He is willing to stand alone amid a wicked world in consistent defense of the| true faith of high protection. Most of America’s great industrialists are against him. Financiers dif- fer with him Our leading authorities on econ- omics and government are almost unanimous in holding that the Hawley-Smoot tariff ‘was a mis- take in time, in rate nd in effect. But none of these things move Senator Smoot. Instead of ad- mitting for a moment that any of the tariff taxes are too high, he maintains that they are not high enough But for the increased rates, he argues, many more men would have been out of work and he apparently believes that if all the dules had been jacked up sufficiently prosperity would by this time have returned in full flood.

It was| to the address of Mr. Lamont before the Academy | of Political Science on Friday. He brought no rail- accusation against the tariff, contenting him- with pointing out that it was certainly inop- at the time of its emactment, and that “happy method” of inducing foreigner more of our while surely not making it “easier for them to pay their govrenmental debts to Washington.” But what seems to grieve Senator | Smoot was Mr. Lamont’s statement that we had made our recovery from business depression slower and more doubtful by “hanging the load of a new act around our own necks” But he and| who think with him are now given to unde:-| that they mighty lu not to havel load made much heavier are notified self was not a good: those stand that are 3 and | by Senator Smoot that he will make it so as soon | 2 7 as he is able.

(New York World.) The Methodist Board of Temperance, Prohibi- | tion and the Public Morals is out with a statement | urging that the new system of reapportionment, | ten years late in coming into effect, be amended once more: this time to exclude aliens from the| count on which representation in Congress is based.| Unless this change is made, the board believes that the issue may | be determined by the representatives of aliens.” | Presumably such a crisis would be represented by a vote in Congress on the question of amending the Volstead Act or repealing the Eighteenth Amend- ment. The readiness of the leaders of the Prohibition movement to make loyalty to Prohibition supreme above all other causes and all other considerations has always been impressive. In this case, the pro- posal made by the Methodist board is obviously in conflict with the Constitution: Article 1, Section 2| of which requires that representation in Congress shall be based not on a count of native-born citi- zens or of naturalized citizens but on “the whole number of free *persons.” This provision of the| Constitution the Methodist board would willingly | ignore in its desire to hold for the agr: n sec- tions of the country the top-heavy representation in Congress which they now enjoy. No doubt it was this fanatical devotion to a single cause which enabled the leaders of the Pro- hibition movement to take full advantage of the! extraordinary oppogtunity manufactured for them by | the war. 1t s this same fanaticism, however, which | has turned sentiment against Prohibition in the| post-war years and won many converts to the mov e- | ment for repeal. Lights and Sound Needed. (Seward Gateway.) Lights on Rugged Island at the entrance to Res- urrection Bay and a radio-bearing station there for the direction of vessels in Westward Alaska is| a decided need for the Port of Seward. The lights| will be welcomed by every ship traveling those waters. A big radio station there would serve any ship in the Gulf of Alaska going any where. The nearest station of that kind now is Cape Hinchinbrook in Prince Willilam Spund, but it said that its radius is, to some extent, limited Oriental shipping will more and more tend this way, it is decl 1 by seafaring men and the en- trance to Resurrection Bay, the terminal point of Uncle Sam’s railroad should be both safeguarded with lights and provided with radio facilities. is Changing conditions bring changed colloquialism ne on the house” used to mean something more than a tinroof, and set-up wasn’'t just a lot of pins in a bowling alley.—(Philadelphia Inquirer.) ‘What we &re curious to know whether a dry, after leaning on the Republican Party for 10 years, can really walk alone.—(Buffalo Courier-Express.)
