BAILEY
THE HUMoRIST

Representative Warren W. Bailey of
PENNSYLVANIA has several claims TO
fame. He is a Democrat from a rock
ribbed Republican state. He is a de
voted believer in the theories of Henry
George. He is one of Mr.. Bryan
most ardent disciples. He is a paeifst
with a capital P. To these, we are in
elined to think, nc is a humorist.
In a recent interview accorded 20
the New York Tribune, Mr.. Bailey
said that Bryan will not oppose Viii
sons nomination, but that he viii
strive to put into the St. Louis plat
form a strong declaration against pre-
~paredness of the kind which Wilson
has lately been advocating. "Mr. Bry-
an" says Bailey, "will be leading the
fight to tie Mr.. Wilson, hands on the
one big question on which he is wrong
by writing into the platform a bind
ing provision against large increases
in the army or navy"
Does Mr.. Bailey know that Houdini
has nothing on Mr.. Wilson when 1t
comes to slipping away from ties of
any kind7 The Baltimore platform Is
full of climbing provisions There
are provisions against extravaganza
in government expenditures, against
tolls for American ships in the Panama
canal, against playing politics with the
civil service, against more than one
term in the Presidency, against a hun
bred other things. Have Mr.. Wilson s
hands been tied by any of these ''bind-
ing provisions if he has seen fit to
slip his bonds2 Not at all. Mr.. Wilson
is bound by no provisions which do not
originate in his own mind-and his own
mind changes so frequently that no
man can tell whether Wilson is bound
or free on any subject. To talk as Mr..
Bailey does adds to the gayety of the
nation.
Our older readers will reall the Dan
bury News man, a famous humorist of
a generation gone. His name, too, was
Bailey. We wonder if the Pennsylvania
Congressman is any relation.

TARIFF
NOT DESIRED

. The New York Journal Of Commerce
publishes a special from Washington
which attempts to show a change of
attitude among certain interests
throughout the country on the subject
of the tariff. "The old style demand
for practically prohibitory protection
is growing weaker in many sections, ;"
says the article, "and in some quarters
is disappearing" 1t is doubtful if any
such demand ever seriously existed.
The American sentiment for protection
to domestic industries, as represented
in the legislation of the Republican
party, has never been for absolute pro-
hibition of imports.
A fair adjustment of duty rates,
which would give our producers an
ever break in their home market, Is
what they have asked. The Republican
party has always placed its chief reli
ance for revenue ON the protective tar
if-a tax paid chiefly by the foreigner
and which is of general benefit to the
country. Obviously the levying of ex-
t%ortionate rates would result in the
loss of this revenue to the extent that
the rates were prohibitory, and Repub-
hcan laws have been remarkably good
revenue producers. =
The Underwood law was character
lied by its Trainer as a "competitory''
measure. 1t is, to the limit. Under it
"a per cent of our imports are coming
in free, and the average duty rate now
hovers around eight per cent. AS a
revenue producer it is a farce, and the
Democrats are now suggesting 81 va
rieties of taxation to bolster it up.
The change of attitude on the tariff,
where it exists, is in the direction of
tn Republican protective idea. This
change has been most marked in the
South, which, if it could vote on the
tariff today, would show a huge ma
Jvrity for the protective policy.

"Foreign relations taking first
place." says a headline in the New
York Journal of Commerce. The arti-
Gle following goes on to say that eco
nomie questions as political issues are
being forced to the rear. The President
said some time ago that the Republi-
cans would have but one issue-the
tariff. But he has changed his mind
again and given them another-the
foreign policy. The Republicans will
meet him on his W ground with either
one, or both.

We do not understand exactly the
argument which is advanced by those
Democratic members of Congress who
are trying to add an hour a day to the
working time of the clerks in the gov.
eminent departments at Washington,
but we gather that they think it will
enable the work to be done by fewer
clerks. In that case we hazard the
guess that the reduction in force will
come exclusively from the Republican
side.

The Democratic Board of General
appraisers evidently does not believe
in cart for arts sake,' but for the
sake of increased revenue. A marble
4 %antle, and a round temple Of stone,
to be set up in a garden, were import
ed. The collector of customs levied
Guty on them al As per cent as manu-
features of marble, thereby proving
his ineigibility for appointment to the
Fine Arts commission. The Board of
General Appraisers sustained him. But

Washington, reversed the decision Of
the board and permitted these works
