ALDRICH METHODS ILLUSTRATED
IN TARIFF FIGHT ON SUGAR
AND LEMONS.

The 7eethods by which the cast-iron
combination under Senator Aldrich' 5
lead is ruling the Senate these days, Is
illustrated TO perfection in the results
Of the fists Ia -u.-zr duties on sugar
and on lemons. After the vote on
sugar had resulted in the expected vote
Tor Aldrich a Senator who had voted
with the winners said:
Don't imagine that I liked to do it..
I was convinced that the Dutch stand
ard Of color ought to be stricken out
OF the Jaw. I have no doubt of it, and
I think it will yet go out, one of these
days: but not during this revision. I
would have voted for the Bristow mo-
ton If my hands hadn't ben tied.
But I am here representing my peo-
pie. A Senator has to be sort of BUSH
ness agent OF his constituents; and my
State has half dozen industries which
absolutely demand the things we are
getting in this bill. I believe It is true
that to strike out the color test of sugar
would not inyure my best sugar people.
But the fact is that millions are being
invested in the State. and many thous-
ands of farmers are deeply concerned
and enthusiastic about the future of
the business; and they-the sugar people
and the farmers alike-belieVe that this

sary on good many things for me to
vote against my wishes and my convic-
tons, N order to take care of the peo-
pie at home.
That same Senator voted for the
higher duty on lemons; and he did it
for the same reason; the combination

and had to have 1t. There was a good
deal of the feeling which Senator Root
voiced about the lemon duty: and a
good deal of it was entertained. too, by
Senators who nevertheless voted for the
higher duty. Neither sugar nor lemons
could possibly have won but for this
combination according to men who are
intimate with the workings of the
management in the Senate.

TARIFF JOKER IMPOSES TEA TAX
BY PLACING A DUTY ON ALL
PACKING CASES.

That there is already adopted into the
tariff bill a modest little joker which
would serve to impose 5 cents a pound
tax on large share OF the Japan
tea coming into this country is charged
by the students OF that measure.
More than this. IL Is alleged that the
joker was inserted in the metal sched-
ules but that il hits tea
II is claimed that it will have the
effect either OF increasing the price OF
the better teas directly. or Of giving a
monopoly of the trade to a few great
importing interests, and driving a large
number of small and competing firms
out
Tea merchants all over the country
have recently discovered this alleged
joker, and their protests are now com
ing every day. Their Representatives
and Senators have been looking into the
matter, In the effort to learn how bad
is the situation, and what can be done
about It.
In the metal schedule was inserted an
item imposing a duty OF cents pound

CUBAN PATRIOTS ARE HAV-
ING A HARD TINE.

Cuba is in difficulties. The only
question Is whether they are Difficult
ties that can be overcome in the
course OF time Some of the ClIbans
are making a brave fight for the main
tenance of an orderly republic. Others,
more numerous than the first. are play
ing selfish game. In a land which
for nearly four centuries was subject
TO more or less official corruption, the
present situation cannot be regarded
with surprise.
We are told of "all sorts of immoral
schemes for raiaing revenue" hut the
critics who point to lotteries and hcens-
ed sports as evidence of governmental
recBiessness in Cuba seem to forget
that the Americans are not unacquaint-
ed with lotteries, both public and pri-
vate. and that laws are made in this
country. in some instances, for the
special protection OF vOraci0Us corpora
tions. We are also told of plan to
~5a,-r a few pIantatIsns and bring on
military intervention" as if such a re-
port could possibly have any deep eff
feet upon a public accustomed to read
ing about lynching parties and raiding
parties. Possibly the loyal and pro
gressive Cubans were shocked to read
about the great exposure of graft in
our customs service the other day, and
about a United States Senator ex-
changing blows with a newspaper man
in the very Capitol of the country over
an issue involving personal integrity
and genuine patriotism; but we haven't
heard any Cubans suggest that om
/ country is in need of Intervention.
We repeat that the Cuban situation
Is full OF difficulties. But it does not
appear to be hopeless. Governor Ma
goon's statement on the last genera
election on the island was cheerful anC
complimentary. There Is good reason
to believe. indeed. that things would
soon turn out all right for the little
republic if the leading patriots haC
better support at home and more hon
est sympathy abroad

CAMPAIGNS UNDER WAY
FOR APPOINTMENTS ON
COMMITTEES.

Speaker Cannon is just now the most
courted man in public life The poll
ticians have been making the discovery
that President Taft doesn't respond very
well TO appeals; he is apt to make ap-
pointments and such like about as he
pleases. But the Speaker, wlgo next De-
cember viii have the making of the
whole committee list OF the House. is
very much desired by statesmen with
ambitions
Thus there is some little rivalry in
the matter of the chairmanships of the
great Committee of Interstate Com
merce. Mr.. Wanger Of Pennsylvania is
the ranking man. and by mere seniority
would get the place. Moreover he is Of
the Cannon type of thought and atti-
tude on the questions involved.
But right down the list is the name

ENGHSHMEN WILL SEE A NEW
DANGER FROM GERMANY.

The 9O0-mile fight of Count Zeppe
lin in his dirigible balloon, which will
be regarded in this country as a unique
feat in aeronautics, will be viewed in
another and far more serious light
abroad Every development on land
on sea or in the air which adds to one
country's power to do damage to an
other in case of war sends cold shivers
down the back of some other nation.
England has barely recovered from
panic over Germany's shipbuilding
program Every Briton thinks first of
the sea, and when he sees his country's
supremacy contested in that element
he Is in a passion to build ships, and
then more ships. In the last six months
Englishmen of standing and influence
have more than limited that Great Brit
ain should strike while she has the
upper hand of Germany They talk
abou5 war as if it were certain to
come as soon as Germany thinks she
can safely risk it. To great many
Englishmen, therefore, the showing
made by the Zeppelin airship IS much
more significant than that made by the
Wrights. The one can carry a score of
men with ammunition enough to do an
enormous amount of damage.
This latest demonstration of its
speed and of its ability to remain in
the air for over forty hours on a
stretch (even if it does run into a
tree) viii strike the Imagination of
Englishmen with new sense of danger
and viii convince them once more that
their great rival IS steadily preparing
Cor the death graphic which many of
