The National tribune., 1911-03-09

Summer or Autumn. The selection of
theT committees is the first matter to
derfsbd t}id attention of himself and
his Democratic colleagues OF WAYS and
Means. but in the meantime certain
members of the committee win buckle
to 5txrif Dseparations. AS Chairman
Underwood is conceded to be the best
inf2rmedI Democrat or the committee
in tariff matters by far. he is likely to
bestow his energies much upon the re-
vison bill or bills from now on and
leave the heft of king
work upon others. 1t would be little
surprise if he and Speaker Clark gave
thee ost of their time during March to
tariff revision matters.
1872 The Tariff Program.
Apparently Speaker Clark is to keep
his hands entirely off the making Of
committees. He said positively before
the committee was appointed that he
intended to do so. He wished either TO
have all the responsibility in that con-
nection or none at all. Very likely the
members of the Committee on Commit
tees will consult him, but if they do and
he consents to eypresS-~his opinion it
VIII all be done in very private way.
When it comes TO shaping the tariff
program and framing tariff bills, how
ever the new Speaker can more prop
erly take an active part. He has served
for ruInber of years as Il member of
the Ways and Means Committee, and
for the last two years has been the first
minority member thereof. He partici-
pated as member of the minority of
the committee in the consideration of
the Payne tariff bill. During the recent
session he took a conspicuous part in
the hearings upon the Mccall Canadian
reciprocity bill. Now, apart from his
position as Speaker and his responsible
ity for the successful conduct of the
House. he can be of no small assistance
in getting the new tariff legislation into
form, especially wher- the time is so
brief, and the Democrats at best will be
hard pressed to get that legislation be-
fore the House and the country at a
seasonable date.
The President has no control over the
matters which the House or Senate
shall consider in extra session. He has
named Canadian reciprocity in his ppoc-
lan,ation as the reason for calling Con-
gress together. The House can, if its
Democratic leaders so decree. decline to
consider Canadian reciprocity at all
The Presidents only recourse would be
to hold Congress in session till such
bill was disposed of, and he could do
that only by issuing another call for an
extra session.

yerely with imprisonment any offense
of this character between such persons.
This has made so unbearable the posi-
tons of hundreds of QuadroonS and
octoroons that they have sought the
shelter of other parts of the country,
where their bar sinister would not be
suspected. This recent discovery has
indeed been tragic one, not only for
the family Immediately concerned, but
for other families in putting under sus-
picion many hitherto regarded as white
beyond question, and has sent large
numbers to the records, which are in
a remarkable state of preservation.
THE case of Mrs. Maldwin Drum
mond, who was recently robbed of
some $685. 900 worth of pearls and
diamonds while on shipboard, has re-
vealed to many people rather inter-
esting condition. 1t will be remember
ed that Mrs. Drummond, formerly Mrs.
Marshall Field, Jr, of Chicago, was re-
turning to America, and the day be-
fore her arrival her stateroom was en-
tered and her jewels taken Altho the
most rigid examination was made, not
only by the ships officers. but by the
Custom House officials, nothing was
found. Now it seems a robbery COM
mitted on the high seas is treated quite
from the same offense on
land. Had the jewels been found by
the Customs House inspectors on any
person who. crossed on that ship, in
any capacity, the thief would have been
held for smuggling, and not for lar
ceny. And another interesting point is
this: A robbery committed OF shipboard
falls under the jurisdiction of the coun-
try whose flag the ship flies, unless
within three miles of the coast of an
other country. In this instance it was
steamer Of the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS., Line
on which Mrs. Drummond was cross
ing, and one of the first things TO as
certain is whether her case comes under
the laws of this country or Germany,
tho, to be sure, that will not aid her
particularly in finding her lost treasures.
