tomorrows

Some will come In shapes OF sorrows
Others will be bright and gay.
So, sonny. jes' look pleasant.

Wait an see what's comm next.
Do not turn your back to listen

Spectral forms will cause depression;
Beauty next will smile sublime:
But it's all in the procession
That is led by Father Time.

The weed condition on our vacant lots Is
none the less intolerable because officials

childhood.
