Why Am a Protectionist.

am Protectionist because l am an American The free admission of for eigu commodities, or their admission at rates of duty which are levied for purely revenue purposes, may suit the economic conditions and meet the financial needs of other countries, but history teaches that the prosperity of our own country is best promoted by tariff which is levied for Protection as we'll as for revenue Many of our great industries,
 including the silk industry the pottery industry, the carpet industry and the steel rail industry, had only nominal existence until adequately protective duties were imposed on competing for ei-n products. All other considerations aside, older manufacturing countries could command lower wages for labor than this country, and protective duties Were therefore needed to equalize the labor cost of production Our tin plate industry is today an infant industry be- cause we have not had a protective duty on foreign tin plates We shall always need protective duties as long as our people insist upon a higher standard of wages and scale of living than prevail abroad. If they were now willing to accept the same wages and the same social conditions which the people of

ORIGIN OF "REFoRMo PHRAseo.oc
The Slave Power Used the Same Terms
 Long Ago,


 Long Ago.
 There is not new term in current reform" phraseology They were all coined by the Free-trad slave holding ohgarchy many years ago. The slave owners were opposed to the establish. mcut of manufactories in this country whose free labor they looked upon as a menace to their pet institution. Cotton was all they had to sell, and they sold that abroad. They were interested only to obtain their plantation tools and i'm plements and supplies for their slaves and their own households as cheaply as possible. When congress placed duty on those things to encourage their man. ufacture in this country, to create a home market for those who raised other products than cotton and to give in- creased employment for free labor, the champions of slavery denounced the tariff as "legalzed robbery, ''iniquitcus taxation," Legislative jugglery," and other select phrases employed by the modern "reformer.
 Dishonest, vicious" infamous, pIundering" and other adjectives equal ly expressive were continually in the mouth of the enemies of our earlier tariffs Dire predictions. which would compare in gloominess with any of those made by the "reformers before the Me- Kruley bill became law, Were made of every tariff that preceded it. So the Mckinley tariff does not alone enjoy the honor of having demonstrated the utter falSity of the charges made by the foes of Protection. Above all things the mod ern ''reformer" cannot lay claim to orig nality of expression

 Whatever it may have been in the past, this policy is therefore today chiefly a question of wages, ,-James NJ. Swank, General Manager of the American Iron and Steel Association.

the BANK Statem0nC SHOWS
NEW YORK, January 3.-The bank statement
was to many people a surprise. as it was known
that there had been movement of currency
out of the banks. both to the interior and
through the sub-treasury, and therefore, the
moderate increase in the surplus reserve was
not looked for. Money should. however.
from this time return to this city and
the money market grow easier. The market
to-day responded to those conditions and
displayed even greater strength than yesterday.
investment buying continuing to be the princi-
pal feature. Houses which do a strictly in
! vestment business say that they find great
difficulty In supplying the demand for good
bonds and dividend paying stocks. Such
scarcity of securities upon the street has not
been known in l5 years, and in consequence
every attempt to buy for either side of the
account advances prices.
The news from the railroad world TO-DAY was
not of special importance, but the Union
Pacific and Rock Island difficulty caused con-
siderable comment. The general opinion is,
effect upon the stocks Of those roads, it can
have little or no influence on other properties.
In the market this morning, the bears were
o
the aid of some foreign selling, to open most of
the list at slight declines from last
evenings figures Louisville and Nashville
were some of "a per cent. The buying, how
ever. was too much for the pressure Brought to
bear, and the natural strength of the market
ample being Lackawanna, which was run up to
1344 a gain of lss per cent. The loss in Louis
Vile was also recovered, while some of the
specialties scored material advances, and al
most everything traded in made fractional
gains
Rock Island was the only weak point in the
list, and, giving no evidence of support it be-
came the prey of the bears. who sold 1t
down ".
There was some reaction in the last hour on
realizations by the traders but the issue of the
bank statement was the signal for the renewal
of the upward movement, and the best prices
were again reached, and in a few cases higher
figures were attained The close was fairly ac-
tive and strong at the highest points. The only
material advances among the active shares
were Lackawanna and Colorado Coal, per
per cent each.
The bond market continued to show the eff
feet of the new demand, and in the two hours
of business there were Sl,0l5.000 traded in,
which was evenly distributed over large num-
Der OF issues. The gains were in many cases
large. Northwestern debentures rose to 108

STRUCK BY A HORSE CAR.
Mrs. o'shea Fatally Injured While on He,
Way to Church.

Mrs. OShea Fatally Injured While on Her
Way to Church.
Mrs. Bessie O'Shea, of Cork's Run. met
with a probably fatal accident yesterday
morning. Mrs. O'Shea, with Mr.. and Mrs.
Cohn, was walking along the river road from
Cork's Run to church in the West End
about o'clock yesterday morning. When
near the city line they took the street be-
tween the street car tracks where the walking
was better. They had gone just short dis
tance when the horses attached to car No. 6
came rushing along and stXck Mrs. O'Shea
and knocked her down. The front wheel
passed over her body, three of her ribs were
broken, her body and thigh badly cut, and
she was severely bruised about the head and
hurt internally. She was picked up and
placed on the car and brought to the Office of
DR.. Graham, where he dressed her injuries
and had her sent to her home at CarIin's
Row, near Cork's Run, in a carriage. DIR.
Graham said her recovery was very doubt
ful.
At the time the accident occurred the
driver, Charles Miller. had been back on
the rear platform Of the car putting off sew
eral boys who were stealing a ride, and the
horses were travelling along without driver.
The police are investigating the affair, but
have not arrested the driver

Although there was no business in oil Satur-

mind over the advance noted the previous day,
which was fully maintained.
The best bid was 725s, but it failed to bring

Its rejection indicates strong confidence in the

The events of the week were few but such as
