Surrounded by the leaders of a
united Democracy President Wilson

at the White House. Simultaneously
telegrams were sent by the treasury
department to customs collectors
throughout the country putting Into
actual operaton the first Democratllc
tariff revision since 1 894.
A happy group of legislators, mem
bers of the Cabinet and friends en
circled the President as he smilingly
sat down and with two gold pens
slowly affixed his slfinature. He
presented to Representative Under
wood the pen that had written the
word “Woodrow”, and the one which
had completed the name to Senator
Simmons.
Amid Impressive silence the Presi

ural tones an extemporaneous speech
that brought prolonged applaue
The President declared that the Jour

work is done, will arise all over the
country ‘for what do we wait?’ Why
should we wait to crown ourselves

self-denying that we do not wish to

Covets Honor for All.
“I was quoting to some of my col
leagues in the Senate, those lines
from Shakespeare, which have al
ways appealed to me: ‘If it be a sin
to covet honor, then am I the most
offending soul alive,’ and I am happy
to say that I do not covet It for my
self alone. I covet It with equal ar
dor for the men who are associated
with me and the honor Is going to
come from them. I am their asso
ciate. I can only complete the work
which they do. I can only counse'
when they ask my advice. I can come
In only when the last stages of the
business are reached. And I covet
the honor for them quite as much as
I covet It for myself.

Federal prisoners at Fort Leaven
worth, Kan., have completed the con
struction of the finest penitentiary in
the United States. Five years ago
the government made an appropria
tion of $043,000 for the project. It
is declared the new structore would
have cost the government $3,000,000,
but for the material aaslstanc# of Col.
Thomas H. Slavens, commandant of
the United States Military prison at
the fort.
The completion of the new build
ings will mark a complete change in
the character of the military prison.
Instead of making convicts of army
deserters and petty offenders, Uncle
Sam Is going to try a new plan. There
Is entirely too ranch soldier material
wasted by the old system. Uncle Sam
Is going to conserve this by giving
deserters a chance ts get hack Into
the ranks, through the reformatry,
and clear their resords.
The labor ss the new bslldlngs
was the easiest problem for Col
Slavens. Confined In the prison were
men from every walk of life, brick
layers, stone-masons, plumbers, mill
workers and laborers. Those who
knew no trade were given Instruction
In performing the work of ordinary
laborers. There are now 900 prison
ers. most of them army deserters,
snd 300 of these were employed on
the rnnstrurtion proper

prison, which consisted of quarrying
