A Pennsylvania newspaper, the
Scranton Tribune, in commenting on
the statement made by the American
wages of the silk and dye houses of
Paterson, affecting about 5000 men
with weekly wages ranging from $40
to $40, makes some pertinent remarks
upon the question of the effect tariff
tinkering would have on wages. The
Tribune says:
Would these advances in wages
occur If the tariff were now in course
of revision, or even if definite date
for taking up revision had been agreed
upon? Certainly not.
Would the wage increases be grant
ed if reciprocity treaties had been
concluded, or were in course of nego-
tiation by which tariff reduction on
silk goods was conceded in favor of
imports from France and Germany?
No; there would be no increases but
decreases of wages. Just as surely as
the tariff is revised downward by di-
rect reduction or by reciprocity con-
CcSolOuS, 81 surely Will WaSco NC iS-
vised downward in every branch of in
dustry. 1t is we'll to keep this fact in
mind"
This argument is exactly in line
with what the Journal has always re-
peatedly asserted. The people of New
Jersey encouraged the tariff tinkers
in 1892 and paid dearly for their folly.

Easy to See.

Evidently the Buffalo Express has
not read the German agreement:
ITO all appearances the tariff con-
cessions made to Germany followed
strictly the provisions of the Ding
ley law, and the great difficulty in
reaching a reciprocal agreement was
that the Dingley law restricted con-
cessions within such narrow limits.
It is hard to see how the American
Protective Tariff league expects to
show any violation of the law"
Upon reading the agreement the Ex-
press will discover that its most i'm
portant provisions are utterly outside
of the Dingley law, and comparison
of paragraph A of the diplomatic note
accompanying and forming a part OF
the agreement with section 19 of the
customs administrative act will show
how completely law of congress has
been nullified. Then it will not be
SO hard to see why the tariff league
should dispute the legality of the pro
vision giving to German exporters
permission to appraise their own mer
chandise.

WHY TAMPgR WITH IrY
Changes in Tariff Law Can Be of No
Benefit.

The present agitation for tariff re-
vision all comes from Democratic
sources Many uninformed Repub-
llcans have been caught bys the cry,
and few leaders, mistaking the
howl for the Democratic coyotes for
the voice Of the people, have joined
the opposition in demanding a change.
No one, of course, will question the
fact that many of the schedules have
become more or less obsolete iR the
ten years in which they have been in
operation, but the justice or injustice
of duties on certain articles is not by
any means the sole consideration in
the question of Tariff revision.
The effect on business conditions
the country over and the impossible
ity OF securing any schedule that will
be just to everybody are matters that
must never be lost sight of. AS to
the first of these, it is a well-known
fact to all who have followed the
economic history of our country that
the opening up of the tariff question
inevitably gives business a serious
setback, regardles of whether the re-
vision be good or bad.
The other consideration is one Of
equal Importance. There are so
many interests at stake and pressure
of such nature is brought to bear
on the members of both houses, that
it is impossible to secure law which
does not involve many injustices.
The country is to-day prosperous
and happy. The protective tariff is
furnishing employment to the Amer
lean workingman instead Of giving
the job to the foreigner. Then why
tamper with law that is bringing
about good results and take chances
of upsetting the business of the coun-
try and securing in the end a law
no better, If not actually worse, than
the one We now have?-Topeka Her.

Facts. Proof and Eiaures.

Not long ago Senator Rayner of
Maryland said in an interview:
I'VE must meet the Protective
league with facts and proof and fig
ures, and not with glittering general
tiles. The time has gone by for dis
cussing the general policy of tariff
reform"
Facts and proofs and figures are
precisely what are wanted. BY all
means let the Democratic enemies of
the Dingley tariff bring forward re-
vised list of duties so that the coun-
try will know what to expect of a
Democratic administration. Repub-
lican tariff rippers should do the
same. They deal wholly in generali-
ties. Let them now come forward
with the details. Thus far nobody.

CAR AND SPIRITUALISM.

The Berlin Tageblatt contains
lengthy article from st. Petersburg,
wherein 1t asserts that "the round
table" and its cabal are, in measure,
duplicated in Russia by the dark
cabinet" and a spiritualistic camarilla.
The correspondent adds that so COM
pletely is the czar dominated by bogus
mysticists and takers in spirituaIism
that the affairs of the realm are really
administered through mediumship.
The emperor and the imperial fam
lily are now on board the imperial
yacht Standard cruising in the Finnish
seas, and the allegation Is made that
medium has accompanied the party
and that seances at sea are part OF
the program of the emperor's outing.
The emperor's leaning to spiritual
ism is no new thing. 1t has been known
and commented on for years. During
the last few months. however, that
which was fad has become suprem-
acy.
The hard-headed dowager empress
has openly expressed her displeasure
at the conditions prevailing at court
and rarely visits him. Many OF the
grand dukes also have practically boy.
cotted the court.

No Book Trust for Flint.

1t has transoired that at the last
sess!on of the state legislature Sera-

the passage of a local act that eX-
emDts the school district of Flint from
the provision of the general act re.a.
tive to text books which prohibits
scnool boards from making change
in text books fSr period of five
years after they have been officially
adopted. Senator Allen introduced
a bill to repeal this section of the gen
eral act, but when the measure
reached the house it was defeated, as
the alleged result of activity on the
part of representatives of the book
trust" The senator then quietly
@ent to work to frame a local bill
blt would give the Flint board of ed
y&ation absolute control over the text
book proposition. 1t went through
with so little ado that nothing was
known of it at Flint until the fact
of its passage became public through
a notification received by the school
board that the measure was now In
full force and effect.

Will Go to Supreme Court.

WIZ w " SdPtCHlC SOdfts
A demurrer filed by the Crucible
Steel Company of America to the dec
laration of the attorney general in a
suit to collect 100000 in penalties
against the company was overruled
by Judge West, of the Ingham circuit
court. An appeal from the decision
will be taken to the supreme court,
and in case it is sustained the main
case will probably not come to trial
The question involved is whether the
penalty of $1,000 per month for the
failure of corporation to file articles
of incorporation with the secretary of
state while transacting business in
Michigan is valid. The Crucible
Steel Company of America admittedly
engaged in business in Detroit for
period of about five years without
filing its articles of incorporation in
this state. The company claims that
the penalty provided is excessive and
that it is prohibited by the constitu
ton which provides that no fine shall
be imposed on interstate commerce.
