A COMMUNICATIONS from South
Bend friend will be found elsewhere,
headed ''As to Protection" While the
theory therein advanced is good on the
face of it, we doubt if the plan would
prove practicable. If the farmers
could enlist the government or the state
to go into the manufacturing of farm
machinery, there is no reason why
Uncle Sam and the state of Kansas,
and other states also, should not extend
a helping hand to other industries as
well as that of agriculture. Let ~. S."
provide funds for the aid of farmers in
Kansas and the cotton raisers of the
south, the fruit growers of California,
the coal miners, printers, fishermen
all men of all industries would want
aid from the government, and could
demand it with as much right as the
agriculturist. Paternalism in govern
ment will never succeed unless the
paternal hand is extended to all alike.
The crime of the present tariff law IS
that it aids few manufacturers at the
expense of the many consumers. AS
to how the making of trusts and COM
bines like the one referred to in our
South Bend letter can be prevented,
we certainly believe there is way to
break up such business through legisla-
ton, and if we mistake not we are rap
idly approaching the time when such
legislation can and will be accom-
plished. That the republican party is
unwilling to act in that direction we
have ample proof, and the very fact
that that party's power is now rapidly
waning is good evidence that paternal-
ism in government is not popular.
THE very latest information from
Topeka is to the effect that all things
are moving along smoothly, though not
much in the way of legislation is being
accomplished, and probably will not be
until after the senatorial contest which
comes off next Tuesday. If the ALI.
| ance mer get together as amicably and
satisfactorily on the senatorial election
as they did ON the matter Of state

need of any further shenanigan on tn,
