THE HOLIDAY TRADE.

No better reflex OF the generally
prosperous condition Of the country
could be had than is 70 be found it
the fact that reports from an the cen
ters OF trade represent the holiday
business as nearly everywhere above
the average. while in many places it
has attained to rccord-breaking pro-
portions, The holiday trade Is always
the first TO suffer from hard timer,
and the last to recover when there rs
a shortage in the revenue the un-
necessary articles are always the frs.
TO be cut of. Economy always begins
With the luXurics. and when the de-
mand for holiday presents becomes
great i mas be taken for granted
that with the average citizens tho
period OF financial depression is past,
In its review Of business In Chicago
for lest week, the Inter ocean says:
Activity in the holiday trade was
a leading feature last week. Business
with jobbers and retailers has never
been SO large. or the variety of goods
handled so great. Toys ana jcwclry
have been taken ~ about the usual
rate, but the substantial presents have
come in Tor a larger share of attention
than In any previous season.

\ TARIFF COMMISSION.

The wisdom OF creating a tariff
commission. such as is recommended
by President Taft, has not been ques-
toned by any one, and we doubt
whether the creation OF such a body
will meet with any opposition. The
proposition which was brought for
ward by some one a few months ago,
for the creatio9 e. a commission
clothed with power to change sche-
dulles at pleasure, met with opposition
on every hand. and very properly so,
since the mower Of making changes in
the tariff should rest with the con
gress, alone, But the pending propo-
sition is o very different matter. 1T
contemplate the organization of~ a
board OF five members. who shall de-
vote their time exclusively to n study
of the tariff. with a view TO it's effect
upon M lines Of industry, and thus be
prepared TO make intelligent sugges-
lions 10 congress from time TO time
with respect TO such changes as may
be demanded By eloaely observed on
ditiona, in orGer 10 keen the various
schedules consistent with themselves,
ana equitable at all Times with respect
to an lines Of industry.
Representative N,edham, Of the
ways and means committee, who has
made a careful study OF this matter,
Is preparing n bill for the %organiza-
ton of such a commission as the
president recommends. ana he Is said
To be confident that the measure
which he win shortly introduce will
meet the appreciation OF congress and
the country He is said to have made
a thorough study Of the whole situation
and reports from Washington give the
following general outline of the plan
he proposes TO offer:
"Thc commission is to consist
of five members, one appointed by
the majority of the ways and
means committee, one by its
minority, ono by the majority of
the senate finance committee,
one by It's minority, n the fifth
member by the president. The
commissions work is to be kept
secret so that Il viii not disturb
business. be confined to investiga-
tion ANA It's reports made only to
congress, which alone shall have
authority to give them to the
public
Practically the only objection that
has been urged to the commission
plan has been based upon the fear
that the members of tho body, If APP
by the president, might seek
10 make their work square with the
views cf the chief executive, rather
Than with the ascertained needs of
he industrial conditions of the coun-
.ry, and to obviate that objection was
Ncedham's object in dividing the
appointing power between the presi-
lent and the two great parties in the
Wo houses OF congress.
