A Bluff at Revision

THE rumored program OF the Republicans to rush through tariff
revision during the short session o. Congress. opening in December, will
avail them nothing, should the leaders OF the party decide upon SUCH
a desperate maneuver.
The people OF the United States have been too deeply stirred to be
deceived by any aim-Ham tactics a the eleventh hour of the Republican
patys retention OF power. Betrayed into the grip OF hundreds Of trusts
formed and fosercd during the incumbency of Roosevelt and Taft and
the rule of Republican majorisies in the Senate and House. they have
placed their hope for relief in the Democratic party. They will lot be
fooled now by the Republican leaders who laughed at their plight wnen
Democratic succes seemed rs far away As the millennium.
A farcial alteration of the tariff in the approaching session would be
consistent with the bluff and buster by which Roosevelt always adver-
tsed his attacks by the way, that he entrusted o tn corporation law
yers he appointed to conduct the attorneygenerars office.
1t would be in line with the colonies continual preaching about the
necessity OF revision at the right tme'-and the right time" did not
come during the eight years that he occupied the White House and had a
Congress willing to take his orders.
1t would have about the same color of sincerity as Tafts desire
for revison-a desire he proceeded to crafty by turning the job OF evil
sg over o such a jealous advocate of popular rights as Aldrich.
The Republican party must bear the responsibility of the tariff as it
wa written and given to the country in the infamous -Aldrich law
The country looks 10 the Democratic house of representatives that
will take Office mex March. If the Republicans hope to sa anything
from the wreckage, they would be wise to give the President and Sen
ate majority the tip o take their che from the action of the lower house.

MACK VOTED REpUBIIcAr

That is a pretty good one on
Chairman Norman E. Mack of thu
National Democratic Committee
tells on himself. It happened
on election day. In New York state
the voting is done by machinery.
Mr.. Mack touched the wrong L..
yer and into the box went a re-
publican ticket. A laughable In
cident at first, but serious con.
sequences may follow, according
to the New York Post, which has
this to say of Mr.. Mack's predi-
cament:
1t must be confessed that the
situation In which the chairman
of the democratic national COM
mittee finds himself is difficult
Last Tuesday, while alone with
the voting machine, Mr.. Mack
pulled the republican lever by
mistake and thereby east q
straight republican ballot. IF he
had keep quiet, all might have
been well, but the joke was such
a good one that he told on him.
self. It did not appear then to
be very serious matter. But
it meant good deal, for had
Chairman Mack S vote been cast
as he intended it would have Ell
ected Charles Bennett Smith to
congress by two majority over
Representative Alexander, his re-
publican opponent. As it was it
was counted for Alexander, and
leaves the election a tie. Smith
will contest on the ground that
some of the machinery were tam
pered with, and doubtless a dem
ocratic house will seat him. But
it was a close shave, and Smith
is inclined to blame Mack for it.
And some people who are always
figuring out ifs are picturing
the awful responsibility that
might now rest on the demOcra-
tic national chairman if the cleo
ton had been a closer one and II
democratic control of the nation
al house of representatives had de-
pended on getting one more de-
mocratic member. !"

Progressive Farmer.

At Salisbury, Nd, where we
have long had smooth shell roads,
they are bing replaced with tar
macadam. A good rock founda-
ton is laid and rolled tight with a
ten-ton steam roller. Tar is spread
over this, and a layer of finely
broken rock is spread and rolled
tight into the tar; cover Of fine,
sandy clay is then rolled on, and
there is road as smooth as a floor
and thirty feet wide. I can re-
member when land along these
roads, when the roads were deep
sand, could be bought for So to SO
an acre. 1t cannot now be had for
less $500 an acre near the city, and
you have to go out good many
miles to get it for 500 an acre,
and the good roads have done
more to make this advance than
any other one thing. know one
farm four miles out that in my boy
hood was on an old sandy road
where now there is smooth maca-
dam. It sold then for $1,000, and
recently for $4,000 and it is
not any more productive than
when it sold for $2,400. So much
for good roads over which it is fun
for the rural mail carries to drive,
and easy for the farmer to haul his
produce. Good roads pay better
than anything the public money
can be invested in. They raise the
taxable basis but the tax now
paid by farmers in the wear and
tear of teams and wagons is more
than any increase In taxation
would be. And yet, there are far
mers who kick against taxation for
good roads. AS a rule, low taxes
indicate low values and lack of
prosperity in a section, and | have
always noticed that where the tax
able basis is high, the farmers are
better off and more prosperous,
and farming better. Years ago
I met an Ohio man looking
for land in North Carolina.
He asked what was the tax
rate in the country districts. and
on being told, he said that they
could not have good schools at
that rate, and he did not want to
come where they could not have
good schools.
