the American trusts and l don't be-
lievc that for the purpose of control
ing American trusts we should make a
market for foreign trusts, thereby
crushing out the industries Of this
country. After my conference last
Saturday at Waterloo and hearing the
views of the chairmen Of my district
concluded that my views on the
tariff question were at variance with
those, Of many of my party, and l did
not desire to appear in false posi-
tion"
Speaker Henderson gave out an ad-
dress last evening which states his
views on the tariff aud trust questions,
and because these views, in his Opin-
ion, are not in accord with the state
platform and with the opinions Of
prominent members of his party he
declines to accept the nomination. The
address is to the Republican voters
of the Third Iowa district. He says,
being a Republican, he is protection
list, and if he ever entertained doubt
as to the wisdom of a protective poll
cy hasty comparison between the
present and the past would blot out
such doubt. He then speaks with sat
isfaction of the tariff planks of the
last two national platforms.
Continuing, he says: For three years
I have advocated giving control of
trusts to congress. In my Judgment
proper supervision can never be had
until congress has power to treat with
them. l am glad to see from speeches
made by our fearless and upright chief
executive that he is advocating federal
control over these corporations, and,
while in some quarters they may sneer
at it, l have not seen any proposition
yet except this that seems at all likely
to bring relief. No proposition has
ever been made by the Democracy ex-
cepting to put everything Oh the free
list and to give the country free trade.
In bther words, they propose to kill
the child in order TO cure it.
"They propose to slaughter every In
terest in the United States, whether
capital or labor, in wild and blind
effort to provide a remedy for trusts.
In my opinion, if combinations could
be regulated and controlled we would
have very little demand for changes in
the tariff laws

MR.. WU'S HARD TASK.
A Number of Senators Tried TO ssPut Him
Under the Table" at an After
Dinner Reception.

Chinese Minister WI tells good story
on himself He was recently invited TO
a reception following a dinner at Senator
Hanna's. He had just emerged from one
of the periodical rumOrs that he was to
be recalled to his own country and be
headed, or suffer some other dreadful
punishment. He had hardly arrived
when a senator came up to him, and
after congratulating him heartily, said:
"Mr. WI, want to drink a glass of wine
with you
Il was much gratiied and compliment
ed" said Mr.. WI, and we 'libated' as
you say. He had hardly left when an
other senator did the same thing, and I
found it impossible to get away from the
table, because one senator after another
came up to congratulate me and drink a
glass of wine with me. I was pleased
with the ovation; but 1t suddenly occur
red to me that these gentlemen were try
| ing tO-ss you say-put me under the
table. Fortunately, 1 had Just eaten my
dinner and had drunk very little, and by
keeping my mind on the subject and
| spilling a few glasses when 1 directed
their attention elsewhere, 1 was able to
go home when the time came, but it was
the hardest struggle I have had since
came to this country. Your senators are
very cordial at times, are they not?7-N.
