SECRET METHODS In
TARIFF MAKING

An Eastern writer, pointing ont the
manner i'll which the present tariff bill
is being enacted says:
For the Finance Committee to in
vestisate the vast subject of whole
sale and retail prices of commodities,
as Senator Aldrich has consented to do
on Senator Cores suggestion. if thor.
nughly done would be an endless task.
Obviously the work cannot DE begun
until the pending Tariff bill is out of
the way.
"As Il matter of truth, the Finance
Committee has not investigated even
the matter Of the difference between
the cost Of production ut home and
abroad to equalize which the Chicago
platform declared to be the true prin-
ciplc of protection. On the contrary.
the Aldrich method has been to take
the customary shortcut and ask tho
benciciarics. Of. Dingleyi,m what pro-
~tective duties they want, including
guaranteed profits.
The Finance Committee has iron.
bled itself To produce next TO no evil
dencc i'll support of it schedules, and
that little all from one side. Instead of
an honest revision arrived after search
ing investigation and designed to reduce
the excessive cost of living, the country
gets from Senator Aldrich's COMMITTEES
Il partial arrangement of schedules
which is merely the measure of the
greed of special interests and of the
audacity of standpatters who purpose
r~epudiating their party's pledges.
Publicity isan imperative condition
of any sincere attempt to examine into
the cost of production. There should
be open sessions where all parties can
be heard. not secrecy for sidc-door cal.
lcrs. y manufacturer should he lust
as much required to support his de.
inands for tariff protection by produc.

"FEBBLE FOLK"

OF the comment of Ex.President
Roosevelt regarding w. J. Bryan and
Tolstoy, the ideal Of the great Russian
people, the Commoner says:
"'TolstOy has incurred the wrath of
Ex.President Roosevelt by saying that
Bryan represented the party of peace"
III the last campaign, and the mighty
hunter pauses long enough TO al.
minister a rebuke to the Russian philos-
ophcr. He says that Tolstoy has
swayed only The feeble folk and the
fanatic folk" There, now lei Tolstoy
wipe the blood off his face and take a
back seat.
mo wonder Mr.. Roosevelt does not
like Tolstoy-thcy represent opposite
schools of thought. Mr.. Roosevelt is
the exponent of the brute force idea
with him man is an animal and must
be ready to kill any other animal that
opposes his plans. With Tulstoy man
is the spiritual agent of God and is
bound to observe spiritual laws.
"Mr. Roosevelt thinks man would
degenerate without an occasional op.
portunity for blood letting; Tolstoy
believes that love is greater than force
and that man is ennobled by accepting
love AZ the controlling principle of life.
Naturally Mr.. Roosevelt thinks that
the world a be scared into peace
when ornaments become great enough
TO make each nation afraid of every
other nation. Tolstoy believes that
the spirit that leads nations to desire
big navics will lead them to use them
without excuse, and he insists that Il
good example will do mJrcthan a threat
10 prevent war.
This fundamental difference be.
tween Roosevelt and Tolstoy is not,
however, new. When Jesus visited a
village of Samaria and the people re.
fused to receive him some of the dis.
ciplcs suggested that fire should be

THE TARIFF AND THE HOME

Studious consideration has been given
the schedules eff Mr.. Payne's tariff bill
by Miss Ida Tarbell. AS usual, when
Miss Tarbell does something she has
something incisive and convincing to
say. She spoke the woman's viewpoint
at a dinner of the Academy of Political
Science;
What has the Payne bill done for
the ten or twelve million mothers bring
ing up q family on an income of a few
hundred dollars a year? . .
1t doesn't matter SO much whether the
head is covered or not. Bnt it is Of
vital Importance that we should be shod.
Our stockings have been steadily de-
creaSing i'll quality and increasing in
price. The increase in cost of shoes in
the last few years has been one of the
tragedies of orr working ome In
the last few years the price of the
s~torm-lubber has gone up from fifty to
sevcnty-tive cents. Mr.. Payne has
done nothing to clip the wings of the
rubber trust, for the duty still remains"
Around and around the country goes
the familiar slogan-''Tax not poverty
but wealth." 1t is incontrovertibly
sound, too, that slogan. But it sound.
ell too much like the theatric exhorta-
ton of the stumping d~cnagoguc. 1t
seemed inconceivablc that the peoples
representatives in Washington would
do aught else but draft and pass bills
that would Tax not poverty but
wealth. That is too obviously, too
fundamentally the duty Of taxation to
require this student r%eiteration.
But here is a specific and undcniablc
instance which Miss Ida Tarbell-not
the first to do so-has strikingly point
ed out. Here is a sober suggestion to
tax, not only the poor. Stockings are
not luxuries. Shoes are not luxuries.
Rubber oyershoeS are not Injuries. The
feet of the children of the poor must be
protected from the elements if their
health is 10 be preserved. And it is the
ten or twelve million mothers, to whom
Miss Tarbcll refers, who must buy these
stockings, shoes and rubhers from that
pitiful little income.
Stockings and shoes for four children
make sad inroads into the little wage
of two or three dollars a day. What
will the increase of 80 or even % pei
cent, mean 10 that family? If more
money must be paid for stockings and
shoes. less money must he spent fol
bread and butter. II is "A very simpl,
problem. for the income remains con
