Information comes from highly
creditable source that the administra-
ton has about decided upon a striking
change in its financial policy. The ac-
ton, if taken, will reverse former Sec
rotary Shaw in one particular and RAY
eliminate certain railroad bonds from
the position they now occupy as gilt
edged securities. There is an impress
sion here that it may have been an in
timation of what was to come that sent
J. P. Morgan across the Atlantic before
he had time to put the finishing touches
to the conference which he tried to ar
range between President Roosevelt and
leading railroad presidents. Foreign
capital, which is heavily invested in
American railroad enterprises, gives ev-
cry evidence of extreme constituencies
over the present agitation. Former Sec
rotary Shaw, in his efforts to establish
an elastic currency, permitted banks to
place with the treasury railroad and
other bonds to the amount they desired
conditional upon the government bonds
so released being made the basis for
increased circulation. 1t is said the
present head of the Treasury Depart
ment considers such method of
finance is unsatisfactory, not conducive
to financial stability and not in c0nso-
nance with the general policies of the
government.

The Board Of United States General
Appraisers has many curious and inter-
esting questions to decide in regard to
the classification of imported articles,
and the rate of duty which they must
pay. One OF the latest decisions is that
the flag of the United States is not
toy. A japanese firm of importers in
Chicago had brought in a consignment
of silk flags, each an inch and half
long, and asked that they be admitted
at 35 per cent ad valorem. The ap-
praisers, however, decided that the
flags must pay duty of 90 per cent, as
manufactures of silk. "We do not
think" they said, that the American
flag, however diminutive, is CONNER
cially, commonly or nationally regarded
as a plaything for children; and we
find that the flags in dispute are not
toys"

Coincident with this order the Presi-

Many persons think that the censuses
are compilations Of figures for the de-
light of Statistlcians. But all workers
for special classes and special sorts
of legislation know that a good census
is the foundation of work To provide
proper education for the blind and the
deaf it is necessary first to have full
registry of them. To know how to pre-
vent and punish crime we must list and
classify our criminals. 1t is next to im-
possible to legislate, even to think in
diligently, about divorce until we have
divorce statistics These are examples
of the kind of census that we still lack.
There are only three States in the
Union that have begun to make prop
er registry of the blind, only nine that
publish divorce statistics. In time every
State will have an adequate working
census of every class and kind of per
son that needs public help, and the ma
tional census will combine and codify
the State censuses.

West End WOmen's Republican Association
Changes Constitution.

The Republicansm of Mrs. William Grant Brown
can no longer be called in question. At the time
OF her election to the presidency OF the West End
Woman's Republican Association there was con-
siderable difference OF opinion upon the subject on
account OF her husbands connection with the Direct
Nominations League and by inference. with Mr..
Hearst, and that difference nearly rent the club
in twain. but yesterdays monthly meeting held
in the Hotel Astor. she gave ample proof OF her
determination TO allow the body which she
presides to be indoctrnated with nothing but the
purest Republican teaching.
The afternoon devoted 10 a discussion OF
socialism, and Mrs. Louis Allen presented state
ment of the socialist position. She considered Il
dangerous one. Mrs. Allen explained. but she had
not studied it enough to be able to refute It en-
tirely and thought the members might be inter-

of the revision committee that. while other move

Hence, it is argued that, while the reading Of
papers socialism was mere discussion, the dis
tribution OF pamphlets would have been 'propa-
ganda'
The committee on revision of the constitution is
much pleased with this particular clause and IL
has been the of settling amicably dispute
which threatened to disturb seriously the lately
stored peace of the West End Woman's Republican
Association. The old constitution forbade the dis
cussion OF such subjects religion, temperance,
suffrage. etc. and a section OF the
ISOLATION that wanted liberty declared that
the ''etc." stood for all enlightened ideas. This
section was anxious 10 have the constitution re-
that all topics Of political interest
could be discussed. and another section deter
mined that restrictions should be made. The
clause agreed upon TO suit all parties and
was carried without a dissenting voice
