said Joseph Chamberlain, the formed Co.
lonial Secretary of Great Britain. The
nnion labor leaders in this country
recognized the force of this truth eight
years ago when they gave their in.

favor of protection. The working men
had had a better experience with the

was not free trade. but was meant as

BARNES ON EDM1sroN.

Just what our friend Walter Barnes
is mp to the Democratic party is in
quandary to know. Those who heard his
little speech at the judicial convention
here are guessing For instance he said
there are three things which he regards
necessary for the real man. He named
them as being mentality, morality and
physique and in the same breath he said
he had known Andrew Edmiston sew
eral years and that he was all right
mentally. We went no farther. He
said never word about Edmiston being
moral man. Now, there are a lot of
Democrats who want to know Just what
Barnes meant by that. Does he mean
TO make his own campaign on morality
at the expense of Edmiston, the infer
ence being from his own words that the
only timing he can say for Edmiston is
that he is all right mentally, and that
Barnes himself possesses all the basic
essentials Barnes himself enunciates as
making real man. Again, IN this con-
neetion did Barnes mean to excuse Ed
mission, when he said that mentality
was the real mani His remarks under
the circumstances and on that occasion
are suspicious to say the least and there
are number of Democrats, whose
brows are fuErowed with worry. over the

DEMOCRATIC EpFRoNrERY.

Thomas z. Watson, of Georgia, the
candidate of the Peoples party for the
Presidency, is radically wrong in his
theories of government, says the Gin
cinnati Times. Star, but in his speech of
acceptance he has demonstrated that he
is a judge of political conditions. He
has most deliberately jabbed his finger
into the sore spot of the Democracy in
his declaration that:
Our political history has never seen
a situation SO ludicrous as that which
the national Democracy now holds. 1
can understand how the citizen can
work for the Republican party and vote
its ticket with enthusiastic zeal, but
why any human being should, in the
year 1904, vote the national Democratic
ticket is something that passes my UNI
tutored comprehension. do not believe
that the six and a half million men who
followed Bryan, with cheers on their
lips and warm convictions in their
hearts, can now be delivered like cattle
to the Clevelandites who knitted the
ticket or bolted it in 1896. 1t seems to
me to be the most amazing piece of eff
frOntery for the Democratic party to
30 before the American people and pro-
claim for eight years they have been
wrong and the Republicans have been
right, and at the same time demand
that the crowd which has been wrong
shall be put in the places of those who
have been right. 1t would indeed be a
miracle if any such thing would happen,
and SO far as am concerned, / do not
believe it will happen"
The situation is really unparalleled in
American political history that a party
SHOULD claim its right to election on the
successful work of the opposition party.
The Democracy has recanted several
times before IN its history, but it never
had the nerve to lay down the PROPOSE
tipn that because it had seen the error
OF its ways it should be intrusted with
power over the party which has served
,he nation faithfully and we'll.

President Mckinley, Mr.. Gompcrs said:
''Tne terrible period for the wage.earn-
ers of this country which began in 1898,
and which left behind It such record
Of horror, hunger and misery, practically
ended with the dawn OF the year 1897. '''
It is agreed by an that tine wage-earDers
ore. the principal consumers of American
products, and 1t necessarily follows that
a reduction in the wages involves n
diminution in the power of consumption,
und consequently . proportional de-
crease in production, and naturally also
in the force OF labor required for pro-
duction."
In 1900 Afr. Gompers said, in his report
att IL beyond question That the wages OF
the organized workers have been in
creased and in many instances the hours
of labor reduced or at least maintained"
The Democratic orGtors will again APP
peal TO Organized labor to elect a Demo-
cratic President and Congress, because
prices nre high and because the unions
have ordered strikes in variou parts of
the country to secure increased wages.
The leaders of organized labor, the John
MitcheHs and Samuel Gompers, are in
teiligent and experienced men of. af-
fairs in the labor world. They know
the experiences of the country in an
effort to bring about cneap products,
and recognize the force of Joseph Cham
berlnin's remark, that free trade and
trade unionism are absolutely irrecon.
cilable. They know that high wages
tends to make high prices for the pro-
ducts of well-paid labor, and that cheap
manufactured products necessarily re
duce the wages of labor.
Labor unions have grown in member
ship and influence more since the cleo
ton of President Mckinley than ever
before, there have been work for every
man who desired work, and the wage
enrners have been able TO organize to
compel employers to grant their de-
mands regarding pay, hours of work,
and regulations for the safety of work
ingman. With free trade, or even the
DemoTatic advance toward free trade,
the union workingmen have the cheap
labor of Europe for competitors, and
strikes here will be of no avail against
the importation OF cheap products from
abroad
The election of Democatic congress
this year viii be followed by another
reign of cheap products. such as we had
from 1898 TO 1907, and the cheapest Of
these products will be labor

OUR FoRE1eN TRADE UNDER PRO-
LECTION.

