The Charleston News and Courier ' . several days ago had a very sensible ' 'editorial headed Tariff Reformjln New England, talcing the ground that the tariff will be too issue, ana me main I T 4. ... ....... tk. notlnn.1 iam- . i iaaury. uk.i j ,u . i . . j ,,..,u,.u. ........ patent Says the News and Courier ; The demand for tariff reform is ' . taking definite shape In Massacnu- setts and forcing Itself on an apa " thetlc democracy in other parts of the country. Henry M. Whitney ' has announced himself a candidate , ro governor on a tartrt revision ; r 3 platform, and the signs are that all - faction of the party in that state , - , will unite In his enthuslastlo sup fi' , port. .The striking feature of the Massachusetts situation, however, . ' v la that the republicans have for . their sole reliance In the contest against Whitney, Governor Curtis Guild, Jr., Who is to be accepted, , t as their 'logical candidate," not ,:.". ! because he la a republican, not be . J cause he is popular with the re--,- publican , politicians; but because . . he is tainted with the democratic views about the tariff,' having in , his campaign ; last year announced himself In ooosltion to the "stand , patters." ; , The Massachusetts re- publican virtually . confess that - : they have no hope of success on a tariff dllatoriness and do nothing. ' V' v The fair Inference from this is that ; " V whether Guild or Whitney carry Massachusetts next year, tariff re t, fofcm candidate for congress and president, will, carry the state in 1908. All New Englanders appear to be : '( awake to the truth that the salva ', .U tlon.of their Industries hinges upon i a modification, of the customs ' scheduled, and they are face to . face with the fact that the com mercial world Is arraying itself in v opposition to American policies of trade exclusion. New England newspapers declare flatly that the recent tariff adjustments with Ger- ', ' makeshift, and they put the coun- " try on notice that France is about to adopt the policy of energetic re f tallation. , . . Of course, the tariff will be the issue, and the main issue next year. f. .The republicans are not fools. En cased in indurated stubbornness. "Uncle Joe' Cannon will be either . : run over by or dragged on with X the procession of a party always . '. - canny in emergencies and capable ' of stealing the ammunition of Its : enemy. The republican party will " appeal to the country on a spec ' i ious. ennnliV and sufficiently de j s .-..; ceptlve tariff ' revision platform ' : unless the democratic party has V ' brains enough left to seize In ad- ranee a ' strong, clear and une ' . qulvoral position that will expose republican' insincerity by the bold ness and honesty of jta Contrast ' Is there na democrat with an eye . ." .. for ttlA ntftln ihnnh ttf Ma lurfvt ' There Is. 2I& News ' and Courier.

ASHLEY HORNE'S CANDIDACY. We are glad to see that Ashley Home of Clayton has - definitely an nounced his candidacy for governor. We always rejoice when a non-poll- tlcian citizen runs for office, for it Is a good sign, when the solid business men of North Carolina begin to take Interest in politics, and are willing to take the time from their affairs to stand for election, then the state will be in its best condition politically. Ashley Eorne is one of the men who have been at the forefront of the ma terial progress' of this commonwealth. Successful In his own affairs, he has never been found wanting when work was to be done for his community or state. As president of the North Caro lina Agricultural Society, he guided the great State Fair with notable suc cess. ' " ','" "' Between the questions of the plural of molasses, the birthplace of Andrew Jackson, Jonah and the whale and others of that ilk, some of our esteem ed contemporaries are in danger of re viving the methods of the scholastics of the middle ages, who used to argue for months, we are told, on how many angels could dance on the point of a fine needle. Between Chairman Adanis and Mar- Ion Butler and ex-Governor Russell and Judge. Purnell we arc tiding over the duU. season pretty well, getting something to sandwich In among col lege commencements. By the way, the penitentiaries are full of "undesirable citizens," but they are no longer citizens. When a man hecomes an "undesirable citizen." he ceases to be a citizen. We don't wonder that Corey was speretltlous about marrying his new wife on the 13th of the month. The man that would desert the wife of his youth for a fetching actress would be apt to be superstitious. r A -; Col. Hughes of Tennessee Is one