Olney Bank were cognizant of Montgom-
ery's character, and William Hayden
bought some of the lumber in Montgomery's
name. 1t was shipped North in cars and

Alarmed at their own boldness
and the disastrous consequences that
threaten 10 result, the so. called tariff
reformers are sounding hasty re.
treat all along the line. Instead of
inveighing against the "robber
tariff as they formerly did with so
much JUNCTION, they are now busily
explaining and insisting that the
Presidents message and the Mills
bill do not mean free trade. And
yet they haven't quite the hardi.
hood to claim, IN so many words,
that either means protection. But
they must mean either the one or
the other, if they mean anything at
all. What is opposed to protection
leads to free trade-is free trade in

bill may not be absolutely free
trade measure, but it sustains the
same relation to free trade that the
