WASHINGTON kUMoRs.

There are many rumors from WASH
ington these days, some of which are
manifestly too ridicnlons- to be given
consideration or credence, and some are
probable enough to cause anxiety.
Among the latter are the reports that
the Democratic administration means
to make raid upon the reciprocity
principle of the Mckinley act. 1t is
argued that this cannot be accomplished
except through the action of congress.
1t may not be entirely safe to rely upon
this. The constitution furnishes no
warrant for the Presidents course rela-
tive to Hawaii. and there is no reason
to expect that the limitations it imposes
upon action upon the reciprocity clause
of the tariff law will be esteemed an in
superable barrier to whatever course
the President thinks may be advisable
or polite.
Ths reciprocity feature of the tariff
law is its tower Of strength, when that
law is brought to the quick crucial test
of proof in hand of its efficicacy. When
1t is attacked there are long arrays of
figures showing what it has actually ac-
complished that can be brought forward
to confuse the enemies of the protective
policy Of the Republican party.
Some portions of the tariff act have
yet scarcely been able to demonstrate
their full value to the business of the
country in such fashion as to admit of
the use of arrays of figures that cannot
be disputed. But the reciprocity clause
responded at once, and now it can be
shown for it that it brings millions of
dollars to this country every year, and
cannot by any twisting of fact be made
to show that it is in the slightest degree
tax, even in the perverted sense the
Democrats argue that the tariff oper-
ates in some other particulars to inn
pose tax upon consumers.
The reciprocity policy is absolutely
unassailable, if it is considered from
the standpoint of its usefulness to the
trade and the people of this country,
and any other way of viewing it is false
and not to be tolerated.

The popular theory respecting churches

the tenets they advocate.
The most powerful arguments against
this theory are furnished by the church

ample of this has just been furnished
by Hartford church, which has form
