Our Tariff and Its Revision.

1t is likely that the best course the
United States could pursue would be
to take up at an early date a thorough
revision of the existing tariff with a
view to cutting out of it all needlessly
high rates of duty, and making il as
little obstructive of foreign commerce
as circumstances will permit It is
plain enough that the time has come
when many schedules, like that OF
iron and steel, for instance, could be
sweepingly revised. There will be
much less danger of attempts at
European exclusion of American
wares If we proceed to pull down
some of the barriers the need of
which we have outgrown. For ex-
ample, with the American Tin Plate
Company now an Integral part of an
iron and steel corporation capitalized
at almost billion and a half dollars.
there is no longer any need to fear
the competition of European tin
plate. The only point to be consid-
cred is that of the maintenance of
the American scale of wages. Nor
is there any longer much reason
Tor dealing with the tariff as "a
party question. According to the
sounder theory of American protec,
tionists. the high tariff was to be
justified as a temporary means to an
assured end Certainly, that end
has now been to great extent, at
least, accomplished: and this coun.
try has reached, relative to other
countries. position of high and ma
ture industrial development. Even
admitting that under conditions ex.
listing ten or twenty years ago there
was close relation between the tariff
system and the rate of wages, IL
would not follow of necessity that
under the different conditions now
existing the average standard of
wages in the United States would be
much affected by a rapid change
from protective to revenue tariff.
the old-time theoretical arguments
of the protectionists and free traders
may all be safely neglected, In the
working out of a tariff-revision adapt.

GOVERNMENT TO Control.
II Private Company Builds Cable It
Must Give Uncle sam Advantage
OF Public Ownership.

Washington, Dec. 1O.-The present
congress viii provide for a Pacific
cable. This has been made clear In
the past few days. An alternative
faces the members, if they refuse to
take action, of having a special ses-
sion for the purpose. This is what
President Roosevelt has said to a
member Of the senate. The president
believes that the commercial and
military necessities of the country
make the construction of a cable an
absolute necessity.
With cable legislation determined
upon, the leaders in congress are
turning to the question of private
ownership. Recently there have been
indications that a private company
IS going ahead with the construction
of a cable without consultation with
this government. It can be said on
the best authority that no such move
ment viii be successful. The law Of
1cers of the government viii see that
no cable is built which is not under
the supervision and control of the
United States government.

UNNECESSARY SEVERITY.
National Live stock Association Says
Rigid Army Inspection CurtaiIs
Sale of Good Horses.

Chicago, Dec. AT Fridays ses-
sion of the National Live Stock con-
Vention a resolution of interest to
horse-raisers was adopted. 1t calls
for less rigid inspection of horses
intended for government use, espe-
cially in the army and suggests the
appointment of a committee of our
army men and eight horse breeders
to act as judges at shows where prizes
shall be given for horses best fitted
for service in the various branches of
the army. The unnecessary severity
of the government inspectors in Sc
lecting horses is shown in the fact
that England has bought 10000
horses and mules for use in South
Africa, while the United States hav-
ing advertised for $4,000 animals has
been able to get on7y 5000 head.
After a spirited contest between
the friends of Portland, Ore, and
Kansas City, No, the convention Sc
lected the latter city as the place for
the next convention. This convention
will begin the second Tuesday in
January, 1908.

REPORT TREATY FAvoRABLY.

Find Much to Criticize.

Washington, Dec. THE senate
committee on foreign relations Fri
day voted to report favorably the new
Hay-PauncefOte treaty providing for
the construction of an isthmian canal.
The cOmmitte was in session nearly
two hours and went over in detail the
provisions of the convention. No
votes were cast against it, but it was
criticised very sharply by Senators
Money and Bacon, who found in it
many of the objections which they
urged against the old treaty. They
took especial exception to the provi-
sion continuing in force the neutrality
provision of the ClaytOn-Bulwer
treaty and also made objection to
the clause specifically authorizing
the United States to police the canal
as placing a limitation upon the
power of this country to absolutely
control it.
