control to prevent any real tariff
reduction.
While the progressive element
of the Democratic party under
Bryan's leadership triumphed at
Baltimore, the party itself was di-
vided. The defeated reactionary
bosses retired to their several
states in full control of their local
organizations. On the Demo
cratic ticket in these districts
boss-Selected candidates will be
owned by the high tariff interests.
The party is therefore sure to be
divided if any serious attempt is
made to do away with the plum
der which the interests represent
ed by the Democratic bosses now
enjoy.
This is exactly what happened
after the Democrats carried the
election of 1892 upon exactly the
same tariff platform as it has this
year. This history is almost GER
tain to be repeated unless Cover
nor Wilson is able to dominate
the situation. Can it be fairly
said that Governor Wilson is
more powerful figure politically
than Grover Cleveland or any
more likely to dominate divided
party? There is nothing to show
that he can. In New Jersey he
was unable to hold his party in
the legislature to the passage of
a single important measure which
he favored.
Consider now the Roosevelt
progressive party tariff program.
We favor the principle of a pro-
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1912-10-08

improperly favored by the pres
emf, tariff law, and we favor a sub
stantial and immediate downward
tariff revision.
The method of tariff-making
and of tariff administration
should also be changed. Protec-
ton should be allowed only on
the theory that such protection
will serve to keep up the wages
and the standard of living of the
wage worker in the industry pro-
tected, with full regard for the in.
tereSt of the consumer. No duty
should be permitted to stand I'M
less the workers receive their full
share of the benefits in the pay
envelope.
A permanent commission of
non-partisan experts should study
scientifically all phases of tariff
making and of tariff effects, with
authority to examine closely all
correlated subjects, such as what
any duty costs the people in the
price of living, the wages and
conditions of labor and life of the
workmen in any industry.
This is a sane, rational and
hopeful program as long as the
national revenue is to be raised by
tariff duties. The almost infinite
number of facts to be considered
in framing a tariff bill are no
where accessible, yet are neces
sary to any intelligent action.
This is the fundamental condi-
ton of every great enterprise and

NEW APPARATUS AT
SCHADE SANTTARIUM

Prof W. j. Schada has just in
stalled two fine new pieces Of app
paratus in his sanitarium. The most
wonderful of these is known as Stein q
Extension Apparatus and is used as a
remedy tor all joint troubles and
especially for stretching and
frightening the spine. The ap-
paratus is constructed from European
ideas and Prof Schade tells Us that
this is the third that has been con-
structed in America.
FRANK s. Betz. an American, who
has offices at Hammond, Ind, with
branch Office at Chicago, went to
Europe and was given permission to
take number Of blue prints of the
extension apparatus. He then re-
turned to America and has begun the.
manufacture Of the apparatus.
It has a removable table made of
oak, divided in the center, which can
be removed after the patient is in
position so that the bandages can be
applied readily. The frame is made
entirely of wrought iron with brass
trimmings. nickel plated. There are
extension screws for the head and
limbs beside four for the body.
Another piece of apparatus con
structed from the same material is an
invalid walker which will aid great
~ in AL cases.
Prof Schade has expended over
$3.50 in new apparatus for the sani-
tarium and he will now be able to aid
many patients in regaining perfect
health.
With an institution carrying g.
complete line of equipment for the,
treatment of all joint troubles, locat-
ed here in your own city why should
you go to larger cities to consult some
great specialist who in many cases
has done more harm than good.
