RECIPROCITY is NEEDED.

The business community is keeping
a close watch upon tariff movements
says Henry Clews. Little legislation
is expected during this session of
Congress beyond passage of appro-
priation bills, although there is bare
possibility of a bill being enacted Gre
ating a permanent tariff commission.
The tariff situation is somewhat COM
plicated by the movement for reci-
procity with Canada; a movement
which is much more popular in the
House than in the Senate or with
special interests. II is possible that
President Taft will try to secure a
vote upon this subject before the ad-
journment Of Congress, and that if he
fails may call a special session for
that purpose The president should
receive the unqualified support of the
people in his present resolute stand
for better trade relations with our
northern neighbor. We have shown
our friendship politically with Cam
ada by allowing the border to remain
unprotected for years. We no more
need protection from the industrial
or commercial standpoint than we do
from the political standpoint. Both
countries are friendly because Of self
interest. They would immensely prof
il by a freer commercial interchange.
and the only impairment comes from a
few small or stubborn interests who
are quite able TO take care OF them
selves without protection. What 9TH
err nations, especially Germany, will
say remains to be seen. Possibly they
will claim lower rates under the favor
ed nation clause.

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.

A decision which has doubtless es-
capped the attention Of a large section
Of the state has been handed down by
Attorney General Kuhn 1t affects the
provision embodied in the constitution
four years ago prohibiting any legis-
lative measure from going into effect
until 30 days after the date OF its pas
sage by the house and senate. and its
signature by the governor, ex-
cepting such measures as shall be
deemed necessary for the peace
health or safety for the common
wealth Governor Osborn has been
exceedingly anxious that the pending
act to provide him with an investigat-
ing commission become effective with
cut delay and Attorney General Kuhn
was asked TO render an opinion on the
validity Of placing the commission in
power Immediately. The decision has
been rendered and is favorable mas
much as it declares that the legisla-
ture itself is the sole Judge of the
measures which are necessary for the
peace and safety OF the state. The
attorney genertl states that the SUI
preme court has no more right to
question the motives of the legislature
i'm deeming a law necessary to the
safety of the state than the slegisla-
ture would have to question the mo-
tive of the supreme court in giving a
specific opinion.
