The Taria ana Reciprocity.

slrable, TO COMBINE with the stability OF our eco
nomic system supplementary system Of recipro-
cal benefit and obligation with other nations
Such reciprocity is incident and result OF the
firm establishment and preservation OF our pres
ent economic policy. 1t was specially provided

| Reciprocity must be treated as the handmaiden
| OF protection Our first duty is to see that the
| protection granted by the tariff in every case
where it is needed is maintained and that reci-
procity be sought for far it can safely be
done without injury to our home industries.
Subject TO this proviso of the proper protection
necessary to our industrial well being at home,
| the principle Of reciprocity must command our
hearty support. The phenomenal growth Of our
export trade emphasizes the urgency of the need
dealing with foreign nations
The condition OF the American merchant ma
rine is such to call for immediate remedial ac-
tion by congress
At present American shipping is under certain
great disadvantages when put in competition with
the shipping OF foreign countries. Many OF the

building American ships is greater than is the
case abroad, that the wages paid American off,
GERS and seamen are very much higher than
those paid the officers and seamen of foreien

living our ships is far superior to the stand

rivals, Our government should take ssach action

The passage Of the act establishing gold as tn,

I'm many respects the national banking law
furnishes sufficient liberty for the proper exercise
Of the banking function, but there seems to be
need Of better safeguards against the deranging
influence Of commercial crises and financial pan
les. Moreover the currency OF the country
should be made responsive to the demands OF our

Economy in expenditures is urged. Amend

to breathless galleries. He often pro-

ment was to lay tax of between 500

it is because of large hunting parties,

At this point of Herr Bebefs speech

scornfully interrupted Herr Bebel. On
this occurrence the Socialist members
OF the Reichstag rushed in a body to-
ward the Conservative side of the
chamber shouting. Order Interrupt

president of the Reichstag frequently
rang his bell or called Herr Bebel and
other members of all political groups

tempestuous of the house. exclaimed:
This bill foments insurrection. The
chancellor aims to oVerturn social or

Baron Won Rheinhaben, the Prussian
minister of finance advised Herr Bebel
that if the Social Democrats stirred up
rebellion the government assured them
they would reap a harvest of broken
heads. This was greeted with cheers
on the right and laughter on the left.
Herr Moeller. the minister of COM
merce, said he regarded the new tar

of the government to force a conclu-
sion of favorable commercial treaties.
The Reichstag then adjourned.

AFTER TEXAS PRESS COMBINE.
Snit Filed by Attorney General
Against shippers Compress Com


Dallas, Tex, Dec. 5.-A special to
the News from Austin, says Attorney
General Bell to-day filed suit in the
District Court of Travis county against
the Shippers Compress Company, to
forfeit its charter, and for penalties.
The petition alleges that the officers
of the company entered into an agree
ment or combination to restrict trade
and commerce; that they agreed to
buy UP and acquire all the properties.
assets. custom and trade of certain
competing congresses situated in the
northern portion of the state, and
thereby to prevent competition among
and between said congresses.
The petitioner alleges that said COM
merce has been restricted for a period
of thirty days and asks for $1,000 per
day during that time.
The position of the attorney gem
eral is that it was unlawful 10 pur-
chase and operate competing COM
presses, and that charter could not
grant such power.

John P. Martin of Xenia, Ohio, is at
the head of a. syndicate of Ohio capt.
talists who have organized a two-mil
lion dollar corporation for the purpose
of running an electric railroad through
a large part of the Manatee section in
Hillsboro and adjoining counties. The
syndicate will run trolley lines from
Tampa, around the head of old Tampa
bay, and down along the west coast,
until the city of st. Petersburg is
touched by the line. 1t also expects
to cover Hillsboro county in many
other directions with these electric
lines, making a network of railways
following the roads of the county and
developing the entire section with the
aid of the trolley cars. This it is said,
will be the longest electric road in the
United States. Orders which have been
placed so far call for forty-two cars.
For the two trains which will be oper-
ated between Tampa and st. Peters
burg, two Pullman electric cars are be-
ing built.
