The Tariff Record.

| In an interview Representative Clayton
| of Alabama is quoted as saying: The
record of the extra session of Congress
| is the record of the democratic House of
REPRESENTATIVES, and it is SO splendid
that it will be the great issue in the
campaign.
How about the record the regular ses-
sion calls for? The House must make
another record, either by repassing the
tariff bills passed at the extra session.
or by framing and passing other bills
representing such changes as additional
light and thought may have suggested to
the democratic leaders.
The country wants further tariff revi-
sion. 1t voted for that year ago. Mr.
Clark is in the Speakers chair and Mr.
Underwood chairman of ways and means
as the result Of such an expression of
sentiment.
At the extra session Congress and the
President failed to get together. What
Congress approved the President disap-
proved. The tariff bills were vetoed, and
the question Of revision virtually referred
to the regular session.
AS they did not at first succeed, Con-
gress and the President must try again.
Neither can afford to halt. The wool
schedule in particular calls for prompt
action That stands condemned by both
sides. Both sides have declared it to be
indefensble.
A most interesting feature of the situa-
ton will be the expected clash of statis-
tics. 1t may not take place, but if it
does it may prove very important A
battle between two sets of tariff tables
may stir the country more than any bat
tie between two political leaders ever has
done. Figures. like actions. may speak
louder than words.
The Presidents figures will be those of
the tariff board-a tribunal created by
Congress for the duties it has been per-
forming. The members have been at
work for some time. and have travelled
extensively in pursuit of information.
Upon what figures, and by whom sup
piled, will Mr.. Underwood rely? He did
not at the extra session disclose the
sources of his information. It was under
stood that he had experts in his service.
but neither their names nor the lines of
their activities were publicly proclaimed.
We should, and probably shall. be ad-
vised on these points when discussion in
the House begins.
The extra session is behind us. The
regular session is before us. And follow
ing that will come the presidential cam
paign, into which the tariff will enter.
What will the President recommend?
What will the House do? The country is
at pause for reply. The record has not
been, but is still to be, made. and there
are six months before Us for the pur-
pose.

Municipal Pawnshop.
From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

A municipal pawnshop is an experiment
In paterna ism which Cleveland may well
let alone for the present at least. There
are enough really pressing problems
awaiting solution to occupy the pubic
attention and the public purse for months
to come An act passed by the present
legislature but not signed by the governor
permits city councils to establish depart
ments for the loaning Of money upon per-
sonal property. Columbus either has
started such department or proposes to
do so Immediately. The matter now
comes before the Cleveland public In the
shape of an ordinance which, apparently,
will go to the council at an early meetina
with the Endorsement Of a special COM
mittee. No municipal pawnshop should
be established. The need for 1t is not
commensurate with the danger it would
invite.
