LUCK AT THE RECORDS.
Difference Between Protection RE
turns and Those OF Democratic
LOW Tariffs.

The republican party has been in
power in national affairs since 1897.
The republicans in congress, as soon
as they could, passed the Dingley tariff
act and President Mckinley signed it.
Opponents of that measure declared it
would shut the markets of the world
against the United States. Yet from
the time 1T went into operation the
contrary effect has been produced,
says the Troy Times. 1t was in,force
for only part of the year 1897, and
our foreign trade of that year vas
$1,S15,723,96S, against ST ,662, 1871 ,612I for
1895, and the balance in our favor in
creased from $102, sS2,264 in 1896 to
$2S6,263,144 in 1897. For the six years
1S97-1902 the total excess of exports
over imports was So, 100000. or an
average of more than $5OO,OOO,OOO per
year. In some years the favorable bal
ance was over $60O,OOO,OOO.
The records of the country under
democratic rule can be searched in vain
for any such showing as that. In fact,
when the democratic party controlled
things at Washington and low tariffs
were in effect adverse balances of
trade were the rule and favorable ones
the exception. 1t is we'll to bear this
in mind when certain democratic gem
tlemen are so strenuously seeking to
get back into power by promising the
people to reduce the tariff. Expert
ence has shown that adequate protec-.
ton not only guards our own doors
against damaging competition, but
puts it in the power of American in
austry to so perfect its processes that

the electric lights the city has $4,000
gas lamps operating each night, and
OF these 1000 are supplied with man
tells, which make of them lamps of
"a candle power. Besides these there
are 6.2O0 gasoline lamps.
The gasoline lamp is supposedly
the property of the village. Its pres
ence in Chicago tells story Of rapid
growth. for the reason for its use
is found in the fact that the city
is extending more rapidly than the
pipes of the gas company. Around
the edges of the city, north, west
and south, may be found these gaso-
line lamps. The lighting and caring
for them is by no means small task.
They do not mark paved streets, and
many of them are not surrounded by
sidewalks. Mud, water and trackless
prairie is the lot of him who must
daily make the rounds to see that
these are cleaned and lighted. Each
light costs the city the modest sum
of $2.12 cents per month, the total
Of which for year is no small item
for financially embarrassed CITY to
pay.

leans until the third or fourth genera
tons at best. They know nothing Of
American institutions or American
laws. They are the victims of all
classes of sharpers.
But few days ago one of the Lithun-
ian colony, living In the Ghetto district,
was tried in police court upon the
charge of bigamy. He acknowledged
the truth of the evidence, but insisted
that he had not broken the law of the
land (which permitted him to discard
a wife after he had been married six
months and take another" and so adj
infinitum. Investigation revealed the
fact that hundreds of men and women
In this little colony of quaint Russians
were living as bigamists, and that the
number was increasing each day. They
had been made the victims of sharpers
who were profiting in small way by
each new marriage.
II these people are to remain in the
Ghetto district of the city and their
numbers increase rather than decrease
the only salvation for them, or at least
for their children, may be found in the
enforcement of the child labor law,
the public schools and the social set
Elements. A certain percentage of the
value of the school training which the
children are being given is lost because
Of the clannishness of the parents. The
Hebrew children which the law forces
to attend school may be found after
school hours diligently studying the
Hebrew language. They are not will
ing to grow up without this knowledge.
DOR are they willing to live, apart from
their people. They insist upon living
in communities, and it is this fact
which the societies working for their
advancement find the hardest barrier
to overcome.

DEMOCRATS IN TURMOIL.
reouhlOus Times in the Party Over
the Selection of Presiden-
tial Candidate.

The reader who has no attachment
to the democratic party and is content
to listen to the lament of the demo-
cratic organ that the country is going
to all sorts of bad at the present time
can find mild, amusement in the per-
formances of democrats regarding the
course the party shall pursue with re-
ference to candidate for the presiden-
cy. Those who believe that the party
should be reorganized began decrying
Mr.. Bryan months ago, and now that
that gentleman has turned upon them
and upon the rather officious leaders
who did not support him, the anti-Bry-
an democratic newspapers are hurting
the hottest kind of epithet at him. So,
all up and down the land, these remark
able people are having a good deal of
"a monkey-and-parrot time," says the
indianapolis Journal. Mr.. Bryan de-
clares that it will never do to nominate
Mr.. Cleveland, because he is can arch
traitor to the Bryan brand of demo-
cracy. The Cleveland organs retort
that Mr.. Bryan is any sort of a traitor
because, after leading the party to de-
feat twice, he desires its defeat third
time. Besides, they say, he is a popu-
list.
For some time it has looked as if
Judge Parker, of New York, might re-
ceive the democratic nomination. A
newspaper bureau has been setting
forth Judge Parker's superior fitness,
which seems to consist in his having
been out of politics for several years;
consequently, he has no record other
than voting any sort of ticket that
his party has handed out to him. OF

cost than similar products of foreign
origin, and hence can sell in markets
once considered absolutely closed
to us.
The big and constantly growing e1-
cess of exports over imports tells the
story of what protection is doing for
the United States. Those who want to
see the other side of the shield should
consult the volumes of official statis-
ties which show how democratic low
tariffs left us at the mercy of the old
world manufacturers.

in the breasts of
the native children of the islands.
In a general way Chicago seems
sort of an American headquarters
for the native girls school of Homo
lulu. The principal of the Kameha-
meha school for native girls at Homo
lulu, Miss Ida Pope, calls Chicago her
home. Her family live here, and two
of her sisters We're formerly teach
ers in the islands, one of them in the
kindergarten department who had as
students Hawaiians, Chinese, Japan
csc, Portuguese, Malays, Germans,
Spaniards, Norwegians and from the
different English-speaking nations,
all of them clad in their native cos
tunes.
The home of this family forms
practically headquarters of the
teachers in the Hawaiian schools
when they are in America. They take
an intense interest in the native Ha-
waiians, and a welcome awaits every
native girl who comes to the states
to study, as many of them do through
the assistance of Miss Ida Pope and
others of the teachers from the
states. These native girls go back to
the islands to become teachers in the
country schools, and they are carry
ing with them American ideas and
American ways.
Many of the teachers in the Homo
lulu schools have for years made it
a practice to return to the states
every three or four years for the
purpose of acquiring new educational
ideas, and for this purpose the ma
jor;ty of them study the methods in
vogue in the schools of Chicago.

organizations from the two cities will
now work together according to the
latest plan.
The first work of this kind done in
Chicago was undertaken by the Jewish
Agriculturists' Aid Society of America.

interests of their people, and who be-
Geved their condition could. be i'm

crowded tenements Of the city. Last
year this society succeeded in locating

Chicago. 1t was but small beginning.

Sc families made no impression upon
the Ghetto district, yet it was start
Ing point from which greater results
are expected in the future.
The new society which has how taken
hold of the subject is the Industrial
Removal society. 1t is intended to be
rational in it's scope, and tie Chicago
society is but a branch OF that operat-
ing in New York. The two are now to
operate together, and when openings
are found for number Of families

from New York The efforts of the So
ciety will be directed not only to the
locating of Jews upon farms, but in the
