THE SOUTH TURNING TOWARD PROTECTION

favor of something when an Ar

TRIUMPH OP CIVIC VIRTUE.
The change which fs in progress In the South as regards
the tariff is becoming more and more plainly apparent. The
people of that section are fast being converted to the belief
that reasonable protection is a good thing and fair to all
interests. A notable contribution to current discussion of
the subject is furnished by The Southern Tariff Advocate,
published at" Fort Worth, Texas. That a journal of this
character can be supported in the South is in itself testi
mony to the fact that a remarkable transformation in senti
ment is in progress. Less than a generation ago the South
was overwhelmingly for. low duties or-free trade.
Here is what The Southern Tariff Advocate has to say in
the course of its contention that free trade is to the disad
vantage of the South: 4
"Southern members of Congress who are opposed to a
- tariff on southern products have for their action no prece
dent among the real leaders of their partyfrom-Thomas
Jefferson down to the present day. Instead of meeting the
issue and dealing with it as some of their illustrious prede
cessors have done in similar circumstances, they meet facts
with froth and substitute political piffle for sound business
arguments. .They are incapable of defending their position
from a business standpoint, and only those with an utter
lack of responsibility for the welfare of the South will con
tinue to vote, to send such men to Congress."
That is pretty plain talk
But it is fully justified; fully justified by. the facts and
by the changed and changing sentiment in the South.
As. The Statesman Jias said so many times' the tariff
ought not to be made a political issue. It should never have
been a political issue.'. It is a business question. V It affects
members of all parties alike; should affect all sections alike.
If the new' tariff law now before Congress does not pro
vide for the raising and lowering of . duties an item or a
schedule at a time, as one of the amendments' proposes,
lodging the power in the President or some other competent
authority,' this must 'come later; ought, to come., England
does this, t France does it. m ' '' ; :-- .-. ;-'
That provision would go a long Way: to wards taking the
tariff out of politics, and out of . the logrolling' and monkey
ing and political 'trimming of Congress X- v. !

Sculptor AIcMonnies created a
statue emblematic of Civic Virtue
which whs to be placed in Central
park, New York, as a suitable
companion to Liberty and other
heroic figures. But when the
work was about ready for exhi
bition it was found that the sculp
tor had created a male figure.
Civic Virtue was represented by a
veritable Apollo in bronze. Mayor
Hylan and some of the park com
missioners made a roar that could
be heard beyond the three-mile
limit. The idea of a statue for a

So the mayor refused a place'for
the newi statue. It could be put
up in the cemetery or In 'front
of the Turnverein, but not in the
city park. But the majority of
the park commissioners were of
a different mind. They said that

way andirom the earliest times
of whlch Jwe have any record it
history, organized goyernmentf
have exacted and receivtd contri
butions from thtir citizens by way
of taxation.. Inx theory taxes are
the contributiorf of the citizen
for the beneflof orderly gov
ernment; the sipiirirV of the per
son, and protection of property.
The government of this country
was conceived In the principal
that there should be no taxation
without representation, and that
taxation should be uniform and
equaL To these principles there
has been added, by universal ap
proval, the corallary that taxation
should be as low as possible and
still produce sufficient revenue
ior orderly government. This
latter principle, while ndt con
tained, so far as we know, in an?
law or statute, is founded in jus
tice and reason and prevents the
confiscation of the property of
the citizen.
Taxes Doubled
In the state of Oregon, during
little more than the last dec;
taxes have more than doubled. A
large portion of this increase is
perhaps due to the more liberal
support given to the -various edu
cational institutions of the state.
and to the necessary j,cost of thj
construction of good roads whicii
has been large within that perv
iod. To a large extent, however,
the increase has been due to mul
tiplication of the organs of gov
ernment by way of a great abun
dance of supernumerary officials,
potty clerks, inspectors, commis
sioners, state boards and commis
sions. It is to the elimination of
such unnecessary drains upon the
revenues of the state that tne
earnest efrorts of our legislators
should be d.rectcd. To secure
such reforms will require ability
of high order; earnestness of
purpose; much study and hard
vork. A pleasing personality is
also essential, because of the ap
proval of the majority must be
obtained in order to secure re
mits. The cand date who prom
ises, if elected, to cut taxes in
half, or to eliminate all commis
sions, boards and the MKle, either
ta a rlemasrotrue merely seeking
otcs, or an ignoramus. In eith
er case such a man should not be
elected. Taxes can be reduced
but not eliminated. " .
Reduction Possible
Mr. George W. Hubbs. a prom
inent candidate for senator from
Marion county, possesses all of
the qualifications necessary to
determined what can be dispens
ed with without impairing the ef
ficiency of the state government,
and who, after makrng such de
termination, has 'a sufficiently
good personality to enable him to
get the necessary support to put
his ideas into execution. ot ins
for Mr: llubbs for senator will he
a vote for economy and efficiency,
which is the first and most im
rortant step towards securing low
taxes. Adv.

