There are in the coming campaign. which the

| between this country and other nations The
| second is the currency by which that interest
and that intercourse are carried on. These
questions involve questions OF the higher moral
! ity OF proper action, personal party, national
| and International.
The first principle upon which Republicanism
| is based and the disregard OF which would ent all

protection OF American industry and American

| Discussing this question. Senator Davis re-
| ferred to the protection accorded the working

| hordes OF pauper and criminal immigration
| from the old world, and asked why the same
| branch OF industry requiring it. He compared
! the condition of the iaboring class in this coun

England, where there were two men looking for
| one position instead OF an employer looking for
| men. There were those who could remember
| when in this country under the influence OF a
| cratic party. an era OF Tree trade was intro
duced and continued for few year when re-
turn was made to protec ion to redress the dis
asters experienced under free trade

system or corrupt industrial system that you

| trader proposes to lay his country open to every
attack because the foreign merchant will sell
| goods cheap to whoever happens to have money
| to pay for them. He forgets in doing this that
| he takes numberless sources OF employment
| from his neighbor, from the man who does not
| produce the crude raw material. In the last
analysis OF this question protection is in self
| defence of every man in the community. 1t is
all the difference between civilization and bar
barism. Wherever compensation is hight use
the term in tbs large sense-the state of civiliza-
| ton OF that nation is high Wherever the rate
of compensation or wages--using this term in
the large sense-is low the lower it COWS and the
| nearer approach to barbarism that nation
makes.
