THURSDAY, DECEMBER %, 1906.

The Milwaukee Journal OF recent
date contained an able and just criti-
cism Of Governor La Toilette and Re
publican State Chairman, Connor
The now famous interview between
these two Republican leaders was the
basis OF the Journals criticism. Gov
ernor La Toilette called Chairman
Conner to task for trying to defeat
legislation which he, La Toilette,
sought to obtain. The Journal says,
in substance, that In Toilette Is right
In the contention that Conner should
have in no wise interfered In the mat
ter, as his position as Republican
chairman barred him from such inter-
ference. But the Journal holds, and
rightly, that Governor La Toilette
also has greatly erred in attempting,
all along TO influence and control leg
islation. That he has attempted to
make legislators subserVient to his
will Ia known to all who are familiar
with the affairs OF the state since he
became governor. While favoring
legislation to check the evil OF lobby
ing, he has proven himself to be the
greatest lobbyist Of them all, and we
believe that history will write him
such. He has apparently acted on
the theory that he was elected both to
make and execute the laws, n theory
destructive of constitutional govern
ment.

AN UNEXPECTED GUEST.
The Butterfly That Lived II, Christ

Bzts5 lTGC.
Papa, Archie and May went to the
woods to get Christmas tree and
found just what they wanted-a little
pine, bushy and straight.
"There is something l must cut OF"
said Archie. He pointed to a little gray
bunch on one Of the twlgs and pulled
out his knife.
NO nor cried May, holding his
hand. Let it stay. It's Il poor little
caterpillar's house"
May was right. One Indian summer
day a caterpillar, dressed in brown
velvet, was taking walk in the
woods At last he came to the little
pine tree and thought to himself.
what nice place to spend the win
teri"
SO he made himself Il little house
He made 1t very tight and close of
fine, soft thread, and fastened up the
door He did not leave himself even
window to look out If there had been
one, how it would have surprised him
to see that he ana his house and the
pine tree were riding in sleigh with
papa and May and Archie.
He would have been still more SIR
prised If he had seen tile tree standing
in the parlor, covered with toys and
trinliets and little candles.
at must be spring ut last" he
thought, for it was very warm in the
parlor
SO he poked a hole in the wall Of his
house, and out he came. But what do
you think? He was not a caterpillar.
ooh, see the lovely butterhy!' cried
May.
He flew to the tiptop bough, and the
children said there was nothing else
On the tree SO pretty as the butterfly.

Before the missionaries and the
American settlers went to Hawaii the
natives knew nothing about Christmas,
but now they all celebrate the day
and do it, of course, IN the same way
as the Americans who live there. The
main difference between Christmas in
Honolulu and Christmas III New York
is that in Honolulu in December the
weather Is like June in New York.
Birds are warbling in the leafy trees;
gardens are overlooking with roses and
carnations; fields and mountain slopes
are nblaZe with color, and Il sunny sky
smiles drcamily upon the glorics of Il

A Thriving Industry In Germany,
France and switzerland.
In parts of Germany, France and
Switzerland every humble householder
takes more interest in Christmas than
the average American boy. This seems
like Il strong statement, for Christmas
is pretty thoroughly appreciated by the
young of America. But, great us the
festival is to them, it is not essential to
their existence. They could get along
without Christmas, but the toymakGrs
in Switzerland, the Tyrol and south
Germany would stalve without this
midwntcr holiday which makes a mar
ket for their goods. There are wood
carvers doll dresscrs and toymakers
in every hamlet and home of the Tyrol.
They depend upon the small wages
they make from these toys to put bread
and butter In their mouths.
All through the winter season every
boy and man carvcS out wood animals
and toys for The factories. Everything
is handmade. \ Noah's ark Of twenty
or thirty wooden animals that retails
for quarter in this country does not
pay the carver more than few pen
MES.
The boys are taught to handle the
knife early, and they learn to cut out
wooden ducks, hens, horses, cows and
other toys before they have reached
their teens. Working all through the
early winter days and nights in their
little homes. they make the wooden
toys that delight so many children
throughout the word.-New York Mail

dignant because we class cattle rails
ing, butter making and cheese making
as unprotected industries. He says:
Gas n matter OF fact, tho "unpro-
tected industries" mentioned are given
very substantial protection by the tar
iif law. On fresh beef veal, mutton,
and pork there Is IN import duty of 8
cents per pound. On butter and cheese
and substitutes therefor the tariff duty
is q cents per pound. On hides, raw
and incurred, whether dry, sailed or
picked, an advalorem duty OF 10 per
cent IL levied. All farm products are
protected, including grain, eggs, and
vegetables Of all kinds The dairy in
terests Of the First district, erroneous
ly supposed by the Democrat TO be
unprotected INDUSTRIES" would re-
ceive n staggering blow were the u
cent tariff duty removed. F"
AS the toiling lrlshman said on N
sweltering hot day when II passerby
remarked that IT was hot, "Well,
that information for us"
1t Ia we'll known, to the discredit Of
the trainers OF the very burdensome
Dingley law, that In It's construction
they reproduced to some extent the
vicious old corn laws Of England.
But, thanks to natural conditions, they
were unable TO enhance to any great
extent the cost Of the peoples food,
Tho imports Of meats, butter, cheese
and other farm products are very In
significant indeed when compared with
tho enormous volume of their exports.
They arc In very truth unprotected IN
dustrles; because, while they are com
PEELED to bear enormous burdens inn
posed by tariff taxation supplemented
by trust control of tho home market,
the crumbs which fall to the farmers
as benehcaries Of the spoliation sys-
tenn are very triiling indeed,
Is it possible that the editor of the
Sentinel expects to he taken seriously
when he asserts that the dairy interests
Of this country would receive stag
gering blow were their import duties
removed? The great Joseph Chamber
lain sought to deal the farming inter-
ests OF tho United States IL staggering
blow, by the imposition of restrictive
tariff taxes in the British markets,
where American dairy products TO the
value of many millions of dollars are
sold annually; but the people OF
Great Britain and Ireland refused to
follow him in this proposed departure
from their long established economic
policy. Their fathers before them had
dear and hungry experience with that
kind of protection.
But why should anyone, even the
most uncompromising standpatter, OBJ
iect TO the term, unprotected indus
tries? There must be unprotected
industries TO bear the burdens of re-
strictive tariff taxation, else there can
be no protected industries. To attempt
to frame II tariff which would protect
all industries and advance the general
welfare would be like man attempt
ing TO lift himself by his boot straps.
We feel constrained to suggest to
the editor of the Milwaukee Sentinel
