President and Tariff.

If the president had desired to open
the tariff question he would not have
hesitated to do so in his recen mes
sage. But We find one Of the longest
messages on record without a mention
of the word tariff. One paper, the Des
Moines Register and Leader, is Of
the opinion that the president sup
pressed his tariff views because of fear
that some one would thwart his other
reforms if he opened the. tariff. This
Is the most ignoble motive that has SO
far been attached to any n of the
presidents acts. Mr.. Roosevelt Is not
that sort of a coward. The paper in
question simply makes him appear as
q coward in order to maintain its own
contentious on the tariff.-Cedar Rap

A Useful Sign Post.

With manufactured exports amount
ing to $500, 900, 900 in 19O6--more than
twice the value ten years ago under
a tariff revised downward with the
double intent of reducing prices at
home and of charging u sales
abroad-the trade congress which as
sembles in Washington hext week
will start with a substantial basis to
work IN. The business captains who
are to consider means for extending
the foreign trade of the United States
need fall into no error as to whether
or not tariff revision downward is the
right road to the end sought. The
500. O00, 900 Of exports for 1906 ought
to be a pretty good sign post.

SUPPORT THE OUTLOOK RIGHT.
Continued Prosperity Certain Without
Tariff Reform.

The president of the largest bank In
the Middle West writes to the New
| York Times that "the prospects for
! another years prosperity are as good
as they were a year ago." That seems
to be the general judgment of compe-
tent observers. With few exceptions
the men whose fingers are constantly
In touch with the financial pulse Of
the country are agreed that there Is
nothing in sight to indicate a slump
in the present conditions which make
for, prosperity.
Would this same confident belief
| prevail If the congress and administra-
ton elected in 1904 had been pledged
to tariff revision downward. and v
that congress were now, in the closing
weeks of its tenure, actively engaged
In revising the tariff schedules to
meet the demands of "progressives"
and "reformers?"
Would the banks continue to lend
money as freely as ever? Would bust
ness enterprises keep on charging
and expanding?
There is but one answer to this ques.
ton. The banks would not be call
Ing in their loans, reducing their lines
Of discounts and adding to their un-
employed reserves, just as they were
doing in the early months of 1898,
when tariff revision downward was
absolutely assured, in anticipation Of
trouble sure to come. Business enter
prises would halt in consequence Of
a money supply kept inside of vaults.
Construction, not enlargement. would
be the rule.
1t is fortunate for the country that
the party which carried the presiden-
tial and congressional elections in
1906 was not pledged to tariff revision
downward and that by agreement of
the heads of that party tariff revision
cannot come sooner than the spring
or summer months of 1909. 1t may
then If present conditions continue
during 1907 and 1908. But, in any
event, the country feels safe from
tariff ~tinkering for at least two years
to come, and bank presidents can con
tinue to say that "the prospects for
another years prosperity are as good
as they were a year ago."
1t is true that a revision in tariff
would cause a serious f%luctuation in
the money market, and that there
