Congress may not be able to
change the tariff rates as much
as some people desire. because
the President will interpose a
veto. And rightly, for there is
an sxpsnsiRs Tariff eammisa;On
at work Investigating thingswith.
the view of helping Congress to
pass a scientific tariff measure.
The Congress ought to wait for.
the report of that commission be-
fore trying to adjust things.
Is it not highly desirable that
the tariff question should be TAX
en- out of party politics? We need
to establish a national system of
collecting revenue rather than a
Marty scheme. And this was the
' purpose in appointing the tariff
commission. Pity the low tariff
advocates could not wait a little
longer.
We presume that at the regu-
lar session Of Congress the tariff
will be materially changed. The
Democrats are in for it, so are
the insurgent Republicans, and
apparently the country at large
is favorable thereunto. The pre-
sent high tariff system has been
in vogue since 1861, except dur
ing the second term of Grover
Cleveland. That was a low tar
iff period and a disastrous onete
Nthe country.
We are coming to it again.
Fortunately, the Democratic
chairman Of the Ways and Means
committee is a man of common
sense and experience. He will
keep his party from attempting |
extreme measures and thereby
bring about reaction.
W. j. Bryan has been ctiticiz-
ing the chairman for retaining |
too much protection. The erst-
while leader Of Democracy wants
free trade in wool, and. in fact, |
in everything else. but Under |
wood is too wise to hearken to
Bryan.
II Bryan had his way another
period of depression and COM
mercial losses would be on hand
speedily. We cannot make such |
abrtRt changes without entailing
losses and hard times. Chair
man Underwood appreciates all
this and hence, proposes gradu-
al changes in the tariff rates, j. e.
he does not propose to Jump from
high protection to free trade.
The country is not prepared for
It.
And yet, low tariff is bound
to prevail in the near future.
High protection has done its
work in this country, It has gi-
ven expansion Of business, great
prosperity, high salaries. big wa
ges. enormous wealth, extraya-
gance, luxury. and much waste
fulnsss. MiIliOhaires and even
multi-milliOnaires have been
greatly multiplied since 1881.
Perhaps we have had too much
Of this. A touch Of adversely
may prove aalutary. Allow tariff
win slacken the race.

a RAILROAD POSSIBILITY.
CFrom the Montpelier Journal.


The journal discussed the other day
some of the possibilities OF railroad
route from the asbestos region through
Morrisvile to Waterbury. \ survey now
being made indicates that another rail-
road project is under consideration. This
Is the building of a link that shall con-
meet the Wells River ard s. Johnsbury
and Lake Champlain roads. both of which
now form a part of the Boston " Maine
system.
The shortest route Is that between
Marshfield and Hardwick. distance of
ABOUT = miles. Heavy grades, however,
would be encountered on this route and
it is considered 10y some persons that it
would be more feasible to build from
plainfied to Hardwick. a distance of 10
10 Is miles over which route the grades
are better. This would pass through Ca
ais. making possible the development of
Cood deposits of granite. through Wood
