Help the man who needs hell
is what ought to be done, bul
sometimes the man who needs
the help is the one who can't
get it. The man who is able t,(
help himself can get plenty o
help, but he doesn't need if,
But the poor fellow who is down
and out, and wanting and need
ing help is the one who is goij
erally neglected and sometimes
actually refused help. Give hi
a helping hand at least once
and see if there is anytlihing in
him worthy of help.

Tariff Bill is
Now a Law
Surrounded by leaders of a
united Democracy, President
Wilson at 9:09 o'clock last Fri
day night signed the Under
wood-Simmons tariff bill at the
Wh ite House. Simultaneously
telegrams were sent to customs
collectors throughout the coun
try by the Treasury Department,
putting into actual operation
the first Democratic tariff revis
ion since 1894.
A happy group of legislators
members of the Cabinet and
friends encircled the President
as he smilingly sat down and
slowly affixed his signature with
two gold pens.
He presented the pen that had
written the word 'Woodrow"
to Representative Underwood of
Alabama, and the one that coni
pleted his name to Senator Sim
mons of North Carolina, both of
whom bowed their appreciation.
EMANCIPATION OF BUSINESS.
In impressive silence the Pres
ident rose and delivered in easy,
natural tones an exteniporano
ous speech that biought pro
loneved applause. He declared
the Journey of legislative accom
plishnient had not been com
pleted; that a great service had
been (lone for tie rank and file
of the country, but that the sec
ond step in the emancipation of
bisiness was currency reform.
ie earnestly called upon his
colleagues to go "the rest of the
journey" with fresh impulse.
NINE MONTHS OF WORK.
The new tariff law, passed
otir years after President Taft
signed the existing Aldrich
layie law, is the result of moro
than nine months of work in
Congress. Hearings were start
ed January 6 by the House
Ways and Means Committee.
Chairman Underwood intro
(uneed the tariff bill April 7, im
mediately after President Wil
soni had convened the new Con
gress. It passed the House May
8 and the Senate September 9.
In the opinion of its makers,
the 1)emocratic leaders of Con
gres, tho most important fea
tures of the new tgriff are:
"A reduction of nearly one
half in the average tariff on
foodstuffs and farm products.
The placing of raw wool on
the free list, and a redIuction of
nearly two-thirds in the tariff
on woolen cloth ing, especially of
the cheaper grad1es.
A reduction of one-third (av.
(rage) on cotton clothing.

Abolishment of aMl tariff on
meats, fishdairy products, flour,
potatoes, coal, iron ore, lumber
and many classes of farm and
office machinery.
GENERAL TARIFF REDUCTION.
General tariff reduction on all
important articles in general use.
Throughout the long fight
over the bill, the Republican at
tack on the measures has been
directed against those rates
which the Republicans declared
were so low as to threaten de
struction to American .indus
tries, through the competition
of foreign manufacturers. The
Democratic supporters of the
new law have insisted that "ex
cept in those cases where public
welfare demanded radica1
changes, the tariff has been re
duced only to a point where it
will stimulate competition,"
without turning American mar
kets over to foreigners.
A great amount of work will
fall upon the Treasury DepaFt
ment, it is expecte-d, in working
out the details of the new in
come tax and the methods of
collecting the direct taxes from
indiyidual citizens of the United
States. The tax upon corpora
tions, now fixed at one per cent.
of their income, remains the
same, and becomes part of the
general income tax law, A
staff of special deputies, collect
ors and agents will be employed
to organize and con(luct the
work of income tax collection.
