FREE TRADERS TAKE NOTICE.
Under Protection This Coustry 10
Fast becoming the Commerce iaI
Master OF the World.

The agitation in favor of the adop
ton of a revenue tariff with several
strong protective features as a means
OF providing the money needed TO pay
Great Britain's Boer war debt con
tinues. and the protectionists are now
strengthened by the support of tho
London Times, the most powerful
newspaper IN England. and the Daily
Mail, which is influential because %
ats large circulation. These two news
papers are opposing a further in
crease in the income taxes as means
OF meeting the present financial CHI
sis.
There is some thing in this for free
traders TO think about seriously.
England is now IN practically the
same situation the United States oc-
cupied when il was trying To get
money with which TO prosecute the
war against rebellion. and later when
il was confronted by war debt az
practically $4,000. Oo0. 900 The repub-
Iican protective policy was adopted
Mt the beginning Of the civil war
and it WAS maintained during all the
subsequent years mp TO 1894. when
the enormous war debt was being re-
duced. Not only did protection serve
TO provide the revenues needed TO
meet the burden imposed bv the
prosecution of the civil war. hut il
encouraged and built up The indus
tries that have given this country
first place i'm the fight for the mar
kctS Of the world.
During all the years that the Unit.
ed states was reaping the benefits
OF protection the manufacturers OF
England. aided ny strong minority
OF the American people. were doing
their utmost TO break down the pro-
tective wall and open our markets
TO an invasion 10y foreign-made goods.
Now the conditions are practically
reversed. This country is fast be
coming the commercial master of the
world, and England. confronted bv
an enormous war debt. finds her for
eign trade dwindling and is bepin-
ming to feel the effects OF domestic
industrial depression.
There was never better oppor-
tunity for the protectionists 10 make
Roadway in England, and they are
likely to take fun advantage of the
opportunity. Whether or not the
prospective change i'm the fiscal pol
icy of the British government will be
injurious TO the United STATES re-

the reward by a remarkable expan-

far beyond the most confident ex.

the state OF affairs during the last

the same time bonds paying interest
have Increased from SOS 900. 900 to

has risen from SI9.OOO.OOO to S2s.-

they have practically escaped atten-

evidences of sincerity I'm tho Insur-
gent Leader. Proclamatios
tn His People.

There ia an air of reserve about
Agnlnaldo's address TO the Filipinos
that goes far toward Indicating his
sincerity. The document is COM
mendable for what il leaves unsaid
quite rs much as for what il saws.
The insurgent leader expresses no
regrets for the past and makes no
loud Protestations of enthusiasm for
the new authority TO which he has
sworn allegiance. He simply says he
has become convinced that his peo-
pie want peace under the American
nag, and he will respect their wishes
He acknowledges that the Filipino in
surgents have come in contact with
IAN irresistible force which. while il
restrains them. yet enlightens their
minds" and he expresses his deter
minathon to follow the new light and
10 accept the sovereignty of the
United States without reservation,
because he believes this will bee best
for his country.
There is more Of the ring OF gen
uineness in an utterance of this kind
than if Aguinaldo had gone into n
wordy apology for his past course or
INDUCED in fulsome Qualification of
his new political faith. The delibera-
ton with which he has decided upon
this action is also point in favor
OF his sincerity. SO far as his pri-
Vate thoughts can be Judged from his
words, he seems to have abandoned
his dreams OF personal Sovereignty
The unfriendly reception given him
by the ragals i'm Manila undoubtedly
has helped 10 open his eyes. II he

are tired OF his schemes and of his
war, there will be more reason 10
