favorable impression is most
important.
Then the MERCHANDISE it

it is being done today more fire.
quently than ever before, be-
cause all advertising writer's
who use their brains realize
that COMMON SENSE is the
most EFFECTIVE ADVERTIS-
ING WEAPON in the world.
Beautiful language, impress

not count half so much as a

Everybody understands sim

Republicans and The Free List

free paris green, free chemicals for
making wood pulp paper. free castor
oil, free soaps, Tree spectacles ana
goggles. free grindstones. and scores
OF similar things, and not one would
the other side concede.
Clearly the Republicans who stood
fast against these tactics, Of precisely
the sort that have won so steadily In
the past, know that their people are
backing them. The tactics were not
only futile; they were foolish. MI.
Mann, stoutly seconded by our own
and only Mr.. Payne. seems not TO see
that they are strengthening the Dem
ocratic party as an agency for sane,
gradual, and helpful tariff reforms.
The people at large will not care
little bit for the traps the extreme
protectionists are inventing. What
they will see. and be mighty glad TO
see. Is that the Democrats In the
house cannot be tricked or goaded
into wild adventures with the tariff,
and that they are sticking firmly TO
moderate. well-planned, practical plan
for the progressive removal OF the
worst failures of deeply rooted sys-
tenn. Every time the Republicans pro-
pose, and try I'm vain to force, de-
parture from that plan they furnish to
the American people new proof that
the Democrats can be trusted not TO
upset everything.
II is true that there is not much
chance that the Democratic plan can
pass the senate at the extra session.
But IL Is far from certain that II can
be defeated in the regular session be-
ginning In December and lasting to
the eve OF the presidential campaign
next year Meanwhile the legislation
for reciprocity with Canada Is con-
stantly gaining support. and the lead
ers on both sides expect its passage
by midsummer. On this measure also
the Republican standpatters are
straining every muscle TO rally the
farmers in opposition. They sent a
delegation to the president to make
a distinct threat that he would lose
the farmer vote II he persisted In
pressing reciprocity. Mr.. Taft re-
ceived them and their threat with per-
feet frmness. He would not yield II
the farmers did desert the party. and
he did not believe that the farmers
would do anything of the kind. He
is right. There Is no sign OF any such
intention, for one reason, because
there is nowhere for them to go. In
deed, the perfect calm with which the
country takes the whole business or
the extra session Is conclusive proof
that the nation Is ready for reciproc-
ity. and quite ready for the next step
toward removing the absurd and cum
bersome tariff bill.-New York Times

These are all states in which agri-
culture Is the predominant interest.
The votes OF their representatives
show how the farmers are feeling and
thinking as TO the hoary humbug or
protection to their class. The bill
was frankly framed for the advantage
OF the farmers. IL takes high taxes
from the materials and implements OF
their industry-bagging, hoop iron.
baling wire. fence wire. wire rods,
farming implements and machinery.
timber. etc. But with equal frankness
IL wipes out the protective taxes on
fresh meats; buckwheat. wheat and
rye flour. corn meal, bran. and other
by.products OF grain. The choice was
fairly and plainly submitted between
keeping taxes nominally aiding them
and removing taxes really hurtful TO
them. on that issue % Republicans
from nine agricultural states cast
their votes with the Democratic party.
And this they do despite the ingenious
and desperate effort OF their party
leaders to make their action as risky
as possible. For 10 long hours, Mr..
Mann OF Illinois. who guided the Re
publicans. piled the house with amend
ments designed not for passage but TO
make an ugly record for the men
breaking away from his party. Here
| Is a partial list OF them:
| Mr.. Mann proposed free tin so that
| free meats might come in manufact-
ured. He asked for free iron and
steel He demanded free dyes and
| tanning articles so that free hides
| ..t,h, n. tannad hare Flo offered an
amendment that no articles manufac-
tured in establishment abroad where
the eight-hour law was not observed
should be admitted. He asked for
free hemp TO go with cotton ties and
bagging. He urged free macaroni and
vermicelli, together with free fours
and biscuits. He tried TO get free
pineapples, free olive oil, free sponges
