"Robbing Peter to pay Paul" is an
operation that may satisfy the debt
owing to Paul, but it can only be done
at the unjust expense of Peter. So it
is with protective tariff. 1t was de-
signed to enable the American manu-
facturer to charge higher prices for his
products than he could otherwise have
charged, but any law which enables him
to do 60, necessarily forces the con-
sumner to pay higher prices than he
otherwise would have to pay. A pro.
tective tariff robs the people, every one
of whom are consumers, to pay the
steel trust, and the sugar trust, and the
food trust, and the coal trust, and the
hundred other trusts which are today
controlling the markets of the whole
country, and fixing the exorbitant and
arbitrary prices which the consumer is
forced to pay.

 The Pittsburg Typothetae had made very complete arrangements for the en- tertainment of the visitors. H. E. Bate man was chairman of the entertain ment committee and he not only had complete arrangements for the dele gates, but while they were in business session he had some amusement or ex- cursion for the ladies. The Carnegie library, Washington Heights Bradford glass works, Homestead Steel mill and Heinz pickle factory were visited. The lady visitors at the latter place were furnished with lunch and given a sil- yer spoon each as a souvenir. They all agreed that the articles put up here could not be otherwise than good as everything was as clean as possible to make 1t.
 The carriage ride and sail up the Mo- nongahela was particularly enjoyed.
