Reciprocity's Greatest Virtue.

NMark SULLIVAN IN C0lilefS.t
The propelling force behind recipro-
CITY is that public opinion which looks
upon it as first break in the tariff
wall. This fact, to many who are sim
eerely for it and understand it's prob
able effects. constitutes its single vir-
tue. Senator John Sharp Williams of
Mississippi favors reciprocity; Senator
Joseph w. Bailey of Texas opposes it,
The following exchange of sentences
took place between them in the course
of running debate on the agreement:
Mr.. Bailey-He says that the manu-
facturers can combine. and do COM
oihe; and l say that. therefore, they
ought to be the first people exposed to
the competition of the world
Mr. Williamson that | heartily
concur. | wish to God we could begin
at the other end of the line.
There is not in the Senate a more
earnest or intelligent advocate of re-
clproeity than Senator Williams. vet
ne is candid enough to admit that il
begins the work of tariff reduction at
exactly the last point where tariff re-
auction ought to take place. This is
what has moved the INSURGENTS to in
alshatloh and opposition7 reciprocity
leaves all the atrocities of wool. cotton
sugar. and iron untouched. Worse
indeed. Tor If it is to have any effect
at all. reciprocity will make food
and thereby make lower
wages for factory workers and greater
pfohts Tor factory owners possible
rms Is what the Insurgents have
seen: they have been unwilling IN
make this tariff reduction now and Lot
all the others wait for two or three
years. And it must be said that their
EFFORTS are responsible for the present
probability that general tariff reduc-
tion VIII come within very short
time after reciprocity.

At Our Best.

They who in life the most attain.
Their cause on weakness never rest;
Those who the highest levels gain
Seek to be always at their best.
Man is of many sided mold.
And yet our lives this much attest:
We have within the power to hold
Ourselves the nearer to the best.
The man we dread the most to meet.
When comes the hour our strength TO
test.
Is he with whom we must compete
Whose powers are always at their best
The reason that our work is weak,
And not upon the age impressed,
Is that we do not always seek
To keep ourselves up to the best.
Then deem thy strength of mighty
worth,
Nor hold thy weakness as Jest;
They who the most have blessed the
earth
Have always done so at their best

The Engineering News gives an IN
teresting description of an ingenious
device for applying chemicals directly
to water. flowing in pipes under pres
sure. The principle of the apparatus
consists in so regulating the pressure
bv mechanical contrivances that the
chemical solution is forced through
the feed pipe at a rate always proper
tionaI to the existing rate of flow
through the main. The increasing use
of hypochlorite for the publication OF
drinking water makes the subject OF
proper methods of applying chemicals
a timely and interesting one. The
usual method of introducing the disin-
fectant through the suction pipe or
suction we'll has not proved altogether
satisfactory, owing to the injury to
pump valves and other difficulties.
Neither is the new apparatus for in
PRODUCING chemicals into water mains
likely to be popular. until 1t has been
clearly demonstrated that the public is
not liable to receive its chemicals and
its water in separate doses, much as
the Irishman fattened his hog-a
streak of fat and then of lean.

An Endless Chain Broken.

saturday Evening HoSt.)
The Canadian trade agreement calls
upon the farmers of the United States
to step into the breach. 1t means free
trade IN farm products with our most
important competitor The agreement
gives the farmer nothing whatever in
1 the way of direct or immediate return.
Its direct immediate benefits accrue
entirely to manufacturing interests.
All the benefits to the farmer are
indirect and implied For a genera
ton the average rate of duty has been
forty per cent or rather more. The
Democrats revised the tariff in 1894
land under their bill the average rate
of duty was forty-two per cent. The
Republicans revised it the last time in
1909 and under that bill the average
rate has been fortY-one per cent
Whoever was in power and whatever
the platform, the same old ring put
over the same old job. To break the
ring, somebody had to move first. I'm
der the Canadian agreement the far
mers move first. They can well afford
To do SO.
Canadian reciprocity, however, i'm
plies further tariff revision. Certain
motions in the interest of such further
revision recently inspired one staiwart
Senator to declare that If friends of
revision forced the issue, Congress
would he kept in session until October
What if it is If we were a Senate
and had passed the Canadian reciproci-
ty bill We would much rather stay in
Washington until October than to drop
further tariff revision and retire into
the codntry. where a farmer could
reach us with a pitchfork

Rum Press Pity for Gov. Cobb.

She's on the Job from morn till night, she

She has her fads and foilies, but her
virtues are the thing.
She stands for all that's good and true.
and she IS noble through and

o. woman. lovely woman, she would
make a fog horn sing.
She rises at the break of day and dishes
up our breakfast hay,
She scrubs and dresses all the kids and
packs them off to school.
She irons out their Sunday clothes, she
bakes pie and mends our hose,
Then makes a tempting dish of tell and
puts it out to cool.
She keeps on toling all day long, but
huns lifting bit of song,
She sweeps and dusts and mops the
floor and plans the evening meal,
She shakes the furnace now and then,
and makes the bed and cleans the
den,
II man had half as much to : he'd
make an awful squeal.
In times of trouble she is great she takes
the knocks and bumps of fate.
Without a word of bitterness or whin-
ing or regret;
Her stock of patience IS immense, she
makes man look like thirty cents
In joy or sorrow woman is the coun-
try's one best bet.

no such thing as an open bar in Maine.
Saturday he admitted that the prohibit
tory law is violated all over the state,
but says he. so is the decalogue. =

Perhaps it is unnecessary to men
ton that when Mr. Littlefeid was in
Congress Republican officials made
some attempt to enforce the law. AT
the present time, with everybody else
Mr.. Littlefield knows that Democratic
officials, with few notable exeep-
tons. are brazenly and insolently de-
flying public deceney in violation OF
their oaths of office. The former con-
gresham has every reason for
changing his tune" It would seem
that many of the present officials never
even heard of the decalogue.

The opinion of Attorney General
Pattangall declaring that Malaga Is
land is rightfully a part of the town
of Phippsburg has caused considerable
feeling among the people of that town,
many of whom question the legal
points of his decision. They point to
the fact that for many years the island
was regarded as belonging to the
town of Phippsburg. The Legislative
act formerly attaching Malaga Island
to the town of Phippsburg was sub
sequently repealed, and many of the
residents of Phippsburg believe that
the Legislature is unquestionable the
supreme authority and that lacking the
expression of people of Maine them
selves and by repeating the act incor-
porating Malaga in the town of
Phippsburg the Legislature would
seem to have severed the relation be-
tween the town and the island.
