friends; until the country in its
turn grew suspicious and wondered
how those committees were being
guided and controlled, by what in
fluences and plans of personal ad-
vantage. Government cannot be
wholesomely conducted in such an at
mosphere. Its very honesty is in
jeopardy. Favors are never conceiv-
ed in the general interest; they are
always for the benefit of the few, and
the few who seek and obtain them
have only themselves to blame if
presently they seem to be condemned
and distrusted
Nation Is Wealthy.
For what has the result been?
Prosperity? Yes, if by prosperity you
mean vast wealth no matter how dis
tributed, or whether distributed at
all, or not; if you mean vast enter
prises built up to be presently con-
centrated under the control OF COM
paratively small bodies of men, who
can determine almost at pleasure
whether there shall be competition
or not. The nation as a nation has
grown immensely rich. She is justly
proud of her industries and of the
genius of her men of affairs. They
can master anything they set their
minds to, and we have been greatly
| stimulated under their leadership and
| command. Their laurels are many and
very green. We must accord them
the great honors that are their due
and we must preserve what they
have built up for US. But what of
the other side of the picture 1t is
not as easy for us to live as il used
to be. Our money will not buy as
much. High wages, even when we
can get them, yield us no great COM
fort. We used to be better off with
less, because a dollar could buy so
much more. The majority of US have
been disturbed TO find ourselves grow
ing poorer, even though our earn
ings were slowly increasing. Prices
climb faster than we can push our
earnings up.
Moreover, we begin to perceive
some things about the movement Of
prices that concern us very deeply,
/ and fix our attention upon the tariff
schedules with more definite deter
mination than ever to get to the bot
| tom of this matter. We have been
! looking into it, at trials held under
| the Sherman act and in investiga-
/ tons in the committee rooms of con-
! gress, where men who wanted to
know the real facts have been busy
very clearly what at least some Of

islation of this kind 1t has been built
up, however ill-advisably, upon tariff
schedules written in the way ! have
indicated and its foundation must
not be too radically or too suddenly
disturbed. When we act we should
act with caution and prudence, like
men who know what they are about,
and not like those in love with a
theory. 1t is obvious that the changes
We make should be made only at
such a rate and in such a way as
will least interfere with the normal
and healthful course of commerce
and manufacture. But we shall not
on that account act with timidity, as
if we did not know our own minds,
for we are certain of our ground and
of our object. There should be an
immediate revision. and it should be
downward, unhesitatingly and steadi-
ly downward.
Begin With Schedules.
1t should begin with the schedules
which have been most obviously used
to kill competition and to raise prices
in the United States, arbitrarily and
without regard to the prices pertain
ing elsewhere in the markets of the
world; and it should, before it is fin
ished or inteTmitted, be extended to
every item in every schedule which
affords any opportunity for monopoly

country; until special favors of ever!
sort shall have been absolutely with

! of taxation shall have been trans

mental patronage into a system of jus
and reasonable charges which shall
fall where they will create the leas

( that. we can fix questions of reVenu,
and of business adjustment in a new
spirit and with clear minds. We shall
then be partners with all the bust
ness men of the country, and a day
of freer more stable prosperity shall
have dawned.
There has been no more demoraliz'
ing influence in our politics in oul
time than the influence of tariff leg
islation, the influence of the idea that
the government was the grand dis
penser of favors, the maker and un.
maker of fortunes, and of opportuni'
ties such as certain men have sought
in order to control the movement OF
trade and industry throughout the

RAISING CHICKENS
BY ELECTRICITY.

According to an article by r. Thorne
Baker in the London Times chicken
raising by means of electricity is
highly successful. Experiments with
electrical currents applied to the
growing of farm and garden crops
have been in progress for several
years; the good results obtained there
from led Mr.. Baker to TRIP the ap-
plication of a current to his poultry
yard.
/. The chickens subjected to this alb
normal treatment, he writes, grow to
the same weight with two thirds the
normal amount OF food, they gain
nearly 40 per cent more weight in
three months. The electrically treat
ed chickens are far stronger, and
weakly chicks, which ordinarily would
have died, thrive under the treatment
Most extraordinary result of all, the
chief trouble OF foster mother chicken
raising. a high death rate during the
first few days, Is avoided. The treat
ment Is, said to be inexpensive.
Chicken farming has long had at
tractiveness for many who seek a
back to the land" life. Now comes
a new hope. that electricity may be
the means through which the chickens
will survive and thrive. Fowls that
are hatched in an incubator and raised
by means of electric currents may be
far removed from nature, but they
ought to be just as good eating as
those produced by old-fashioned
methods. If what Mr.. Baker says
proves true in general practice, the
electric chicken yard will be n great
success. 80
