Democratic Leaders
Praise Wilson's Stand

Democratic leaders in the Senate and
House united today in praise of Presi-
dent Wilson's course in directing tariff
legislation, eliminating today, a bare
seven months after his Inauguration, in
final legislative action on a bill COM
pletely. overthrowing the protective sys-
tenn. Also. the Democrats all thought
that majority legislators ought to be
given a good deal of credit by the
people.
The statements follow:
James of Kentucky-rm delighted be-
yond words at the absolute success of
the tariff legislation. We have proven
that our Republican friends were
wrong, when they said we could not
enact constructive legislation. We have
enacted ii, and the people know, and
will soon have demonstrated to them,
that We enact II for them.
Reed OF MissourESenator James SEN
timents so for me. with thisaddition:
We have enacted a tariff bill with all
dye speed and caution. Don't forget
that-caution-
Pittman of Nevada-To me first the
distinctive feature of the tariff measure
is the putting Of all foodstuffs on the
free list. and. next, the influence which
the President welded to put this bill
through. He never dictated or used
threats, but he did use unanswerable
logic, and tolerance and answering
purpose.
PoInerene of Ohio-It has been a won
derfuliy satisfactory victory for the
Administration. We have enacted
bill of over 1900 items on which there
was wide diversity of opinion. OF
course. some provisions are not salts
factory. but there has been a har-
monious compromise. The Democratic
party deserves congratulations for
thoroughly putting through such con-
structive legislation in such a short
time.

the force of seventeen tons for each

The pressure of water increases

SCIENTISTS TELL OF THE SEA
Some Facts Not Generally Known,
But Of Interest to the Man
Who Admires Nature.

Not only is the sea the reservoir
into which all rivers run. but 1t is the
cistern that finally catches all the
rain that falls. not merely upon It's
own surface, but upon the surface OF
the land and upon the roofs of our
houses. 1t has been calculated that
each year a layer of the entire sea
fourteen feet thick is taken up into
the clouds. This vapor is fresh. and.
IL all the water could be removed In
the same way. none of IL being re-
turned, there would. it is figured, be

1t seemed that her eyelds were held

to lift them, and tried again. Her

kissed her lips, and as she remained
motionless, he kissed her again and
again.
Suddenly she exclaimed blindly:
"Oh, my Cod" Then she threw her
arms about him. as he drew her to his
bosom.
1t was at that moment, as IL Fate
herself had timed the interruption
that Fran entered.
There was violent movement OF
mutual repulsion on the part Of Hamil-

stood very still, the sharpness of her
profile defined. with the keenness OF
eyes and a slight grayness about the
lips that made her look oddly small
and old.
