Apparently therefore 1t was the
young man himself who had fastened

More departments than that OF
Agriculture are going to find
themselves in trouble when Con.
gress next meets. 1t has been
settled by one of those informal
recess pronunciamentos that
there are to be more blanket APP
preparations made of the various
departments and there is going
to be a most vigorous pruning
where the hedge rows have of
late years been allowed to grow
wild. There was enough dis
satisfaction at the last session
with the methods followed in
many of the departments and
this has been increased by the
disclosure recently of veniality
in the very spots where it was
at least expected. It has already
been arranged by some of the
congressional leaders that the
campaign will be opened when
President Roosevelt asks for
more money for the Isthmian
Canal. An auditing and accoun-
ting will be asked for the $10,-
900, 900 already appropriated and
placed at the disposal of the
President. This action will be
taken not from any distrust of
the President, but as an indica.
ton that the whole method of
appropriations in recent years is
going to be changed. There
have been so many lump sums
granted in the various executive
branches that it has come to be
regarded as right by many of
the secretaries to have large
sums of money handed over to
them to do with as they see fit.
In fact one department chief,

ment and replied calmly that it
was because the proceeding Con.
gress had not given him money
enough to run his department
and he had gone ahead and spent
the money anyhow, and Congress
had no say in the matter.

While the country is waiting

While the country is waiting
to get some returns from the
peace conference, it may be vel
to look at the prospect that re
mains to the United States after
peace is signed or the fight is
fought out. There has been a
great deal written in Germany
principally, about the yellow
peril. We have hurrahed con
tinuously for the Japanese ano
thrown up our caps at every an
nouncement of Russian defeat.
But after the war what then
Suppose that japan makes good
all her promises and returns
Manchuria to China, gets out OF
Korea except in the way of a
sort of Cuban protectorate, and
stands out for much Wanted
policy of an open door {? What
then VIII our open door in
the far East amount to anything
with japan still active and ready
to do business ? 1t will amount
to absolutely nothing except that
it will prevent the partition of
the Chinese Empire into "spher-
es of influence" at the hands of a
lot of hungry European powers.
The trade will go to Japan as
naturally as water will flow down
hill. Japan will be at the doors
of China and Korea. She will
not only have the short haul in
her favor, but she will have
cheap labor, the very cheapest
and at the same time most effec-
tive labor in the world; she will
have cheap coal and minerals,
water power and all that has
made the United Kingdom, ana
great power in an industrial way
with more natural advantages
than England ever could boast.
Against these conditions an
equal tariff will amount to moth
ing in our favor. The Japanese
and Chinese with their almost
similar Geographic spelling are
first cousins to whom all the rest
of the world are barbarians. It
is to\be expected that China will
naturally trade with Japan and
Japan will be in a position to de-
liver the goods. We may con-
tinue TO export some raw cotton
to the Orient, but it will go to
Japan and be made up in Japan
ese mills. Trade with China
will be as impossible to us as
though the open door did not
exist at all, and yet the door will
be open and there will be no
cause for complaint except at
natural conditions. That is as
Japan would have it. She has
seen it since long before the be-
ginning of this war and she will
make peace on the terms that
will secure to her these material
advantages, certainly on nothing
less. That win be a yellow
peril" worth thinking about and
that is what one is TO look for as
an outcome of the Portsmouth
conference. 1t is quite possible
that Russia may be able to yield
70 Japan such terms as will make
her commercial supremacy in the
Far East thing beyond ques-
tion. If she does we may bid
farewell to all thought of Orien-
oal trade. And in the course of
years, only few years perhaps,
We may need to look out for the
Philippines.

better weather to kill it in. II
is a very easy guess that the
coming session will will not be
productive of any action in the
line of tariff revision; equally
likely that there will be nothing
done with railway rate legisla.
ton. When there is only a
month to kill, it is wonderfully
easy to kill it in Congress. The
steel trust, shipping interests
and machinery manufacturers
have all got speeches prepared
for their senators" showing
that it would be suicidal to re-
duce protective duties in their
particular line of business. The
War Department threat of Pana.
ma Canal supplies abroad has
already been called for an errant
bluff and the supplies are being
bought at home with the prices
a little shaded in some cases.
The squell that was put up for
about three days after that fam
GUS decision was made by the
War Department, however, show
ed plainly enough how real the
interests were. The railways
are not likely to be touched eth
er. 1t will be easy enough to
pick flaws in amp scheme of con-
troll that is advanced and show
how this country is a good deal
better off in respect to railway
transportation than in foreign
countries where things are bet
ter regulated. Col. Pope, who
was sent by the British govern
ment in 1908 to inspect the rail
ways in this country, reported
on his return that Great Britain
had nothing to learn over here.
However right or wrong he may
have been as to the mechanics
of the American roads, he came
near being right as to their adj
ministration. But the fear of
an "inhexible rate" and other
things that a shipper may well
dread are bound to be put for
ward if there is any attempt to
bring the railways more under
control at the coming session.
Action if there is any probably
will simmer down to deciding
between a sea level and lock
canal at Panama. And there
will be excellent reasons given
why nothing else was done. The
American people ought to have
seen enough session of Congress
to realize how deity and easily
Congress can do nothing when it
chooses.
