Go Slow and Think

1t will be very unwise If congress.
responding to the clamor of few, or
of the politicians who are thinking
more of their party than of their
country, should rush into the matter
of tinkering with the tariff Not many
interests are suffering to any extent
and some of the arguments used by
those who are noisily demanding a
change, are trifles light as air. Moth.

The enforcement of the new shah

been fixed for the Chadir festival, the
festival of the lake, which will be cele-

this date is regarded as very auspic-

Inc washington correspondent of
tne boston Herald finds that the New

sentiment Is represented by their con!

up to Secretary Taft's presidential
ambition. This observer thus states
the matter:
The Massachusetts senator's have
not been stating their views about a
presidential candidate, but it is a good
guess that neither of them feels very
cordial toward the Tart boom. There
must pc further developments before
thelr interest in it will be re-enltsted

In this matter Judge Taft was NOT

the fight Of the Republican factions in
OHIO has been intensified, and it looks
as II an excellent opportunity for cas-

disposition is to hold Secretary Taft
responsible. But If he can whip For
