It is becoming mora and moro ap parent from day to day that the sen ate is lens submissive than was tht house to the dlreotlons emanating front the Whit) House as to what should go into, or be kept out of, the tariff bill. Assurance Is already given that tho subcommittee to which the agricultural schedule has been referred, will report back cer tain changes designed to equalize the tariff on raw materials and semi finished product, such, for example, Bb cattlo and dressed beef, wheat and flour, and any recommendation of this kind, supported by even a fair minority of the democrats must stand a good chance tp being voted into tho bill when it is up for con sideration bofpro tho entire senate. In other words, tho inviolability of the measure drafted by the house tariff makers, and approved in ad vance by PreaHent Wilson, Js pot tq be conceded in tho sepato, and. when changes comrnonco to bo made in one schedule others oro bound to follow, and there is no telling -where the lino will finally be drawn. It has been tho almost invariable experience In. past tariff legislation that the bill sont out frqm tho bouso 1b returned by tho sonnto bo thor oughly- reconstructed that its spon sors aro not sure of ta identity, and often the law as finally enacted Is widely at vnrlapco with, both house and senate drafts. It would not bo surprising It tho present tariff bill should find that it has to pass through the same stages. of metamorphosis that Its predecessors havo undergone. At any rate, this is what q indicated by the latest at titude of the senate. Hopes and Doubts. Commenting editorially upon tho appointment of a now election com missioner for Omnh(t an,d.

Umnerging Not go Easy. What the late money king ph.Uos- pnher said abqut the difficulties in the way of unscrambling egg seems to, be particularly exemplified In the unsuspected obstacles besotting the unmerglng ot the Uploa, Paci!;ic Bquthern Pacific combination which th,e late Mr. Harriman welded tp- gethor. When that august tribunal, the supreme court of the ynltod. states, delivered itself of a decision declaring the merging unlawful, and ordering that it be rescinded and expunged, and the several compo nent parts again separated so as to cease to be lAwmiracting, it waa taken tor granted that what was decreed waa aa good as done. A little time waa, given, Qf course, to arrange the details, and execute the transfers, and all interested, partta, were to be consulted to make sure the plan adopted was entirely a lafactory. Unfortunately, or rathe? quite naturally, what appeared sat isfactory to one side; did not look so good to the otbe?t and one plan of unmerglng after another has had tq give Mf ay until now the lawyers are looking to see whether they can pick flaws in the newest plan de vised to Pbvl&te all previous objec tions.
