more heavily than ever in their behalf!
Grant. if YOU please, what we consider
the Tribunes wholly untenable posi-
ton, that they have come to this sue
cess by virtue of tariff duties, and it
forms no argument for the continuance
of such imposts after worldwide SUI
premacy has been attained. The fact,
the notable fact, the shameful fact, the
fact that arouses indignation in ev-
cry honest heart, is that, after our in
dustries have, as the Tribune truly as
serts, been developed by different in
1uences, improved to the point where
they need no crutches, can stand up
and do battle and win against any
opponent in the world we should go
to work and pass tariff bill contain
ing the highest duties ever levied in
this country. There is where the shame
of it lies. Of course, when man or
newspaper claims that we can sell
cutlery in Sheffield for less money than
the Sheffield manufacturer himself and
still make profit, but that, if our tar
if were destroyed, the same Sheffield
manufacturer could come to the United
States and undersell our manufacture
ers in their own market, he is beyond
the point where discussion is profitable
or reason reigns.

self complete refutation of the theory
that American industries still need leg

Tribune comes back with a reply TO
this which does not, of course, reply at
all, and does not even refer to the
main point involved
1t aff1rmS that the iron and steel in
dustry in this country has been built
up by virtue of a protective tariff
While we deny this assertion absolute
ly and totally, what we wish to direct
the Tribune's attention to is that it
has nothing whatever to do with the
point that we made. 1t is our firm
belief that the iron and steel industry
of the United States would be at least
as fully developed today as it now is
if the protective tariff had never been
heard of. A country develops it's re-
sources in proportion to it's increase in
population and the intelligence. skill
and inventive ability and enterprise of
its people. We have the natural re-
qualities that assure such progress.
The assumption that the whole world.
including the United States, would have
stood still; that no mines would have
that people would have gone without
railroads and engines and vessels and
remained in the primitive condition of
harbarism but for taxing them into

it would be as absurd for us to dwell
upon this question as it is for the
Tribune to raise it. OF all the sense
less arguments on earth. the worst is
that which consists in telling your adj
versary how things would have hap
pened if they had happened otherwise
than they already have happened.
Neither the Tribune nor the Glob
nor any living human being knows
what would have been all the results if
we had always had free trade instead
of protection, and consequently there is
no use to talk about it.
The solid facts we can deal with No
matter whether because of protection or
in spite of it, our industries have been
developed to the point where they can
compete on equal terms with those of
any other country in the world and
conquer What, then, is the justifca-
ton for continuing to tax the people

The Law of Last Winter on the
Subject.

The Law of Last Winter on the
Subject.
At the last regular meeting of Chas.
d. Parker Camp No. 1. Of the Veterans
Protective association, department of
Minnesota, a resolution was introduced
and adopted deprecating and denounc-
ing in terms not to be misunderstood
the manner in which the national flag
was being desecrated, as medium of
advertising. by many business men
throughout the state The beautiful
emblem of liberty and union, the old
veterans claim, was not designed and
preserved with the blood of hundreds
Of thousands of patriots to be thus
converted and to be used as medium
for the advertising of merchandise.
In order to emphasize the action of
the camp a committee was appointed
consisting of w. s. Eberman, J. r.
Blackwell and N. o. Ainey to wait on
and confer with those who were con-
verting the flag to such purposes. and
who also were running counter to the
laws of the state with reference to
it's dissertation as an advertising med,
ium. The legislature of Minnesota in
its biennial session of 1897 passed an
act that was designed to check the
evil referred to and it is hoped the law
will be enforced to the letter of the
statute. The act in question reads as
follows:
CHAPTER sS2-H. F. NO. 925.
AN ACT to prevent the Dissertation of the
United States flag.
Be it enacted by the Legislature of the State
of Minnesota:
Section /. 1t shall be unlawful for any per-
son to use the national flag of the United
States. or any copy or semblance thereof,
for advertising purposes, and any person who
shall with intent to use said flag for adver
Using purpose, either by printing, painting
or affixing, otherwise attaching to or upon
said flag any advertisement for public dis
play, shall by printing. painting or afix
ing or otherwise attaching the said flag or
any copy or sembiance thereof. to any article
of merchandise with intent to advertise the
same, or shall in any way use the said flag
as or for an advertisement or advertising
medium of any kind shall be guilty of a
misdemeanor, and upon conviction thereof
shall be punished by fine not exceeding one
hundred dollars. or by Imprisonment not ex-
ceeding three 90 months.
Sec. 2 This act shall take effect and be In
force from and after its passage.
