Referring to the fact that fifteen hum

IF the State says to these children

Stopped in the House OF Its
Friends.

Our Washington correspondent says
that Secretary Taft's announcement that
the 1sthminn Canal Commission, IN pur-
chasing material in the open market OF
the world "has created the biggest kind
Of row in the Republican party. we
are not surprised to hear 1t. Never was
any cause more cruelty wounded in the
house of its friends.
"1f tho Isthlnian Canal Commission
said member, us not bound by any
restriction Of Congress as to where 1t
shall purchase machinery and supplies.
1t would seem to be It's duty to construct
the canal as cheaply as possible, and
SO to buy what is needed where 1t can
get 1t cheapest"
No one disputes that proposition. No
one denies that the commission has done
right. 1t could not in duty do other
wise. That makes the case so much tho
stronger against protection. These Re-
publicans have proclaimed to the PEG.
pie Of tho United States that they can
buy supplies much cheaper abroad where
tIlorc Is competition, than they can buy
the same supplies at home, where manu-
features arc protected by the tariff. They
have also proclaimed and emphasized
the fact that American manufacturers
sell in foreign markets ut lower price
than they sell IN tho homo market. tai
ing advantage Of the tariff tax to In
crease their prices to the homo con-
sumner.
Uncle Sam Ia ni,Io to go into tho mar
kets OF the world because he does not
have to pay n tariff tax on the foreign
goods which he Imports, but the citizens
of Uncle SAINTS country must pay this
tax, and, therefore, they nre deprived OF
getting the lower prices abroad. Tho
commission has proclaimed and cmpha
sized the fact that American consumers
could get their goods much cheaper II
/, there were no tariff, and the Ameri-
can consumers have had their eyes fully
opened to the fact that tho consumer
pays the tariff tax and that he pays It
for the benefit Of the protected manu-
facturers.
1t is a merciless exposure Of the whole
system of tariff taxation; 1t is q confess
sion Of every contention Of tariff re-
formers 1T is the severest blow without
comparison that the protective policy
Of the Republican party has ever re-

The Appropriation First.

II the special joint committee appoint
ed to&procure plans for a new High
School building gave the competing archi-
tects any guarantee that tho plan ap-.
proved by the committee would be adopt.
ed by tho Council, it went far beyond
It's authority. The resolution Of Coun-
Gil under which the committee acted was
as follows:
"Be it resolved. by the Council of Rich
mond, That committed Of three from
tho Common Council and two from the
Board Of Aldermen be appointed to con-
fer with the School Board as to the neces-
sity of building new High School and
to ascertain full information rs to plans,
sites and cost for such building as
conditions require, and said committee
to mako report to the Council as early
as practicable"
There Is no authority In that resolu-
ton for tho committee to do moro than
get information and report back to the
Council. 1t is absurd to contend that the
Council meant to give tho committee the
power to act finally and adopt plan.
Why, the appropriation has not even
been made, and the whole question is still
