How Fact Beats Theory.

The United States exports to foreign
countries more merchandise than it i'm
ports. and the balance of trade thus Gre
ated is paid in gold to this country.
During the three months Of January,
February and March Of this year, 1899,
the exports from this country exceeded
the imports by $122, 623,313. And that
was under the Dingley bill and Repub-
lican protective tariff laws, although
the Democrats declare that protection
to American industries closes the mar
kets of the world to Americans. That
is the Democratic theory Of protection;
but the Republican fact is that under
protection we are sending steel railway
rails by hundreds of thousands Of tons
to Europe, and hundreds Of railway
locomotives are being sent to all parts
Of the world, and gold coming to this
country to pay for things exported.

to be the largest plant of its kind in

Henderson's Clear Field.


The action of the Republican Repre-
sentat1ves Of New York in falling into
line with the majority of the other Re
publican Congressman in support of
Gen. Henderson removes the last YES
tige of doubt of the nomination of the
Iowan. Sherman of New York was
the earliest Of all the Speakership as
pirants to put himself into the field. 1t
was thought by his friends at the out
set that he would have a long lead in
the Speakership caucus. The fact,
however, that he had rival from his
own State in Payne, which was not
suspected until Sherman had been in
the field several days, weakened his
supporters, and destroyed all his
chances to get many votes, even in his
own section, if he should have remain
ed in the field. His withdrawal, which
has now taken place, makes clear
field for Henderson. He will probably
get a unanimous vote. An honor of
this sort, at first election, comes sell
dom In the United States. Reed, Crisp,
Carlisle, Randall and all the rest Of the
Speakers for many years past had, at
their first election, opposition in the
caucus Of their party. The distinction
of a unanimous nomination which
Gen. Henderson is likely to receive is
rare enough to be notable in American

Call 1t by the Right Name.

The Tribune has not the least objec.
ton in the world to the protection of
our Southern cotton growers by a
dnty on imported cotton, but we would
prefer to have them call things by their
right names. Why not be honest and
own up that it is protective tariff
they want? The South, during the past
few years, has made notable progress
in the direction Of protection. The cot
ton mills and other manufacturing in
dustries developed in that section have
led the people to look upon the tariff
question in a different light, and it is
only a false pride Of opinion that causes
them to adhere to the old free trade
phraseology in their political plat
forms. -Minneapoli Tribune.

Ohio Renubltcan. All sight

The action Of the Ohio Republican
convention in nominating Mr.. George
X. Nash, of Columbus, for Governor
before the second ballot had been COM
pleted, will give much satisfaction to
Republicans throughout the country.
First of all, Mr.. Nash was the candi-
date Of the administration leaders in
the State, and for this reason his nOmi
nation is an endorsement Of the Presi-
dent. On the other hand. the only for
midable opposition to the naming Of
Mr. Nash was that organized by fac
tional leaders who, though not particu-
larly aggressive in the recent cam
paign and certainly not in the conven-
ton, had hitherto been guilty Of party
disloyalty. While much preparatory
work had been done, care was taken
in the convention not to widen the
breach that had hitherto existed be-
tween the administration and the anti
administration leaders. All the lead
ers counseled harmony, and to this
general display of sense was doubtless
due the early nomination of Mr.. Nash.
