Elder Smoot concludes his article
with the following paragraph:
Democratic success means The lowering
oi our standard OF living. il means That
our worklngmen viii be walking The
street. while the foreigner viii be busy
ana prosperous making goods for tho
American market
In so far as Elder smoot means the
Democratic effort TO revise tho tariff
the reply can Justly he made that ne
revision which the Democrats could
make would create conditions worse
than they are shown to be in the tex,

at present in the United States.

INDIFFERENT REPRESENTATIVES,

It is not creditabIe TO the member
ship of the House of Representative:
that. as the dispatches say, "less thar
two score members listened to the acad.
emic discussion of the constitutionality
of the excise tax bill' as presented
by Representative Underwood of Ala,
hama, who is Chairman of the Ways
and Means Committee of the House,
and thus in charge of the bill which
provides for the taxing Of the incomes
of firms and individuals IN the same
manner that corporations are taxed on
their incomes.
After all, however, one need hardly
be much surprised about the discour.
aging fact although it is clearly a
discreditable one TO the Representa-
tives. One need not be surprised, we
say, because there has been for many
years very curious reluctance on the
part of Senators and Representatives
to get information. including facts and
showings Of the practical workings of
tariff measures proposed, when tariff
questions have been under considera"
ton. The Senate i'm 1909 keenly re.
sented the compliance of the German
government with request Of our State
Department for information on the
cost of production in Germany of va
rlous articles subject to tariff
Both the Senate annd the House ap-
pear to be resentful of the activity OF
the Tariff Board and the prominence
given il by President Taft, this re-
sentiment being, so far as any one can
see, merely because this board gets
facts and makes reports upon them
for the information of both Houses
of Congress.
A curious thing il is, indeed, to see
such fight to shut off information
and knowledge on subjects proposed
for legislation. The reasonable idea
throughout would be that Congress
would want all the information pos.
sible on subjects under consideration.

SMooT BEHIND THE TIMES.

In The Independent for March 18th
We find an article, 'What Democratic
Revision of the Tariff Really Means, .
by Apostle Smoot, ''United States Sen.
ator from Utah It is an article such
as might have been written on the tariff
question twenty or thirty years ago
when there was some vitality 10 the
Idea that the tariff as framed (say
under the Mckinley bilD was a real
help TO American labor in that it Sc
cured higher rate of wages for Amer
leans, than European or other labor
could possibly obtain. Elder Smoot
says "the standard Of living of our
laboring men is the highest in the
world,' which was true a great many
years ago, and is true yet where Amer
lean labor has its proper field and func.
ton. But it is by no means true in
the manufacturing plants of the At
lantic slope On the contrary, as has
been shown ia most startling man.
ner by the recent strike at Lawrence,
Massachusetts, where the wage scale
is shown to be on the lowest European
scale, it is idle to pretend that the
protective tariff as enacted in 1909 is
any help at all to American labor
Where wages arc paid as low as 81
a week along to an almost maximum
of So week for the mass of the en-.
ployees, il is idle to talk about Ameri-
can scale of wages. and it is idle to
undertake to apply the arguments
IN favor of the protective tariff as
fostering the highest labor wages and
conditions III the United States.
The old argument for the protective
tariff applied until the combines and
trusts made havoc of it, AS If is now
those combines and trusts act in the
double capacity of using the tariff alb.

STEAMSHIP INCORPORATION.

The San Francisco & Portland Steam
shin Company of California is now in
corporated in Utah. That it is a Har
riman corporation, and to be used
in connection with the Hartman roads
is evident from the makeup of the
directorate and officers; and the incor
poration directs attention anew to the
Importance Of steamship lines in con
nection with the railroads. and also
TO the stubborn fight which is being
made in California and in some degree
also in Washington, to forbid steam
ship lines owned or controlled by rail
roads TO have the beneficial use of the
Panama Canal
We have never been able to under
stand why this sort of fight shonld be
made. When President Hill of the
Northern Pacific and Great Northern
established his Transpnciic Steamship
line, every one reioiced, in the expec-
tation that it would largely extend
American trade with the Orient; that
vas. IN fact its effect. The steamship
lines OF the Hartman system have
also operated in the same direction, and
always beneicially. The claim that
such steamship lines are given the pref.
erence in the ocean freightage from
the trans-eontinental lines is probably
true And yet. it is also true that un-
less the railroad companies established
those lines, there would be no such
steamship lines at all
Undoubtedly the cause of the fight
made to prevent steamship lines owned
by railroads having the use of the
Panama Canal, is because OF the fear
that the railroads steamship lines

time.
Those who look through the haze OF
the years and think that what ought TO
have been the case was, in fact, the
case, are badly mistaken on this point
1t is true that after the nomination all
patriots. supporters of the Government
rallied TO his support; but there was no
such feeling for Lincoln, even after
his nomination, as would in the lea st
indicate the great popular approval of
him that every one now considers ought
to have existed
This distrust of Lincoln in his own
party made his task all the harder and
was a grievous burden for him to
bear. His letters show this, and
the history Of the time bears out COM
pletoly the proposition that Lincoln
had to fight not only the rebels in
arms, but vast army OF radical critics
and complainers in his own party.
We reiteratc that Lincoln would
have been impossible as party choice
at primaries in 1860, and we believe,
further, that he would have been un-
successful at any Presidential primary
IN 1864, could such a primary have
