1t is refreshing to hear other than
republican papers coming out strongly
in favor of those peculiar policies that
have constituted the wisdom and
strength of the republican position for
a goodly number of years. Among
these policies is that of a strongly and
generally restricted immigration. All
that has been done as yet in this direc-
ton is as drop in the bucket compar-
ed to what is demanded in the inter-
ests of the labor and the industries Of
this nation. Exclusion Of the orientals.
Restriction of the most rigid character
for the Europeans. Along these lines
alone wild the salvation of the work.

There is no sentiment in business.
All business is based on the exchanges
that we are able to make with others,
in which exchanges each tries to make
good profits for himself This is just
what the tariff laws of this country
are doing, enabling the United States
to make profits for herself. The other
countries are on the same lay, and
when they can make more by not doing
business with us, than in doing 1t,
then they will do less and less. and
finally none. 1t is all nonsense to talk
of sentiment in a tariff bill. 1t is a
business bee with sting. This
country can do more business with
herself than any other country can do
with itself. Because this country is
spread over so much ground and is yet
fresh in it's industries. So long as
this is so it is not of any use to talk
to American statesmen about letting
down the bars. This advantage is one
of our national betterments and it
would be suicidal not to use it to our
increase.

Uncle Sam had an unusual experience
during the Laurier visit to Washing
ton. He was the host, to whom came
the Canadian commissioners and Off
GERS of the government on a political
errand, and while in the American
capital they were snu'bbed by the am
bassador and suite, who represent the
mother country, of which Canada is
the most important possession. That
discourtesy has left a bitter taste in
Laurier's mouth, and he will spit it out
at Great Britain yet.
The Buffalo Express is published way
down on the Canadian border, and its
opinion as to the benefits or otherwise
of reciprocity with Canada is of value,
as of an expert observer on the ground.
1t is worthy of notice that the Express
is hostile to all the propositions that
Canada has made looking to reciproc-
ity, simply because they are all disad-
vantageous to this country.

AMERICAN INCREASE.

The old world is full of complain
ings that trade is deceasing in those
old centers, and that the increase is
| being made in the United States at
! their expense More than all others
| Germany and Great Britain wall out
| these cOmplainings. This is to be re-
| GREETED because there is no release
| from such conditions save at the ex-
pense of the United States. The con-
ditions that comfort Germany and
Great Britain are natural, and there is
no law by which they can be obviated.
A world of double the consuming ca
pacity of this present could be readily
supplied from the supply sources Of
the commercial and industrial and
agricultural world. The power and
facilities for creating and furnishing
for the worlds supply outruns the
power of the peoples Of the world to
absorb. Those nations that can absorb
most of their own products and will so
frame their laws of exchange as to
shut out the others, are destined to in
crease while others decrease. This
is the condition of the United States
as compared with Europe, and there
is no remedy. Europe must furnish
less. Her creative industries must be
curtailed. America is not going to
purchase of Europe in the future as in
the past. America will supply for her
self what she has been taking out of
foreign storehouses and mills and fac
tories. Her factories will increase.
Her measure of increase will be her in
crease in population. She has years of
increase before her if she shuts out the
ruinous competition of the older coun-
tries. 1t is only matter of business.
There is no sentiment about it, Self
preservation demands it. This country
has been the purchasing agent of the
world. We have been buying on the
right hand and on the left and taking
care of the surplus population and the
paupers of the old world for a third of
a century. We are not doing that bus
mess any longer. 1t is this that hurts.
1t will hurt more and more as the Am
erican policy is extended. 1t will be
extended as it's benefits become more
apparent. Out of it all the promise is
to us and not to the old world. Every
change must result in our favor. We
will increase, but the old world proper
ties and possessions and industries will
decrease. There must be a curtailing
of the labors over there, a diminution
of the business, a reduction Of the
profits. There must be scaling down
in all things. Uncle Sam will scale up
if he does not permit Europe and Great
Britain to write his industrial laws,
otherwise he will scale down with the |
rest. The United States and Europe |
are in opposite scales of the balance |
If we go up they go down. If we go |
down they go up. 1t is only question |
of American policy and wisdom. |
Which will We choose. The nation |
chose a year ago the going UP policy. |
1t is safe to say that it will be adhered |
to.

When the leading journals of all par
ties unite in the demand for a restric-
ted immigration, that will be practical
ly inhibitive, then will there be hope
and certainty Of its accomplishment.
When restricted immigration is made
a party issue, then the ranks of the
foreign voters, who desire to secure
for their brethren and acquaintance a
home over here, will support the OPP
ponents of such restrictions and it's
success will be perilled. When all par
ties unite upon this policy that danger
will pass, and the real sense Of the ma
tional legislators will be expressed in
the proper enactments to restrict for
eigners from swarming over here.

There is another thing that is the re-
suit of the New American tariff, usual
ly called the Dingley tariff, and not US
ually taken into account when its ben
efits to the masses are under consid-
Grafton, and that is that in making our
goods at home they are not raised in
price to the consumer. There never
was yet any commodity that was
manufactured in the home market
as the result of protective tariff laws,
become cheaper than before the tar
iff was levied. All iron goods, tin
plates, wooden goods, yarns, carpets
etc, are abundant proofs of this state
ment. Protect the American mechan-
ic and his Inventive genius will do the
rest.

As the prices of wheat and corn and
meats advance the buying capacity of
the people increase. With the sale
of our increased productions in mills
and factories money is realized for in

trade is stimulated and so railroad bu-
siness is pushed, with a corresponding
demand for all railroad structural ma
terial Thus the country, self sup

eigner out of the foreign market as she
is to drive the foreigner out of her own
