The Am arican Hen to be
"PrOtected,"

The sheep has pcrversely refused
to respond to the nurturing hand
of Protection. His fleece has been
heavily "protected' for the past
century, but the obdurate animal
has refused to keep pace with in
creased population and increased
demand for his wool. Forty years
ago there was sheep apiece in
the country for every one. Now
we are short 20,OOO,oOO sheep of
enough to go around.
There is evidence that the inca
pacity of the sheep to demonstrate
the efficacy of Protection is turn
ing the minds of Protectionists
against him in another direction.
The Committee Oh Ways and
Means have their eyes on the hen.
1t is u well-knOwn fact that this
unpretending creature adds every
year more to the wealth of the
country than do all the sheep in it,.
She has done this thing in ud-
complaining competition with
foreign hens. Instead of bleating
lament over the injustice done her
she has gone about her task with
cackling complacency. This is no
longer to go unrecognized. There
is to be tariff imposed upon eggs.
The hen is to be cherished as she
well deserves, and her eggs are to
be added to the list of things made
dearer and more precious by Pro-
lection. Republics are not ungrate-
ful.-PhiPa Record.
