'."here's a place for everything, but the trouble is, we can't always find the place when we want it Many a wedding at which four or five ministers have officiated has been undone by one miserable little di vorce lawyer. CAUGHT IN PASSING Love grows cold v hen it's all on one side. A man and his wife are one; some times one too many. It takes two to make a bargain, but only one to break it. Experience is a good teacher, but often a slow paymaster. Even good luck is apt to be con taminated by bad habits. The man who measures success by Inches doesn't get very far. It always seems much easier to for get our friends than our enemies. One-half the world, being short, doesn't know how the other half gets along.

And what I am, my mother made me.-John Quincy Adams. All that 1 am.or hope to be I owe to my angel mother.-Abraham Lin coln. Let France have good mothers and she will have good sons.-Napoleon Bonaparte. The future destiny of the child is always the work of the mother.-Na poleon Bonaparte. Men are what their mothers made them. You may as well ask a loom which weaves hackaback why lt does not make cashmere as expect poetry from this engineer or a chemical dis covery from that jobber.-Emerson. My mother's influence In molding my character was conspicuous. She forced me to learn daily long chapters of the Bible by heart. To that discip line and patient, accurate resolve I owe not only much of my general power of taking pains, but the best part of my taste for literature.-John Ruskin.

TARIFF COIS FIRST Most Important Matter Now Be fore the Country. With Real Chance to End the Long Sway of Iniquitous Lobbyists, Attention of Voters Must Con centrate on Measure. Don't get so interested in the Mex ican cri?is that you forget the tariff bill now pending JX the United States senate- That would be bad politics and worse sense. The tariff now in force-the Aldrich law-ls the perfect fruit of half a century of vicious lobbying. It costs American consumers not less than $2,000,000,000-two thousand million dollars-per year. Of this sum, about one-seventh goes Into the aational treasury; the rest goes to traits. The present tariff has bred labor crushers like the steel trust, short weight thieves like the sugar trust, and a whole brood of bloated mag nates Vrho claim the right to tax the American people for the benefit of a clique of "protected" manufacturers. It has created and still maintains the most Iniquitous lobby that ever work ed to thwart the will of a free people. The Underwood bill is ;the first hopeful attempt since the Civil war to revise the tariff in the interests of the -whole people. It is the first promising effort to end graft which has grown up through two careless generations. It will pass if the Amer ican people keep their eye on it, and demand that their verdict rendered at the elections ot 1912 be carried into effect. If the people turn aside to chase rainbows or firecrackers, the bill is likely to be talked *o death by leather-lunged champions of privilege, or to be filled with jokers that lessen or destroy its usefulness. It is important' to end the regime of anarchy south of the Rio Grande, but it is yet more important to have done with "invisible government" and licensed robbery at home. Keep your eye on the tariff bill. . Without Pampering. The Star quoted yesterday from a Texas fhecpowner who said that if congress was going to put wool and mutton on the free list the sheep men were going- to have to change their way of raising sheep. That is, the tariff would enforce efficiency. The same principle has emerged in connection with the California citrus fruit growers. When they found they couldn't swerve the determination of congress to cut the duties, one of the growers spoke up nt a conference at Washington and said: "I guess there's nothing fer us to do except to make economies in production and distri bution." There are a lot of pampered indus I tries in the United States that have : assumed they couldn't live without the ! tariff. They are going to find that \ they can get on all right if they will ! conduct their business efficiently. ; Kansas City Star. Telling Their Dreams. Attacks in the senate on the Under I wood tariff bill prove that the stand j patter of today, like the Rourbon of j old. forgets nothing and learns noth : lng. Senators like Smoot can not forget that there was a time when the "in terests" controlled every department of government at Washington: and they 'can not learn that that day is over. They maunder on. reciting the time dishonored patter of tariff fakers for two generations, pleading for a board of "experts." bewailing the as sault on our "infant industries," fully persuaded thai if they yammer long enough the nation will reverse its twice repeated demand for tariff re vision and return the old guard to power. If the standpatters did not insist on telling their dreams on the nation's time, one might almost feel sorry for them. New ?rd Cleaner Era Dawning. The New England textile barons have extorted enormous fortunes from the working people of the United Statr-s by tariff privileges. When the Whitman Mters to congressmen are made public, disclosures outrivaling the Archbold correspondence may be expected. The Mulhall confessions and the Whitman revelations foreshadow the downfall of secret and Improper lob bying, and the end of government by "Big Business." The currency bill admittedly ls still only "a basis of legisl?tion." Searching criticism, if non-partisan and competent, will be welcomed. But as to essentials the sooner an agreement is reached the better for industry and commerce, the better for national prosperity and stability. The time has come to endeavor to evolve a satisfactory compromise and waive minor differences. The time has come to take a forward step and think constructively and practically. Name Likely to Go Begging. If the Republican party should adopt the name of Conservative it would abandon to the Progressives a political trade mark nearly sixty years old, and until last year a val uable asset. Yet it is doubtful if Mr. Roosevelt's party would care to I adopt it. They are fond of the name Progressive, and regard it as thor oughly descriptive of their purpose? and methods, and, having denounced the Republican party as they did last year, they might feel a l'*tle shy ?beut picking up the discarded label. ..).? . ?^cv.3/a a r.';<.
