irving to Avert Defeat.

The fact has leaked out. probably by
design. that meeting took place at
the White House on the invitation Of
President Roosevelt, at which the
question of tariff revision was dis
cussed. Among the persons present
were Senator Eanna. Allison. Platt of
Connecticut, Spooner and Aldrich, and
Representatives Babcock, Hull and
Overstreet. No report of the discus
sion was given out, but all accounts
agree in saying that the question under
debate was not whether the Dingley
law needs revision-that was assumed
on ali hands-but at what time the
work of revision should be undertaken.
1t was agreed. also, that the revision
should be, in general, a reduction of
existing lates.-New York Evening
Post.

Gnnd Riddance.

There was never valid defense for
the purchase of Danish West Indies
island by the United States. The OBJ
jections to the purchase were grave.
The proposal implied traffic in hu-
man beings. The political allegiance
of the island was to be altered without
the consent of the governed. We need
nothing in the West Indies but har-
Dor accommodations. These we can
have at the ordinary commercial rate.
The volcanic character of the group,
tragically illustrated of late, consti-
tutes another objection to our acqui-
sition of realty in that quarter. That
there was ar attempt at colossal cor
ruption in tie proposed deal with Den
mark is beyond question. The propo-
nents of the immoral bargain have de-
sired to extend for year the time for
ratification of the Hay treaty to con-
summate the scandalous transaction.

the ratification period. The subject

His majesty, under ordinary conditions,

The news that something was wrong

If there is one thing more than an
other that certain classes of industrial
managers care less for than any other
it is that vague entity called public
opinion. Public opinion has. been
aroused to fever heat over the.*xac-

practical effect in reducing prices, what
ever else it may have accomplished. In
time, through expression at the polls, it
may make it's power felt but in the
meantime the price of meat-remains at
extraordinary rates. Public opinion
upon the anthracite dispute has been
largely against the operators because
of their refusal to arbitrate, but the at
