a Pleasing Guest.

For the first few months after the
election of President Mckinley in 1896
on the protection and prosperity plat
form we heard frequent inquiries on
the part Of the enemy to why pros
perity was tagging SO long behind its
advance agent. Faeeuous suggestions
were made in respect to the adv1s-
ability of inserting in the newspapers
a lost strayed or stolen notice for
General Prosperity Those sclntiilat-
ing free-trade witticisms no longer
shine forth to dazzle a long suffering
public. 1t has been many day since
any free-trader cared to assert that
prosperity had not come in with pro-
lection. Now, instead of making face
tious inquiries as to the whereabouts
OF General Prosperity, the free
traders devote themselves to claiming
that the formerly much praised Gen
eraI Prosperity is an unattractive
gentleman of protruding stomach, who
appeals to mems appetites instead OF
to their hearts and brains The great
majority of the people OF the country,
however, have found him to be a very
pleasing guest and are more than will
ing to entertain him for an indefinite
period. Four years more are already
arranged for, and at the end of that
time the invitation will without
doubt. be renewed.

President Robertson, of the British
Chamber of Commerce, said, in a re-
cent speech, that the reason for the
decline which had come in British
trade with the United States, France
and Germany was to be found in the
protective policy which was in force
in each of those three countries; and
he prophesied that the time would
surely come when Great Britain would
be Obliged to follow the example set
by the countries referred to and enact
a protective tariff law. British free
trade sentiment is evidently accom-
panying British trade in its decline
No nation is willing to play a losing
game forever, and Cobdenism has been
a losing game for Great Britain for
many day. That it was not a losing
game from the beginning was due sole
ly to the fact that Great Britain had,
under her former policy OF protection,
made herself greatly superior in in
dustriaI resources to all other coun-
tries. That, in spite of the great in
dustrial advantage which England pos
sessed when she adopted Cobden'S
