The Honorable Artillery Company Of
London claims to be the oldest armed
corps in the British service, under charter
from bluff King Hal. 1t was founded q
the Honorable Company Of Archers Of
the Artillerie Garden,s the said garden
being situated on what were then Ye Moor
fields, just outside the Moor Gate Of the
old wall Of the City of London, and where
the headquarters Of the regiment 10 still
situated in spite Of all the vast changes
in the surroundings.
In the early days of the American Colonies.
an o!fshoot Of the old corps was established
in Boston. Mass, by emigrant members. The
Boston association is the oldest organized
military corps in America and dates from
1887. A few years ago q representative
detachment from Boston visited London
at the invitation OF the Honorable Artillery
Company. and was royalty entertained
by the old corps at the Armory House.
The present visit of the Honorable Ar
tillery Company Of London is the first
occasion that a detachment of British
troops in the imposing present uniform
OF the Foot Guards has come to America
This uniform is that OF the infantry bat
talon OF the corps, substituting silver FOR
gold in the appointments. In addition to

The history Of this corps ia full Of inter

been intimately connected with English
history in England. For nearly $50 years.

Quelled by them, and in 1850 they rendered
special service in the Gordon riots.
The London company has elected only
one honorary member in its entire history
and that was Capt Barnard Turner, for
the spirited and active part he had taken
in suppressing the late dangerous riots-
the Gordon riots-in the metropolis.
The Boston company has elected only
two honorary members in its lifetime, the
late Prince Consort and the present King
Edward VII.
The Honorable Artillery Company has
twice done what no other regiment In the
world has ever even attempted. namely.
which really resulted in the formation Of
the British volunteer force. they paid into
the Bank of England the sum OF 81 900
to the credit Of the Commissioners OF the
Treasury for the purposes Of the defence
of the country. A little over q hundred
years later, during the late South African
war, they gave a sum OF Ell 900 to the Man.

Balfour Defends His Tariff Policy


We have before us the pamphlet in
which the head of the British Govern
ment made known to his colleagues, just
before the recent Cabinet crisis, his req
sons for departing from the free trade
principles which for the last half century
have been accepted in Great Britain
We need not point out that Americans
have more than an academic interest
in the views of the Prime Minister, who
may possibly succeed in persuading his
countrymen to enter upon a course the
eventual outcome of which may be the
imposition of duties on the food products
exported from the United States to Great
Britain.
We should say at once that in this
pamphlet Mr.. BALFoUR does not commit
himself to the adoption of tariff framed
for the exclusive purpose Of giving a
preference to the Colonies. He intimates
that it might have been wall for the
British Empire, il some sixty years ago
it had applied the principle of interstate
FREQ trade which obtains in the United
States; but in this pamphlet, at least,
he seems to recognize that the oppor-
tunity for establishing such relations be-
tween the mother country and her trans
marine dependencies has passed away,
now that most Of the self-governing Col
onies have invested large amounts Of
capital in protected manufactures. These
Economic Notes on Insular Free Trade"
20 no further than to point out, what is
unquestionably true, that between 1880
and 1902 England's exports to the prin-
cipal protected foreign countries lex
elusive Of coal, machinery and ships)
fell from Hs7,l24,OOO to e7s,887 900, the
percentage of the whole export trade
that went to those countries having
dropped in the interval from 42.4 per
cent. to 33.2 per cent. Mr.. BALroUR goes
on to suggest a palliative Of this shrink
age. This he would find in such fiscal
legislation as should enable the British
Government to negotiate reciprocity
treaties with foreign Powers, treaties
whereby the products Of the other party
to the contract might continue to be adj
mitted to Great Britain duty free, pro-
vided some abatement Of the present
high duties should be conceded TO British
commodities in the foreign market. How
one-sided the present arrangements are
will be appreciated when we direct at
tention to the figures Of the Board of
Trade, which estimates the ad valorem
equivalent Of the duties levied on Great
Brtain's principal exports to be: in the
case Of RuFsia, 1870 per cent; Of the United
States, 7,kser cent; Of Austria-Hungary.

The inefficient police service at the
Tammany city convention on Thursday
evening amounted to public scandal.
Amply forewarned OF the general inter-
est in this most dramatic political gath
ering, knowing that great throng Of
citizens would gather in the vicinity OF
the convention hall, the Police Depart
ment made no adequate preparations to
cope with the situation it must have fore
seen. It's officers were improperly dis
posed about the building. No compre-
hensive plan for keeping order in the
crowd was adopted. The police, instead
OF lessening the confusion incident to
the gathering, contributed to increase

Scores Of delegates to the convention
were excluded from the building in which

NEW YORK. Oct 2,
To THE EDITOR OF The SUN-Sir: What is
fusion? Fusion is confusion,
Why did circuit and Fornes accept the in
dorsement from Tammany? Because they
wanted to make their election doubly sure
Why does Tammany want to indorse them
Because Tammany wanted to win them over.
and at the same time make a farce OF the
fusion ticket.
Does Tammany resort to such tacticsf
Sure. They won Shepard over and gave him
the nomination for the Mayoralty. They
won Coler over and gave him the Guberna-
toriai nomination.
Why don't the Republicans nominate a
straight ticket? Because the Citizens Union
and the so-called independent Democrats
won't let them.
Why won't they let them? Because they
want an opportunity to share in the patronage.
SO there are grafters in the Citizens Union.
too? Indeed there are.

rowsd itself down to fight bet ween the rival
candidates. No matter which wins, Tam
many holds the offices,
IsTammany Hall stronger or weaker than Il
was two years ago? 1t IL much stronger
Why' Because 1t has lost little patron ge
and gained many recruits from the disap D.
pointed oiticeseekers.
Is there any stability in u non-partisan
administration? None whatever
Why? Because State and national politics
cannot be eliminated from city affairs In
the city administration there will always be
some ambitious men who will use their good
offices to further their own ends. In the
second place. there can be no harmony in an
administration in which the majority of the
officehoders are affiliated with a different
political party.
How many Tammany officeholders are
there in the present administration? About
sc, 900.
Where do the Republicans come in? They
don't come in. They stay out
