GERMANY, FRANCE. AND TARIFF.

GERMANY, FRANCE. AND TARIFF.
Before Congress shall be convened In
regular session again the country will have
opportunity to judge Of the respective &C.
complishments of Elihu Root and James
Thompson McCleary as economic prognos-
ticators. The Secretary Of State is of opinion
that tariff wars with Germany and France
will work TO our serious injury; the former
Congressman ia convinced that the damage
to us, If any, will be Insignificant and of no
appreciable disaster to our foreign trade.
The opinion OF Mr.. McCleary touching this
matter was the opinion Of the Fifty-ninth
Congress.
1t is now certain that with the close Of
the current fiscal year, June 30th, 1907, the
tariff war with Germany will begin, for the
administration has no authority to make
concessions that would serve to avert II, and
the commercial conflict with France will
likely begin at an even earlier date. Doubt.
less England will look on with the suprem.
est satisfaction. She has tariff that nobody
wants to eight or can fight
France has tho maximum and the mini
mum, and 1t works admirably. For long
time she has been very kind to us--not al
lowing us the minimum, it is true, yet not
seeking the maximum 10 us, either; but that
is all over. Cut off from our markets under
the Dlngley law, France is resolved to shut
us out Of her markets by the exercise of the
maximum. This is commercial war, and by
the assembling of Congress In December,
we shall know how much 1t hurts, If it
hurts at all.
Mr. Mckinley was converted to the doc
trine oil trade reciprocity by Mr.. Blaine,
and he was more or less reluctant disciple;
but he came to embrace the idea with all the
energies of his mind. When he became
President he looked around for a competent
man to negotiate reciprocity treaties, and
his choice fell on John A. Kasson. The two
had served in Congress together, and Mr..
Mckinley had found In Mr.. Kasson his
ablest lieutenant in the Titanic parliament.
AIRY battle against the Mills bill.
Mr. Kasson went abroad and negotiated
numerous reciprocity treaties; one with
France that 1t was expected would increase
our trade with that country enormously
perhaps the most generous trade concession
France ever allowed an alien. Mr. McKin.
ley sent all the treaties TO the Senate, and
some time after. died. Then some stand
patters suddenly discovered that Mr.. Nc
KlnleY was opposed to his own treaties
and so they died.
Tariff wars with Germany and France

POLITICAL LEADER GONE.


Mr.. l. Freeman Rasin died at his resi-
dence in Baltimore City early last Friday
morning. He was stricken with apoplexy
on the 23rd of February last and in his lin
gering sickness his friends had strong hopes
of his complete recovery, but without reali
cation.
He was descended from some OF the ear
liest and most prominent settlers in Mary
land His family was OF French ancestry.
His father, Robert Wilson Rasin, was In
early life farmer in Kent county, but
moved TO Baltimore, where he engaged In
business as a real estate agent The family
is descended from William Rasin, who Set
tied in Kent in 1859. Mr.. Rasin's mother
was Mary Rebecca Ringgod Rasin.
Born in Kent county on March II, 1888,
he was educated at Washington College,
Chestertown, Md. At an early age be moved
with his parents to Baltimore and became
dry goods clerk. Later he entered in bust
ness on his own account and successfully
conducted il until 1867, when he was elected
Clerk Of the Court of Common Pleas He
was reelected in 1873 by majority of a.
000 and reelected for the third time In 1879,
thus serving 1S consecutive years In this
office.
In 1886 he was appointed Naval Officer for
the port of Baltimore by President Cleve-
: land and served until 1890 Mr.. Rasln was
Insurance Commissioner from 1892 until
1896, and during Mr.. Cleveland's second
administration was offered the United States
Consulship TO Berlin, but declined IL. He
was delegate TO the national convention
that nominated Cleveland for the third time
and had always been warm friend and ad.
mirer of the ex-President.
For forty years Mr.. Rasin controlled the
Democratic party of Baltimore city. He
made politics profession and controlled
with an iron rod. His power was mistaken
at the time of his death, which was In con-
trast with other men in other States who
essayed to boss politics and went down be.
fore unyielding popular sentiment against
bossism. In his profession he amassed a
large fortune. TO what extent the Democ-
racy will feel the loss of his leadership, only
time can tell.
