TIE INDIANA IDEA.

When convention of the Repuh-
lican party in the state of Indiana
declared in favor of revision of tho
tariff whenever such revision would do
more good than harm 1t was about up
to tho idea OF tariff revision prevalent
among the leaders. But at its con
vention the other day there was an
encouraging and, to many, q surpris-
ing definitencss. We believe, II said,
that revision would be now beneficial,
and to minimize the harmful disturb
ance that tariff changes necessarily
produce. we insist that revision be
speedily done. We therefore favor
the calling Of an extra session early
In November 1905, to make such re-
vision, and recommend that congress
take immediate steps to secure the
proper data by experts for intelligent
revision as advocated by our Senator'S
and Representatives from this state;
but we also insist that in such re-
vision the protective principle shall
he maintained and that maximum and
minimum ratios be imposed so that our
export trade can amply be protected
and foreign determinations against
us be averted
This definite declaration has beer
received with 80 much favor by Re
publicans all over the country tina
there is even talk that It may serve
as the model for q similar declaration
/ by the Republican national convcn
ton. If It should the Republican
party and tho country would have
reason to thank the Indiana Repub
Leans who can both SEQ and sa,
straight. The country has been read,
for tariff revision for some time. |

clans are ready for il.

much freedom of speech and freedom

SAME OLD STORY.

The town of Wakefield, Massachus-
etis. walked up several years ago To
the notion that she wanted a public
electric Eighth = plant. She got II,
and now she has walked up to the fact
that she must spend $4,000 to put
the plant into proper shape. As the
plant originally cost S250,0O0, II can
he seen that the management hasn't
been very business-like. 1t is the
same old story When the public"
goes into business It soothes itself
with the assertion that there Isn't amy
reason why It can't do business for
itself as well as. or better than. pri-
vate persons can do 1t, But It never.
or seldom docs. So we read that this
or that municipal enterprise Is running
down and that the public Isn't good
TO itself. It Is entirely true that the
public ought to be able to do business
well for itself, but It Is also entirely
true that In most cases II doesn't seem
to be able to,

THE YALE CORPORATION

A member of the clergy has come out
with that much discussed subject OF
denoninatlonalism on the Yale corpora
ton again. He SAYS the number of Con-
gregationa ministers on the board Of
fellows Is entirely too high and adds:
1.-TWO Congregational clergymen would
be just right let the rest resign" He
suggests Bishop Brewster a Yale man,
to represent the Episcopal church and
Most Reverend John Ireland to hold n
Roman Catholic membership Lets
be verN broad and inclusive In all such
matters" he says. 1T counts not sim
ply in financial way, but 1t makes
Yale more powerful nationally and
more comprehensive in religious
way"
A glance at the names on the COR
/ poration, as 1t is printed In the front
of the Yale bulletin reveals the fact
i that practically all the reverend gem
tlemen" are Congregationalsts. Rev,
William Rogers Richards Is a Presby-
terrain. 1t may be Of interest to learn
that one of the corporation, namely,
i "Hon. William Howard Taft LII D.,
washington, D. c." is considered as
4 having Episcopallan preferences, in
spite Of the fact that he had Unita-
rian bringlng-up. Another Episcopalian
