TOO MUCH DEBATE-"LOG ROLL
 INGn THE REAL AGENCY

It is not probable that a single vote in the Senate on the tariff bill is changed by the debate. Lengthy speeches are made with the evident purpose of distributing them among the Senator's constituents, but it is ex- tfemely doubtful if they convey any other Impression than that the Sen ators are Ion their jobs-'' The people are better posted on tariff matters now than ever before- More informa- tion has been published, and the ab- szrlce of the Republican howl of free trade' has clarified the tariff atmos- phere and permitted the people to judge the question upon the merits.
 Republican organs are estopped from the "free trade" howl by the fact that several of the great Mid-Western states, upon which the party relies for a very material share of the electoral vote in Presidential years,are demand ing tariff revision downward which has until this year been denounced as free trade" and they are represented in the Senate by very able and per sistent men who have come to be call ed "progressives,'' insurgents etc. They are laboring earnestly to meet the wishes of their constituents, but not with very great success. The '.reg- ulars' are strong enough to effect their evident purpose of practically continuing the Dingley tariff.
 Unfortunately, a few Democrats have voted at times with the Republican .sregulars'' and enabled them to carry points otherwise unattainable: These Democrats are few in number and do not represent the party at Large. They are followefsa ofs tAe Hancdek doctrine that the tariff is a locaf isst1e, and they vote for protection of the local interests of their States. fQrgetful or dfsregardful of the fact that t~what may be good for certain small proportions of their constituents, may be material ly harmful to the majority sand. in deed, to all the other states aIn base ball parlance, this is fhe5 Individual play which works badly for the club, as against the 'team play which wins games. -,.,s.
 Tariff rates are determined, not Eby debate in open session but by private conferences between members of Con- gross, in which the process called "log rolling" is employed. Exchanges of support are negotiated, and the gen. eral result is that rates are Imposed which could not otherwise pass. And there seems to be no remedy until the people awake to the evil and take summary action at the polls

The last session of Congress made appropriations aggregating $1,044, 401,- S51.12, according to an official state ment- It also created 10,120 new off, cers at a total annual cost of s11,176.- S9e.50. but discontinued enough to bring the net increase down to S,S77 at an annual cost of $5,672. 900. dn popular phrase, this ''is going some." Is it any wonder that when one session pro vides for the expenditure of over a bil- lion dollars, an increase of taxation becomes necessary and that not only are tariff duties to be retained or in creased, but new direct taxes are also proposed? And this necessity comes when the country is not in the best condition to withstand increased taxa ton.

Germany constitutes the dan ger" and there is evidently much truth in the Field MarshaFs statement.

Gold is being exported in consider able quantities. This is the result of the plethora of currency in this coun- try and the demand for money in Europe. The quantity thus far ex- ported is not large enough to increase the interest rates and is not likely to be so for some time, probably not un- til the Western demand for cash 'to move the crops'' arrives.

The late H. H. Rogers had, it now appears, been much less active than usual for the past two years or since he had suffered a slight stroke, and had so arranged his affairs as to pre- vent any slump in Wall street upon his decease. It is for that reason that his death, though sudden, did not ma terially affect the stock market.
