EneLAnD's DEFIANCE OF ESPECIAL INTERESTS

1t is positively refreshing these times to find rep
resentave government that dares do what is thought
to be best for the nation and necessary for the gov
eminent in the face of the strongest protests of pow
erful special interests. This is what the British par
lament has DONE however in imposing export tax
of a shilling ton coal
England has been supplying the greater portion of
the world with coal Coal is of the leading export
commodities of the kingdom The coal companies are
among the richest and most powerful in Great Britain
They have strenuousy resisted the imposition of this
export tax They have conended that it would put it
within the power of Englands commercial rivals and
especially the United States to take the coal trade
away from the British They have even threatened
the government with general strike that would par
alyze British industries. But all to no avail The
house Of commons by than hundred ma
jority has sustained the governments purpose.
Contrast this action with that of the American gov
ornmont and the American congress Here we have
seen special interests absolutely debating the policies
of the government. The sugar trust and the tobacco
trust forced the president to abandon his plain duty
toward Porto Rico and prevailed upon congress put
tariff Porto Rican imports to this country now
the country of the Porto Ricans Latterly we have
seen a special interest this sugar trust leading
this government into a tariff with Russia. hurtful
to general interests but enabling the trust to save
d few thousands in profits
There has not been a tariff schedule adopted that
has not been largely dictated by special interests
many of them not near important us, or powerful
the coal interest is in England
The contrast ought to be object lesson to the
American people
We need not go into the merits or domerits of the
governments action in England. We see that mon
archy as it is with supposedly strong influence ex-
erted by titled orders and wealthy classes yet the
government dares to be independent in it's action and
to compel the richest and strongest private interests to
contribute to the revenues of the kingdom Here there
