The subject of the essays, Whom
Does Protection protectT indicates
plainly enough the line of argument
followed, while the conclusions reach
ed are clearly foreshadowed in the
more detailed form of the interroga-
required to predicate their theses
namely.
If all foreign products should be
admitted into this country free of
duty, what proportion of persons en-
gagged in all our various occupations
would suffer direct injury?
The intent of the New England Free
Trade League is obvious. 1t is that of
demonstrating that Protection is II
mistake and Il crime. that ii benefits
the few at the expense of the many,
and that unrestricted foreign compe-
tition i'll the most valuable of all mar
kets would conduce to the welfare and
prosperity of the greatest number. To
establish this conviction in the minds
of the American people is the desire of
Free Traders hero and elsewhere.

AMERICAN SILK RIBBONS.

The silk ribbon manufacturers of the
United States have scored an iiupor-
tant point in the recent decision of the
Board of General Appraisers by which
ribbons are classified as trimmings
and made dutable ut 80 per cent. ad
NalOrem. Heretofore silk ribbons have
been paying 40 per cent. duty as
provided for and the addition of 10
per cent. if sustained by the courts.
will cut so deeply into the profits of
he foreign manufacturer as To give
our domestic ribbon makers the vir-
tunl control of the big home market
through the exclusion of foreign inn
portations.
For the nine months ending March
81. 1899. we imported silk ribbons of
Ill" value of 81 .313.32S. The bulk of
this sum will now be kept mt home
and paid out TO American labor. which
is II good thing To do. AS to quality
and price. the genius of American in
dustry may be trusted TO attend to the
former. while competition will take
care of the latter. Such has invaria-
bly, been the outcome of the American
Protective policy.

HOW FACT BEATS THEORY.

The United States exports to foreign
countries more merchandise than it i'm.
ports. and the balance of trade thus
created is paid in gold to this country
Durin" the three months of January
February and March of 1899 the ex-
ports from this country ex.
ceeded the imports by $122 ,623. .313
And that was under the Dingley bill
and Republican Protection Tariff laws
although the Democrats declare that
Protection to American industries
closes the markets of the world to
Americans. That is the Democratic
theory of Protection: but the Republi-
can fact is that under Protection we
are sending steel railway rails by hun
dreds of thousands of tons 10 Europe,
and hundreds OF railway locomotives
are being sent 10 all parts of the
world, and gold coming To this country
to pay things exported. When it
comes to business Republican fact
beats Democratic theory.-Freeport.

alrge majority Mr. Field has gener-

is followed by a lot of A No 1 per-
formers along various lines of amuse-
ment
The finale is good, too-no flour-in-
the-face farce, but some good clever
entertainment that pleased Immensely.
The audience was a fine one, every
seat in the house being taken and more
wanted
After the performance of the min
trels the entire company of forty mem
bers at the invitation of the local
lodge of Elks, adjourned to Power
Hall and mad a grand good time in a
social session, such as Tie Elks only
know how to give. Our boys treated

one enjoyed himself to the utmost
Mr.. Field is an Elk from away back
one of the most enthusiastic mem
bers in the country, and it was in his
honor the reception was given.
