THE TARIFE BILL

Whatever justification there may have
been for protective duties in the early days
of the country, when manufactures were
scarce, has ceased now that we are among
the greatest manufacturing nations in the
world and our exports of partly or wholly
manufactured goods in the last year were
Silly 100000. The problem before Con-
gress is not that of encouraging manufac-
ture, but Of raising revenue and effecting
the change with due regard to existing
interests.
The bill prepared by the Ways and
Means Committee, under the sanction of
the President, would put many materials
on the free list or greatly reduce the duties
on them. This will be a great boon to
manufacturers. and it must reduce the
prices Of the products to the consumers.
1t was certain that wool must 90 on the
free list; the present duties have burdened
the consumers and have not stimulated
sheep-raising With wool on the free list
the prices Of woolens can be substantially
reduced and our wooden manufacturers
should be able to sell their products abroad
On sugar the immediate reduction will
be about one-fourth, the whole duty to be
removed in three years. This gives the
sugar interests time to readjust themselves
to the changed conditions, and it should
make material decrease in the expenses
of every household. Reductions on bread
stuffs are not likely to affect prices except
when they are unusually high, and when
there is scarcity the farmers have no
right to complain of its relief by importa-
ton. The reduction of duties on meats
and food animals may be expected to en-
courage the importation from Canada and
the southern part Of this hemisphere suffi-
GENTLY to check the rising prices. AL
though prices are high, the farmers are
not increasing their supplies, and they can
not complain if the country shall draw on
foreign sources.
On wooden and cotton cloths investiga-
tons made by Mr.. Taft's Tariff Board leave
no doubt that present duties are far too
high even If the theories of the Protection
lists be admitted. On iron and steel the
enormous exports prove how little need
there is of protecting the American manu-
facturer. He is now seeking competition
all over the world.
The tariff bill would remove about $780,
100000 Of taxes that fall upon consump-
ton, involving the payment of several
times that by consumers who must pay
enhanced prices for the domestic as well
as the imported article, and would replace
this by moderate and graduated income
tax falling only on persons whose incomes
exceed $4,000. A man earning $4,000
would only pay $40 a year, being per
cent. on the income in excess of $4,000.
The principle of graduated tax is now
pretty well established in theory and in
practice, and this measure would do some
thing to relieve the burden of the man of
small means by adding little to the taxa
tion-it can hardly be called burden-of
the man Of large means.
The bill redeems the promise of the
Democratic party and the assurances of
the Democratic President.

CONGRESS CONVENED.

Congress convened in extra session on
Monday last. The Democratic party, in
full possession Of the executive and legis-
lative branches Of the national govern
ment, turned the wheels of legislation
toward revision of the tariff.
Leaders of the House presented to the
country tariff bill, voluminous in detail
and radical in its proposed reduction Of
existing duties.
Opening proceedings in the Senate were
perfunctory, but in the House the legisla-
tive leaders were hailed with wild applause
as they appeared and the galleries were
crowded to overlooking as the members,
more than a third Of them new ones, were
sworn in. Majority Leader Underwood and
Speaker Clark were given rousine ovations.
In nominating Mr.. Clark for Speaker Rep
resentative Palmer, of Pennsylvania, was
cheered when he said:
81 voice the common opinion of Demo-
Gratis everywhere when | Say that to his
patriotic conduct of the Office of Speaker
was due in no small part the peoples con-
fidence in his party which led to our great
victory last November"
Speaker Clark received 271 votes; Jas.
R. Mann, of Illinois, Republican. received
III votes, and Victor Murdoch. of Kansas,
Progressive, received is votes. Four Pro-
9ressive Republicans voted for Representa-
tive Cooper, of Wisconsin. Mr.. Cooper
voted for Representative Nelson. of Min
nesota.
Vice-President Marshall called the Sen
ate to order and administered the oath to
Senators-elect Sherman, of Illinois, and
Golf. Of West Virginia

SENA TORS TO BE ELECTED BY
A DIRECT VOTE.

