What He Needs.

Here is bright and shining exam
PIE of the protection afforded consum-
ers by competition. Without the Dos
cheers and Arbuckles there would be no
cheap sugar. With them the fangs of
the sugar trust are drawn, and instead
Of monopoly it is only large cor
poration in competition with smaller
ones, which have the power to regu-
late prices.
What Mr.. Havemeyer seems to need
is not so much modification of the
tariff as a law prohibiting any one but
the Havemeyer combination manufac-
turing or selling sugar. From his ex-
hibitions of monumental gall and self
ishness, it is a wonder he has not urged
such action by congress.-Tacoma
(Wash.) Ledger.
The Globe-republican., 1899-11-02

ruptcy was rife and great numbers Of
workingmen were deprived of employ
ment and with their families reduced
to want.
Third.-That as soon as Mckinley
and Republican congress were elect
ed and protective tariff was assured
business at once revived and the coun-
try entered on a career of prosperity
that makes it the envy of the rest OF
the world.
Cause and effect are so closely linked
in this matter it is impossible to escape
the conclusion that protection and
free-trade are responsible for the re-
suits described. They were the only
factors in the problem, and it will be
idle to seek to make it appear that the
trouble was due to the standard, or ap-
prehension concerning the currency.
The attempt will be made, however,
but there is every reason to hope that
the American people will not be led
astray, but will intelligentiy conclude
that the policy that brought prosperity
before 1892 and restored it in 1897 Is
good for the country and should be
permanently maintained.-San Fran
cisco Chronicle.

WOULD BE SMASHED.


American Industries and the Americas
Standard OF Wages aud Living.
Senator Hansbrough Of North Da-
kota hits the nail on the head when he
says: Congress might revoke every
article and section of the tariff law
carrying a protective duty, and It
would not make the slightest differ
ence with the so-called trusts" The
proof of the truth of this statement
is found in the fact that free-trade
England also has formidable monopo-
listic combinations.-Min Trib-
une.
Convincing as this fact may be. 1t
is not the only proof of the soundness
Of Senator Hansbrough's conviction re-
garding the relation of trusts and the
tariff. Trusts in Great Britain do not
fear external competition so long as
they are able to control domestic COM
petition. To control domestic compe-
tition is much easier in a free-trade
country than in a country where pro-
lection acts as perpetual stimulus to
internal competition. II the truth were
known there are trusts in the United
States to-day that would welcome the
repeal of all protective duties as the
surest safeguard against the greatest
menace to their successful operation
the menace of new competitors. They
are not disturbed at the prospect of in
furious foreign competition under free
trade. Competition of that kind could
be easily met by reducing the cost Of
production-that is. by reducing
wages. Protection being abolished and
wages having been reduced. 1t would
be plain sailing for the trusts. No;
the repeal of protective duties would
not smash the trusts The things GER
tain to be smashed in such a contin-
gency would be the American standard
of wages and the American standard Of
living.

Tn. Dodge WIN Not Work.

Protection is a Republican policy.
The Democrats have formed the habit
of denouncing it, and they think they
must keep it up, with or without rea-
son and sense. And so. with the splen-
did record Of protection staring them
in the face, and being unable to point
to single fact that is not to its credit,
they wildly re-echo Havemeyer's flip
pant utterance with some such scheme
as this in their heads: 1.-The people like
the protective tariff: let US try to
make them hate 1t by circulating the
absurd lie that it is the mother OF
trusts"
The hypocrisy Of all this is quite as
comical as it is revolving. It shows
what a poverty-stricken old concern
the Democratic party is. Free silver is
dead. Flag hauling as an issue is worse
than no issue at all. Fantastic yarns
about trusts and the tariff are the only
remaining resort. The Democracy
grabs at this grotesque banner and
flourishes it frantically. hoping to rat
tie voters and muddle their thinking
apparatus. But the dodge will not
work. 1t is confession Of weakness
and a proclamation of stupidity. The
people see through the game and will
coldly keep out of it, preferr;ng to re-
tain their prosperity, their open work
shops, their 10O-cent dollars, their ster-
ling Americanism, and their respect for
the flag Of their country.-Freeport
Qll.) Journal.

A Divided Responsibility.

Protection enriched the few at the
expense of the many, and the trusts
that grew out of protection are doing
the same thing-only little more so.
Toledo Bee.
The Bee is mistaken; that is NOT so.
The political history Of the country
shows that protection to home industry
was always great help to American
labor-the bone and sinew of the coun-
try.
As for trusts. the fact is, the Repub-
lican party is no more responsible for
them than is the so-called Democratic
party. In that respect all parties are in

RETURN OF CONFIDENCE.

It Came About Solely Through the Res
torati0n of the Policy OF Protection.
Some people are foolish enough to
believe that the present happy condi-
ton of affairs is attributable to the
restoration Of financial confidence, but
it requires no special acumen to dis
cover that this confidence rested on
the belief that protection would set
the wheels of industry in motion. If
the fact were otherwise it would long
since have disappeared, for it must not
be forgotten that there has been no
monetary legislation since the election
of President Mckinley and that our
monetary system remains practically
in the same state that it was when
Cleveland falsely held it responsible
for the disasters which the carrying
out of his un-American free-trade pol
icy brought on the country. It is true
there is a largely increased stock OF
gold in the United States, but no legis-
lation touching the standard or man
about that result Protection did it by
largely increasing the favorable trade
balance. By diminishing our imports
and increasing our exports we hive ac-
complished what no legal req .se:.n
Of the standard could have skoS;A-
plished. By sticking to protection We
have kept on. o., or at least lessened.
our Indebtedness to foreigners, and
thus VIC have made it impossible for
them to force US to yield up any more
Of our gold than We find it profitable
or convenient to part with.
Protection Is entitled to credit for
this result, but its enemies. under the
guise of monetary reformers, are seek
ing to obscure the fact. They will not
succeed, however, because the Ameri-
can people are acute enough to discern
these facts, which stand out plainly:
First-That in 1892. when protec-
lion was in full blast. ''the business of
tAe country was In a provokingly
nenlthy condition"
Second.-That during the years

Those who refuse to confess tho
truth take pleasure in pointing out the
fact that there has been an advance in
the prices of some common articles OF

of Is per cent, but they fail In most
cases to also state that wages have ad-
vanced fully Is per cent at the same

Utility Of Trusts.

It is a fine thing for Democrats that
we have trusts. for without them there
would be nothing for Democrats to de-
nounce. Yes, trusts are good things to

The tariff is not now an issue, but
nobody can tell what the Democrats
will do before the next election. There
are at present strong indications Of an
attempt to force the tariff to the front
by taking up the trust issue on the lines
laid down by Bryan, and if that is done
the testimony Of Mr.. Grace as to the
beneficial effects Of protection will be
interesting.-Clevelan (Ohio) Leader.

different races OF people; divided into

against the authority of the United
