The loan bill having passed the House Of Rep
resentatives in such form as TO test the credit
ofgovcrnment it may be supposed that its finan-
cial endorsements have been oVercanie. We
wish that we could perceive in the late measures
of the House the signs Of result SO desirable
except at sacrifice almost ruinous to that credit
Such a test ought never to have been tried un-
less with such adiuncts to loan as would
strengthen the treasury proposals. A general
pledge of revenue from imports is no pledge at
all without:
l, The passage ofthe Appropriation Acts, to
ascertain The probable amount of the govern
ment expenditure, and.
2. The adoption of a tariff, to ascertain what
rate of duty on the imports will be imposed to
meet that expenditure and leave surplus for
the payment of the interest and the gradual extin-
guishment of the principal. The revenue may
not be more than adequate to the current eX-
penses OF the government. What then is gen.
eral guarantee of this kind worth without know
ing the probable income from the duties, the on
ly source of revenue left. The land revenue
was specific pledge atformer periods of govern
ment borrowing. Itsustained the Treasury pro-
posals for loans. 1t has been diverted to other
uses, and in its place we have general assur-
ance of faith that the public debt shall be paid
out of the public income, which, translated into
plain English, simply amounts to declaration
that the public faith ought to be preserved This

PHILADELPHIA, April3 1912.
This is dull cloudy day, though warm. The
churches have not been so well attended as thew
would have been had the day been propious to
the display offspring finefy with which the women
had prepared themselves. No matter, they will
turn out the stronger next Sunday, if fair, and scan
new cuts and celors with double earncstness.
The two meetings held yesterday afternoon, the
one by the friends and sympathizers of Texas in
OF Tariff beyond Broad street, were neither of
them as large as was expected they would be. The
news Published in the morning that the Mexican
invaders Of Texas were fast retracing their steps,
probably cooled much Of the zeal previously mani
tested in behalf Of our young sister republic.
very respectable number however attended, and
were addressed by Lieut. Small, the Rev. w. L.
McCalla, and others. Spirited resolutions were
passed and the meeting orderly adjourned. Mr.
Charles Porter, manager OF the Arch Street Thea
tre sent very patriotic letter to the meeting, offer
Ing the free use Of his house for benefit in favor
OF aiding the Texan finances. Porter is good fell
low and has ga soul as big as an OK" A company
OF about eighty able bcdied persons here, are on
the eve Of starting for Texas.
The tariff meeting did not number more than
five hundred persons, speakers and all 1t was
addressed by James Harper, Jos h. Chandler and
others, OF less note. The fsllacy OF Protection"
1 take it, is too thoroughly exposed-too well un-
derstood here, to be tortured into political capital
