As a News and Advertising Medium it bas mo competitor. ,any individual connected with the of- fice. but simply to THE STAR, or to the Editorial or Business Department, according to tenor or purpose. When Benjamin Harrison was elected President over Grover Cleveland in 1888 he Peceived thousands of votes, especially in the populous and powerful northwest,which ‘Were cast by men who believed that the existing tariff had in it far too much that was for the exclusive financial benefit of a few eastern manufacturers, but who yielded to the republican argument that it was bet- ter-for the tariff to be modified, equalized and deprived of these objectionable feat- ufes by its friends, than that the whole system should be sweepingly destroyed with resulting public injury by its free trade pro- English enemies. To these voters there ‘was an implied promise that in the event of republican success the tariff would be thus modified. But after Harrison's elec- tion the republican Congress instedd of meeting this expectation built higher the tariff wall, struck at no richly pampered industry, and passed the McKinley act, Which, in spite of many good points, thor- oughly disappointed the low tariff men's reasonable expectations, and opened n additional market whatsoever, as Blaine complained, for the farmers’ pork and flour. In 1892 these voters, and others over the whole country, whom they represented or could influence, indicated their resentment at the polls. The average American senti- ment is opposed to radical, unsettling tariff legislation, in the direction either of a pro- hibitory tariff or of free trade. Assuming that if the whole civilized world would or fould adopt simultaneously the free trade system the argument in favor of that sys- tem would be irresistible, the fact remains that It is not the world's system, and that especially in this republic have trade and Manufactures adopted themselves to the conditions which result from the opposing economic system. The variety of the re- Public's resources, due to the vast expanse of its territory and the energy and intelli- gence of its people, is so amazingly great, that, being almost a world within itself, it suffers far Jess from the building of a Chi- nese trade-obstructing wall about it than any other nation in history. And within this wall industries have been established giving employment to thousands of Ameri- ¢ans, which need for their existence its protection. Feeling comparatively slightly and in @ vague, general way, as yet, the ill effects of a high protective tariff and ap- Preciating that free trade will mean di- reet and specific distress of tens of thou- wands of Americans, the people of the re- public can be induced to move only with ex- treme slowness and caution in the direc- tion of free trade. An attempt by any po- litical party to hasten the republic along this path faster than the people are ready to move will be resented quite as vigor- ously as was the shove given to the nation by the McKinley act in the opposite direc- tien from that toward which it then faced. For years the tariff legislation will turn upon the figures of higher or lower rates of duties, upon questions as to what articles shail be taxed and what untaxed, and upon the degree to which the revenue fea- ture or the protective feature of the . tariff shall be made the more promi- nent. There are many good points about the Wilson bill. It is not a free trade -measure, it is not a-tariff-for-reform-only measure. There is much less of protec- . tion to American industries in it than in the McKinley act,but it {s a protective meas- wre. It corrects some excesses of the Mc- « Kinley act; it is possibly too radical ‘itself ir the propositions of certain of its sched- ules, and over these issues the legislative battle will rage. A tariff for revenue only should be a better revenue producer than a Protective tariff, whose efficacy from the “standpoint of the protected industry turné om the extent to which it can shut out im- portations of the protected product. An ideal protective tariff would be prohibitive ‘and would produce no revenue at all; the revenue result being the same as if the free-trade system prevailed. A tariff for Fevenue ought to be so framed as to raise “the metessary revenue. The Wilson bill leaves a deficit of some fifty millions to be raised presumably from an income tax. What the people save in the decrease of the indirect tax they are to pay in the _Shape of a direct tax on incomes. The in- come tax is so objectionable and unpopu- jlar that it ought not to be imposed unless the abolition of customs duties under free cettade renders the tax a necessity for the ‘purpose of raising revenue, or unless some extraordinary emergency, like war, de- ‘mands a sudden and extraordinary increase of revenues. A tariff for revenue ought in connection with the internal revenue taxes .to raise the money which the government, honestly and economically conducted, needs ‘for its purposes. The same considerations prevail in respect to the policy of reciproc- ity. If a free-trade system had been adopted, of course there would be no room for reciprocity. But as long as a modified protective system is retained, reciprocity, which is a move toward free trade with the other Americas, should be retained also; and not be discarded merely because it is @ suggestion of the preceding administra- tion of the opposite political faith. There will, of course, be local fighting, some of it very bitter, over the Propositions of the various schedules, but the fact that the revenue tariff measure submitted fails by fifty millions to raise the necessary revenue, and threatens the people with an imcome tax, ard that it unnecessarily and injuriously strikes dqwn the reciprocity policy will, it is thought, furnish grounds ef national criticism. —_<-+e—____ In securing the services of Mr. Marshall Cushing as business manager the Evening News has done well. Mr. Cushing has abundant energy, tempered with good judg- ment and made more than ordinarily valu- able by long experience in all branches of the newspaper profession. ———s+22s___ Locally there ts discussion as to how the putting of cual on the free list by the Wilson bill will affect the canal and shipping business; but the only way to solve the problem is to wait and see. —~ 2 There is much doubt expressed as to whether Congress will have things in shape for this country to swear