man who did all the talking except three words on a visit to President Roose velt ": Wonder how the president looked while Col. Hughes) was "baking his fist In his face? It is understood that Attorney Rus- sell wilt' render no bill for his opin- ion on Judge Purnell. v Prevention of Railway . Accidents, Discussing in the Atlantic Monthly for May the" topic 'of' 'railway acci dents.'Mr. F. H. Dixon concludes that "the fundamental weakness of , American railroading from the stand point of safety ia the wide-spread and almost universal lack, of .discip line, We may strive to teach the standard of safety attained in other countries by double-tracking, abol- ishlng grade crossings and extending - the block system .but the real prob-: jlem is to "transfer to American soil i thing shows how fooilsh Is the fe '.the temperamen', of the - railway jpublcaa idea that we can shut rout vuipiuyea ui uiucr touuiries ana ou- tain the conservative conditions thnt affect Jthe employment of -labor there. Brlt-l?"rne 18t,n of .discipline is an American problem, to be grappled WaBWBBV sion which the unions are said to bring to bear to reinstate men dis charged for infractions of, rules," Mr. Dixon declines to pass final Judg ment. ' - The difficulties thug created are surmountable, he thinks, when handled by firm and tactful superin tendents. The public safety demands discipline at whatever cost. What is verymuch needed, for the accu initiation or useful information on this point and on other points, the writer thinks, is "the creation of a boa,rd for the proper. Investigation, by ' federal authority, of accidents upon Interstate railroads. Such a system has been recognized in prin ciple in England since 1840, and by formal statute since 1871. This law compels railroads to give notice to the railway department of the Board of Trade of any accident re sulting In loss of life or personal in Jury, or of any accident likely to have had such a ; result. Four In spectors detailed from the Royal Engineers, with several assistants, constitute; the investigating body. The inspector proceeds to the scene of the accident, clothed with power to hold an inquiry, summon any per son as a witness, and require the production of any relevant docu ment." The inquiry is informal, the purpose being to obtain information, not to inflict penalties. The inspect ors enjoy a life tenure, and as they are men of recognized ability and high character, their conclusions are almost Invariably accepted and acted upon by railroad officials. The sys tem of inspection has worked with unvarying succes, and Is probably the strongest single influence in cre ating that degree of immunity from accident which England enjoys." In this cpuutry investigations are made by members of state rail war" com missions who are not experts and whose suggestions carry no weight The inspections made by these bod ies are often merely Junketing trips over all the lines within the state. In view of "the personnel of the commissions in many states and the method of their appointment, little is to be hoped for," Bays the, author, from the kind of accident investiga tion they conduct What is badly needed, he declares, is "a, federal board of Inspection of long, if not permanent, tenure, consisting- c men of wide knowledge and un doubted integrity. The reports of such a board would be of incalcula ble value In our present perplexity. Baltimore Sun. Where the Tariff Hurts Trade. The Chicago Chronicle in an edi torial commenting on the recent con cessions in the tariff made by this government to placate Germany, says: "We may look for a general at tempt to readjust trade relations be tween this country and other coun tries by means of treaties. Our ex treme protectionists may be expected ft first to resist this movement' But when they come to face the alterna tive of making concessions In one way or another or becoming involved in tariff wars with most other coun tries they may And themselves con strained to choose the former.!'; ; Germany had threatened us wl. a tariff , war unless we-reduced,eur tariff schedules on certain Gorman manufactures. Jn other words, Ger many gave us to understand' that if we shot out her manufactures by a high tariff she would shot out American-manufactures by a retaliatory tariff. The powers that be at Wash ington saw that It would be a losing game for Che United" States and 'made a satisfactory arrangement with the German government. It wUl estab lish more reciprocal . trade relations between the vtwoV governments' ,and will enlarge the trade of .both ' . : France, however.
