THE TARIFF COMMISSION.

1t is authOrtativcly announced that the president
favors the creation OF independent nonpartsan tariff
commissions with broad powers to investigate tariff dutles
the relations between industries here and abroad and the
tariff and commercial machinery of the world. Mr.
Ktchn leader of the house. is somewhat Indifferent but
he thinks that the plan will be favored by majority of
the ways and means committee and is not himself dis
posed to antagonzc it. With such support, suppose
that there is little doubt that tariff commission will be
created.
Mr. Wilson insists that it should not be established for
the purpose Of upholding crltcising any particular
tariff policy but that should simply gather and present
facts without political bias. The general belief is that
after the there will be many industrial and CONNER
cal read ushents. Indeed these establishments
being made result Of the trade already begun by
Great Britain If the tariff commission is composed of
trained and competent men OF broad views it ought
to be able to give congress much valuable information
1t is possible that it might be able to point the way
to fuller participation by this country in the trade of the
world. The conditions certainly unusual and they
likely to become And it is quite likely that
congress- at such time this might welcome the nfor
nation and advice that properly constituted tariff
mission might be able to give.
The trouble heretofore has been that congress not
hosptable to suggestions from outside its circle
cept certain occasions to those that from inter
estcd parties seeking protection If there is change in
this particular there ought to be chance for the commits
sion to perform important service At any rate it
certain that the experiment will be tried And is
to be hoped that it will be successful While the tariff
can hardly be taken out of politics long
believe in protection and others in tariff for revenue
only it may be that manage to deal with the sub
lcct IN loss partisan way.

Several Cinnamon were arrested in
the Chinese temple this afternoon by
Chief Parker. who lodged a complaint
of gambling against them. Mr.. Park
er went to the temple after the Chinese
doctor for a Chinaman in Jail and
while making the search was inter-
rupted by Cinnamon who blocked his
progress. He waded through the crowd
and broke into the room where a
gambling game was in progress and
while a rush was made, he secured two
of the number and some of the gamb-
ling device.
One of the Cinnamon at police sta
ton made the statement that another
Chinaman had informed him if they
did not pay $3.50 each for protection
they would be arrested for gambling
and stated they had refused to make
the payments. Chief Parker accident
ly ran onto the gambling game. He
did not know what was in progress
until the Cinnamon began trying to
block his way and he then determined
to find out.
