If I his country can achieve a greater material prosperity thrmiKli a
higher tariff, then a higher tariff justifies itself. For it prospermia
country can only mean a prosperity that is passed nvmtni', I'nilei'
modern economic cnnjlitions it is inipossihle for a few to reap all I he
harvest, and the rtuiuy none at all. The division may not he just, hut
that is an affliction only time can alleviate. The important point In
ememlier is that a prosperity somewhat iineipially divided is far hel
ler, morally and econumicall. than no prosperity at all.
.Some of our best economists lielievi! a hijrli. protective tarilT will
do no (joinl. The prohlem is a complicated oni; ;. perhaps they aVe
fit III. lint I hut is no excuse for placinir a higher tariff under the
lii'tidiiiff of political criiiies. It is no reason for raising the moth eaten
cry of hoodie and firaft. ' .
In our opinion, if the. Republican adininisf ration brings this cimn
(ry fiooiMjitios, it will be through economy, elimination of extrava
gance and yastia, a return to sound business principles. And also in

I have the suhstailcti of a man,
The possibilities of (,'ood,
I know bis fashion and his plali,
And could be manly, if I would.
Hnl.h brawn- and brain were given me,
Then why should la iiireliii"; be
T see the sell'-same sun and sky
That every man'of sreal ness sees,
lie cannot see in walking by
More beauty in the flowers and trees,
I can clearly bear as be '
The son birds' lunrniiiu; melody , '
.My hands are stroiif;, my muscle trim,

I have no crippled spine or limb!
Of what are other men possessed
Who rise to fume which T ninst laek
What is it that has held me back?
Reason? have the power to think,
I learned the sHI'-ssme things at. school,
t know llie use of pen and ink,
liil'e has not dubheil me yet a fool,
And yet a hireling f remain
While others wealth and "fame attain.
As others think.yon have not thought.
As others tiai'i'd you would not darn,
