Many of the common people OF Persia
would support this movement as they
fear the regency of Asad VI Mulk
would be little more than a Russian
protectorate.
The shah himself is planning and
hoping that the Russian government
would lend him the power to regain
his lost throne. He IS with several OF
his counsellors at the Russian lega'
ton. and is trying his best 10 enlist
the help of Russia.
IL is now plain that the stability OF
the new government depends entirely
upon whether or not II has the support
OF Russia. And the position of Russia
depends upon the tractability OF the
regent.
The Russian domination of the stu

Liakhofe, the Russian officer. in charge
of the combined force which is 90

looked upon as an acquiesence on the
part of the rebels leaders Ia the con-

and German representatives, here are

which the Russians are conducting.
They are in constant communication
with their home governments. The

ily guarded for fear Of an attack by

Power of Trusts Increased,

The truth is that the tariff has been
revised, on the whole, in the interest
Of the privileged beneficiaries who
ever since the days of the Mckinley
act have received the lions share of
the favors bestowed by Republican
legislators. There is not a monopoly
or trust in the United States which
will be made to loosen it's hold on the
masses by reason of the Aldrich re-
vision of the schedules. The majority
in cOngress-which, in the making of
tariffs, is to all practical intents and
purposes Senator Aldrich-have left
the consumers in the clutches of the
trusts. The strangle hold of monopoly
has not been broken. If it had been
the purpose of Mr.. Aldrich to give the
masses the benefit of honest tariff re-
vision, would the wool schedules of
the new act be what they are? Would
the duty on manufactures of cotton
goods have been framed VIGOROUSLY
in the interest of the manufacturers of
New England? Would the sugar trust
have been treated with such gracious
consideration?

LISTING THE CORPORATIONS
New Tax Likely to Lead the Admin
Istration Into a Morass of
Troubles.

The paradox of a tax by the fed.
eral government upon a privilege con.
terred by a state m up cOnspicu.
ously in the instructions sent out from
Washington requiring internal reve.
nue collectors to begin listing and
classifying corporations for the new
tax.
Under the law, if it is not knocked
out by the courts, every corporation
in the country must make its returns
on or before March 1, 1910, and an
nually thereafter. But how are the
internal revenue collectors to make
up their lists? What sources of infor-
nation have they, except upon COM
mon hearsay, upon which to decide
whether a given concern is a corpora
ton, a partnership or an individual?
The name on the street sign will
generally indicate the character of the
concern, but state and local records,
over which the federal government
has no sort of authority, are the only
sources from which the collectors can
compile their lists with any approach
to completeness. They can get a
list Of all the ncern incorporated
by the state of Missouri from the sec
rotary Of state in Jefferson City and
from no other source.
Suppose a state refuses to open it's
books to the federal agents? 1t may
be the possibility of such action which
causes Attorney General Wickersham
to revive the ~RoOseveltian proposal of
federal incorporation of concerns do
ing interstate business-a mischievOus
measure Of ever more doubtful legali-
ty than the taxation of state corpora
tions.
The constitution confers upon con-
gress the power only ito regulate COM
merce among the several
states" 1t gives no power to create
the agencies of such m and
congress cannot, through what Mr..
Roosevelt has called Constructive
Jurisprudence" usurp that power with
out placing a strain on our federal
system greater than it can bear.
The Taft administration has started
with a central policy which is leading
the president and his advisers into a
mOrass of troubles.
