WHY AND WHEREFORE.

Hon. Geo. F. Hoar tells the American
Economist why he is q protectionist.
He says:
81 am protectioniss, because think
by that policy the workmen OF America
will he we'll paid and not undergrad.
Because think by that policy the
variety OF industry will be created here
which will make America strong In
peace and war.
Because the industries 90 fostered
will develop the skill and brain power
of my countrymen, and raise the people
of the United States to the first rank In
intelligence among the nations of the
earth.
because that policy has already
made US the richest and strongest

much that is most valuable In the

The leading spirit in labor organiza-
tons and associations have always been
disposed TO side with the Democracy,
as against the Republican party. The
latter party having been generally in
power, when the demands of labor were
first heard, it was held responsible for
si the ills complained Of. without being
given al opportunity TO show its dis
position to correct evils. The Demo-
cratic party being the opposition party
at the time. it was naturally looked TO
as the source of remedy Of all the evils
known to labor. This disposition has
still renamed, although Republican
Legislatures have enacted many meas
sures of relief. The Republican party,
however, has always declined to be
radical in its labor legislation and has
always looked carefully at both sides of
q proposed innovation, before adopting
It. The Democracy, on the other hand.
anxious to be put in power, has made
extravagant promises. THIS has kept
alive the inclination of labor leaders
toward that party. In Michigan now
the Democracy has an opportunity to
fulfill its promises. How well 1t does
so, is shown by the manner in which it
has treated the Park and Fildew bills to
regulate the hours Of labor on surface
street railways.

This weeks work of the Legislature
closed last night and the aggregation of
lawmakers left early this morning for
one days show in Detroit. Apparent
ly the end Is no nearer than il was q
week ago. No important measure, ex-
cept the Dickinson county addition to
Don Ms pavement of his way to the
United States Senate, has been dis
posed of. That. however, was pushed
through by a strictly party vote and
not upon its merits. The measure was
q Democratic necessity and 90 the
Dickinson machine supplied tho inn

the Secretary of States Office. The
disposition of that measure, then, can
not be accounted unto The Legislature

desire to transact the peoples business
promptly. Although the G.. A. r. ap-
preparation bill has been sent 10 the
Governor, yet his probable return of
