TARIFF REVISION.


K REPRESENTATIVE BOUTELL, of Illinois,
~ one of the leading members of Congress,
Is firmly of the opinion that the tariff should be
removed from partisan politics. Mr. Boutel
the other days addressed a meeting of bankers in
Detroit. and after defending the tariff law,
declared that we ought to do away with political
tariff revisons with their accompanying upheav
ais in the business world and inaugurate a sys-
tenn of tariff development by natural growth
In other words, he said that we should from now
on revise the tariff gradually by scientific bust
ness methods
Mr.. Boutell however, does not think this
revision can be done by a tariff commission,
body of experts supposed to collect trustworthy
information on all subjects relating to the tariff
He fears the views of the commission would
often conflict with the opinions of the represent
atves in Congress- Undoubtedly they would,
and there would be clashes.
Mr. Boutell. according to his reported speech,
does not suggest howfsuch a revision as he con-
templates could be brought about. He should
provide a remedy His position is correct, no
dnlht--B Before many days the question of tariff
revision viii be on the basis as suggested by Mr..
Boutell, but just how it will be done is the
problem.
Already we are having the i'll effects com
planned of by Mr. Boutell. There is said to be
a slackening and hesitation in business. One
reason advanced for this is that there is a fear
that the Democrats will carry the next House of
Representatives, and then comes fear of more
tinkering with the tariff The fact that if the
Democrats did win, they could not change
the tariff has not made any impression on the
fear mongers They never stop to reason. 1t
Is a wonder TO us that these business experts
did not predict a hesitation in business for fear
that the comet would strike the earth.
Although many leading Republicans have
spoken in favor of a tariff board and the taking OF
the tariff out of partisan politics. there seems to
be little sentiment Of that kind among Demo
Gratis. The Democratic leaders are not much
pleased with the idea of a tariff commission
They think they have in the tariff an issue on
which they can fight for years. Evidently they
believe that the voters have forgotten the eX-
perience of the country under the former efforts
OF the Democrats at tariff revision.
The Democrats may win another Congress
ional election on the tariff issue but the after
fnath will be the same old story-ncompetenc
on the part of the Democrats to enact satisfac-
tory tariff legislation and disgust among the
voters.

THE RAILROAD SITUATION

a Ii sorts of opinions are expressed about
n the railroad situation. Discussion OF
the railroads and problems of transportation will
increase from now on. Some newspapers that
represent the railroad companies are dlspleas-
ed, but they predict that heaven would descend
upon earth if the railroad men were per
mitted to run their railroads without interfer-
ence on the part of the public The walls OF woe
of some of these newspapers are ptiful to hear.
They are loud as the greed of their owners
for fat dividends is great
In Congress the railroad battle is raging. The
forces are lined up regardless OF politics 1t
looks as if the friends of the railroads were get
ting a little the worst OF it at present but they
are hard fighters and if they are downed they
will not stay down. They have been having a
great dispute over the long AMI short haul and
some other things.
There should be no such thing as long and
short haul The fact that there is water COM
petition should have nothing to do with making
railroad rates. A railroad company should not
be permitted to prev upon community simply
because it is SO unfortunate as not to have water
competition. Railroad rates i'm truth ought to
be like the sale of postage stamps by the govern
ment.
The transportation business is different from
ordinary business. 1t is a monopoly. 1t is in
the hands of big trust, the railroad trust The
railroad combine has the power to make or break
a business man If it chooses TO exercise that
power. 1t can reduce business man or manu-
facturer to practical industrial slavery. 1t can
force him to be a suppGant at its feet, if it so
desires. 1t is practices of discrimination here
and there that have caused the agitation against
the railroad companies, particularly in the West
We are going through formative stage in deal
ing with this immense problem of transportation.
The essential thing is that even-handed justice
should be dealt out-that there should be no
unnecessary harrassing of the railroad compan-
les At the same time the companies should
treat the public fairly.
The railroad situation will we believe work
out finally on the lines we have indicated. The
people are coming to grasp the difference be-
tween business like railroading, which by its
very nature is monopolistic and other occupa-
tons which are competitive, and they will be
dealt with in a different manner.

FINED AS A sMUGGLER.

II HE confession of former Governor Rollins,
h of New Hampshire who pleaded guilty to
charge of smuggling and paid fine of $4,000,
IS considered feather in the cap OF Collector
Loeb who is administering the affairs of the
customs office in New York on new lines
Mr.. Loeb declared not long ago that the Gus
toms laws must be observed by the rich and the
poor alike. The Collector could not have found
a more shining example for punishment than
Rollins. He is an arstocratic Boston banker,
the originator of the "old home" movement; the
son of a former United States Senator. and
rich man. Yet he has been placed in the humili-
ating position of being violator of the customs
laws, a mean smuggler.
The fact that Rollins was caught in the gov
ernment net raises a suspicion that others OF
high position have been evading the customs
laws. thereby cheating the government
1t is to be regretted that the punishment of
Rollins was not more severe When men of his
stamp break the laws, what ~can be said of the
ordinary man who is a law violator?
