Instead of general revision that la th newest phase of the tariff situation In Washington, Commercial agreements designed to Increase our ! export trad through concessions In certain schedules of our tariff that ex cite criticism would. It Is urged, form a policy to be sharply and wholly differ entiated from tariff revision. Thslr advocates declare that such agreements would remove the cause of friction be tween factions of Republicans and would remove the cause of friction be tween factions of Republicans and ' would be consistent with protection and i the precept of McKinley and of ' Ulngloy. Tariff Biseussed. The prevalent Impression that the tariff situation In Washington Is qui escent Is emphatically erroneous. NO topio Is more earnestly and persistently (discussed, although beneath the sur- face, among members of both brsnches of congress and between members of th cabinet. ' This Is true despite the well-known fact that tariff revision would be " sheer Impossibility at this session snd ' despite also the fact -that the subject . has not been considered formally In the ' cabinet, however much It has been dls ...cuaaed among members of th adminis tration. Tbs marked omission in the president's comprehensive message of , '. all refers ry to th tariff save as af fecting the Philippines, has stimulated expectancy that there is more to come from the White House upon, this sub ject - la congress. It .Is true now ss be . for th November election that the tand-fSttera are In control and' that the -- -- I - - . . L i CASTOR I A Tor IafuiU and, Children.

But Inquiry among ths Re publican majority discloses that the "stand-pat" sentiment is not so stiff and unyielding by far as It was six months sgo. Not a few of the strong est: protection .Republicans object to the phrase "stand-pat." claiming that It does not now correctly describe their attitude, which Is not on of obstinate refusal to recognise th necessity of i action at some time, but rather that of claiming; . that . th . time baa not yet come.- . - . , . Teddy atus Start It, Nevertheless, ths opponents of early tariff revision are stiff enough in their attitude to make it clear that If the Republican majority Is to take any ac tion at all, of whatever description, the Initiative must com from the adminis tration. In anticipation of some rec ommendation by th president, in the form of a special message, speculation has within a few days taken a new turn; and that is whether the president may not advise the entire separation of general tariff revision from a plan by which commercial treaties msy be negotiated, on ths basis of making con cessions In some of the present sched ules that protectionists admit could be cut with Justice and advantage to the domestic consumer. This would be a way of reducing customs duties here and there In the present law, without disturbing business prosperity at home, while , affording opportunities for ' In creasing our export trade through treat ies. It is ths acute situation with regard to Germany, that has brought forward tbs suggestion that authority to nego tiate such treaties be made the policy upon which all Republicans could unite. Instead of . general tariff revision"? It Is -urged that such a plan would be consistent with th tradition of Mo Klnley and Plngley, alnce both, the tar Iff acta bearing their names eontala a section providing for auch treaties; while It would meet th criticism that certain schedules jhav become out of Joint with changes In industrial condition.
