Doing Things Right.

To do things right with all your
nights good motto; I've pasted
thut inside my hat, and if you don't
you'd ought to. To do things right,
as leads your light; with faith and
hope abiding; to do your best and
let the rest to Jericho 60 gliding
With such an aim you'll win the
game and see your fortune founded;
and goodly deed beat any creed
that ever man expounded. To do
things right to bravely fight when
fate cuts up unfairly, to pay your
way from dayto day, and treat your
neighbor squarely That doctors
fill all wants and stills the doubter's
qualm and terrors, and guides him
straight at soodly gait through all
the fields of errors. To do your
best, within your breast a cheerful
heart undaunted-that is the plan
that brings a man things he ever
wanted. At finding snares and
nests of mares | am not very handy
but when it comes to finding plums
folks say am a dandy; and my re-
ceipt is short and sweet. and easy
one to follow; just do things right
with all your might-it beats all
Others hollow. Walt Mason.

Political Effect of the New Tariff.
The Democrats have held togeth-
er Unexpectedly well, and the party
has been left in a strong fighting
position by the passage of a general
tariff revision bill that especially
considers the consumer. within the
first seven months of the term of a
new administration. Business will
have a chance to become adjusted
to the new schedules before the
election of another Congress, which
will not occur for thirteen months.
The Administration exhibits broad
qualities, a high livel of intelligence
and public spirit, and a genuine
ness in its positions and dealings
the country recognizes with in
creasing confidence and gratitude
in view of what had gone before.
Since tariff-making has always
been closely related to political
change, the question naturally
arises whether or not this radical
new measure, which affects so
many industries in their comforta-
Bile sense of guaranteed security,
will cause a reaction sharp enough
to give the next Congress to the Re-
pubhcans. Logic and experience
might furnish an answer in the
affirmative But actual political
conditions all seem TO point the
other way In 1908, the Republi-
can party made promises to the
country, was taken at its word,
broke its pledges most shamelessly
and was repudiated in the elections
of 1910 and 1912. The Democratic
party, now coming into power has
surprised both its friends and its
enemies by the firmneSs with which
it has faced Its pledges and kept
its word From The Progress of
