McKiuleyism in Germany

To THE EDITOR OF THE World: That the
landlords of Germany should be staunch
protectionists and in favor of excluding
American farm products from their coun-
try is not surprising to any one who has
read Henry Georges book, "Protectien Or
Free Trade" In that work Mr.. George
proves most concusively that in the long
run it is the owners of land, such as coal,
iron CT timber lands, who get practically
the whole benefits of protective tariff.
That the owners of these lands are also
manufacturers does not alter the fact that
it is in their capacity as landlords that
they receive extra profits through the
higher prices which are caused by protec-
ton.
Strangely enough, the American belev-
ers In McKinleyism do not seem enthus-
astic over the prospect that their trade
hating theories may be adopted by Ger
many. They declare that protection is
the best policy for ali countries, yet when
their pet principle is applied to American
meats or grain they loudly protest.
Why this Inconsistency? If high tariffs
on farm products imported into this coun-
try are for the public good, why not for
Germany as we'll? Perhaps the farmers
who find their foreign markets Diminishing
because of protective laws will begin to
understand ihat policy of universal trade
restriction cuts more than one yay. FREE

CRAZE FOR TATTOOING

"Do you meet tattooed men in your prac-
tice often?" a physician was asked.
"Frequently," he replied. "Only the
other day man who Yves remarkably de-
corated came to me to be treated. His
right arm was encircled by a serpent in
red, the head on his wrist and the tail on
his shoulder; on the left arm was croco-
die, also in red, and surmounted by
patches of diamond shape and in three
colors. On his breast were three figures
executing dance. The work itself was
we'll done, and the colors bright. He said
it was done on the coast of Africa, and
attended by great ceremonies. and he had
become great man in the tribe. But such
elaborate tattooing one seldom meets, and
then only on sailors. Small designs are
common"
Med" Thomas, who claims to be the old
est tattooer in the city, said: ~ learned on
board a man of war and began business in
this city at 80 Oak street in l S47 and have
been at it ever since. I find plenty of peo-
pie who want to be tattooed. Not great

perhaps an anchor. An EnRlishman a

want pigs head or chicken, and baker
sometimes -four barrel or loaf of bread.