off on protection by New Year's day. +e The State Department would appear to have ambitions of rivalling Mr. Van Alen im the matter of exclusiveness. tee In framing a street railway bill which shall be as a model the District Commis- stoners appear to Rave done well. Hitherto all such bills have been drawn up by in- genious speculators and when many of them became laws it, too late, was dis- covered that the people’s interests were uneared for and that public rights were frequently disregarded by the newly-made and disingenuous statutes. The model has been carefully constructed and will, says the District's attorney, hold all the water it was built to carry. Some of the more important features of the model were sketche? in The Star yesterday; they de- serve commendation. It has been provided in this legislative lay-tigure that where a railroad propeses to run along a street that is narrow, and should be widened before it can be used, one-half the expenses inci- @ent to such widening shall be borne by the railroad company. That is a just pro- Vise aad so is the one compelling any rail- way using overhead electric wires to fur- nish and maintain such lights upon the streets or roads through which it passes as the Commissioners may deem advisable and without expense to the District. The necessity for such a clause as the latter one must be evident to every citizen, who, has occasion to walk or drive at night out New York averue east of Seventh street. When the Eckington and Soldiers’ Home Co. was endeavoring to secure its charter from Congress its agents expatiated at length on the magnificent illumination which would be prominent in the operation of the road. For awhile the clusters of incandescent lamps on the trolley poles made New York avenue the best lighted thoroughfare in the city, but the Eckington electricity was “the ight that fafled’ and now belated pe- destrians out that way not only walk in darkness, but stumble over the cobblestones with which the company has ruined what its advocates so loudly declared would be the smoothest and best kept highway in Washington. ——_+e+_____ Mr. Tracy, the superintendent of charities, takes occasion in his annual report to say a good word for District charities and to show how false is the impression that has prevailed in many quarters that the main purpose of institutions foundel by benevo- lent Washingtons is to get appropriations from Congress. In no city of its size and wealth can be found nobler charities or more striking evidences of disinterested de- votion to the cause of suffering humanity. Mr. Tracy makes some practical suggestions looking to the economic management of the institutions that derive their support in part from District funds, which are worthy of careful attention by legislators. In many particulars Mr. Tracy differs from the views of his predecessor. His policy con- plates centralizing the diréction of Di: t charities in the office of the superin- tendent to an extent, which in his opinion will conduce to economy of expenditure, and he approves the general tendency of Mr. Warner's efforts to prevent the dupli- cation of work by multiplying institutions similar in their general objects. His recom- mendation practically looking to a restora- tion of institutions charged with the care of children to the same status in the appro- priation bills as that which they enjoyed before the board of Children’s Guardians was established, and a diminution of the funds placed at the disposal of that board, is the one that will undoubtedly provoke most discussion. +e Over many of the trade-disturbing changes proposed in the Wilson tariff bill there will be much disagreement and in some instan- ces with reason, but it is difficult to imag- ine that any human being who knows the refining influences of civilization can find it in his heart to insist on a tariff on works of art. Genius knows no country, owes al legiance to no government, and its products should be permitted to travel without geo- Sraphical interference or the encumbering burden of direct taxation. In years not so long gone as to have been forgotten, men argued that art was a luxury which none but the rich could indulge in, and for that reason heavy import duties were levied on such living pieces of canvas and blocks of marble as came to these shores. Today there is more of truth and less of humbug than there was a generation ago. Educa- tion has opened the eyes of millions who have learned to appreciate the beautiful and who demand a liberal supply of the best that can be produced by brains and brush and chisel. American artists and sculptors have never been selfish in this matter, many of them being foremost in betitioning Con- gress for the free admission of foreign works. It seems now as though the prayer for “free art” had been heard and would be answered. — reo. It is stated, and the authority is good, that the headquarters of the republican national committee are to be bermanently established in this city. That this should be so is not surprising; the only cause for wonder is that either the democratic or republican committees should ever have had their homes elsewhere. Other cities may lay claim to being commercial centers, but no other city has any title to political su- premacy. Here the hum of manufacturing industry is so low as to be almost unnoticed, here mercantile endeavor is largely of a local quality, but in the matter of politics— national politics—there’s no place like this. For some reason or other there has been in the past a tendency to locate headquarters in New York—accountel for to some ex- tent by the fact that the “bosses” generally resided in or near that city—but the repub- lican party seems to have had enough of bosses and has properly decided to direct its campaign from neutral ground; an ex- ample which the democracy will surely fol- low, if only to be immediately beneath the eyes and hand of its leader. ee ——— There will undoubtedly be some moral courage demanded from Congressmen when it comes to asserting their convictions on items of the tariff bill. In many cases the alternative seems to be a sacrifice of princi- ples or a sacrifice of constituents. —_ wee It is the juice in the sugar cane rather than the proverbial milk in the cocoanut that is the object of research in Hawaii. a Mr. Roosevelt desires It understood that his middle initial stands for “Roosevelt,” not “Resignation.” +o.