Direct election of United States Senators
became one of the provisions of the Con-
stitution on Tuesday last by Connecticut
ratification of the amendment to that effect.
Thirty-six States, the requisite three fourths
Of all in the Union, now have approved the
change. 1t remains only for the governors
of all the States which have acted favor
ably to formally notify Secretary Bryan,
and for him to issue proclamation an
nouncing the change.
The amendment to the Constitution is
the second within the last few months and
is the seventeenth to be adopted. 1t reads
THE Senate of the United States shall
be composed of two Senators from each
State. elected by the people thereof, for
six years; and each Senator shall have
one vote. The electors in each State shall
have the qualifications requisite for cleo
tors of the most numerous branch of the
State legislatures.
when vacancies happen in the repre-
sentation of any State in the Senate, the
executive authority of such State shall
issue writs of election to fill such vacan-
cles, provided that the legislature of any
State may empower the executive thereof
to make temporary appointments until the
people fill the vacancies by election as the
legislature may direct"

PREDICTS FLIGHT TO EUROPE
IN ONE DAY.

The crossing Of the Atlantic by an aero
plane going 1870 miles an hour. at height
OF five miles and in an atmosphere of only
one third the density of the air at the earth
level. is confidently predicted by DIR. Alex
ander Graham Bell, of Washington, inven-
tor of the telephone and an aeronautic
authority.
DR.. Bell believes the trip can be made
in twenty hours because the aeroplane will
not only be able to reach an unparalleled
rate Of speed in the upper strata of the
air but will be greatly helped by the steady
atmospheric drifts from West to East
across the Atlantic.
The difficulty advanced that the air al
five miles altitude will be too rare to sus-
tain the life of an aviator is only imaginary,
he believes, because an aeroplane travel
ing at triple its ordinary speed in an at
mosphere one-third of average density will
have equal conditions in every way.
The aeroplane, probably possessing the
equipment of the modern flying boat, will
not need to descend to the surface of the
ocean except in emergency.
ITO make the trip at ALL it should be
made in a single squirt" says DR.. Bell
There are machines existing today which
II they can continue for twenty hours the
speed they have made for shorter periods
will make the flight possible in a single
day"
Mr.. Bell believes that Lord Northcliffe' {
offer Of $4,000 for the first flight acros.

seventy-two consecutive hours is prac.
teal one.

STATE MAY HAVE BUT ONE
u. S. SENATOR

Maryland may be represented in the
United States Senate by only one Senator
during part of the important regular ses-
sion Of Congress beginning December Isl
unless Governor Goldsborough shall call an
extra session Of the Legislature to provide
machinery for the nomination and cleo
tion Of Senators under the direct election
amendment at the fall election.
Lawyers agree that Senator William P.
Jackson's appointment will expire after
the converting of the Legislature on Janu-
airy 2, 1914. II no election Of a Senator
for the short term shall have taken place
before then and il shall be necessary
to await the provision Of machinery by the
General Assembly to elect, there may be
an interim of several months during which
the seat will be vacant.
1t seems that only by call for an extra
session from the Governor can this be
averted. The State Constitution gives the
Legislature no power to convene itself in
an extra session.
WV oohooODiOubh Guys hC 10 oppOSCu
to extra sessions on general grounds, but
would consider an extra session II the
amendment were adopted to the Federal
Constitution.
II has been suggested that the Governor
might refuse to call an extra session in
order to delay the election Of Democrat
TO succeed Jackson. Generally. il is not
believed he viii be influenced definitely by
this.
Aside from the proprety Of such course
1t Is pointed out. is the probability that a
political maneuvre Of this sort by the Gov
erhor would anger the Democrats and move
them to retaliation by cutting of the Gov
ernor's power in the next Legislature, in
which they almost certainly will have an
enormous majority. Politicians say the
Democrats would be sustained by public
opinion under the circumstances.
So far as cost Of an extra session is con-
