CURRENT COMMENT
THE RED APPLE.

THE RED APPLE.
The apple red,
Is apple fine,
From overhead,
Becoming mine,
This luscious fruit,
With taste like gold,
Must palate suit
And joy unfold,
Its fragrant juice,
Goes down the throat,
To taste produce,
To JOY denote,
This crimson globe,
This mystery fine,
With scarlet robe
And life divine,
Must ever be
A pleasure rare,
A JOY to me,
Beyond compare,
To pluck and eat,
To reyel now,
Makes life complete,
Smooths out the brow,
Drives care away,
Brings haDDy thought,
Makes work all play,
Content is wrought,
Away with strife
And on with peace,
Enjoy this life
And cares release,
With apple fed,
With apple right
With apple red
With apple bright,
Apple
From
Rome
Beauty
Treel
,ple
Red
Ever
Shall
Be,
Luscious,
Glorious,
Splendid,
Ravishing,
Radiant,
Apple red for me!

INTEREST IN THE SESSION.
For the First Time In Many Years
Democrats Control.


Democrats Control.
Elements in the extra session of con-
gress are unusual. President Wilson
has called the great body together at
time when his party has absolute con-
troll of every branch Of the govern
ment relating to legislation.
This has not been the case before In
twenty years. During that period OF
long ago when the Democrats were in
power President Cleveland called an
extra session. but the conditions were
vastly different from now.
The extra session under President
Wilson is remarkable because the law
makers to a large extent are men OF
comparatively recent rise to proml-
nence. Because of the fact that the
Democratic party is providing change
from Republican rule for the first time
in sixteen years great interest is CEN
tered upon tha doings Of congress.
Virtually a new generation of legis-
lators has sprung up. With but very
few exceptions there are no men who
figured in congressional dofngs OF
twenty years ago who are sharing the
responsibilities Of the body now.
Of only one thing has the public been
absolutely certain, and that is that the
tariff would be first and foremost
among the subjects for work by the
legislators, and that revision downward
would be the purpose. The legislators
themselves have not known Just how
the revision is to be managed and 1t
has been we'll understood that they
would not all be pleased over all
the details Of the ultimate changes.
The subject has been thrashed over so
often and earnestly that its intricacles
have become feared.
The ways and means committee.
which has had the task of drafting the
tentative form of the new tariff meas
ure, has been unable to announce COM
pletion of its work in advance Of the
extra session, but the probability is
that the measure will be taken up
Schedule by Schedule.
The public has been led to expect
that after the tariff is disposed of con-
gress will consider currency, the in
come tax, Philippine independence and
the Panama tolls questions.
Much publicity has been given to the
proposed national income tax. The tax
will probably apply only to incomes Of
over $1,000 annually Certain members
Of congress hold that this sort of levy
would be confined to but a compare
lively small proportion of the public
and that the revenue would not be suf-
fcient. They argue that an inheritance
tax should be added to insure the need
ed revenue.

dealing with the tariff the method by
which this may be done will be a mat

some respects and at some points seem
heroic, but remedies may be heroic
and yet be remedies. 1t is our busi-

our motive is above just challenge
and only an occasional error of judg-
ment is chargeable against US we shall
be fortunate.

ed to adjust themselves. 1t is clear
to the whole country that the tariff
duties must be altered They must be
changed to meet the radical alteration
in the conditions of our economic lie
which the country has witnessed With
in the last generation While the
whole face and method of our irduS-
trial and commercial life were being
changed beyond recognition the tariff
schedules have remained what they
were before the change began or have
moved in the direction they were Civ
en- when no large circumstance Of our
industrial development was what it IS
today. Our task is to square them
with the actual facts. The sooner that
is done the sooner we shall escape
from suffering from the facts and the
sooner our men Of business will be
free to thrive by the law Of nature

of by the law Of legislation and arti-
fetal arrangement.
How Tariff Has Grown.
We have seen tariff legislation wan
der very far afield in our day-Eery far
indeed from the field in which our
prosperity might have had normal
growth and stimulation No one who
looks the facts squarely in the face or
knows anything that lies beneath the
surface of action can fail to perceive
the principles upon which recent tariff
legislation has been based We long
ago passed beyond the modest notion
Of protecting the industries of the
country and moved boldl! forward to
the idea that they were entitled to the
direct patronage Of the government.
For a long time-a time so long that
the men now active in public policy
hardly remember the conditions that
preceeded tive have sought in our
tariff schedules to give each group OF
manufacturers or producers what they
themselves thought that they needed
in order to maintain practically eX-

BANKERS OF THIS COUNTRY
AGAINST PROPOSED MEASURE.

Members of the American Bankers
association. representing forty-seven
states and fifteen billion dollars of
capital. met last Friday to consider
the Owens-Glass currency bill.
Many points of the proposed meas
ure were asserted as unsatisfactory.
President Hepburn of the Chase Ma
tional bank of New York especially
objected to the proposed federal re
serve board which intended to con-
troll government banks on the ground
that four of the seven members We're
appointed by the president and senate
The other three are secretaries of the
treasury. agriculture and comptroller
of the CURRENCY, are also indirectly
presidential appointees. The body
therefore. is completely under the
presidents domination. and 1t is feared
would become a dangerous political
machine.
The bankers also prefer single
central bank instead of the twelve
branches. Instead of the banks fur
nishing the money for the federal re
serve institutions 1t is thought the
whole people ought to be furnished
money through the United tates treas
ury.
