Farmers go to Work on Road.

Desperate over the bad condition Of
the public road between this city and
McKalg farmers living at different points
along the road have left their crops and
are trying their hand at road building.
They believe time spent on the road
means better returns in the end,' notwith-
ing that this is the busy season on the
farm.
The cause of all this is the scarcity of
labor. Agriculturists all along the high
way have loaned horses and carts, and
wherever a farmer can give the time he Is
put to work. The county pays them at
the rate of $G.4o to SI.65 day. The
salary, however, is secondary to the de-
sire to get the road in shape for fall haul
ing.

The Tariff.

The tariff board has now become a mart
OF the tariff question. Mr. Taft puts
great store by the board, and wants it
continued. Mr. Underwood takes the
other view. To him the board spells
nothing, and lie would abolish it, or.
rather. starve ii out. If no further pro-
vision Is made for its support, the board
will die, and Mr.. Underwood opposes
another appropriation.
The boards work was ordered TO be
thorough. and that has given il the ap-
pearance of being slow. Reports on only
two schedules, wool and cotton, have been
made. But those arc important and COM
plcated schedules, and have REQUIRED
time.
What is the value of those reports

III Congress it is rated high. They want
action on the reports, and are ready with
bills based upon them. BY Mr. Under
wood and his friends the reports are

The Star feels that it has accomplished
much toward the thorough cleaning of
the city by having brought about the
creation of so representative a commit
tee as that which met yesterday at the

spirit this committee is all that could be
desired for effective work. 1t stands for
practically all the activities of Wash
ington. and The Star is confident that it
will accomplish valuable and lasting re-
suits not only in the actual securing of
the city during the week beginning April

municipal sanitation. The Star will CO.

A War With No Truce.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
Every five or six years the Misss-
sippi goes on the rampage and the
ella borate system of leveeS is in danger
Man builds necessarily and the Father
of Waters" tears his work down in a
few hours and scatters his mattresses
and other contrivances to contain the
flood and keep it moving toward the
sea. For 1875 years, dating from the
time De la Tour, French engineer,
built levee a mile long to protect
the young city of New Orleans, the
fight with the great river has been
going on. The problem is cOmplicat-
ed by the deepening of the channel for
navigation. According to a recent pub
LEGATION the United States government
has spent S70,00O.O00 upon levee and
dredging work from the mouth of the
Missouri down. The states interested
have also paid out large sums i'm leve
protection. 1t has been necessary to
abandon one estimate of expense after
another. In 1881 government engi-
neerS calculated that the deepening of
the channel for navigation and com
pletlon of the levee system would call
for an expenditure of $4,000, 900 Al
most twice that amount has now been
spent, and it is realized that many
years must elapse before the work is
finished, and regular appropriations
for maintenance will still be neces-
Sary.

Magdalena Bay.

Senator Lodge Is personal ana po-
litical friend of Secretary Meyer, who is
pressing upon Congress the necessity for
more battleships. and an appropriation
in the naval bill of this session for at
least two. Therefore the senator's reSO-
luton about Magdalena bay is. it has
been suggested, maneuver in aid of the
Secretary's appeal.
Such an Interpretation OF the matter is
current with others. 1t is at least
readable. and, if TO nothing more, testi-
fes to the keen interest felt in every
thing relating to the navy and its growth.
Friends and opponents of a larger navy
are alike alert, and every proposition
suggested by either is carefully eX-
amined by the other
Public sentiment had declared for two
new battleshtps before Mr.. Lodge moved.
The adverse action of the democratic
caucus of the House had made an I'M
favorable impression In several demo-
cratic strongholds. and in several states
showing democratic leanings for the first
time in twenty years, protests had been
registered against a Standpat policy af-
fecting the naval service, and especially
as buttressed by the unconvincing, and
almost absurd, cry of economy.
MIR. Lodge, therefore. was not by any
means considering discouraging stu
alton. He might have sat tight with
others, and looked with confidence to the
overruling of the democratic caucus by
national sense of the country's obligations
on the sea.
The question the senator has presented
Japan and Mexico, and on that account
is justified as separate proposition. A
denial comes from both Toxic and
Mexico City of the rumor about Magda-
lena bay. No control has been sought
been taken by Mexico.
Those two countries, and indeed all
countries, may see in this episode how
sensitive American sentiment is on the
subject of the Monroe doctrine, and
even on matters only suggesting it. Amer
ica is committed to it without reservation
or political division. Both parties sup
port it, and would go all lengths in it's
maintenance. 1t is stronger in this coun-
try today than when first proclaimed, and
much better understood abroad than ever
before.
The foundation for the violation of a
policy SO strong in the national keeping
could not be easily laid in a corner, and
certainly no superstructure of conse-
quence could be reared on such a foun-
dation If one by unusual shrewdness were
laid. Vigilance on that score is laid
upon us as duty; and where so
much is involved, all eyes are peeled
Neither commercialism nor territorial

mercialism can hope to get by with

poses upon which the Monroe doctrine

The Right Kind of Economy

From the New York Tribune.
In the economy MESA &c which he sent
to Congress, President Taft continues his
laudable crusade for the reorganization
of the federal service on a sound business
basis. More than any other President in
our generation Mr.. Taft has realized the
immense public advantage TO result from
Introducing system into governmental ad-
ministration, and eliminating the ineffi-
cheney and waste due to the traditions of
spells politics. His term in office has been
made notable by the checking for the
first time in half a century of tho steady
increase in federal expenditure. He has
done what his predecessors seemed to
despair of doing, and by dint of persistent
preaching and practice has not only kept
appropriations from showing an annual
increase. but has reduced the total for
191l-1" about y2J,Ho,po0 below the total

Mr.. Cnderwood's wool bill is based upon

something must be said about the extent
to which the policy of protection should
be carried. Solicitude about the Ameri-
can wage-scales is widespread and gen.
uine. American labor is a very impor-
tant factor in the political equation. Or
ganized and unorganized, it deserves con-
sideration. Both parties bear in mind at
all times the interests of those who work
with their hands They are entitled to
good pay for good work, and as rule
their pay is higher than pay abroad for
like work.
But the employers of labor cannot be
ignored. They, too, are entitled 10
thought. If there is not a profit for
them in the home market, their wheels
will cease to turn: and if their wheels
stop, wages must stop. If employers are
starved, employees share the same fate
In the matter of the tariff, it is impos-
sble to make fish of one and flesh of
the other. This years tariff planks In
the national PLATFORM, because of the
controversy in Congress over the tariff
board and the resultant differences be
tween the two houses, will have to be
drawn with unusual care.
