with reference to the coming changes in
the tariff. Business has started up with
almost electrical suddenness and energy
throughout the country and there is
huch fear that the agitation of tariff legis-
lation will affect the boom unfavorably.
But when il is considered that Speaker
Cannon. Da.zell, Payne and the other
old standpatters of both the House and
the. Senate are re elected and encouraged
to stand firm by the old policy, there is
great assurance that no very radical or
serious change will be made in the tariff
schedules. There has been some talk of
immediate tariff leigslatioa during the
short session and before the fourth of
March in order to obviate the necessity
of the much talked of ..callRd session"
for the special consideration Of the tariff
schedules. But Senator Aldrich OF Rhode
Island, who is called the "Boss of the
Senate" and the final authority on
questions relating to the tariff. has given
out that it is useless to talk of revision at
the coming session.

Forty-two .'Dry" Counties In ohio.

The county local option law which has
just recently gone into effect in the State
of Ohio promises to do more in the way
of abolishing saloons than all the other
local option laws in the State, although
the township law has been operating for
twenty years and the municipal law has
been in use for the last six years.
The county option law, known as the
Rose law, which was passed by the legis-
iature Of 1908 in Ohio, became effective
September I. 1t provides that whenever
the voters Of a.county, TO the number Of
IS per cent of the vote cast at the last
general election, shall petition for the
holding of special local option election
in the county, such election must be held
within not less than twenty nor more
than thirty days.
The first counties voted under this law
on September 26. Since that time forty
three counties have voted, out of which
thirty.eight have voted dry aud 1--WE have
voted wet The number of saloons abol-
ished in the thirty-eight counties which
have voted dry is r,o43. The population
'of the thirty eight dry counties is approx
imately 100000 and the area 1880
square miles. In addition to these
counties. which have abolished the saloon
during the past month, there are four
other counties in the State of Ohio which
do not have saloons, making present
total of forty-two dry counties in the
State. and including about one-half of the
entire States area.
A score of other counties are now pre-
pairing for elections under this new
county Law, and if the present ratio OF
wet and dry victories continues the indi-
cations are that there will be but few
counties outside of those which have the
largest cities Of the State that will permit
the saloon TO remain.

1t is said that Postmaster General
Meyer, who is sanguine man with linn
tied knowledge of the variegated devices
for block ing legislation at the command
Of such veteran obstructionists as Speak
er Cannon. is hopeful of being able
to get through Congress at the coming
session his pet measure for the estab-
lishment of Postal Savings Banks. The
Postmaster General has not converted
Uncle Joe to the scheme, but builds his
hope of passage of the measure upon the
fact that the Chicago platform declared
in favor of Postal Savings Banks, and
that Judge Taft Endorsed the plan to
establish them, in speeches during the
campaign.
AS Uncle Joe is banker himself, and
as the banking class is unalterably
opposed TO any such reform currency
legislation, which would be vast i'm
provement over the present system, >there
is not the slightest hope for the estab
lishment of Postal Savings Banks in this
country SO long as the Uncle Joe tribe OF
politicians are permitted to control leg
islation. A review of Speaker Cannon's
record, which shows him ever to have
been arrayed against reforms of any and
every description, is enough to warrant
the prediction that the Postal Savings
Bank is defeated issue as long as this
Gar of the House is in the Speakers
chair
The Postmaster General will also make
an effort to secure Congressional sanction
for a trial of the parcels post on few
rural routes. but as the express companies
are opposed to this. aud the Speaker is
an agent of these companies, there is not
the slightest hope that Congressional
sanction will be obtained
