MATTERsoN ON THE TARIFF.

Colonel Henry Watterson, in the
Louisville CouTier-JournaL pays his re-
spects to the Payne bill as follows:
The tariff bill which the president
has signed is 50 far from a material
downward revision OF the Dingley
schedules that we have the interesting
spectacle of gentlemen upon both sides
Of the argument busily figuring to as
certain whether the net results of the
extraordinary session Of congress bene-
fit or injure the consumer! In other
words, neither a mathematician nor
microscope can readily find the ele-
ment OF reform in the bill if there is
one. The law is therefore 4 substantial
victory for the subsidized industries. or,
to be palmer, a victory for grafters.
THE tumult and the shouting dies!
The captains and the kings depart! On
dune and headland sink the fires around
which camped the protected, seeking
additional protection. The consumer
who would know exactly how the bat
tie went may review masses of figures
which illustrate the well-worn adage
that while figures never lie liars often
figure. All of the bother has been to no
purpose. The interests came, saw and
conquered. Under the guidance of Mr..
Paynes ways-that-are-dark and means
that-are-vain committee and the fren-
zied finance committee, captained by
the astute Mr.. Aldrich of Rhode Island,
congress, raped upon the wrist, but
not successfully rebuked by the presi-
dent, delivered to the people the stone
that was reasonably to be expected
when revision downward was prom
Used.
"Aldrich chuckles; Cannon grins;
Payne wears the smile that will not
pucker and looks perpetual; the subsi-
died trusts rub their fat, oily paunches
and lick their chops, for the fat of the
land is theirs, as would also be the
kingdom of heaven If Mr.. Aldrich, Mr..
Cannon and Mr.. Payne were the gate
keepers of paradise instead of the lid
sitters Of congress. This is the result
Of the revision of the tariff by its
friends. How could it have been other
wise?
"A considerable number of persons
hoped that President Taft might prove
not only strenuous in reform, but also
bigger than his party and stronger than
his party's managers. However sin
cere, he has given no evidence of
strength to maui the recalcitrant into
Righteousness. He admits defeat, ex-
plains it. gives a feast at the White
house to celebrate it, and there you arel
The policy of the consumer be
damned" is expressed as the working
principle of the government under d
bill which suits Mr. Aldrich, suits Mr.
Cannon, and suits the venerable in
fants" 1t protects by Fleeing the Ameri-
can people.
Those are most keenly disappointed
who were most hopeful of results"

debt of obligation to that large part
Of the general public which has helped

no memory Of bitterness; they can re-
