RULING ON PANAMA
 RAISES TARIFF ROW
DECISION TO BUY ABROAD RE sENTED BY PR0TECTIONIsTs.
Blow at High Tariff seen--Rresiden' wiil Support Policy of the Canal Managers, Says Walter Wellman.

Walter wellman's washington Special l to Chicago Record Herald.
 1 Something like unto a Shimose bombshell was thrown into the camp of the stand-patters and high tariffites when the Panama Canai executive committee decided. with the approval of Secretary Taft, to buy abroad not only ships. but machinery and mate- rial for the Panama Canal. This de- oision has been the sensation of the day in political circles. There Is mucn talk among the high protection apostles of the Republican party of appealing to President Roosevelt for a reversal of the decision. but there is little prospect that this will do them any good. The determination of the executive committee Ia under stood to have the approval of the President, as well as of the Secretary of War, and if the big wall builders do not like this blow at their favorite policy they will have to lump it.
 No one should understand that the determination of the executive com mittee Is to buy all the ships, ma chinery and materials in foreign coun- tries. Probably the great bulk of ali purchases will be made in the United States. But the decision of the com lmittee Is that l. win buy where 1t can buy cheapest. If 1t can get the lowest prices in the United states, 1t will purchase here; if foreign manu- lecturers and dealers underbid Amer ican sellers the contracts wIll go abroad.
 On the face of it this looks like nothing more than good business pol icy. But 1t does not please the high tariffites at all. They look upon 1t as rank heresy. They perceive, as every one perceives. that it raises the whole tariff question, and raises 1t In a man ner calculated to give far more com fort to Democrats and Independents and to tarin reformers than to those who have helped push up the walls and who have made exclusion of for eign trade in any form an article of party faith. It will be a long time | before the Panama commission, the administration and the country hears the last of the storm brewed by this | important decision.

For generations we have been teaching that 1t Is better to buy at home. even if we have to pay a little higher prices. because that is for the general good" said one member of Congress. That is the very essence of the protection doctrine. Yet here comes the government and says it is not willing to abide by the practice of the country. It will break down the rule to which 1t is at least moral- ly party. and will buy abroad what ever it can buy there cheaper than at home. In other words. you and can't go into the worlds markets and buy where we can buy cheapest. The tar if prevents us. But the government, having no duty to pay on what it im- ports into the isthmus, announces its intention to go into the worlds mark cts and save all the money it can. A fine example indeed for a government to set in a protection country! What are we coming to, anyway?
 One prominent high-tariff senator. expressing his amazement, said he would have to withhold comment until he had seen the official indorsement of Secretary Taft upon the commis- sion's action. He could hardly credit the statement that the commission proposed to purchase a considerable amount of supplies abroad, discrimi-

Fashionable New Gem.

It is long since anything new L
precious stones made bid for pop
ularity, says the Pail Mall Gazette.
but since it became known that
King Edward looked with favor on
the peridot the beautiful sage green
gem is beginning to have a vogue.
The peridot, the Arabic name for
"precious stone," has for many years
been found in Ural mountain quartz
and in the rocks of South America,
but it, has been reserved for the
khedive of Egypt to find the stone
in marketable quantity. The srone
is not prohibitive in price and goes
beautifully with almost anything
except sapphires. In settings OF
diamonds or pearls it is effective,
and it is likely to be priced for its
decorative value in the larger kinds
of ornaments.

Two Chronic CraEes.

has already spent $500 600 on the tan
bark without penetrating the outer GU

has spent another 100000 he will still

CAPT. JADwIN's PARTY.
Visited the Brszos River Thursday
and Made Inspection.

Capt. Jadwin and party, con-
sisting of Congressman Henry,
Mayor Jas. B. Baker of Waco and
others, were in Navasota Thursday
and went out TO the Brazos river to
make investigations. Returning,
II Is learned that the gentlemen
stated they were highly pleased
with the outlook for an early con-
summation Of the plans heretofore
outlined. Capt. Jadwin is said to
have stated that of the thirty.six
rivers he has had experience with
the Brazos stands third on the
list from a point Of accessibility.
In other words, ii is thought to be
a very easy matter to institute the
system of locks and dams, and In
his reports to the government
Can't. Jadwin will advise the con-
struction Of the first dam at some
point between the Falls and Old
Washington. The Captain is GER
tain that ten feet of water can be
maintained at the Falls, which
will be ample for all purposes.
Locks and dams are placed at 80
miles, usually, and such will be
the distance between them in this
instance. 1t is thought the work
will begin at no very distant day,
