Birthday Surprise Party
On Wednesday evening, Jan. %,
Mrs. Chas. Hartshorn entertained
twenty-five OF the Cascade Orchard
neighbors and friends in honor of Mr..
Hartshorns birthday. The occasion
was a complete surprise to Mr.. Harris
horn. A very pleasant evening was
spent. Those present were: Mr.. and
Mrs. Conrad Harding and family, Mr..
and Mrs. R. w. Nicholas and family,
Mr.. Briskey and family, Mr.. Stoltze
and son Fred, Geo. Lamb and sisters

James Ellis and Oliver Knudson.
Mr.. Raleigh Mccain Of this city
and Miss Johnnie F. Moore were uni
ted in marriage last Sunday evening
at the Congregational parsonage, Rev.
w. v. Davis performing the ceremony.
The marriage is the elimination of a
romance that begun three years ago
when Mr.. Mccain was messenger
in the employ of the Western Tele-
graph Co. at North Yakima, the home
of Miss Moore. Since that time Mr..
Mccain has risen to the position Of
an operator and is now manager of the
Western Union office in this city. In
speaking Of his rapid rise from messen-
ger to manager the Spokesman-Review
in a recent issue states:
Three years ago, when he was II
years old, Raleigh Mccain took
place with the Western Union Com
pany as messenger. Raleigh not only
did the work Of his place in excellent
manner, but he also looked about the
office to find more work to do. The
result was that he soon knew the
business OF the Office, and as reward
was promoted and given charge of the
delivery service. While he worked
the evening shift he began to learn
the knack of sending and receiving
messages on the wire. His industry was
noted and in order to give him an op-
portunity to perfect himself in tele
graphy he was transferred six months
ago to Boise. When he returned to
North Yakima few weeks ago he was
a regular operator, and in short time
was transferred to Leavenworth, where
he was given the management"

Is building sewers, paving streets,

tracks. The same principles apply
whether It is a nation, state or a
municipality. The same quail les Of
efficiency and honesty are observable
in what has been done for South Bend
and what has been done for the ma
tion.

THE NEW TARIFF.

The tariff program carried in the
senate by the safe margin OF seven
votes. Practically the result repre-
sents the democratic strength in the
upper house, as Two democrats voted
no and two republicans gave their sup
port 20 the bill.
II was expected that Sen. Randall
and Sen. Thornton would vote against
the bill. but surprise and enthusiasm
were manifested when Sen. LaFollette
and Sen. Poindexter announced favor
able votes. Pres. Wilson was happy
over the result. He sees the fulfill
ment OF his tariff pledges.
The action Of the senate was
epochal in its significance. il marks
the disappearance of the protective
system which has prevailed alElpst
continuously since the republican
party first came into power in 1851.
The tariff has been reduced before
this. but never before with such full
consent OF the people
The bill est2ba5hes the principle of
law -.g.Z As the policy Of the United
States as against the principle Of high
tariff which the country had come to
real.se had prevailed too long. 1t
stands for the idea that while a high
protective tariff may have been useful
during a certain period in the coun-
try's history the time has gone by.
The United States no longer needs
protection that must be maintained as
a burden on the people.
Though not perfect cd the bill is
likely to be subjected TO few changes
in the joint conference that will fol-
low. The average rate Is four per
cent lower than when the bill left the
house and twenty-eight per cent
lower than the average duties provid-
ed for IN the Aldrich- Payne bill, now
the tariff law Of the land
The opposition is disposed to crit
icize the administration for putting
the bill through in such short order.
There has been and will be a good deal
said about a tariff commission and
slow process of scientific revision, but
Pres. Wilson regarded the tariff as a
pretty thoroughly predigested subject.
In this he was in accord with popular
sentiment. We have been eternally
discussing the tariff. If we don't
know what we wan now we never
will
The tariff is business condition,
not a scientific theory. and with that
view Of il the president and congress
have treated it purely as a matter af-
fecting the business Of the country and
the bread and butter Of the people.
They have taken six months to do It
and there is nothing to indicate they
could have done any better if they
had taken a year.
South Bend news-times., 1913-09-11

Running at terrific speed to make
mp lost time the fast train struck the
defective rail" and thirty-five persons
were injured, three fatally. That in
brief is the history of another failure
TO successfully play human life and
limb against the schedule.
Incidentally this wreck of the Penn
sylvania flyer emphasizes the value of
steel cars as a protection TO passen-
gers. Had the train been made up
OF wooden cars or part wood and part
steel the loss of life would have been
appalling. Six coaches were turned
over in a cornfeld, the two rear
coaches. the diner and a Pullman re-
mained on the track.
A better argument in support of the
demand that all railroads shall be
equipped with steel passenger cars
could not be devised. 1t IS an insist
ent demand that will not be denied.
No safety first policy can have any
standing in public confidence without
cars that can withstand the impact OF
a wreck
That is settled. The public must
have steel cars 10 ride in. The rail-
roads are protesting that the carshops
cannot supply them or that it would
be a hardship 10 compel them 20 take
on this enormous expense, but the
public will be inexorable. It refuses
20 continue TO be slaughtered and
MANNED for the sake OF dividends for
railway stockholders.
And another thing. The practice Of
making up lost time must be stopped
II is a dangerous practice. IL is the
most fruitful cause Of railroad wrecks.
IT is nothing less than criminal reck-
lessness.

DIARY OF FATHER TIME.

Over 5000 years ago the great
Rameses II, king OF Egypt, built two
enormous temples. The larger one he
ordered to be excayated out Of the
solid sandstone rock. The terraces of
the forecourt were embellished with
rows of figures and statues Of kings,
while four gigantic figures Of himself
were hewn out Of the cliff and placed
in pairs on each side of the entrance
to the temple. Each of the figures
were 65 feet high. The ceilings and
walls were adorned with beautifully
colored reliefs of flying vultures.
Modern enterprise has dug this
temple out Of the sand under which
it has been buried for centuries. But
modern enterprise has gone one bet
ter than that by lighting it all up with
electricity.
To the sentimental tourist we'll read
in ancient Egyptian history approach
ing this temple with feelings of awe
and reverence, it must come as
shock to see the statues Of Rameses
decorated with electric bulbs.
South Bend news-times., 1913-09-11

There is nothing in the new tariff
law pertaining 10 the building Of sew
