PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY.
New York Globe.)


Being popular has more drawbacks
than comebacks.
It's easy for people to make money
who don't need It.
How some women do chuckle when
a pretty girl begins to fade.
A fool and his money remind one
of a bald man and his hair.
One system OF winning at love Is
systematic fiattery.
More tombstones would tell the
truth about people II left blank.
You'll never stand in with great
men by letting them sit down on you.
A man isn't necessarily polished
just because you see his finish
When a woman hasn't anything else
to do she changes her dress or her
complexion
Men wouldn't have time to earn a
living II they had to put their hair
up as women do.
II a man Is unable to govern him
self Il is MP to him to invest In mar
rage license and sublet the job.
Every city woman thinks she could
mako a fortune In three years II she
! had a place to raise chickens.
No bachelor likes to be roasted, pu
Il IA no more uncomfortable than De

The most important result of the
special session OF Congress Is the re-
Mobilization OF the Democratic party
In national affairs-not from the
standpoint of partisan advantage but
from the standpoint Of the public
welfare.
Il is infinitely more important In
the light Of Mr.. Taft's evident de-
eide, as manifested in his use OF the
veto power to destroy tariff legisla-
ton to reduce the cost OF living.
Mr.. Taft's biunder Is indefensible,
almost incredible. We may say this
more In sorrow than In anger, for 1t
is best for the country that both can
didates for President In 1912 shouli
be excellent men who represent sound
and truly progressive principles. For
political res sons OF his own Mr.. Taft
has deliberately chosen to cast his
fortunes with the non-progressive ele-
mcnts OF his party, arraying himself
in equal hostility TO Progressive
Democracy and its natural ally In
surgent Republicans. Mr.. Taft's
own conduct gives added Importance
to this Democratic rehabilitation In
its relation to the public welfare.
Mr.. Taft's veto policy makes tariff
reform and tariff reduction the burn
ing issue of the 1912 campaign. II
makes a coalition between the Demo
Gratis and the Insurgent Republicans
not only logical but inevitable II the
Insurgents are to retain the flimsiest
threads of political consistency and
conscience. II opens the. way to the
election Of q Democratic president
unless the Democratic party should
destroy its own chances by going to
extremes.
Cur form OF government cannot
successfully be carried on without a
sane, vigorous opposition, and for 16
years there was no opposition in
Washington worthy of the name. The
Republicans controlled the presidency
and both houses of congress. Their
maiorities were overwhelming. The
Democratic minority carried little
political force and less moral force.
IL became hardly more than an at
tachment TO one Republican faction

or the other. and nowhere was It tax
en- seriously.
Democrats themselves had begun TO
doubt the fitness OF the Democratic
party to govern, and when q Demo
cratic house Of representatives was
elected last fall 1t was common belief
that the Democrats would proceed to
make fools Of themselves at the first
opportunity, None OF these pessimis-
tic prophecies has been fulfilled.
Under the leadership OF Speaker
Clark and Mr.. Underwood the Demo
Gratis In the house have followed an
intelligent and consistent course In
respect to all questions that came be-
fore them. They have carried out
their promises with moderation and
common sense. The Democrats In the
senate in the main have followed the
leadership OF the house, and there Is
little I'm the record that requires ex-
PLANTATION or apology.
Had there been a Republican house
no Canadian reciprocity bill could
have been passed, no corrupt-prac.
tees act would have been enacted
no steps would have been taken to
compel further reductions in the
duties that affect the cost of living,
no light would have been let In on
the operations Of the sugar trust and
the steel trust, nothing would have
been done TO eradicate the corruption
that is inevitable when one party Ii
too long in power. Even insofar as
Mr.. Taft has been progressive he
would have been thwarted by the
very elements of his own party with
which he has now allied himself. All
these reforms have been forced by
the mere fact of virile opposition
which could command public support
and confidence.
Thus far the Democratic party has
proved by fits record in congress that
It can keep its head. We have an
opposition again that can intelligent,
