Senator-elect Foraker was at the Nc.
Kinley residence this afternoon. He
has legal business in Cleveland, at
which he was enga ged yesterday, and
which was not concluded in time for
visit here in the evening, as was an

that there is no political significance

The senator reached Canton over the
Valley road at Les, and Maj Mckinley
was at the depot with the family car

house where lunch awaited, and spent
the afternoon in conversation On the
train with Senator Foraker was

From the company's point of view

This is sstheA only method by

"DOCTRINAIRES /.

1t is highly amusing to find the
mouth-filling word "doctrinaires" still
doing duty whenever the McKinleyite
sits down to show us that what this
country needs is adequate" protec-
ton. This means, in general, that the
managers of protected industries
shall be themselves the judges of what
Is adequate protection for their own
respective businesses. AS to how much
or how little profit the manufacturer
shall be authorized by law to abstract
from the pockets of the consumer.
there is room for argument and give
and take. Your genuine protection
list, whether he wear a Republican or
a Democratic coat, is willing to submit
this to the jury. 1t is to be decided
eventually by a combination of indi-
vidual selfishness, and so we get a
tariff like that Of 1890, in which each
monopoly gets it's slice of pie by offer
ing to it's partners an equally liberal
allowance. But wherever a man dares
to raise his voice against this log
rolling and corrupt combination to in
terfere with the natural course Of
trade for the purpose of private pelf,
he is not for a moment to be tolerated.
He is free trade doctrinaire."
The absurdity of the use Of that word
in any such connection is delightfully."-
apparent. The "doctrinaire" is a per-
son who wishes to arrange practical
matters according to abstract theories

The decree was issued that no coal

| a couple Of thousand tons to supply his
customers with early in September be-

screw on prices. He was content with
the profit he could MAKE on his bur-
chase if he sold it at $5.9S; so, when
the local puppets jumped the price Up
as the barors pulled the string, John
kept right on selling at s5.9S. The pup
pets were not disturbed John WAS
only sma1l-fryI dealer, and his 1000
tons would soon go. and that would be
the last of him. -
Johns coal went fast. Soon his yard
was empty. The local combine breathed
easier. John went to the local super
cargo of the trust and wanted to buy
10000 more tons% But John had broken
the rule; he had cut prices and was
blacklisted. Not, another ton could he
have. Johns Irish went up to the boil

Pennsylvania. He bearded the trust
in it's den. How he did it is not told,
and an interesting portion of the mar

getting all the coal he wanted He
came back and soon vessels began to
arrive filled with hard coal consigned
to John Ryan, dealer in coal, North

are busy carrying the $5.9S coal into
all parts of the city, while the other
regulars" are pouring beer on their
wrath to keep 1t from sizzling, and
holding meetings to devise some
method of corralling the terrible John,
to which neither John nor the agent
of the suspected baron is invited.
John is not at all offended by this
slight, but keeps right on hauling his
coal away from the vessels and max
ing glad the hearts and pockets Of Mil
waukeeans. He is the most popular
man in town. He is worthy of public
honors. We nominate John for mayor
of Milwaukee. We wish we had a
dozen of him here.

SHERMAN SAYS NO.
He Is Not In With Any Deal Con-
tempIated by Hanna.

WASHINGTON, Nov. Ex-senator
Sherman, of Ohio today gave out a
statement making a fiat and emphatic
denial of the reports concerning deal
between himself and Mark Hanna,
as to the Ohio senatorship and a cabi-
net position under Mckinley Mr..
Sherman says that the stories alleging
an arrangement whereby he (Sherman)
should go into the cabinet, aud Mr..
Hanna succeed him in the senate, are
pure fabrications. He says he has not
seen either Mr. Mckinley or Mr.. Hanna
since the election, and that he has not
had any correspondence with them
save of the most ordinary character,
chiefly forwarding applications for
office made through him. There have
been, he continued, no arrangements
or conferences Of any kind as to offices.
AS to whether he would be a candi-
date for reelection TO the senate, Mr..
Sherman said that he had not thought
anything about it, and therefore would
not answer any questions on that SUBJ
ject. He paid a warm tribute to Mr.
Hanna, who he said was a strong
friend Of his, and man Of fine attain
rnents and ability.

the affairs of men. He has a paper

He Is the man who imposes artificial
restrictions and restraints upon nature
In nature trade is free. The exchange
of commodities between man and man
is as old as society. Until it was sug-
gested to individual selfishness that a
personal advantage might be gained by
lessening the area of competition, no
such thing as a protective tariff was
ever heard Of. Protection is the later
product, the dogma, the theory, the
artificial thing, the doctrine out of
which is evolved the doctrinaire.
There never was any propo-
sition in economics or in any
other branch Of science so ut
terly unsupported by fact as that
which lies behind the protective the
DRY. This is the assumption that if
you make the employer a collection
agent empowered by law to gather a
large fund Of money from the tax
payers he will then voluntarily assign
it to his employees and divide it equi-
tably among them. This is rank stuff
and nonsense. 1t never had a shadow
Of probability behind it. 1t has been
proved false in fact. The protected
manufacturer, equally with him who is
not protected, buys his labor, as he
He takes the limit Of profit that the
law, by excluding competition, allows
him. He gives to the laborer only such
wages as the latter EFFORTS from him

strike
Thus, the protectionist is the "doc-
trinaire" in a double sense. He is such
because he holds theory that is I'M
natural and artificial and bears the
mark Of the selfish brains ingenuity
He is such because he bases his de-
mand upon another theory that is con-
trary to human nature, and has never
been verified in single instance in all
the long and evil history Of protective
laws. Never, since the classical fable
Of the wolf who ate up the lamb be-
cause the latter was constantly inter
fering with his comfort and threaten
ing his safety, has there been more
entertaining instance of getting the
right skin on the wrong animal than
the habitual use of this term ''doctri-
naire" by those whose theory of politi-
cal economy and governmental action
is doctrinaire, dogmatic and unsupport-
ed by fact from the first word of it to
the last.

OF course, about fooling away time on
the squatter, instead of burning his
wagon and driving him off right then.
The next morning when the cowboys
stirred out after breakfast they looked
down across the prairie and saw the old
wagon still standing just where 1t was
the night before. There were no indi-
cations, either, of the squatter making
any preparations to go.

1t is not to be expected that the inves-
tigation OF Eckert's suicide will result in
unraveling the mystery which surrounds
it. The person who conveyed to him
the deadly poison has naturally covered
his tracks well, and has probably made
himself secure against any probing
which may be done by the county Off
ciaIs. However, in the minds of most
people, Eckcrt's ally in destroying him
self cannot be considered friend of
either the suicide or the family. Death
on the gallows would have been a hun
dred-fold more honorable to himself and
his descendants than the cowardly act
he committed. The family now has
two murders to its credit, where before
Eckert's death there was but one. But
should the proposed investigation in
criminate any persons, no mercy should
he shown them. Eckert's abettor or
abettors are fully as guilty Of murder as
