WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 80, 1901.
It's becoming moro and more evil
dent every day chat there will be q bat
tie royal in the Republican party in
Congress this winter on the subject of
reciprocal trade arrangements with
foreign nations. Mr.. Roosevelt hns
declared In favor Of these, aud the
american Protective, Association
wnlcn practically controls the destinies
OF. all eastern Congressmen-has de-
clare. against them. Issue viii suuIl
that MIR. Roosevelt is weakening. Such
;%oIiI not DO expected from n study of
his record In the past. but it is worth
whlle to remember that when he de-
clared 50 .nreservedly for tho treaties,
ne had not felt the force of the OppOsi-
ton. The Tariff Association did not
consider that he, ms Vice President,
would have. anything to do with tho
highly improbable case that the Senate
should be tie, and had taken no stems
to influence him. Now that he has so
suddenly been elevated to SO powerful
q position, the Association is moving
heaven anu earth to convince him of
the inadvisabilityo of taking any action.
wait awhile" they say, "and study
declarations on the subject were not T.
positive but only tentative and he was
open to argument from our side. Do
You be the same" "Besides.n thew
add, '.it would be such pity to mn
tagOnize those who would hold the
strings of the purses that supply tho
republican campaign .funds-funds
that Will be 80 necessary in 1904" The
question may thus resolve itself into
whether MIR. Roosevelt intends to be
candidate three years hence; if he
does, the chances are that he will be
very chary in pushing reciprocity.
Secretary Wilson is trying to explain
away his fruit bounty giving proposi-
ton, but ia, finding great trouble in so
doing. The arrangement. as will be
remembered, is one whereby the Gov
crnment takes all the risks ON ship
the resulting. profits to the ship
pers. Thus, it practically amounts to
partnership in which one member of
the firnl niny loose but cannot make
any profit. One is reminded of the old
story OF the dissolution OF partnership
between Tom Jones and Bill Smith, in
which the former announced that "all
who owe the firm will setalc with me;
to Bill Smith" Nevertheless. SecreS,
tary Wilson denied ''in absolute and
unqualified terms that the agreement
can be considered in the nature of n
bounty He does not explain why il
Is anything else, but simply denies and
lets 1t go at that-which, after all, ia
about the wisest thing he could do in
