TIE rARLEE connLssLoN PLAN.


The President, according TO our Washington
correspondent. intends to ask Congress to APP
point a tariff commission. which shall scientifi-
cally investigate and consider the question of
tariff revision and shall report the result of its
labors to the new Congress year hence. 1t
would be within the province and power of Con
gress TO decide whether or not to adopt this
PLAN as it would rest with the new Congress to
accept. modify or reject the report of the com
mission. Moreover, the vindication of the plan
if adopted, would depend upon the composition
and conduct of the commission though it is, of
course. to be assumed that these would be ap-
propriate and satisfactory. Upon the face of
the case. therefore it may be said that the
Presidents reported plan is logical and based
upon common sense principles.
The arrangement of tariff rates and SEIZED
uIes is or should be a distinctively scientific
work The general principles of the tariff may
be political. That is 70 say, it may he a politi
cal question whether the tariff shall be protec-
tive or non-protective in tendency. though even
thus the intelligent politician should base his
policy upon scientific principles. But when it has
been decided. as it now certainly and emphati-
caIly has been that the protective system shall he
maintained. it rests with the supporters Of that
system TO apply and TO adjust ii in a scientih-
cally correct manner. II is not a question of
politics. but Of facts and figures. To be sc1en-
tifically ascertained. whether the protection af-
forded by the tariff 10 any given industry is
adequate. inadequate or excessive Rates of
wages, cost of living, prices of material, the
state of trade and corresponding conditions in
competitive lands are among the factors in the
problem.
It is reasonable to suppose that these fac
tors can be dealt with and an accurate solu-
ton can be reached by a commission of experts.
than by members of Congress sitting at such
times as can be spared from the multiplicity Of
other legislative duties. The hearings before
WAYS and Means and Finance committees at
Washington have often been literally farcical,
and when finally the rates and schedules have
been thrashed over upon the floor of House
or Senate, as in the court Of last resort, the
spectacle has been one at which the judiciouS
might well grieve OF course, there will al
ways be the possibility that the report of the
tariff commission will thus be rethrashed If
remember Alright, the report Of the former
commission which resulted in the tariff of 1883,
did not escape such fate. Yet the whole
the result should be more satisfactory than the
procedure without a commission, for 1t will
surely save Congress much time which is ur-
gently needed for other work, and it will give
TO Congress an authoritative basis for action
such as cannot be altogether ignored

rivals make the most Of their opportunity
opportunity which we deliberately give them:
It was as we have said, predicted frequently
last winter that the refusal to deal justly ana
honorably with Cuba then would engender as
trust and make much harder all future negot-
atoms with that island Precisely that has
come to pass Nevertheless, as Mr. Beecher on
a notable occasi said with peculiar emphasis,
nevertheless. the negotiations must be effected
The anti-American spirit in Cuba must he over
come Relations between the two countries
must be put upon an exceptionally and eXcIu-
sively intimate basis. The policy Of threequar-
ters Of a century and the results OF costly
war must not be abandoned nor sacrificed. All
that is settled beyond dispute or question II
Cubans or Europeans or any one else imagine
that the United States is going to permit CUBA
TO be permanently aienated and made poAtl-
cally or commercially hostile State, the sooner
that delusiOn is abandoned the better it will be.
The work of establishing proper relations has
been too long neglected but it must be done. 1t
will be harder than il would have been. but it
must be done; and it will be done OF that fact
the United States and Cuba and all the world
may as we'll take notice.

