But by this time the South had become
heartily opposed to protection. Conse-
quently in the following year the social
ed compromise tariff act was passed The
idea of the act of 1888 was gradually to
reduce the rate of duty until in 1912 a
general rate of 20 per cent. should be
reached. All duties exceeding this rate
were to be reduced one tenth of the ex-
cess every two years for a period of eight
years; and in 1912 the remaining excess
was to be removed. Economists have al
ways considered this act of little benefit,
and some go so far as to say it caused
great harm. The reduction, if any reduc-
ton was really needed, was too sudden in
1912, and as result there was great up
heaval in business circles. There was
danger of further Intervention by some
Congress during that period, and this fact
led to uncertainty. And last, but not
least. the fixed rate of 20 per cent. is con-
sidered by economists to have been not
only unjust, but eminently injurious to
certain branches of industry.
This uncertainty and danger led almost
inevitably to movement toward enacting
a new tariff. AS matter of fact the 20
per cent. rate remained in force but two
months, from July l, 1912, until Septem-
Der of the same year. The Democrats
opposed every attempt to change the
tariff, either to lower it or to raise it. The

SALISBURY TO RETIRE.
Important Change Imminent in the
British Cabinet.

British Cabinet.
London, Oct. 1s.-The daily Chronicle
announces that in view of Lord Sails
bury's desire to resign the premiership
an early reconstruction of the cabinet
is probable. According to the Daily
Chronicle no serious difference of opin-
ion exists among the ministry on mat
tiers of policy, but Lord Salisbury finds
his health unequal to the strain and
burden of his two offices of premier and
foreign minister. The queen is reluc-
tant to sanction his retirement, and
therefore it may be deferred for time
In these matters her majesty exercises
her prerogative to greater extent than
is generally known. For instance, her
wish became royal command when
Lord Rosebery against his own wish
took the foreign-office portfolio in Mr..
Gladstone's cabinet. Serious ill health,
however, relieves the subject against
even such an obligation, and it is prob
able that Lord Salisbury's resignation
will be accepted at no remote period.
