GO SLOW ON TARIFF.
Matter Too important fer Hasty'
Judgment.
Conditions When the European War
Is Ended May Demand Readiust-
ment Of Schedules or 1t May
Be Unnecessary. .

Like all other instructors in the pro.
tectionist school. our neighbor the Sun
believes that there is only one way to
revise the tariff. which is upward. and,
only one acceptable time. which is
now. No matter If all industrial Eu-
rope is at war and Is doomed to re-
main SO, perhaps, for two years more.
there will be peace eventually, and
then Our manufacturers, merchants.
and workers will be at the mercy OF.
the most skillful and desperate COM
petition the world has ever known"
Probably no well-informed: person
will deny that after the close OF the
war there will arise economic condt-
tons in Europe that may demand inn
pOrtant changes in our tariff. Good
reasons may appear for increasing
some of the schedules, but it is quite
as likely that common sense will die;
tate decreases in others. With due re-
spect to the protecti0nist. school, 1t
must be said that the American tariff,
is going to be adjusted to revenue as
well as protection for many day.
Existing customs duties have failed
as reyenue-producers because the war:
has reduced imports. The war, there.
fore, has given most OF our manufac-
turers and merchants the advantage
that. they would hope for under a pro-
hibitive tariff. To increase rates upon
a. traffic that does not exist would be
useless. and experimentation In. other
direct ms, except for the one object
of revenue, would only invite jobbery.
and disaster.
1t is not in the mind Of any disinter-
ested man to say precisely what kind
Of tariff we shall need when Europe
-relinQuishes the sword. But the very
worst of all tariffs In that emergency
would be one under which few ia
yored interests could perpetuate in
time Of peace the distractions from
which we have suffered in time OF
war.-New York World.

Widespread farm improvements.

The pushing of negotiations for large
foreign loan has righted the exchange
