| AN EDUCATION COMMISSION.
Tired as the people Of the state are
and have every reason to be Of ex-
pensive commissions, there is every
probability that several more will be
proposed at the approaching session.
In the first place the governor has
suggested something Of the sort in
his campaign speeches. He would
have land commission and an ag-
ricultural commission and a public
utilities commission to begin with.
Now comes the education Office with
a proposition that an education COM
mission be established, apparently to
do the work expected Of the Office of
public instruction. The superinten-
dent further proposes that the COM
mission shall outline "a legislative
program for adoption at some future
time. Moreover he would defer any
attempt to improve the education
system until two years hence when
it would have the advantage Of the
commissions suggestions. Many
people think there are some things
that would stand improving now. If
the strangle hold Of the book trust
could be loosened' the taxpayers
would not complain even if that was
not recommended by a commission.

White Lead Combine.

An important combination of the
manufacturers of white lead in Eng.
land, Germany and the United States.
when IS believed also to include the
larger manufacturers IN other coun-
tries, is reported from New York. The
coalition is believed to have been
brought about by fears Of a reduction
IN the tariff, the American manufactur-
ers having conceived the idea of Great
ing an international monopoly of the
white lead industry, SO they could con-
troll the price regardless Of whether the
duty on the article was reduced by con-
gress.
AS nearly half the lead produced in
the world is converted into white lead
the situation is of particular interest to
the lead mine operators of the north
west, particularly in the Occur d 'Alenes
where large per cent of the lead of
the United States is mined. The fol-
lowing table, compiled from authentic
statistics, shows the important part the
alleged combination of white lead man.
ufacturers is certain to have in the lead
market.
United Satisfactorily 100000 tons.
Spain-Nearly 100000 tons.
Germany-Nearly 100000 TONS
Mexico-Nearly 100000 tons.
All Others-About 100000 tons.
Total World-About 100000 tons.
OF the world's lead product, the Unit
ed States produces (and consumes)
about one-third, the tariff rendering
foreign imports impossible. Germany,
besides her own product, consumes a
large proportion of the Spanish and
Mexican lead; while Great Britain uses
up nearly all the rest of the world IS
product not consumed locally.
1t congress removed or lowered the
duty it would destroy the profit of the
American producers, without material
~ benefitting any others, except the
Mexicans, because the American pro.
ductlon and consumption being equal,
trade with Europe, after some initial
revival, would probably cease altogeth-
er. says the Wall Street Journal. The
only remedy for such state of affairs
seems to be this combination to raise
the European price to the level of the
American; SO that, tariff or no tariff,
the manufacturers Of white lead would,
remain unframed; the Americans Nv
