outstretched to their full capacity.
But every gesture counted for en-
phasis.
His talk was mostly about the
tariff on importations. This is
ordinarily dry subject. but it was
handled in manner so different
from that of the ordinary campaign
speaker that no one seemed to tire
of it. He explained the principle OF
the tariff, as well as its object and
effect, so simply and clearly, using
the Inevitable fingers to count his
millions upon, that no one who
heard the speech could have failed
to understand it. He did not advo-
cate high tariff or intimate that
he was so-called stand-patter. He
even thought that ever changing
conditions called for frequent re-
vision of the tariff schedule to meet
those conditions. He argued not
for the degree but for the principle
of the tariff. and defied anyone to
show that it was not wise and ben
e6cial. He pointed to the wages
received by American laborers in
excess of those of any other nation
and said he would like to have
Parker, Hill or any other man tell
what maintained those excessive
wages in America if it was not the
duty on foreign manufactures.
Uncle 10 paid a compliment to
Loren Fletcher which was as effec-
tual as it was unique. He said in
substance that some people out OF
congress, and some in, had an idea
that the best takers made the best
congressman. He was OF a different
mind. 1t was well enough to talk
when one had something to say;
but if he had not it was simply a
useless disturbance of the sur
rounding atmosphere. He said
Fletcher went to congress, not to
talk but to work, and no one had
accomplished more. 1t was under
stood, he averred, by the members
of every committee in the lower
house of congress that when Flet-
cher got after them for an apprc-
priation for something or other that
was wanted in Minneapolis the com
mittee might as we'll surrender.
They had to yield in self-defense.
He simply tired the committee out
and they gave him what he wanted,
even when they thought he was not
entitled to it, just to get rid of him.
He said Fletcher was the only man
he ever knew who could make a
nuisance of himself with good re.
suits. W. M. T.
