tains that country is not thus un.
friendly he may by proclamation de-
clare that the 25 per cent penalty
shall not operate against the said
country and that It's exports may be
passed through our custom houses at
the rates named in the act. This
power Mr. AldrIch would confer upon
the President to exercise in his dis
erection.
Mr.. Shively's contention that Con.

stitution to delegate to the President

Of the United States for decision, II

provision in it.
The constitution definitely pre-
scribes the manner In which laws of
the United States shall be made

Congress and be approved by the Pres

which law of the United States can
be made. except that bill passed by
both houses and sent to the President

II, at the expiration Of ten days. while
Congress is in session, he has taken
no action with respect to 1t.
Mr.. Aldrich proposes to give to the
President the power to make our tariff
laws for imports from all the coun-
tries of the earth. At his discretion
he might admit, say. cotton goods and
all other goods from England at the
rates stated in the act and impose
duties rs per cent higher on the same
goods brought from Germany or
France. BY deciding at his executive
discretion that any country is com.
mercially unfriendly to us, he might,
under the Aldrlch provision. require
the people of this country to pay the
differential of rs per cent upon every
thing they buy from that country,
while the same goods from all other
countries would be admitted at the
lower rate.
1t is responsibility which no man fit
to be President would assume. Mr..
Aldrich surely is not unaware of the
fact that If the bill passes with this
proviso the tariff rates of the United
States enforced against all the world
would be those of the bill plus % per
cent. 1t is just that kind of pro-
hibitive tariff that the disciples of
Aldrich are yearning for.-st. Louis

A Rich Nam. Tariff.

There are two main reasons why a
high tariff is a distinctly eastern prop
osition. 1t is the East, not the West,
that is fighting for the maintenance
of robber schedules.
Why? In the first place, because
practically all the millionaire trust
barons are eastern men. Their SYM
pathy with the growing West Is an
affair of the pocket AS long as the
West consumes their commodities at
high prices they would like to see it
grow.
The second reason is that all .oppo-
sition to direct taxes on rich mems
surpluses comes from the East. The
tariff is convenient form of in
direct taxation. AS long az rich men
can control the law-making side of
government they will fight income
taxes and inheritance taxes and sad.
die the nations revenues on the con-
sumers of life's necessities.
The East breads all forms of d.
rect taxation. but more especially the
income and Inheritance taxes. The
West has less repugnance to these
forms of direct taxation for obvious
reasons. Americas great private for
tunes are owned in the East. West
ern wealth is more evenly distributed.
Direct taxation. either in the form
of Inheritance or income taxes, would
force the rich to assume their Just
proportion of the nations expenses.
The indirect tariff taxes have an ex.
actly opposite tendency. The chief
burdens fall on the comparatively
poor. Tariff taxes not only enable
favored trust barons to take toll on
industry, but enable private fortunes
to escape direct taxation.
We fight in circles for equalized tax
alton. When England took indirect
taxes from life's necessities, and d.
rectly taxed the prodigious fortunes of
her rich men, there was the usual cry
of conflscation. But England's wise
men saw where justice lay, and her in.
come and inheritance taxes have
grown larger instead of smaller with
the years.
This nations prosperity has been
too sudden to keep revenue taxes prom.
erly equalized. But the West Is awak.
ening to the colossal injustice of
shouldering the burdens Of govern.
ment. that millionaires NAV eniov
their prodigious wealth In selfish i'm.
munity.

A Point Wen Taken.

The argument by Senator Shively,
of Indiana, against the legality Of the
maximum and minimum clause In the
Aldrich bill will attract wide attention
from students of constitutional law.
Mr.. Aldrich proposes that the duties
prescribed in the new tariff act plus
an additional % per cent shall be the
tariff law of the United States. He
does not let 1t be understood that he
expects these prohibitory rates to be
enforced against imports from all
countries. but only against countries

sOuE OFcbt0,
BY Sc to 20 the United States Senate
has refused to put lumber on the free
list. thereby promoting the MONOPOLY
of great natural resource, imposing
ans unnecessary burden on the Ameri.
can. people. and encouraging the rapid
destruction of our forests.
In fifteen years the price of lumber
has increased 100 per cent At the
present rate Of consumption our tim.
Der will be gone in thirty years. In
Canada and Mexico are vast forests
from which we might draw a large
part of our lumber supply. but the
tariff is practically prohibitive.
The Canadian lumber-jack and saw.
mill man is paid higher wages than
the American. Therefore the tariff
doesn't protect labor. The only person
who benefits is the lumber baron, who
charges the American consumer the
amount of the tariff in excess of what
he should charge for lumber.
Removal Of the tariff will reduce
the price of lumber and tend to pre-.
serve American forests There is alb.
solutely no excuse for the Senate's az.
tion. and 1t is to be hoped that be.
fore the Payne bill finally become,

considered and the tariff removed.
