In Memory Of Mrs. P. 7. Norton.

Life is pilgrimage: they say,
Ger brief but rugged way;
Every hour of every life
Has it's share of toll and strife;
But there's mingled pleasure and pain
AS the goal we strive to gain.
Now, for thee, the journeys ended,
Unto heaven thy soul assembled,
There received its due reward
AT the hands of Christ, the Lord.
God grant it be crown of joy;
Purest gold without alloy.
Mother dear we're lonely now,
And our heads in grief we bow;
Home is empty, vacant, lone,
Since away from us you've gone.
But we know that you're at peace,
Death was but glad release.
Now that agoniztng pain
Thou shalt never know again.
But within that heavenly land
Thcu hast joined the sainted .band,
And with those who've gone before
Shall praise God forever more.
When in thought we dwell on this
On the happiness and bliss
That await you over there
In that land of love and prayer,
Death seems not a cause of sadness,
Rather is it cause for gladness.
Mother dear, for us thou'lt prey,
Every hour of every day,
That when Death for us shall call,
And beneath his sword we fall,
Our spirits may follow thine
To that land Of life divine,
There to praise our God with thee
Unto all enternity.

Have WRONG POLICY
Proposed Democratic Tariff viii
Not Help Consumer.
Provision for "Free Raw Sugar" Ia
Based on Insecure Foundation
Foreign Growers Alone VIII
Be Benefited.

The senate has reached the key.
stone OF the arch erected by the max
ers OF the Woodrow Wilson tariff bill.
Underwood Of the ways and means
committee has publicly unloaded re-
sponsibility upon the White House.
That is the provision for free raw
sugar" In three years. On this provi-
sion the administration has virtually
staked Its prestige In tariff-making.
The theory of free raw sugar" IL
that to take off the tax" on imported
sugar will make sugar cheaper to the
consumer" That theory might be ten
able and true II the worlds production
of sugar had ever yet reached the vol
ume that would supply the demand for
sugar at prices that all could AFFORD to
pay.
1t is neither tenable nor true be-
cause that point has never yet been
reached. The peoples Of the earth
have always wished. and wish today.
to buy.
1t follows that the true policy Is to
encourage the production OF sugar In
this country, rs 1t has been encour-
aged by Republican tariffs, With the
growth of the domestic industry sugar
has declined in price. As methods are
improved 1t will go still lower--unless
the domestic industry is crippled by
taking away the protection 1t still
needs against cheaper labor and lower
standards of living in other sugar
growing countries.
As the facts stand. the beneficiaries
OF free raw sugar" will be foreign
growers and the refiners of the Allan
tic and Pacific coasts, who will absorb
the present import dnty between them
The consumer" will benefit little, II
at all, and certainly not permanently
For with the Gripping of the domestic
industry sugar supplies will be re-
duced.
The two Louisiana senators have
left their party on a proposal which
threatens the leading industry of their
state with destruction. The Repub-
licans are fighting hard to defeat IL
realizing that n they can knock this
keystone out OF the Woodrow Wilson
tariff arch they will have scored a
great point
The next few days win determine
whether President Wilson's tariff pro
gram will get through congress as !,
came from the White House or will
have TO be seriously modified on less
doctrinaire and more practical lines