One OF the great arguments of the
free traders has been thnt with free
trade we would have access to the "nar-
kets Of the world" Well, the only
time the free traders have had control
of the government m recent years was
IN the second Cleveland administration.
They did not put ,auCuHl free trade into
operation, but they came close enough
TO it to put most OF the factories in he
country out of operation. We did not
get the MARKETS OF the world. They
may have been open to us, but our
manufacturers were going out of bust
ness so fast, under the ruinous tariff
schedules the Democrats bad put into
effect, that they could not eek the mar
kets of the world. Their own home
market, the best one to them, was in
vaded by cheap foreign goods, however.
Then the protective tariff system was
reinstated by the people of this country
and Immediately the factories began to
turn their wheels again. Within ten
years we nave demonstrated that the
way to get the markets of the world is
to protect our own market against in
vasion, build up our industries, and then
branch out for foreign trade.
We have not had anything like free
tradew thin those ten years and yet
we are selling millions of dollars worth
of goods every year in the markets of
the world"
In Congress, last winter, Congressman
Hill, of Connecticut, told of a recent
visit he had made abroad. He said: II
stood on the deck of a japanese liner
, in tine harbor of yladivostok, Russian
Siberia. In the hold of that ship was
over 700 tons of American agricultural
implements that had come across the
Pacific ocean from America for the use
of the peasants of Siberia, and shipped
there under the Dingley tariff bill.
That night at the hotel met the rep
/ resentative of a locomotive works in
Philadelphia, who told me he had just
put in $50 locomotives, for use in the
Siberian railway, shipped there. under
the Dingley tariff law.
I Next day rode 500 miles up the
banks of the Amur river, over American
steel rails shipped there under the Ding
ley tariff law. Then got aboard a
steamer to go up the Amur l,5OO miles.
1t was American built, towed two steel
barges made in Pittsburg, shipped there
under the Dingley tariff law.
In the Village of Gorbitza, Siberia,
ten thousand miles from here, the viii
lage consisting of dozen log houses.
in little store not over by 10, we
bought packages of candy, wrapped in
paper on which was printed the picture
of William Mckinley to populorize that
candy among the peasants of Siberia,
all shipped there under the Dingley
tariff law"
/ That looks as if we had a slice OF the
markets of the world. but we never GIT
anywhere near them under Democratic
tariff ideas.

q AM A DEMOCRAT

Judge Parker, in his speech of accept
ance, did not add to the sum of human
knowledge concerning his position as a
Democrat who is better and more cour-
ngeous than his party. He thanked the
committee on notification for the con-
fidenee shown by the convention in not
re-considering mis- nomination after ne
had telegraphed tnat he. considered the
gold standard rs irrevocably fixed by
law. This was substantially an apology
for that telegram. The Judge did not
further offend the Bryan wing of the
party by reiterating his conviction re-
gnrting the stability of the gold stand
ard law, or by expanding his views on
the financial question. He rested on
his telegram and in all other things fol-
lowed the motto of his political mentor,
David B. Hill, 81 am Democrat"
He is Democrat on the labor ques-
tion and will SO with his party when
he knows whether it is for or against
the labor unions or tide employers of
labor who oppose the unions; ne is a
Democrat on imperialism and will act

In fact Judge Parker takes no definite,
stand on any question beyond that of
assuring his party that he is Demo
GRAFT now as he was in 1896 and 1900, not
withstanding his ofrense in sending a
telegram to the convention stating that
he believed the gold standard law ir.
revocable, after that convention had de.
iiberately refused to adopt That position.
Judge Parker straddlcd every question

even mention that most rcccnS Demo

says the Acknowledgement of the negro
