Put Blame on the System.

Secretary of the Treasury MacVeagh has sound reasons for fixing fines upon smugglers and other violators of the customs laws instead of imprfson- ment. He does not thing that impris- onment is the better way to recover the losses of money in frauds on the revenues, or to punish those who con- nit them. Another and more humane reason is that the tariff system, with its exorbitant duties, offers such great temptations to violate 1t that offenders should be treated with lenity. When the tariff is reformed these tempta- tions will cease and with them there will be an end of the numerous prose cutions for smuggling and fraudulent valuations of imports that now occupy the federal courts.

"There's a Reason"

In 1910, we bought from Canada S47,333,148 worth of goods which are mentioned in the reciprocity agree ment. Part of these goods would be put on the free list by that agreement, and part would have the duty consid- ernbly reduced.
 One-third of this s4IOOO,0 900 affected by reciprocity Is lumber.
 Does that, perchance, throw any light on the wild gyrations of the lumber trust in its effort to pack the United States senate. and defeat the reciprocity agreement?
The copper era., 1911-10-06
lnconSi Stent.

The governments prosecution of the lumber trust is based on the theory that the alleged combination in re- straint of trade" has made prices un- duly high. It is, therefore, by the governments contention. an ''unrea- sonable estraint"-within the rule just declared by Chief Justice White
 The motive of the prosecution, is ad- mirable. But the governments right eous zeal to prevent the trust from holding up prices Is strangely incon- sistent with the same governments giving the same trust it's one gueat weapon of extortion-the tariff on lumber

Tariff and Privilege.

Senator Borah in his speech against Canadian reciprocity declared that he objected to the attempt to settle the trust question at the custom houses" which leads the Indianapolis News to retoTt:
 No man can help much in the fight against privilege who does not see that our present tariff-made as it was by the trusts-is a nest of prfvt- lege. If that is so. We think the at tempt to settle the trust question at the custom houses will nightly please the people. For the demand now is that congress shall impose duties, not as the representative of the trusts, but as the representative of the people. No people can be self goevrning unless 1t Is self-taxing. And no people can be self-taxing which per mits the trusts and the great inter- ests to tax them"
The copper era., 1911-10-06
Explanation Seems Called For.

The attitude of Secretaries Knox and Root indicate that a former chief clerk of the department of state did not pocket the difference between the $s50 that Albert Rosenthal got for his painting of Justice Day and the $2.450 he had to receipt for. But why should the department have re quired him to receipt for the larger ssum? It has an emergency fund, the application of which 1t is not obliged to disclose; why, then, should it have smuggIed an item of $1.6o0 into the payment for R portrait?

Mr. oIIver,s Lost Faith.

With regard to tariff revision, I will be guided by the reports of the tariff board on the different schedules. For want of such information no intelli- gent revision can now be made Senator Oliver of Pennsylvania.
 MT. Oliver stanchly supported and cheerfully voted Tor the Payne bill, being under the impression If not holding the conviction that 1t offered an intelligent revision of the tariff He seems to have lost faith in the wisdom of the ways and means com mittee that drew up the bill and to have become a convert to the omnis- cence of the new tariff board.

Not Really Hard Task.

It is said that 1t Is more than prob able that the committee Investigating the steel trust will make "an effort" to secure the attendance of MT. Roose- velt But no effort" Is necessary, since all that Is needed Is a sub- poena. Probably an invitation to the former president to come before the committee and tell all he knows about the steel trusts permitted absorption of the Tennessee Coal and Iron com pany, would accomplish the desired result A subpoena certainly would Why talk about making "an effort?"

"sURPLUS" NOT A SURPLUS
Truth About the Money With Which It Is Claimed the Treasury Is
 OVerfloWine.

The surplus which the treasury is showing at the close of the fiscal year is evidently affected by the sale of $5O'| 000,000 of Panama bonds. At the time the bonds were issued the treas ury had surplus for the fiscal year of about s11, 100000 against deficit last year, of the same amount This seemed to make the present situation S22, 100000 or $23 3,000,000 better than year ago. But the treasury has been making special efforts to get in the corporation tax, and has got in eight or ten millions more before July l than it got in last year at the same time, but of course whatever amount was collected before July 1 cannot be collected afterward; the process of an tfcipating receipts is similar to that Of deferring payments by means of which a favorable showing at the end of the fiscal year has frequently been se- cured. This administration has stopped issuing the monthly state ments of receipts and expenditures which had been published for many years, and it has introduced a distinc- tion between ordinary and ex- traordinary receipts and expenses which is purely arbitrary and serves to facilitate favorable showings for the ordinary" receipts and expendi- lures. In the past year the increased internal revenue about offset the de- creased customs, and there was a gain of about SIP, ,000, 900 in miscellane- ous receipts.

Commissions Do Little Good.

For a man of the presidents com mon sense and sagacity this confi- dence of his in the convincing quality of the conclusions of the tariff board will come to is quite incomprehen- -TwentY=nine years ago there was a tariff commission-all protec- rionists, although some Of them were Democrats. The commission recom- mended a reduction ot 20 per cent, and congress paid no attention to it. It has paid no attention to the work of the industrial commission or the conclusions of the postal copmission headed by Senator Penrose. It is no torious that congress does not take its conclusions from commissions, and the information obtained by commissions Is seldom better than the information any careful investigator may get from existing sources.

The trend is Democratic, and only Democratic folly can prevent it from continuing that way until Democrat ic president shall be elected. The Republicans, unassisted, cannot elect their national ticket in 1912. But an overdose of Populism in the Demo cratic platform or standard-bearer might enable them to continue in power.
