One Tariff Bill or Several.

President Wilson and his advisers will soon. have
to face problem in the mechanics Of lawmakng.

Of one comprehensive BILL and time is being saved
that way But when all the parts are approved it
will be much easier to get them through the House

submitted piecemeal
The reason for this is plain. complete bill nee

ARE THE SCOTS IRISH?
Here Is One Who Protests at Length
Against the Honor.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Neither the Scot nor the Ulster
Scot is Of Irish origin, nor were the Plcts
or Caledonians ever conquered. not even
By the Romans. nor does a Scotchman
ever attempt to be an Englishman, or
any other person than a Scot.
Since 1880. when William Paterson
founded the Bank OF England. until to-
day, Scotland has done more for the
British Empire than England, and since
Andrew Hamilton. who came here from
Edinburgh In 1886. defended the New York
printer Ienger. she has done more for
the United states than any other coun-
try. In the general exodus from 1900 TO
700 b. {. the Scots settled in Spain, after

SEVENTH DAY SABBATH BILL
A Plea Is Made for It's Passage as a
Matter of Justice.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: on Wednesday. the I'd inst, the
bill introduced in the Legislature at Al
bany at the request OF the Jewish Sab
bath Association by the Hon Aaron j.
Levy. permitting persons who observe the
seventh day Sabbath TO attend TO their
business on the first day of the week.
was rejected by the Assembly. This, II
the undersigned mistakes not, was the
sixth time that bin to this effect had
been introduced into the Legislature and
defeated.
Its history IS a wearisome account OF
fair promises and partial successes, end
Ing invariably In final defeat. When In
troduced for the first time Il passed both
Assembly and Senate and was vetoed by
Governor Odell. On other occasions II
passed one House and was defeated In
the other While the Republicans were in
power Democratic Representatives told
our society that nothing else could be
expected from the Republican party be-
cause OF its narrow and Liberal views.
Now the Democratic party Is In the sad
die and has meted out to seventh day
Sabbath observers the same inconslderate
and unsympathetic treatment as It's
predecessors. We have always been 10th
10 put this matter I'm the foreground of
public attention, thinking that II is not a
matter OF particular consequence TO the
community In general whether those per-
sons who rest on the seventh day shall be
permitted 10 attend to their secular bust
ness on the first day or not, and that
there was no need to create public eX-
element on this account. But the con-
slant dlsheartening experience through
which We have gone convinces us that our
policy has been mistaken one. and that
1t IL necessary to enlist public opinion In
our behalf II we would succeed.
We are. therefore. now appealing to
our fellow citizens OF New YORK ana, In
particular TO the recognized leaders or
public opinion the press. the clergy ana
public spirited citizens In general. to con-
slider this question and 10 give express
stons to their views thereon Inc ques-
lion Is a simple one and seems 10 us one
