thing in its limited sphere, but it can
not take the place, however improved
and liberalized, of fair, equal, up-to
date tariff act. an act such as the
Republican party has pledged itself to
pass, one embodying the protective
principle without any abuse or invita-
ton to extortion and monopoly. The
people expect a repeal or reduction of
duties wherever experience has dem
cnstrated that neither proper protec-
ton nor revenue is now subserved.
Further, too much emphasis canno
be laid on the need and wisdom of
prompt action. Time is an essential
element in task. Nothing, of course.
can be done during the coming short
session, but. on the other hand, to
postpone revision until the first regular
session of the new congress is to ignore
the plain teaching of recent history
and court disaster. If the Republican
party means to keep it's public-and
still more its pr:vate-promise to over
haul the Dingley act, it must attack
the problem at the earliest oppor-
tunity, which means that an extra ses-
sion must be called either in the spring
or early in the fall.
A tariff enacted at such session will
have d reasonably fair trial between
the date of it's taking effect aud the
next congressional election. In the
absence of fair trial the judgment is
certain to be adverse, since every re-
vision involves some business disloca-
ton, while the virtues and benefits of
ne w law do not make themselves felt
till after a considerable interval of re-
adjustment. What happened in the
case Of the Mckinley act must inevita-
bly, happen every time tariff that has
not been properly tested is submitted
to the people.
In the interest of the party itself,
then, to say nothing about the con-
sumers and producers entitled to relief
the necessary revision should be en-
tered upon without any avoidable
delay.

sor.
"Gambling. 1t is the great occupa-
ton of many if not most of US, and
the average college graduate is apt
to take it up in some form or other
in spite of all the warning he may
receive. Therefore, why not train him

Why not have, say, lectures on how
to play poker, on how to play the
races, on how to speculate in stocks.
and SO on? If you could have these
subjects properly handled you might
turn out corps of experts who would

lie is for. 1t is simply question of

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent
Washington, Nov. "a.

w aSnlngLOn, NOV. a.
Three public addresses by the presi-
dent, in this city. within four days, is
a remarkable and unusual record, and
has given all WHO wish to hear him an
opportunity for doing so. 1t is true
the general public was excluded from
the grounds of the War college when
the statue of Frederick the Great was
unveiled, but enough people from hig h
government circles were invited to be
present to fill the reserved seats and
make crowd. The display of equi-
pages, accountermerts , uniforms and
costumes was brilliant and beWildering
the rush OF troops, cavalry and artil-
lery, almost took ones breath away;
while the roar of cannon. the Drawing
of brass bands, and the huzzing of
the troops outside of the gates gave a
coloring to the event somewhat unique

The Chicago Record Herald in dis

It cannot be too arnestly impressed

will meet the needs and wishes Of the
overwhelming majority of the people.
