iii. WILSON'S NLAsTERY.

In no particular has Pres. Wilson's
inhexible purpose to redeem the
pledges OF the democratic platform
been more apparent than in the revi-
sion Of the tariff, which reached one
Of its final stages yesterday. The
work has been consistently conducted
and practically completed with con-
sEmmate skill.
Pres. Wilson faced a complex sit
uation when he called the special ses-
sion Of congress to revise the tariff.
lie had the unmistakable sentiment OF
the country behind him. but obstinate
and delicate situations in front OF
him. How well he hao managed the
results show.
First there was the natural antagOn-
ism between the two wings OF the
party, the conservative. as represented
by Rep. Underwood. and the liberal,
under the leadership OF Mr.. Bryan.
Then came the opposition within the
party ranks to free sugar and free
wool Republican resistance could
be relied upon. while the progressives
played hot and cold.
Through IT all Pres. Wilson main
tanned a steady hand on the tiller. He
stood pat on the party platform and
his personal pledges to the country.
He made it impossible for all demo-
Gratis but the sugar and wool repre-
sentatives in congress to oppose him.
He did not seem TO crack the party
whip. and yet he exerted a powerful
influence.
And this is the way he did it. When
democratic senators became obstrep-
erous he would say. "A number Of
these gentlemen are men of strong
character with marked individuality
and opinion. but when IT comes to
party policy they are all men who are
large enough to see the Importance Of
subordinating individual beliefs to
their party's welfare"
They could not get away from that.
The president recognized the perfect
right Of these men to hold TO their in
dividual beliefs and opinions. He did
not quarrel with them about it. No
attempt was made 10 belittle. convert
OF GndnEe their VIEWS out Wnen the
party's welfare and, as the president
believed. the country's welfare called
for something contrary to their opin-
ions and views there was nothing to
do but to sacrifice them.
In this manner. by appealing to
the party pride and loyalty Of the
democrats in congress and by invad-
ing the precincts Of the legislative
halls as an evidence of his personal
and official interest in the questions
at issue the president has presented
a solid front TO the opposition and
without undue haste has brought
about the revision Of the tariff in a
comparatively short period.
Pres. Wilson has in this instance
proved himself 10 be master of the
situation and capable of handling it
in a manner that will produce the
results desired by the people.

DIARY OF FATHER TIME.

The earliest period of human in
dustry is called the stone Age, be-
cause in digging about among the re-
mains of the past. archaeolOgists find
relics made of stone always lower
down than relics made of metal.
The ancient savages were marvellous
workers in stone. They knew in each
region what stone was best for their
purpose. They found out where the
material abounded under the best con-
ditions to be worked. They planned
apparatus for mining and quarrying
it. They transported the material for
long distances, half-shaped to reduce
weight, and made treaties with hostile
tribes to secure the right to visit the
coveted spot.
The prehistoric man could tell just
how each kind of stone ought to be
worked, and no wit would do it's
work after it was shaped. To such
a state OF perfection did they arrive
that our most skillfuI fiint-workers,
aided by the finest tools of today, are
not able TO reproduce some of the per-
feet specimens to be found in our mu-
seums
