servations to be made. The first is
that the President expressly provides
against that reading of the situation.
The second observation is that Ameri-
can import duties, as sweepngly re-
vised by the new bill, would still stand
very considerably higher upon most
manufactured articles than 10 per cent,
which our own policy of tariff reform
proposes to place upon such articles
Upon various products of industry they
stand twice or thrice as high, and both
the nation and its present governors
believe the United States would get
value for the money"
Tariff Wall Still High.
The Daily Mali says: What the
President proposes is reform on gem
eral lines advocated by Mr. Bonar Law
in this country. without taxes on food
and raw materials. but with moderate
duties on manufactured goods From
the British standpoint the American
tariff wall is still left so high it Will
not be easy to climb it, However, 1t is
quite possible the tariff bill may be re-
jectcd or greatly altered before it leaves
Congress. and until We know its final
shape we cannot be certain Of its pre-
else effect II may not be an unmiXed
blessing to Great Britain, for under a
system of reasonable protection the
United States will be not less but more
formidable as a trade rival
"Thc Morning Post says: The
tariff will remain scientific and pro-
tcctive tariff, protecting what seems
10 require protection and admitting raw
materials which are required by the
manufacturer and cannot be produced
at home in sufficient quantities. If
these reforms are carried out the
United states probably viii be more
formidable in competition with Great
Britain than she Is now, for she will
have abandoned certain anomalies and
disadvantages of protection, while
maintaining its advantages"

turgid vcrbosity Of Roosevelt and the
good natured natulence Of Taft. the
simple dircctness and force of the new
President must be a startling novelty

than minimized the magnitude Of the
change involved i'm the new tariff. We
hope our own protectionists will profit
by his mastery statement of the case

Revolution in Trade.

Abolition of duties on boots and
shoes is regarded as certain To produce
something approaching revolution in
British trade. II is confidently expect
ed that British made footgear Will be
offered in increasing quantities n
America.
Birmingham traders see in prospect
new and important market for some
of their wares. Motorcycle makers
view the reduction of duty with con-
siderable satisfaction.
1T is the first CLEAN of hope we have
had in regard to American trade" Aaid
Mr.. Wilson, Of the New Hudson Com
pany. "Thc new tariff gives us Il
chance of sharing i'm the American
market If harness, saddlery. leather.
hoop iron and wire fencing are placed
Oh the free list local producers Will
benefit considerably. Reduction of duty
on the foregoing will also open up IA
new market to a large range of goods
made in this district"
Editorial comments on the new tarif
are more or less perfunctory in char
acter.
The Times" says: "In democratic
society the legislator has TO get other
people To see that his remedies are
genuine and that is where the real dif-
llcultes of President wilson's enter
