Little Likelihood of Effective

MR. TAFT IN A QUANDARY.
Fears Attempt to Keep Ante-election

tional Fight Trust Contribution to

Consumers Cabinet Making Gossip.
By WILLIS J. ABBOT.
Most significant of the week's devel
opment was the report that President
Elect Taft may, probably will, throw
the weight of his Influence against
Speaker Cuunon for re-eloctlon. While
this report lacks absolutely authentic
confirmation, the situation warrants
at least the assertion that Mr. Taft is
worried lest the wiutt-r's legislative
program for hotiest revision of the
tariff be abortive.
In Washington In well Informed cir
cles the belief Is general that tlie ma
jority members of the ways and means
committee are more or less committed
In advance to an attempt to prevent
effective readjustment of the sched
nles. This was the status up to the time
the statemeut eiuauntod from Ilot
Springs, Va., whore Judge Taft Is
"resting," tbut he was debating the
Advisability of quietly hlutin to his
friends that tLavir opiunllion to Mr. j
Cannon's re-election would more firm
ly Insure the carrying out of the law
making policies to which he avers he
Is pledged, thorough revision of the
tariff being ou of thera.
It Is :M with every show of truth
that the progressive followers of the
president elect are troubled lest their
support of the UUiuaoi for chief execu
tive, w IQj eoiucklauial support of Mr.
Sherman for ice pridont, proves to
have onuiiiilued tiuuu to a program of
do not liiuj;.
These thi'ags, therefore, have offered
to Mr. Taft the alternative of accept
ing Hie stand pat element of the dom
inant party as part itnd parcel of th
administration or stirring a party tight
the c.juul of wtuch for bitterness lias
not bo :i v. Iti'.esavd in American poli
tics --i:i c h .1 ar time.
It is tiotlriable that when the news
of Jti.l-i' T.ifl'a kiuiviw.tl attitude of j
mliul I'l'. a;.,' puMic alarm took !
session i f ike ioll!icins and newspa- j
pers of reactJoiuiry tetideucitw. and (
they began to warn again splitting
the dotnluaut party Into warring fac- !
tlous. Party harmony has therefore :
furuls'.ied texts for imtnerixis liotvtlies, J
and .Imlge Taft lias lieen abnrnlnntly j
advised as to wliat will itmkd or wreck j
his ailiiuiiistt-atieii. I
The Lumber Schedules. j
I be.iew that the foregoing nsser-j
tioiis will not be questioned by any
can:1 id bM-rver iu Witsliliijrtnu. and.
lonUlir, at them from a more partisan i
vie n!. leiiiiM-r:tt cannot avoid i
Wonili-ra I'm that any one could have .
expoi tul anything ols to develop.
The election of Jamtts SehoolorHft
Sherman as vice preslilout wus hi
dorseini'iit of the ataiitl pat HemMieaus,
and it Is regarded as pttsslug Kt range
that after such tudorsenwnt hiis been
given with consent of the Taft Repub
licans the president elect can consist
ently make war on his fellow candi
date and those who obviously beloug
to the reactionary element of latter
lay politics.
Apropos, t here f on. is th fact of the
current hearings before the commit
tee ou ways and tneiuis. quite gener
ally pulUc opinion In ttm national cap
ital has nettled to the belief that the
committee Is committed to the holding
f preteuded investigations. Champ
Clark, who will be minority leader,
aid to me In substance:
"When John la!zeil arises In his
place and evince intention to revise
the tariff thoroughly, then will I be
lieve that the tariff Is to be revised
thoroughly. Under (Mnnlltiotw of the
present moment, judged by conditions
as tliey have existed for some time,
these ways aud means hearings ap
pear to be faivleal. At the best they
aeem to be merely to imiko a surface
bowing of redeeming the platform
pledges of the Ucpubll.-uu party. Hut
that the real evil of ton high d titles is
to be cured 1 haven't tlie least idea."
It Is true, however, that the entire
scheme relating to lumber duties as
iepared secretly through tlie ways
and means committee may be prevent
ed. I.ate In the week bints were giveTi
that the Incoming adiiiinlatrHtiou was
pledged to removal of duties on sev
eral important articles (,f commerce,
notably liinu.cr, steel and coal. A sig
nificant event . f the week was the
appearance before a meeting of lum
bermen In Washington of Forester
rinchot, w ho ipilte tlatly declared that
he Is at this time favorable to the re
moval of the duty.
"Conservation of our forests Is the
fundamental Issue underlying my pro
posal," Mr. Plnchot said. "If there be
another method better than removal of
the duty whereby we may save our
forests from early destruction, I shall
be ftlad to learn of It."
Inasmuch sm Mr. I'incbot Is known
to stand lilj.ii In the present adminis
tration aud to have epril weight with
the Incoinlng chief executive, his ut
terances nre properly regarded ns ln
Clcatlve of trouble for the stand pat
majority members of tho ways and
means committee, anil It In easily with
in the rmurrV nf possibility t;,n't ii,(,s
rc'tl'al politicians Vho nrmrirvd In
Advance wlvtt should l-.e tht new
schedules will discover that they hate
made promises which llcy cannot
keep.
It is indisputable that precisely the
name arrangement was ei'i'ecteu with
the sugar men as with the lumbermen.
Likewise oilier indiisirles were Includ
ed In the pre-election aud ante-session
plans. Pressure from the masses of
the middle west and southern states
and the Pacific coast states Is regard
ed as the explanation of the change In
conditions which may eveutuate In
spoiling the plans of the stand patters
and loading on to the broad shoulders
of Judge Taft the onus of party inter
necine warfare which may go with
him to the end of his administration.
Election Aftermath.
"William Neteon Cromwell, $2o,000,"
is the official record of one man's cam
paign contribution to the Republican
fund this year. Of course this Is that
same Cromwell who is now aud has
been prominently connected with the
legal affairs of the Standard Oil's af
fairs and close to E. H. Harrfman,
Standard Oil's railroad manager.
As election aftermath this single Hue
from the report of Treasurer Sheldon
of the Republican national committee
should uause moisture to grow oa the
spectacles of those righteous Republic
an leadacs who "hinted in tones of
thunder'' that Standard Oil was pay
ing money to the Bryan fund. Ku
passant, let it be observed that eaxu
and several of the largest trusts of the
natiou wwe alongside of II r. Cromwell
as heavy contributor to the Taft fund
that hi. those trusts were represent
ed by their visible beads nud manag
ing raaguates, such as J. Plvrpont Mor
an fwr the Steel urprutlon et al.
Kiting llko Bd.uu's ghost to affright
the dcuilunnt party corns the specter
of high- freight rates. Truflic assw-
claUoas are actually tnjtugud iu writ

litical basket.
That l his measure will become an
Issue ngalu this wlutur I am lufjrued
in a manner uwt permitting unbelief.
The philosophy behind the movement
is: Under existing law, when shippers
desire lower freight rates, they first
must petition the commission aud then
prove that the rates askwd for are rea
sonable aud not confiscatory.
These shipper thurefure argue that
when the railroads desire higher rates
they shuuld prove that the proposed
rates are not confiscatory us to the
shippers' business.

With the tariff and freight rate in

the Republicans who direct events Just
now have plenty to worry about, for
there remains the trust Issue as yet
