France learns the universal lesson
cotton seed oil that will protect her OIL
i've growers against the competition of
the cheaper article that comes from the
United States to take it's place. This
is to be expected, but it is no argu-
ment against the policy of protection.
That policy is to be judged upon its
general results and not upon the out
come in any particular case. Amer
lean production is more largely con-
sumed at home than that of any other
country, and as a consequence she will
gain more by protecting her produc-

Canada is making a tariff to suit
herself. She will put Great Britain in
the list of favored nations and the
United States in the other scale. This
is right, and this country is not kick
ing. Canada has nothing but her I'M
blushing cheek that this country real
ly needs. She has no product of her
soil outside of some lumber the United
states wants, and Canada has need of
the markets of this country in which
to sell her products, which are of the
same kind as those in the United Sta
ties. Yet Canada has the cheek to come
whining around the doors of congress
demanding that our tariff discriminate
in her favor. She has cheek to burn.
Every act of her legislation and every
utterance of her government is hos
tile to the interests of this country,
and upon that hostility Canada bases

The silence of Weyler has only been
broken to give denial to the reports
that are so circumstantially given in
his bureau kilograms as to the Spanish
successes. The latter returns tell the
story that what has nationally conclu-
ded as to those successes is proved to
be true. Under the new light that is
thrown on the page of those move
ments they are reversed as to the re-
suits and a substantial gain for the in
surgents is shown. Weyler is going
steadily down hill. Had it been him
self and not his son who sailed for
Spain it might be worse for Cuba.
