PROTECTION ABROAD
DEMANDED FOR ALL
AMERICAN CITIZENS

So far as the rights of the individual wage
worker and the individual capitalist are con-
cerred, both as regards one another, as
regards the public. and as regards organized
capital and labor, the position of the ad-
ministration has been 80 clear that there Is
no excuse for misrepresenting IL, and no
ground for opposing it unless misrepresented.
Within the limits defined by the national
constitution the national administration has
sought to secure to each man the full enjoy

their color, or their birthplace as standing
alike before the law. Under our form of gov
ernment the sphere in which the nation as
distinguished from the State can act is mar
rowly circumscribed: but within that sphere
all that could be done has been done. All
thinking men are aware of the restriction
upon the power of the National Government
in such matters. Being ourselves mindful of
them we have been scrupulously careful on
the one hand to be moderate ins our promises,
and on the other hand to keep these promises
in letter and in spirit. Our opponents have
been hampered by no such considerations.
They have promised, and many OF them now
promise. action which they could by no pos
siblfty take in the exercise Of constitutional
power. and which, II attempted, would bring
business TO a standstill; they have used, and
often now use, language OF wild invective and
appeal 10 all the baSer passions which tend TO
excite set of Americans against their fell

REVERSAL OF POLICY
WOULD INJURE THE
AMERICAN WORKMAN

So 1t Is as between the capitalist and the
wage worker. Here and there there may be
an unequal sharing as between the two In the
benefits that have come by protection; but
benefits have come to both. and reversal in
policy would mean damage to both, and while
the damage would be heavy to all, 1t would
be heaviest. and it would fall soonest, upon
those who are paid in the form OF wages each
week or each month for that weeks or that
months work.
modified from time to time to ft new exigen-
cies. But the genuine underlying principle OF
protection, as 1t has been embodied in all but
one Of the American tariff laws for the last
forty years. has worked out results so beneh-
cent, evenly and widely spread, so advan-
tageous alike to farmers and capitalists and
workingmen, to commerce and trade OF every
kind that the American people, il they show
their usual practical business sense viii in
sist that when these laws are modified they
shall be modified with the utmost care and
conservatism. and by the friends and not the
not afford to trust the modification TO those
who treat protection and robbery as synony-
nous terms.
In closing what 1 have to say about the
system OF promoting American industry let me
add word OF cordial agreement with the
policy Of in some way including within its
lean merchant marine. 1t is not creditable to
us as nation that our great export and I'M
port trade should be well-pigh exclusively In
the hands Of foreigners.
1t is difficult to know II our opponents are
really sincere in their demand for the reduc-
ton of the army. If insincere, there Is no
need for Comment and IL sincere, what shall
we say in speaking to rational persons OF an
appeal to reduce an army OF so, 600 men which

smaller than it was in the days Of Washing

solution of the trust problem such q change
would therefore merely mean that the trust
was relieved OF the competition OF it's weaker
American competitors and thrown only into
the first effort to meet this competition
would be made by cutting down wages,
and would therefore be primarily at the cost
of labor. In the case of some of our greatest
a positive benefit. Speaking broadly. it is
evident that the changes in the tariff will
affect the trusts for veal or for woe. simply
as they affect the whole country. The tariff
affects trusts only as IL affects all other in
terests. 1t makes all these interests large or
small profitable and its benefis can be taken
from the large only under penalty of taking
them from the small also"
There is little for me to add to this 1t -
but ten years since the last attempt was
made, by means Of lowering the tariff, to pre-
vent some people from prospering too much.
The attempt was entirely successful The
which in that year and for some time after
ward efectually prevented anybody from pros
pering too much, and labor from prospering at
all Undoubtedly 1t would be possible at the
present time to prevent any OF the trusts from
remaining prosperous by the simple expedient
of making such sweeping change in the
tariff as to paralyze the industries of the
country. The trusts would cease to prosper,
but their smaller competitors would be ruined,
and the wage workers would starve while it
would not pay the farmer to haul his produce

CAUGHT FISH WORTH $500.
Fifth Known Specimen Of SaiIfish
-a Taken off Florida Coast

The Iuckiest Cincinnati fisherman
this year is MIR. Edward Hart, who
last week caught large "sailfsh."
a few miles at sea, of Miami, Fla.
This fish is one of the rarest known
to science. Previous to the one caught
by Mr.. Hart there have been but four
others captured; three of them are in
European museums and one at the
Smithsonian institution.
The one caught by the Cincinnatian
weighs seventy-fve pounds and is a
perfect specimen of his kind.
These sailfish are peculiarly con.
structed. On their backs is sort OF
a pocket from which they can put up
a fibrous oval fin, which forms a sail
for the fish when moving at the sur
face of the ocean. When the wind Is
blowing strong these fish can travel
at rapid rate when their sail is set
On the under part of the fish is q
strong fin. which they can draw entire
ly into the body as they sail.
The long sword protruding from the
fish's head makes Of this tribe a for.
midable enemy to the other fishes
They are found only along the Flor.
ida coast.
A few days after Mr.. Hart caught
his specimen, he saw two or three
others sailing on top OF the water and
going at rapid rate.-Cincinnati En-.

of scientific fact, these trees grow to
their greatest height ard attain to-
their greatest size in very wet, rainy

fact that the tree requires a great deal
