steel trust has eliminated domestic com
petition and the tariff prevents foreign
competition. There Is u temptation,
the retcre, to put on the market inferior
quality because, having the field all to
itself, the trust knows that the railroads
must take it's rails, good or lad. And
bad rails have been the cause Of many
railway accidents.
sNot only that; the railroads Of this
country are Obliged to pay about 1915
per cent more for the trusts rails than
Canadian roads pay for the same pro-
ducts. Thus excess cost has u direct
beurlng on constructive aud mainter-
ance policies. 1t offers an Involvement
to use lighter rails IN nev construction
and to use old rails longer than it is safe
to retain them.
The operations OF the steel trust are
often held up as an example Of tariff
injustice. 1t should not be possible for
American steel makers to sell their
products in foreign lands cheaper than
at home, and any law that makes it
possible ia n bad law and should be re-
pealed. The enormous profits OF the
stee! trust are made at the expense of
the whole American people. They ma,
not pay with their lives exactly, out
they do pay with their money, for the
railroads must base their freight and
passenger charges on the cost Of rails
and equipment. But the steel tariff Is
not the only one that shonld be modified
or repealed altogether.
There ia the watch trust that sells
watches abroad, thanks to the bencti-
cent operations OF the tariif, more
cheaply than at home. The sewing
machine trust does the came thing.
And even SO gentle, kind and considerable
a corporation as the STANDARD Oi
monopoly soils certain grades OF OF
abroad more cheaply than at home.
Tho strong and growing depGLd Tor
tariff revision, not only in the demo
cratic, but III the republican party rs
well, is one OF the hopeful signs OF the
times. The paramount issue in the
next presidential campaign will almost
surely be the tariff issue. and our re
publican friends will be sorely pushed
IN defending it.

The Coal Situation.

AMERICAS RIGHT TO
RACIAL PRESERVATION

The talk Of the transfer OF the fleet
to the Pacific waters is a dramatic move
in the diplomatic game with Japan. 1t
may be accounted Tor rs a mere dis
ciplinary vancouver, but the story Will
deceive japan least Of all the world.
The question maeked behind many
false issues OF San Francisco schools,
Japanese pride and the like is the great
est Of world questions-that Of the
migration OF the races. Before settling
the question Of what is practicable and
polite, thu twentieth century mind Will
be likely to ask what is right. No
question Of right or wrong confronted
the men of shore and sea along the vary
ing line where the ocean OF bartarism
broke In bloody foam on he rock OF the
Roman frontier, and wore it away at
last. 1t was the simple problem Of
bone, sinew and bravery against dis.
cipline, victorious traditions and stern
i~ntrepidity. But we of America may

desire to come. We built up the tradi-
ton that our open door is a necessary
manifestation OF our faith in the equal.
lily Of man. We have been violating
this tradition in immigration laws, but
we have never repudiated tne principle
itself. What right have we to exclude
the japanese, or the Chinese? To be
sure, there are 400, 000, 900 OF them
enough to fill this continent FROM sea to
Gea with out-numberinR hosts, and put
vote, outwork and Outright us-and the
uea has become a far easier highway
than the bleak Sarmatian plain over
which the invaders moved to Rome. To
be sure, there are other hundred
millions, Hindoos, who are even nos
beginning their migratory movement
but the question is, may we rightly
keep back the sea? Japan contends FOR
a complete abandonment OF the power
on our part to restrict immigration,
Perhaps we are at the parting OF the
Iye. Let the ~portentions question
once be grasped by the Caucasian race
