TARIFF TAX REDUCTION.

Another great conflict Is coming
soon in American politics. In fact,
it is very close at hand. On the one
side will be the benefciarie8 Of high
tariff taxation and their misguided
followers, and on the other those who
desire the general welfare and know
that it would be advanced by a very
material reduction of seabOard taxes.
The struggle is now beginning in the
Republican party. President ROOse-
welt i in favor of carrying out the
policy announced by the late Presi-
dent Mckinley in his famous Buffalo
speech that Of trade expansion as
we'll as territorial expansion. But it
is not at all likely that President
Roosevelt, Mr.. Babcock and ether
leaders in the new departure move
ment will be able to bring their party
to the support of tariff reform pol
icy. If they had only the real bene-
fciaries of the spOliatiOn system to
contend with, their task might not be
hopeless; because those who are act
ually enriched by sO-called protection
are comparatively few, while those
who bear its heavy burdens are many.
But there is very large class of vot-
ers who receive no benefit from tariff
taxation, but really believe in the re-
strictiye commercial policy of the Re
publican party. For more than a
generation they have, in effect, been
told by their party leaders and their
party newspapers that from that pol
icy all blessings flow; that it has en-
riched them; and that as compared
with it, the treasures of a rich, unde-
VelOped country, and the blessings of
n free government should count as
naught. What they have been long
and persistently taught-they now
firmly believe What is regarded by
the ablest political economists as the
nonsense of protection is no non
sense to them. 1t is their hope, if not
their salvation. From a sense of pa
triotic duty, as they see it, they will
stand in the way of any step being
taken toward commercial freedom;
and they are powerful enough to pre-
vent such a step being taken by the
administration party. They are to be
reckoned as most formidable allies of
the ship subsidy schemers and the
protected trust magnates, who will
strive their utmost to have and to
hold special legislative benefits for
themselves quite regardless of the
general welfare. In the last congress
protected interests were strong enough
to supplement the Dingley law with
laws eXacting duties upon goods com
ing into this country from territory
belonging to the United States; and it
is reasonable to suppose that they
will also dominate the ffty-seventh
congress.
While there is but little hope of the
tariff being reformed by its friends,
the tariff will be reformed neverthe-
less. The evils of the restrictive sys.
tenn, which fosters trusts and monopo
lies and burdens the people, are be
coming greater and more fagran
every day; and finally the intelligent
and patriotic American people will
revolt and throw it overheard. They
cannot do it too soon for the good Of
the whole country.

linger, of New Hampshire, who was
one OF the Presidents callers to-day,
not only opposes a revision OF the
tariff, but also any tariff concessions
to other countries through reciproc-
ity treaties. He is especially hostile
to any treaty looking to the reduc-
tion of duties ON Canadian imports.
"We sell three times as much to
Canada as the Dominion sells to us, 3"
said he to-day at the White House.
"Why should We make CONCESSIONS
In my opinion there will be no reci-
procity treaty with Canada. Iwas
in Toronto recently and heard Sir
Wilfred Laurier, the Canadian pre-
mier, say in a speech that Canada
was through with sending delegates

concessions. He said that ifnegotia.
tions were to be resumed we would
have to take the initiative.

BIG CROP OF PRUMES.
Last Years Crop Not Yet Disposed OF
and Growers Uneasy in Regard
TO the Situation,

California packers estimate the
amount of prunes of the crop OF 1900
now on hand at 1000 carloads. The
estimated crop of Santa Clara county
prunes this year is 100000 pounds,
which, together with the estimated
100000 pounds of the Italian vari-
ETY. produced by Oregon, Washington
and Idaho, constitute the stock to be
disposed of. So far this season
neither the commercial packers nor
the California cured freight associa.
tion has made any particular effort
to dispose of this seasons crop. All
feel inclined to get last years crop
out of the way first.
The growers are showing signs OF
uneasiness, but the fruit association
is confident of eventually finding a
market for the new crop at a good
figure. Prices remain the same. with
few buyers.
