Big Business and the Free Press. On April 4 there will be a special session of congress at which the tariff will undoubtedly- come up. At that session the American people hope that the most heinous robberies of the Payne-Aldrich Tariff will be eliminated. For this work they are depending not on one party or on the other, but on the free and untrammeled efforts of the free and untrarumcled congressmen of both parties. The ancient system by which the bi-partisan machine has emasculated things for the general good tnd at the same time injected those things which are for their own private profit and those special interests they represent, is well enough known to the American people or at least to those portions of the country like this, which have some fearless expression of things as they are. That the country as a whole knows that the present tariff was more than the more 'indefensibility" or the Woolen schedule "K" is due to a small group of national magazines that make it their policy to tell the truth about the national administration of the people's business. It would be hard in one way to give credit to all those who have performed the public service of tcllirg the truth. (If you want the list it will bo found to be the list of thoi-e magazines that protested against the attempt, of the postmaster general to put them out of the business.) IV-adors of thia paper know why this attempt was made. The magazines sometimes told uncomfortable truths. No magazine more- than Collier's has performed the publice service of truth telling that lias aroused a nation. Its Information has been accurate, its temper has been calm, but withal, it nan Iven fearless, yet patient with the patience of those that know or feel th;tf ihe Iruth will eventually make freedom. As a sample of what Collier's does lot us cite this paragraph from a recent issue. It is by Mark Sullivan. "There was never, in the palmiest days of the men who dominated iMcKinley, ho grosu an example of the control of organized wealth over legislation as look place in the Senate within eighteen months, and necesKJirily under Mr. Lodge's intimate observation the making of the I'ayneAldrich Tariff Kill. And there was never any spectacle more sordid than the crawling persons with itching palms, many of them New Knglanders who swarmed about the door of tin- committee room of Mr. Aldrich and Mr. Lodge in the month of April, 1JM9." The average reader of newspapers and magazines w ill not see anything particularly new about this. It is simply a concise explanation of what most of us know already ( and it was this same schedule that President Taft himself called "indefensible.")

f RUBBING UP THE ARMS. aid to Have Excellent Result In Case of Fainting. T When my wife faints, which Is miserably often, Mjrt a writer In tlio London medical Journal, the Lancet, I do not apply friction la the usual absurd wayrubbing backward and forward, which most alternately check and aeoelerot Ihe passnpo of the Wood-but, tnkln hold of one of her hands with my left hand. I place, the thumb and Anger of my right hand tight round her .wrist and then pass them firmly up toward her o11hw. Hating brought them back lvely to lho wrist. I pass them firmly up again, and when I hnve repeated the operatlou two or three times, sometimes on both arms, I have the pleasure of hearing Ihe ejaculation, "1 feel better now." When I first had recourse to this means of resuscitating my lady she exclaimed Instinctively on two different occasions, without being at all ware that I had had any particular Intention, ,,Oh, that la what I aeeni to want:" From the Invariable and Immediate effect of this mode of friction 1 natter myself that It Is not unworthy the notice of the medical practitioner In the friction of cholera patients, process which should U much oftener resorted to and more energetically persisted In thiut It co-T.-inr K

WHAT OTHERS SAY

KOjT give

reason!

Hut an Incident has occurred to make this one of the most remarkable paragraphs that has been written on the schedule K, on Ihe tariff, or on the woolen trust. (Notice, however, that the woollen trust . was not mentioned in this paragraph.)

The advert ining manager of the American Woolen Company sent a letter to Collier's requesting them to put the soft pedal on the work of Mark Sullivan. This was not done in the ordinary fashion. They did not frankly say, "We will withdraw our advertising If you do not come across." It was a statement that perhaps more advertising would be forthcoming if things were not said so frankly while Congress was in session considering the woolen schedule. And that this may be appreciated we reprint the following extracts . from the letter: "But It would be most unfortunate were I to try to favor Collier's Weekly in an action of this sort were Mr. Mark Sullivan to intentionally or otherwise repeat the same dose. "Mr. Wrood of the American Woolen Company Is particularly sensitive. In giving hla advertising to the magazines he does not try to put a bridle on their mouths or their opinions. He asks for fair play. "But Mr. William Wood does not feel that he should give this advertising and his money to publications who try to take from his very mouth the bread and butter on which he must live. Can you blame him?"

To speak of one man who has fought for the whole people: This is only one of the many times that Mark Sullivan has faced the machine, sometimes it is through that subtlest of subtleties as social ostracism at Washington sometimes it is through favors Bought to be done for Influence and embarrassment though of this we know nothing more than what Is the usual thing in Washington as to the bribes and intimidations: But here Is the Woolen Trust seeking to bribe a magazine to shut its mouth and here is a trust a special interest, a specially privileged company placing Itself In this position toward the free press of America w hich It is said to pursue toward men in public rife w hen it w ants things done.

