The speaker listened intently as
he always does listen to advice. But
trailing on the heels of the Massachu-
setts member came representative
from Illinois who also wanted to re-
wise the tariff. He started in the same

THE TARIFF PROBLEM.
REVISION AND ANTT-REVISION
SENTIMENTS Nv WASHINGTON.
Speaker Cannon between Two Fires
Question to be a Live One During
the Next Session of Congress.

It is rather amusing to those who
are on the inside of the political arena
in Washington to observe the manner
in which discussions of the tariff are
conducted throughout the country. In
an academic way the theories of the
tariff are talked over. But to the men
on whom the real work of revising the
tariff would devolve there are very diff
ferent considerations to influence them.
They openly declare that the tariff
ought to be revised, but they say the
danger to business interests would be
SO great that they fear undertaking it.
They insist that a struggle over the
schedules would last six months, and
that during that time the business in
terests would be suffering stagnation
that would afflict the country very
soreiy.
This view is secuted by the revision
lists as one that has no standing with
men who believe in doing things. They
claim that if such considerations are
to prevail there never could be re-
vision of the tariff.
So Easy To Revise.

of the passing of the years. The glory
of that splendid home was departing.

To the great credit of John Angus

refused absolutely to consider PROPOSE

and individuals to purchase the estate,
to be converted later into pleasure

vaudeville performance on that magni-
f1cent stretch of lawn, walters bearing
their burdens of food and drink

uproar of irreverent crowds.
And then came Miss Ann Pamela
Cunningham, of South Carolina She
visited Mount Vernon in 1853 and was
shocked and grieved at the fate in
store for the historic spot. She con-
ceived the plan of rousing the women
of her beloved southland to the true
state of affairs and enlIsting their co
operation in the raising of fund of
$500, 900, the price asked for the house,
outbuildings, wharfage, garden and
some two hundred acres of farmlands.

remembered that fifty years ago it took
no small amount of bravery for a
woman to inaugurate and carry on an
undertaking Of such magnitude. But
after five years of effort the whole Of
the 100000 was in hand. 1t was
found impracticable to conflne the
propaganda to the Southern States, 50
the North was invited to assist, which
she did In generous measure.

is having very little effect on them.
In fact the protectionists do not even
care to discuss that phase of the ques-
ton. A revision of the tariff with the
declared purpose to simply lower the
schedules they say would have the
same effect on the country that they
claim would follow an attack on
the tariff principles by the free-trad-
ers. They claim that merchants would
not buy goods when lower tariff rates
might still further reduce the price
they would have to pay. That condi-
tions lasting six months they fear
would upset all business conditions.
They say it might mean panic.
But they are likely to have their
views very forcibly contested by the
tariff revsionists next winter. The re-
visionists and the men who believe in
the principles of reciprocity are band
ing together to give battle in the halls
of Congress. The citadel is now dis
tinctly in the control of the stand pat
ters and it is to be seen what power
the revisiOnists win develop in contest

for future generations this home of
General George Washington.

In this connection it is interesting
to know that during the ten-day annual
meet of the Board of Regents in the
month of May banquet is given to
the Governor of Virginia. After the
feast is ended and the toasts are drunk,
the entire association conduct the Gov
ernor about the house and grounds,
that he may know, by personal observa-
tion, that the pact entered into so long
ago is being faithfully kept.
It is the custom of the ladies of the
association to live at Mount Vernon
during the yearly session. At this
time the old home wears an air Of un-
wonted gaiety The kitchen gives out
the most appetizing odors. and, stimu-
lated to unusual activity by tales of the
old days, the corp of Virginia servants
are anxious to show their fitness for
the honor of "servin' de ladies'" Even
the brick oven, a relic of colonial days,
is called into use, the beautifully

1t makes no difference whether Mr..
Rockefeller be right or wrong in his
forecast of gathering storm, his plan
for the employment. Of surplus labor
is practical and profitable one and
his enumeration of road building, riv-
er improvement, irrigation, forest pres
ervation and swamp draining, as the
truly great national problems is phil
osophic. The work needs to. be done,
and eventually 1t must be done, IL the
United States is to progress. Waste
is national loss-Waste by flood and
drought as well as waste by fire.
Every acre of land should be made to
pay. The government promotes re-
search and experimentation in agri-
culture, with a view to increasing the
effectiveness of tillage; there is no
reason why it should not give counte-
nance and support to reclamation of
land and the enhancement OF the fer
tility of land already under culture.
1t is the land-the farm, which is the
pedestal Of the republic
There should be no effort to mini
mize the worth of manufactures
processes that work up the raw prod
uctS Of the earth into serviceable
forms. The ores from which are OBJ
tanned the metals of commerce are as
much a product Of the land as corn,
wheat and cotton-not as primarily
important, but quite as necessary to
man in his present highly. organized
social state. 1t is difficult to draw
the line between some of the basic
manufactures and agriculture, for the
iron furnaces and steel mills build the
railroads and bridges which give
farmers shortcut to markets.
French Statesman Also Predicts
Panic.
But the point is, that where manu-
factures develop out of proportion to
the growth Of agriculture, the world
is being turned wrong side up. Mr..
Meline in declaring that the overpro-
duction Of manufactures will lead to
an industrial crash, says; There is
room for everyone under the sun, but
on condition of sharing up the good
things of the earth, instead Of concen-
trating upon one department Of activ-

feels the thrill of patriotism stirring
the hearts of the people.
But DO the thousands who annually
sail down the Potomac to visit the
stately home of George Washington
know that to woman's initiative is
due the restoration and preservation of
the beautiful Mount Vernon of to-day?
Away back in 1853 this home was in
q rapidly deteriorating condition. John
Augustine Washington, a son of Cen
eral Washington's nephew, was the
owner of the estate. The descendants
of Washington evidently did not inherit
the clear business sense of their illus
trious ancestor, for in General Wash
ington's time the farm yielded hand
some income. Now the fields we're ly-
