As the party that takes 'this stand is in full executive and legislative control, and is at work on the task it has courted, it must now proceed to make good, or run against a failure, which will not be its first. It must show at the start that it is capable of a sufficient degree of har mony to carry through a tariff pro gram. Next must come the lowering of prices promised, and without evil results that would 'more than coun terbalance the advantages, whatever they might be. Consumers are look ing on and are in constant touch with the cost of living. They will kpow exactly what happens in this respect. Supposing that the Democratic party will pass the tariff law its lead ers have framed, will it bring a ful fillment of what is pledged to the people without any serious disturb ance of industry, wages' and oppor tunities for employment? Will gen eral prosperity continue, and con sumers rejoice in a lowered cost of what they eat and wear, with no impairment of their means to pay? Will placing an article on the free list surely reduce correspondingly its price to the consumer? These are questions about to be answered by practical events. Throughout the world the cost of living is high. A tariff revision in the United States will not revolutionize world-prices, nor bring a world-wide upheaval in the laws of supply and demand. The people of this country can only wait now for. results. They will know ex- Al.S rtteM6xM limwi Pw m iwM'M ' - V . : W' Will 6 Young Men Ought to Study Politics 5 By Professor HA&RY T.

COMING IN FREELY Front-street dealers in Portland re-4 port new potatoes coming in from the south much more freely than heretofore and a decided improvement in the quality of the offerings as well. In the market district there are con siderable quantities of Californias of very good size and fine appearance, and the wholesalers reported a brisk movement of the commodity, gener ally at 6 l-2c to 7c a pound. The coming of new stock of course to 'some extent affects the trade in old potatoes, though in a less degree t'aan will be the case a few weeks hence, when new crop offerings will be more plentiful and available at lower prices. There will be some de mand for old potatoes for two months but the jobbers who are in communi cation with the outside markets at all times say there is no hope for anything like a cleanup of the 1912 stocks still left in the state.
