MISREPRESENTATION. IL the Senate should leave
that out the bill would lose nothing. But in
stead the Senate has attempted to put into the
measure much that does not belong TO 1t a all,
ana hnds occasion at this late day 10 propose
the addition of phrases which may possibly
please some followers of Bryan. Surely it would
be better to take out of the bill every line that
is not essential to its purpose. and then see
what record the Senators wish TO make for
themselves
IN the elections this year much may depend
In some States upon public confidence in the
courage and candor of Republicans. The party
may be quite st1png enough TO defeat Bryan
ism in the Presidential election and yet not
strong enough to carry through men who look
TO both sides for support in Senatorial contests
or Congress districts If member tries to
make bill perfectly acceptable to the bank
ers and also to the followers of Bryan he NAV
meet disappointment. Whether the Senate bill
with its proposed changes is likely to excite in
voters of either party strong admiration for
those who prefer it to the House bill and vote
for it is question worth some thought

the future? why should they not act In har
mony and impose high rates on buildings and
on stocks which are not properly protected and
in all instances where owners give reason to
suspect that they negligent? Competition
has been carried too far. In the feverish strug
gle for business rates have been cut to such
figures as almost TO encourage recklessness with
regard to fires. When owners of property find
that they must pay exceedingly high rates I'M
less they satisfy the companies as to their pru-
dence and discretion, the condition of affairs
will be more satisfactory than 1t Is now.
Pressure of this sort applied by the companies
would be legitimate and proper, but when the
owners of old fashioned, cheaply constructed
and badly planned buildings can get as much
insurance as they wish to carry at extremely
low rates, they are not likely TO bestir them
selves for the protection of buildings or stocks.
The companies have the remedy in their own
hands. VIII they fail to meet the exigencies Of
this crisis?

THE Puerto RICO TARIFF.

The proposal 10 establish a tariff for Puerto
with a reduction of 20 per cent on both sides In
commerce with the United States, is condemned
in some quarters unjust, oppressive and in
human treatment Of that island. Just why it
would be does not appear.
We assume that all legitimate demands would
be met if the United States were to put Puerto
Rico in a decidedly more favorable fiscal con-
dition than it was in when under Spanish rule
AT that time the island was fairly prosperous
and asked commercially nothing more than reci-
procity with the United States to make Ii en-
tirely happy. One might suppose from what is
now said that ithad then no tariff. The fact is
that it had a particularly elaborate tariff, with
high rates-higher, in general, than it is likely TO
have under the proposed legislation. And
suredly the IS per cent horizontal reduction
proposed will be more advantageous to it than
any reciprocity which it ever enjoyed.
Beyond doubt Puerto Rico is now in urgent
need of fiscal relief. Beyond doubt, too, the
manner to give 1t to the island at the earliest
possible moment. But let there be exercised
some discretion and sense of proportion in the
matter. If we give Puerto Rico better fiscal
system and greater commercial and Industrial
prosperity than it ever had before shall we not
be doing justly and even generously? Whether
the proposed legislation will do that Is the only
pertinent question. If it will do 1t, the legis-
laton is all than can reasonably be asked.

Nothing exciting has occurred In wheat Some

in the belief that somebody at Chicago or else
at Liverpool had done something. Exports from
both coasts said to have been 1902 357
bushels, flour included, against 5, $50 500 last
year, but the familiar stories Of damage by frost
which everybody expects to hear with regularity
at this time OF the year, set in with more real
visor than the fross and yet the change in prices
is insignificant Corn goes abroad without much
change in prices, the shipments continuing not
far behind those of last year. making for the
crop year thus far over 13S,OO0O00 bushels
against 107, 600 600 last year
In spite of the decrease in wheat shipments
the domestic exports from New York last week
We're $1,237 900 larger than last year, and have
averaged about as much each week since the
year began, nearly 0 per cent The imports at
NewYork last week were not quite as large as
those Of last year, but in the last six weeks the
increase over last year has been 90 per cent
The ease in the money market has made 1t OF
comparatively little interest whether European
markets look TO this country for further loans
or not, and perhaps the news from the seat of
war may yet have more 20 do with foreign
money markets than their recent temper might
indicate. But the balance on merchandise ac-
count in favor Of this country is stin SO very
heavy and seems likely to continue SO large
that embarrassment OF a monetary sort need not
be feared for months to come unless it should
result from laundering action in Congress. 1t is
conceivable that radical change in the basis of
the banking circulation might at such time
lead to some trouble The volume of business
transacted through clearing houses has fallen
slightly below that of last year in February

making experienced seafaring men
available for services aboard fightin,

II will be shown that in case OF war
tomorrow the United States war ships
now in service would require at least
500 officers and 10000 men for fighting
compliments. With national naval
reserve enrolled this force could be Sc
cured and made efficient In a few
weeks. while on the other hand, the
present naval militia system could not
supply one.tenth the number In twice

a cry of steamship, ahoy!" was heard

of the Tacoma. The Tacoma was hove

at Oakland she was magnificently ap.

the doctor and then was engaged for
a time in the then lucrative business
of opium smuggling. Afterwards she
was sold and became sealing schoon-

Behring sea. Latterly she was owned.
