The Tariff Next Winter.

What will he the tariff situation next
winter. and what will Congress at the
regular session do about it?
Present prospects favor Sir Wilfrid Lau-
rier in his appeal to the Canadian cleo
torate on the reciprocity pact and if he
Is successful the pact will be promptly
ratified by the new government early in
November. In that event so much Of
our tariff question will have been settled.
But if Sir Wilfrid loses; if the pronounce
ment is against reciprocity. then Presi-
dent Taft's work will go for nothing,
and the matters embraced in the pact
will enter in some form into our gen.
eral scheme of tariff revision.
II the wool bill is vetoed, or the two
houses of Congress fail in conference to
agree upon compromise, such result
will send the wool schedule over to the
regular session, when the President Will
recommend action based upon the report
he will by that time have received from
the tariff board showing the cost of the
production of WOODEN stuffs at home and
abroad.
Likewise if the cotton schedule is We
toed. or fails in conference, and likewise
If other schedules fail.
The tariff question, then, is going to
be a hummer at the regular session, come
what may, now or meantime. 1t cannot
be avoided. The Payne law is on the
books, under the denunciation of the
democratic leaders without exception.
and under the condemnation of the voters
as expressed at the polls last November
by large majority. The country has
instructed for further tariff revision. and
the President is not seeking to delay
the work longer than he thinks is neces-
sary TO proceed safely and intelligently.
He cannot be convicted Of playing poll
tics, because the record of Congress at
the regular session on the tariff as on
other questions. will enter into the presi-
Dental campaign.
IL the democrats reject the figures and
suggestions OF the tariff board as then
presented, upon whom and what will they
depend for the material to guide them
in the preparation Of their new measures?
The sources of the information they have
recently been utilizing are not known eX-
cert to themselves. The wool bill, the
farmers free list bill and the cotton Oil
were all framed in secret. The repub-
lican members Of the ways and means
committee were not called in until the
work in each instance was completed,
and then only for the purpose of receiv-
ing formal notice of what the democratic
members had done.
The President may not accept as con-
elusive what is submitted to him by the
tariff board, but may consult with bust
ness men and manufacturers before maxi
ing his recommendations TO Congress.
That will be his privilege. and almost his
duty. But the boards work will be the
basis OF his study Of the schedules he
takes up. and the democrats will have
to be we'll prepared to meet him. And
when the issue is Joined between the
President and Congress-not protection
versus free trade, but how much protec-
ton Is necessary TO keep UP the Ameri-
can end of things-we shall witness a
very pretty struggle.

The organization Of Gov. Wilson.

The New York World asks tie question,

is not 10 say that Gov Wilson is Mr..
Bryan's choice for President, but ii may
be SAID with entire safety that If Gov.
Wilson is nominated he Will have the
hearty support OF tie peerless leader.
The case of Gov. Wilson is very in

Cuba's "Reyolution.' .

There is TO occasion to get excited over
the so-called revolution in Cuba. Nal
contents whose numbers are variouSly
estimated at from four to fifty have taken
the field and are now Scurrytns about
seeking recruits, with what success can
not be determined. The government as
serts that it has the leaders surrounded
and that it is only a question OF time
when they will be brought in and pun
ished On the other hand, it is limited by
the opposition that the government has
faxed up the revolt in order to make an
excuse for declaring martial law and sup
pressing a newspaper that has been at
lacking the administration. This claim Is
countered by that of the government that
the instruction is merely bit of stage
play by the opposition to impress Secre-
tary Stimson. on his arriva! in Havana.
with the unsettlement Of Cuban affairs.
Thus the situation is not at present to be
viewed as in any degree serious, while the
Cubans themselves are disposed to look
upon it with such light spirits. In all
proba bility this is merely a bit of mid
summer madness on the part OF Acevido.
who has suffered from relapse OF the
revolution fever that formerly ragged peri
odically in the island.
Nevertheless, Cuban affairs are not sat
isfactory. There have been accusations
Of graft and corruption against high Off
Gals of the government and some signs
of disaffection on the part OF the army
have appeared recently. 1t is expected
that Secretary stimson. will Be able to OBJ
serve conditions during his visit with ac-
curacy. and will bring back to Washing
ton clear view Of the case which will be
OF service to the government in its esti-
mate of the real significance Of such
happenings as the Acevido revolt. The
United States has recently. through the
Secretary of State, proclaimed it's dispo-
sition to hold hands off in Cuba. but IT is
perfectly we'll understood that this coun-
try will not consider itself bound to re-
main quiet il the island should be plunged
into civil war, with a renewal OF the
horrors of revolution.

