The Times says:
If it is launched on a falling
market, the enactment of the I'm
derwood tariff law may prove a
Pyrrhic victory. If, on the other
hand, trade continues brisk for
the next two or three years, the
question which has dominated
and districted American politics
for more than a generation may
be put on the shelf for another
decade. Reasonable protection
may be accepted as the settled
creed of the country and the path
opened for the discussion and ac-
compliShment of many overdue
reforms.
"SeIf- Government Triumph"
Meanwhile nothing can undo
the fact that the American peo+
pie have at length taken into their
own hands direction of the fiscal
policy of the nation. The passage
of the Underwood bill is some
thing more than a triumph for
economic sanity. 1t is a triumph
for self government. 1t marks the
first time that the American cleo
tors. having voted at the polls
for a reduction of the tariff, have
seen their wishes translated into
legislation by their representa-
tives.

ESTIMATED COST To

TEST IS S100,000,0O(
Underwood Declares That Results in
Cutting High Cost Of Living Will
Come Slowly, but He Is Sure They
Will Come.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-Treasury
officials to-day estimated roughly
hat about 800, 100000 of foreign
merchandise held in bond or held as
rargoes, awaiting the signing of the
new tariff law, began to-day to be
1uloaded for appraisement at the re-
duced rates of duty. This means a
loss in revenue on this aggregate of
about $4,000, 900 as compared with
what would have been derived under
The Payne Aldrich law.
The exact figures will not be known
until the reports from various col
IeCtors reach the department. These
reports in the rough will begin to
come In Monday. Definite results
ean not be asCertained for some time,
however, as goods are to be released
under the Payne AldriCh rates to eX-
nedite business, the difference be-
tween the two rates to be rebated
later on.
Those who have'had charge of the
bill in both Houses of Congress hold
that imports will be largely increased
because of the reduced rates, which
they say will lead to a larger con-
sumption of merchandise. The de-
gree Of increase in our foreign trade
will depend upon the way the do
nestle manufacturers meet the
foreign reduced cost.
The Underwood Simmons law has
been hailed by its trainers as a com
petitive tariff in that it has reduced
rates to such a point where domes-
tic manufacturers who heretofore
nave enjoyed high protection must
handle their output in competition
with foreign producers on a more
even basis. This may work out in
larger output of domestic manufac-
lures sold at lower figures and pre-
vent an unusual demand for foreign
goods.
Reduction Believed Sure.
In any event, however the result
would be reduced cost of the con-
sumner, which was the consideration
most in the minds of those who
framed the law.
1t may be observed in this connec-
non that the new law imposes the
lowest rates since 1876, when the Wal
ker tariff was adopted Experts in
Congress are beginning to warn the
public that too much must not be ex-
peCted Of the new law at once. AL
though the Democrats on the stump
IN the last campaign promised to re-
duce the high cost of living, If put in
power and may have led the people
to believe it would come Immediately,

Months Before Cost Is

before the reductions promised
might be felt.

by the new law that is going to

wood. Goods that merchants
have now in stock were bought
under the old high tariff and un-
til these goods are sold out the
merchants will not accept the ba-
sis made by the new law. It will
be several months before the ef-
feet of the new law on commodi-
ties is felt, and in many cases it
will be year.
"Marufacturers who have
large stock of raw material will
not make reductions until their
stock bought under the high tariff
has been used up. The effect on

til next spring; the full effect on
sugar not for several years"

agreements are made as provided for

expand; but the greatest hope, they
admit, lies in the skill of the Ameri-
can workman and his individual pro-
ducing capacity, which in the past
has enabled the domestic manufac-
turer to compete even against the
smaller paid foreign labor.
The Treasury Department to-day
was busy preparing instructions to
collectors that the per cent rebate
may be allowed on all goods imported
in American ships from Germany,
Canada and few other countries, as
they have no treaties with the United
States with which this rebate would

public revenue.
The Underwood act is a token
that those days are passing.
Whatever happens, the United
States is not again likely to re-
lapse into the conditions that four
years ago made the Payne act
possible. That is why President
Wilson is literally justified in
hailing the issue of the struggle,
which has brought him nothing
but credit, as a victory for the
people.
The Spectator considers the broad
features of the tariff revolution which
President Wilson has effected wholly
