and pamphlet.
One particular mystery of The Worlds s map
we have not in the least been able to solve.
Why does it classify Missouri and Kentucky as
Republican states? Mr.. Bryan carried MISSOURI
in 1900 and Mr. Parker lost it in 1904. Ken
tuCkr was Democratic in both these campaigns
1t is true that Kentucky elected Republican
state ticket in 1907. But Missouri elected
Democratic state ticket in 1906 If Kentucky
i, Republican, Missouri should be Democratic

1904 Yet all are classified Republican.
Missouri elected Democratic Governor IN 1904
and is classified as Republican 1t may be
urged that in most of these states the majority
of the state officers elected were Republican.
But in this state in 1906 Governor Hughes was
the only Republican candidate elected. Yet New
York is also black on ''The Worlds map We

TARIFF REVISION.

We are glad 10 see that the idea of ap-
pointing a commission Of experts TO pave the
way for a revision of the Dingley tariff
schedules is finding approval in manufacturing
and business circles because ii indicates that the
producing and commercial classes generally are
deeply interested in securing a revision which
shall be rational, moderate and, as far as prac
ficable. freed from the interference of political
manipulation and partisan warfare. The country
plainly does not want to see'the Dingley sched-
ules overhauled IN the spirit Of sectional antag
onism and dstrust which has so often ruled in
the preparation and passage of tariff measures.
X is q significant evidence of progress toward
national unity that Old antagonis1ns between the
South and the North and between the East and
she West tariff legislation have been
practically eliminated. The nation has been
consolidated. and the spread Of manufacturing
through the South and West has made their
industrial interests in large measure identical
with those Of the Eastern and Northern states
IN which manufacturing had its first develop
ment II is impossible now 10 pit the agricultural
community against the manufacturing com

now, formerly. between the states primarily
devoted TO the one sort of production and those
primarily devoted To the other. Nor need one
group OF states feel any longer that il may find
its fortunes sacrificed for the aggrandizement
Of another.
Conditions have become more favorable than
ever before TO a rational and equitable adjust
ment OF tariff benefits and burdens. The coun-
try has definitely accepted the principle Of pro-
lection, and there are to-day only few irrecon-
cilables OF the old-fashOned free trade type

and il would be blindly amateursh statesman

tenths of the voters Of both parties believe that
II is wise TO lay protective duties which will
overcome differences in cost of production here

portion of voters in both parties probably also
believe that the present schedules being anti