Lest some unsuspecting and innocent business man think that Collier's has done an advertiser an injustice let him consider this: If the advertisement was designed, as other advertisements are designed, to sell goods, and only to sell goods, why need the American Woolen Company care what sort of editorial text appears opposite it? This raises the query: Is this advertising campaign, costing $100,000, designed to sell goods, or has it a different purpose?

This Is My Birthday

It Is not generally known that the subject of this birthday sketch today, although a woman, is the most powerful person in all Germany, except the Kaiser himself. She Is Rertha Krupp. or In her privato life. Frau von Bohlon und Halbach, owner of the famous Krupp Steel works, the greatest manufacturing plant for war weapons in the world. She employs about 70.000 men. Of those on the pay roll, about 6tOO are officials. Usually the general public is content to think that the Krupp Steel works at Essen turn out ordnance and let it go at that: but as a matter of fact, there is a great diversity of manufactures, and. In addition to the home factory there are proving grounds, collieries, iron ore mines and nearly half a dozen subsidiary steel plants. All this tremendous business has been founded on a discovery which

has been guarded w ith the most zealous care the manufacture of a superior quality of crucible nickel steel. This has produced cannon of a great strength, and comparatively light weight, but it is useful to the working pnrts cf engines which have to bear great strain, wheels, tires, axles, springs and the like. Fraun von Bohlon is called the Empress the richopt woman in the world the most powerful, the most influential. In addition to this specialty the Essen works turn out many other kinds, including open hearth, puddled, hard and Bessemer steel and alloys of steel, with also special grades of steel for motor cars, possessing high tensiled strength with elacticity and tenacity.

INSTRUCTION FOR NATIONAL GUARD From the Chicago Tribune. The government is turning the Mexican trouble to good account in one di

rection waen it makes use of the ou-f portunity to give national guardsmen j experience with army operations under conditions as nearly approaching, service as can be obtained without i war. The conjecture that the War Department is endeavoring to cover a lack of officers by placing the officers! of the guard in command may be dis-J missed. The benefit to be obtained by the state organizations from such, observation and study as they will, have opportunity for in Texas is suffi-j cient explanation and justification.' The disposition of the department to' weld together the two branches of the country's military service is intelligent and encouraging. j

JAPAN AND MAGDALENA BAY. From the New York Sun. It must have been with a feeling of weariness and impatience til at Huron t'chida. the Japanese ambassador to the United States, formally denied that Japan had asked Mexico for a concession of territory on Magdalena bay to establish a naval coaling station there. There has been no more fanciful notion to account for the military and naval activity on the frontier and coasts of Mexico than the rumor that the purpose of the administration was to prevent the consummation of a secret agreement by which Japan would secure a naval base on the Pacific coast.

For Making Loan to Defunct Trust Company.

New- York, March 20. There were three important developments in the grand jury's investigation into the affairs of the defunct Carnegie Trust company. The district attorney announced that Andrew Carnegie may be called as a witness. It was stated that Joseph G. Robin, who has pleaded guilty to larceny in connection with his banking operations, probably will be the principal witness tomorrow. It came out in the text of a letter made public that William J. Cummins, a directing head of the Carnegie Trust company, will be recommended to Charles H. Hyde, the city chamberlain, who supervises the deposits of city money, by. Jordan J. Rollins, now counsel for the state banking department. Thousands of dollars of city funds have been tied up in the failure of the trust company and in Robin's institutions. With regard to Mr. Carnegie, district attorney Whitman made this statement : "The books of the trust company show that Andrew Carnegie loaned it vast sums of money. He never got it, back, and I think it is doubtful if he ever will get it back. "It is more than likely that Mr. Carnegie will be asked to tell the grand

jury about these loans. He will be called if the evidence shows that his testimony is necessary."

IMPROVEMENT. From the Chattanooga New s. It Is evident that something has been gained from our blunders In 189S.

The army may not be up to European j standards in the matter of organiza- j tion for mass movements, but the'

steady and persistent work of the War Department and the general staff has had the expected results. The same comparison would be true if made of the navy in 1S9S and that of 1911.

PLATINUM. From the New York Tribune. Platinum is going up in price, and is now much more costly than gold. Pretty soon fashion will have to turn Its back on the cheaper metal, and then all the adulation lavished on gold by the poets and romancers will lose its pertinence to twentieth century leaders. Hut it will make the up-to-date poet tear his hair when he has to find a rhyme for platinum.
