Without Pamperlnp.

The Star quoted yesterday from a
Texas sheepowner who said that II
congress was going to put wool and
mutton on the free list the sheep men
were going TO have to change their
way of raising sheep. That is, the
tariff would enforce efficiency.
The same principle has emerged In
connection with the California citrus
fruit growers. When they found they
couldn't swerve the determination Of
congress to cut he\duties. one Of the
growers spoke up at conference at
Washington and said: II guess there's
nothing for us to do except to make
economies in production and distri-
button"
There are a lot of pampered indus
tries in the United States that have
assumed they couldn't live without the
tariff. They are going to find that
they can get on all right II they will
conduct their business efficiently

reIllna Their Dreams.

Attacks in the senate on the Under
wood tariff bill prove that the stand
patter of today, like the Bourbon Of
old, forgets nothing and learns moth
ing.
Senators like Smoot can not forget
that there was a time when the in
terests" controlled every department
of government at Washington; and
they can not learn that that day is
over They maunder on, reciting the
time dishonored patter Of tariff takers
for two generations, pleading for a
board of experts" bewailing the as
sault on our infant industries" fully
persuaded that If they yammer long
enough the nation will reverse its
twice repeated demand for tariff re-
vision and return the old guard to
power.
If the standpatters did not insist on
telling their dreams on the nations
time, one might almost feel sorry
for them.

The currency bill admittedly is
still only "a basis Of legislation"
Searching criticism, II non-partisan
and competent, will be welcomed.
But as to essentials the sooner an
agreement is reached the better for
industry and commerce, the better for
national prosperity and stability. The
time has come to endeavor to evolve
a satisfactory compromise and waive
minor differences. The time has come
to take forward step and think
constructively and practically.

Name Likely to Go Begging.

II the Republican party should
adopt the name Of Conservative 1t
would abandon to the Progressives a
political trade mark nearly sixty
years old, and until last year a val
liable asset. Yet 1t is doubtful II
Mr.. Roosevelt's party would care to
adopt 1t. They are fond of the name
Progressive, and regard 1t as thor
oughly descriptive of their purposes
and methoda/ and, having denounced
the Republican party as they did last
year, they might feel a little shy
about picking up the discarded label.

TARIFF COMES FIRST
Most important Matter Now Be-
fore the Country.
With Real Chance to End the Long
Sway Of Ubiquitous Lobbyists,
Attention Of Voters Must Con-
centrate on Measure.

Don't get so interested In the Mex
lean crisis that you forget the tariff
bill now pending in the United States
senate. That would be bad politics
and worse sense.
The tariff now in force-the Aldrich
LAWS the perfect fruit of half Q
century of vicious lobbying. 1t costs
American consumers not less than
$4,000, 900 ,000-two thousand million
dollars-per year. OF this sum, about
one-seventh goes into the national
treasury; the rest goes to trusts.
The present tariff has bred labor
crushers like the steel trust, short
weight thieves like the sugar trust,
and a whole brood of bloated mag
mates who claim the right to tax the
American people for the benefit OF a
clique of protected" manufacturers
1t has created and still maintains the
most ubiquitous lobby that ever work
ed to thwart the will of free people.
The Underwood bill is the first
hopeful attempt since the Civil war

the whole people. 1t is the first
promising effort to end graft which
has grown up through two careless
generations. 1t will pass II the Amer
lean people keep their eye on 1t, and
demand that their verdict rendered at
the elections of 1912 be carried into
effect II the people turn aside to
chase rainbows or firecrackers, the
bill is likely to be talked to death by
1eather-lunged champions Of privilege,
or to be filled with jokers that lessen
or destroy its usefulness.
1t is important to end the regime
OF anarchy south of the Rio Grande
but 1t is yet more important to have
done with invisible government" and
licensed robbery at home. Keep your
eye on the tariff bill.

naval academy at Annapolis finds its
authority here. Every captain am
bilious to get command of a squadron
must look to this bureau for promo

