Why Beecher Is Remembered

The intimate personal recOlectiOns Of Henry Ward
Beecher which General IIoratio G. King elsewhere
contributes to this paper in connection with the cen
teuary of his birth suggest the Kaleidoscope variety
Of the great preachers interests and activities. al
though his mind and nature had the essential sim
plicity Of n childs. But there certain salient
fea of his work for which chiefly he remains the
best remembered preacher Of the American pulpit
one was his early and effective work for rational
temperance at time when such work was far less
poDular than II afterward became. 1t peculiarly
fitting that he should do it, as the son Of the first
great ministerial temperance reformer in America.
Another was his championship Of free speech aud
free men. When Isaiah Rynders's outlaw gang ter
rided even the old Broadway Tabernacle into clos
ing its doors against antislavery orator Beecher
opened the doors of Plymouth Church TO him When
New England colOnists went to Kansas to maintain
the freedom of its soil he took up Sunday morning
and 10 buy the rifles first. When other tongues fall
tered for fear in their remonstrance against human
slavery his thundcred anathemas the more boldly.
/, third was his service for the Union as the
bassador Of the American people TO the people Of
Great Britain The history of oraory records no
more transcendent triumph than his. when again and
again he confronted a bowling, raging multitude of
passionately devoted friends and the service which
he thus did for the nation simply inestlmable

DANCER of Banking Without Bankers

President Wilson is reported TO have expressed the
view in a Cabinet meeting discussing the admins
tration currency plan that no President would dis
grace himself by using the powers of the proposed
Federal Reserve Board for political purposes. 1t
would be equally plausible to say that no board OF
bankers charged with the responsibility TO the nation
az large that the Federal Reserve Board would have
would disgrace itself by serving the ends of selhsh
business or speculative interests. The experience
of other nations is that bankers may be trusted with
the great powers Of central bank; that they take
their duty to their country just as seriously as do
justices Of the United States Supreme Court
It would be as wise TO create Supreme Court OF
lsvmen as II would he to create supreme bank OF
Iaymen The country needs 10 be assured not merely
that the President of the United States would not
disgrace himself but that his appontees to the fed
eral board would have the technical knowledge TO
perform wisely the great task that would he imposed
upon them.
As for the capacity Of politicians for such duties
the present President of the United States confessed
little while ago that he knew little about currency
and finance His bill shows that he has not learned
much since then. The question Is not so much
whether or not he and his successors would avoid
"diseracing" themselves as whether or not their
sheer ignorance would not bring disaster

The Senate and the Tariff Bill.

The three hundred changes made by the Senate
Finance Committee in the tariff sections of the
Underwood bill tend on the whole to improve that
measure viewed as an effort at substantial down
ward revision. The Senate amendments with one
marked exception in line with the principles on
which the House bill was framed, and will have
the effect of carrying out those principles more
completely than the House bill did. For the first
time in the memory Of the oldest inhabitant the
Senate Finance Committee has shown itself more
consistent and outspOken downward revisionlSt
than the House Ways and Means Committee.
The Senate revisers are to be congratulated on
having had the courage TO put cattle and wheat
on the free list Mr.. Underwood made hides, beef
and practically all the cOmponens Of cattle on the
hoof free but tried to pull wool over the eyes Of
the farmers 10y continuing duty on the livestock
itself Similarly he made -four free and retained
a duty on wheat Such pettifogging was too cheap
for the Senate committee 1t preferred to keep its
record in the agricultural schedule abovebosrd and
straight.
One change-the imposition OF tax Of cents
D bunch on bananas-is to be regretted The trans
fer OF bananas from the free list the ground that
their importation into this country Is controlled
by trust is an apt illustration Of the bootessness
Of such method Of attacking trusts. The duty
will have to be borne by the consumer and will
simply give the trust a welcome excuse for rails
ing the price of bananas to retailers. When the
time comes for the consumer to settle up he will
be paying at the rate of TO- II 90 cents additional
bunch.
The banana is the poor mans fruit 1t is sold all
the year round and has high food value. The
best and simplest way TO attack trust is to try to
put its directors and officers in jail for criminal
restraint Of interstate foreign commerce. The
banana trust will only he gamer If the House

The Crest of the Continent.

There is little likelihood that Dr. Stucks Story
of the scaling of Mount Mckinley Will be I'D
purned or even called into question 1t bears tne
earmarks of truth. and its sincerity is emphaslzeu
bv its report of the finding of LloydS hagstaH Oh
the northern peak and of the pacing OF marx OIL
the southern peak which subsequent explorers may
find.
The former circumstance is peculiarly grath!
ing because instead of rousing the rivalry and dS-
nutcs which have marked some reports OF eNplora-
ton il causes one fine achievement to connrin
the record Of another. In fact with the exception
of the egregious Cook the story Of the conquering
of Mount Mckinley. now complete. is fehcitously
free from controversy. Parker and Browne al
mitted that they fell little short Of full ascent
Ilovd claimed To have attained the summit of the
northern peak. and his claim is now verified by the
conoucror Of the southern peak
The southern peak appears to he slightly the
higher of the two. wherefore TO DIR. Stuck and MS
comrades must be given the honor of having hrst
reached the crest of the continent, though only II
little less distinction and no less credit for pluck
and courage will he given to Lloyd and his party
II is cause for qualification that the highest point
in North America is soil belonging 10 the United
States and that il has been first reached by citizens
of this country.

Profession and Politics Strangely Mixed.

The most picturesque feature Of the whole Mar
conf investigation and trial in England was the ap-
pcarance Of Sir Edward Carson as the chief counsel
for the Liberal ministers. Nobody could surpass
the skill and zeal with which that eminent adyo-
cate defended his clients and won for them sub
stantal vindication He thus gained for himself
the gratitude and applause Of the Liberalization
alist Home Rule coalition, and probably saved the
government from disaster and the Home Rule pro
gramme from defeat.

A New Jersey Contrast.

A striking contrast was presented last week by the
utterances of of the foremost party leaders re

Of those parties in the coming state campaign.
Mr.. Wakelee. chairman Of the Republican State
Committee, made clear the readiness Of himself aud
his associates to unite with the ProgressNes on a
thoroughly progressive platform and in support Of
progressive candidate for Governor, pointing out the
proprety and ease Of such course, since it was by
virtue Of regular Republican support that the pri-
mary election law. the corrupt practices act, the
public utilities law the commission government act,
the civil service law the workmens compensation
act and other progressive measures were placed upon
the statute book.
Mr. Osborne, the leader of the Progressive party
organization on the other hand, inveighed against
