THE FRONT WHEEL 8

A man who has driven an automo-
bile for ten years and never had an
accident says he makes it a rule to
keep his eyes on the front wheels of
the other fellows car, rather than
On the driver himself. Thus he gets
4 pretty good notion of the way the
other car is going. It's the same prin-
ciple used by expert fencers and box
ers-watching an opponents eyes
rather than his hand.
It's useful hint; and it serves. too
to remind us afresh that a great man
once said it isn't where a man is
that counts, but where he is going
And it isn'a bad idea to look once in
a while at the front wheels of ones
own car, in business, and in mental
and moral development, and see in
what direction they are headed.

pork"

America efficient and Congress
sional pork" bills are direct contra
dictions, hence Mr.. Hughes, whose
great ambition is to help establish
the former, is unqualifiedly against
the latter.
The pork" bill, just as Mr.. Hughes
says, is "a matter of log-rolling. 1t
is matter which, as l say, brings
the blush of shame to the cheek of
every American who understands the
actual practice. 1t ought to be
stopped" And it is good to hear him
continue: "If 1 am elected President,
to the extent of my ability l propose
to stop it."
Here is something that from the
constructive" point of view ought to
satisfy even Mr.. Hughes opponents,
though of course it won't, but what a
topic it is, and how much Mr.. Hughes
might easily have to say about it!
Every American whose creed does
not call the extravaganza and waste
will heartily second the wish Mr..
Hughes expressed when he said: "I'd
like to have the authority to investi-
gate this Administration for about
six months"
1t is safe to say that his successful
work as an insurance prober would
sink into insignifcance compared
with the record he would make on
such a job, but though he may get
little time for such work after March
4th next, these words spoken in Far
go, N. D., tell the American people
what to expect from an administra-
tion whose slogan is America eff
cient:"
81 have no apologies for Republf-
can extravangances", says Hughes.
Il am just as quick to condemn that
which is wrong in my own party as
am anywhere else. I stand for bu-
sinesslike administration of the Unit
ed States; not for politics, not to re-
ward friends, not to build up a per-
sonal machine, noat to put myself in
any particular position of favor, but
to honestly administer the affairs of
the United States"
Americans are justified in believing
that Charles Evans Hughes will not
be stronger in words than in Deeds"
and that with him as President,
pork" will be much less conspicu-
Gus than it has been for the three
years just passed.-Jersey City Jour-
nal.

THE TARIFF AS AN ISSUE

Mr.. Fairbanks is quite right in
pointing out that the tariff is one of
the signal issues of the campaign. The
great industrial and farming sections
of the country that have ever been
for protection to American industry
know very we'll that the problem is
not a question of specific schedules,
about which many may honestly diff
fer, but of vital principles that are
back of the sound Republican doc
trine. The Underwood bill and Pres
ident Wilson's continued advocacy of
it save but repeated the history of
the Mills law and President Cleve-
lands concern for economic theories
forced on him that were unqualifiedly
repudlated, however, as soon as the
country realized what was under way.
This time the war in Europe has
concealed and hidden the effect of
the Underwood law, and the Demo-
Gratis hope to profit by this by assert
ing that it would not have proved
harmful in continued operation and
by pointing out how they have now
backed down and passed protective
legislation for special purposes and,
hence, are to be trusted to look out
for American industries after the war
as we'll as to raise adequate revenues
without resorting to doubtful expedi-
ents.
But the glorifcation of the Under
wood measure and the eleventh-hour
conversion to protection are incon-
sistencies that cannot be reconciled
If the people want to be secure in
their enterprises after the war they
will follow the cue of thinkers like
Mr.. Fairbanks and make sure that
there will be no compromise with the
principle that keeps American mills
open, develops our industrial resour-
ces and meets the competition of Eur
ope in the most effective manner. AS
a matter of fact, the Democratic party
is only converted to protection" for
campaign purposes. Too many of the
leaders are still frankly hostile to pro-
lection and adequate revenues
through customs duties for the tariff
issue to be overlooked, even if the
war has given certain industries an
artificial prosperity and protected
others from all foreign importations.
The tariff is campaign issue, and a
very far-reaching one.

