The phrase "tariff reform-' In English politics means exactly the opposite of what it means In the I'nlted States. In England tne "tariff reformers" are those who pro pose to establish protection as the guiding principal of the British customs system Instead of free trade. The principle of free trade, for which the Anti-Corn Laws league, under the leadership of Cobden and Bright, made such a memorable fight has been accepted for many decades as the settled policy of the United Kingdom. In Amerloa the "tariff reformers" are those who believe In a reduction Of the tariff duties from a protective principle to a merely revenue scale, or to free trade; al though they have been almost entirely swallowed up by the "tariff revisionists," who believe In a reduction of the tariff duties, but In maintaining the protective principle. Customs duties In Engtand are laid on spirits, tobacco, sugar, tea and other, non cc'mpntlrig articles. It Is the nearest ap proach to free trade existing In any great nation. The first note of dissatisfaction, with the system was sounded In Birmlng-hem- about seven or eight years ago, and In 1908 Mr. Joseph Chamberlain organ ised the Tariff Reform league. This or ganization, working Independently of party because neither conservatives nor liberals would have anything to do with It, has succeeded in creating a great public senti ment In favor it protection. The result of the present election cannot properly be con strued to be the verdict of the people on this question, since so many other Issues were Involved. But It Is not to be dis puted that Mr. Chamberlain and his Tariff Reform league were successful in forcing the conservative party to adopt tariff re form as Its .-.Met slogan In the battle against the budget "Hat'ds off ;he people's food!" "Tax land, not loaves!" These and similar cries from the radicals were met by tory argu ments: "Tax the foreigner!" "Tariff re form means bett?r times!" "Protection means higher wages and more work!" Everywhere and all the time during the campaign the tariff was a live question. When the liberal .speakers denounced the House of Lords, almost the only hostile remarks from the audience would he from some enthUHlaitic believer In protection. It Is not the Intention to discuss In this article the relative merits of tariff reform and free trade In England, but the Ameri can onlooker could not fall to be amued by the campaign conducted for and against protection. It was like a moving picture review of all that has been said and done about the tariff In America from the time of the Walker tariff to the day of the Payne-Alflrlch act. 1 he tariff reformers, which means practically all of the conservatives, ad vanced two reasons and one excuse for their new faith In protection. They de clared It necessary to protect British man ufacturers from the competition of products of cheap factories and poorly paid labor of other countries; they declared It the part of wisdom to tax the foreigner Instead of the Englishman; and they said It was a substitute for the land tuxes and other objectionable features of the budget. In-. support of these doctrines, with amus ing Inconsistency, but not without dis tinguished precedent, they appealed to the voters by speeches, by posters, by leaflets, and by songs, to support the conservatives because the liberal government had taxed tobacco and beer. ' The liberals. In opposing the protective idea, made the most of the proposed taxes on breadstuff, and devoted most of their argument to the cost of bread. "Tax land, not loaves," was tha burden of their song. "Tariff reform will make happier dukes," screamed the posters, developing the charge that the dukes, objecting to the tax on their lands, wanted protection in order to put the tax on the poor man's loaf. The liberals shouted that England had grown to be the greatest manufacturing nation and the richest nation on earth under free trade, and then, with that delightful In consistency which seems to attend both sides of a tariff fight, they declared that England was already ground Into poverty by the landlords and could not afford to bear another penny of taxation. The liberal speakers could Justify their demand for relief of the poor, and main tain that English laborers were the best paid In the world, all in the same speech, without any apparent effort. The conser vative speakers, equally resourceful, found no difficulty whatever In explaining that a tariff duty on wheat could, no.t possibly Increase the price of bread, since the tax Is paid by the foreigner, and In the same speech denouncing the government for in creasing the cost of the poor man's tobacco by the Imposition of a higher customs duty. The United States and Germany, as the two greatest high protective tariff coun tries, were used freely by both parties to prove every side of every qustlon. The conserva'lves said protection would mean high wagee and plenty of Jobs, in support of which statement they referred to the working men In the United States, always with work to do and always getting fabu lously high wages. JThe liberals retorted with the statement that the cost of living was so high In America that the differ ence In wages was really In favor of the British workmin and denying that the Americans always had Jobs. Some of them went far enough to say that there were is many unemployed tn the United States as in England. To this the con servatives replied (hat the farms of the south and west. In America always needed laborers; thereby bringing down upon their heads the wra hy demands of the lib erals that the land In England be opened to opportunity for tmall farmers. At the close of the campaign the whole Issue seemed to be .centered In the great black bread question. The liberal speakers md pres charged that prototlon would mean black br:ad and hors'f!eh for the working man, as la eaten in protected Germany.- Ignoring th horseflesh, the jw tire conservative csmpaian took up cudgels In defrnse of black bread.. A grocer, "by special appointment to his. majesty, the king," testified that , the king ate black rye bread. The conservative papers all said that what was good enough f3r the king was good enough for the likes of Lloyd-George, and that that ought to settle It But the radicals' kept up the outcry against black- bread and apparently the entire English .public cantered all Its thought on. the relative merits of wheat and rye bread. - A feature of the tariff reform campaign was the opening of "dumping shops" In various cities all over the country. An empty store room would be hired and its windows filled with all sorts of imported manufactured goods, all of which came Into England free of duty. The public was Invited, by placard, to estimate how much British workmen got for making these American shoes or these German cooking utensils, or this French fabrlo, and the like. The argument was clinched by pla cards showing how many Jobs would be given to British workmen at so much wages if all these things were kept out by a protect've tariff. These "dumping shops" made a power ful appeal to the people, and they set the other side wild wl'.h anger and despair. There has been a long campaign of ad vertising In England In favor of British made goods, and it has had a profound effect Everywhere one sees appeals for patronage on the patriotic ground of sup porting home industries and employing home labor. The "dumping shops" took advantage of this sentiment In Llecester the liberals played a sharp trick on the terles. They rented the upper story of the "dumping shop" and covered I', over with placards which explained Ihe exhibits In the window below to be a powerful argument in' favor of free trade. The voter might stand outside, see the foreign goods and then by the two sets of placards reach the conclusion that tariff reform would either 'save or wreck the nation. In London one "dumping shop" displayed a chair marked with a card "Made in U. S. A." It developed that the chair was of (a particular sort made only In a fac tory in the immediate' neighborhood. Work men from the chair .factory Identified the chair and forced ' the t tariff reformers to take it out of the window. ; That particular "dumping- shop" at 6nc 1 '' f ell Into dls epute. ' ' 3 ' ; ,- Almost every Englishman who has been In the. United Sta"tesr,baa written a card to the newspapers, sometime during this campaign, for the purpose of comparing prices in ..the two countries. They were about equally divided in opinion as to which country has the higher prices. One letter writer said that' he had lived in the United States with his family for seven teen years, and that while he always hod his clothes made, in England because he liked the fit his old London ' tailor gave him, yet he had bought a suit of olothes In Atlanta for $9.76 which waa perfectly good. He did not give the Atlanta tailor's name and address. Of course each side has accused the other of all shades and degrees of dema (ogy, perhaps not without reason. The liberals used hundreds' of thousands ef a leaflet which ' read, after giving statistics from various countries: "Protection means less wages for a longer day's work." And the conservatives counted as a trump card their leaflet which bore the legend: "Dearer baccy, dearer bread, dearer liv ing, dearer dead, dearer whisky, beer and gin. Is what you get when the Rads are in. "Vote for tariff reform. The for eigner pays the tax." Tariff campaigns appear to be conducted on the some general 11r.es in all countries. t nxDZKio . XABxnr.

