The free traders ask our attention
to the fact that most of these indus
tries are independent of protection,
so that the higher rates commanded
by American labor cannot be traced
to the tariff. If men were born with
some conformation of the hands
which destined them for a specified
trade, there would be force in this
argument. But as every man is free
to choose whether he will enter upon
an employment directly affected by
the tariff or one that is not, it is to
be presumed that employers in the
latter have to compete for workmen
with some reference to the fact that
other channels of employment are
open. The free traders among our
farmers complain that since the fac
tories became so numerous they can
not get a barn painted at the rates
they used to enjoy. Yet barn paint
ing is not protected.
We are also invited to observe that
wages are higher in Great Britain
than in France or Germany, both
countries which have protective tar
ifs, while Great Britain has none.

Short Circular Capes in style.

Short Circular Capes In STYLE
Short circular capes are all the
fashion right now. Those most in
vogue for late August days and early
autumn weather are of coarse lace;
any lace like Cluny, BRUCE or point
Venise is in favor. The capes vary IN
length. Sometimes they fall just to
the shoulders, other reach to the bust
line, and still others touch the waist
In ecru or dyed to match the color
of the gown they will be the most
fashionable during the early fall. The
smart girl is sure to contrive many
novel ways of adding to the charm OF
her cape. She may fasten it down the
front with big, artistic-looking but
tons, or it may have the effect OF be-
ing tied together with many smart
looking little black satin bows. II
she wishes to more decidedly change
its effect she will slip satin messaline
or velvet ribons through the meshes
of the lace at either side Of the front.
At the neck the ribbons are tied in
rosettes, and then again bit further

We have. noticed that the man who
calls it "roomytiz" somehow seems to
suffer more.

Every housekeeper should know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 Ozone full
pound-while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in %-pound pack
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you a
1907. package 1t is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose Of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let
ters and figures "16 ozs." Demand
Defiance and save much time and
money and the annoyance of the iron
sticking. Defiance never sticks.

party protest on a number of PROPOSE
tons during the day, especially on an
effort OF different minority members
to secure an amendment to fix the price

Midvalo Steel Co. Several amend
merits were ruled out on points of or
der. and the Republican leaders by
skilful parliamentary tactics left the
matter of armOr plate i'll the discretion
of the secretary OF the navy. An in
effectual attempt was made to have
the S-hour law applied to all ship con-
struction. The contest over submarine
boats were quite exciting and an
amendment finally was adopted which
leaves the question of the type of boat
open but increases the amount of tho
appropriation for such boats. The

Toxic Cannot See How Latest Maneu-
vrcs at Port Arthur Succeeded.

Toxic, Feb. 26.-Vice admiral Togo's
attempt to bottle UP the Russian fleet
at Port Arthur by sinking Il fleet of
stcne-laden merchant steamers in the
mouth of the harbor, evidently failed,
though the venture caused no loss of
life and the vessels lost were not OF
great value.
Five ships were prepared by Vice Adj
miral Togo for the attempted blockada
Four are reported to have sunk, but the
fate of the fifth is unknown here. 1t
is presumed that it withdrew with the
other Japanese vessels. The five ves-
sells were filled with stones so as 10
make the obstruction permanent and
were manned by volunteer merchant
crews. 1t was impossible to select ma
val officers and sailors on account of
their great rivalry to participate in the
daring venture.
Accompanied by four battleships,
nine cruisers and numerous vessels of
the torpedo flOtilla, the laden
steamers reached Port Arthur, Wednes-
day. While the fleet engaged the shore
batteries, the steamers made dash for
the mouth of the harbor, directly I'M
der the Russian guns.
Details of the attack have not been
received, but it is evident that the
RUSSIANS fire sank the steamers before
they reached the points planned for
their laundering by the Japanese.
1t is said that all the crews of the
four vessels escaped in boats and were
picked up by the Japanese torpedo beat
destroyers. The report that two of the
torpedo boat destroyers were sunk by
the Russians is denied.
The naval department has received
a brief dispatch from the commander
of one of the torpedo boat destroyers
saying that no lives and no warships
were lost and that no damage was in
hicted by the Russians. Pending the
receipt Of the official report of Vice
Admiral Togo. the naval department
declines to make any announcement re-
gardinS the affair.
