The Amended Tariff Bill. ‘That the Dingley tariff bill would be amended by the majority of the Senate Finance Committee was a certainty; that it has been amended for the better Is a question. But, for better or for worse, the bill, as amended, is now before the country, and debate on it in the Senate will begin in two weeks. There are some surprises in the work of the Senate committee. The invasion of the free breakfast table, in the proposed duty on tea, is one, and the proposed increase of the tax on beer fs another. Both propo- sitions had been much discussed, but few of the leading republicans of either house of Congress expected to see them recom- mended in the amended bill. Both are recommended, ard both provoke a good deal of discussion. There is likewise a field outlined for sharp fighting between the East and West on the questions of wool and hides, the outcome of which is exceed- ingly uncertain. The Hawaiian reciprocity problem is, un- wisely, left open. The Senate Commitiee would have done better by taking a definite stand in the premises one way or the other. It is a highly important matter, and one involving very much more than the mere sugar duty question which stands imme- diately in the foreground. But the reci- precity treaty is by no means imperiiled by this straddle, or evasion. The Senate will have opportunity to go definitely oa record, and friends of the treaty there and elsewhere are confident that it will be sus- tained. Considerations of the highest na- tional concern demand that it should be sustained. The contest, at bottom, is one between the American people and the Sugar Trust, and members of neither house should find it difficult to record themselves on the right side. The extent to which the Senate debate and the subsequent conference between the two houses may change the bill as it now stands is a subject open widely to specula- tion. Changes there will be, beyond a deubt. Tariff bills have sometimes taken on some of their most prominent features im conference. But that a tariff bill, con- sistent in the main in the imposition of pro- tection duties, and framed to yield a suffi- cient revenue for the support of the gov- ernment, will emerge in good time from the congressional arena is a confident expecta- tion based alike upon the demands of the country and the intelligent responsibility of the party in power. ed Senator Morrill's Good Work. Se Morrill's re-introduced bill for the purchase of a site for a Supreme Court building should be passed at the earliest moment. Ii is designed to complete the great architectural scheme started wher the magniticent Library building was locat- ely east of the Capitol with aa on the nerth’for a similarly structure. Senator Morrill serves great credit for this conception and for its execution thus far. The Li building is today due to his sagacity broad view of the needs of the goverament. It has been his avowed determination since that plan wes corsummated to complete the work by persuading Congress of the necessity fcr the erecticn of a suitable home for the nation’s highest court, now inadequately housed in the Capitol. The court itself, to be sure, requires compara- tively little room, but it is in contempla- tion that the new structure will be made large cnough to provice not only for the expansion of the court and its accessories, but also for the Department of Justice, so closely asscciated with this tribunal. No more appropriate union of tenants could be devised, and with it accomplished the na- tion can beast of the possession of a great temple of justice, of which, if the work be done artistically, it may well be proud. The present bill provides only for the pur- chase of the necessary site, which cannot reasorabiy be smaller than that devoted to the Libra: It is fortunate that in this enterpri there does not exist the same obstacle to action that usually handicaps all efforts to secure new government build- ings—the choice of a site. The location of the Library solved that problem for the later building, and Congress has no go0d reason for further delay in the matter of Senator Morrill's measure. Procrastina- tion is a false economy, for the cost of the land in question will never be less than it is today and will probably be greater. The taking of the initial steps for the con- demnation of the land will not necessarily make requisite the immediate appropriation of any greater sum, and the plea of gov- ernmental poverty, so often made in oppo- sition to such enterprises, should not be raised in this case. — +02 -—___ ‘The Sugar Trust is on top, as usual. Despite all explanations to the contrary the fact is palpable that the sugar auto- erats dictated the covert blow to the Ha- waiian reciprocity treaty given in the Sen- ate tariff bill. —_____+ +e Greece has awakened to the fact that while it may be safe to trust to inspiration for poetry, the same method fs not likely to succeed in warfare. de- ——_+ ee —____ ‘The Struggle of the Greeks. From a historical standpoint every inch of ground that is being fought over in ‘Thessaly is sacred. It was in this terri- tory that the ancient tribe of Ilellenes which gave the name of Hellas to the peo- ple of Greece dwelt and