The County Hospital officials may
be called upon to explain why they
refused John Lyons, an old man; adj
mission on Christmas eve, an act
that later caused his death in de-
serted barn.
Lyons, who was fifty-four years of
age, and an old actor, came into the
saloon of William Stack, Washtenaw
avenue and Lexington street We'd
nesday His face was drawn. He
looked very i'll.
Stack commented on his appear
ance. The old man explained that he
had been i'll for several days. Stack
advised hi INTO go to the County Hos
pital. The old man agreed.
The aged actor began to reel.
Stack rushed to the telephone and
called the West 18th street station.
When their ambulance arrived, the
police surgeon gave as an expert
opinion that the man was drunk.
Stack and the others in the saloon
were dazed by this announcement of
the doctor and argued against it. The
doctor was Obdurate.
Nav, he's drunk" he said, well
take him to the station or to the
Bridewell. Which do you want?"
But Stack would not stand for this
treatment of Lyons and the ambu-
lance was sent away. Then Stack
called up Aid Thomas ]. Ahern of
the 18th Ward. The alderman, who
knew Lyons and knew he wasn't
drinking man, interested himself in
the case.
Ahern, believing that Commission
er BARLEY Burg would have more in
fuence at the County Hospital, call
ed him up. Right there Ahern made
one mistake.

him a question.

No truth whatever Vienna could never

The house majority leaders are
right in urging that only the tariff be
acted upon at the session to be called
for next month. Mr.. Wilson is well
advised in approving their policy. One
thing at q time is good rule. The
most important thing first is a still
better rule.
The Wilson administration Is tar
iff-revision administration. The Dem.
ocratic party in congress is a tariff
revision party. Until the tariff is re-
vised and justice done to the consumes
neither will have time for other legis-
lative business.
For the Democrats to allow them
selves to be diverted from their main
task and to devote time and energy to
other matters would be a mistake.
The correction of the abuses Of the
Payne-Aldrich schedules and the ad'
justment of revenues to the needs OF
the government are questions that
will require all their attention for
many weeks. Other legislation can
well wait until next winter.

Must Be Aggressive.

Like Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson has
no bitterness for the foes against
whom he has led a victorious people.
He admits the good that has come
through generations of development;
but he is more concerned with the
evil which has come with the good,
the evil which he feels the people
have commanded him to eradicate.
The victory which has placed him in
the White House is not the culmina-
ton, but merely the beginning of the
struggle. He would square every
process of national life with the ideals
set up by the American people at the
beginning, and which they still carry
at their hearts. To do this he must
labor without ceasing. He must still
be the aggressive leader Of the army
of regeneration. He needs the aid of
all whom he can enlist in this army

ward looking men,"

MATTER OF JUSTICE
HUMAN SIDE OF TARIFF ISSUE TO
BE CONSIDERED.
Secretary RedHeId Has Put the Mat
ter Plainly, and the Democratic
Party is In Position to Rec
tify Errors.

William G. Redfield, the new secre-
.tary Of commerce, recently spoke on
the human side of the tariff issue. He
said, in part:
The result Of the high tariff has
been most serious on its moral side,
because 1t has led to the belief that
business success is the sole end of
human endeavor, and because 1t has
built up a commercial aristocracy.
The fact that certain of our manufac-
turers receive favors through the
workings OF the tariff creates class
distinctions. The tariff has
tended to destroy our confidence in
our own powers. The manu-
facturers who have thus had the man.
tie of protection thrown over them
would be other than human II their
moral nature did not suffer from this
guardianship"
Secretary Redfeld expresses not
only his own thought, but that OF
President Wilson, and great major
ity Of the American people. The tar
i'll ia moral issue. 1t must be set
tied, not on basis of profits for
tEusts. but of justice for human be-
ings. 1t is not matter of involved
calculations, but Of plain right and
wrong.
The Aldrich tariff has robbed con-
sumers and made moral paupers of
rich manufacturers. 1t has taxed
warm clothing from the backs of the
poor, and it has sent favored rich
sniveling to congress to beg for more
unjust privileges If the Democratic
majority in house and senate has the
courage to do right, the American
people will see that such courage is
rewarded.
The Liberal democrat. [volume] (Liberal, Kan.) 1911-1924, 1913-04-18
Country Nseds a Best.

1t seems clear that the Democratic
party will do what is best and most
prudent for the country and itself If II
will get through its self-imposed task
of tariff revision as quickly as posi-
BILE, adjourn congress, and give the
American people rest. For eight OF
ten years political agitation affecting
the foundations Of industry and com
MERGE has been incessant, and we all
need a rest, a chance to get oul
breath and take stock of our situa
ton, that we may find out whittier we
are going and what our state is likely
to be when we get there.

binary earthenware, which was al
ready relatively low, being subject
to an average duty Of 24.67 per cent,
has now been cut to 10 per cent.
while window glass has been given an
average reduction on all glasses of
from 1888 per cent. to 1881 per cent,
Plate glass, which may be considered
luxury, still retains duty Of nearly
40 per cent, the average being 3S.45
per cent, in place Of the duty Of 1895
per cent. In the law.
Pig Iron and Forglngs Hit.
"Pig iron and slabs, which were
1886 per cent. and 17.79 per cent,
have been cut to per cent. in each
case; beams, from 1920 per cent. to IL
per cent, and forgings from 80 per
cent. to 15 per cent. On the other
hand, bicycles, a much more highly
manufactured product, are dutiable at
% per cent as against As per cent,
and razors at 35 per cent. as against
7768 per cent.
THE idea of the large extension Of
the free list for the manufactured
products has been the fundamental
conception, while the effort has been
made to improve the status of the
manufactured lumber. Thus, sawed
boards, other than cabinet wood, have
been carried to the free list, while
sawed cabinet woods, which were
1875 per cent. in 1912, are now 10 per
cent; casks, barrels, ETC., which were
80 per cent, are now 14.77 per cent,
and house furniture, which was 80 per
cent, is now Is per cent.
Tobacco and spirits have been
found to be good producers Of revenue
and have, therefore, been left at the
same rates as in the present law

"In the effort to relieve the consum-
er and to mitigate the high and rising

stance, the duty on horses has been
reduced from 25 per cent. to 10 per
