DR.. PEACHES WARNING
HE SAYS GERMANS MAY WELL FEAR
THE AMERICAN PERIL"
Speech by a Member CT the Reichstag,
Who Studied Industrial Con-
ditions I'm This Country.

BERLIN, Dec. 4-During the course Of
the tariff debate in the Reichstag to-day
DR.. Paache OF Halle University. sounded
the strongest warning concerning the
American peril which has yet been ut
tered. DR.. Paache visited the United States
in 1899 TO study the social and industrial
conditions there. Since his return he has
been lecturing on the changed balance OF
the worlds trade wrought by the dominat-
ing growth Of the United States. During
his address the speaker laid before the
house masses OF figures which set forth
the expansion of American manufactures
and OF American foreign commerce OF re-
cent years and the enormous accumulation
of wealth of the United States. He accom-
panied his statistics with a philosophical
analysis supporting the idea that Ger
many's most dangerous and most immedi-
ate trade enemy was the United States.
DR.. Paache said: Peculiarly grave dam
gers threaten US from America; against
these we must put ourselves in a state OF
defense" DR.. Paache was particularly i'm
pressed by the rapid growth Of the cotton
goods trade in the United States. which he
said now dominated the market Of the
world.
reBdIuliB the paragraph III tAN0'N'e
Roosevelts message concerning reciprocity
DR.. Paache said: America makes feint
of adopting a policy of more liberal COM
mercial treaties, but she is determined 10
abandon nothing OF her protective system.
What would il profit US If we got sIlght
reduction OF duties which are now aDso-
lutely prohibitive? in spite or this our
treaties say we do not dare 10 raise our
duties. The Yankee has not a trace OF
such sentimental politics The Grafton

people in Germany demand tariff war on
the United States, especially the iron men,
who complain Of the United States's high

a tariff war under all circumstances, still
let us not play with the idea that such
avoidance would be unpatriotic-"

The President concluded his vigorous dis
cussion Of anarchism as follows:
Anarchy is a crime against the whole
human race; and all mankind should band
against the Anarchist. His crime should
be made an offense against the law of ma
tions, like piracy and that form of man
stealing known as the slave trade; for it is
of far blacker infamy than either. 1t should
lied powers. Such treaties would give to
the federal government the power of deal
ing with the crime.
Readers of the Journal may recall a COM
munication from Hon. A. c.. Harris pub
lished shortly after President McKinley's
DEATH in which, by a very clear course of
reasoning. he reached practically the same
conclusions. He discussed the analogies
between anarchism, piracy and the slave
trade, and concluded that they were all
alike crimes which, under international
law, could be reached by the action of all
civilized nations. LAS near as may be-"
wrote Mr.. Harris, anarchy should be
treated as piracy. By common accord and
cooperative action that crime and man
stealing have been exterminated' and he
held that anarchism should be treated the
same way. The Presidents search for an
effective remedy seems to have led him to
the same conclusion.

arid lands he said: THE water-storing ca
pacity of the surface has been decreased
or destroyed, thus promoting floods in times
of rain and diminishing the flow Of streams
between rains" The object of the pro-
posed Improvement of the Ohio is TO con-
serve the reduced supply of water ''be-
tween rains" in such a way as to insure a
boating stage at all times. This plan has
been adopted in some smaller streams and
also in the upper Ohio, and it's feasibility
has been demonstrated beyond a doubt.
The success of the movable dam system
as applied in the river above Cincinnati is
argument enough for it's application below
that city to a portion of the river that is
of great Importance to the States of Ohio,
Indiana and Kentucky. Owing to the
broken and hilly character of southern In
diana and consequent difficulty of building
railroads that section of the State has not
developed as rapidly as some others, and is
now deprived portion of every year of
what was once a reliable waterway at all
times. The restoration OF the river to
something like it's former reliableness as
a waterway the year round would be of
immense benefit to a large section of coun-
try which is at least as deserving as any
other of national aid in the way of public
improvements. The river and harbor bill
to be introduced during the present ses-
sion of Congress will not contain an item
of more real merit than this one. 1t should
have the cordial support of all the senators
and representatives from every State bor-
dering on the Ohio river.

PREPARING FOR WAR.


NEW YORK, Dec. Am official an
nouncement has been made that Chile has
purchased from the Lairds In England, two
torpedo boat destroyers, for which they
paid s70,OO0, not including artillery, says
the Buenos Ayres, Argentina, correspond
ent OF the Herald.
The purchase of these vessels is consid-
cred here as being a violation Of the agree
ment OF both republics not to increase their
navies. Argentina, as a result of Chile's
action, has decided to purchase battleship
Of II, 900 tons, and has instructed one Of the
ministers in Europe TO enter into negotia-
tions for the purchase of the vessel. 1t is
believed the ship will be ready for service
next May IT is believed the Chilean admin
istration will propose an -acuation OF the
disputed territory by the forces OF both re-
publics until the decision Of the boundary
question is announced by the British gov
eminent, to which 1t has been referred for
arbitration.
