be the result of such contest?
In 1892 the democratic party declared
war on protection. and carried the coun-
try overwhelmingly. That was accepted
by the business world at its face value,
and great uneasiness sprang up MI
Cleveland was urged to call the new Con-
gress together in extra session to revise
the tariff and thus dispose of the subject
at once. But he put the financial ques-
ton in front and with that split his

that a new tariff law was enacted-a full
two years after the party in national con-
vention had promised it. Andtduring all
that time business remained unsettled and
depressed. largely as the result of the de-
lay.
In 1896 Mr.. Mckinl ley opened his CAM
paign with the felichous and quotable an
uouncement that the thing to do was to
open the mills instead of the minis. The
country Endorsed that view. and as soon
as he was elected the promise followed
that the new Congress in extra session
would take up the subject at once. This
inspired the business world with con-
fidence. and the Dingley law. highly IA
vorable to all American industries, was on

Two considerations, therefore. enter int
the present equation. What sort OF new
tariff law is to be enacted, and how soon
after the November result is announced?

The Paramount Issue.

Jacob II. Schiff. the New York banker.
who has just returned from a visit to
Europe. is quoted as follows on the sub
Ject of American influence on financial
and business prospects:
Conditions in the United States annear

Asquith's Vanishing Constituency.

No possible doubt can now remain as
to the rising tide of anti-liberalism In
England. or at least a steadily growing
tendency toward tariff reform. The by
election al WolverhamptOn yesterday re-
suited in the return of the liberal candi-
date by majority of as against a
ma jority two years ago of 2S65. This is
practically ministerial defeat. and al
ready raises grave doubts whether Win
ston Spencer Churchill, president of the
Board of Trade, who has already been
defeated by one constituency, can carry
the district of Dundee. where he is now
standing for parliament
The contest at Wolverhampton was
pitched squarely in the key of tariff re-
form. The ministerial candidate took the
old ground of straight free trade which
is the policy of the government today.
while his opponent. standing in the union
list interest. advocated the adoption of
Joseph Chamberlain's tariff reform pro-
gram.
1t is difficult to see how an appeal to
the country can be long delayed in the
face of this steadily accommodating evil
dence of public disapproval of the pres
ent minister. Premier AsQuith has not
yet sounded a note of aggression or de-
Tense. He is evidently awaiting develop
ments. and they are coming fast enough
to convince almost any observer that I'M
less he finds and strongly adopts some
new popular policy he will lose strength
rapidly until a general election becomes
necessary. 1t is gravely doubted whether
he has the quality of leadership suffi-
GENTLY to enable him to guide the mis-
cellaneous forces constituting the minis
terial party through its present predica-
ments

Maryland at Denver.

Senator Smith thinks the Maryland
democrats should go to Denver unin-
structed. That course is probably best.
If 1t is possible to defeat Mr.. Bryan for
the nomination Maryland should be free
to lend hand. She has never been sweet
on the peerless leader. Even when Mr..
German and Mr.. Rasin were in the flesh
and in control it was impossible to de-
liver the vote Of the state to- the Nebras-
kan. Mr.. Mckinley won easily both in
1895 and in 1900. And yet is there not a
man Of the name of Field. who. lives in
Baltimore and believes in Mr.. Bryan. and
would have his fellow-citizens support his
favorite this year? Once upon a time
there was such a man. and he was as full
of reasons for his faith in Mr.. Bryan as
an egg is of meat, or a nightingale OF
song.

aroused the police and detective forces
of the cities communicate mutually and
exchange information. but often with
out effect. In the case of man without
a family or a woman living apart from
her relatives a disappearance may not
even raise question. Yet the very fact
that. an apparent accident at Laporte
brought to light the crimes that have
been committed illustrates the working
OF the law in this respect, Rarely is
such a crime committed by one person
alone An accomplice is almost invari-
ably used, and this accomplice becomes
a possible medium of discovery The
police often go on the theory that GER
tain crimes are best solved by patience.
washington has a record of two or
three for the solution of which the local
authorities are still patiently waiting.
II there was an accomplice involved In
the murder of Shoemaker Hall fifteen
wears ago or of Saloonkeeper Reid q
few months ago he has made no sign.

