The effect OF Germany's tariff policy
on our trade with that country appears
TO be commanding increasing interest in
quarters where the Importance Of the
matter is appreciated and IL is expected
that the question OF commercial retail
alton will have a prominent place in
the attention OF congress at the next SEES
sion. The new German tarlff will go
into erect next spring, so that IL any
thing is done by our government with
view 20 counteracting the discrimina-
tons Of that tariff against American
products the action will have TO be taken
before next March.
A Washington report says that the
proposal OF maximum tariff is known
10 be receiving serious consideration in
influential quarters. This may mean
that President Roosevelt is giving at.
tention to the subject, It being under
stood that he is rather inclined to favor
the plan OF a maximum and minimum
tariff. while some other republican lead
ers are said TO regard the proposition as
at least worthy OF careful consideration.
II would be so radical a departure for
this country, however. that its adoption
must be regarded as extremely improb-
able. What Germany undoubtedly de
sires ia a reciprocity treaty with the
United states and It has been stated
that the negotiation OF such treaty win
probably be effected before the meeting
Of congress, There is not much conf
dence felt. however, that a reciprocity
treaty would be ratified by the senate
A tariff war, or trade retaliation. would
be an unfortunate thing for both coun-
tries and way should he found to avert
Il that would be mutually advantageous.

There is no question but what 1t pays
the railroads TO handle republican con-
ventions and choose the candidates
whenever they are able to do so. The
experience OF the railroads in Nebraska,
however, is that it pays them still better
to handle fusion conventions and choose
fusion candidates. The railroads never
paid as little Ia taxes, as compared with
other taxable property, as they did when
Nebraska was under fusion government.

the benehciaries OF the poncyholders who

stated period, are entitled to such partici-
patton. The corporation itself is, therefore.
merely q collecting and distributing bureau.
II produces nothing II is the receiver. the
custodian. the investor and disburser Of the
funds which its policyholders pour into its
golfers. These remarks are equally true
either for the life insurance company with
a capital stock or for one organized ALSO
lutely upon the mutual plan, In the for
mer case, there may be some charter or
statutory provision which will permit the
stockholders 70 receive certain dividends;
but the distinction must be sharply drawn
between the capital stock OF a life insur-
Rnce company and that OF an Industrial
corporation; for, in the latter, the opera
lions are conducted and extended by means
OF the contributions OF the stockholders,
while in the former the policyholders con-
tribute the assets

Many people must have noticed the re-
ports OF the late debate in the legislative
assembly of Sweden over the recent move
ment by Norway 20 dissolve the union OF
the two kingdoms established by Berna-
dotte, before then one of Napoleon's
marshals, ninety years ago, but probably
not everyone observed that the most cpl
grammatio and one OF the most fiery OF the
several warlike utterances came from one
Baron Kennedy. without having any posi-
tive knowledge on the subject. II is quite
safe TO assume that Kennedy is not one OF
the proper names that had their evolution
in the Swedish tongue. 1t seems more than
probable that this branch OF Swedish no.

Of plan.
Finally. II may be alleged that Japan
needs more funds at home: and IL is true
that gold coin in circulation in Japan de-
creased 65 per cent last year, and that
gold reserved against the Bank of Japan's
largely increased note issues fell from
$40, $4,000 at the close of 1903 TO $4,000
at the end OF 1904 But the odd fact in
thfs connection is, that Japan already has
huge sums to it's credit in New York and
London, yet does not draw on them. How
would it be any better OF IL such bal
anoes were doubled7

A MORAL "HOss RACAS

W. ]. Hampton in New York Sun.
We tried a moral boss race
Last season at our fair,
With Deacon Jones presidin'
To open it with prayer.
We offered purses plenty

Fell right in with our plans,
And come out to the meetln'

Be list as good a boss race

All lined I'd at the Tag,

But every golderned nag

And spite OF all Inducements
