MORE TALK ON
TARIFF ISSUE.
Indications Point to Hopeless
Task for RevisiOniStS in Con-
greSS This Winter.
REPUBLICANS CONTROL.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-Careful
calculations as to the strength OF the
tariff revisionists in the house this Win
ter compel the conclusion that the re-
~visionists have an impossible fight be-
fore them in ease they determine to
force the tariff issue. Not only are the
reyisionists among the Republicans i Il
a conspicuous minority, but as things
stand now Republican r%evisionists
could not carry the house in Il tariff re-
\ duction contest even If they We're to
unite with the Democrats. Predictions
that congress will take no action on the
tariff are therefore made advisedly,
says the New York Globe.
Indications are that the tariff revi-
sion talk will be more vigorous than
usual this winter, but that it will end
in talk, as usual, is quite evident when
a careful survey is made. Speaker
Cannon will not have the new house
quite as well in hand on tariff as he
had the last one, but he will be able to
control it about as he wishes.
One of the weak spots of the house
from the Cannon and high tariff view
point is the ways and means commit
tee. -Four of the eleven Republican

of course, give the re~visionists control
Of the committee, but rs there are six
& Democrats it makes the revision senti-
ment rather too formidable for com
fort.
1t Is expected Speaker Cannon will
find a way to mend this situation. One
suggestion is to give Tawney the chair
manship of the committee on appropri-
ations and transfer McCleary of Min
nesota, a strong high tariff man, to the
ways and means. Something like this
will probably be done, and at the same
time the number of Democrats on the
committee may be reduced to five.
The control by the opponents of revi-
sion of the ways and means committee
would give them AN immense advan-
tage. Should Il revision contest become
SO bitter as to induce the Republican
revisionists to unite with the Demo
Gratis, something not at all probable,
there would be great practical difficulty
in getting the reyisionists of the two
parties to agree. But, even if this
should happen and an agreemert
should be reached, it is calculated mcre
than two-thirds of the Republicans
would go with the speaker and would
enable him to defeat any tariff rvision
plan that might come up.

untxersltIes and Business.

Shall the university become a busk
ness corporation? is a pressing ques-
ton which is very ably discussed by
President Henry S. Pritchett of the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
in the September Atlantic. Standing,
as he does. at the head OF one of the
greatest technical schools of the
United States, which is widely known
as model of executive perfection,
President Pritchetts wise and moder-
ate plea for better balanced co-opera-
tion between the intellectual and the
business powers of the university will
attract wide attention. His conclusion
is momentous.
For after all, We can never too often
remind ourselves that the first pur-
pose of the university is not to further
industrial development. or TO increase
the wealth of state, but that it is the
development of the Intellectual and
spiritual life. This development can
take place only in the air of freedom,
however evident are the dangers which
freedom brings with ii. Wealth, power,
the niceties of life, may all grow in an
atmosphere of limited or of artificial
freedom. but only in the air of real
freedom can be grown that spirit and
that intelligence which shall minister
to those things which are spiritual and
to those things which are eternal"

NATION OF TEA DRuNkARps
English Suffer From Complaints of
Which They Know Not the Cause.

The public analyst of one of the
London boroughs has recently been
investigating tea inebriety. He states
that. judging from the annual tea bill
each individual in England consumes
six pounds of tea every twelve
months This means that the aver
age person swallows 3.6 grains of caf-
feline and 81 grains of tannin per
diem.
This is about half as much OF the
former and nearly as much of tannin
as the pharmacopeia allows as an oc-
casional dose. When to these amounts
are added the caffeine and tannin
consumed in coffee and other bever-
ages. it is obvious that the present
generation of Englishmen is saturat-
ing itself with these two Doisons.
The symptoms of this form of self
poisoning are seen frequently enough
by physicians, but their cause is Of
ten overlooked. Many of the patients
who suffer from palpitation of the
heart, chronic dyspepsia. sleepless-
