Anybody Want a DipIoducus7

Andrew Carnegie has corner in di
plodocuses. He owns the bones OF
nearly all of these saurians of the car
boniferous age that still remain over
from that period In the dim past; and
he is presenting them to various gov
ernments as tokens of esteem and of
the friendship of the United States.
A restored diplodocus sixty feet long
has just been sent by his direction to
the Argentine republic, with which our
relations have always been most
friendly. AS peace offerings. however,
these petrif3ed skeletons have not al.
ways had the desired effect. The Ger.
man kaiser received one year or two
ago. which was even bigger than the
Argentine spscfmsn-and soon after
the trouble ovcr the potash question
began.

ON THE "M'ANENY INVASION
Property Owner and Prospective

To the Editor OF The Tribune.

Mr. McAncny-for his quotation from

There can he no question as 10 the con
fscatory character OF Mr.. McAneny' S

that OF his abettors in the Board OF Est-

The Scramble for Broken China.

Wilson's policy toward China. He Will not use gov
ernmental influence in behalf Of Individual enter
prises Great Britain, France Germany, Russia
and Japan thereupon exclaim in concert, But we

loan agreement into the waste basket ana plunge
into a sordid scramble for individual advantage
1t is not in the least surprising. Nobody prop
ably expected the quIntuple pact to be permanently
maintained. I'm spirit That was one reason FOR
qualification at the withdrawal of America from the
original six.power group, unless this country also
wanted TO become selfish grabber Probably IL
would be too much to expect any nation TO forego
the opportunity of pushing its own interests ahead
Of those of It's neighbors.
In the present case we are about to see strenu'
ous scramble for precedence IN China, even at the
expense Of menacing the integrity OF that country
There Is no technical barring out Of American enter
prise. But we shall watch with much interest 10
see what Roadway American enterprises without
governmental backing can make against allen COM
pettors who have such backing

The Tariff Conference Report.

From the viewpoint Of Democratic pledges the
tariff bill it emerged yesterday from the confer
ence committee for action in the House Of Repre-
sentatives Is improvement on either the House or
the Senate draft. Contrary to custom, the worst
mistakes of each branch have been compromised
out Likewise, in contrast with the precedens OF
the past. the Senate has succeeded in pushing rates
little down rather than considerably up and after
all the splitting Of differences which goes on in a
conference committee The general average Of duties
in the completed bill is about per cent lower than
It was in the bin as it passed the House.
The Senate was bolder than the House in reduc-
ing or abolishing existing duties food products,
many of them largely for mental effect alone If the
cost Of food continues to rise and the domestic sup
ply continues to fall off it is evident that the United
States will have to go outside It's own borders for
foodstuffs and that there be sound economic
reason for taxing their Importation. Having gone
certain length In that direction, Congress may
soon be compelled to 90 much further
Each house sidetracked in conference n number Of
the others blunders. The senates reactionary anti
free art amendment was killed and It's attempt to
evade the civil service law In authorizing additional
appointments In the internal revenue service was
partially frustrated. The obnoxious cotton future
amendment reported with disagreement, and It
will probably go out entirely. On the other hand
the Houses foolish provision for a 5 per cent dis
count duties goods brought in in American
built and owned ships modified 80 as to prevent
its affecting any favored nation treaty to which the
United States is now party. 1t would have been
much better to drop this rebate scheme altogether
thus avoiding complications with other maritime ma
tons.
The Senate did a valuable service in forcing the
minimum Of taxable incomes down from $4,000 10
$4,000 The lower the minimum the less the danger

English Relics of Washington.

The progress which is being made with the scheme
for the purchase of Sulgrave Manor a national
memorial Of Washington is TO be regarded with
satisfaction The Washington family in the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries widely scat
tered throughout England and there interesting
memorials Of It in various places But Sugraye
was the seat OF that branch from which George
Washington descended. In that manor house
his paterna great greatgreat grandparents lived.
and in the neghboring parish church those ancestors
were buried. Their grandson, John, was the first
Washington TO come to America. and his grandson,
Augustine was the father Of George Washington.
For a British committee to purchase the place
and to present it TO the American nation would be
snguarly gracious and appropriate act, and would
be one of the finest conceivable methods Of material
ly marking the completion Of century Of peace be-
tween the two countries. 1t would serve another
and lasting reminder Of the fact that Washington,
while the father Of his country America, also
one of the greatest Englishmen Of his time-Britsh
authorities have said the greatest Of all The event
would also remove the last traces Of the reproa
which has been much exaggerated, that the English
people do not feel as kindly toward Americans as
Americans do toward them. The gift Of Sugraye
would be supreme seal OF mutual good will

