The TARIFF BOARD IS
SOON TO Be ON SHELF

Washington, Mar. 1.-THE tarin
board has only a few more months
to live If democratic signs are true
On June 80 next the board probably
Will die a natural death, simply be-
cause the democrats of the house will
refuse to appropriate for its further
continuance.
According to its friends, the tariff
board has well expended the thou
sands made available for its use.
Democratic economists, however, are
unable to see wherein the tariff board
is worth $225,000 per annum re-
quired for its maintenance. In ad-
dition, the democrats, who now have
the upper hand in the house, do not
believe in the aid of outside agencies
in the framing of tariff legislation.
During the closing days of the 61st
congress an effort was made to make
the tariff board a permanent insutu-
ton. If the bill had passed, the life
of the board, at least for number of
years, would have been assured. The
Fitzgerald filibuster in the house
killed the permanent tariff board bill
SO now the democrats have only to
refuse to appropriate for the board
In order to abolish it.
The five members of the board now
draw annual salaries of $500 each
In addition there are several hundred
clerks and special field agents on the
payrolls.
1t is now known definitely that the
democratic house will refuse to ap-
propriate for the continuance of the
board when IL comes to make up the
sundry civil service appropriation
bill for the fiscal year 1913.

REMARKABLE INCREASE IN
THE INTERNATIONAL TRADE

The worlds international trade has
doubled in value in the last I . years,
and shows for 1871 a larger total
than ever before recorded. The bu-
reau OF statistics of the department
OF commerce and labor publishes each
month the latest available data on
the trade of each OF the principal
countries of the world, and in its
annual volume a statement covering
for tull years period the trade re-
turns OF a still larger list of coun-
tries. The number of countries that
are named in its monthly table is
about 20 and in its annual table over
90. In each case, however, ii is pos
sible to compare the trade OF any
given country in the latest available
period with its own trade in the cor
responding period of the preceding
year. A comparison of these month
~ figures which cover portions of the
year 1911 indicates that the trade
ior those portions of the year for
which figures are available shows an
increase of between and per cent
over the corresponding period of last
year, and, should this gain be shown
in the figures for that part of the
year not yet reported, the total inter
national trade of the world would
approximate II billions of exports
and rs y billions of imports.
These figures indicate that the in
ternational commerce of the world
in 1911 aggregated approximately
35l2 billion dollars, against 80 bill
ions in 1907, "a billions in 1904, 30
billions in 1901 and l61 y billions in

CHAMP CLARK'S CLAIM
FOR THE NOMINATION

Sentinel Special Service.
Washington, ID. c., March l2-The
managers OF the different candidates
for the Presidential nomination in
both parties are drawing tneIr INES
closely for the campaign that has
now been fairly launcned. Nulle
the friends of President Taft had ex-
pected Colonel Roosevelt to become a
candidate they were shocked never
theless when the former President
threw his hat into the ring" and
announced so vigorously that he
would accept the nomination. The
result has been a tightening OF the
Taft forces with a view to making a
determined fight for the nomination.
1t cannot be said that Colonel Roose-
velt's speech in Columbus and his
subsequent utterances in Boston have
strengthened him any with the Re
publican insurgents. Many of the
men in congress who were friendly
disposed to Colonel Roosevelts S can
didacy. do not hesitate now to say
they cannot support 4 man whose

politicians. both Republican and Dem

views expressed are generally that

On the other side the chances OF
the nomination OF Speaker Clark are
looming brighter. Many Democratic
members of congress are now assur.
ing the speaker that he will have
their support in the campaign for the
nomination. For several months the
managers of Prof. Wilson's campaign
have been making eXtrayagant claims
as to the strength of their candidate
in all sections of the country. They
asserted that the entire west would
be for Wilson, and that he woult
be particularly strong in the north
west. Yet information comes to the
speakers managers that the 46 in

WASHINGTON IN WESTMINSTER

1t is suggested by the British committee which
is planning a celebration of the one-hundredth
niversary of Anglo-American peace that memorial
to George Washington be placed in Westminster
Abbey.
The mere fact that such idea has been con-
ceived and is entertained in what may still
call "the Mother Country" is significant of the
deepening sympathy and the generous thought that
exists between the two great families of the English
speaking people.
A century of unbroken concord between England
and the United States merits such celebration. 1t
would be a browning act of graciousness and good
will; it would be a credit to England as we'll as a
rare tribute to America; for Washingon's character
and achievements were certainly the fruits of Eng
lish fiber and tradition.
