The Public Utilities Commission OF
New Jersey decides that railroads run
ring to Jersey City. Hoboken and Cam
den must sell tickets to those places, In
stead of compelling passengers to buy
tickets to New York and Philadelphia.
That seems to be reasonable. Jersey
City and Camden have their faults, but
they really are entitled TO places upon
the time table and ticket schedule.

BY defeating the Brooklyn team
yesterday the New York Giants mathe-
matically "cinched" the National League
pennant. No power Of PERCENTAGE or any
law of the fourth dimension can now
take IT away The team which brings
the highest honors of its league to this
city is surely one TO be proud of. In as
hard a struggle as any year has Wit
messed, New York alone OF the clubs
which participated held the pace to the
finish. There is still one more honor to
strive for-the championship OF the
world. The New Workers will tackle the
Philadelphia Athletics, the team they
BEAT in 1905, for that honor Let us
hope they will repeat that piece of art.
The ambition of Mayor Gaynor has been
realized. He hoped that baseball pen
nant would be brought TO New York be-
fore he left Office. 1t is quite possible
that he will see another one next year.

RECIPROCITY MEASURE PASSED.

The long fight over Canadian
reciprocity came to an end last Satur-
day, when the measure was passed in
tine u. S. senate by vote Of So to 81.
an precisely the form in which it
emerged from the House, several
weeks ago. This is q great victory
for President Taft, who has persistent
ly advocated and urged the measure,
although his party has been badly
divided in regard to it. An analysis
of the vote shows that "a republicans
in the senate voted against the bill
and 21 in favor Of it, while three
democrats voted against and 80 in
favor.
Party lines were swept away in the
debate, majority of the democrats
supporting it while the so-called
regular" republicans were pretty
evenly divided and most Of the So
called progressives" against it.
THO bill becomes a law with the
pres dents signature and it will then
DE UP to the Canadian parliament to
give its approval before the provisions
of the measure will go into effect.
In its passage through the senate
she opponents of the bill had many
amendments which they attempted to
have made, changing tariff duties in
many of the schedules. but these met
with prompt and emphatic defeat, the
vote being from II to 81 to 90 to SO
The president was most strenuously
opposed to having the measure
changed in any way from the form in
which it had been agreed upon, after
extended discussion, by representatives.
aof oar own and the Canadian govern
anents. He also feels that whatever
changes are to made in general tariff
duties should go over TO the regular
session of Congress next winter, after
a report has been obtained from the
Investigations made by the tariff
board appointed for that purpose.
The president very earnestly
believes that the freer trade relations
between the United States and Canada

operation of the reciprocity pact will
be greatly to the benefit of the entire
country and this opinion is shared by

IT NEVER SOLD CALICO.

1t Was vigorously maintained at the
senate committee hearing or parcels
post on an average mail order prices
are higher than the prices of local
dealers. If this be the case under the
present system, which discrlminates
in favor Of the large shipper, what will
prevent the small merchant from
competing even more successfully
when he has the added facilities of a
parcels post?
Thus queries the Chicago Tribune,
and then proceeds to damn the c1un-
Try merchant for "illogicality" and
superfciallty" in bis opposition to
a parcels post, for not using 'gump-
tion, for not being alert and
enterprising enough to let his
customers know the facts - -,
1t is very evident that the mil
Aionaire owners of the Tribune, no
more than their writer's who are MAX
ing a butt of the country merchanr,
ever measured a yard Of calico or
drew gallon Of molasses in compe-
tition with metropolitan mail order
house. Ia
The country merchant is doing and
has been doing in advertisement, by
word Of mouth and through practical
demonstration, just exactly what the
Tribune asks him to do; he has let
his rural customer know time and
again that hu is selling. nine times
out of ten, better goods at cheaper
price than the mail order Highway
man.
Assuming that the Tribune is dis
interested in it's advocacy of a parcels
post, it shows its utter ignorance Of
human nature when it declares that
such methods can combat the lure of
the famboyant and cozening mail
order catalogue and the charming,
Gathering persona" letters anc in
ducements that follow it up.
The curious fascination OF doing
Gousiness away from home, which is
