\ True Picture.

For a luminous and accurate word
picture Of the Payne tariff bill we can
unresevedly commend this paragraph
from the eloquent address Of the Texan
orator, Morris Sheppard:
The PAYNE bin Is from no possible viewpoint
sincere and equitable revision Of the tariff. It's
practical effect is 10 re-enact or TO Increase the
overwhelming majority Of the present cxorbitant
mates OF the mOre than 400 articles and classes
q articles in the present. tariff law il makes only
conditional Reduction 70 less than 800, Except
ing about IS outright increase It leaves the re-
mainder unchanged % serve as a minimum scale
adding % per cent CT more fer a maximum scale
Il provides for the transfer Of most Of the articles
Of importance on the free list including hides and
iron ore and coffee. 10 the maximum scale adding
charge Of % per cent ad valorem. II is 40 worded
that on and after sixty DAYS from the passage Of
the bin the maximum scale will become effective
as TO ihe majority Of imported articles. II provides
That and after SIXTY days from its passage the
maximum rates shall be charged on imports from
an countries which give any other country prefer
entail trzde treatment over the United States
Most Of the countries from which our imports
come have special trade treaties which they can
not abrogste modify IN sixty DAYS. In any
event. il is doubtful whether any country would
Willingly yield % 50 insolent and Unparalleled
demand and proceed TO the immediate reauange-
mont Of commercial relations the result q years
Of diiigent study and negotiation merely to pacate
the United States.
Volumes could not tell more, or more
exactly expose the extraordinary assump-
ton that the Payne bill is a downward
revision Of the tariff. AS to most Of the
schedules. it is precisely the reverse. and
as 10 some Of them outrageously so.
Without going into tedious details, Mr..
Sheppard has tersely stated the main out
lines OF this remarkable bill. To the busy
reader nothing could be more nluminat-

Status Of Marines Restored.

The restoration OF the legal status Of
the United States marines. which is just
announced, is most commendable. It is
an action that means simple justice to
a corps OF men Of demonstrated useful
ness and will be generally gratifying
to ali who have followed and entered
fully into the merits OF the controversy
or contention This action supplements
the ordering Of the marines bacl TO the
ships-an order made necessary by a 3lro-
vision IN the naval appropriation bill.
The complement of marines on battle
ships must be per cent OF the enlisted
men. Although the constitutionaIity OF
this provision in the appropriation act
has not been passed upon. the wish Of
Congress conforms so thoroughly with the
public view that really there should be
no prolOngstion Of the contention. There
has been enough pickering and alto
gether TOO much decentralization and in
justice involved IN the entire episode.
It is matter for rejoicing shat the
marines have been set right