BRYAN CHEATING UNCLE SAM
Correspondent Thinks he Must Neg.
lect Public Duties.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: I read this morning with interes,
the communication from Bertha Mapes,
printed in to-days Tribune. in defence Of
Mr.. Bryan and his Chautauqua lectures.
According TO Mr.. Bryans own statS
ment. the salary paid him by the govern
ment is insufficient for his needs. That
being so. and the matter OF civic duty not
entering into his calculations, Mr.. Bryan
should not have accepted the portfolio OF
Secretary OF State. In accepting engage
ments 10 lecture Mr.. Bryan Is stealing the
peoples time and using II to line his own
pockets. Looking at II from the practical
viewpoint, II narrows down to thls-that
a man is being employed by certain cor
poration at a salary OF $1,000 year 10
perform the duties OF one of Its greatest
Offices. That man. instead OF performing
his duties. leaves them 10 be performed
by understrappers, or not 10 be done at
all. and accepts employment from some
body else. at the same time accepting the
salary from the corporation.
The opinion OF Mr.. Bryan en.ertained BY
the people, as exhibited when he ran for
President, seems 10 be vindicated, and the
only conclusion TO be drawn from MI
Bryan's present conduct is that ne
cheating Uncle Sam and obtaining SAL
airy which he Is not earning.

The Cosmopolitan Clinic.

The Commissioners of Accounts call attention
again TO the extent to which New York serves the
world In charities. Every year, they tell us, thou
sands of aliens-that is immigrants not yet natural
ized-are treated free Of charge in Bellevue and the
Allied Hospitals. The average cost to the city OF
each such patient is $2l 10 so that the whole ex-
pense OF such service TO non-ctizens is consider
able sum.
This is only one item Of this city's long roll Of
benefcences Many aliens are cared for in other
institutions, public and private In addition, multi
tudes flock hither from other cities and states OF
this country for the treatment and for the metro
politan privileges and advantages which New York
affords Our parks, libraries, art galleries, mu-
seums and what not are maintained for the good
of visitors as well as-at times it seems even more
than--for our own people
New York does not begrudge the fact; nor, indeed,
is there any reason why she should. Some bills
for the Of aliens, such that to which atten-
ton is called, should be shared by the nation.
But on the whole, New York is glad to be cosmo-
potan clinic for the aing and a cosmopolitan bust
office and pleasure resort and seat Of education
for those who are WELL Besides which, It pays.

The Young Man Who Yearned for Oxford.

We find 1t difficult TO shed real tears over the
young man, aged seventeen, OF Cleveland. ohio'
who pinned so hard to study at Oxford, England that
he wandered off with some 400 o. his employers
money.
A genuine thirst for education IS one thing With
ont II very few OF great men would have
amounted to anything. But education Is obtalnable
in many ways besides going to oxford, and some
of the best of the ways do not require any S4oo 10
bring them within reach. Any number OF ambi-
tious young Americans work their way through
college every year.
We are very much afraid that the youth In ques
ton mistook the trimmings for the reality What
he needs to learn first of all is that no education
can be bought at any price-and that hard work
and honest resolve will bring a college education
within the reach OF every young American who
deserves II.

A Noteworthy Experiment.

Thomas NJ Osborne was probably right In think
ing that the average will regard as "Quixotic''
his attempt to gain insight into prison conditions
by undergoing a brief voluntary term of imprison-
ment at hard labor in the Auburn penitentary. 1t
is difficult to get the man outside prison walls
interested in the fate OF the man inside them.
Society has been disposed TO go its way regardless
Of what happens TO the derects who break its laws
The common judgment is that society is concerned
merely to get them out Of the way for time, much
as dangerous animals are similarly disposed Of.
The essence of that theory Is that the criminal
once he is convicted. becomes waste human mate
rial He is to be credited to loss the social ledger
and then eliminated from the social and economic
equation But the validity Of that assumption is
being more and more challenged by modern econo-
msts and sociologsts and the time certainly is ripe
for serious effort TO discover whether, after ALL
an excessive waste is not involved in this pessi-
mistic method Of dealing with the criminal classes.
Mr. Osborne is entitled to the highest credit for
trying to get TO the heart Of the question by viewing
prison life from the inside He does not assume
that one brief personal experience will solve prob
lem OF very long standing. But undoubtedly It will
help him greatly in his work as chairman OF the
State Commission for Prison Reform. Intelligence
and sympathy may go long way toward lighting
