"The tariff question la one of businesa and not of mathematics," said Mr. Kinory, "the problem of bow far an Industry needs protection to keep It In sound sxlstence, or what the effect of its decay would be, cannot be settled by any ttgebralo formula. None the leas auch material, when digested by impartial men f common sense who know the conditions it competition In each Industry, and checked by the knewledge of those who have followed an Industry for a Ufa time will furnish a body of knowledge on which tariffs can be made which will have the full confidence of fall minded men." Mr. Emory Spoke of the great difficul ties Involved, especially in getting ac curate cost flgurea, In view of the fact that In many line the manufacturer has not himself been able to figure out his own costs accurately, and also in view tt the faot that figures of relative coat ware not in themselves an adequate basis for tariff Judgments. He frankly ad mitted that in the case of some articles it would be either Impossible or unneces sary to attempt auch calculations. , Powers of Tariff Board. Discussing the existing powers of the tariff board to ascur information, Mr. Emory stated it to be the opinion of the board that tor an Investigation of thia :haraoter, ooercive powers to call for X BLUE JACKETS IN GUILD HALL Seven Hundred and Fifty Americani Guest of Lord Mayor. TUE.KEY AND BEEF ON THE MENU Commander Mms TMef Boats wain's Mste Rnmn Reply Hearty AMre of Welcome. LONDON. Pec. Sir Thomaa Vesey Strong, the lord mavor. and the corpora tion of the city of Ixindnn, today gave a luncheon at Guild hall to 750 American rallora from the visiting fleet at Oraves rnd and Weymouth. The bluejackets ar rived by train at Charing Cross, headed by Commander Sims of the Minnesota and the officers of his staff, and accompanied by the band of the Cold Stream guards, which the war office had ordered out for the occasion, marched through the streets In the west end of the city to the ancient hall, where so many famous guests have been honored. A hit crov. d assembled out?!d the a'a tlon and, lining the streets on which traffic had been stopied, gave the Americana, who carried the stars and ttrlpea and their chip's colors, a rcuHlng welcome. , r.lvlng at Gu 11 Hall, the vl Itors fo.med In a quadrangle while the band played the "Star Spangled Banner." Sir Thomas 'received Commander Bims and his officers In the reception hall and brf yre luncheon was served, passed around the dining hall greeting the guests. The blue Jackets ere seated at long tablea in the main hall. At the head table was the lord mayor, with Commander Slma at his right and j with aldermen and uniformed officers unn in, m me gallery the lord may ores entertained Mrs Reld, wife of Amer ican Ambassador Reld. and the wives of the visiting officers. The menu was sim ple but plentiful. Including turXey and great barona of beef carried In with pom pous ceremony, plum pudding and mince pie. The dining was followed first by for mal toasts to King George and Tre.-rtent Taft. Sir Thomas then welcomed the sail ors. He said It had been a privilege to re ceive the officers of the Amertcnn fleets yesterday and that the corporation of the city of London was equally proud to re ceive in the same hall today the men ot the American navy, adding: "I offer the heartiest welcome of Eng land, where no one la more popular than the men behind the gun. The American Jackt-tar is regarded with a large share of that affection which Is felt for our own men." Commander Sims Replies. Replying, Commander Sims spoke with enthusiasm of the friendly manner In which the American fleet had been re ceived In Iondon. This, he said, could not happen In any other country, but waa made possible by the strong ties of blood between the two countries. Speaking for himself he believed that If the time ever came when the British em pire was menaced by an external enemy they might count upon every man, every drop, of blood, every ship and every dollar In their kinaVed across the sea. Chief Boatswain's Mate 8. E. I Benson of the battleship Minnesota replied on behalf of the men. expressing thanks for the enter tainment In a neat speech which tiok the Englishmen by surprise and which was frequently Interrupted by guests with spontaneous cheers for the lord mayor and the city of London. books and examine witnesses under oath were by no means essential. "Testimony given under coercion," he said. "Is too likely to become unwilling and half-hearted. In most cases more complete and Illuminating Information can be secured by different methods. The of ficials of European governments who have accomplished most in these lines have no such powers iind do not ask for them. I'p to dnte, however, the board has no reason to doubt that they can secure the neces sary Information by present methods. After all. If the principle Is once firmly estab lished that protection, however necessary. Is a favor and that the burden of proof Is on the manufacturer to show cause why It Is granted, the question of powers be comes relatively unimportant." On the question as to what use would be mado of such findings, Mr. Emery said, that, whether the board should report to the president or to congress, the Influ ence of Its Investigation Into facts would come from the influence of unbiased and unauppressed truth to make Itself effec tive. Public fchoald Know Truth. "Those who are skeptical of this result." he said, "forget that where certain in terests are concerned to suppress the truth,' other Interests whether from busi ness or political motive will be equally eager to give it the fullest publlolty. The trouble in the past haa been that tho facts have not been available. Once It ia known that they can be secured, they are bound to have their effect on public opinion and so on 'public policy. This, however, is ab solutely dependent on the continuance of such impartial studies year In and year out." Chalrmar. Emery concluded by sum marizing the various different attitude toward tariff revision, and protested against the stand taken by those who de nouaoo congress for revising the tariff In five months and yet demand that a tariff board should be ready to report on ' re vision In the same length of time. ."It ia both Inconsistent and unfair," he said, "to demand at on and the same time that the tariff shall be revised on the baais of an Impartial and scientific Investigation of the facta, and yet be re vised with Impulsive haste aa a political exigency. The two demands are Irrecon cilable and you must choose between them. So far as we are concerned. It doe not matter which of . these various attitudes either you or the people prefer. . The pres ident has given u our task to find out the facts, and w shall not depart from our resolve to refuse to substitute for such facts half-formed guesses or opinions under orders or pressure from any man, any Interest, or any popular clamor."

This need not mean intrinsic gain, but it does indicate a distinct solidity on the part of the giver. For example, a furniture craftsman has taken a section of a mahogany log and split it into two halves and then exquisitely carved it into a book block. What in a gift, at whatever cost, shows better taste, better sense even better breed ing, than this simple little bit of wood, genuine in every fibre? And it carries the Miller, Stewart & Beaton Tag-Policy. The same idea spirit,. if you please pervades this stock this store; the simple, solid, genuine, thought the almost horror at imitation. A brasff-andle mount candlestick is simpler may be near to four feet tall i a dainty, breath from our colonial period, and such a thing as might stand near the head of the bed 6n nights when imagination helps one through the pages of a book.
