A Constructive Charity.

There is just one more day for
Washington to grasp all Of the four.
teen opportunities. At the present
reckoning the fund totals 34,74s, leav-
ing $3.50 to be subscribed. The full
fund should be in hand Christmas
morning.
Heretofore there has been a resu-
lar filing Of this Stocking" It has
never been left empty or partially
filed. Washington. playing Santa
Claus to these fourteen families, has
always made good. 1t will make good
now.
The only question is who will do
it, and when. Those who give in the
next twenty-four hours will have great
satisfaction. They will know that they
have helped in one of the most prac.
teal worthy charities this city ever
undertakes.
In a population of nearly 450, 900 1t
should not be difficult to raise a sum
of about $4,000 for the purpose Of
keeping fourteen families intact and
supplied with the necessities of life
for year.
The best feature of this fourteen
opportunities fund is that in most
Of the cases the people who are Sc
lected for this help are thereby aided
to. reach the plane of self-sustenance.
Usually this assistance is needed just
for the year. Take, for instance, in
the present list. the case of the blind
man who is learning trade by which
he can support his family later.
Twelve months OF assistance will put
him on a plane of self-support. Again,
the case Of a widow with little chill
dren. A year Of aid may enable her
to get on substantial footing where
with her children's help she can main.
tain the family. These are but type
cases to illustrate the fact that giving
to this fund is constructive charity
the best Of all.

,erson leaving the curb to reach a car

person leaving the curb to reach q car
loading platform.
Another difficulty is that a fixed
crossing rule with penalty for viola
ton in a sense implies assurance of
security at the point designated by
the law. Motorists are now seriously
handicapped in trying to make cross
ings at such places if they are careful,
and it would be utterly difficult il they
were to be enjoined from crossing
when there is any chance whatever Of
hitting pedestrian.
The only safe rule that is enforc-
ible and equitable is to require all
to be careful, to enjoin upon all street
users. afoot or awheel, the compul.
sion Of self-protection and considera-
ton. Good habits by both pedestrians
and motormen will lessen accidents.

A Tariff Up-to-Date.

From a report of yesterdays tariff
debate in the House:
Mr. Fordney said. in the course of
the debate. however. that he hoped to
see Congress at the extra session sub
stitute for this bill relief measure
which would remain in effect until
scientific tariff schedule could be
worked out. 4 expect he continued.
to see Congress re-enact either the
Dingley or the Payne -Aldrich sched-
ules.'"
We should do Chairman Eordney
an injustice to take him literally.
Neither the Dingley schedules nor the
Payne-Aldrich schedules would answer
now. The present situation and neces-
stiles are very different from those
that existed in 1897. when the Dingley
law was enacted, and quite as differ
.nt from those that existed in 1909,
when the Payne-Aldrich law was en-
acted.
The Dingley law was so great sue
nally-that in four years President
Mckinley was asking for its revision.
And had it been revised when he pro-
posed revision-in 1901, just before his
death-the republican difficulty Of
1909. growing out Of the Payne-Aldrich
revision would not have occurred. That
revision. it will be remembered, split
the republican party in two, led di-
rectly to the democratic triumph of
1910, and indirectly to the democratic
triumph of 1912.
What we shall probably receive from
the Sixty-seventh Congress Is, not the
re-enactment of the Dingley law,
or the Payne-Aldrich law. neither
Of which would answer the pres
ent demand. but law drawn on
protection lines in conformity with the
Changes at home here and abroad
which the world war has wrought.

A Deliberatiye Body.

The Senate is living up to it's record
and reputation. 1t is the reviewing
body Of Congress; and. as Mr.. Greeley
might say, the way to review is to
review.
1t begins the session with a show
of deliberation. 1t is not hurrying
with the immigration question. and
there are intimations that it will not
hurry with the emergency tariff ques-
ton. The House hurried with both.
The Senate enjoys the country's
confidence. Jokes about its somno-
lence and sneers about its great
wealth have disappeared. 1t has
shown itself to he anything but a
sleepy body, and whatever wealth its
members possess is never paraded
1t works like a hired man, and ex.
hibits no side"
A good deal of work is now in hand,
and more is coming. The next Con.
gress will have its hands full. The
tariff question alone will keep it busy
for months.
Seven years ago the Senate con-
sumed five months in its committee
work and general debate on a House
the Underwood-tariff measure. The
time was well employed, for the meas
ure needed reviewing: and the Senate
performed its task with thoroughness.
So we may probably expect some
pretty thorough reviewing next year
revision of the tariff which the next
House will send over. That will be
the most comprehensive measure Of
the kind ever drafted, and the bust
ness world will want it to take the
best shape possible.

Patronage and Legislation.

In 1913. when Mr.. Wilson took the
helm, the Offices were filed with re.
publicans. The democrats, after six
teen years spent in the wilderness,
were very hungry and very thirsty"
and clamorous for sustenance. For a
short time there was great pressure
for place.
But Mr.. Wilson gave attention to
other things. A very large legislative
order was in hand, and he insisted
that it must be ffiled. He called Con.
gross. and. together. they went to
work. Nor did they relax their en-.
ersies until several highly important
measures were written on the books.
In this way Mr.. Wilson escaped
much Of the Importantly about patron.
age which usually plaques a new oc.
cupant of the White House. And,
upon the whole. he has probably had
as easy a time on that score an he
could have desired.
When Mr.. Harding takes the helm
~ March he will ind the Offices filled
with democrats. Mr.. Wilson has
taken his time and been but little
worried. but he has rewarded the
faithful. The republicans, after eight
years in the wilderness. are keen for
the snug quarters again. and are ar.
ranging to press their claims.
But Mr.. Harding, like Mr.. Wilson,
viii give attention first to legislation.
He will call the new Congress In extra
session; and the card Of the body will
be crowded. Business enough viii be
waiting to warrant long session. and
the country is expecting one.
WIN this. as in the case Of Mr.. vii.
son. ease the pressure for pie? and win
Mr.. Harding have upon the whole "a
comfortable time over patronage as
Mr.. Wilson has had?

No Crossing 1ule,

The Commissioners have, proha bly,

regulation against crossing save at the

pedestrians of the streets save at Ger.
