Exaggeration is one OF the curses OF
the American newspaper world. A
striking instance of it is the paragraph
now gong the rounds, saying that the
Turkish Minister had brought a harsm
to Washington. This paragraph has
greatly distressed Ali Fsrrough Bey,
the Turkish Minister to the United
States, who is a quiet and modest gen.
tleman. He says it has made him afraid
to pick up an American newspaper,lest
he discovers new variation Of the irri-
tation and utterly untruthful story. He
has no harem with him. The story
grew out of the presence Of his wife,
who is in bad health, and who was given
permission by the Sultan to accompany
him, solely because her physician ad-
vlsed long sea voyage.
Men in Congress who are usually
well.informed are expressing the opin-
ion that if the United States Supreme
Court decides that Congress has not the
constitutional right to impose u duty
upon the products Of any territory
owned by the United States, as claimed
by the Porto Rican tariff bill, that the
retention of the Philippines by the Uni,
ted States, will be an impossibility. AL
ready, prominent Senators and Repre-
sentatives haye SAID that they would
prefer giving up the Philippines to Civ
ing up the protective tariff. which not
be maintained with the Philippines hav-
ing free trade with the United States,
and presenting the "open door" to the
commerce Of the world which is pledged
in the Paris treaty which transferred
them from Spain to the q. s. This
aspect of the question has already been
touched upon in the debate in the Sen,
ate, and it will be gone into much deep
or before that body disposes Of the Por-
to Rico bill.
Everybody now recognizes how i'm
portant and far.reaching are the ques-
tions involved in the Porto Rico tariff
bill, which has passed the House and is
now being considered BY the Senate.
When the bill was being debated in the
House, it was broadly asserted that this
government had promised the world
that commercially the "open door" pol
icy should prevail IN the Philippines.
Senator Foraker, Chairman of the SEN
ate Porto Rican committee, said on the
same subject: "Beyond Porto Rico lie
the Philippines. 1t has been suggested
that in our eastern possessions We shall
have the open door, If we open the
Philippines to the trade of all the world,
we shall have the products OF the
world poured into the united otates,
and our whole protective tariff system
will fall to the ground. This raises a
question on which it is entirely unlike
" Senators in debate will ever get to-
gether. 1t will have to be determined
by the Courts, and it is highly import
ant that the determination shall be
reached SOON" Although Senator For
aker was the first to publicly say as
much, the belief among them has been
general that the questions involved
could be more fttingly decided by the
United States Supreme Court than in
the field of partisan politics.
