TO say that protection is exploded" and
that "free trade is sure to come" is an
idea of imparting econom-

such warning. Both Golden and
Bright promised England thirty years
ago that within ten years free trade
would be the policy of all enlightened
nations. If asked why this promise has
not been kept, their answer was: "There
are no other enlightened nations but

ed prophesies in circulation slight adj

will take them at par.-Inter Ocean.
