Inasmuch as it is settled that the Tariff
is to be the predominant issue in the
Presidential campaign of1904, the Tariff
Hand Book, just issued bv the American
Protective Tariff League, becomes of
special value. An equal amount OF mat
ter relating to the Tariff in its various
phases has never been incorporated be-
tween the covers of any single volume.
There is no question that the Free Trader
can possibly raise which is not answered
in this handy book of ninety-six pages.
Every fact bearing upon the Tariff and
it's relation to national and individual
prosperity is herein to be found. Stats
tics covering almost every field OF indus
try, commercial and business activity are
here presented in well ordered form, all OF
them authentic, official and indisputable.
AS an aid to writers and speakers in the
current campaign, as well as to students
disirous of informing themselves regard
Ing economic facts. and conclusions, the
Tariff Hand Book will be found indi-
spensable. Price IS cents. American

It is especially illogical to attribute
the present condition of the cotton
manufacturing industry to the tariff
when every manufacturer and textile
worker knows that under the present
tariff system the textile industries of
the United States have enjoyed long
extended period of unrivaled prosper
ity.
The cotton industry is suffering from
conditions which are in nowise con-
nected with the tariff. The mills Of
Lancashire, England, are suffering In
the same way, proof enough that the
tariff has nothing. whatever to do with
the matter.
The scarcity and consequently high
price Of raw cotton is said to be the
cause Of the general curtailment in
cotton manufacturing.
Such conditions cannot be legislated
away. They can only be removed by
the increasing of the cotton acreage
and the growing of larger crops.
This is the opinion of men who have
made study of the matter, and no
amount of sophistry by little politi-
clans can affect the opinions of those
who are familiar with the situation.
If things are bad just as present,
how much worse would they be did
the manufacturers have to combat not
only high prices in raw material, but
foreign cheap labor competition as
we'll The we'll remembered experience
Of Lawrence and other textile centers
under the Wilson-Gorman tariff from
1893 to 1897 is not so remote that it's
lessons have been forgotten by even
the most thoughtless.

attendance of relatives and friends and a
profusion of beautiful flowers showed
love and respect of all.

Protection Makes Opportunities.


1t is impossible to study the tariff
system of the United States inductfve-
ly, giving due heed to the influences of
our system upon the industry of the
country, without noting the important
part played by protection in making
opportunities. Amid all our prospect
ty, the rise and fall in prices, the bet
terment of the conditions Of capital
and of labor, the rise of combinations
In industry and the sudden decline and
fall of many of these modern crea-
tons, the one striking fact which
stands out in the forefront of it all is
that the protective system has fur
nished the opportunities for capital and
labor, has diversified our industries
and made the United States the chief
manufacturing and producing country
of the world and the richest in individ-
ual and collective wealth of any coun-
try on the globe.-Bradford Pa.) Star.
