1t is announced on what is declared to be

1t is announced on what is declared to be
good authority that the managers of the
United States Steel Corporation are in
favor of a cut in the duty on steel and its
products, and that the President and the
senators who met him at Oyster Bay were
Informed of the attitude of these mana
gers toward the tariff. Whether or not this
is true it is not difficult to find basis of
probability for such a sentiment on the
part of the steel trust managers. That
corporation is In a position TO produce
steel at lower figure than most of it's
competitors. There is reason to believe that
the trust can compete with European COM
petitors on equal terms. 1t certainly can
If it shall reduce wages; but there are
hundreds of smaller manufacturers of iron
and steel who cannot stand free competi-
ton. These would be crippled and per-
haps compelled to go into the trust. In
an article in the Trusts Book" recently
issued, the greatest promoter, Mr.. Flint
declared that when all the great manufac-
turing interests were formed into trusts
the saving in expenses would be so great
that a protective tariff would not be
necessary. much lower duty on steel and
its products might drive all of the pro-
ducers into the trust. The same thing be-
ing done in Great Britain and Germany,
the conditions would be ripe for an inter-
national steel trust after the manner of
the international tobacco trust

Why Morgan Dislikes Roosevelt.

American.
j. Pierpont Morgan's announcement that
he will try to defeat President Roosevelt
was due TO an old feud, and not. as gen.
orally believed. to Mr.. Morgan's entire dis
approval OF Mr.. Roosevelt's antitrust ut
terances.
When President Roosevelt was Governor
of New York the bill taxing franchises was
suggestion. The whole power OF the cor
porations in New York city was opposed to
the measure, and when IL seemed probable
n would become a law Morgan made a per-
sonal appeal 10 Governor Roosevelt either
to veto IL when IL passed or to prevent its
passage.
Mr. Roosevelt paid no more attention 10

superintendent Maxwell. of the public
schools. has made what appears to be
very timely suggestion for the relief of the
overcrowded schools. The suggestion was
submitted 10 the Board of Education this
afternoon. DR.. Maxwells idea is that the
recreation piers could be Enclosed In glass
and apparatus for heating introduced, and
then that they could be used for schools
He mentions Several OF these piers as sit
uated in congested districts where the
schools are so crowded that thousands of
children are on halliday instruction The
piers, he says, are little used for recreation
purposes during the time OF the year they
would be needed for schools.

The nomination of Mr.. Coler by the New
York Democratic State convention is one
that does not meet the appreciation of
the Democratic party. The Brooklyn Eagle
an independent Democratic paper, appealed
to the convention nearly every day for
more than a week to nominate man who
might be regarded as the equal of Governor
Odell. 1t urged the nomination of Judge
Parker or some other man than Mr.. Coler.
1t appealed to Boss McLauglin, who
went to Saratoga to help Mr.. Coler. not
to break with his trusted ieutenants in
Kings county who are hostile to him. Mr..
Coler, as controller of New York city,
achieved some reputation for opposing the
Croker leaders and wrote articles for the
magazines opposing rings. He was Mr..
Hills candidate for Governor two years
ago. but was beaten in the convention. He
was subsequently jealous aspirant for
Tammany's nomination for mayor, which
went to Mr.. Shepard. He supported Tam
many's ticket in a conspicuous manner.
He is ambitious man who was about
the only active candidate for the nominal
ton which he secured at Saratoga. The
New York Times says the fact that he
has promised to raise a campaign fund of
100000 made him popular. Mr.. Coler is
openly alleged to be largely engaged in
promoting trusts, and is the president of
one. This may be all right for a Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor in New York,
but the Republican convention set aside
aspirant for Lieutenant Governor be-
cause he is engaged in promoting trusts
by selling their securities. Republicans in
New York are pleased with the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Coler.

The Louisville Courier-Journal says that
four cows have died in that city from
anthrax since last Monday. Anthrax is
one of the most fatal of animal diseases,
and very contagious and hard to control
Four cows which had been exposed to the
disease In Louisville were sold in New Al
tined there. AS anthrax attacks human
beings as well as animals there is double
reason why the health authorities Of this
State should watch the southern border.

No Privacy Mt the white House.

Woman's Home Companion.
The ground-glass window panes OF the
White House kitchen are a recent innova-
ton. One morning Senator Hanna came
upstairs to Mr.. McKinley's ONCE. and dur
ing his stay there said: "well, Mr.. Presi-
dent. you are going to have an Irish stew
for lunch to-day" or course. the chief ex-
ecutive was surprised that the senator
should be so well informed and asked him
how he knew.
"Oh, my authority IL first hand" he re-
piled "As came In / saw a party OF sight
seers very much interested in what was
going on down in the kitchen. so / strolied
over TO see what il was entertained them.
and found that IL was the cook making an
Irish stew She did IL well; I've no doubt
that Il will be good" he added loosely.
This gave Mr.. Mckinley a new idea, and
he asked Colonel Bingham IL he dad not
little more secluded. The ground glass
panes were the result

In an interview with the Chicago Tribune

Enquirer, and a longtime Democratic
leader, in the most virulent manner He
declares that Mclean must be thrown

view Mr.. Johnson denounced Mr.. Mclean
as "a coward and a robber." The En-
quirer copies the interview without COM

on the editorial page the Enquirer laments
that the only State among the larger States
of the North which has Endorsed the Kan
sas City platform is Ohio. and this 1t has

State convention. Mr.. Mclean is not say

warning experience Of the past II should
to do so will be inexcusable. Legislation
on the subject should not be directed
against any class nor discriminate for or
against capital or labor. but II should pro-
vide a means OF preventing the Interrupt
ton of an industry so essential 10 the pub
lie welfare.
AS usual the Constitution will be cited as
a bar to any remedial legislation. but right
ly construed il is not. The Constitution
gives Congress exclusive power to regulate
commerce between the States. The anthra-
cite coal trade is such commerce. and rail-
roads which engage in it are thereby
brought within the constitutional sphere or
congressional action and government con-
troll. The Constitution fixes no limit to the
regulation which Congress may exercise
over interstate commerce. II may regulate
such commerce to the fullest extent and in
the slightest detail. The present interstate
commerce law is but a first step in the
exercise of constitutional power in that d.
rection, and Congress should take as many
more steps as may be necessary to safe
guard the public welfare against the greed
of capital, the demands of labor or the
clashing of individual interests of any kind.
The common veal is above all other con-
siderations. and Congress should take care
that it is safeguarded from injury. An
other session of Congress should not be
allowed to pass without bringing every coal
road in the United States that does an
interstate business under the operation of
law that will prevent a recurrence of the
present situation.
