pHoTECrED STEEL RAILS

Pending the discussion Of the Wilson
Tariff bill we pointed out the inconsistent
cy of the proposal to admit coal free and
TO put a heavy tariff on steel rails, aside
from the fact that the Government re-
ceived from the tariff on bitumnOus coal
over $4,000 and from that on steel rails
only s2O,s2a23. it being assumed that q
tariff for revenue would not be taken
from articles which promised TO pay a
revenue. and continued on those from
which nothing could be expected.
Bat this further fact seemed then plain
that the tariff on steel rails was purely
a protective tariff. but it is even clearer
to-day. No revenue worth mentioning.
if. indeed, any at all is now collected
from steel rails or probably ever will
be, because these rails can be made mucn
cheaper in America than anywhere else,
and the foreigner who attempts to come
into this country will be hopelessly UNI
dersold. unless a question of freight TO
some remote point on the Pacific would
force the rails into this country. Mean
time all OF our railroads are required TO
pay the protected price for rails, and the
Government gets nothing.
The New York Times recently made
the following statement;
1t is well known that the cost of con-
verting Bessemer pig iron into steel rails
only slightly exceeds the cost of making
billets out of the same material. But
while billets are S15, steel rails are SD
Why? Because the production and sale
of rails are controlled by a combination.
The following table shows the decline of
prices since 1890.

The railroad companies need rails. But
in these days the companies are poor.
So long as the price shall he held far
above the level which it would have
reached under conditions of fair competi-
ton, they viii buy only when necessity
compels them to do IT, Fair prices for
rails would enable and induce companies
TO replace badly-worn stock and would
at the same time stimulate the iron in
dustry.
Where an article pays no revenue under
tariff for revenue. il is proof positive
that the tariff is too high, and should
be reduced until revenue is derived. or
perhaps cut down eventually 10 the van
isa.ng point. and the article put on the
free list. Protection may be incidental
to revenue but in this case a pretended
purpose to get revenue is made the cover
FOR the rankest protection-at the ex-
pense of the railroads and their patrons.

Control Of the ssnate.

From the Providence journal.
The rumors flying about now in regard
to the coming reorganization Of the
Senate Finance Committee are more
interesting than they would be but for
the light they throw on the broader
question OF the control Of the whole
upper branch OF the new Congress That
question Is still unsettled, partly because
the margin OF possible power Is so mar
row either way that the failure thus far
to elect q senator from Delaware leaves a
disproportionatsly large element OF doubt
ir the situation, partly because Of un-
certainty regarding the classification of
some nominally Republican senators,
whose political orthodoxy is in dispute,
and partly because each OF the leading
parties has shown desire to avoid the
responsibility OF control, and to make it
easy for the other to take It. In the
rather novel struggle TO escape the
duty Of organizing the Senate It is, II
anything, more difficult to foresee the
outcome than 1t would be In the case OF
on ordinary fight to secure power.