BLACK MAGIC -", .
The magician threw! a white
cloth over the girl who was acting
as bis assistant. : lie drew it slow
ly away; and she had vanished.
The audience gasped. -
Magic? - Of course not. Yon
can do It yourself. ' Here's how to
perform this .wonder and, many
other kinds of ' black stage mag
ic." - ... .-'
The secret is a rather deep,
boi-like stage fitted entirely with
black cloth. The light in the
room must be; very low, the only
radiant j light j being ' made : by a
row of candles or lamps - fixed
down along each side of the stage
No light must shine Into the
ttage, but' Into the eyes of the
audience. Anyth'ng black agaihst
this black sUge is invisible. 1
Tha disannearinsr 'trick 1 is
-worked by having a black clotb
Inside the white cloth-, thrown
over the girl. When the white
cloth: Is pulled away she, retains
the black one. over her and can
not he seen. : . She might pull the
Mack cloth around; her so jthat
her head remain uncovered. The
audience la then startled' to scie
head . apparently " -floating in the
air. She can add to the effect by
answering questions in a mystct
iou3, faraway voice." '
For a black stage show yon
l red' an Invisible assistant. That
apsiatant must be- dressed entire
ly In black, with a black cyl'nder
riask. This mask Is made from a
llece of Bolk and Is stitched in
the. form of a cylinder, with two
holes cut In the proper place for
eyes. Dressed In th's way;, the
assistant can move about on the
tfage without being seen at all
by the audience.
With the help of this assistant,
rny" wonders can be . worked,
the magician waves his hand a
table f slowly floats in through
the air. -But the assistant must
be careful not let his black-gloved
hands be seen on the edge of the
table.
There Is the barrel illusion, for
instance. Two barrels are placed
on the stage, rather far apart. The
magician collects some, Jewelry
from the audience and drops the
heap Into one of the barrels. Im
mediately h turns it upside down
and the Jewelry does not drop out.
He shews the audience that the
barrels is guito empty. Then he
walks over to the other,: barrel.
turns it' upside down, --and out
falls the Jewelry." ,
t The assistant you see, had held
A little black hag inside the first
barrel and into th's the Jewelry
dropped. He then carried the
bag. Invisible to the audience be
cause of its color, over, to ; the
second barrels .which was padded
Inside, and dropped the jewelry
In.
Now work out some tricks of
your own and put on a black mag
ie show that will have your aud
lence sitting on the edges of the'r
seats, their eyes as big- as aancenij
as .they watch the wonders you
work. ' '
ONE REEL YARNS i

.TICK MAGICIAN'S PKSKOX
. Bambo was a, blue-green p?g
eon. She was proud of her shin
ingr feathers, but most of all she
was proud of her job, for Bam
bo was a magician's pigeon, and
she- traveled about the country
with him."
-Every '.night the .. magic'an
brought out on the stage an emp
ty silk hat, waved his hand, and
pulled out Bambo, who fluttered
gracefully off Into the wings of
the stage. Never mind how he
did it That ia the magician's se
cret, no ours.
" Bambo shared honors with a
'vise old rabbit who was pulled by
the ears out of a chafing dish.
They, got along very well togeth
er. It was an easy life and both
were satisfied.
But Bambo was getting older
now. She no longer could fly so
swiftly and gracefully. She
Walked about stiffly. Her feath
ers were losing their gloss. The
magician noticed it and treated
her very tenderly. But one day
he brought home a new pigeon.
and Bambo, with an aching heart,
watched him teaching the new
p'geon how to fly up gracefully
out of the hat and flutter off into
the wings. He always brought
her out onto the stage, but he
kept the new pigeon wattivg.
It was a hot night and Bainbo
was tired. At the afternoon per
formance she had fallen asleep
before she got off the stage. She
sat a dull, huddled figure, in th
dressings room, waiting her turn.t
-men sree raised her neaa. -via
magician had taken out the'iitw
p'geon. ' -
She was half-blinded with grief
She could st'U go on. The new
pigeon might struggle, and ruin
the trick. She must gt before it
was too late. She limped out
her- little - house, which was al
ways unlocked, and. with a great
effort, flew out on the stage, just
fcs.the magician -was reaching in
to pull out the other pigeon.
He-felt her flutter against him.
and turned In surprise to grab
her. But Bambo fell, a heavy lit
tle lump, on the stage, while the
new pigeon circled about in a
panic. ' The aud'ence had started
to laugh, but stopped when they
saw the man stoop' and pick; up
the little heap of feathers and
hold It tenderly against bis cheek.
And the curtain went down on
Da mho's last act. -
