Is not the inference well nigh irresistible
that high tariffs make low wages and low
tariffs high wages? If wages are higher
i'm the United States than anywhere else.
in spite of our high tariff IS 1t not clear
that the cause lies somewhere I'm our
boundless natural resources, which are
not yet monopolzed by a landed aris-
tocracy. such as curses the old countries?
These natural resources will remain when
the Wilson bill becomes a law, and our
higher wages will remain with them
1t is not correct TO say. as some Demo-
Gratis do. that high tariffs have nothing
10 do with wages. They have. They re-
duce the purchasing powers Of wages, and
so in reality reduce the wages. Ii is n
fact. though the protectionists never al
lude TO 1t. that the highest American
wages are paid in the unprotected indus
tries. and the lowest I'm those that have the
highest protection. The coal barons, who
are so eager to retain the duty Of 10
cents n ton on coal have testified within
three months that they pay no higher
wages than are paid to the Nova Scotia
mini 3. and that they only pay trine
over one half of the amount OF the pro-
tective duty per ton to the men who dig
their coal. The same thing is true OF the
other protected monOpoles; they use their
protection to put prices up TO every con-
sumer who buys their products, which en-
hanced prices are of course paid by the
great body Of working people. who are
the majority of consumers. and they in
no case pay any higher wages than the
state of the labor market. regulated by
supply and demand cOmpes them TO pay.
And. as We have said. they pay less wages,
as a rule, than are paid TO workers in the
unprotected industries
CAREFUL ESTIMATE.
The National Bureau OF Statistics a few
years since made a careful estimate OF the
number Of workmen employed in the pro-
tccted and unprotected occupations, and
reported that the number of the protected
wage-earners. was about 9O5.0o0, while the
number of workers who have no protec-
tion were about l6.jOO,0O0. II is not true
that protected wages are higher, but even
II ii were true. on what fair or just prin-
ciple can the government make 100000
of its workingmen pay higher prices for
everything they eat and wear and use In
order that less than l.OOoGO0 shall profit at
the expense OF the overwhelming majority
OF their comrades in toll? Protection is
what the Democratic platform OF 1892 de-
clared II to be-a fraud. Pass the Wilson
bill and stop the robbery OF the many for
the profit of the few.

BE CONSISTENT, GENTLEMEN.

When your employees who went out on
the strike come 10 you, MIR. Manager,
asking for reinstatement, we ask you to
consider some things they will hardly
remind you of, but which you should
take account of if you care to preserve
your own consistency. We understand
thatyou refuse to take back the men
who were the leaders in the organza-
ton, and that you impose on the others
whom you reinstate the condition that
they renounce their union.
Are you not applying to others. your
woIkingmen, medicine that you re-
fuse for yourselves? Are you not for
bidding them action that you take? Are
you in position to cast the first stone?
Where did these men of yours learn
their lesson in organizing for mutual
protection and benefit? Did they orig
mate it? Were you yourselves not
their teachers? Have you not been
making your "gentlemen's agree
ments," your traffic rates. your differ
entails, your pools. for many years and
before your employees began to form
their pools and make their agreements
of gentlemen?
Have you not had your rate wars
caused by some one of you breaking the
compact you had entered into with the
others to maintain the rates you thought
''the traffic would bear?" Have you not.

HON. THOMAS CAVITY.

Judge of the Supreme Court of Minnesota
1t ought 10 be sufficiently demonstrate
ed by this time that United States sem
ators should be elected by the people.
With all the howl for reform in the last
twenty years. it seems strange that no
political party of any importance has in
its national convention pledged itself
to bring about this reform.
Times have changed since our con-
stitutiop was framed. Its trainers
had no vast corporate interests to deal
that of slavery. The slave power as
rdle fought its battles openly anu avow-
edly. Except in rare instances, it did
not select for office supposed abolition
lists under an agreement that they
should continue to cha mpion the cause
of abolition until after election, and then
proceed to serve the slave power. In
those days politicians were usually
what they seemed to be. Under the
simple conditions which existed before
the war the United States senate was
not rich mans club, and very few of
its members bought their seats with
their own money or the money of any
such power or special interest. What
ever interest was to be served. brains
and not Doodle got the seat.
But now Doodle and treachery TOO often
carry the day. The master of duplicity,
the caucus packer, the wire-puller, the
manipulation of the deadlock, succeeds
more often than he fails; and the mere
guerrilla, not the statesman, becomes
United States senator. The state can
not be kept free from political rings. or
good government maintained, when the
political majority is so large and reliable
that the party in power canno: be called
to account for It's misdeeds. Small and
uncertain majorities bring out the strong
men i'll both parties and relegate the
wirepullrrs. But the majority in leg
lslature elected under these conditions
is usually small. aud it offers the bes;
opportunity for engineering the dead
lock in Dalloting for United States SEN
atOr; and, after weeks and months of
weary strife. some creature of the DOW
ers that keep la the dark is sprung as a
dark horse anl elected as compromise

