HIGHER DUTIES
ON WOMENIS WEAR

lively, and ju.t as the senate was
an amendment to be known as para
graph S45s, for the sole purpose, as
he stated, of having it printed for con-
sideration, which increased the duty
on laces and other products of the
Levers or Gothrough machine. At has
request the paragraph was printed
without being read.
Saturday, June Goth, Mr.. Aldrich Of
fered very different amendment, al
though numbered the same, which, in
answer to the question of Mr.. Bacon,
Mr.. Aldrich stated had been printed, a
statement Which was manifestly mis-
eading. This amendment differed
rom that offered the previous day by
adding not only eTbroiderics. but also
including nearly all machine made
laces. He stated in explanation that
the amendment put specific or COM
pound duties upon certain classes of
laces, that it covered only laces made
| by machine and did not cover hand
made laces at all. In the brief state
ment made by the Chairman of the
| Finance Committee the fact that the
amendment included embroideries re-
manned undisclosed, and without de-
bate the amendment in that shape was
adopted by the senate. Sandwiched
i between the consideration of para
graph 131, this amendment covering
according to the statement of Senator
Aldrich. importations valued at $780,
100000 a year, was adopted apparent
ly without consideration. AS matter
| of fact the duty paid upon the importa-
ton of laces and embroideries during
the year 1907 amounted to nearly $780,
100000, the volume Of imports being
almost S50,000000. The proposed duty
is only specific upon laces costing
less than sc dozen yards on which
it ranges from 20 per cent. the same
rate as imposed upon the highest
class of machine made laces, up to
$50 per cent, I'll e duty being higher as
the cost of the lace diminishes.
The mysterious working of the FL
nance Committee in regard to these
articles is further shown by the ignor-
ance of some of the most prominent
members of that committee regarding
the contemplated increase. For in
/ stance, as recently as June 18th, Sen
ator Lodge wrote: The lace para
graph has been agreed to in both
senate and house and will not be
changed. The old law remains" 9th
er members of the Finance Committee
have stated that as far as they knew
it was the intention of that Committee
to retain the Dingley rates.
Thus the senate is endeavoring for
the sake of a few overprotected manu-
facturers to lay an increased burden
| upon the women of the land which on
laces and embroideries alone in pros
porous year would amount to more
than $4,000 900 above the $50, 900, 900
which they have hitherto been paying
as a tribute to the domestic manu-
| facturer.

Charity should not make paupers,
Here again we have an application OF
our general principle that should
prove very useful in testing the value
of the work of charitable societies, and
the wisdom of the practices and poll
cies of individuals who think them
selves charitable. Strength and not
comfort is the end which we should
rank highest among the good things
which we coyet for those who look
to us for help. Charity is to relieve
distress, as the police system is to pre-
vent crime, but it is equally essential
that it should guard effectively against
the perversion of its function. 1t must
not itself multiply the occasions for
its exercise.

parently determined to make the wo-
men of the country bear the chief
burden of the tariff increase. The
latest effort is shown in the success
full attempt of Mr.. Aldrich last Fri
day and Saturday to raise the tariff
on laces and embroideries from the
present rate of go per cent, which is
the highest that has ever been i'm
posed under our laws, to rate vary
ing from 20 to $50 per cent. This
latter rate falls upon the very cheap
, est laces imported, laces that in the
European market sell at less than 2
cents per dozen yards.
The increased duties are not coafin-
! ed, however to laccs. but are impc sed
equally upon all a. 81 les of which laces
form even the most insignificant part,

compelled to bear this additional bur
Z den.
\ The senate classes laces as luxuries
: and quite possibly the hand made laces
with which the families of the SEN
r ators are familiar may be classed as
r such, but the cheapest grades of laces
B and embroideries, which the poorest Of
the poor feel the necessity of using,
: hardly belong to that category.
. The plea that an additional protec-
!. ton is required by domestic manu-
= features could hardly be put forward
with a straight face Marshall Field
& Co, who own one Of the largest
7 lace manufacturing plants in this coun-
! try at Zion City, Illinois, in a letter

industry is now fully protected, or

Lace Company. at Elvria, Ohio, whose
: factory has been in operation but little
over year have, as a result Of their
first years business, established their
/ stock on a ~ per cent. basis, and that
during one of the worst business years
+ that the lace trade has ever known

The method by which the proposed
increase was passed in the senate Is
! not without signifance. Paragraphs
345 and 346 covering the duties on
laees and embroideries had twice pass

The school should not make its pu-
pills inefficient. The function OF ed
ucation is to pass on to the growing
generation the accumulated achieve
ments of the race. It's aim is to put
the next generation on the shoulders
of the present, both in respect to earn
ing and producing capacity, and in re-
spect to powers of enjoyment. The
life for which children are to be pre-
pared is one of work and of leisure.
They should be made efficient in both.
The school which makes misfits, eth
er vocational, or simply as living, ra-
tional human beings, compelled daily
to choose between good and evil, and
between the good and the better be-
longs with the hospital, the prison, the
police system and the charity, which
miss their natural calling. The school,
whatever else it does, should not make
misfits. This is not the whole philos-
ophy of education, but it is good be-
ginning of it. The axiom which is-use-
full when applied to other institutions,
will at least help us to determine
whether the most elemental and fund
amentaI of all tests, whether it is per-
verting it's function, whether it is pro-
ducing inefficiency instead of strength.
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1909-07-06

Churches should not create an in
difference to religion. Missions should
not make bread lines. Recreation
should not deyitalize. Politics should
not undermine good citizenship. Re-
tail trade should not result In the ex-
Dloitation of the consumer. Child-sav-
ing agencies should not exhibit an ex-
cessive mortality. State labor depart
ments should not. neglect to make an
ineligible report in regard to the fac
tory conditions subject to their super
vision. A federal investigation of the
labor of women and children should
not be unable to make reports of pro-
gress from time to time, like the bull
letins of the census bureau, and thus
be compelled to present its results in
bulk long afterwards when the facts
upon which 1t reports are perhaps no
longer or interest or value.
The perversion Of social institutions
is oftener than not the result of
thoughtless or Indifferent direction.
Those who ultimately pay the bills for
their creation and maintenance have no
desire that hospitals shall make peo-
pie sick, or that prisons shall make
criminals, or that charity shall make
paupers, or that factories shall make
workingmen unemployable.
