Senate.
During a session lasting nearly four
hours the Philippine tariff bill and the
bill automatically containing the Porto
Rican budget were passed by the SEN
ate. Only nominal resistance was
offered by the minority to these meas
ures. An amendment by Senator Johns
ton (Ala.) declaring the intention of
the United States eventually to grant
Independence to the Philippines was
opposed as being out of place in this
bill, and was rejected Senator Gull
berson sought to limit the operation Of
the Porto Rican act to July I, 1910, but
his amendment for that purpose was
defeated. The senate entered upon an
agreement to adjourn three days at a
time until the conference report on
the tariff bill is ready for considera-
ton, and also not to enact any legis-
lation when it does convene. BY the

After debate of an hour an a half
the house referred the tarif bill to the
conferees, disagreeing to all of the SAT
amendments of the senate, by a vote
of 17S to 151. Eighteen republicans
voted against this action and one dem
ocrat voted for it. Chairman Payne's
plea to have the conferees sent to the
conference unhampered with instruc-
lions was granted. At 1926 the house

POWERS OF THE TARIFF BOARD.

II is interesting TO note that the Republican
State Convention in Massachusetts committed
itself to the hroadest possible construction OF
the clause in the maximum minimum section OF
the Payne tariff law authorizing the appoint
ment of n board of tariff experts. The MasSa-
chusetts platform calls the board permanent
tariff commission which it will probably prove
to be although 1t has Yet no permanent
status in the sense that its three members NIL
offices specifically created ny act of Congress
The Republicans of the Bay State evidently
favor giving the board a standing similar to
that of the Interstate Commerce Commission
and making it a permanent governmental
agency of the first rank. Dwelling on the sub
stantial benefits of the Payne law as a first
step toward a rational adjustment of tariff
duties. the Massachusetts platform said:
We direct particular attention to the perma-
nent tariff commission provided FOR by the
Payne act and believe 1t VIII be OF great as
sistance to the Executive in determining ulS
important questions devOlving upon him. ana
that it will further be of general beneht in en- ..
abling the gathering of such information as VIII
make possible the most comprehensive ana IN
telligent consideration of tariff schedules
That view conflicts absolutely with the narrow
Interpretation of the maximum minimum sec
ton insisted on by Senator Hale. as well as
by certain stand -patters" in the House OF KEEP
resentatives who do not care TO have the as
sistance of impartial expert findings in framing
future tariff schedules. Mr. Lodge, member
of the Senate Binance Committee, was a dele
gate 70 the state convention, and the construc-
ton given to the tariff board authorization un-
doubtedly reflects his opinion, as well as that
of Senator Crane and of Representative Samuel
W. Mccall. who was a member of the confer
ence committee on the part of the House OF
REPRESENTATIVES. The Tribune has always held
that President Taft and Senator Aldri n were
right in their understanding of the powers be-
slowed on the new tariff board. 1t is glad TO
see that that understanding is being generally
accented.

TAlfnANY TAX RATES.

What Tammany rule means to the taxpayers
Of this city great and small, is strikingly illus
trated by the experience of a correspondent
who reports TO us the progress of taxation on
his home, which is a modest twOand-a-half
story private dwelling house in a quiet uptown
residence street IN Brooklyn.
Last year his taxes were $50 10, on an assess
ment which was fully up to the real value of
the place and probably more than could
have been got for it at Il forced sale A few
days ago he got his bill for this year and found
10 his CONSERVATION that the taxes for 1909
were 500 %, nearly 10 per cent higher than
last year. on the same full assessment
Since last year there has been no increase IN
the value of property there. On the contrary
it has shown a tendency to decline. There have
been no public improvements and there are no
additional advantages or services from the city
government TO compensate the taxpayer for the
increase There is simply an increase of nearly
10 per cent in taxation, with nothing 10 show
for II. In such manner do taxpayers pay for
the sweet boon of living under a government
which works for its own pocket all the time"