the offenders ended. got together again
and cudgeled your brains to devises sumo
plan of joint action that would be more
iavulnPrable?
Was it not your single purpose in this
to prevent the public from getting your
services at competitive rates?
Have not all the states and the nation
been obliged to enact stringent laws to
prevent your pluckihg the public goose
of all its feathers, and have you rem
dered that obedience to these laws
which good citizens should? The inter-
state commerce law. as we'll as the laws
OF states. absolutely prohibit you from
granting free passes on your roads
to any but your employees; have you
obeyed this law?
Before you preach observance of law
to your men, had you not better give
them the lesson of your own example?
You have now your passenger asso-
citation, with its president and staff of
clerks. organized solely to secure your.
selves from the competition of each
other This body is occupied in hear
ing complaints and imposing fines on
those of your companies who disregard
the compact aud sell transportation at
less than your joint rates.
Can any of you make rate without
the consent of the association? No con-
vention can bring large numbers of men
together to whom you can make
special rate until your association has
permitted it. and then it must be uni
form.
Have you never engaged in boycott
of some offending road, refusing to give
continuous haul over your lines to its
freightage and passengers? Are you
not even now endeav0ring to secure
from congress valuation of your custom
of pooling?
Do you think your men are so dull as
not to have learned the value of these
combinations you have been making?
DO you think them so ignorant that
they would not conclude that what you
did for your benefit they might and
should do for their own? If they used
the same means to gain their ends thai
you have used to gain yours, are you in
position to rebuke them?
Yes, we admit that the strikers ignored
their duty to the public and gave it
grievous hurt. and that they were indif-
ferent to 1t, but have you always been
so considerable of the same public and its
welfare?
Do you organize to secure for it adj
yantages at your cost? When the strike
had ended and you got together in Chi
cago,and, seeing how advantageous had
been your united action, agreed to form
close association of the trans Missis-
sippi roads, did you have the welfare of
the public at heart?
In view of all this. do you think you
are in position where the public,
which, after all, is master, will approve
of you if you treat your men as you are
said to?

HON. JOHN P. REA.

[EX-Commander OF the G. A. RI
l believe the constitution should be
amended to make United States sena-
tors elective by popular vote of the peo-
pie Of the several states.
In the early days state legislatures
were composed of men chosen by their
fellow citizens on account OF their rec
Ognized wisdom and fitness as lawmak-
ers. The trainers of the constitution
lodged with them the power to elect
United States senators because of the
confidence inspired by the high char
aeter they then maintained. 1t was in
tended as mere incident connected
with their more important duties OF leg
iSlatiOn.
Now, in one-halt the states. some of
them containing more people than the
entire Union at the adoption of the con-
stitution, legislatures are elected in
contests waged solely upon the issue as
to who shall be chosen by them as
United States senators. The important
matters of state legislation are over
Swallowed and lost sight of in the heated
conflicts carried on by rival aspilants
for senatorial honors. The latter fur
nish the sinews of war. and in many
cases choose the lawmakers for the
people. The incident has grown in
self = asserting Importance which it
seems able 10 maintain-until the great
ana important function of the state
legislatures-that of making laws for
vast communitles-has become in the
choice of members of no weight or in
fiuence whatever.
This is but one reason, but surely an
all-important one, why the constitution
should be amended as above stated.

ALWAYS IN TIE lead

The GLOBE this morning, with char
acteristic enterprise. presents to its
readers number of editorial communi-
cations Oh an important subject. For
some time past the idea has been
spreading towards an agitation for the
election of United States senators by
popular vote. For the purpose of
sounding the public pulse, the GLOBE
has addressed Eumber of letters TO
prominent citizens, who have favored
us with a reply. From the standing
and prominence of these gentlemen,
their utterances will 10 doubt be read
with attention and receive considerable
weight.
Other important subjects will receive
proper attention. in these columns in
due time. In this connection the pub
fishers desire to say that no efforts will
be spared to make the GLOBE the lead.
Ing paper of the entire Northwest The
best of talent will be employed in its
various departments, and tone of
young and progressive ideas infused
into its columns.
The GLOBE will, above all things,
publish the news in readable manner
1t will stand up for straightforward
Dem .cracy-Democracy as expressed by
the people and laid down by the immor.
tai jefferson.
In local affairs the GLOBE will ever be
found in the lead for all matters of prog
reSs. We want to see again the smoke
from hundred furnaces roll upwards
10 the skies. We would like again to
hear the clang of the busy hammer and
see the throngs of happy wOrkmen as
they form their brigade to and from
work. We wish to see our people happy
and content and able to build up this
splendid city till it outstrlps all COM
pettors. All we ask of the public is to
fall in line and aid in this good work.
In due season the excellent news
service from all Northwestern points
which was once the pride of the GLOBE
and the pleasure of its readers will be
rebuilt on its former scale. and wher-
ever Democrat may live on the broad
eXpanse of the prairies he will be able
to read in these columns the news from
his nearby places as we'll as from every
corner Of the civilized world. And good
Republicans may find in the GLOBE
what til y will not be able to discover
in many other so-called papers.
Today's GLOBE is model newspaper
III every respect and we feel degree
of pride in offering it to our thousands
of rnndnrc
