Tariff Commissions.
The Democratic Congress which re
cently adjourned, contemptuously dis-1
missed the non-partisan1 tariff board
which, at the instance of President
Taft, had been making exhaustive
and scientific investigations into tar
iff problems. Valuable "information
when the ' board had gathered was
thrown away by the Democrats, who
proceeded to draft their tariff bills in
the secrecy of the committee room.
In abolishing the. tariff board, the
Democrats had the aid of some of
those who are now loud in support of
the Third Term Party. The leader
and standard bearer of that party in
his speeches in a recent article in his
magazine, likewise had treated the
board with contempt. However, he
urges the establishment of a new sort
of tariff commission.
In accrdance with the habit of his
mind, he turns to Germany for his
ideal of such a commission. It is a
curious fact that, though always as
serting his belief in the ability of the
people to rule, he invariably selects
a rigid bureaucratic model whenever
proposing new governmental machin
ery for this republic.
While the Democrats and the Third
termers are condemning, more by si
lence than by direct attack, the Amer
ican tariff commission, it is interest
ing to observe that from Europe
come words of appreciation. Thus,
in discusing the American itarifE
board's report on wool, an official of
the Royal Imperial Ministery of Com
merce of Austria, regarded as the
leading European authority on the
tariff question, said:
"It is an excellent standard work.
The tariff board has come within a
very, short) time to the head of all
the similar boards established a long
time since in other countries. It is
really true that no legislative body
ASSOCIATION, H.
MORNING ENTERPRISE " THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER"; 1912
Did You Take Out
has ever been presented to it a bet
ter report on the tariff question. It
will also be entirely impossible not
to take your "results in mind in pro
ceeding to a revision on tariff. It
would be a great mistake to stop the
work of the board, and it would soon
prove necessary to re-establish it."
So while we have a Thirdtermer
urging the adoption, of a European
system of tariff commission for the
United States, the European, author
ity on the subject is holding up our
commission which the Democrats
and Thirdtermers destroyed, as a
model for the jvorld.
j The incident illustrates the evil
worked to the cause of good govern
i ment in the. United States by parti-
zan and factional jealousy and sel
' fishness.
LOWELL FAVORS SELLING
i Opponent in Primary Supports Him a
I Regular Party Nominee.
I In giving his unqualified indorse
! ment of the candidacy of Ben Selling,
progressive Republican nominee for
United States Senator, Judge Stephen
A. Lowell, an opponent of Mr. Selling
in the primary election, said recently:
"Senator Selling is the regular con
stituted nominee of the party. He has
been a burden bearer in the past poli
tical contests and is entitled, under all
rules of the game, to his reward. He
is a progressive Republican, not only
today, but was such when it took
some courage to occupy advanced
ground. He is a substantial business
man, with a home and interests in the
state. Why shotfld any honest man
who believes in fair play in politics,
as well as in every day affairs, refuse
to support his candidacy. I am with
him to the end and he ought to win
by 10,000 plurality in November."

TWO RULERS.
When Emperor Mutsuhito of Japan
died one of the usefully great men of
our day passed away.
When Abdul -Hamid, the Turkish
ruler, was deposed, one of the most
cruel and useless men of his genera
tion was got r!d of.
Mutsuhito became emperor in 1867
at fifteen years of age. In 1889 he
changed the government from an abso
lute monarchy by voluntarily giving
his people a constitution Japan's first
great forward step.
He sent representatives to foreign
countries and received like officials at
his court in Tokyo an entirely new
procedure. He sent young Japanese
into other countries to be educated.
In uniting the provinces into one na
tion he stirred up a rebellion which he
put down, but
Note the difference:
Abdul Hamid put to death every
revolutionist who dared to show his
head. Mutsuhito promoted his ene
mies to offices of responsibility.
Making his wife his confidant and
companion, by his example the Japa
nese emperor put the womanhood of
his country on a footing with its man
hood. . )
Abdul Hamid by his harem debased
and cruelly abused womanhood.
The Japanese emperor early under
took measures for the national defense
In order to provide money he and the
empress agreed to reduce the bouse
hold expenses so they might contribute
annually 300,000 yen for the building
up of the army and navy. .
The Japanese victory over the Rus
sians justified the foresight v
Abdul Hamid, on the other hand,
dissipated the revenues of his govern
ment In maintaining his army of
guards and spies.
Mutsuhito died at sixty years of
age, a world figure, loved and ven
erated by his countrymen. Abdul
Hamid was deposed for his cruelty
and rascality by the Young Turks
party, and no one cares whether he
Is living or dead.
The real ruler of his people en
couraged education, elevated woman,
forwarded progress. The nominal ruler
encouraged ignorance and superstition,
degraded women and was a brutal re
actionary. The Turkish ruler distrusted his
friends. Mutsuhito forgave his ene
mies. Seldom has our day afforded such an
antithesis so startling a contrast be
tween men higher up. And yet
