There can be no question that good
faith requires the scrupulous redemp-
tion Of political promises. If the
pledges are such as invite disagree.
ment, and are sure to meet opposl.
tion in some quarters, they should not
e-made. A party which cannot agree
after an election on matters concern
ing which 1t was apparently unit
before election. is properly chargeable
with dishonesty.
Everybody interested in the plat
form dispute, however. should recall
the fact that when the Democratic
party ruled this country. 1t either had
no written platform at all, or else its
principles were SO generally and SO
conclusively stated that nobody who
had Democratic convictions could
quarrel with them. In those days, as
now, 1t was the minority party that
wrote all things for all men in the
platforms. and then fought about the
matter afterwards.-New York World

Congress was called in special ses-
sion to revise the Dingley tariff. The
sooner the better. Mr.. Taft told Con-
gress. in effect. A tariff bill of sort
was passed by the House. The Senate
Is still pegging away at one Of Its
own. "A period of conference, possibly
long and acrimonious, is to be expect
ed after the Senate tariff bill has been
passed by the Senate.
When will that be?
The tariff bill has disappeared, SO
to speak. 1t is moving along, but 1t
has been rather e1bowed out of sight
by proposals Of new excise tax. The
imposition of a new tax like the cor.
poration tax would be a surprise, not
to say fraud upon the country. The
country has been waiting to have the
tariff revised and uncertainty and
suspense removed from business. The
country seems likely to wait. Instead
Of the relief to business which was
promised, burden upon business Is
threatened.-New. York Sun.

The Senate debate reveals the entire

liorts of privilege to defeat by any
means the income tax which the Re-
publican President promised and
which the people have right to ex-

the history of this tariff debate as the
open confession of Senator Aldrich
that this corporation tax was present

The Corporation Tax.

The Corporation Tax.
Many of the arguments urged
against Mr.. Taft's corporation tax are
palpably insincere Most Of the OBJ
1e stions advanced In good faltn arc
rounded on mistaken theories.
To-call this measure farreaching
step In the direction OF centralized
federal control OF all the business of
the country is ridiculous. Tho govern
ment undertakes to control nothing
except its own revenue. No rules and
regulations are prescribed for the son
DUCT OF any mans business. No at
tempt Is made to classify corporations
as good or bad, and to exclude from
interstate commerce any business that
does not measure up to the moral
standards of some enlightened bureaus
crat. There is no federal-license lun-
acy about the measure, and no stretch
ing out toward national incorpora.
ton tax, and by way of collecting that
tax 1t demands sworn statements from
the concerns affected.
New York City takes almost the
same steps in collecting personal tax
from individuals. Unless the citizen
Is willing to accept the assessment
levied against him, he must make a
sworn statement as to the money he
has in the bank. the bonds and mort
cages he owns, his debts, and all prop
erty liable to this tax. Yet we have
never heard New York's personal tax
law denounced as a scheme to enable
the state to regulate every mans pri.
vate business.
Senator Aldrich's brazen confession
yesterday that he accepted the corpora.
ton tax as the surest means OF defeat
Ing an income tax will be less embar.
RAISING to him than to the President.
The senator from Rhode Island is un-
der no special pledge to the people to
reduce taxes or to equalize them. Mr..
Taft is solemnly committed to both of
those policies. Without the powerful
assistance of the President the senator
would make little Roadway with his
corporation tax. With that assistance
he seems to have defeated the income
tax for this session.
Bad faith is common among the
congressional upnolders of privileges
and plutocracy, but 1t Is not often that

Simple Way of Saving Forty Per
Cent Duty ON Blackthorns.
A traveller from Europe who arrived
recently brought with him a dozen
blackthorn canes. He purchased them
in London as souvenirs of his trip.
intending to present them to friends,
an exchange says. The canes were
very fine specimens of the blackthorn
and were appreciated by those who
received them.
These must have cost a good round
sum-. said one man. .and the duty
must have been quite an item.'..
That's where you make mistake"
was the reply. You will notice that
none of these canes have ferrules.
When visited the store In Lon

canes and walking sticks l told the
clerk what-sI wanted and he showed
me q handsome lot finished in differ-

me II I was going to take them to

Nov, these clerks on the other
side are we'll posted on many things
that we pay little or no attention to,

It was a part of his business to un.
derstand our laws. because many OF

me to purchase canes that had no ter
rules. for two reasons: First, could
not correctly guess the length of the

would be an easy matter for them on
this side to take the cane to store.

Then he added the other reason.

have to pay duty Of 40 per cent on
them when you reach New York.

The recent outbreak of the foot and
