If the Republicans sincerely believed
that the government ought to guaran-
tee the profits Of the manufacturers Of
news print paper, why not have paid
over the money directly instead Of
guaranteeing profits by the indirect
process of a customs levy? The news
papers themselves might make up the
guarantee fund. 1t would be cheaper
for them. II they yer allowed to
purchase their supply of print ppaer in
Canada, or wherever 1t was cheapest,
unobstructed by any tariff imposts,
they could AFFORD to say to the Ameri-
can manufacturers of print paper:
"You may close your mills, and we
will pay you every year a sun equal
to you average annual profits for the
last ten years." The newspapers
would save money by such an arrange
ment. As Mr.. Norris has pointed out
there has been added more than Sc,
O00, 900 per year to the price which
newspapers formerly paid for white
paper. The newspaper Of the United
States pay annually for print paper
more than SIS, 900. 900, and they face
the prospect Of an increase Of thi!
amount by something like rs pei

Fond Of Their Gold Brick.

A somewhat irate correspondent
from Washington county in a lengthy
communication on the reciprocity
question passionately voices the fond
ness of the farmers for being gold.
bricked. We had supposed from re.
cent political events that the farmers
had got beyond their affection for al.
legged protective duties ON their prod.
ucts that protect nothing. But it seems
not.
Can our friend tell how on those
of his products where prices are fixed
by the competition Of the world a nom
inal duty does him any good? Sup
pose We take the only way in which
the tariff on wheat could either by its
presence or absence affect the price
Of that staple. Say that he with half
of the other wheat raisers Of this coun-
try should experience a failure OF his
wheat crop. Would it increase his
prosperity when he came TO buy flour
for his family to have to pay duty on
the flour or wheat imported to
make up the shortage?
He is wilfully blind who does not
know that on all our products which
produce an exportable surplus and
which is not controlled by a trust the
duty is simply a bait for gudgeons
AS to the particular exigencies In
which the abolition of the duty might
affect trade, 1t is just Is likely to re
suit in giving farmers of the United
States q market in Canada when tina
country has a short crop as the othel
way.
There are a few agricultural staples
of which the domestic production doe
not equal the consumption and there
fore there is some reality in the pre-
ductive duty. Such. for example, ar
sugar and tobacco. There was NOR

President at Fault.

Any congress which starts out with
an extra session, followed by the two
regular sessions, and whose lack OF
performance necessitates an extra e s
sion of the one following it, cannot
be a body which will be regarded IA
vorably by the public. But congress
has not been altogether to blame for
the unpopular administration. The
president himself has failed to sense
the restless and ~insurgentlike spirit
of the country, and allowed himself
the easy poise of the smiling execu-
tive. Whether this might have pass
ed muster in other times it Is folly to
inquire, but that acquiescence with
the machine leaders Of either body OF
congress, even Of the same political
body. Is not Endorsed by the people

PROGRAM FOR EXTRA SESSION
Tarin Legislation Demanded by All
the Varied interests of the
Country.

President Taft would naturally pre-
tions Of the tarif-except tho pro.
posed Canadian agreement-until the
present OF a larger and more gener-
ously empowered tariff board shall
have made reports on some Of the
most faulty schedules.
But the people are not in a mood
for delay in tariff legislation. They
want Canadian reciprocity. but they
want still more a slashing of some Of
the most outrageous duties imposed
by the present law. 1t Is the prospect
Of a more general revision, rather
than that Of Canadian reciprocity,
that has created unusual interest in
the extra session.
It is up to the Democrats to show
their hand on the tariff. They have
come into power in the House through
the betrayal Of the people by the Re-
publicans. The house that met in ex-
ira session April 4 Is the same house
that will meet in regular session in
December. There is no need for de-
lay. And II the policy announced some
time ago by Speaker Clark prevails
there will be no delay. The new speak
er declared that II there should be an
extra session the Democrats would pro-
coed to cut out the most fragrant
abuses Of the existing law, that no
preparation was needed for that task
and that there could be no excuse for
delaying the operation. And that Is
the truth. If the long tariff session o.
1909 did not sufficiently enlighten the
, leaders of congress on the principa
"jokers" in the new law. certainly the
operation and discussion of the &C
