CANADA SHARES PRAISE
( Continued' From First Page.)
progressive in the .sense that we do not
intend to keep up with the procession
In a development that shall work more
and more Justice to all: but I do mean to
say that the long-continued training of a
people in self-government is certain to
produce a conservatism that cannot be
expected in a people that are newly
come to self-government and who suffer
more violent reactions on that account.
Xot that we are perfect in the United
States: not that we don't need a great
many reforms. I can mention one that
always comes to my mind and that is
necessary reform in the administration
of the criminal law, but when you look
back and see the progress that we have
made in many directions, I think we may
congratulate ourselves on living In an age
in which we are making progress, in
which the people are more sensitive than
they ever were before to the criticisms
that we are not holding ourselves up to
the right Ideals.
More Tower to Government.
"There will come undoubtedly, as our
country becomes more and more popu
lated, as others press upon us, the neces
sity for conservation of our resources,
there will come a test of the practical
operation of our system of state and Xa
tlnnal governments.
"And it will doubtless be found that
at times that system does not work as
well to accomplish the reforms we are
after as a system in which the Federal
Oovernrnent has much more power and it
may be that in some directions it will be
found necessary to enlarge somewhat the
central power, but I have an abiding
faith in the Constitution of the United
States as It was marvelously framed by
that body of patriots and lawyers and
statesmen, in simple language, bearing
an elastic construction to meet conditions
that they In their wildest imagination
could not have foreseen.
"And therefore, while in some compara
tively unimportant matters we may have
to change that relation. I feel certain that
the Constitution as it is will furn4sh to us
the Instrument of continuing the growth
of the United States in the right direc
tion, towards our highest Ideals, and per
mit us still to maintain that system, dif
ficult for others to understand, but which
we ourselves love, that indestructible
union of Indestructible states."
AVorld's Debt to France.
Mr. Root, In his speech at the bar
racks, reviewed the history and the
causes of English and French coloniza
tion In America and ti.e conflict for su
premacy which ensued. That conflict
had its beginning when Champlaln fired
the shot which killed the chief of the
Mohawks at Tlconderoga and thereby
earned the enmity of the Iroquois for
France. He said In part:
The world owes many debts to Franc.
1
HQM
Xot the least of these Is the InsDlratlon the
men of every race can rind in the noble ex
amples of such explorers as Nicollet and
Jollet and La Salle; such leaders as Cham
plaln and Frontenac and Duquesne and
Montcalm: and such missionaries as La
Caron and Brabneuf and Marquette.
Why France Lost New World.
In all this interesting and romantic story
may be seen two great proximate causes
of the French failure and the English suc
cess; two reasons why from Quebec to the
Pacific we speak English, follow the course
of the common law, and estimate and main
tain our rignts according to the principles
of English freedom.
fine of these was the great inferiority of
itimaii nines oi tne r renen and the
great superiority of the Indian allies of the
Ensllah; the effective and enduring organ
ization, the warlike power, of the Iroquois
and their fidelity to the "covenant chain"
which bound them to our fathers. The
other cause lies deeper. It Is that peoples,
not monarchs: settlers, not soldiers, build
empires: that the spirit of absolutism in a
royal court is a less vital principle than the
spirit of liberty In a nation.
In these memorial days let there be
honor to Champlaln and the chivalry of
France; honor to the strong, free hearts of
the common people of England, and honor
also to the savage virtues, the courage and
loyal friendship of the Long House of the
Iroquois.
Tart at Catholic School.
Early in the day the President mo
tored to Cliffhaven, half a mile from
Bluff Point, where lie addressed a
large gathering at the Catholic Bummer
School of America. Returning later to
the Hotel Champlaln. ne received
the foreign Ambassadors: Governors
Hughes and Prouty, members of the
Xew York State legislature and others
of the guests. While this was going
on the Indian pageants which have
proved an attractive feature of the
week's celebration were given on the
floating island, which had been towed
up from Fort Tlconderoga during the
night and anchored at the mouth of the
Saranac River.
A luncheon was given by Smith M.
Weed, at his residence In this city, to the
distinguished guests.
The President's welcome at the Cath
olic Summer School was a hearty one,
and the edifice was packed to the doors.
At the President's right on the platform
was Cardinal Gibbons, while on his left
was Governor Hughes.
President Taft devoted his address
mainly to his dealings with the Catholic
Church in the Philippines as having a
bearing on the present celebration.
"I am not a Catholic," said he, "but I
have had in the past few years a great
deal to do with the church.
"I think we are reaching a point In
this country where we are very much
more tolerant of everything and every
body than In the past, and where we are
giving Justice when? justice ought to be
given.
Bigotry Thing of Past.
"We are no longer cherishing the nar
row prejudices that come from denomina
tion bigotry, and we are able to realize
In the past these great principles in re
ligion and in Christian faith and appre
ciate the virtues they exhibited and fol
low the examples they Bet for us.
"Religious tolerance is rather a mod
ern invention. Those of us of Puritan
ancestry have been apt to think we were
the Inventors of religious tolerance. Well
as a matter of fact, what they were In
favor of. If I can speak for Purltan ances
try, was In having a right to worship
God as they pleased, and have every
body else worship God in the same way
But we have worked that out now. and
there has been a great change. I am sure
and his eminence, the cardinal, will
agree with me even in the last 25 years."
'I am gratified to say now that every
question between the church and the state
in the Philippines which were eo closely
united that it seemed almost impossible
to make a separation of the two. as it
had to be made under our constitution
has been settled fairly and justly to both
sides, and no bad taste or injustice ex
ists on either side with respect to this
question."
Cardinal Gibbons addressed the gather
ing briefly when the President had con
cluded. He indorsed what the President
had said about religious liberty as true
and expressed a profound sense of grat
itude for the presence of the President
and Governor Hughes:
He expressed the opinion that after the
week of speechmaking the President's
avoirdupois "Will not be quite so much
as It is now."

