CANADIAN TARIFF
CONFERENCE HELD.
TAFT IN CHEERFUL MOOD, INDl.
eating SETTLEMENT.
MAY AVERT TARIFF WAR.
Circumstances May Warrant President
in Resembling the Maximum
Tariff Rates.
MAY AVERT TARIFF WAR

ALBANY, N. Y, March 21.-At the
conclusion of conference which,
with two or three interims, covered
practically the entire day, President
Taft seemed hopeful that tariff war
with Canada may yet be averted.
The negotiations between the Presi-
dent and w. S. Fielding, the Canadian
Minister of Finance, did not result in
either agreement or disagreement.
Many details remain to be worked out
and at this time it was declared that
the foreign official statement sums
up the situation "The President and
Mr. Fielding were in conference on
the tariff today for several hours. No
conclusion was reached, but the stu
alton remains unchanged"
Margin Of II Days LET'S.
Eleven days remain for friendly
negotiations" before the maximum
rates of the Payne-Aldrich law auto
matically goes into effect against
those countries that are regarded by
the President as "unduly discrimina-
tory" against the United States The
law is arbitrary as to its application,
but judicial powers are given to the
President in reaching a conclusion to
what coAstitutes undue" discrimina.
ton
Up to this time Canada has been
regarded by the Presidents tariff ad-
vigers ON the "unduly" discriminatory
list, and unless concessions are grant
ed by the Dominion government to
place the United States on an equal
footing with France and 13 other
countries to which Preferential rates
have been given under the Canadian
tariff, it seems inevitable that Canada
will be the one important country in
the world against which the increase
in the maximum American rates will
be applied.
Secretary Knox, without definitely
committing himself, held the opinion
that change in circumstances favor
able to the United States might war
rant the President in resembling the
maximum tariff

New Water Power Bill

Senator Wesley A. Jones, of this
state, has introduced into the u. S.
senate a bill providing for the dis
position of power sites on the pub
lie domain. Mr.. Jones has issued
a statement explanatory Of his bill,
in which he says:
This bill is suggestive measure.
If better one can be secured, we'll
and good. The bill withdraws all
lands of the United States valuable
in connection with the development
of water power. If the state where
in any such lands are located shows
to the satisfaction of the president
that it's laws fully guard against
monopoly and adequately provide
for the control, regulation and fix
ing OF prices to be charged for
power, and that they are not re-
quired in national development of
irrigation and navigation, then
they may be patented to the state,
with the reservation. however, that
the fee title shall remain In the
state.
Under the bill the monopoly and
unreasonable charges will be pre-
vented and titles to these power
sites will be kept out of private
hands, and the power can be devel-
oped under laws and regulations
passed by those entirely familiar
with local needs and conditions.
We want to prevent monopoly
and we want the consumers to get
their power, light, etc., at reason
able rates. and we want to keep
these sites from getting into private
hands. If any better method can
be devised than this bill provides,
we want it. The bill will entail no
cost upon the national government
and, II any revenue is to be derived,
1t will be secured under state law
and 60 into the state treasury.
The popular impression is that
power sites and power resources
should be handled and disposed OF
SO as to bring the largest possible
revenue tothe government; in other
words, that they should be used as
source Of profit. This is a mis-
taken idea. What the people really
want is the development OF power
and it's disposal to the consumer At
