The Tariff and November.

The republican senators are plead
ing for an early vote on the tariff.
They see the danger of delay. They
want as much time as possible for the
new measure to show" the country
before election day. They are warned
by bits of tariff history.
Thirty-two years ago the Mckinley
tariff revision. after stormy passage
through Congress. particularly through
the Senate, went into operation only
few weeks before election day, with
the result that the vote was taken
while the congressional clamor was
still fresh in memory. The new law
was condemned at the polls largely on
the strength of what its enemies had
said about it on Capitol Hill.
Twenty-eight years ago the German
Wilson tariff revision. after stormy
passage through Congress. and the
narrowest escape from shipwreck in
the Senate, went into operation only
a few months before election day, and
without President Clevelands sigma
ture, with the result that the demo-
cratic party, which was responsible for
the measure, lost the election. The re-
publicans had almost a walkaway, and
two years later won both Congress and
the presidency.
Election day is only six months
away. and what is called the Fordney
bill has just entered the Senate whirl-
pool. How soon, and in what shape,
will it emerge? Or will 1t emerge in
any shape before the voters gather to
determine the complexion of the Sixty
eighth Congress? The republican anX-
iety is we'll justified. The situation is
ticklish.

A Legislative Day. !

The threat Of night sessions on Cap
itol Hill has sometimes fastened d
vote. but night sessions themselves
have not always benefited measures
under discussion.
From noon until II o'clock is a
stretch of eleven hours. Allowing
three hours for dinner, we have eight
hours remaining for conferences, COM
mittee work, correspondence and for
NAL debate A legislative day Of that
length. divided up in that way, is an
exhausting siege; and an exhausted
man does not make a good legislator.
1t was Jerry Simpson. the Kansas
reformer of a few years ago. who
thought Congress loafed on its job.
and who promised in his campaign for
a seat in the House to establish new
order Of things if elected. He would.
he said, 'blow the horn" at o'clock
in the morning, and keep every man
jack at work until in the evening,
allowing an hour for a smack" In
that way the peoples business could
be promptly transacted.
Mr.. Simpson was elected. but failed
to establish the promised new order
of things. He soon discovered the diff
ference between legislator and a
farm hand, and was glad enough him.
self to subscribe to the old order of
things. He willingly waited until noon
to begin work, and was willing enough
to knock off at O'Clock and call it a
day. Simpson the reformer seeking
office and Simpson the reformer in Of
flee proved to be different men.

In connection with the great postal

appeal for the help of every one to
assist in improving the service in va
rious ways. This message reached

A Nation Of Candy Eaters.

One of the remarkable results of
prohibition Is the growth of the
candy business since the enactment Of
the eighteenth amendment. There
was invested in this business in 1914
the sum of S170,s45.o00. There is now
invested $5o0.000. 900. tremendous
Jump in values Perhaps 1t is this de-
mand that keeps candy prices SO high,
in the face of the great drop in sugar.
There Is no nation in the world that
consumes so great a quantity Of
these sweets as do the people of the
United States With a population now
estimated at 115,00o,000. it means that
over four dollars worth of candy is
made annually for every man, woman
and child in the country. The theorists
hold that this growing consumption
is owing to a craving for some sort
of a substitute for alcoholic bever-
ages. This presents problem for the
Psychologist and psychologist to work
out. The fact is. seemingly, that the
water wagon has become a confec-
