The violent Kick of the Republican minority
OF the ways and means committee against the
Democratic program of tariff reform en-
bodied in the Underwood bill but freshly evil
dences the Bourbon incapacity to learn so strong
Iy characteristic of the once backs and reaction
aries of the once C. 0, 7. The claim that the
revision proposed is not in response to any popu-
lar mandate, clearly and definitely delivered,
rests solely upon the allegation that Lewiston
in the ranks of the opponents of the Democracy
was Wilson and that, therefore, the results Of
the balotng last November constitute only an
apparent. not a real, authorization OF revision
downward, This statement altogether ignores
certain facts which could escape the attention
only of the blindness that will not see. For
several years prior to the 1912 elections senti-
ment throughout the country was Enthusiastically
against the policy Of inordinate protection as
practiced by the Republican party. The Repub-
liCans continued in power in 1908 on a
platform pledging a revision of the tariff which
should consult the interests OF the masses of
American consumers. Mr. Taft himself, during
the campaign and Immediately following his
election, predicting the fate which would ineVi-
tabiy befall the party should II fail to make
good that pledge The failure came in the
enactment of the Payne-Aldrch BILL which.
instead Of consulting. still further sacrificed the
interests of the masses of American consumers
to the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of mere handful OF
privileged producers, and the fate predicted
was swift to follow. In the elections of 1871 @,
in which tariff revision was the chief Ii not sole
issue the Republicans were swept out of power
IN the house and all but lost control of the
senate. while Democratic governors were elected
in several States heretofore regarded Republi-
can strongholds The balloting on last Noyem-
Der, which gave the country Democratic pres
ident and Democratic senate, while greatly in
Creasing the Democratic majority in the house
only enlarged and ratified the preceding YER
dict.
In fact and in short no mandate could be
palmer or more specific than that issued by
the people in regard to downward revision Of
the tariff and, happily for the country and the
party the Democrats are preparing to make II
effective with the utmost possible promptness.-

COMMENT
Reaction Against Suffrage.
Richmond, Va.

The revelation that the majority in Michigan
against woman suffrage at the recent election
was over 100000 is the hardest blow that the
suffrage cause has received in this coun-
try.
The advocates OF votes for women" appear
to have believed that the small majority given
was 'fiuke' the part of the voters and
that a second test would bring them an easy
victory.
But II appears that the country voters who
did not make their opposition to woman suf-
frage felt last fall out in great force at
the March election and overwhelmed the suf-
frage advocates. The suffragists attempted to
bolster up their by claiming that the
saloonkeepers apd brewers accomplished their
previous defeat. but the March returns show that
the dry counties of which there more
than twenty, not their side. Thus the
failure to identify woman suffrage with tenn
perance" in Michigan is complete. The people
Of the country towns simply got walked up
and showed their real sentiment-Hartford

The Worm Turns.

Even that most patient benevolent of all
worms, the country doctor has turned in Scott
county bond issue for good roads is before
the people there awaiting the result of an cleo
ton. Nine doctors of Esti1lville and johnson
sign in published card in which they say they
will be compelled to charge double the present
rates certainly a large increase If the roads
not bettered. They point out that the roads
as they make travel over them slow and
dangerous, especially at night, imperillnR the
lives and limbs of men and horses. Therefore.

save his share of the tax may find himself

Patriotic idealists have longed for the return
of the day when the office would seek the man,
and lol that day has come at last We learn

that one member of the present congress did not

Der is Congressman r. q. Bremner of New
Jersey. The country has his own word for it,
as each member writes his own record into this
compendium of official truth. Thus he says:
Never for office until, against his will,
he was practically Unanimously nominated for
the sixty-third congress"
1T is gratifying to know, not only that there
is particle OF our pristine glory left in the
nation, but that when 1t is appealed to 1t re-
spends to the call 1t might be interesting TO
follow the of this lone member sought
by the office, to how his record compares
with the others who gained the prize after dill
