The intelligent Democrat of today is not excusing his party's acts nor’ de-| fending its administrative record. He may be saying but little; but he is thordughly convinced and has had enough. .

ANSWERS humble school, where the American Building, | ing this measure, which is designed tol citizen is trained. what way already known, that the manufacturers of ‘shoddy’ are. oppos- help beth the purchaser of woolen goods and the woo} grower. “The bill provides that a fabric shall be stamped or labeled to show what it is made of. If it is all wool—that is virgin wooj—it should be so stated. If it is part virgin wool and part ‘shod- * or wool that has been used before in a wornout garment, and has been renovated and made capable of being use? again, it should so state. The theory is the same as that which gov- erned the enattment of the pure food and drug act requiring a truthful state- ment of the ingredients of a commo- dity. In other: .words,.a square deal, ‘An attack on the bill has been made by manufacturers in an effort to show that certain kinds of ‘shoddy’ are ac tually better and commercially higher in price than certain kinds of virgin wool. This introduces another element into consideration, to the effect that the amount of virgin wool in a fabric is not necessarily a. measure of its in trinsic value. That, however, is not the point at issue in the pure wool bill. The point is that an article should be sold for what it really is. “Much profiteering is due to the manufacture of garments from fabrics that are represented to be ‘all wool,’ meaning all virgin wool, when they are If the public desires ‘shoddy’ made of ‘shoddy.’ to pay ‘all wool’ prices for garments, that is the public's business, but certainly no one should be com- pelled pay ‘all wool’ prices for under the mistaken impres: sion he is getting ‘all wool.’ The bill is designed to correet this evil, and,I to gress at a reasonably early day,” Gadi JF Se AMERICA’S GREATNESS. To so back, at times, to the masters, the great interpreters of the aims and hopes of the American republic, is but to renew our faith in our destiny and renew our confidence in our own abil- ity to guide our country safely through the crisis of the present, ‘There was no one save the immortal Lincoln, him- self, so competent to direct the way in the day in which he lived.» The Lin- con which to de- men, and second only to emancipator was his illus- of state, William His teachings apply to day with equal force that they instruct- ed the citizens of the day in which he lived.

Whether that glowing orb shall attain to a meridian height, or fall suddenly from its glorious sphere; whether’ those ‘prolific seeds ‘shall ma- ture into autumnal ripeness, or shall perish, yielding no harvest, depends on God's will and providence, But God's will and providence operate not by cas- ually or capriee, but by fixed and re- laws.

Demonstrating the urgent need of the recent railway legislation, bearing his name, and explaining its operation as well as disproving misrepresenta- tions concerning it, Senator Albert B, Cummins of Iowa has said; “The law establishes @ rule of rate-making for the guidance of the Interstate Com- merce Commission to continue for a pe- riod of two years. The rile directs the commission to adjust rates of trans portation so that they will, as nearly fas practicable, yield income equal to 5% per cent, Under such a b some of them will earn two per cent, some four per cent, some six per cent, !some eight per cent, a few more than eight and a, few less than two. And, in order to guhrd against excessive in comes, any railroad earning in any year more than six per cent upon the value of its property must one- half of the excess above six r cent to the government, ating a fund from which the commission may make loans to railroad companies upon prop- er security for the purpose of purchas- ing the equipment and facilities of which the country is in such dire need. “Ignorance and malice have con- spired to misrepresent this part of the law. ‘The people are «being told that Congress has guaran return of 5% cent to the railroads, inelud- ing all their watered stock.