ROME, Jury 7. A serious disturbance
occurred In the Chamber of Deputies to

This declaration caused a great tumult.
Slgnor Schanzer, Minister of Posts and

THE MORNING
TARIFF IS READY
FOR FINAL BALLOT
Senate to Vote on Adoptibn of
the Whole Bill This
Afternoon.
LAST SKIRMISH IS LIVELY
Income Tax Receives Deathblow, but
Corporation Tax Imposed on
Holding Companies Cus
toms Court Created.
WASHINGTON, July 7. With a general
understanding that the nnal vote on the
tariff bill should be taken by 4 o'clock
tomorrow afternoon, the Senate adjourned
at 7 o'clock this evening. The arrange
ment for a vote tomorrow was arrived at
aa an alternative for a session tonight.
It Is expected that the bill as per
fected will receive practically all of the
Republican votes, while it is understood
that probably all the Democrats with the
exception of McEnerj' of Louisiana, will
vote against it- When passed, the
measure will be hurried to the House,
which Is expected to be in session Friday
morning to receive it.
Income Tax Finally Killed.
The income tax question, including the
corporation tax provision and inheritance
tax. received much attention In the Sen
ate today and the straight income advo
cates were afforded the opportunity to
get a vote in favor of the income tax as
opposed to the corporation tax. The In
come tax was defeated by 48 to 7 and
with the corporation tax provision secure
ly established as a part of the bill, there
was considerable effort to amend It.
In one case this effort was successful.
Clapp of Minnesota has been a severe
critic of the provision ever since its in
troduction because it excluded "hold
ing" companies. He renewed his criti
cism today and was supported in his
views by other Senators. The ultimate
result was the acceptance by Aldrich of
an amendment by Clapp striking out the
exemption of such companies.
Customs Court Adopted.
X'ext to the income tax the discussion
of the customs court was the big feature
of the day. Clapp intimated that the
court would owe its existence largely
to the places where its sessions would be
held, and Borah asserted that It3 crea
tion was an Impeachment of the present
Judiciary. Aldrich and Lodge defended
the court. The debate resulted in the
acceptance of the finance committee's
amendment providing for the court by a
non-partisan vote of 49 to 27, after St.
Louis and Detroit had been inserted as
places in which it could sit.
Will Tax Holding Companies.
During the debate on Clapp's amend
ment making holding companies liable
for the corporation tax, Aldrich said It
was well known that personally he was
not especially enamored of the corpora
tion tax.
"No company," he continued, "is ex
empted by this amendment (the tax),
the provisions of which In every line
have had the approval of the President
of the United States, including the pro
vision which It Is now sought to vote
out of the bill." That provision, he said,
merely avoided double taxation by not
requiring a company holding stock to
pay a tax upon it when that tax had
already been paid.
Bacon offered, and the Senate by 27 to
45 rejected, an amendments exempting
from the tax mercantile corporations
whose gross receipts are less than 1B0,
000 annually.
Offering an amendment to limit the tax
to corporations engaged in oil or sugar
refining and those manufacturing articles
on the dutiable list, Newlands demanded
an aye-and-nay vote. On motion of Al
drich, the motion was laid on the table,
46 to 24.
Last Efforts to Amend.
When Aldrich moved tor an agreement
on all paragraphs which Senators do not

notice of another Income-tax amendment.
He indicated a desire further to amend
the maximum and minimum provisions
of the bill together with the plan for a
court oi appeals ana countervailing du
ties. Aldrich's reauest for a vntn n
unreserved paragraphs was granted, and
ine amendments were adopted en bloc
without division.

Aldrich Clashes With Dick.
"We cannot now," he said, "undertake
to Increase the rati to me. ihA ..i-
of individual Senators."
"If," he added, "we should enter tipon
that course, we might as well nnanHnn
the bill."
Dick was not nleaserl viih v.i-
turn of affairs, and he entered a motion
to reconsider the vote by which the
paragraph was adopted. He was suc-
ttfcPlUl.
The next clash was with the junior
Senator from Ohio r? 1 1 t-t nn an i .a
reference to the paragraph fixing a duty
on clays and earths. Burton wanted
to amend that provision so as to put
crude asphalt on the free list, but after
considerable parliamentary maneuvering,
the Senate, on motion of Aldrich!
laid on the table a motion by the Ohio
Senator to reconsider the vote by which
the paragraph had been adopted. AH
committee amendments In the schedules
relating to chemicals, earthenware, met
als, lumber, agricultural products, spir
its, cotton, flax, wool, silks and paper
and wood pulp were agreed to.
Aldrich accepted a provision plac
ing tar and oil-spreading machines used
in the construction of roads on the free
list. The first aye and no vote of the
day was on Bristow's amendment
to restore the Dingley rate on writing
paper by reducing the duty. It was re
jected by the close vote of 34 to 33.
Bacon moved to put plows and cot
ton gins on the free list, but his amend
ment was voted down 28 to 50.

that Is to be brought into existence to

matter what the circumstances may

entitled to justice to be judged by
men who are not predetermined against
them."
Newlands made a speech declaring
that the bill did not carry out Re
publican pledges and that the only
alternative to a veto which President
Taft had was to accept the bill and
press for ameliorating legislation later.
He made a plea for a rational tariff
system which would gradually elimin

advocated a declaration that we do

7148 societies. The Congregatlonalists
are third, with 6454 societies. Next
come the Baptists, with 3497 societies.

the enumeration of the long list of de
nominations and their subdivisions that
are represented In our movement. When