The report of the Development OF a strong
anti-American spirit in Cuba will naturally give
rise in this country to varied emotions. There
viii be regret and there will be resentment
There may be some not altogether judicious
manifestations of anger. But whatever there
may or may not be, there should be no sur
prise There are few remarks less graceful
than II told you So" but there are also few
which might with more convincing and con
victing truth be made at this time. 1t seemed
inevitable last winter that what is an
nounced would come to pass. For then men at
Washington were openly refusing to treat Cuba
according to the dictates of honor and the I'M
mistakably implied pledges of this government
They were saying openly that they would not
admit Cuban goods to our markets on favorable
terms. They declared that they did not care
what became of Cuba, and that if the island
wanted TO prosper it would have to relinquish
its independence and be annexed to this Union.
Indeed they went so far as to initiate legisla-
ton designed practically TO dragon Cuba into
annexation against her will: and if it be said
that such men did not represent the President
or the people, and that Cubans ought to disre-
gard them and trust the President and the peo-
pie. the answer is that those men prevailed, de-
feating the President and defying the people.
Why should he surprised if Cuba develops
5n antl-Amerlcan. or at least a non American,
spirit:
There is no occasion for surprise. if even for
resentment either, at the discovery that other
countries have been making the most of the
situation for their own advantage The fact
has repeatedly been reported in these columns,
with official figures showing how rapidly Amer
lean trade with Cuba was diminishing and that
of certain European countries was increasing.
What would you? Cuba had to have the goods
and she was bound to get them wherever the
greatest trade inducements were offered TO her
Nor is there reasonable ground on which 10 COM
plain Of our successful rivals. Just because we
would not trade with Cuba was no reason why
they should not do so. Fifteen years ago Great
Britain had almost a monopoly of Cuban trade
Then the United States enacted the Mckinley
BILL and under its provisions drove Great Brit
ain out of the Cuban market and established
an American monopoly there. OF that there
was no complaint 1t was recognized as a per-
fectly legitimate thing to do. We could do it
again if we would. All that would be neces-
sary would be TO repeat what was done by Nc
Kinley and Harrison and Blaine But if we

RECENT VOLCANIC ACTIVITY.

AS fuller details concerning the outbreak OF
Santa Maria last month are received, the more
formidable does it appear to have been. Not
only vast areas given up to the cultivation of
coffee Guatemalas principal crop but also sew
eral towns have been buried in ashes. Accurate
indications of the loss of human life are still
lacking: But the victims are undoubtedly num-
bered by the hundred, and possibly by the thou
sand. If the deposit of dust and cinder was
gentle and gradual, escape would have been
comparatively easy, even though the popula-
ton was left temporarily homeless. On the
other hand, it is easy to conceive of showers
heavy and sudden enough to hamper flight
especially in darkness. Moreover additional
agents Of destruction were brought into play.
There is now little doubt that streams of lava
issued from the volcano, and these might have
set fire to some of the adjacent dwellings.
Santa Maria like Pelee, also emitted poisonous
gases in sufficient quantity to asphyxiate at
least few people. The death OF an ex-PresI-
dent Of the republic of Guatemala, General
Barillas, from this cause is announced a greater
mortality than has been suspected may yet
be revealed. Among the survivors great desti-
tuition prevails, and it may be necessary for the
outside world to extend help in order to relieve
them
In the mean time volcanic disturbances are
reported from other parts of the globe. StrOm-
bolts performance is not fresh outbreak, be-
cause 1t has for many years remained continu-
ously active. The display of energy has been a
modest one though. Stromboli is often cited
rs an illustration of the morbund volcano 1t
has been emitting clouds of steam illuminating
them at night with dull red glow. and produc
ing occasional rumbles that were as innocent as
stage thunder For several days past its
demonstrations have been much more violent
the pyrotechnical part of them being more i'm
pressive, while attendant earthquakes created
genuine and unusual alarm. About the erup-
tions in Samoa only little information is avail
able. 1t is not possible, for instance to fix the
time Of their beginning with precision nor esti-
mate the damage done. But it is obvious that
the safety valves opened in the West Indies last
spring have not been adequate TO restore the
earth's equilibrium. In number and severity

never fiery or frantic in politics. Sly and schem-

he is an ice trust ncarnate Whatever else he
may lose in politics, he never yet has lost his
self-control in a campaign.
What folly, then, for his Infatuated opponents
