Taft and Cummins,

Recently The Star expressed the opinion
that the difference between the President
and Senator Cummins on the tariff cues
t!Qn was not fundamental: that II related
10 Glassifcations and rates rather than to
principles. This the Louisville Courier
Journal doubts. 1t associates the Presi-
den, with the high protectonists re-
solved To keep the bars UP as long as DOS
sibIe. and Mr.. Cummins with the anti
protectionists. resolved to lower them as
rapidly as possible. 1t separates the two
raen very widely.
The CourierJ ournal is in error. Neither
MIR. Cummins nor any OF the men In Sem
ate or House who opposed the Payne bill
may he quoted against the policy OF pro-
lection. On the contrary, all have repu-
dated a one time or another, and some
OF them several times, the very appraise-
ment the Courier-Journai puts upon that

concerned. Ii was not a fight on protec-

Public Documents.

The question that has been raised over
the illustrations In the annual report of
the District superintendent of street
cleaning might profitably cause general
inquiry on the part of Congress into the
whole matter of public document making.
Some years ago an effort was made to
reduce the volume of public printing, or
at least to render the product of the gov
eminent presses more valuable. Appar-
entity little was accomplished, for the
quantity OF pub. docs" ground out an
nually has suffered no diminution and is
little IL any improved in quality. The
illustration of the street cleaning super
intendents report seems to be subject to
the objection that there was no authority
for the enterprise and that the cost of
the work was borne by that official and
his subordinates. It. is doubtless unde-
sirable that official publications should be
produced in any. part at private expense.
and probably this matter will serve a
good purpose in bringing about read
justment. Any reform. however. under
taken by Congress should not be limited
to the District printing. but should 60

Wilson on High Local Prices.

Secretary Wilson'S talk yesterday be-
fore the special subcommittee on food
prices of the House District committee
furnished several points of prime impor-
lance to assist in reaching reliable con-
ciusions He declared that beef cattle
are selling on the farm as cheaply today
as twelve years ago If this is true IT
disposes of the charge that the farmers
are to blame for any part of the high
prices of meats. Next he asserted that
the wholesalers, speaking particularly OF
this city. decline to sell 'foodstuffs to or.
CARNATIONS of consumers seeking to pro-
tect themselves from extortion. Finally
he made the broad assertion that the re-
| tailers of Washington are making fully
AZ per cent profit. as against II and 70
per cent in New York, Philadelphia and
most of the other cities of the country"
The subcommittee is In position to
reduce the matter to fairly exact terms.
1t can easily ascertain whether it is true
that the local wholesalers have refused
to supply cooperative guilds or other or
ganizations of consumers. If this has
been, done it Is surely within the reach
of legislative measures of prohibition and
prevention 1t should be against the law
for any dealer in foods, whether whole
saler or retailer. to refuse to supply any
purchaser who has the money to pay for
his goods. 1t is within the province of
the wholesaler to fix a reasonable mini
mum quantity as the least allowable pur
chase, but it should be unlawful for any
established, purveyor of foods to refuse
service to any responsible purchaser,
without discrimination Is to terms or
conditions. .-.. 49,. ~, ...-,-.<
The charge that the local retailers ex-
act a larger percentage. of profit than
those of other cities broadens the in
quiry into a consideration of local con-
ditions as compared with those obtaining
elsewhere. Secretary Wilson seems to
think that this is due to the fact that
large. numbers of wealthy people come
to Washington and build palatial homes,
thus establishing a standard of living
above that of the average resident. This
should not necessarily be the case. What
ever may be the quality of the trade Of
a few purveyors of foods. there is no
warrant whatever lin other dealers in
creasing their prices or their rates of
profit. The law cannot very well declare
that no purveyor of food shall make
upTe lHoH q .CciLAIIl pcICcutdSc VI gain
on his transaction. But the lawmakers
can and doubtless will ascertain the
facts, and il 1t is true that the Washing
ton grocers and butchers are unduly ex-
tortionate the demonstration of the fact
will in large measure carry it's own cor
recton.
The Congressional inquiry starts prom
singly with. this authoritative statement
from the head of the department which
has a more intimate acquaintance with
the food question than any other branch
of the government The searchlight of
investigation may accomplish more for
the relief of the consumer than the boy
cott although the latter is proving in
other cities an effective remedy to bring
the meat distributors to terms, notwith-
standing the reserve supply in cold
storage. =

protectionism they would be at great
disadvantage. 1t would be impossible for
them to remain where they now are. For
to the policy Of protection the republican
party is as definitely pledged at this
time as 1t ever has been in Its fifty-odd
years of existence. When the insurgents
take the stump next fan to ask FOR votes
and give an account OF their tarin RECORD
in the debate on the Payne bill. we shall
hear them, to man. proclaim afresn
their faith in protection as wise and
necessary principle of government.
Tariff difficulties are no respecters OF
parties. They tangle up the brethren on
both sides Of the fence. We have seen
the democratic party come into power
pledged to its eyes to revision or the
tariff on revenue lines, and yet write upon
the books law stuffed with protection
for projections sake. The question arose
then TO plague the democrats as it dig
last spring to plague the republicans

Uses? In 1894 Mr.. Cleveland held one

other.
The Courier-Journalm may see republican
defeat next fall in the fact that the DEM
ocrats lost In 1894 as the result of their
divisions over the Gorman-Wilson bill.
But the two cases are not analogous.
The silver question, which was then vexa-
tious had divided the democracy before
the tariff question was reached. And, be-
sides, the difference between Mr. Cfeve-
land, who was free trader, and Mr.. Cor
man. who was a protectionist, was Tar
wider than that existing between Mr.. TAFT
and Mr. Cummins, both of whom are pro-
tectionists.

From the Century.

the
t There can hardly be two opinions as
to- the claim which the teacher has
upon any system that may be adopted,
whether it be official or private. Mr.
Carnegie's Foundation has made adj
mirable provision for veteran profess
sors, but compared even with the sma IL
salaries paid for higher instruction,
those paid to teachers in the common
schools, are lamentably Inadequate
These soldiers of the intellectual realm
often reach the gray age of service,
after years of sacrifice, without having
received a larger compensation than
that of an ordinary clerk or cook Many
a young woman, in the bloom of beau
ty and health. takes up teaching with
a fair and natural expectation of mar
riage. and, being conscientious, devotes
herself to the interesting work until
caught in the machinery of her daily
toll, she realizes, after many years,
that competent and faithful as she is
her resources have not been sufficient
to cultivate in her the best of which
she is capable; life has passed her by.
Every one knows of instances of hard
ship attendant upon such devotion %
the great work of training the minds
and forming the. characters of the
young. In contrast to this, the honor
accorded to the teacher in China car
ries both suggestion and warning.
