New YORK tribune.
Although so far as the free and dutiable
lists are concerned the senate's tariff bill
has proved a serious disappointment to the
public. fulfilling republican, promises
neither to the ear nor to the hope, there
is yet a good deal OF Encouragement to be
found in the fact that the makers OF that
misfit draft have indirectly confessed the
inc xpertness and lnsufficiency of their
workmanship. They ave given practical
evidence OF an intention to abandon out
worn methods in tariff legislation and to
substitute accurate knowledge for hap
hazard guesswork in solving the chief
problems Of protection. They are paving
the way for a determination by pslnstaking
investigation of the differential in cost of
production here and ~abroad-the factor in
the tariff equation which has so far eluded
the schedule makers in both branches Of
congress. In creating machinery to supply
information now sadly lacking congress
holds out to the public the assurance that
the tariff law. now almost rewritten, will
be the last OF its kind.
In will DO a great step in advance to
bring into existence a permanent tariff
commission charged with studying condi-
TORS in production at home and abroad,
comparing costs and demonstrating the
real handicap under which the domestic
producer labors because Of a higher wage
standard and q higher range of prices for
raw materials. It Is a burlesdue on serious
legislation for congress to try to apply a
definite principal OF protection. such as
was laid down in the last republican ma
tional platform. when the data needed for
guidance are so vague and inexact as to
be practically worthless. II the tariff
makers do not know what It costs TO pro-
duce a similar article in a foreign country

Not content with establishing rural schools
where farmers daughters might learn the
domestic arts. Germany has now instituted
travelling schools. Il was found that the
rural schools did not meet the needs OF
the whole rural population The bulk OF
this population 10 made up OF small farm
ers, and In such homes the help OF the
daughters is needed so constantly that they
cannot be sent away from home to school.
Neither can the money be provided for
their expenses. and many farmers are

been away to school they would not be

them. The Bavarian Farmers association

lected two nuns as teachers The associa-

Telephone Manners.

The question of telephone manners
and telephone etiquette which has been
raised by a discussion in a contempt
rary is surprising, because it seems to
show that even business people admit
there is such thing as telephone man
ners, though they appear to think the
code is exhausted when the man at the
other end of the wire has waited their
convenience. Unfortunately the tele-
phone manners that exist are only a
relic eff the past and the habitual tele-
phoner gradually discards small courte-
sizes. The conversation that begins with
the ring of a bell by one party and a
sharp "Hullo'' by the other is necessari-
ly stripped of dignity, while the fact
that if the speakers are strangers they
will never recognize one another tends
to loss of self-respect. Only the in
nately courteous observe telephone man
ners; the rest of the world lapses into
something like primitive savageness
when it uses the latest resource of civ
ilization.-Court Journal.