Footballs in Town.

The local police have been informed
that a young man was held up by two
would-be robbers last evening at the cor
ner Of 18th and F streets northwest, and
escaped loss Of property only by the ex-
ercise Of quick wit and speed. 1t is not
at all reassuring to know that footpads
are trying to work their games in the
very heart of the city, in one of the best
lighted districts, and especially on a con-
stantly peopled thOroughfare. After last
winters experience with the purse grab
bers Washington does not care for a
spring visitation of highwaymen. and will
be grateful for any official enterprise that
may land in Jail such of these undesira BILE
atizens as may have come to town lately.

Louisiana in the Field.

Louisiana's crusade against race track
gambling in that state comes as sur
prise to the sporting fraternity. 1t was
apparently believed that while New York
and the District of Columbia might for
local reasons rebel against the betting
evils at the tracks in those Jurisdictions
the game would so merrily at New
Orleans without hindrance. Too much
confidence seems to have been placed in
the well known sporting spirit of the
1.ouisianians.
1t appears from the dispatches that the
campaign in that state has the backing
not merely of the usual law and order
element but of large capitalists and infiu-
entail democratic politicians. Indeed the
business community Is enlisted In this
fight In a degree to promise results. This
fact is most important.
Washington's opposition to the race
track gambling institution was brought to
a focus by the discovery that no possible
relief could be expected from the courts
on the basis Of the existing statutes. The
District realizes sharply the absurdity OF
prescribing gambling in all forms within
the city and a mile beyond and permit
ling certain specified forms beyond the
mile limit. while prohibiting all other
forms beyond that limit. The bill which
has passed both houses and is now mere
ly awaiting a perfunctory approval of
amendments in the House cures this de-
feet in the law and its complete enact
n,ent and approval will place the District
Tor the first time squarely on basis OF
consistency in the matter of gambling
prohibition.
Should the movement against this evil
succeed in Louisiana, Washington and
New York the grand circuit which has
been maintained for 50 many years will
lie broken. The future of race track
gambling will indeed be probematical. So
serious is the onset against the institution
at these three points of its established
strength that all the forces interested in
it have been rallied to Its support. The
night is on in earnest and will be carried
~ finish.

The New Japanese Treaty.

1t is an interesting but not significant
coincidence that simultaneously with the
arrival of the battleship fleet at San
Francisco comes the news that an arbi-
fration treaty has been signed between
Japan and the United States. providing
for settlement by pacific means OF all
disputes of a legal nature or in regard 10
the construction of existing treaties.
Some LIMOGES may see in this coincidence
a token of the fears of Japan aroused by
the presence on the Pacific coast of the
great war f1otila. Some may see i'll II
the efficiency of the big stick" method
OF dealing with foreign nations. In truth.
however, the treaty has been signed at
this time because in the course of events
representative of Japan who under
stands both his own people and the Ameri-
can policies and conditions has reached
an agreement with the Secretary of State
in precisely the manner that has been in
evitable from the beginning of the con-
troversy with Japan.
There has really been from the outset
of the recent so-called difficulty with ia
pan no reason to expect other than
sensible adjustment of all differences. Had
it not been for the Incorporate behavior
of a few people in this country and ia
pan the governments would have been in
no degree embarrassed by the circum
stances. The issues themselves were
never acute. were never vitality serious.
There was never the least warrant for a
display of war feeling on either side.
1t suited the purpose of the anti-govern-
ment party in Japan to make a great
noise against the administration because
il failed to fly at the United States over
the San Francisco troubles. 1t also suited
the purpose of small party in this coun-
try to make a great to-do over the mat
ter for strictly partisan ends. Fortunately
both of these extreme elements were held
in check by their respective governments
The new treaty Is in accordance with
the program of adjustments laid down at
the recent conference of The Hague 1t
is a step in advance. especially as this
is the first arbitration treaty ever to be
negotiated between the United States and
Japan. Ambassador Takahira has amply
justified his selection by the government
