THE JEFFERSONIAN

recognized tariff experts in the country, by
those who want the tariff left to commits
sion, are such men as Payne, Aldrich and
Lodge.
But Mr.. Taft will find his commission plan
about as popular as 'his best ever" tariff
speech.
The tariff is politics, has been for years
past and will be for years to come.
1t affects the entire nation and the people
will no more submit for the tariff to be taken
out of politics than they will consent to tax
ing government itself out of politics.
Mr.. Taft may have listened to the three.
thousand manufacturers who want the tariff
taken out Of politics when he was preparing
his message, but he will find very few people
outside of the protected manufacturers who
will listen to that part of his message.
No wonder these manufacturers want the
tariff taken out of politics at this time for
they have it adjusted just exactly as they
want it.
AS matters now stand, the manufacturers
are piling up millions at the cost of the COM
mon people, and they do not care to see any
change that will curb the legal system of rob
berry
AS to Postmaster General Hitchcock's
recommendation that a parcels post be estab-
llSneQ on some rural routes as q matter OF
experiment, the President says:
''With respect to the parcels post, I respect
fully recommend its adoption on all rural de-
livery routes, and that eleven pounds-the
international limit-be made the limit of car
riage in such post, and this with the view to
it's general extension when the income of the
postoffiec will permit it and the postal savings
banks shall have been fully established"
If Mr.. Taft had covered all of this ground
with the simple sentence, II recommend the
adoption of the parcels post on all rural
delivery routes and that eleven pounds be
made the limit of carriage of such post" he
would have recommended something that the
people demand.
As it is, his recommendation amounts to
nothing
Who is to say when the income Of the post
office will permit its general extension, and
when will the postal savings banks be so
fully established that the pacels post can first
be tried as an experiment?
Mr.. Taft's evasive wording of the recon-
mendation for parcels post will convey the
idea to the people that the President is recon-
mending what they need and want, but
second reading Of the paragraph will show
that it means nothing.
The need for a parcels post was never more
clearly demonstrated than during the recent
strike of the express drivers in New York
City and the New Jersey cities on the OPP
posite side of the Hudson river
For days thousands of people were incon-
venenced by the failure of the express com
panies to make deliveries, and not one minute
during the time the fight was on between
employers and employees was the convenience
or immense cost of the delay to the general
public considered by either side.

The new mOtordrome at WandaInere
is a success as far as automobile racing
Is concerned. This was proven to the
satisfaction Of some hundred interested
spectators who gathered at the new
track last evening TO witness the first
tryOut Of an automobile. Some half a
dozen high powered cars we're on hand
and a mile in 5S seconds was the result
OF several trials, all around the min

dent ]. @. Mcdonald as a passenger on
one of these trials and when II was
over Mr.. Mcdonald wonted more. 50
did everybody else who took a whirl
at the new game, "A mile a minute on
the Motordrome." Several of the local
dealers are now planning to strip their
cars to get more speed as the trials
proved conclusively that a mile could
be travelled in 40 seconds with safety.
Not to be outdone by the automobile,
Jake DeROsier gave an exhibition on
his motor cycle and turned off mile
in As As seconds. This is a Nttlo bet
ter than a second faster than the mile
negotiated by Whittier the day before.
Several amateurs were on hand with
their machines and n man who could

The speed exhibition last evening
was arranged for the benefit Of the Of

TEN TO SIX ON COAST,
BUT SHORTER At RENO

San Francisco. Cal, June 29.-with
the departure tonight for Reno of Jack
Gleason and Tom Corbett, the last act
i've link connecting San Francisco with
the Jeffries-Johnson fight was broken.
Before his departure, Gleason closed
the general ticket office which the
promoters have been maintaining here
and will re-es tablish IL at Reno.
Corbetts mission to Reno is to es-
tablish an official poolroom at the in
stance OF Tex Richard. who has named
him official betting commissioner fer
the fight.
Before leaving tonight Corbett an
nounced that the odds have again
heightened to 10 to s, with plenty OF
Johnson money in sight at that figure
He also said that as soon as he arrives
in Reno he VIII make arrangements
with the pool rooms handling the local
betting to maintain the odds in both
cities at the same figure.
Considerable money will be wagsred
here on the rObable duration Of the
fight No definite odds have been SET
yet, but Il Is likely that even money
will be offered that Johnson will not
stay twenty rounds.
