ment act because it was passed Nov. 2
ana not sent to him officially until the
9th. One day wasn't enough time to
think about matter which had been
before the city council for months.
What was the mayor doing when the
matter was before the council? What
is a mayor for?
These childish excuses do not cover
up the fact that Mayor Potter let slip a
chance to allow the city to perfect
splendid plan for improvement until il
is too late and the whole expense will
have to be had over again.
Mayor Potter is anxious for "instruc-
tions." When the Council had consid-
cred and passed the act perhaps they
should have attached bill of particu
lars.
If the Mayor has done any business in
his Office which his secretary might not
just as well have done the public would
like to know what it was. According
to his ideas, as one might gather them.
the secretary is the only man necessary
in that department.
The people want Mayor who thinks
and acts.

WILL rHE PARTY PROFIT BY Irg

IL requires considerable courage and
cool consideration of ali the phases of
the situation to enable Republicans to
extract much comfort ont OF the situa-
ton just now. But there is solid COM
fort in il.
it Is evident that there will be no
special session of congress, and it is not
probable that the present congress will
radically revise the tariff, if it goes so
iar as to pass one or two of the bills for
freeing certain articles of raw material
from duty. Ii is practically safe to rely
upon at least two years more of the Nc
kinley tariff, for if il soould be super-
ceded in the early part of the fiftythird
'congress the new law could not be
passed and made operative under several
months time, probably not under year
at least.
we may expect that there will be
TWO years more of the Mckinley object

to be felt by the country. If the Re-
pnblicans make good use of these wears
public sentiment can be formulated so
strong that it will be exceedingly diff
cult for the Fifty-third congress. with
ITS increased Republican minority. to
pass free-trade measure, or materially
cripple the efficiency of the protective
feature of the tariff law.
The election certainly revealed ele-
ments of weakness in the Republican
party which must be removed. and
called attention to factors of strength
among the Democrats which might well
be introduced into Republican tactics.
IL is for the Republicans to throw all
scruples to the winds and take the les
sons of the election very closely to
heart.
The next few months will reveal

the occasion, accepts and profits by all |

PROTECTIONIsT YET.

Is the actual sentiment of tbe
majority of that portion of the Ameri-
can people who have framed the laws
during the last thirty years, and who
built up the prosperous industries and
made this the richest country on earth
now against protection? Let us see !.
There are 10000, 900 voters. Cut this in
two and 1t stands, Republicans 8, 500. 900.
Democrats 100000. Add Cleveland's
majority to the Democratic $500. 900
and we have, say, 100000. Deduct
that majority from the Republican
6,500,0 900 and it leaves 5000, 900 Repub-
lican voters to be accounted for after
the battle.
Were these 6,000,00 Republicans ALI
wiped off the face of the earth by the
election or do they still exist and be-
lieve IN their principles as before?
Now let an analysis of Protection sen.
-timent -be made
The Republican party has ALWAYS
been made up of the brain of the conn.
try, represented by churches, schools.
merchants, bankers, manufacturers
American workingmen, etc.
Next take the Democratic party: II
is made up in part Of brain, but in large
measure of the ignorant elements of
the population. When Southerner de.
posits $50 votes representing the Negros
who are at work on his plantat ion. each
vote counts for as much as that of n
Vanderbilt or senator, but under the
circumstances it represents no "senti-
ment about protection or anything
else.
Next count the steerage element.

the slums of Europe, and absorbed into
the Democratic party. These ignorant
alien voters represent nothing more in
the shape of sentiment" on protection.

bers count.
Next take the good element of the
Democratic party, large portion of
which assures us that it is in favor of |
protection. And that element 10 the
100000 Republicans who have de.
clared for protection in this election.
and II is easy TO see that the brain of
th. codntry--or that element which
does the real work Of the country and is
cTTUOf0 or making things, instead of |
breaking things-is, notwithstanding
this vote. overwhelmingly in favor OF
protection just rs it stands.
; Thus we are confronted by the fact
that the majority Of thought and mental
power, together with the industries and

splendid prosperity created thereby, are
at the mercy OF the minority of the in
tellectual forces of this country. through
its alliance with the ignorant European
classes who left their homes TO secure
advantages and advancement in the
America that was created by Americans
under American economic principles.
This minority of the mental forces of
the United States, while comprising the
traditional and sworn enemies of North
ern industries, includes limited ele-
ment, which, to all intents and purposes
as regards the country, is like the Tory
element in the revolution. British i'm
thought and sentiment, and when edu-
Gated in the colleges, is fed and satu-
rated with secondhand British thought
ON political economy, an element which
ignores the fact and the deductions to
be drawn therefrom, that In one short
century America has risen from n will
derness TO become the richest country
ON the face of the earth, and the largest
IN population by 30 to 100 per cent of
any civilized nation-not through Brit
ish, but American thought.
Ii the promises of the Democratic
platform are to be kept itwill be hard
experience for those to go through who
remember the dreary years of half and
three-quarter time in our shops and
g.
factories prior to the war. Aut the un-
thinking masses who followed the
leadership of cloister-taught theorists
and copyists of English political econo-
my, will be reached by no lesson except
one through the stomach. Hunger will
beat argument, and brains may after
wards win.

WAGES VOLUNTARILY RAISED

Rhode Island has every reason to be
proud of her present industrial supre-
macy. She has reason to be proud of
the skill OF her mechanics and the sue
cess of her capitalists, but an event
made public yesterday will give every
citizen cause for qualification that so
important portion of our largest mills
are under the management of men who
believe that their business success is
best conserved by freely sharing with
their operatives the fruits of their labor.
We refer to the voluntary advance in
wages made by b. B. & r. Knight and
the Lonsdale Company.
There is little need to discuss the
economic phase of this fact now to
point out that close community of in.
terests between employer and employee.
Such discussion involves calculation
and is simple question of dollars. This
act is one which has overstepped- the
usually observed commercial principles
and stands out boldly in the light of
justice and humanity. 1t is in no
sense political move, for the cam
paign is over, and had these. two
firms followed the lead of others |
they would have ceased all thought |
of any present change and waited until
the future policy of the incoming party
was fully made known. But they had
the courage of their convlctions-con-
victions born of years of experience and
business prosperity which has made one
of the largest cotton manufacturing
concerns in the country. If diminished
trade comes, meet it when it has to be
met, but while good trade lasts thew
evidently believe in sharing its benefits
with those whose skill has contributed
to their success.
The advance will be all the more an
preciated because it is voluntary. 1t
will make many thousands more con.
tented, and it will add largely to the
already enormous savings bank deposits
Of Rhode Islands working men. 1t is
IN act worthy of emulation by all and
we extend to the citizens of the State
'ur earnest congratulations that these
eaders of our business men now con.
luct their business on broad PRINCIPLES
If justice and humanity rather than on
hat more widely observed principal of
eltish self interest.

in all the mills there. Aside from the
liberal treatment of operatives which
this step involves, it shows what Rhode

The Republican party passed the tariff
act OF 1888 and was defeated in 1884
The Democratic party tried to pass the
Mills bill in 1883 and was defeated in
the same year. The Republicans passed
the Mckinley bill in 1902. Altogether
tariff bills do not seem to be strong
foundations upon which to build perpet.
uation in power.
