To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: Too true as Mrs. Wright writes IN
The Tribune Of the 11th inst, that the
newspapers give too much space 70 the
suffrage women" 1t is very refreshing 10
know there are some women, like Mrs
W, who dare to speak out in empha1lc
tones, with the true ring and motherly con-
ception of their duty and sphere in life
NO petticoat government by the boid'
AGGRESSIVE, turbulent destroyer Of peace
and harmony In the home life for the gen
tie. refined. dignified and contented com
panion of man. The home life of some OF
these agitators must be very interesting
Certain It is that these dissatisfied. radl-
cal women are doing great harm to the
home life. 'Tis pity, If true. that the
'.antis'' cannot get men of prominence 10
espouse their cause. but the article OF that
womauIy woman Mrs Paul Wright. Is
more convincing and effective than the
arguments that thousand sycophantlc
men can present in opposition

three times a week. III the evening, when
the clicking of the typewriter keys and the
other noises of commerce have ceased. the
young man brings out his trombone and
practices. In that part OF the city the
music str;lnge and attracts attention

TARIFF LEGISLATION.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir; From time t. time we see in tne
Taners heavy anathemas against the Re-
publican party for not keeping lis plat
form promise to reduce the tariff
The platform impliedly promised pro
tective tariff which should equal the differ
euce between the cost Of production at
home and abroad. That means If thing
cost 10 abroad and 20 in this countrE'
goods from abroad should have another
tariff 10-added 10 the foreign cost-io-
so as 10 make the cost OF the foreign
goods put down in this market also 20
the cos OF similar American goods
But this is not all. The platform prom
ised q reasonable profit TO American in
dustries" by tariff adjustments; that is, If
in the above example a reasonable Pront
should he another 10, then the tariff on the
foreign goods costing 10 abroad would be
10 for difference in cost of production and
20 10 allow reasonable Proht 10 ATnerl-
can industries
That Is the American cost being 20 and
the profit being o. and the selling price,
including cost and profit. therefore being
20 the tariff on the foreign article must
be %. which, added to the cost. 10, would
make the price in this market also Go
but this would not include any profit on
the foreign article and would be an abso-
Iutely prohibitive tariff. for no foreigner
could afford 10 sell goods in this market,
unless il was q mere dumping of trouble
scrne surpIuses, If he was compelled to
sell them at n price which would merely
give him back his exact cost plus the
American tariff
But the Payue-Aldrich bill reduced tar
ifs so that competitive imports rose amaz-
ingly over like imports under the Dtngley
law and the total balance Of trade in our
favor fell in a single year from s500,000.-
600 10 s275.6e0. coo. Evidently the people
who ''cuss out" the administration and
Congress for not keeping the platform
pledge belong TO that class who merely
think they think EUCLID.

HENRY HOLT EXPLAINS.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: In your columns this morning I meet
the usual fate of those who give inter
views when they cannot review the proof.
May ! impose upon You for space for a
couple of corrections?
7 am made TO say: 1--WE are behind the
rest OF the world in attempting to gather
our local taxes from personal property
England is fast coming to it as regards
local taxes" What l said England was
coming to was the collection of the ma
tionaI revenue from the land
7 was also made 30 say that I thought
I'VE are fast approaching the time when
personal property taxes viii be abolished
by constitutional amendment" I think We
are slowly approaching the time when We.
like Engend will take our first step
toward collecting national revenue from the
land despite the fact that to do so will
require a constitutional amendment.
AS l am writing. il may be worth While
TO improve my statement regarding per
sonal taxes in this city by later informa-
ton which happened TO fall under my eyes
soon after I left the telephone Instead 81
the personal taxes having. during my OBJ
servation, fallen from one-tfth 20 one
eighth of the whole. those assessed have
fallen TO less than one-tenth, and those
collected to less than o1e-twenty-fifth.
These latter facts I get from the nine
teenth annual report OF the New York
Tax Reform Association (No SO Pine
street,. which I recommend to the cOusid-
GRAFTON of your readers. HENRY HOLT.

PRrssIAy FRANCHISE PROPOSALS

PRUSSIAN FRANCHISE PROPOSALS.
The Social Democratic demonstrations
against the proposed changes III the
PrrlSsian franchise system are iniudi-
,ious and regrettabie, but not surpriS-
ing and not altogether without an APP
peal TO conformation. il not 10 sympathy.
They are inspired of course not ny
hostility to auy change in the suffrage
law but by disappointment and resent
ment at what is regarded as the gross
inadeQuacy OF the changes which IRE
proposed by the government. In their
view of the case the Social Democrats
and Radicals have asked for bread and
the government is Offering them q
stone
For years there has been wide
spread and highly respectable popular
demand in Prussia, by no means con-
fined 10 Social Democrats. for Il thor
ougL reform Of the franchise system "f
that kingdom which should involve the
abolition Of the "thrce-ciass" system
and the establishment Of universal suf-
frage with secret direct and equal
voting. The existing system has been
described as the worst in the world.
even by some of its supporters. and is
defended on no better grounds than
that it has long existed that d change
Ill il would involve changes in political
control OF the Diet, that the multitudes
who are now disfranchised are not So
competent to vote as the few who con
troll the elections and that the reforms
demanded would probably not be with
out their defects.
The government now offers 10 the ma
ton not new system but mere
modification Of the existing system. The
''three-class" arrangement is TO be re-
talned, but the classes are not 10 be de-
termined exclusively by the amount of
taxes paid. Thus important oficehold-
ers and professional men who are oar
ticularly well qualified to vote are to lie
put in the class above that in which
their taxes alone would place them,
while the voting power of milionair-es
is 10 be restricted by establishing a
limit beyond which wealth shall NOT
count. But secret voting is to be denied
TO the people for the reason that voting
IN the Diet is done publicly and all i'm
portant official acts are similarly per
formed, and therefore citizens ought 20
let the character Of their ballots be
known! Thus only, it is argued can the
consciousness of political responsibility
be kept alive and the education of the
people 10 political understanding he ac-
complished It does not seem to occur

ballot has been in use for many years
and yet has not led To the education of
the people 10 political understanding.
