A Revisionist Victory.
Minneapolis Journal. ]

From such viewpoint, it seems 10
us that the Chicago tariff plank is q
victory for the revisionists of the mid
die west. 1t might have gone further
and adopted the phraseology of the
Iowa Idea" but that would have
caused trouble in the convention and
would have chilled the ardor of east
ern republicans in the campaign. The
plank got as close to the Iowa Idea
as was advisable, and wound up by
referring the entire question to a
president, who, IL elected in Novem-
Der, will, it is believed, pave the way
to revision at an early date.
This victory of the revisionfsts at
Chicago-for such we consider It
was the direct result of the agitation
which has been going on in Iowa. Min
nesota, Wisconsin. the pakotas, and
in other middle-west states for sew
eral years. In Iowa that agitation
took form in the policy adopted by
Governor Cummins, and in Minnesota
reciprocity was the vehicle of ex-
ploitation. Governor Cumnlins was
discredited by the "standpatters" OF
his own state, and reciprocity in Min
nesota did not fare much better, but
the republicans in both states who
advocated these advanced ideas may
well congratulate themselves on the
more substantial and significant re-
suits secured in Chicago. So far as
the republican national platform
shows any changes in its tariff plank
from tariff planks in platforms of
former years, they are changes looking
towards revision.

NEW IMMIGRATION LAWS NEEDED.

The tidal wave OF immigration into
the United States stimulated by the

OUTSIDE POINT OF VIEW
Consistency?

Some time ago a young writer APP
piled to Mr.. Hearst for employment on
his New York newspaper. and was en-
gagged to fill a position which would
become vacant at the end of a week,
but in the interval the fact came to
the attention of university profess
sor who had always taken an interest
in his advancement.
Il am sorry said the good man,
that you should have chosen that
particular school of journalism for
your professional start" And he pro-
ceeded to descant upon the RESPONSE
bility a Journalist owed to society, the
influence of one educated youths ex-
ample upon others of his class, the tone
writer inevitably took from the char
acter of the journals he worked for,
etc. And your untarnished sense of
self-respect, my young friend" he con-
Guided, will be worth more to you,
when you reach my time of life than
all the salaries an unprincipled em-
ployer can pour into your purse"
So impressed was the neophyte with
this lecture in morals that he called
upon Mr.. Hearst next morning and
announced that he had changed his
mind about accepting the proffered po-
sition. The editor scanned his face
shrewdly. and then inquired the reason.
After much hesitancy the young man
told him the whole story, and started
to leave.
All" said Mr. Hearst. BE seated a
moment, please" And turning to his
secretary he added Write letter
at once to Professor Y. Y, present my
compliments, and say that / should be
pleased to receive from him IA signed
article of five hundred woI-ds-subject
and treatment to be of his own choos-
ing-for the editorial page of next sun
days paper. Inclose check for $3.50"
Now" he remarked with cynical
smile, as he babe his caller good by,
you can see for yourself what comes
of that
He did. The Sunday issue contained
signed article. which gave the paper
the reflection of good mans fame,
and spread the influence of his example
among other university professors, and
did what to his elf-respect-all at
the net rate Of fifty cents per word!

or given as cold fact that does show
it most plainly, this stands out, that
today the theoretical attitude of the
professor and his pratical nigation of
his theories, are both identical with
that of the American public. Here's
the situation. There is n general ad-
mission that Hearst's papers are bad,
this referring to all of them, whether
published in New York, Chicago, Or
San Francisco. They everywhere cater
to prejudice, class feeling, vulgaritY
and sensationalism. They lack patriot

4 SURPLUS, NOT A DEFICIT.

instead or treasury deficit OF $41,-
352, 1926 as apparently indicated at the
close OF the fiscal year June so, the
New York Tribune points out that
three items OF expenditure, aggregating
S64, 100000, should be deducted from the
debit sheet to strike true balance be-
tween the years ordinary income and
ordinary outlay. Subtracting $4,000
600, paid to the French Panama Canal
Company for Its rights, franchises and
property in Panama. $10.o00.O00 paid to
the Republic of Panama for the canal
strip and $4,000 loaned to the Lou
isiana Purchase exposition, the year
really ends with favorable balance of
$13,247.675. This surplus is only $752.-
326 short. of the surplus for the year
predicted In December last by the
treasury department. The June re-
ceipts gave a surplus of nearly eleven
millions and demonstrated the ability
OF the government to pay its expenses
out OF It's receipts without the necessity
OF borrowing.
The fiscal year Just ended was lean
year for the treasury, compared with
the years Immediately preceding. For
I902-03 the surplus was $52,T10.s35, and
the SURPRISES in 10000 and 10000
ran well up toward s1oo.0o0,00o. But
congress twice reduced taxation to
check these huge accumulations. and
the full effect Of the last reduction was
felt for the first time in last years In
come For the year the total receipts
were $514,lS6,745, against s55S,SS7.525
In l902-03. This years expenditures
Including the extraordinary items for
canal payments and the Louisiana
Purchase exposition loan-were $685.
6ss,o71, against $500. 17S,5so in 1so2-03.
Excluding extraordinary demands the
treasury spent 939.071-nearly
S22, Ooo,0 600 more than it spent year
ago. This excess went entirely to the
construction and maintenance of the
navy. This year $102.757,073 was de-
voted to naval expenditure. Last year
the sum allotted to the navy was $751;
6ss, so2.
For the new year Secretary Shaw es-
tamated in his report to congress last
December a deficit of s2s.ooo.ooo. But
that estimate was based on larger app
propriations than were approved by
congress at the last session. Congress
actually held the appropriations with
Ii the governments estimated rev
snues. Should Secretary Shaw's fore
casts hold good again. there will be no
deficit in 1s04-05. On the contrary,
shere should be a eurplus Of from So
10000 to- 100000.
