THE AMERICAN TARIFF AND
AFTER

The conference report on the new tariff
bill has been passed by the house of rep
resentatives by 1856 votes to 11S, so that
house and senate have been brought I'M to
agreement, and another tariff statute
will be added to the long list passed from
time to time by congress- Into the min
ute points of difference between the two
houses, involving scores of complex de-
tails, it is impossible to enter. On some
points the senate gave way, ON some
points the house abandoned it's position,
and the result is a compromise, partly
due, no doubt, to the general desire to
end the session and to get away from the
extreme summer heat of Washington.
But when we speak of compromise we
must not be understood as meaning a
substantial compromise between high
tariff men and revenue reformers. The
bill was originally a high protectionist
measure, and such it remains. The du-
ties on agricultural products are prac-
tically the same as those of the McKin-

my mind a trifle. This is what he said:
The machine is shaped just as cigar
would be If it were three-cornered. 1t is
arranged for four riders, who sit in the
same fashion that two do on tandem.
They are not directly above the top CEN
ter of the machine, but rather at one of
the sides. The method of locomotion has
three parts, consisting of a sab-shaped
paddle on each side and a screw at the
stern which at the same time acts as
rudder. The main body of the machine
is formed of iron, steel and aluminium
1t is really in two sections, though 1t
appears to be in but one.
Tiny driving rods connect the gearing
of the machine with the rear wheels, so
that when the riders do not care to
operate the machine by means of the
pedals each presses a spring which is
attached to the frame of the machine
just below the handlebars. This opens
a valve which permits the entry of COM
pressed air. which is stored in one of the
halves of the machine. This compressed
air acts as motive power and sets the
wheels in motion.

sentatives, himself moderate protec-
zionist, and by far the ablest man of the
party. But a caveat was entered against
any such policy by the power which
really rules congress, and which has,
for a time at least firm grip on the
American people. This power is that
of organized and concentrated capital
as represented by the trusts and rings of
monopolists. 1t was this power which
secured the nomination of Mr. Mckinley
against even the regular wirepullers of
the party. Long trains of palace cars
brought the great monopolists and their
agents to ST. Louis at the time of the Re-
publican convention, and these repre-
sentatives of predominant interests, un-
der the guidance of Mr.. (now senator)
Hanna, decided the nomination and
probably the policy of the party as we'll

The sugar trust has, in the main, carried
it's points, though the senate has given
way on low grade sugar, and the reci-
procity treaty with Hawaii, which con-
Germs the sugar trust intimately is re-
tanned. AS regards the wool section, the
Mckinley policy is revived, thus involv-
ing dearer clothing for the mass of the
people. In short, speaking generally, we
may say that the new act, which is to
come into operations at once, is a revival
of the old polAy with which the name of
the present president is so closely asso-
ciated.
Now, it is certain that this new meas
ure was not generally and vehemently
demanded. Tens of thousands of votes
were cast last year for the Republican
party solely because of the free silver
issue. Business men were afraid of a
Bryanite victory as disturbing to finance
and trade; working men Tin very large
numbers at any rate) feared that prices
would go up and wages, paid in depre-
ciated currency, would go down. Many
Independent voters who sympathized
with the western farmers nevertheless
disapproved of their remedies. Not one
of these voted for Mr.. Mckinley because
he desired any extreme tariff legislation.
To do Mr.. Mckinley himself Justice, he
dwelt largely in most of his numerous
|speeches on the necessity for high tar.
iff, partly because he seems to believe
in it, partly to cover UP the awkward fact
that he had, not long before, advocated
free silver from ,his seat in congress
But, apart from Mr.. McKinley's per-
sonal uterances. there Is no doubt that
the campaign was fought, and, the Re-
publican victory won, not on the protec-
ZIONIST, but on the general currency issue.
1t was open, therefore, to the Republi-
cans to have accepted the manifest feel
ing of their composite body of support
ers, and, while of course adhering to
their protectionist principles, to have
given the Wilson act fair trial and to
have passed short measure making up
the deficit in the revenue which that act
had entailed. 1t was understood that

never before has the complete domina-
tion of the party by huge monetary in
terests been made so palpable to the
average man. Congress has practically
been ordered to protect the trusts, and it
has obeyed. There has this time been
no pretense even of protecting the Amer
lean workmen against the "pauper labor
of Europe" while it goes without saying
that the old talk about Infant indus
tries has perforce been abandoned We
find protection in it's final stage, in its
bare mercenary aspect, stripped. of the
old pretentions and excuses, such as
writers like J. S. Mill admitted, and re-
duced to it's last analysis as means of
enabling wealthy corporations to levy
a tribute on the masses, and to use the
powers of government for adding to their
already enormous piles.
The American people are, as many OF
their writer's have pointed out, patient
and long-suffering. They permit many
things which Englishmen scarcely toler-
ate, because it takes too much trouble
to sweep them away, and because "busi-
ness is so all-pervading and omnipotent
that few find time to make the public
veal their own, private cause. But when
the American people do rise they are apt
to be swift and sudden, like the cyclones
of the prairies, and it Is awkward for
those who stand in their way. 1t seems
to us that this latest audacious enter
prise Of the trusts is not unlikely to bring
it's Nemesis. Workmen who see that
very slight alteration in the sugar
schedules puts millions into the Golfers of
the sugar trusts are not likely to be und er
the delusion that protection is adopted
for their good. People who are called
on to pay for their coats because the
wool interest demands it will noto be
greatly impressed by the fact that more
sheep farms are in existence in Ohio,
or few more woolen factories are being
built in New England or New York,

air being secured from a reservoir that
is carried on their backs, after the fash
ion of knapsack Thus equipped, they
drive the machine beneath the surface
of the water any desired depth, and steer
directly to that portioa of the object Of
attack to which it is intended to fasten
the torpedo. The idea is, as rule, the
inventor says, to fasten the explosive
directly upon the keel of the vessel, in
the manner shown in the accompanying 6
illuStrat tion.
This done, an electric wire is attached
to the torpedo, the other end Of which is
fastened to an electric battery upon the
machine. The wire, or rather, the vast
amount of slack thereof, is coileS so that
one of the divers can hold it in his hand.
The entire wire is, of course, insulated
after the fashion Of tiny ocean cable
Once the torpedo is in place and the wire
made fast, the submarine bicyclists
move away from the vessel to any de-
sired distance, or, If she happens to be
moving, keep themselves as near as
possible in the same position until the
proper length of wire has been played
out.
and an explosion follows. One might
think that the submarine bicyclists
would find it very difficult to carry about
with them sufficient quantity of wire
to enable them to place a sufficient dis
tance between themselves and the ves-
sci against whom their operations have
been directed, but the inventor is very
positive that this can easily be done. He
says that he has figured the force of the
explosion upon the water and is conf
dent that by allowing themselves to sink
short distance, the operators of the
submarine engine Of destruction will al
most entirely avoid the shock which they
would ordinarily feel as the result Of the
explosion.

warfare, but there are those among
naval experts who declare the scheme
chimerical.
This newest of queer inventions is a
submarine bicycle. but its purpose is
deadly, for it is intended to act as an
agent for the destruction of warships.

ures, and a few people profess to accept
his views, but the French government
is by no means convinced of the practical
bility of the idea. Still the man of gen.

he says, spend a considerable portion
of his capital in building full sized

facts. They laughed at Fulton when