ARE YOU -. QUITTER9

But two days more of registration remain,
to-day and Monday. Register to-day Saturday,
being half-hOliday for many persons, will be
the most convenient day of the four for regis
tratIOn, and a great increase over the previous
days is to be expected.
On this subject of registration Mr.. Barnard,
the fusion candidate for Mayor, said Thursday
night:
Gentlemen. you must remember if you don't
register you can't vote. There are only two
days more. and if you don't register you must
stand on the side lines while the fight is on. A
man who doesn't register is a Quitter. man
who doesn't vote deserves all he gets. You
have the votes, if you know how to use them
The disposition to shirk this duty could not
be more happily characterized than by the
words. 1.-The man who doesn't register is

to men Of Cabinet size are too limited and the
duties and responsibilities too OnerOus now. and
if TO them shall be added the duty of headsman
most Of them will hand in their own resigna-
tIons and suggest that the President find some
one else 70 do that sort Of work.
Under these circumstances some form of old
age pension seems unacceptable. 1t is impOr
tant, then, that the best form be devised-One
which Will entail n minimum of expense on the
government and require from the date of its
installation that the employees themselves shall
contribute TO a fund with which to care for
their seniors, and for themselves when their
time comes. Under such an arrangement the
government should make up the deficiency only
for the interval possibly ten years, before which
the sum raised by deduction from salaries be-
comes sufficient TO meet the demand. A large
majority of the employees favor such system,
and 1t Is believed that the government will itself
save money by its adoption through the in
creased expedition and accuracy of its service.
Theoretically, such system Is, of course, pa
ternalism Practically, 1t seems to be neces.

despite theory, the sooner will work in the fed
eral departments approximate that standard so
earnestly desired by the department heads and
by that part of the public which has to do with

AROLLSHLNG SEA WAR.

The suggestion was made in a letter To the
editor of The Tribune which was recently pub
lished in our columns that warfare at sea should
be abolished that the oceans which are the
great highways of the nations should be neutral
lied and that an international marine police
force should be established for the maintenance
Of that happy state of affairs. Other CORE
spondents have since commented enthusiastic
cally upon the proposal and have asked for edl-
tOriaI commendation of it. Such commenda-
ton we gladly give. in so far as the scheme is
practicable, as we consistently give it to all
practical proposals for the promotion Of peace
and good will among the nations We cannot
however permit desire, however laudable, 10
outstrip reason or the allurng aspect of any
project to blind our eyes to the obstacles which
lie in the way of its realization We should
like to see maritime war abolished. We should
like to see all war whether on sea or land,
abolished But we must seriously doubt whether
it would be practicable to abolish war at sea
until il was also at the same time abolished
on land.
For let us see what it would mean to abolish
war at sea while it still existed on land. 1t
would mean that certain nations, such as Japan
Great Britain and Cuba because of their in
Sulnr position, would be exempt from war. They
could not fight any nation and no nation could
the world they would have to he kept aloOf
Ii would mean that nations which could fight
would be restricted to fighting certain others
and restrained from lighting the rest Thus
Germany could fight France but could not fight
Great Britain 1t would mean that nations
could fight each other at one point but must
elsewhere he mt peace. Thus Germany ana
France might fight along the Rhine or in the
NOsGes and invade each others territory. but
must not fight at sen or attack each others
coasts. 1t would mean that a nation could not
protect part of its own territory which was
separated by the sea from its mainland Thus.
Great Britain could not send forces To protect
India OF South Africa and japan could not
protect Corca.
1t seems to us that such state of affairs
would be SO illogical and would cause so many
complications that its maintenance would he
quite impossible. Nothing is more necessary in
international affairs than that equality and i'm
pArtiality shall be maintained among the ma
lions. rule which would discriminate i'm favor
OF some and against others would be ntoIer-
able The abolition of prlvateering the OK
emption Of all private property at sell from
seizure, ana other general principles appIi able
ailke 10 all nations, are practicable and their
adoption may do much to mitigate the evils of
war. But we cannot hope To see war NJ sea
and war ON land so differentiated that one can
he prevented until both can be simultaneously
abolished
