Mr.. Palmer's Compliment.

Mr.. Warnock and Mr.. Palmer resemble
each other somewhat-or at least people
who know them but casually think SO.
The former halls from Ohio and the lat
ter from Pennsylvania, and both are serv-
ing their first terms in Congress. Not in
frequently the Speaker is confused when
one of them rises, and sometimes recog-
nizes Mr.. Palmer as the gentleman from
Ohio and sometimes Mr.. Warnock as
the gentleman from Pennsylvania.
Several days ago Mr.. Warnock delivered
vigorous speech in the House. which
Just struck the fancy of Mr.. Palmer.
When the Ohio member had concluded the
member from Pennsylvania walked around
to the formers desk, and by the way of
congra tulation said:
Say. warnock, have been mistaken
for you a good many times. and I've been
inclined to resent IL, but after hearing
that speech I'm willing that anybody
should think my name is Warnock. In
fact. I'd like tc have the editor of the
Record think SC just long enough TO put
my name over ii when it is printed, that
| might send 1t out TO my constituents"

WILL NOT REFORM TARIFF.
The Trusts sri11 In the saddle Rid
ing the Republican Party to
Its undoing.

1t Is practically settled that there
will be no tariff tinkering by the
present congress. The organization
Of the present representatives of the
people is in the hands of the protcc-
tionists, who are of the Hanna stand
pat" stripe. The trusts are therefore
secure in their extortion, at least un-
Ill 1904. and can continue to sell their
products to foreigners for from 20 to
80 per cent. less than they compel
the people of the United States to
pay. How long the voters will con-
tinue to condone this discrimination
against themselves is a question that
is postponed for two more years. AZ
the presidential election in 1904 they
will have another opportunity to de-
eide the question, and with further
enlightenment they may reverse
heir decision of this year.
The trust question and reciprocity
are forced 10 the front by the presl-
dent in his annual message to cor
cress with the evident intention OF
inspiring the people with hope of re-
lief and relieving Vie republican
party of the more important tariff
question. on which it is so sorely di-
sided.

means exhausted the power to pun

gives him. especially the criminal

ously cripple them. the outlook for

IL he does not look out, while making

TIN WORKERS WAGES.
ret industry Of Protectioaists Fails
to Keep Up the Fay for
Labor.

The tin plate industry is one OF the
special pets of the protectionists. They
claim 10 have created that industry
by the Mckinley tariff, ignoring tho
fact that it grew and prospered moro
than any other industry under the So
called Wilson tariff, which was about
half the Mckinley tariff, says the Chi
cago Chronicle.
They hasten to restore the Nc Kinley
rate in the Dingley law upon the false
pretense that the Wilson tariff was
destroying the industry.
The claim for the tin plate duty
was the usual one that il was all for the
benefit of labor. The duty was giving
employment Mt high wages to Ameri-
can labor. 1t happens that most Of
the labor at first was imported under
an exception to the general provisions
OF the contract labor law. But let that
pass.
The point Of interest just now is that
the tinworkers have just agreed to
accept a general reduction of three
per cent. in wages. Most workers in
tin factories have never received
princely wages, and now they have
been brought to agree to reduction.
The tariff does not serve them.
The reduction is the end of dis
cussion which has been in progress for
five OF six months. The employers
wanted the men to submit to a reduc-
ton OF rs per cent. on the orders to
fill the drawback trade" and the gen.
eral reduction Of three per cent. 10
the counter-proposition of the men.
What is meant by the drawback
trade" is this: American exporters
of canned goods can import the tin.
paying the duty. and get a drawback
equal to the duty when they export
the cans containing the goods. To
induce the exporters to buy American
cans the manufacturers have to make
special prices for that trade. and to
enable them TO do this without loss
the workers were asked to submit TO
reduction.
American consumers have to pay
high prices for their canned goods to
enable the manufacturers 10 pay rea-
sonable wages. and the men have TO
submit to reduction to secure the ex-
port trade. That is how protection
works both ways.

sses~d Reforms VIII Hardly Receive
Due Attention by the Party
In Power.

The last session of the Fifty-sev
enth congress having begun. the gen
eral expectation that IL will be un
fruitful OF important legislation il
not likely To be disappointed, says
the New York World.
The regulation OF trusts with a
view to suppressing monopolies is the
subject of first Importance. In his
message a year ago and in his
speeches on the stump last summer,
President Roosevelt insisted upon the
need of a constitutional amendment
20 confer upon congress the power TO
zeal adequately with monopolies.
But in his speech at Philadelphia on
November %. he said:
IT is idle to tell the people that we have
not the power 10 solve such a problem as
that Of exercising adequate supervision
over the graf Industrial combinations OF
.o-cay. We have the power and we shall
ind out the way"
AND IN the same speech he strongly
ndorsed the remedy proposed by At
,orney General Knox, which is, in sub
stance, enforced publicity for the al
fairs of all corporations doing an in
serstate business, for which he con
tended there is already ample author
ty or law. Whether "A stringent law
of this character can get by the trust
agents in the senate is very doubtful.
What effect mere publicity would
have in curing the worst evil of the
trusts = their tariff-chartered privi-
!ege Of putting monopoly prices upon
their products-nobody has yet at
tempted to explain.
The subject Of next Importance is
he revision Of the tariff and the re-
ated question of reciprocity 1t rs
evident from all that the president
has said that he is not In favor Of at
tempting a revision of even the most
oppressive tariff schedules-like those
on coal, meat, lumber and hides-a.
this time. The most that he is likely
to do is to recommend a tariff COM
mission to examine and report'-a
favorite method of sidetrackinr the
issue.
But even IL the president were an
advocate OF necessary and reasonable
tariff reform there would not be the
slightest chance of securing action by
this congress. The speaker. the
chairman of the ways and mea rs
and nearly all the infiuen-
tial members of the majority have
expressed themselves since the cleo
tons as opposed even to taking the
subject up at this session. They al
lege lack of time-though they once
passed in three days bill imposing |
more than Sl00.000.000 of internal |
revenue taxes, and it is beyond ques-
ton that the majority can pass in |
short order under its ironclad rules |
any bill which il decided to put
through. Ii is the will. not the time
hat is lacking. Yet even If the house
we're to pass measure of relief Il
would be killed in the scnat, Every
republican Of influence in tn. upper
iouse is inflexIbly opposed to any
ariff changes.
So that the main work of the ses-
ion Is likely TO be the passing Of the
appropriation bills. and perhaps the

ty treaty with Cuba-though even
his is doubtful. Needed reforms
