would have shot the offender dead If
he had not been restrained by his

Mr.. Cages Good work.

With Secretary Gage. we rejoice
that the Treasury of the United
States is in superb condition. In view
of his formal resignation from the
post he has so ably filed it must be
personally gratifying to the financial
chief of the Government to be able
to make report that the calendar
year shows SI00,o00.000 surplus.
Results are the best proof of a
mans ability. While Mr.. Gage has
been assisted by natural causes and
by American enterprise, there is a
large share of credit due him for the
condition of the exchequer.
The Secretary of the Treasury has
been ON guard during Il particularly
trying period. lie has stood firm
when the siNteen-to-one enthusiast
sought to overturn rational policy
by spectacular sophistries. Undis-
turbed by the clamors of ignorance
and the shouts of the financial
1heorist, he has conducted the none
tary bureau of the nation with con-
servatism and conspicuous success
Mr.. Gage can receive no stronger
tribute to his steadfastness and his
patriotism than the repetition of his
own words:
The Treasury is in a condition of
uneNamplcd strength"

Unless Senator Morgan can secure the
right of way for his Nicaragua Canal bill
it is more than likely that the Philippine
tariff bill will be the first important
measure to be taken up by the Senate
when it recouyeEes. sst sia
1t is remarked as a peculiar circum-
stance that this bill, which. in the main,
s a revenue measure. was referred TO the
Philippines Committee of the Senate. In
mittee on Ways and Means, and not from
The Committee on Insular Affairs. The
usual course OF procedure would have
carried it to the Finance Committee of
ihe Senate. but instead it was referred
20 the Philippines Committee. of which
Senator Lodge is chairman.
Prominent Senators express their sur
prise at this, and the more strongly be-
cause the reference was made with the
consent of Senator Aldrieh, chairman of
the Finance Committee, it being well un-
derstood that committee chairmen are. as
rule. earnest in guarding the jurisdie
tion of their respective committees.
Had the question of jurisdiction been
raised there can be no. doubt that the
bill would have gone to the Finance
Committee. The country at large is fully
as much interested in the subject Inattei
as are the Philippines. and the bill. al
though it contains one or two other fea-
lures. is essentially one dealing with the
question Of revenues. The jurisdiction Of
the Philippines Committee in the view OF
avta lie MI IN
matters which mainly concern the islands
and which do not directly affect the reve-
nue3 and the finances Of the United
States.
But the fact remains that the bill was
referred to the Philippines Committee.
and there is some wGnderment thereat.
1t IS surmised that possibly this refer
ence was made upon the superstition that
the bill would receive more favorable
consideration at the hands of Senator
Lodges committee than in Senator Aid
rich's and emerge with fewer important
changes. The suggestion is also made
that this action may have been taken
with a view of emphasizing the fact that
there is sharp line OF demareatiOn be-
tween the Philippines and the portion
OF the United States which the Co1stitu-
tion fully covers.
All of this. however. is merely curious
comment, and is not to be taken as an
intimation that the bill Will be blocked
in it's passage through the Senate. 1t
seems quite certain that the debate in
that body viii be much fuller and more
elaborate than the one which preceded
the passage OF the measure through the
House Under the present rules of par
procedure ii can scarcely be
otherwise. But there is no reason to sup
pose that the opposition will go beyond
the limits of legitimate debate Pres
ent indications are that the bill will
pass the Senate at a reasonably early
date. although possibly with amendments.
which will involve further action by the
House.

perfect political machines in Inc his

tenacity, but an incident Of the last

the fact That the tiger-boss has los.