President Says Ambassadors Arc Underpaid Makes Country Appear like Plutoc racy to Have Only Rich Men in Diplomatic Service. WASHINGTON, Jon. 17. A mbassodars from the United States to foreign countries should be better paid, according to Presi dent Taft, who. In an after dinner address last night to tha National Board of Trade, declared that it was a shame that with all the wealth of the United States nobody but a millionaire could today afford to accept a post as its ambassador. The president also spoke In favor of the purchase by the government of homes abroad for our representatives to foreign countries. He asserted that while the coun try was In name a democracy, It made It appear like a plutocracy for It to send abioad oS,!y men of great wealth, because men of marked ability but limited means could not afford to accept the positions. He humorously declared that the president was the "only properly paid official of the government" Other speakers at the banquet were Senor De La Banra, ambassador from Mexico, who spoke of the wonderful development of this country and of his own country as well, and of the friendship existing be tween them. ; y The board today warmly endorsed Presi dent Taft's approval of legislation for the upbuilding of an American merchant ma rine and also th president's recommenda tion for postal savings banks.

It Is hardly likely that Mr. Morris will serve us regularly with an "all star" bill, suoh as this, but If he will only approach It, his advent to the city will be welcomed, Harry Lauder was naturally the main Incident of last night's entertainment, but by no means was he all of It. Four other acts were presented, each enjoyable In Its way and each getting hearty applause. First of these was Cyrano, the Juggler. He works fast and clean, and In handling balla shows himself very expert. M ile. Bertha Is a violinist of excellent accom plishments, and well deserved the encore to which she responded.

He simply presents some Scotch types In a humorous way, but it is a kindly, whole some humor, with no element of alowning In It, and no taste of bitterness. Beginning with his song of MaNab's wedding, and ending with "I Love a Lassie," he spends the greater part of an hour on tha stage, cleverly maintaining his pose and achiev ing results as an entertainer no other has as yet attained. And when he said good bye, It was with a promise that he'd come again, and that "we'll meet again, some Ither nlcht, for auld lang yne." The audience last night was large, more numerous than any of the Omaha theaters could well aocommodate, and It was warm enough to bestow most liberal applause on eaoh of the performers, and especially on Mr. Lauder. y RIFENBERG HAS LONG RECORD Man Aceased ef Murder nt Alnevrorth line Duped Several Women.
