Trade description for Exte,diro
Foreign Trade?

one OF the first canons of free trade Is
tnal each country should produce only
1nat commodity in which it excels in
duality and cheapness, buying from
abroad everything that can be made
cheaper there. In other words, we
should not strive to establish and main
tam an industry that is not a natural
one, but devote our whole energy to
one with the product of which we can
beat all other nations.
On the other hand, protectionists
malntaln that we should diversity our
industries to the largest degree posi-

mat genius and diligence encoura ge
1he best theoretical exposition Of this
question is given by Sir Edward SulH-
van IN his "Protection to Native Indus
try but the best exposition of this, as
OF any other question, is the practical
one OF experience.
Inere is no country on earth where
industry is so diversified as in the Uni
ted States. In fact, one of the principal
OBJECTS OF our first and every succeed
Ing protective tariff was to create and
maintain new industries, and to-day we
can make everything that can be made
anywhere, and we can raise everything

IS what the free trader calls raw mate
rial. At least three persons are en-
gagged in making this so-called raw ma.
terlal to one engaged in producing the
last finished product. Shall we then
throw three men out of employment to
benefit one?
The contention that ''if We do not buy
we cannot SELF is refuted by the fact
that we are, and have been for years,
selling much more than we buy.
The free-trader cannot, in the light of
experience, with actual facts and fig
ures confronting him, point to a single
Industry that we can safely abandon.
Every added industry means increased
employment and an increased home
market and larger profits.
No; instead of abandoning a single
industry, we should constantly seek to
enlarge and diversity, in order to en-
ploy every possible acre of land and
every possible human arm and mind.

every increase in the power of produc-
ton, consumption grows, and the labor
er receives larger returns for his la

PUPIN ELECTRICAL DISCOVERIES
They Have Melted Their Finder Several
Hundred Thousand Dollars.

The very convincing fact that a COM
mercial company has paid Prof. Pupin
several hundred thousand dollars for
his electrical inventions makes one look
forward to practical changes of great
Importance in long-distance telephon-
ing and ocean cabling, to both of which
these inventions will be applied. Tech
meal description is impossible here. BY
the insertion in the Wire or cable of
special vibration coils the current is
energized, waste of current is prevent
ed, and it is said that long-distance tel
ephoning will be possible between
places 5000 miles apart. 1t is even
conceivable that it may become posi-
bic to talk across, or under, the Allan

An Incentive to Theft,

A free trade tariff always proves an
incentive to theft by robbing bread win
ners Of work and wages; then they
must be either Inundated by becoming
objects of charity or go to the poor
house. Never were our prisons so
crowded with men forced to starye,
beg or steal as under the Internal rob-
Der Wilson tariff. Nevertheless, it was
hard work under the Wilson tariff swim

WISCONSIN SOLONS.

| Inc Senate was in session Monday
| evening and concurred in four Assembly
| bllIs. In the Assembly the bill apDropri-
atlng $1,000 to G. E. Nandercook for
| expenses in contesting the seat of AS
semblyman Cook was passed. The SEN
ate Dill charging the powers and duties
| OF the tax commission was concurred in
| with only two dissenters. Sixty-five men,
| bers voted for it. The Stevens bill APP
propriating $3.50 to the State Firemen's
Association was passed, Assemblyman
Norton casting the only negative vote
The Overlook ice bill, taxing ice going
| outside the State 10 cents a ton. passed
the Assembly by vote of 43 to %. The
| Senate amendment to the Jones bill relat-
ing to the admission of young children to
| the State school at Sparta was concur
| red in.
The Assembly on Tuesday killed the
| bill drawn by the State tax commission
and which purposed increasing the rail-
way taxes 100000 by raising the IL
| cense fee of roads from to 51a per cent.
In the Senate the Lenroot franchise bill
| was killed The new primary bill, to be
reported Wednesday morning, will apply
to county, city and legislative offices, to-
gether with State central committees.
Gov. La Toilette vetoed the bill designed
to give street railway employees police
powers.
The new substitute primary election
bill agreed on by the Assembly Commit
tee on Privileges and Elections was re-
ported to the Assembly Wednesday morn
ing. AS stated Tuesday, it applies the
primary system to the election of legis-
lative, county and city officers, with
| referendum providing for its submission
to the people at next springs election.
The Senate appeared to be in a hesita-
ting mood Wednesday, and most of the
important measures were laid over. With
half dozen dissenting votes the Senate
killed Roe bill passed in the Assembly
defining drinks which contain l per cent
of alcohol as intoxicants.
Final adjournment of the Legislature
will in all probability be taken May II.
This is the date fixed upon by the Repub-
lcan members of the Senate and it now
looks as though all business can be
closed up by that time. The osteOpathic
compromise bill was passed by the AS
sembly Thursday morning without a dis
senting vote. AS it goes to the Senate

The debate on the Assembly substitute
to the Senate substitute for the primary
bill was held in the evening. Assembly
man Stevens opened the debate for the
bill, Assemblyman Williams closing
against it. The bill requiring BARRIERS to
pass examination and be licensed, passed
by the Assembly, was advanced to third
reading in the Senate. The defeat of the
tax commission bill to increase the rail
road taxes some $61G,000 by raising the
license fee rate from to 51a per cent
has led the committee on assessment and
collection of taxes to recommend for pas
sage the bill taxing railroads on the ad
valorem basis, which measure has pre-
yiously had but few friends.

IN THE SKIN OF A FRIEND
Is Bound One of the Doots OF Astron-
Omer FIammarIon.


Queer legacies are not uncommon, as
a glance over the records Of any pro-
bate court will show; but the bequest
Of Mile. B. to ,Ae French astronomer
and novelist, Flammarion, is probably
without a parallel.
Mile. B. was the possessor Of a won
derful complexion and a neck and
shoulders which made her conspicuous
at any function where decollete was re-
quired. Though not a member OF the
smart set, she moved in good society,
and 1t was at a dinner party tnat Flam-
marion met her, and with the pro-
verbal gallantry Of his race warmly
yomplimented her on her fair complex
ion, laying special stress on the beauty
of her neck and shoulders. The girl
was much gratiied by his admiration,
and the incident closed for the time
being.
Some months later the author re-
ceived a black-bordered envelope 1t
contained an announcement of the
death of Mile B., and added that II
was the young womans wish that tho
skin Of her neck and shoulders be pre-
served and sent to the author to lie
used by him as a binding for one Of
his works. Such is the story as i5 has
Leen told on this side OF the water.
Prof. Barnard. the head Of the astron-
omy department Of the University OF
Chicago, determined while on a recent
visit to Paris to sound FlammarIon as
to the truth OF the story. Flammarlon
listened in silence whils the interpreter
went over the details, then with quick
Pardon" he jumped from his seat and
left the room. In few minutes he re-
turned with n volume seemingly bound
IN delicate calf. He laid 1t upon Bern
ards knees. "Voila" (behold IT.. he
