Wilson's Last Lap

On March Woodrow Wilson enters
upon the last lap Of his presidential
course. The home stretch is Iull Of
Of pitfalls and obstacles and he is al
ready nearly tuckered out with past
exertions. He does not dare 10 look.
back and it is an unpleasant prospect
that stretches out before him. When
he began the course he was the mask
ed marvel Of national politics. To-
day the mask has slipped way of to
one side and he is seen for what he is,
man with no fixed convictions who
is willing to play with the most sacred
Of national affairs, the supreme court
and the foreign relations +, in order to
obtain a personal political benefit.
Under these circumstances it is
small wonder that Wilson has lost his
stride as he enters the last quarter Of
his presidential course. Winded and
weakened, he hopes with desperation
Tor some unexpected piece Of luck to
help him through. His supporters
realize that nothing else can save him.
Henry Watterson has lately said, IF
Wilson's luck does not desert him, he
will be reelected" But a president
who looks for luck instead Of clinging
to character to give him success is in
bad way.

Trade Advantage for Canada

Our imports from Canada for the
calendar year 1915 were over per
cent greater than for 1914, both years
under the Democratic tariff law, and
Is per cent greater in 1915 than in
1918, nine months Of the year 1918
being under the Republican protect
i've tariff. Our exports we're II per
cent greater in 1915 than in 1914,
but II per cent less in 1915 than in
1918.
The official figures given out by the
Department Of Commerce, show
that Canada can help England to car
ry on the war and still throw another
loop around the market, thanks to the
Democratic tarif-ior'less than revenue
law. Moreover, the war diverted a
huge stream OF products 10 Europe
which otherwise would have come to
the United States, and as a large pro-
portion Of our imports from Canada
are products Of the soil, those who
make their living from the soil in the
United States will appreciate what they
escaped.
In 1915 our exports TO Canada
amounted to $345,0O0,000, largely
manufactured products, while our i'm
ports from Canada amounted to Sl77,'
100000, giving balance Of trade in
our favor Of $l67, 100000.
In 1914 our exports amounted to
$40, 100000 and our imports to Sl64,-
100000 giving favorable balance Of
trace OF Sl64,0O0,000
In 1918, three months oi which was
under the Democratic tariff law. we
exported to Canada merchandise 10 the
value Of S403. 100000 and imported
goods TO the value OF $4,000, 900
giving balance OF trade in our favor
Of s26l, 100000
The difficulties arising from lack Of
tonnage did not affect US in our trade
with the Dominion, and as most oi
our imports from Canada consists oI
goods on the free list, the Democratic
tariff law has given that country great
boost.

OF Interest to Farmers

In a recent issue Of Commerce Re-
ports, the Department Of Commerce
expressed great surprise that the
Netherlands and Switzerland sold
much larger quantities Of milk in the
United States in 1915 than ever be.
before" Inasmuch as the Democrat.
ic tariff law placed condensed milk on
the free list, there is nothing surpris'
ing about the fact that European
countries are taking advantage Of it.
However. half Of our milk imports are
coming from Canada who turned down
our reciprocity offer in 1911 and recei-
we'd Tree access to our market in 1918.

No PruhibitOry Tariff Desired

The New York Journal Of Com
merce publishes a special from Wash
ington which attempts to show change
Of attitude among certain in
terests throughout the country on
the subject ot the tariff. The
old style demand for practically prohi-
bitory protection is growing weaker in
many sections" says the article. and
in some quarters is disappearing. 1t
is doubtful il any such demand ever
seriously existed. The American SEN
timent for protection to domestic in
dustries, as represented in the legis
lation Of the Republican party, has
never been for absolute prohibition Of
imports.
A fair adjustment Of duty rates
which would give our producers an
even break in their home market is
what they have asked. The Republi'
can party has always placed its chief
reliance for revenue IN the protective
tarif-a tax paid chiefly by the foreign
er and which is Of general benefit to
county. Obviously the levYing OF
extortionate rates would result in the
loss Of this revenue producer.
The Underwood law was character
lied by its iramer as "competitory"
measure. 1t is, 10 the limit. Under
it "a per cent OF our imports are COM
coming in free, and the average duty
rate now hoveGs around eight per cent.
As a revenue producer it is farce,
and the Democrats are now suggesting
81 varieties OF taxation 10 bolster it up.
The change Of attitude on the tariff,
where it exists, is in the direction ol
the Republican protective idea. This
change has been most marked in the
South, il it could vote onathe tariff to-
day, would show huge majority fol
the protective policy,

The teachers union petition said in
part:
We strongly indorse the administra-

that he has rendered unusually valuable
services for the good Of our schools.
IF the Board of Education under the
presidency of Mr.. Blair, were inefficient
the first persons to observe the fact
would be the teachers. We would per-
haps be the first to suffer the ill effects.
The fact therefore, that we stand united
in our Endorsement of Mr.. BIair's admin

his reappOintment for the continued good
Of the school system. is in itself. we be-
Heve. unmistakable evidence that Mr..
