PROSPERITY in FULL BLAST.

Prosperity is here, and instead of
chewing the cud of politics the coun-
try should be rejoicing that the fac
tories and mills are working overtime,
freight cars moving with capacity
loads, and the earth giving up, in gen
erous proportions, the necessities Of
life. The Washington, ID. c., Post
thus sums up an editorial in which
the excellent business situation is re-
viewed. The signing of the Demo
cratic tariff bills by President Taft,
the Post says, might have halted this
era of prosperity, but he refused to
sign them, and the cry that the tariff
does not protect the workingman as
well as the employer Is now shown to
be an utter fallacy. The Post con
trasts this condition where every man
who wants to work can find it in the
United States with the condition in
free trade England, where, according
to Keir Hardie, the English labor
leader now in this country, one-third
of the workingmen are facing starv-
|ation.
