in such form as to avoid friction in
the house or senate. Our merchants
and manufacturers now desire peace
more than anything else. Uncertain
ty hampers all interests, and many Of
the most ardent advocates for an adj
vance are now willing to be let alone
rather than invoke further agitation.
1t is unfortunate that the presidents
wishes for downward revision did not
receive earlier consideration by the
legislature, because the higher the
tariff the more certain it will be q
mark for future political attack and
agitation The tariff is rapidly be-
coming the chief political issue, and
the only way to have kept it out of
politics was to have submitted to
reasonable reductions. Unless all
signs fail, it looks as if we should
shortly be troubled with another
period of disturbing tariff discussion,
possibly at the next session of con-
gress and certainly during the next
congressional election. A good many

Taft is to be congratulated upon the
firm stand which he has finally taken

BRUSSELS. Aug 5.-No band
played, no royal salute was fired, no
kingly message was sent when Albert
of Belgium, heir presumptive to the
Belgian throne started last spring on
his long voyage through the Congo.
The band will play loudly when he re-
turns about the beginning of August
but there will be discord in it's sound.
King Leopold allowed his nephew to
start without friendly message for
the most sufficient of reasons. He had
no friendly message to send him. The
king knows that this journey through
the Congo BODIES no good to him. His
consent was asked to it only as mat
ter of form. Prince Albert, rich by in
heritance from his father, endowed
with revenue by the Belgian parlia-
ment, owes little to, and knows he will
get nothing from the king. When he
returns from the Congo he will throw
off all pretenses of submitting to lead
ing strings follow a policy OF
his own, and, inevitably, will find
himself at the head of party hostile
to the king.

1t is one that has startled the princes

ford In his, opposition to the Lincoln
Memor1al scheme, Far be 1t from
my purpose to declare that Mr.. Lark.
ford had any right to oppose any
scheme in which w. Sidney Pitman
was Interested. We only know that
for daring, he has met unheard Of
prosecutions In and out Of the local
! Business League by Mr.. Pittman in
his position as president Of the
League, who has not often hesitated
to use what influence he had with the
National officers as we'll.
Mr.. Landlord declined the re.elec-
ton to the presidency Of the local
League In Mr.. Pittman's favor. and
on presenting, Mr.. Pittman to the
League for his Inauguration, was
rendered vote OF thanks by the body
for all the work he had done in it's
behalf. But now, because he has Of
Tended the president he is expelled;
and expelled by q meeting Of few
men of the League when not a quo
rum was present, all to satisfy Mr..
P1tman's vanity, and personal jeal-
ousy, Mr.. Lankford was to be ex-
PEELED because he had made certain
charses against Mr.. Pittman, charges
which tho executive committee ig-
ncred, exonerat1ng the president az
meeting in which Mr.. Landlord was
not called. Because MIR. Landlord
dared to make charges against w.
Sidney Pitman, the executive commit
tee recommends that he be expelled.
The President, the Secretary and
the Chairman of the Executive Com
mlttee have been asked for their rea-
sons for attempting to expen Lank-
ford, but have given no reply.
Counter charges against Caweford
have been made and the air
is full of the feeling OF the
clansmen. One thing. we do know,
there is little likelihood of Mr..
Pitman building successful organi-
cation with such tactics. No man is
worth SO little to a community that
he and his influence can be ignored
It seems that his only difficulty is his
failure to allow other people to sue
coed in the same calling Surely
John A. Ian gford is not under neces-
sity to look for another profession
because Mr.. Pittman chose to become
an architect. There ought to he
room enough for two.
Every one who knows Mr.. Lark
ford knows that he is every inch a
man, and that he rings true to his
friends every time. He bellows in
giving every man a square deal and
expresses his opinions fearlessly
The estimation in which he is held by
a majority of his associates in Wash
ingtcn is shown IN the fact that in a
subsequent meeting of the League
in regular session. he was upheld
and vindicated in such a decisive man
ner that proves him to enjoy the full.
of his fellows. $3.50
