HYPOCRISY IN THE SADDLE.

It is characteristic of the insincerlty
and pettiness which have controlled
the tariff policy of the Democratic
Insurgent combination in Congress that
the humbug excise-income tax meas
ure sent over by the House Of Repre-
sentatives was passed by the Senate
only after 1t had been encountered
with riders which IL is utterly unrea-
sonable to expect the House TO accept.
The combination did not have the
courage to live up to the principle on
which the temporary union OF interest
was based. Both the Democrats and
the Insurgents professed to believe In
the desirability OF passing an excise
income tax measure Of manifest IN
constitutionslity. But they were afraid
to pass It In such a shape as to In
sure II an easy journey through con-
ference. They therefore permitted 1t
20 be loaded down with irrelevant
amendments known TO be repugnant
TO the majority In control Of the
House.
A tariff commission section and a
section repeating the Canadian reel
procity act Of 1911 had no proper place
: in an excise-income tax act. But the
hypocritical combination In the Senate
fastened on those two riders simply
! because they feared to face the conse-
quences Of their own foOlishness in In
dorsing Mr.. Underwood's fantastic at
tempt to construe breathing as "ousi-
ness" and to impose on such 'busi-
ness" an excise tax measured by the
meaYs which the breather possesses
10 ntinue inhalation and exhaladon
and otherwise to sustain life.
No other Congress has ever fallen so
low as the present one In its picayune
attitude toward grave subject like
revenue legislation. In former days
parties in Congress quarrelled over
tariff legislation with heat and bitter
ness. But they were at least in earnest
IN their quarrels They had convic.
tons which they were willing to live
up TO, no matter what the cost. In
this Congress tariff legislation has be-
come q mere plaything Of factional
politics. each faction aiming primarily
not at curing defects in the existing
system. but merely at putting the
President and the other factions lin
J hole"
Mr.. Underwood set the obnoxious
example Of putting forward revision
schemes ''for politics only" and ne I'M
fortunately found numerous imitators
IN both House and Senate. Not sin
gle remedial act has passed at this
session or the last session, because the
two houses have had no idea Of doing
anything to benefit the people, They
are playing their own petty political
game. which consists Of forcing a
deadlock and then trying to shift from
their own shoulders the responsibility
therefor. It is highly illuminative Of
the spirit in which Congress now e1-
ercises one of its most serious legis-
iative functions that a temporary
coalition IN the Senate can pass an
excise tax bill which 1t does not be-
lieve in and then try to neutralize Its
hypocritical action by tying stones to
the measure IN order to sink II in con-
ference committee. Such flppant
statesmen are only inviting the public
IN lie stones around their neckB.

CHEERING PROSPECTS.
New Year Opens with Mill Conditions
All Most Encouraging.

At the beginning of 1912 there is
satisfaction for the residents of Kill
ingly in contemplating an industrial
advancement here over the conditions
that have prevailed during 1911. over
at Williamsville work is progressing
toward the point where it will be pos
sible to reopen the big plant that has
been idle all Of the past year and the
prospect of a business twice what ever
was before is promised by the men
that have controlled, they it is said,
contemplating the expenditure of half
a million dollars in additions machin-
cry and general improvements.
Some developments may also be
looked for soon relative to the plant
of the DEnieIson Cotton company,
which has been working with a much
reduced force for many months. 1t Is
understood that negotiations are pend
ing, the outcome of which seem to
promise the starting of the mill on fun
time during 1912. Up at Elmville the
Elmville Worsted company will soon
get going to its fullest capacity, add
ing considerably to the prosperity Of
the town
Another new industry that promises
much during this new year is the In
ternatiOnal Cotton company, with a

review of the entire field of man
ufacturing establishments in the town
is such as to hold encouragement for
all Interested in the welfare of KILL
iugly. At Dayville, Attawaugan, Bal
louyille and Pineville the mills are all
on fun time This is also true of the
Connecticut Mills company's plant in
Danielson this being a rapidly grow
ing concern, which is getting in much
overtime work, and also of the mills
of the Quinebaug company, which,
while over the river in the town Of
Brookly, are the sources Of a large
