TEDDY AS "MR FACINGBOTH-
WAYS"

Wits versatility that has no ex-
ample in the politics of this country,
the lion hunter who little while ago
spoke for Senator Beveriige in Indi-
ana has also spoken for Senator Lodge
in Massachusetts. On the supreme is
sue before the country the position Of
tie two Senators is irreconclable. In
the extra session of this Congress SEN
ator Beyeridge stood with his Insurg-
.ent associates fighting Senators Al
drich, Lodge an dIale, of the Commit
tee on Finance, inch by inch on the
tariff bill. The Republicans of Indiana
have denounced the bill as violation
Of party pledges. and have indorsed
the course of Senator Beveridge. Sen
ator Lodge is one of the foremost de-
tenders of the bill in an elaborate re-
port in which he has undertaken 70
prove that the tariff has nothing to do
With be rise in cost of commodities.
All this Is nothing to Colonel Roose-
welt. The two Senators, widely differ
ing on the only political question now
pressing for solution, are his personal
friends, as he says. and may be useful
TO his ambition. That outWeighs all
consideration Of the interests of 30
100000 people in this issue. The per-
sonal end is what made 1t easy for
him to pose as a progressive on the
tariff in the West and go home to In
dorse the tariff in his Saratoga plat
form. 1t is true that he has repudiat-
ed this part of his platform; but SEN
atoT Lodge, w2om he supports, repre-
sents all that is reactionary on the
question before the people. It also
true that he has two links by which
he proposes to connect the hostile ele-
ments Of the Republican party. One
is the maxium and minimum device
which gives nobody else any concern,
and the other is a scientific Tariff
Commission which is going to ADJUST
duties for Congress in accordance with
difference in cost of production at
home and abroad In the meantime,
as the Philadelphia Record points out,
the masses of the American people,
to whom is offered this illusory jar
gon, are to remain indefinitely the
victims of a remorseless system that
is rObbing them, by manifold insiiious
processes, of their wages and savings.
In the immortal Pilgrims Progress
is Mr.. Facingbothways of whom Col
onel Roosevelt is the latest and most.
conspicuous type The man who Isl
capable of encouraging Insurgent op-
position to TIE Payne4Aldrich act in
the West and Of aiding its supporters
in the East might have stood for the
character delineated by Bunlan. His
gyrations on this issue before the
country might be regarded as the
merest charlatanry were they not made
a little more respectable by the per-
sonal ambition that inspires the per-
fcrmances."

ARE GETTING FIGURES
ABOUT EACH OTHER.
Uncle Sam TO Stop Leak in
Tax Figures.

Washington, D. C, Nov big
manufacturers in various parts Of the
United States wlo have been getting
information on the incomes of rival
corporations, as a result of a leak in
the corporation tax collection system,
will hereafter find the lid clamped
tightly down.
Lawyers in certain parts of the
country have been writing to officials
in Washington asking for information
regarding the income of concerns with
which they lave no personal connec-
ton. The theory is that they were
acting for rival corporations desiring
inside information.
Attorney General Wiekersham had a
long conference with President Taft
yesterday, and. as a result, regulations
viii be drafted to govern the giving
out OF information regarding the coll
lection of the corporation tax.
TIE chief objection to the passage Of
the corporation tax in Congress was
based on the ground that the filing of
figures showing the income would give
one corporation undue advantage over
others. 1t was said the President
wanted a corporation tax as a wedge
for controlling stock manipulation b.
corporations as much as for the money
that would be added to the govern
mentss revenue.
The collection of tie tax has been
more successful than was expected.
Moreover, considerable surprise has
been caused by the apparent willing
ness Of corporations to comply with
the law without delay. 1t is said the
corporations take the position that
they might as we'll pay the tax WITH
cut delay, SO that the attack on the tax
in the Supreme Court may not be pref
udiced BE- any show of obstancy. Most
of the big corporations believe that
when the corporation tax case is de-
cided the law il viii be declared I'M
constitutional ami t1ey will get their
money back.
In the meantime, according to the in
formation obtained yesterday, some Of
the corporations, through their law
yers, have been trying to steal a marcn
on their competitors by ascertaining
the amount of money collected from
them under the new law.

was passing today. That no one was
killed by the falling body was due
to a shout of warning that went up
when Lichaskis was seen to hurl
himself from the building.
The Greek had made arrange
ments for his burial, having depOsi-

cemetery plot. He gained entrance
to the Call building by saying that
he was an electrician sent to repair
wire in the dome, which is 20 stories