were bringing him forward with the OBJ
ject of challenging Organism for 1912.
His personal and political relations at
that time were with the Cleveland wing
Of the democracy, and the popular guess
was that the Clevelandites. headed by
Wall street. had picked him flor their
purposes.
The Star wondered at the choice. and
expressed the opinion that the choosers
would be disappointed. 1t had no idea
that the distinguished author and edu-
Gator. would go over to Organism, but it
felt reasonably certain that he would
not play the game report said was ex-
pected of him.
But he has gone over to Organism.
Since his success last fall he has drawn
nearer and nearer to the Bryanite' pro-
gram, until he is now an eloquent advo-
cate of it's most advanced features. He
has publicly retracted all Of his written
and spoken arguments against the initia-
tive, referendum and recall and is ranged
alongside Mr.. Bryan himself in favor Of
those policies. And about other things
he shows himself in sympathy now with
the democracy Of the west rather than OF
the east. He has purged himself of all
that once gave him the entree to Cleve-
land circles, ard qualified for member
ship in the army he opposed in 1896.
But what about the World? Is 1t
going to Bryanize again? 1t did SO at
the eleventh hour in 1905 After con-
tending with Mr.. Bryan warmly for sew
eral months. and failing to bulge him,
it gave way and supported him. IL Gov.
Wilson, who Is thoroughly Organized. and
hoping for Bryanite support in the dem
ocratic national convention, Is nominated
next year on a platform written III con-
sonance with views he is now expressing,
will the World support him? He thinks
it will. 1t is the clear purpose Of the
Wilson boomers to play for MIR. Bryans
support before the convention, and after
the convention appeal if they win for
the support of the anti-Bryanites on the
score of party regularity What will
the Worlds reponse be to that appeal il
it is made?

Oklahomaism Run Mad.

From the New York World.
The judges. both of the Supreme and
inferior courts says the federal Con-
stitution. shall hold their offices during
good behavior" Bad behavior is deter
mined and punished through Impeachment
proceedings in the Senate. Senator Owen
Of Oklahoma was heard yesterday in de-
fenSe of his proposal to amend the Con
stitution so that a majority of voters in
any election may recall justice of any
federal court.
There is no immediate danger that such
wild proposal will pass Congress and
receive the ratification OF three-fourths
OF the states. Yet 1t cannot be treated
as joke or as wholly an academic folly
Mr.. Owen represents new state which
has already 1861 15j inhabitants. The
ra dical procedure he proposes is permitted
and practised in Oregon for the broWbeat-
ing of the local judiciary Recently a
petition was presented TO the oregon sec
rotary Of state for a recall vote on Judge
Coke for having demonstrated his gross
incompetency by giving to the jury
unfair and erroneous instructions as to
the law" Is the average citizen of Ore
gon competent to revise Judge Cokes in
depreciation of the law?

Grail in the Boston Public Library. is
a painting that knows no land or time,
and while it illustrates an English legend
specifically it is of a worldwide and
age-long theme. America is proud of
its possession 1t is gratifying to ap-
preciators of Abbey's art on this side of
the Atlantic that he was so highly rated
in England, and it was his eminence as a
painter that caused him to be chosen to
present first the scene of the coronation
of King Edward and latterly, unhappily
too late for execution, that Of King
George. Fortunately. Abbey lived to COM
plete his work for the new state capitol
at Harrisburg, so that America will pos
sess at least two great examples of the
wonderful composition and unsurpassed
technical skill and. above all, painstaking
historical truthfulness of this greatest of
modern mural painters.

Russian Intolerance.
'om the Philadelphia Ledger.


The refusal of the holy Russian synod
to allow the Baptists TO erect college
and seminary in the empire, and the fur
ther news that 1.-THE project of Moscow
has ordered the police to exercise special
vigilance over the attempts of sectarians
(the Baptists) TO inveigle orthodox Rus
slams from the state church, shed some
light on the narrow intolerance which
pervades that medieval empire. A coun-
try that forbids educational institutions
lest they undermine the state church and
establishes harassing espionage to dog
the footsteps of ministers of another faith
has little confidence in the sOundness of
it's own doctrines. and puts itself cen
tury behind present civilization. This
same country almost daily insults the
dignity of the United States of America
by insolently refusing to honor passports
issued to American citizens in the name
Of our proud and puissant government, yet
We keep up the pretense of maintininS a
treaty of amty and commerce with it.
