 NEW YORK, Mar. 16 Trading dur ing today's sess.on was marked by considerable irregularity. An effort was made to depress prices during the early trading bat offerings were well absorbed and attempts of short to cover their commi .mcnts, resulted in general reeoveries.
 It was thought for a wh le that the presidents message on tariff would not be submitted to congress today. but after it's announcement, trading became vigorous and prices advanced sharply vita the close near the best prices of the day. The significant portion ofs the message was the refer ence to the government deficit which would seem to preclude the poss bility of drastic revision except in few in stances.
 The fact that the message was sub mitted tended somewhat to ease the strain whica had been apparent for a long time and as soon as the schedules prepared by the ways and means com mittee is submitted there will un- ,oub,ediy b. an effort on part of the p-aders.

The Broken Promise.

In his apology for the Payne-Aldrich-
Smoot tariff act President Taft said,
as The Argus has before quoted. that
it was not "a complete compliance with
the promises made strictly inter-
preted He signed il because he be-
lieved it to be "a sincere effort on the
part of the republican party to make a
downward revision"
Ii is amusing to hear the republican
editors who lack the backbone and in
dividuality to stand up and fight on
the side of La Toilette. Cummins, Dol
liver, ct al, try TO justify this rank
reputation of pledges. platform and
promises.
Here's the way the New York World
sizes it up:
THE republican party promised not
an attempt, but an act; purpose. but
result. 1t had and has the power; it
was and is responsible. Its candidate
for president and the interpreter of its
policies did not promise a sincere eff
fort to make a downward revision
That would not have satisfied the peo
pie. He interpreted the platform to
mean revision downward within the
limitations of the protective principle.
He was the party spokesman; his was
the official reading of its pledge.
1T was for revision downward that
the people voted. They have instead a
sincere effort at downward revision
There are those who fear that Mr.
TaftS good nature misleads him even
as 10 the sincerity.

man whose personal pledge the voters
accepted and honored, is not com

HumOr and

THE WINNING PLAY.
By DUNCAN n. SMITH

IF when you are busted
And down at the heel
You just make a noise like success,
Then things will be coming
In bundles and bales
And marked TO your private address.
Prosperity's signboard
Is all that you need
To fool and confound the elect. =
A front that is naughty
viii make them sit up
And notice the splendid effect.
"fis not to possession
That come the rewards.
Though ownership isn't so bad.
It's making the rabble
Believe you are there
With every old thing to be had.
Though it may resemble :.
A confidence game,
1t wins at the drop of the hat.
Pretense is a winner,
And nothing there is
That's quite SO successful as that.
There's nothing succeeds like
Success. SO they say.
But that is little mistake.
A good imitation,
YOu'li very soon find,
OF all of the parts will partake.
It's pleasant to know that
Your little account
Is full to the brim with the stun.
But IL it is lacking
You need not despair.
