COURAGE NEEDED.
Big Task Ahead of Tariff Reducers
in Dealing with the
Trusts.

CONGRESSMAN Babcock is in earnest
when he announces that he Will make
fight for tariff reduction he should
find announcement in the failure of
the industrial commission to obtain
replies from the principal trusts re-
aarding sales OF products abroad
cheaper than at home. Their silence is
a self-impeachment of the tariff which
takes a bonus out of the citizens
pocket tor their higher profit.
Especially significant is the fat re-
4usel Of the steel trust to answer the
ssries of questions proposed by the
commission. Yet MI. Schwab. when
certifying, asserted that If the tariff
msre reduced the corporation OF which
he IS president would be forced to cut
wages. Further than that he refused
10 commit himself.
In the last speech of President Mo-
Finley the work Of such men as Mr..
Baboock was outlined when the former
greet advocate Of protection said that
fcommercial wars are unprotita bic.
II. perchance, some of our tariffs are
no longer needed for revenue or to en-
courage and protect our industries at
home, why should they not be en-
ployed to extend and promote our mar
ksts abroad9 We must not repose In
fancied security that we can forever
sell everything and buy little or moth
ing"
Yet continued grab seems to be the
policy Of the trusts which haverefused
to furnish data to the industrial com
mission. Does their attitude mean
that tho present system of high protec'
tive tariffs will be continued by bluff.

grounded fear that wages will be low

During the past two years there has been distinct revival of interest in the horse. and, incidentally, high-class horse manship. When the bicycle craze caught the public the prediction was freely made that the horse would henceforth be rele- gated to a minor position, while the same pessimists professed to see In the arrival of the automobile the utter ob- liberation of the equine.
 Instead of this being the case there was never time when better stock was raised or when a fine specimen of the equine attracted more enthusiastic atten- ton. There Is no place on earth where better horses, or so many Of them. can be found as in such an institution as RinglinR Brothers circus. Ringling Brothers make a feature of their horses.
