Take Your Choice.
Although tho democratic tariff bill
has gono only through ono house, a
controversy Is already threatened as
to who should have tho credit for It.
Hero Is part of a eulogy pronouncod
by our amlablo democratic contempo
rary, the World-Herald:
The passage of the democratic tariff
bill through the house, practically with
out change as drafted by tho commllteo
on ways and menns, constitutes a re
markablo trlbuto to the leadership of
Chairman Underwood. About tho only
concesslonn Mr. Underwood made were
those mado In the beginning to President
Wilson.
In contrast with this, read this
paeon In another democratic organ,
none other than Mr. Bryan's Com
moner: All praise to President Wilson for tho
stand he has taken, and to 8peakcr Clnrk
and Chairman tTndcrwnod for tho hearty
co-operation they have given him.
Head ono version and you will havo
tho Impression that Mr. Underwood
waB tho whole thing, merely throwing
a crumb or two to tho president to
keep him satisfied; read tho other
version, and you will bo sure Presi
dent Wilson did It all, graciously per
mitting Speaker Clark and Chairman
Underwood to push along behind.
"You pays your money, nnd you
takes your choice."
Wilson and the Colored Man.
Says tho Washington correspond
ent of tho Atlanta Constitution:
President Wilson today replaced throo
moro negro federal officeholders with
white men. thus answering the query an
to whether ho would let his Virginia bloo.l
or New Jersey training guldo him In ap
pointments to federal office.
It Is nn old Baying that "blood Is
thicker than water," and evidently
tho rule applies oven to presidents.
Many negroes In public office aro
rapidly discovering to their sorrow
what supplanting a republican pres
ident with a domocratlc president
moans. Whether all tho colored men
aro to bo turned out of office is not
certain, but a good many aro being
displaced. Ono of tho last throo to
go is William H. Lewis, an assistant
attorney goneral, whoso reten
tion Mr. Wlckorshanv is said to havo
urged strongly on tho ground sim
ply of etftclenoy,
Tho democratic party, of courso,
has never done anything for tho
negro In politics and naturally, as
history fully explains, tho negro as
a rule, supports tho republican
party, but novertheloss thoro Is
moro thaa mero party politics In
this mattor. While wo aro preaching
civil service and tho merit system
In offlco-holdlng It ought to -bo
maintained without a color lino. Tho
capable efficient black, office-holder
is entitled to tho samo consideration
as tho capable efficient whlto office
holder, yet apparently nepd not ex
pect It at tho hands of a democratic
administration,
Mr. Morgan's Offer.
In publicly disclosing tho offer of
Mr. Morgan to place his colossal re
sources at the command of President
Wilson In ovent tho government
neodod help, ' Colonel Hnrvey adds
that the lato master of flnanco re
garded tho policies ndvancod by Mr.
Wilson with honest npprohenslon,
"but nover considered tho domo
cratlc party fully capable of govern
ing tho nation."
But for tho solemn nnture of tho
caso and the doslro not to show dlB
respoct to Mr. Morgan's groat spirit
of patriotism, ono might bo Btruck
by tho humor of a certain aubtle
suggestion in his cstlmutlon ot the
democracy, What could ho expect
from four years af domocratlc rule
that he should offer In ndvanco to
throw Into tho breach tho influence
of his llmltloss resources?
Idle Talking
Mrs O. H. P. Bolmont tarrying in
London en route to her beautiful
summer home villa amid the vine-
clad hills of southern France, an
nounces 'through the press:
I mean Just what I say when I declare
that If New York falls to awake, wa
shall Introduce militant methods of the
type used In England.
What talk! Mrs. Belmont, while
one of our most conspicuous latter
day suffraglBts ot the so-called mil
itant order, was not one ot the
pioneers who blazed tho way of tho
early crusade In this country nnd
sowed tho seed that brought woman's
suffrage to vogue In nine states, as
at present. Perhaps it sho woro, bUo
would not Indulgo In such talk. She
would appreciate too keenly the fact
that threats aro not calculated to
obtain for woman whatever rights
she may claim in this country. Per
haps if "militant methods of the
tyne used in Eneland" had benn
adopted by tho pioneers, tho Amerl-
can women might still bo where the
British women are today.
Prof, Taft says everybody earning
a salary from $1,000 up should pay
an Income tax to Inspire hla sense ot
Interest and responsibility In the gov
ernment. Still a good many small
salaried people are likely to refuse to
regard that as an Indtspenslble In
splratlon ot patriotism.
As a precautionary measure, It
might behoove Congressman Murdock
to go slow about reading members
out of tho bull moose party. It Is not
so easy to get recruits In times ot
peace.
What a Joko It would bo on Em
peror William if his stolen handbags
should be returned with Information
I that they aro useless to tho robber,
j and therefore not worth keeping.

MAY BUILDING HER HOUSE.
Richard Le Galllenne.
May is building her house. With apple,
blooms
She Is roofing over the glimmering,
rooms ;
Ot the oak and the beeoh hath sho
budded Its beams.
And, spinning all day at her secret
looms.
With arras of leaves each wind-swayed;
wall
She plctureth over, and pcopleth It all
With echoes and dreams,
Jtni singing of streams.
May Is building her house. Of petal and
blade.
Of- the roots or the oak Is tho flooring
mode,
With a carpet of mosses and lichen andi
clover,
Each small miracle over and over.
And tender, traveling green things
strayed.
Her windows, the morning and evening;
star.
And her rustling doorways, ever ajar
With the, coming and going
Of fair things blowing1.
The thresholds of the four winds are.
May Is building her house. From'tha
dust of thing's
She Is making the songs and the flowers
and the wings;
From October's tossed and trodden gold;
She is making the young year out ofi
the old;
Yea, out of winters flylns sleet
She Is making all tho summer sweet.
And the brown leaves spumed of No
vember's feet
She Is changing back again to spring's.