RIDICULE

A man of thirty-five whose home
was in Duck Hill, Mass, went to San
Francisco and committed suicide bp
taking poison. His reason was that
he had been so ridiculed from child
hood by friends and neighbors for an
impediment in his speech that life
was no longer worth living. He went
so far away for the act because he
did not want his acquaintances to
have the satisfaction of knowing they
had made him desperate.
The activity of news agencies is
such that it is more than probable
that his Duck Hill friends have by
now been apprised of his tragic
death. 1t is also more than probable
that instead of giving them satisfac-
ton, the occurrence will be the cause
of their lasting remorse.
OF course, man should be strong
enough of soul to discount rid:cule
and live above it. But as a matter
of fact, many people are not strong
enough. Nearly all of us, in one way
or another, have our weaknesses.
And it is not exactly the part of kind
ness or justice for our acquafntances
to make the biggest pull of our lives
come at the weak part of the chain.
The man or woman who has some
physical defects has already enough
burden to carry, and is usually ex-
tremely sensitive about his difference
from his fellows. To add to that bur-
den by ridicule is objectionable.
Ridicule is almost always thought
less, but none the more excusable for
that reason. Men and women have
no business to be thoughtless of the
comfort of others.
Rfdlcule is almost always stupid.
And it has seldom been known to do
any good which could not have been
accomplished in some better way. 1t
has certain rare uses at the hands of
the word-expert But to ridicule
man for a defect which was beyond
his power to remedy!
Who killed this man, anyhow
himself or his ne- ghbors?

BY-PRODUCTS

The fortunes of the future are to
be made out of the by-products. The
things that used to be thrown away,
in other words, are going to be the
things out of which men make profit
in the future. And the whole human
race will, of course, be benefited as
these fortunes are made.
A few years ago cotton seed were
considered a useless product. The
cotton growers hauled them out upon
the land, after the cotton had been
ginned, and considered the seed of
little value save as fertilizer, and not
so very valuable for that.
Today, the cotton seed from an acre
of cotton brings more money than the
cotton itself. In fact, one might now
Speak of the fibre as by-product
rather than the seed.
Then there was gasoline. A billion
gallons of it will be burned this year.
Only few years ago it was in such
small demand that 1T was considered
a by-product. Billions of gallons of it
have been wasted in this country.
Kerosene was the main product of
petroleum, and little else was of
enough value to be considered.
The by-products of petroleum are
now so numerous it would require
column of space to enumerate them.
The latest by-product to be figured
upon is that of tobacco stems. Until
this time they have been considered
worthless. Millions of tons of them
have been hauled to the dump. But
recent experiments have developed
the fact that they are very valuable,
and at least one concern is preparing
to make a product of them that will
bring in a great deal of wealth.
This product, a chemical produced
from the smoke of burning stems, is
in demand, and market already es-
tablished. The stems will be burned
N furnaces, thus furnishing valuable
fuel, and the smoke is condensed and
the chemical thus obtained.
Since the war began the world is
learning a whole lot. 1t is learning
that there has been too much waste
in the past, and that Germany's great
cheney has been made possible be-
cause she, of all nations, learned to
take care of the waste, and to turn
what other people considered waste
| into useful products.

WILSON-NUGENTISM

Secretary of State Martins action
in declaring that he will not be can
didate for the Democratic nomination
for Governor of this State shows him
to be a, clever interpreter of public
sentiment for he has evidently come
to the conclusion that this is Re-
publican year in, New Jersey, and is
too wise to enter into a political bat
tie which would mean nothing to him
even though he should be victorious.
His action leaves the field clear for
Otto Wittpenn, who can now dismiss
the primary election from his mind
and put his full energy into trying to
bolster up his campaign for election.
That he has entered upon a losing
fight must gradually be dawning on
him, for many of the Wilson follow
ers in the State have shown their dis
gust over the Wilson-Nugent coalition
that has been effected by the Presi-
dent in the hope of getting together
all the elements of the New jersey
Democracy. There are thousands of
Democrats in the State who remem-
ber the fight between the Wilson and
Nugent elements, and the bitterness
which resulted from it, and they can
not reconcile themselves to swallow
ing the Essex county man who was so
thoroughly denounced by the Presi-
dent only short while ago. They
cannot believe that this "black sheep
of Democracy, as Wilson called him.
has suddenly become pure and white

EDGE REAL LIVE WIRE

If the Republican voters desire a
real live-wire candidate for Governor
they should vote at the primaries for
Senator Edge. His legislative record
shows that he is statesman who be-
lieves in action and is always alert to
bring into being measures that will
benefit the State. Some of the Sena-
tors opponents have circulated ru-
NOR that he favors wide-open Sun
day, rumor which is utterly without
foundation, which was clearly show
when he joined in the fight to defeat
Mayor Riddle, of Atlantic City, who
is the foremost advocate in favor of
an European Sunday at the seaside
resort. 1t was said that Senator Edge
was playing with edged tools when
he entered the campaign to defeat
Riddle, but this did not daunt him
and through his efforts the man who
would have made the name of Allan
tic City a by-word and reproach was
efeated-Burlingto Enterprise.

READ AND RUN

Mr.. Wilson's outline of what the
Democratic party has accomplished
will astonish Democrats as much as
any others. 1t is a fine composition.
Their wisest policy is to distribute
this letter far and near and then run
before anybody begins to ask ques-
tions. 1t would be amusing, if it
were not seriously discouraging, to
find anybody defending the amazing
failures of the Administration and ev-
en- boasting of them.
