REPUBLICAN PROSPERITY

out yesterday principally because O,
low wages and intolerable conditions
the leading stock issues of the conn
try are more or less shot to pieces
and the fact of the matter is that
prosperity is not upon us to any appre
ciablc extent. Another fact of prac
tically the same matter is that the
country has never recovered from the
panic precipitated by one Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt in the year 1907
when he was president Of the United
States. Mr. Roosevelt played his
hand rather recklessly and the inter.
ests come to the conclusion that NAV

words the panic.

TARIFF RESULTS TO DATE.

Some startling surprises have been
brought out by the report OF customs
receipts during the first full year Of the
new tariff law. The imports we're larger
than for any corresponding year, and
the value Of goods entering free OF duty,
has been larger than ever under the
Wilson Bill. The comparison of the
Payne Law since its adoption with that
of the Dngley, Mckinley and Wilson
laws shows forty nine per cent Of the
total imports free of duty under the
Payne Bill, against forty-four per cent
under the Dingley Bill, fifty three per
cent under the Mckinley Bill, and forty
eight per cent under the Wilson Bill.
There is now disposition to wait till
the test is made and the returns are all
in before condemning the tariff bill that
has so upset the calculation of polti-
clans, pro and con.-From affairs at

Re-maklno Of Our Bodies.

From the fact that every few years
we get a perfectly new body through
out from the continual dying Of old
body cells and new cells taking their
places, thus constantly giving our
selves an entirely new living mantle
of flesh, If not a new identity, that
which seems surest and most secure
to our faculties really waves and
fluctuates with treacherous changes,
and we ourselves slide away from our.
selves and are none the wiser. While
the spirit or inner man stays unchang.
ed In the midst of all this hourly shift
and change like a lighthouse In q
whirling change of sands and waters,
the mind alone of all the man has the
power of being constant. Strange we
cannot make a single living thing, yet
we ourselves are undergoing form
Of reconstruction and death every sec
