Roasting MIX Prices.

A correspondent of The Washington
Herald asks these pertinent questions
concerning the proposed increase Of
cents a quart in the retail price Of milk:
'SWhat reason has the retailer Of milk to give for
an advance Of cents in the retail price Of milk
when the demand from the farmers or wholesalers
is bat l cent per quart?
IF 1t is true that the increase in the cost Of
living farming implements. &c, makes il neces-
sary for the increase Of 1 cent per quart to the
retailers what reason is there that the consumer
should pay an additional cent profit to the re-
taiers just on account Of this unavoidable % rise
Can any q them prove that there viii be any
additional cost in handling the milk at the I-cant
incTeaseY"
As readers of this paper are aware, the
retail dealers themselves are by no means
agreed on the expediency Of an Increase
in the price Of milk. One Of them is
quoted as saying there is no necessity for
an Increase either in the wholesale or the
retail price; but If there is an increase in
the former. there must Of necessity be an
increase in the latter. We agree with our
correspondent that there is no apparent
justification for any increase in the retail
price in excess Of the increase in the
wholesale price.
If the matter Of price were left TO the
ordinary law Of supply and demand. no
one has any doubt what would happen il
an attempt were made to add ? cents to
the retail price of a quart Of milk Sales
WOULD fall of so heavily that the price
would at once drop to a figure that would
be acceptable to the consumer But in
the case Of milk, an association has un-
dertaken TO fix the wholesale price, and
the health Office has undertaken to reg
ulate the conditions of milk production.
The normal result Of public regulation
and inspection Of food products Is TO IN
crease the price, particularly when the
regulations require more expensive meth
DDS of production. We regard this re-
suit. in the case q so valuable a food
product as milk, as unfortunate. but in
evitable. Perhaps, even, It may be nee
essary IN order to induce the owners OF
dairy cattle to bring their milk output
to a higher standard Of purity and health

OUR 0UTW0RN TARIFF.
Emancipation of Commerce bound
to BE a Dominant Issue.

From the New York Times
Is il not curious that the present Presi-
dent Of the United States. with his great
and exaggerated professions Of interest
in all ethical questions. his inveterate
tendency to regard all questions as ethi-
cal, even those Of taste. should deliber-
ately and persistentIy ignore and deny
the moral bearings OF tariff taxation for
the benefit of the few at the expense of
the many? And the queerness Of such
calculated ob1quity is the more note
worthy because Of the fact that at one
time Mr.. Roosevelt saw-and, seeing,
naturally preached-the injustice and un-
fairness Of the very purpose Of protec-
ton and of its practical effects. But. as
pointed out 50 clearly by Gov. Folk. the
economic vice Of the protective tariff is
not less conspicuous than its violation Of
equity Here We are. a nation with i'm
mense resources which We are developing
with steady determination and energy.
with the announced purpose Of taking a
great part, II possible a dominant part.
in the commerce OF the world. And we
keep in operation a system Of obstruction
and restriction of commerce Of the most
rigid. complex, vexatious, and costly
character.
II It We're not for our extraordinary
natural advantages, the immense range
and variety of the products Of our soil
and our mines, and the unfailing stream
OF immigration from ON earliest days
as a nation. We never could have stood
our own efforts to impede trade. Sooner
or later the reversal Of this absurd policy.

bound to be a dominant isue in OEc poll

The Presidents Return.

After an absence Of some three months,
the President Of the United States is once
more 'in our midst" and. while his inn
mediate sojourn is for few days only,
.sul, as It really marks the beginning of
his official residence for the coming win
ter. we welcome his return to Washing
ton, hope he has had a most pleasant
vacation and that his prospective months
OF activity present no terrors of any
sort TO his view.
Things are somewhat dull and common
place in the summer season when Mr..
Roosevelt casts not the light Of his cOun-
tenance upon US here in Washington.
Somehow, the sunshine doesn't appear rs
bright, nor the moonlight so soft and
appealing. There is a Istlessness and
nOt-at-home effect attaching 10 every
thing. Square deals bulge at the ends.

dency to bag at the knees. Things get
badly out of whack, to tell the truth.

is welcome-thrice welcome.

he is away When he isn't around. We
feel as vacant as would a library from
which had been removed the Encyclopedia

Loeb to watch over us and keep US in

Standard OIL Magic.

From the Providence Journal
Watch the professori Standard OIL
owned Waters-Pierce stock TO the amount
of nearly 1900 shares, for some time up
to 1899. From that date to quite recently
the stock was owned, or. at least. held
a distinction calculated to create a differ
ence between the corporation and legal
view-by Standards secretary. During
that period splendid dividends seem 10
have accrued to Standard from the secre-
tary's investment. The wonderful trick
is possibly explainable thus simply: The
gentleman whose hat is taken for the
display Of the trick is really a confederate
of the magician.

However, there is no excuse for arbi-

Of the Commercial Club last night
The gas companies of England, he
said, are organized on a basis OF actual

cities can gas coal be bought as cheaply
as in Indianapolis. and in az Of these
cities the by-products from the manu-

can be obtained for them IN this city.
