SATURDAY EVENING,

while dumping large lots abroad to
keep the industry active.
A large question opened lrere--the5
question OF the benefits rssultant from
the organization Of vast industrial
combinations as against the known
evils attendant upon them. Econo-
mists the world over are watching with
great interest this experiment. for 1t
is nothing but an experiment as yet.
and from its success or failure many
new theories relative to corporation
management and trust regulation may
arise. The average business man will
be content for the present with a
knowledge that there Is much good in
the situation. He, knows that II hard
times are to come again he may ex-
pect them when the steel industry goes
idle men fill the towns. companies go
into receivers hands and bad times
are upon the iron trade, then he may
look for that general depression which
unsettles credits everywhere and
makes all business bad This is en-
.tirely apart from the question of trust
initiation. Hence it is that men not
even remotely connected with the steel
trade, are watching the reports SO
closely. in their desire for that which
will help them In an effort to size up
the situation as it will be a year from
now. Recently there have been signs
that have led many to believe the
down turn had been started in steel.
and that increasing bad reports with
all the accompanying effect upon other
lines was to be the rule from now on.
But if the conservative policy Of the
management of the selling end of the
great steel corporation can prevent
decentralization in the industry, and
carry it safely over a trying period,
there be little fear of any general
business recession serious enough to
alarm a conservative business man.

Mr.. Maxwells idea that the next step
would be that OF direct appropriate
for irrigation. II the people OF Ari-9
iona and other states and territories
were practically denied ALI benefit
from the present irrigati law while
their neighbors were profiting from It,
they would bring great pressure to

for the repayment to the federal
treasury sof all sums spent. on such
works. fr. Maxwellsis Of the opinion
thatathe present irrigation law is only
the first step in the development Of the
true national irrigation policy. The.
most important projects can not be
handled by 1t because the fund is In
sufficient. It will require s50,oo0s0O0
or more to finance some aof the
feasible projects, which will add two
or three million acres to the realm of

for the McCumber bill as a means Of

Is He the Democratic Moses


Has the democratic. party foundsits
long-needed leader? Has it.in john
Sharp Williams. of Mississippi, found
a statesman of the type the south
used to produce long age? . (. 81, 1T.
There are not lacking those who
think SO. ss5<zS me- -
Our washington correspondent yes=
terday presented an exceedingly inter
esting outline of Mr.. Williams ideas
and plans for the regeneration of his
party. He has the courage and saga
city to accept it as a fact that the
American people are committed to the
policy of protection, and he proposes
evils of too much protection. He en-
beavers now to put the democratic
party forward as one which, proposes
to change the tariff in 7the~i Interests Of
the nation--not to destroy the system.
He will. use tariff reform as a means
of attacking monopolies which have,
their chief support iii an excessively
high tariff. Y. .s.ss
He will take up the republican, idea
of reciprocity and endeavor to galvan-s
ize it., He. will putt it, forward .as "a
very satisfactory means Of revising
the tariff for the benef1t Of the: Ameri-
can people. - st5xt 41E~Est yst,.
He promptly SWUNG the house
democrats into 4file for reciprocity
with Cuba, and he declares emphat-
ically for reciprocity with Canada, and
tho he is a southerner he is broad
enough to recognize that it is the most
important opportunity for the appli-
cation of the reciprocity principle.
He. refuses, to attack administration
programs because they are such; in
stead he accepts :or rejects them on
their. merits as national measures.
Here IS certainlX,ttle program of not
only a shrewd party leader. But of "a
great statesmen. It would be- rash,
| now to predict. that MIR. Williams is
ltequal to his program, or to, declare
that the south has at last given 1.-THE
nation leader, but certainly he Is
succeeding well in getting the appear
ance of craftsmanship: ~ 49,.
IF Mr.. Williams is as good as his
word, he will have the sincere good
wishes of all the patriotic people OF
I the country in his effort to turn the
democratic party into a strong; patri-
otto, !, welI-balarced political party
which will gain the confidence Of the
business interests of the country while
keeping in mind the welfare. OF the
masses. Nothing better could happen
to the republican party and the coun-
try than the rehabilitation Of THE, dem
ocratic party. A great country forced
to conlnit itself TO one political party
because there is no choice, IS taking q
hazardous course. !, & I'd. 5z;;... .yzy
The disregard Of the republican
leaders for public opinion as devel-
oped on the tariff question in the last
two or three years and the;cynical dis
dain of party promises astto reeipro-
city are the fruits of unrestrained
power arising from the absence of q
worthy opposition party. as
i Mr.. Williams has a great opportun.
fly. The country hopes he is the mar
for the opportunity. 81.
