II ATTITUDE OF
PRESIDENT TAFT .

the apparently Indifferent and acquiescent attitude OF President
Taft. When finally, after the tariff bill was taken into conference,
the President expressed his views in regard to revision to a num-
Der OF congressman; the popular mind was relieved OF the fear
that the administration would prove pusllanimous and that
Senator Aldrich would bestride it as he had dominated the Sen
ate. TO what extent the President will hold out is, OF course. yet
TO be seen. Senator Aldfich aud Speaker Cannon know that he
would be extremely reluctant to veto a Republican tariff bill and
therefore they will Weld no more than is absolutely necessary.
The President is told that any radical changes in the Senate rates
would invite defeat for the bill in the Senate il not in the House,
and then all the tariff reform fat would be in the fire and the
President would be responsible for the failure OF legislation. A
welLbalanced and firm President, true to the peoples interests,
need not regard these considerations. President TAFT did not
dictate to Congress when il discussed and adopted the tariff rates.
but ii 8 his province now to tell Congress what kind OF a tariff bill
he will sign, and to insist that the bill to be presented to him
shall be one to meet his approval. II he does not tenporize, but
remains firm to the end, he will immensely increase his prestige
with the people, even in the improbable event OF the defeat OF the
bill by the Senate. But let us wait for the report OF the tariff
conferees, to be forthcoming this week.

Here Is the Story of One Little
Outing and Its
Pleasure.

Catching his darling in his arms the
father tossed her high above his head.
while the mother wreathes the daisies
into a coronet for her baby queen, II
at its completion places it upon the
round golden head with its ruftied
curls. AS the white flowers rest there
the large blue eyes lowered and the
baby hands extended as II to balance
her crown-her breath stopped for the
moment through fear Of tipping her
head-slie appeared a Verltable angel
with a halo above her yellow curls, too
fair to touch or finger. But like all IL
l~usions, it passed. the healthy animal
life asserting itself. The baby screamed
with JOY. dancing up and down on her
tiny feet. and pulling the wreath off her
head to admire and study from a closer
proximity. Then. putting it roughly
back. she starts off on a brisk trot.
stumbling but needless, and goes to the
edge of the bank to ooh into the
brook.
In baby fashion she smiled and
arimaced at the reflection three feet be-
lew, so r~ejoiced at the sight OF her own
sweet face as to forget the wreath. now
hanging over her ear. Another toss Of
the head and it fell ver inc over on
tie grass into the brook.
With a loud cry, she grasped for it
and lost her footing. but the stalwart
father heard her screams and caught
the hem of her frock as she tumbled
down the bank. To quiet her alarm the
bronzed but gentle parent rolled a leaf.
making a spiced and fragrant cup for
the baby fingers TO hold and from
which to drink the clear sparkling
water OF the brook.
Then carrying her off on his wide.
strong shoulder he placed her in her
mothers arms. where she fell asleep
soon after. with a small cake in one
hand and a crushed daisy in the other.
They softly laid her down on a shawl
among the sweet grass and partook Of
a light luncheon. while I walked down
tho side Of the brooklet and found the

on the branch of a dipping shrub. !

souvenir OF the day. loving it better FOR
the happy heart and baby fingers that
plucked 1t and the mother love that
wove it for her queen.

NEWARK AND THE
HUDSON TUNNELS

celebrated in Jersey City yesterday. What benefits will accrue
to Newark by the enterprise? And it does not require much dis
cernnent to perceive the benefits. Manhattan is a great magnet
for population and wealth, but it attracts more than it can
digest and there is d constant overflow. Brooklyn, Harlem
aud the Bronx, situated on the lines OF least resistance, have
heretofore received the vast bulk OF the overflow. The Hudson
ferries have been barriers to immigration into New Jersey. The
tunnels open the way. Newark will be brought as near to New
York City Hall as Brooklyn, Harlem and the Bronx. 1t has cheaper
land, houses and rents and more convenience of home for the
family than these now soidly built boroughs. 1t has fine parks.
beautiful suburbs, a splendid water supply, the best schools.
excellent hospitals, a good government and other conspicuous
advantages. New population and added wealth will give an
i'm petus to public improvements. We will carry out the grand
scheme OF d ship canal and municipal docks, and the meadows
will be alive with commerce and industry. The Hudson tunnels
will have quickened Newark's growth and activities and fastened
manifest destiny. We are nearer the goal, now that the Hudson
River is tunneled to release the population and wealth that
we need.

THE GOVERNORS
CRITICISM OF SENA TIE

tariff performance. One paper suggests that the Governors
views are akin to party t%reachery, overlooking the fact that they
reflect the attitude OF President Taft, OF many Republican senators
and representatives, and also the opinions OF a majority OF the
leading Republican newspapers in the United States. Congress
met i'll special session 70 carry out "a declared policy Of tariff
reform. The Senate deliberately repudiated that policy and
framed o tariff more Objectionable to the people than the Dinoley
tariff, undong the work OF the House, which bore some re-
senblance TO tariff reform. 1.-THE Senate majority represented the
principles and honor and conscience OF the Republican party,
which in this case the Senate certainly does not, there would he
some sense i'll depreciation Of the Governors criticisms Of the
Senate. In point OF fact, he expressed the honest thoughts not
only OF the great majority of the Republican voters in New Jersey
but OF the nation.
