Plan to Honor Gen. sieeI.

Admirers of the late Gen. Franz ST.
gel propose to ask the New York city
authorities to change the name of
Cedar Park, at One Hundred and Fiji
ty-second street and Mott avenue. to
Sigel park, to honor the memory of
the patriot and soldier. Gen. Sigel
was a resident of the Bronx for more
than a quarter of a century, and his
friends say that as he was the most
prominent veteran of the civil war
who lived in that part of the city it
would be appropriate to commemorate
his patriotic services in such sub
stantial way. Many public officials
and citizens of the Bronx favor the
plan.

Farmers Keen in Business

tombstone Bartlett, Hghtning-rod
agent, called on the prosecuting at
torney to-day and asked that warrants
be issued for the arrest of twelve
Atchison county farmers, says the
Nebraska State Journal. He says he
started out of Atchison a week ago
with a team of good horses and a
new spring wagon, but that during
the week he was swindled out of ev-
erything, in trading horses, and was
compelled to walk back to town. He
did no business, and lost all his
lightning rods. The prosecuting at
torney said that getting. the best of a
horse trade was no violation of law,
and Bartlett left for the east, saying
bank presidents were easier than
farmers.

Volume XIII. of the report of the
Industrial commission tabulates 416
replies received by the commission
bearing on the question of foreign
and domestic prices. The report
says: THE great majority of the
answers indicated that prices are no
lower abroad than they are for domes-
tic consumers, and considerable
number indicate that foreign prices
are higher" A few, however, state
that they sell portion of their goods
abroad lower than at home and the
reasons are as follows:
Cash payments and large pur
chases in the foreign trade, whereas
the domestic trade is based on credits
and small purchases.
The drawback or rebate of the
tariff on imported raw material OF
goods manufactured for export.
ITO overcome the tariff of other
countries.
ITO secure new markets
ITO hold a market against new
competitors.
ITO clear out surplus stock or to
prevent a shut down and increased
cost of production, by keeping mills
running and men employed.
ITO get rid of samples and out-of-
date goods.
because the expense of selling and
advertising is less abroad than at
home.''
These are the reasons attributed
by manufacturers of all countries for
sometimes selling a part of their
stock at a lower price abroad than
at home. 1t causes no injury to the
domestic consumers and gives added
employment and wages to ~laborers,
besides keeping the home market
firm and stable and preventing ruin
Gus competition in cutting prices.
There is another reason why some
American manufacturers sometimes
sell a portion of their goods at low
er price abroad, and perhaps the
chief reason. Most of our machinery
or articles produced by machinery are
covered by patents which are exclu-
sively controlled and operated in this
country. For example, take agricul-
tural implements. 1t can be shown
that where such articles are sold
more cheaply abroad than at home it
is because of patents. If not covered
by foreign patents it is obviously the
policy to sell in foreign countries at a
price that will discourage production
in those countries.
And yet of the manufacturers of
agricultural implements reporting to
the Industrial commission, all, with
only one exception, stated that prices
to foreign purchasers are either high
er or no lower than those for domes-
tic purchasers. Not one per cent of
our output is sold at a lower price
abroad and only for some special rea-
son connected with that particular
consignment.

TASK rs A HARD ONE
CONTROL OF CORPORATIONS A
DIFFICULT MATTER.
President Roosevelt Realizes The
Gravity of the Situation-Amend-
ment to the Constitution Necessary
to Effect Desired Results.

The president says: 81 believe
firm y that in the end there will have
to be an amendment to the constitu-
ton of the nation comforting addi-
tional power upon the federal govern
ment to deal with corporations To
get that will be a matter of difficulty
and a matter of time
The last sentence shows that the
president is aware of the fact that to
amend the constitution, even to reach
an end desired by a considerable
majority of the people, is no light
task. 1t will be necessary for the adj
vocates of the amendment the presi-
dent believes necessary to overcome
the resistance of corporate interests
which prefer state to federal rule; to
overcome the state pride which will
bid the states retain jurisdiction over
the corporations which are their own
creatures; and to reconcile conserva-
tive slow moving elements in the
community to a new departure-to a
greater Capitalization of the powers
of government. John Adams said of
the national constitution that it was
cxtorted from 1.-The grinding necessi-
ties of reluctant people," 1t may
require a similar pressure to extort
government the control over corpora
tions it is proposed to bestow upon it.
If congress were this year, through
a sudden impulse, to submit to the
states an amendment transferring
from them to the federal govern
ment the jurisdiction over corpora
tons the amendment would fall far
short of the necessary three-fourths
vote. There are states where no trust
has home and where trusts are
most unpopular which, Influenced by
the habits of thought of a century,
would refuse to give additional power
to the general government There
are states whose legislatures are SO
far subject to corporate influences
that they would refuse ratification
peremptorily. 1t would take some
thing in the nature of a revolution
to get the assent of states like New
York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
The general reason assigned for
nonconcurrence in the amendment at
this moment would be that the RENE
dies which congress can administer
with the constitution as it is have
not been given sufficient trial. This
is a reason which will appeal strong
ly to many. In all human probability
no amendment can be adopted until
all other measures have been tried
faithfully and their failure is beyond
dispute.
The president does not exaggerate
when he says it will be "a matter of
difficulty and a matter of time" to get
the constitutional amendment he de-
sires. Many difficulties will be en-
countered and much time will be
needed. Federal control of corpora
tions is not a thing of the immediate
future. Probably that is the view
President Roosevelt takes of the mat
ter.-Chicago Tribune.

A Better Reason Needed.

There ought to be some more
tangible reason for such a dangerous
expedient than the existence of q
sentiment in certain localities, now

ready to fight to finish any reduc-
ton on the things there produced. !"
