TARIFF TALK.
A NORTHWESTERN WISH.

From The Milwaukee Journal
MIR Aldrich may know all about the tariff but if

could wish that he knew less.
DEMOCRATIC INDIFFERENCE.
From The Rochester Post-Express.
IT would seem that the tariff question IS more
than ever local issue" far as the Democrats
are concerned and apparently they are quite in
different 70 the sacredness of party pledges.
THE BASIC ADJUsTER."
From The Baltimore American
II will not do to blame high prices on the middle
men, although prices are regulated al along the
uct In the hands of the consumer The tariff is
the basic adjuster, and while II cannot accomplish
miracles it can certainly produce regulatve results.
PEOPLE WILL NOT BE MIsLED."
From The Washington Post.
The pledge Of the Republican party is for
pledge IS not inconsistent with the imposition Of
hat the protective system shall stand But if
means also that there shall be overhauling Of
rates and reduction Of rates that are excessive.
The people win not be misled into accepting any
other meaning
NEW MEASURE IN CONFERENCE.
From The Omaha Bee
There are many, and so radical differences be-
tween the Senate and House bills that the opportu-
nifty remains to revise practically the measure
has been a potent influence in lining up Senators
support the bill as it came from the committee,
NOT LOGICALLY CLEAR
From The Philadelphia Ledger CDem).
The present probability is that the pending tariff
will be finally enacted upon protective lines that
act If it prove successful party will seek TO
disturb it If business should not respond favor
abIv il the hoped-for boom should not follow

the Democratic party is to take advantage Of this
SITUATION with all the Democratic states support
ing the tariff. is not logically. clear
REAL REVISION rs WANTED.
From The Utica Press.
To many citizens it does not appear that Senator
ejves with which he IS dealing in his present han
ding OF the tariff schedule To numberless care
f,,I ohservers he seems bs concoeting a result
which If II has anything like the form OF a final
conference bill will be that which President Taft
cannot keen faith with the people and confirm
yhich the American voters understood either the
platform to promise or the candidate TO represent.
BAILEY AND IRON ORE.
From The Springfield Republican.
The attitude of Bailey on the iron ore duty
seems 10 he Indicative of the attitude of Southern
Democrats on the tariff generally, Unless in
cor7e tax is imposed, he says, the government
not afford TO abandon any customs tax and so for
TiIlman-yote TO retain iron duty before il
has been determined whether an income tax is to
he imposed or not. Put why not make iron ore
free m order TO limit the power and exeetlons of
the Steel Trust with it's large monopoly OF Lake
sIIperior ore lands? No, saws Bailey; the way To
sftack the trusts is not through tariff reduction.
