Tariff and Trusts

The platform of the Iowa Democrats
repeats the charge that a protective
policy is the parent OF trusts. This
statement was especially blatant
when the coal strike of 1902 threaten.
ed TO bring upon the country a dread
full fuel famine. Congress removed
the duty on coal. and the article then
could come in free from all parts of
the world. Boston Is neal the Cana.
dian mines. and should have been
benefited by free coal, If the claims
made for il were true. Senator Lodge
has pointed out in a speech that the
price of coal remained the same. Con.
sumers in Boston were not helped to
the extent of a penny by the removal
of the duty, nor was any advantage
noticed in other cities. When the
duty was taken off on this side OF
the ocean the price Of coal for ship.
ment was marked up correspondingly
on the other side. American custom
ers made nothing by the change. Al
the end of the year prescribed, the
duty again became operative. and

In this country.
If the duty on coal had not been
removed when a fuel famine was i'm
pending. there would have been a ire
mendous hue and cry about a ''robbel
tariff" and its parentage of the Goa
trust. Statistics would have beer
showered on the people assuming to
show that the duty on coal was the
mainstay of the trusts. and that free
coal would be a sure cure for all the
evils of the situation. Iowa Demo
Gratis have plunged anew into talk OF
that sort, piling up the agony about
a tariff system creating and fostering
the trusts. No doubt that gammor
will be plentiful among Democratic
speakers this year. Intelligent per
sons will let 1t pass for the empt,
rant 1t is. Not N known fact war

which followed the introduction Of
Speaker Cannon as permanent chair
man. He was escorted to the plat
form by a committee consisting OF
John d. Long. The temporary and
permanent chairman met in the CEN

a committee which escorted the gener-

moment the applause was deafening,
the convention rising to its feet.
Still clasping his hand, Mr.. Root led
Mr.. Cannon to the edge OF the plat

yention, as the man who presided
over the greatest legislative body In
America with a grip so strong, a
mind so clear and a heart so sound,
that he would WELD the gavel in that
body for many years to come"
The scene that followed was inspir'

wildly, loudly and continuously. I'm

ance after he had made himself heard
and his magnetism felt.
DELEGATES LIKED HIM.
Speaker Cannon's oratory was de-
cidedly to the liking Of the conven-
ton. He established cordial relations
even before he had uttered a word.
He stood in silence for a moment on
a tonguelike projection in the cen
ter of the platform. His face fasci-
mated. 1t expressed abundant humor,
strangely blended with virile pugnac-
ity. He was pausing to think how to
begin. His thoughts were pictured
in his face. They were pleasant,
they were inspiring. Instinctively he

is what he said, and then he aban-
