when American industries were in their
infancy, and when they were protected
by the tariff of 20 or Is per cent-and
Mr.. Clay said if an industry could not
exist with that sort Of a tariff
it ought to perish-that dur
ing the war, created by war
necessities, these taxes have gradually
been growing and increasing without
the notice of the people, until now we
are loaded down with tariff of 45 per
cent. In the meantime these infant in
dustries which required protection
in the days of Clay and Webster
have grown to such gigantic proper
tions to be able to compete with any ma
ton on the globe, if you will only give
us free market. The only, JuStlllca-
ton for the present tariff is that Wnat-
ever is is right. 1t has gradually reached
this amount, and our, politicians on
both sides very largely seem afraid
to disturb it. It is amusing to see the
old party hacks and leaders shrink from
the intellectual effort necessary to ascer-
tain what the real principles are that lie
at the bottom OF tariff reform. While
these taxes are imposed n0minally for
the benefit of the manufacturer, yet by
an absurd tax upon raw material he is
handicapped and prevented from that
free competition which is alone neceS-
sary, as | have said, to drive every
other nation out of competition with us.
Now this Tariff Reform league, as l
choose to call it, Anti-ProtectiOn league
of Minnesota, under whose auspices
the eloquent gentleman who will adj
dress you tonight will speak, is a
non-partisan organization, not formed
to lift or depress, but established as the
reform leagues in England were dur
ing the gallant contest. which
Sir Robert Peel made for
reform in that country, so that the state
of Minnesota shall be represented in the
halls of congress by no man who is
in favor of the present system
of protective duties. Clap-trap is
easy and cheap, and it is very common
to charge all tariff reformers with being
free traders. There is no such thing as
free trade, absolute, in any mar
of government; system OF
state government supported by direct
taxation, and system of federal GOV
eminent which is supported by duties
on import. l do not suppose that the
people OF this country would submit
TO DIRECT TAX
for the purpose of supporting a dual
system of government. But duties upon
raw materials, so that existing interests
which may have grown up under these
laws, as it is claimed may not
be preiudiced, those are the principles,
and the substantial principles, which
governed the action of this league in
its formation. and will govern it in the
campaign which is now approach
ing. With the magnificent manu-
factories which have sprung
up all over these lands
in country the wealthiest Oh the globe,
supplied with mineral resources, agrl-
cultural resources, wood and iron in
profusion, sufficient to supply all
the manufactures which the
world might require, it is idle
to talk about requiring three times the
protection which was required forty
years ago when these industries were
in their infancy. Fellow citizens, l
have the honor to introduce to you
Hon. Frank III. Hurd, of Toledo, o.,
who will address you.

ITHACA, N. Y, March 1O.-A horse

Colgrove became frightened to-day at
the approach of one of the cars Of the
Electric railroad ON State street and
threw the commissioner on the pave

bruising him seriously around the head,
The commissioner is unconscious and
his recovery is doubtful. The horse
then dashed through the front door of
a small house On Meadow street. leav-

A family named Wright, who
lived in the house, were at
breakfast. The horse cleared the table
in good shape, turned over the cook
stove and plunged through the chamber
door upon the sick bed Of a woman very
ill with scarlet fever. Crawling be-
tween the pranclng legs of the now
thoroughly frenzied animal, the woman
managed to reach the street in her night
dress unframed. She was removed to
neighbours. The interior of the house
invaded by the horse looks as if it had
been visited by cyclone.

A Proposition to Purchase the
Pembina Branch Of the Cana
dian Pacific.
Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG, Man., March 10.-Dis-
patches from Ottawa the past few days
indicate that proposition to purchase
the Pembina branch of the Canadian
Pacific railroad will be laid before the
Manitoba ministers, and in converse
ton with leading citizens this morning
it was found that majority do not seem
disposed to abandon the Red River Val
ley road. The purchase of the Pembina
branch would not accomplish the end
sought to be gained by the construction
Of the Provincial line. Many people
maintain that the purchase Of the branch
line from the Canadian Pacific road,
and the abandonment of the Red River
Valley road will be relinquishing the
principle to build local lines to the
boundary, and that it would not be as
convenient for tapping Southwestern
Manitoba. The construction Of the Red
River Valley will give complete control
to the local government, who then can
give such running powers to either
railroads as they may think necessary.
In taking over the Pembina branch the
Dominion government might place such
restrictions as may interfere with the
freedom Of the provincial powers, and
this is what the great complaint is
about.

A MINNESOTA LEADER.
Gen. Gordon f. Cole Makes the
ODening Speech.

Gordon L. Cole, the veteran Repub-
ican tariff reformer, and president of
the Anti-ProtectiYe association, pre-
sided. Before introducing MI. Hurd,
he spoke as follows:
The American people are confronted
at present by an issue with which they
are lily prepared to deal. Forty years
ago, when Webster, Clay, Calhoun and
Benton were discussing economic queS-
lions involving tariff, every one,
from the youngest to the oldest
must know something of these
principles and issues which the
various political parties presented, be-
fiery issues which involved the country
for so many years. Then came the leg
islation attendant upon closing up the
matters which had been unsettled by the
war, and the tariff question was entirely
lost sight Of, and don't suppose that
one in a hundred of onr people
would know tariff to-day if they
saw one. We have been engaged in the
settlement of police questions since the
War-such questions as how we shall
prevent our neighbor from playing base
ball on Sunday; OF how much whisky a
man shall be permitted to drink; or
whether we can prevent our
neighbor from playing better
game of poker than gentleman ought
to. Both political parties have been
engaged in voting for Tom, Dick and
Harry for governor or member of con-
gress. No principle, no issue. no cues
ton of vital Importance. except the strug-
gle for Office, has agitated the voters
or the conventions of either political
party-but the time has now come
when see the issue looming up in the
horizon. 1t is presented very awkwardly

but it is a question i'm which the people
of the Northwest are very deeply inter-
ested in. The presence of this large
audience here tonight indicates the
feeling which exists everywhere. Our

ton on every quarter section aud

BOSTON THUNDERsTRUCK.
Hard for Bostonians to Credit the
Story Of the Fight.

BOSTON, March 10.-The Boston sport
ing men were thunderstruck to-day
when they heard the news of the great
battle on the other side of the water.
1t was considered beyond belief that
Sullivan faced the Englishman for more
than two hours and not knocked him
out. 1t was patheric in the extreme to
hear expressions of sympathy for the
American champion. He was expected
to win, and the fact that he
did not was received in the same
manner as news of his defeat would
have been. It was the unanimous
opinion of Sulliyan's warmest friends
in Boston that the result of this battle
would discourage the champion. 1t
cOnvinces them that the champions
fighting days are practically ended.
For over ten years he has stood before
the public, as they say, the greatest of
all fighters, and this little set
back, occaSioned by an unfortunate
chain of circumstances, will have
worse effect upon him than a similar
failure would have upon any other
fighter living. 1t will have the same
effect upon him that Knockout In one
round would have on any other man. A
prominent sporting man said tonight:
