ELASTIC PROVISIONS OF THE TARIFF
RILI

Senator Smoo very soundly contends that the
best thing in the tariff bill is that part OF 1t
which provides that it shall be elastic, through the
provision which authorizes the President to reduce
tariff commission. That would be very wise pro-
vision if should have it adjunct of the low
Underwood tariff measure. However, it is not so
sound when it is tackled the highest tariff bill
that passed Congress, and it is conceded that
that is what the Fordney- McCumber tariff bill is
With such a provision in connection with low
tariff like that of the Underwood Act, it would be a
logical method for building sfactory tariff. Under
ouch circumstances it would be necessary for those
who want the tariff raised to make showing that
would stand the test of expert scrutiny With tariff
higher than a Mckinley dreamed, however, it is
entirely different matter. The method of opera
ton with the highesever tariff would be the accept
CT that high tariff reasonable and the re-
quiremen that it be made plain that lower tariff
a particular schedule is necessary before a reduc-
tion would be allowed 1t would be far easier to
build up scientific tariff than it would be to
down tariff wall to meet the requirements of a
scientific basis If Congress would accept the elastic
provision CT the Fordney McCumber bill and discard
the remainder CT the act and thereby give the tariff
experts fair chance. there would be very excellent
arguments for the passage of the measure

A FOOLISH SUGGESTION.

A New York State Congressman suggests t
Great Britain settle her debt to the United States
giving the Great Lakes portion of Canada to
country.
The Bufao statesman puts it in these words:
II would be easy for Great Britain to dis
charge its debt to the United States without
the expenditure of a penny. She has
OverplGs of land for the worlds good>
1t would be "a good bargain for both
countries If Great Britain in consideration
of the cancellation CT the debt would cede
to the United States the portion of Canada
embracing the whole of the Great Lakes and
connecting waters. What great blessing it
would be to that portion of Canada to be
part of our great country. II would make
possible the development of both shores of
the Great Lakes; il would make both sides
of the Niagara River the great industrial
center OF the world by freeing the develop
ment of power at Niagara Falls from bound

Canada would be Immensely enriched and the
United States would round out its territory
