DEMOCRATIC CONGRESSMAN WOULD IN.
CREASE ALL RATES TEN PER CENT.

One of the early storm centers of Legislation in
congress will be the proposal of Representative
Garner of Texas TO make horizontal increase Of
10 per cent in the rates Of the Underwood tariff.
He puts forth this plan seriously as a means of
overcoming the deficit in the revenues, and he
announces that he is prepared TO fight for his
proposition. If so. he will doubtless be accom-
modated for Chairman Kitchin of the ways and
means committee has declared his opposition TO
the Garner plan and announces that II will die
speedy death in committee. The Garner idea
however is attracting much attention. Its au-
thor figures that he can thus add about two hun
bred and twenty-five millions of dollars year
TO the revenues-but these are snapshot figures
because no one can forete the effect which a
change in tariff rates may have upon the inn
portations under a special schedule.
The horizontal" method of dealing with tar
if rates, however, is well known in the demo-
cratic party. Thirty years ago, right after the
passage of the tariff act of 1888, Representative
Morrison of Illinois proposed horizontal cut in
the rates provided by that measure and he at
once won for himself the sobriquet of Horizon
tai Bill" Representative Garner is now being
spoken Of as Horizontal John" The method
which supplies the name is simple-but illogical.
In the present instance il is also regarded as
party treason by Chairman Kitchin.
More revenue must be had That is axiom
attic. But it viii be be had if the ruling elements
of the majority party have their way through
more direct taxation. The Garner plan may be
good one TO talk about. 1t will create some dis
sension among the democratic satraps, but as a
betting proposition it is not favorite.

Has it ever occurred to citizens of Carbon
county that the permanent development of this
section depends upon those who are settled here
permanently, and not upon transients nor upon
business interests in a distant city? It's the
'home guard" that must be relied upon to build
up. The citizen who has home and is satisfied
with il is the best asset the community can
possess. Dissatisfied citizens engender dissatis-
faction in others. A man who is down on"
Price will talk about IL and keep on snarling and
backbiting until others get in the same mood.
The reverse is true of satisfied citizens. They
radiate satisfaction, tell others about it, and
make for community satisfaction. The Sun
finds no reason for dissatisfaction. Those who
belong to the breed of knockers" are few, and
in order TO cure themselves of this vicious all
ment should consult any of our well known town
builders and acquire enlightenment.

William Jennings Bryan adds his voice to
those which are advocating the adjustment of
the electoral college. He speaks of the "clumsi-
ness" of the present system and declares that
"some plan should be devised by which the voters
can vote directly for the president" Perhaps
Bryan can devise that plan. 1t WILL of course, be
reached through an amendment TO the constitu-
ton by appropriate legislation in congress after
ward II should involve a federal definition of
the qualification of voters and it should carry a
federal guarantee of the right of all voters duly
qualified, TO vote freely and to have their votes
counted as cast. In such modification of the
electoral system Bryan will have the co-opera-

have party in power that is for protection open
ly and as a matter of principle. We shall not be
economically safe until such a party is in con-

ton of his political opponents. But can he carry
his party that far?

Some time ago Samuel Gompers declared that
the provisions of the Adamson law would go into
effect January 1, 1917, law or no law" Well,
the date has come and gone and what Gompers
said has not turned out to be true. In fact, what
Gompers says very infrequently turns out to be
true and laboring men would be better off if
they would cut loose from him for keeps. By
the way, who is it that is keeping him still just
now?

Well, that's what tht

a traitor. Well. that's what the
Greek people call Venizelcs.
The impression has been spread
broadcast that Venizelos stands in
Cir ece for liberalism and his oppon-
ents for absclutism and militarism.
1t is Just the other way around Ven
i1elos stands for whatever suits his
cwn personal book. His idea OF
government is an absolute dictator
ship-a sort of Mexican government,
take it, When he was premier he
broke every man who dares to dis
agree with him in his own party
He never sought to express the will
OF the people; he imposed his will on
| the people. The Greek pecple will
| not stand that.
That Is one thing l wanted to
say. The other is about the effect
Of the so-called German propaganda
| in Greece. The Entente powers
seem to have adopted the attitude
that everybody who is not willing to
fight on their side must be a pro-
German feeling in Greece than in
the United States, Holland or any OF
the Scandinavian countries. The
whole feeling of the Greek people
towards the Entente Powers today is
one of sorrow and dis-illusionment
They had heard so much of this war
for the defense of little nations that
II has been very great shock to
them to be treated, as they feel very
badly even cruelty, for no reasoi

The Man Who Wins.

The man who wins is the man who goes
Ahead with his work each day;
Who's never struck by his adverse luck,
But makes of his labors play;
From early dawn he will toll right on,
And know that the worlds all right.
And he sings a song as he goes along,
For it sharpens his appetite.
The man who wins is the man who smiles,
And sees that the sky Is blue:
He is always there with great big share
OF smiles and Of sunshine. too:
He never growls. and he never bowls
That the world Is out Of gear
But he meets the shocks and the Jealous
knocks
With a great, broad smile of cheer.
The man who wins Is the willing man.
Who grinds while others play:
The sun shines bright and his hearts all
right.
Though things may not come his way.
He makes a boast that to get the most
OF life you must Just dig in.
And work away ev'ry newborn day.

has got just about all he will ever be
able to get out of the arm that had
been terror to the batters for so
many seasons.
Plank ranks as the greatest of south
paws. In his time, including the season
of 1915, which he spent with the st.
Louis Federals, he participated in 6O3
games of baseball under the big tent,
and out Of this number he had won
318 games up to the close of the 1915
season and lost 1856, which is some rec
ord.
He has been q member of all six of
Connie Mack's championship clubs in
the American League and has shared in
five world series, three of which he
helped to win. He has often said that
he wanted to pitch for 20 years, or at
least until he had reached his forty
fifth year, but it appears now that Old
Pop Time has placed a stymie in his
path which will keep him from realiz-
ing his ambition.
Plank is vivid example of what
clean living will do for ball player.
He has taken wonderful care of him
self all the years he has been in the
game, and he is an admirable model
for the young pitchers coming up to
emulate.

All root vegetables are carefully

Tomatoes are graded and repacked in

This man can prove by his books
that he makes net profit of from 25
to 100 per cent by his method of ham
ding and marketing.
There Is no reason why the men who
grow the fruit and vegetables should
not make equally as big a profit, pro-
vided they possess the faculty for or.
ganizatiOn and the patience and pride
necessary to put up their products in
style that will most readily attract
the eyes Of their customers.
This New York huckster uses GOV.
cred wagons with three decks. Upon
these decks his fruit and vegetables
are neatly arranged, and everything
the wagon contains is covered with
light cloth to keep off the dust and
insects.
He has large list of regular custO-
mers among the residents of the nu-
merous small towns of his vicinity,
who buy all their fruit and vegetables
from him, because they can depend
upon getting them fresh. clean and
sound. OF course this mans trade is
mostly among women, and he leaves
nothing undone which will attract their
attention, and arouse their interest in
the cleanliness and good condition of
his product. His wagons are washed
daily, his horses we'll groomed and the
harness kept clean and shiny. sas :;: r.

and presents one to each of his custo.

Little attentions such as these al
why's make a friend of the customer,
and this man has found that nothing
counts more in his business than this
kind of attention added to politeness,
and an honest desire to please the peo-
pie with whom he does business.
