THE TARIFF REVISION.

There is every indication that those officials in whose hands the revision If the tarin will rest are in real earnest In the first place, there Is the cam paign pledge of the republican party and of Mr.. Taft that real revision would be forthcoming, Said Mir. Taft in Milwaukee on September 2ith: "t expect to use all the influence have by calling immediately q special ses- sion and by recoAmendins to congress a genuine and honest revision of the tariff" Nobody has ever had reason 10 believe, that Mr. Taft does not ln- tend to live mp to every promise in this matter as in anything else. In addition we have the business-lille way in which the committee on ways and means, which has the prelimin- ary actions upon the tariff question in hand, has already taken mp the matter.
 But whereas the committee and Mr. Taft have expressed the desire that all should be heard on the many important tariff questions, the hear ings of the committee thus far have been, like the usual committee hear iugs on the tariff question, almost wholly attended by the representa- ! ftiNes of great vested interests, to whom lt is a matter of the most vital | financial importance that the present | high tariff rates be continued, Too much stress cannot now be laid upon Mr Taft's urgent appeal that, if the principle of protection is to reach its goal even approximately, 1t must be so applied as to benefit diversified American industries as whole, rather 1 than a few favored interests,
 MT Taft has urged that the vast masses oN the consumers arrange to have suitable representatives at the committee hearings to present their side of the question, Said he: 'If the consumers do not take the proper steps 10 secure adequate representa- tion, while the schedules are under discussion, they can blame only them selves" The New York Tribune puts this same question in little different light "When only the producers and manufacturers of protected articles are hoard,' 1t says editorally "the pendulum swings toward oyer-protec- ton, which defeats the essential pur- pose of the protective system and tends to discredit it as a policy of general benedt.' Especially in view of the fact that the present house

THE AUTO SITUATION.


 Those persons who estimate ten miles an hour as a safe rate of speed for an automobile to be driven through city streets are taking great risk With human lives, It would be more nearly safe if the public could pick the driv- CTS; but these have to be taken as they come, the drunken with the sober the careless with the careful, and those who go a little slower than the law allows with those who go considerably faster, Not every one who goes slow on foot is cautious, either. Children are not and then there are the near sighted people and the half deaf. Ten miles an hour around corners would give to many people a good chance of becoming q subject for the coroner Five miles an hour Is a rate often imposed for railway trains running on fixed rails through q city; and there is greater danger from these power yerlcles which are run and turned and stopped and started under no rule whatever.

The judgment as to speed is left too often with the individual autoist, and 1t Is usually only the coroner that Is compelled to sit officially and deter mine whether or not there was reck- lessness Autosts themselves realize that this is true and the automobile associations are now laborlng strenu- ously to provide some means of con trolling their own. They realize that If this matter Is to be taken up by the legislature as 1t surely will be fl the reckless driving and loss Of human life continues, And we are not SO sure but that lt would be well for the gen oral assembly to give careful consider alton to the matter and see if too much latitude las not been given the au- tolsts
