G.-P. in the New York Tribune’s Conning Tower. War has effected a large number of things in the United States. Once more it has laid its unwelcome hand in this country. This time it has crept into the administration of govern- ment. Any new postage stamp will prove it. George Washington form- erly was set off in the two cent is- sues with a bright red. Now the back- ound has become a pale pink. Short- ze of dyes is the cause. Unconfirmed reports are that death beat Uncle Sam in the hunt for Villa. Even though the rcal Mexican bandit t dead it makes a good excuse for withdrawing the troops. The oppor- tunity should not be overloked. It is consoling, though, to think that our boys will not return from Mexico entirely empty handed. They will have a perfectly good coat of tan. But, then, history may record that we roared into Mexico lke a lion and \sneaked out like a mouse. All roads lead somewhere, but with many the road to success begins and fends in a blind trail.

That the Democratic tariff has proved highly injurious to the farm-|the er without the slightest offset in re- duced prices to the consumer is abundantly proved by the statisties compiled by Demoeratic officials of the government, says a Washington correspondent. The importation of meats and dairy products, wool, farm animals (in- cluding cattle, hogs, sheep and poul- try), eggs and such products of the soil as grains, hay, vegetables #nd plants has increased by leaps and bounds. During the first ten monthe of the Underwood bill the increase in this class of importation over the import- ation during the like period of the Payne bill amounted to $102,000,000, or 142 per cent. Even the war, which has operated in some respects like a protective tariff by diminishing for- eign production and increasing the .foreign demand, could not offset the reduced rates of the Underwood bill, the increase during ten months of the war under the Democratic measure being 100 per cent over a like period under the Payne bill. It requires no expert economist or statistician to calculate what injury would have been done the farmer had not the European war intervened to diminish to some extent the effects cf the Democratic tariff, or what would be the results to the farmers if the war should suddenly cease before that bill is radically revised. A FABLE. Once upon a time there was a Great Big Lummiz named Sam. When he was born, way back in 1776, he was a puny youngster, but owing to the fact that he had a Splendid Constitution, and plenty to eat, he developed rapid- ly. He was a healthy chap; the only serious illness he had was some in- ternal disorder—back in 1861. Since | then he had been loafing along, eat- ing a lot, growing fat and wealthy: developing his mind but not his body. One day, Willie, the pugnacious chap | who lived across the way, punched him in the stomach. said Sam. “I don’t like it,” Willie laughed good-naturedly and; hit him again. Now. there was a nasty little boy named Francisco, who lived down in the alley, and when he saw how the Great Big Lummix was being treated by Williz he thought he would like to get in the game, so he stepped on Samniay’'s toe. Sammy became greatly enraged at his presumption and started aft:r Fra»- ciseo, vowing to punish him. But| Francisco was a nimble little fellow and ran off, and Sam found that he had grown so fat that he couldn’t catch him. : down on a job wriggled The fellow who lays usually finds the job has from under him.
