DEC. 10. .1915 What is the difference whion party takes the tariff oof of politics, so long as It is done? It oarj make no differ . eooe whether Taft was at the head of things when it was aooompliabed, or whether it is done nnder the Wilson regime. The kernel of the matter is that tba tariff should do longer be at the meroy of either the two tig polit ioal organizations of this nation, to be bolted ont of the toz at every obange of party administration, disorganizing the oomnjerou of the country and par alyzing business interests. Aside from national military preparedness, Ibis is . the most vital question confronting the people of the United States today. Taft discovered that the Payoe-Aldrioli act was tbe best he oonld get ont of his party in the way of a partisan tar iff, and it was he who proonred a pro vision in that law whioh profiled for a tariff commission, though of limited powers. In 1012, roth the Republican and Progressive platforms adopted thn policy of giving the tariff over to com mission regulation. Now, from Sec retary MaAdoo, in a speeab made at Denver, be is quoted as saying that the administration la trying to take tbe tariff out of politios. Well, why then does nut the administration take it out of politios? It has eveiytbing to do it with, inoinding even Repub lican seualois who are now and have been favorable to tbe obange. Fact ol the matter is, and tboie'g no use trying to play away from it, tbe Dem ocratic parly ot today is hedged in with a ting of leaders ot theold wheel horse, inle-or-ruin btaod, who sleep on and live on in the grand old fossilized theory n( free-trade-aod lariB-for-tev- enue only, ao that they oannotsee any thing bnt a free polioy, and in follow log this polioy they drive their gov ernment of tbe oonntry to tbe opposite extreme to that wbiah the bigb pro tective polioy standpatters of tbe Re publican pirty drive it when in oon trol. This nation is now aud for years hat been oonfrcnting conditions under ' i"h her people become stranded at tbe very moment either at the ex tremes of high proteotive tariff or free trade it reaobed. The leaders of botb political parties know this but ate standing in the way of anything and eveiytbing advanced wblob favors the level of a happy medinm between the two extreme;. For instance, with thn enoimous expense which will naturally be iuonrred In remodeling the navy and'providlug for au increased army, where will tbe Democratic adminis tration gel off with tha canting ca pacity cf tha Underwood lutllf euhed ole? The in on me tax will provide iiolbiug toward army or navy; it has all it oau 'cover now. Under Demo cratic Uritr legulatlout, to fur, living hat not deorensed in oosl, so there Is ii; benefit Lu Hint respect. We can arrive at tut ono oonolneion, and that Is that the tariff lu tho hands of either putty is not administered wisely oar well, and the sooner It is given over to experts to rovieo sad ooutiol, the sooner the oonntry will adjust itself to permanont business basis, and ono take oare of national preparedness on the cululde.
