of the Mongol conquerers, whom he

incense burners of bronze, while on
either side stands a bronze heron.
The floors are covered with heavy
SILK rugs OF richest yellow, into
which is woven the imperial five

A dispatch from Washington un-
der date OF July 8, says:
Tariff reciprocity as the beginning
of tarlff revision may be made the
chief issue OF the short session OF the
flfty-ninth congress.
II is more than likely that after
the election In November steps VIII
be taken in the direction of the pas
sage OF general reciprocity law
This does not mean that any such
law will be passed next winter, be-
cause that absolutely is impossible
at the short session OF congress. IL
IA likely. however, that some prelim-
mary action will be taken by way OF
the appointment OF a commission or
joint committee Of the two houses
OF congress- to draft something In
the way OF a reciprocity law which
will meet the demand for such COM
merciai arrangements.
Whatever reciprocity there Is
must be by new law. because the
reciprocity feature OF the Dingley act
expired two years after its passage
and none OF the treaties negotiated
under its provisions succeeded in Sc
curing ratification by the senate.

The reciprocity OF the future must
be statutory. that is to say. the presi-
dent must be authorized In some way
either by the operation OF maxi
mum and minimum tariff or by a
horizontal reduction. to promote
trade relations with other countries.
This would mean revision OF the
tariff II reciprocity could be accom-
plished on percentage basis, that

more general principle OF the pres
ent law without disturbing the rates

eral tariff discussion. II practical

II is too early yet to say whether
President Roosevelt will or will not

note that subject last fall because
he had no many irons In the FIRE he

Meat inspection has been secured, a

I'm the conference stage, where 1t can
be handled without much difficulty
next winter. SO many big questions
have been taken out OF the way that
reciprocity will almost certainly
come to the front next fall, and the
disposition In congress Is to satisfy
the people OF the appointment OF
Joint committee OF the senate and
house TO sit during recess and re-
port legislation for the considera-
tion of the sixtleth congress. That
will carry the subject up to the
Threshold of the next national cam
paign, and that is the point political
leaders are aiming at.
Foreign Affairs Need Attention.
II must be admitted that Presi-
dent Roosevelt's foreign policy so
far as It has been developed during
his administration has not been en-
tirely successful. The senate per-
slstently has refused to ratify the
San Domingo treaty, and the admin
istration today is collecting the rev.
enues of that public under the guns
OF United States warships without a
shadow of authority from congress
or any one elese. A beginning was
made to put an end to the extraordl-
nary condition Of affairs in Vene-
zuela, but II was necessary to put a
stop TO these proceedings because of
the unfortunate connection OF Assist
ant Secretary Loomis with the me-
gotiations, the administration hav-
Ing been compromised to point
where II could not proceed without

In direct opposition to the tradition
al policy OF the United States to
avoid interference In the quarrels
OF European nations.
In view OF the fact that although
the administration has succeeded In
securing excellent legislation from
congress regarding domestic matters
it has failed TO secure the ratiiica-
lion OF single item In its foreign
policy. II has been suggested that
the president can well afford 10 wine
on his old foreign slate an begin
anew with distinctive American
commercial reciprocity scheme which
would commend itself TO the bust
ness sense of the country and which
would give us much closer foreign
relations than undesirable confer

and collection of petty revenues un-
