ALpR1cH AS DICTATOR.

A CCORDING to some reports from Wash.
ington the entire new tariff bill is simply
TO be dictated BY Senator Aldrch, of Rhode Is
land. No other person or persons are to be con-
sidered The Aldrich point of view is a very
narrow one and wonder there is a storm of
protest coming from the Republicans of the
West who are determined to have genuine tariff
revision downward. Their opinion is expressed
in the Senate by Mr.. Deliver, Mr. Nelson, and
Others Such leading Western Republican
newspapers as the Chicago Tribune and the Chi
cago Record-Herald are fierce in their denuncia-
tons of the Adrich tariff idea They hold that
the demand for revision downward is strong
as Aldrich and his crowd may find out.
Senators Dolliver and Nelson demanding
that the Republican party shall be true to its
pledges: that the tariff shall not exceed the DIFF
ference in the cost of production between this
country and abroad That is the true doctrine
of the protective principle and there ought 20
be enough Senators in the higher House TO check
the determination of Aldrich to keep the tariff
for the benefit Of the trusts. Our Delaware SEN
ators should stand with the Western men. They
should vote for real revision. They should
vote to prevent the paper making trust from
holding the consumers OF paper who are con-
sfituents of Senators DUPONT and Richardson by
the throat and cxtorting from them prices be-
yond reason And in every instance where the
conditions are like those in the paper business
our Delaware Senators should stand with the
Western Senators for a revision of the tariff
Delaware was among the first Republican States
that demanded tariff revsion-a demand that
has spread with great rapidity among the masses
of the people throughout the country

coMPENsAT1oN or MINISTERS.

OF late years there has been falling off in
~ the number of young men in the large col
lcgcs and universities who are preparing for the
ministry as their life work. Run through almost
any publication telling of the intended vocation
OF the Young men and you will find very few
i'm proportion marked for the ministry The
smaller colleges, however, have fair and often
a large proportion of their students who arc
ministerial candidates.
For the next few years most of the ministers
will come from the smaller OF what arc termed
the denominational colleges. But this does not
mean that they will be poorly educated young
men for it happens very frequently that course
in a small institution of learning is much more
beneficial TO a young than studying at one
of the great universities would be.
The small pay ministers receive as compared
with what is earned in other occupations is
given as a reason for the slight percentage Of
clerical students in the universities. writer
for Chicago newspaper finds that the annual
average salary of clergymen throughout the
country is only SS2s. The Chicago writer who
compiled the statistics asked questions of preach
crs and from the replies received the ministers
were classified according to their salaries as

Though this compensation IS comparatively
small, 81 per cent OF the ministers who replied
said that if they had to start life again they
would enter the ministry-that they had no re-
grets over the choice of a profession. Peouniary
reward would not influence them in selecting
their life calling. This expression of satisfaction
is indeed remarkable showing. We doubt If it
could be equalled by any other vocation. Prob
ably far more than thirteen per cent of men in
other occupations who had reached middle life
would say that if they were young men again
they would try some other calling and that they
believed they could have done better in a diff
ierent sphere