flourished. From Thessaly the Argonauts started on their search for the golden fleece. Larissa, the ety which was the keynote of the first campaign in the present war, ts of an ex- tremely ancient origin and is mentioned again and again in old Hterature. Thessaly has only belonged to modern Greece since 1881 when it was added after the Turkish- Russian war. By the arrangement between Great Britain, France and Turkey after the Grecian war for independence in 1823, ‘Thessaly was left to Turkey and the northern line of Greece ran along the crest of the Othrys Mountains. In 1881 Thessaly took her proper place in the Grecian king- dom. The country in which the fighting is going on is generally of a level character but, as is the case throughout Greece, broken into districts by mountain spurs. Invaders of Greece have invariably found ‘hat the capture of one section of the coun- ‘try meant only a single step in the subju- @ation of the kingdom. Mountain range efter mountain range cuts the country in- to separate and distinct sections. Strong and important mountain passes had to be carried at every step of an invasion. Xerxes entered Greece practically in the ‘same manner that the Turks have in this imvasion, debouched on the plains around Larissa and overran Thessaly, only to find that he was little or no nearer the capture of Athens. An interesting phase of the present war fs seen in the repetition of history adready Geveloped and likely to develop. The pre- ‘vailing trait of the people of Greece today, as it has been in the past, ts local patriot- ism combined with intense ambition. Their local attachments are only equalled by their hatred of the Turks. Their present position of being ground between the upper and lower mill stones, between Turks and Christians, is no new one. For hundreds of years they have beeen in conflict, stern and unyielding, with the Moslems. Since the year 1400, Greeks have: been butchered and sold into slavery by both Turks and Christians. Turkey and Venice, in the old days, vied with cach other-in-eruelties to- wards this land. The people, cut into shreds, yet in the 19th century were able to rise and fight a herculean, magnificent fight for freedom. In that war thousands upon thousands of Greeks feil, yet the monarchy was established and has pros- pered. The Grecian war for independence against Turkey was ig many respects simi- lar to the present conflict. _It.was marked by internal troubles and by horrible bru- talities practiced by the Turkish soldiers. The Greek navy showed its clear suprem- acy over the Turkish marines and then, as today, practically every government in Europe opposed the Greek effort for free- dom. The old, old story was sung and re- sung. The Christian governments an- nounced that the integrity of Turkey must be maintained, that otherwise the balance of power in Europe would be disturbed. At that time this position was taken by every government in Europe. The people of the European nations, however, took a different view of the brave struggle for ra- tional life and gradually the governments were forced to adopt a more liberal pclicy towards Greece. After Turkey had ent tically conquered she made the mistake of firing on the ailied fleet and that fact as- sured the Grecian independence. It is not at all unlikely that the people of the Euro- pean governments will again force their rulers to adopt a policy more in keeping with Christianity than the one they have hitherto pursued. It is of interest, too, that the present reigning family in Greece was nominated to the throne by England. They are allied by marriage and by in- terest with Russia and in sympathy with the old-time ambition of that country to push its way into Constantinople. All these matters may be found to be of im- portance in the settlement of the present war. ———_++ 2 ____ France's Calamity. The dreadful fire that raged yesterday in Paris, costing scores and perhaps hundreds of lives, is a national calamity, at which the whole world shudders. A great assem- blage of men and women was caught in the twinkling of an eye in the midst of a fur- nace from which escape was possible to but a few and only by means of the most desperate struggles. The almost immediate destruction of the flimsy building showed how little attention had been paid in its construction to the possibility of such a calamity. Nothing quite like this holocaust has occurred since the great theater fire in Vienna some years ago, when many scores of lives were burned and crushed out in a few moments. = Mr. Bayard, after remarking that Mr. Cleveland is the logical democratic nem- inee for 1909, jould ave gone further and assured a flippant and somewhat scep- tical public that this was no idle after-din- ner pleasantry. oe There wi'l be many regrets that Mr. Ma- son did not get his business-facilitating system fuliy in operation before the Senate took hold of the tariff. ae The 1ew Secretary of Agriculture should order gn invesiigation to see whether things are being properly run in the warm wave division. —___—__+e-—___—__ Only one hundred and ninety-two men labored on the post office building today. ——— wee It is the Dingley-Jones bili now. ———___ +++ —____ SHOOTING STARS.
