GERMANY'S TARIFF PROBLEM.

We have several times called attention to
the fact that German sentiment is by no means
a unit In countenancing the initiation Of a trade
policy which may provoke tariff war with
the United States. UnGer the new reciprocity
agreements with Austria Hungary, Italy, Ru-
mania Servia, Switzerland, Russia and Bel
giuua, Germany is TO impose after March next
q double tariff rate many classes Of i'm
ports. the seven powers named having the ben
eft of the minimum charge. In justice to them
and In return for the concessions they make on
German products Imports from other countries
should logically be compelled to pay the maxi
mum tariff rate. 1t has been presumed, ac-
cordingly that in readjusting Its tarin sched-
tlies. Germany would find it necessary to de-
uounce all favored nation treaties with coun-
tries outside its new zollvereln scheme. Inc
united States has a general treaty of COM
merce with Germany, which contains faFofei
nation clause. 1t has also a special reclproc-
fty treaty covering, on our part, few imports
like argol vermouth, still wines, paintings anu
stotuarv. But It has been understood that the
carnan government would decline TO class this
treaty as on par with the newer commercial
conventions or as emitting the United States to
.be bene6t of the new minimum tariff rates.

,yould have no course left open to them Dut

62e0o0 These same goods could be purchased,
says this German critic, as easily from rival
manufacturing nations. and would be so pur-
chased if the United States chose TO impose
an anti-German differential duty. And once
the German manufacturer had lost his Ameri-
can market, no subsequent patching up OF diff
ferences could win it wholly back. Germany
has waged a tariff with Canada for the
last two or three years. and the journal quoted
asserts that as a consequence German exports
to Canada fell from SO, ,234,0 900 in 1903 to So
497, 900 In 1904. How long, it asks, will 1t be
before the whole trade with Canada is lost?
And how long would it be before hostile tariff
legislation swept away the lions share OF
Germany's Sill, 100000 trade with. the United
States?
1t is to be hoped that such clear express
sion of the well founded fears of German man
ufacturers and shippers will lead the Berlin
government to hesitate before closing-or part
ly closing-the empires doors against American
products. AS we have said before, of the artl-
cles we sell to Germany-amounting in value
In 1903 to S222 414 000-two thirds are raw ma
terials which Germany needs either for direct
consumption or for manufacturing purposes.
These 1t is against the empires own interest to
exclude or to tax exorbtantly. We are, there
fore In q far better position to meet any tariff
determinations than Germany can possibly be.
We do not desire a tariff war, but we need not
fear it. We would gladly maintain the status
quo under which German-American trade has
expanded by leaps and bounds. Germany Will
have to take the aggressive, If any break comes.
And it will force that break-if it does force
it-in the face of earnest opposition from It's
own merchants manufacturers ana shlpperS'
who see that any policy of exclusion will lead
inevitably to stagnaton and loss.
New-York tribune., 1905-07-01
THE RUSSIAN SITUATION.

II is to be observed as one Of the most ON
inous features of the case that mutinous out
breaks in Russia are occurring just when the
government is negotiating for peace with
Japan. The mutiny is therefore, not merely
protest against the war; it is distinctly
revolutionary movement, directed against the
autocracy itself. Probably its leaders have
shrewdly chosen their opportunity at this time
when the government is embarrassed with the
cost and strain of the war with Japan. The
fact that the outbreaks are thus timed indicates
that they are for full revolution and not merely
for reform. If for reform under the present
dynasty, they would have waited until the
government was rid Of foreign war. Being for
that gov rnments overthrow. they seize the
opportunity when it is already weak and ham
pered.
1t has often been said that the strength Of
the autocracy lies largely in the supineneSs
and lack of initiative of the people They are
like dumb, driven CATTLE and incapable OF
rising in revolt But just such people, if ever
they do become aroused, are the very worst
to deal WITH for they follow their leaders with
blind, unreasoning loyalty. Once they gave
such loyal following TO the Gar. Now many
are giving it to revolutionary leaders. The mu-
tineers of the Prince Potemkin have yielded
without a struggle, and that may be regarded
as favorable omen; but there are still signs on
every hand that the whole fabric of autocracy is
in danger.

THE PERSISTENCE OF BARBARIsM.

perpetuating and actually aggravaung othef
old time practices of at least equal SaVasef9'
century ago and more In the reish VI
George III. the Fourth of June, being the
Kings birthday, was celebrated especiahy III
Edinburgh. in a manner which must be re-
garded as prototype of our style of celebrating
the Fourth of July For months in advance
we are told. the boys saved their pennies FOR
the purchase of fireworks. When the DAY
came they built bonfires fired pistols, guns anu
cannons. and amused themselves from nlorh
ling to night with crackers, serpehts anu
"squbs" The dag was ushered III at an carry
hour with deafening discharges OF arms ana
fireworks to the great discomfort and annoy
ance Of the public, and later, when the fun oe-
came more fast and furious. the streets were
actually unsafe for well dressed OF oruerly
looking persons. Squibs and serpents Diazed
about in all directions, and all sorts of missiles
were hurled at passers by. Fires and grave
injuries to health and limb were innumeraDie'
The day was an orgy.
1t seems probable that as these baroarous
practices were in full cry at the time of our
Revolution, they afforded the model for our
celebration of Independence Day. 1t was a
particularly bad model 1t was abolished by
the police in the old country nearly a century
ago. But we have stuck to it here. and II we
do not fling dead cats and goldfish heads ABOUT
as the boys of Edinburgh did. we have deVei-
oped the destruction Of property by hre, the
ANNOYANCE and torture Of decently disposed
people and the manning, crippling and killing
of thousands of human beings to degree OF
efficient savagery never dreamed OF in those
earlier years.

to which Secretary Taft will give his attention

to extend all possible courtesy to Mr.. Taft. The
