IL an article In the November issue
Of the Woman's Home Companion
Governor Wilson says: <
Democratic government has, the
world over, had deep and far-reaching
results. II has created a new con-
ception OF the functions OF govern
ment 1t Ia not merely that Demo
cratic government Is based. as the old
phrase used to go, on the consent OF
the governed" but that II Is based
upon the participation In government
OF all classes and interests: and
whenever this conception can be real
ized, whenever government Is disen-
tangled from its connection with spe-
cial interests and made responsive TO
the genuine public opinion. through
out the length and breadth OF the
great country, II at once gets new
ideals and responds to new impulses.
II then becomes an instrument of
civilization and OF humanity.
America has so prospered. her en-
ergy has been so great and her
achievement hitherto so easy that she
has not until our day felt the real
difficulty and exigency OF govern
ment. She has not had time, appar-
emily, amidst her various and expand
ing industries, to think of making her
government economical In its admin
ist-ation and eficient at every poit.
as her own business enterprises are.
Every dollar that the government
spends ought TO be spent as carefully
as II the resources Of the country
yerc limited Every dollar OF ex-
penditure ought to mean something
done or provided for the people.
Waste is also weakness. Inefhciency
Lrings confusion.
Il Is part OF the new meaning OF
government, therefore, that It's re-
sources are not to be put at the dis
posal of q governing class or OF any
limited set Of governing influences,
but that those who exercise its au-
thority must keep house" for the
whole people; must use the money
raised by taxes as II II were expended
In trust to produce the best possible
results In the ordering and stimuia,
:ion OF our life.
II Is an interesting circumstance
that government Is becoming less and
less q business for politicians; that
minds and energies OF every kind are
turning toward IL az part of the gen
erai enterprise of life. The reason
we want our government to, be free
from every kind Of private or narrow
control Il that we want to have II see
more things than IL would see II II
served only a. few. Those who con-
duct Il ought to be sensitive TO Inn
pulses from every quarter. The
statesman should sit down with the
philanthropist, with the engineer
wl.h the forest expert, with the stu.
dent OF soils and agricultural meth.
ods. with masters Of technical and
vocational education as well az with
f,nanciers and lawyers and manufac-
turcrs and merchants and those
whose interests have usually been at
the center OF policy. Though he can.
not himself keep the life OF the ma
tion a. whole In his mind, he can

A king OF finance, like Morgan. prob

Under the Payne. Aldrich tariff,
the cheaper the quality of clothing

The tariff tax paid by the coDsum-

In 1910 amounted to $1,000 900, or
an average of $3.50 for each of