Ruler of 100000 People.
Over in the sister branch of the mill
tary service sits another man who has
a very human work to perform in that
he is the virtual ruler of 100000
people. This individual is Brigadier
General Frank Mcintyre, chief Of the
bureau of insular affairs, and there
fore charged with the active control
of all matters pertaining to the gov
eminent of the peoples of the Philip
pines and Porto Rico.
General Mcintyre is not as new to
his task as some Of the men herein
mentioned, as he came to it through
many campaigns in the Philippines
and by work In the bureau under Cen
eral Edwards, its former chief. His
task is an immense one, as the bu-
reau of insular affairs Is attempting
for one thing to perform the miracle
of molding into one homogeneous
whole the so chaotic tribes, speaking
as many dialects, holding to many re-
ligions, harboring many animosities
and unenlightened as to civilized liv'
ing, who go to make up the popula-
ton of the Philippines

John Burke three times governor
Of the great state Of North Dakota,
is the guardian of the greatest aggre-
CATION of actual money that has ever
been gotten together in the history Of
the world. He is the new treasurer
of the United States, and this govern
ment ia the possessor of more wealth
than any other institution since Adam
The other day he signed receipt for
81, 426, 422, 051. AS 2-3. Nobody can think
of billion and half of actual money
and comprehend what the amount ac-
tually means But that is the amount
in actual money in the treasury at
Washington that the retiring treas
urer Of the United States turned over
to Treasurer Burke and for which he
is responsible.
These vastly important government
positions, that are so large in respon-
sibilities as to appall the man who
tries to measure them, are Of great
number, but one other should be men,
toned in selecting but few Of the
most strikingly interesting ones. This
other is that of councillor Of the state
department. a post just now held by
one John Bassett Moore, college pro-
lessor. This is the man who advises
as to the points Of law arising between
nations as the ordinary lawyer would
give an opinion as to the points at
difference between two individuals In
ordinary business. Treaties and inter
national differences are his regular
diet be they past or prospective. He
is likely to patch up little agree
ment any morning before breakfast
that will lead to world peace or find a
provision in an old treaty that will
crowd some land-hungry European
country off the American map.

COSBY PROPOSES
GREAT SPORT PARK
Public Buildings Superintendent
Tells c. of c. Board of His
Plans for Capital.

When a Chamber of Commerce COM
mittee visited Col. Spencer Cosby, su-
perintendent of public buildings and
grounds, with the idea Of obtaining his
idorsement of public golf links for the
District. they found that that official
has a much more comprehensive plan in
view for the development of the south
side of Potomac Park than the COM
m!ttee even had hoped for.
Not only does Colonel Cosby indorse
public golf links. but he advocates the
establishment Of great park for sports
where there will be golf links, baseball
diamonds, tennis courts and great
stadium in which the Armv and Navy
ternational sporting events should be
held.
There are about go acres at the south
end Of Potomac Park most OF which Is
wooded, and is Ct practically no use as
II stands. The rest 10 used by the
ments. which might as well be conduc-
ted on land less accessible to the city.
1t is Colonel Cosby's plan to convert
this $40 acres into a splendid park
where al! kinds Of sports might be en-
He has even gone so far as to prepare
detailed plans, which will be submitted
10 Congress. and an effort is to be made
to have Congress provide appropriations
for the buildings which will be necess-
ary adjuncts to such q park.
Colonel Cosby stated to the committee,
composed OF r. p. Andrews, John L.
Weaver. E. B. Dean. Guy Camp, and
A. B. Lyon, that he will be pleased to
cooperate with the Chamber of Com
merce OF any other civic body that will
work for q broader, more general use
Of the District parks.
The committee was so encouraged by
its conference with Colonel Cosby that
II hopes to induce the buildings and
grounds chief to give talk to the
entire chamber in the near future, out
lining his plans in detail and fllustrat-
ing them with lantern slides.
