PROTECTION SLAIN.

Probably the worst set back froIec
ton has ever had, it got last week 10
the house of its friends. Wnen ships
and material for the construction OF
the Panama canal had to be bought
the President and Secretary Taft call
cd for prices. They found that two
ships needed right now for carrying
supplies to the canal would cost II
bought Ia the United States 81 400 ,ooO,
II bought in Europe would cost
$3.50, OO0-thus on these two items
alone there would be saving OF nearly
one half. When it came to construc'
ton material the same conditions pre-
vailed. Thus material which was to
cost about $35, 900, 900 at home. and
which had to be purchased immedi-
ately, would cost abroad only ABOUT
half that sum. 1t did not take long
for the President to say what he would
do. He ordered that the goods be
bought in the cheapest market. IT Is
not necessary to say what the effect OF
this was on protected industries. AT
frst they were incredulous, but when
they began to realize that 1t was all
too true, then CONSERVATION; since
then hopelessness, if not despair, have
reigned.
One blow laid bare the fraud, the
deesption, the dastardly scheme. This
one act has done more to discredit pro-
lection than all the speeches evel
made against it. 1t was a cold, cadav
erous presentation Of question whicf
has bred dissention and party strife a.
no other question, unless it be slaver'
has ever done. Where is there al
orator who can stand in the presenc'
OF such logic? He may try to explain
the benefits of protection from th'
standpoint of labor, but he will neve
dare DO Il from the standpoint of Ia
manufacturer. TO do 30 is to writ
himself q fool. Had this been a cana
to be built on American soil then tn
protected manufacturer would hav
said to his Congressman "pass la
requiring that all articles be purchas
cd within the United States.'' and til
Congressman would have Obeyed. The
the $15, 0O0, 900 which Uncle Sam wi
save in this one little purchase alor
would have gone into the pockets
the protected trusts. Now they looi
this, and the people save it. The on
reason why SO much money was ever
lowed to be paid to the protected ma
ufacturer was on the plea that he cou
then pay his laborers more wages.
matter of fact he has not done tn
just "a most men do when money on
geta into their pockets, they pay it o
"a suits them. The manufacturer b
grown rich, labor has grown poo
thus showing that the manufacture
is protected, but the laborer is t
plaything Of the manufacturer. o
has real protection, the other OF
such protection az his lord and mas
chooses to give him.

A CASE OF EXPANSION.

Staunton has grown as Jonah's
gourd all in one night, from village
to a CITY. For many years 1t has been
the fond aim of StauntOn to throw her
sheltering arms around those beantl
ful clusters of houses nesting so fOndly
near, and call them her own But her
hopes have been blasted time and
time again. At last, however, almost
before she was aware these hamlets,
villages, towns, or what name soever
they should bear, almost dropped at
her feet. 1t was the general opinion
there would be long drawn out fight.
weeks if not month would not see
tue end, but of a sudden. as thunder
from d clear sky the expansion took
place. Some thought they felt a jar,
others spoke of the "dull sickening
thud,' but let that be as it may Staun'
ton has expanded, and now stands
where she justly belongs in wealth
and population. Just what her size
| is the census taker must make KnoWn,
lust what her wealth is the C0mmls
sioner of the Revenue will make
known, just how much suitable ofhcia
timber we have acquired will make IT,
self known, and all we trust will go al
merry as marriage hell. How much
easier it will now be to say"l live III
Staunton" than to do as SO many were
compelled little while ago to say, u
live in Gallows Town, near StauntOn,
or some other ''near StauntOn, as tn'
case may be. We congratulate Staun
ton, but We congratulate the newl'
AGO uired portion of it far more thar
the old, for they have gotten the cream

The Death Bearing 1osqulto.

one of the characteristics of human
nature is the reluctance to part with
theories which have long been estab-
lfshed and accept and act upon the
results of later investigation. Even
after science in its results. has clear
~ demonstrated the falIacy of the old
and the truth OF the now, there Is
still a tendency, more or less restrain
cd. to constantly bark back to former
views. to the exclusion OF more mod
ern thought, based upon scientific re-
search.
There is some reason to believe that
it is owing to this persistent adher-
ence to The views Of the fathers that
New Orleans is now in the midst Of q
deadly epidemic of yellow fever. It
is stated that many of the medical
practitioners of the Crescent City have
persistentIy decried the theory. now
elsewhere generally accepted that the
germs of fever are carried by the mos
quito and thus conveyed to the blood
of human beings. It seems that, in
many instances. the New Orleans ply
sicians persisted in fighting the cpl
demic according to methods which en-
tirely ignored the mosquito. and which
involved quarantine based upon the
theory that the disease is contagious
and is acquired by personal contact
with, or close proximity to, fever
patient There is also evidence, how
ever. of a disposition to at least give
the new methods OF preventing the
disease a trial. and practically the
entire medical fraternity of the strick-
en- city is united in a war of exter-
mination on the mosquito. 1t would
seem to be unfortunate that this unan-
unity Of endeavor should have been
reached only after the dreaded scourge
had obtained a foothold in the city
1t is q we'll known fact that the
medical profession for a time looked
askance at Jeunar's discovery. which
Led to the practice OF vaccination for
the prevention Of smallpox. Indeed
there are many practitioners today
who comply with the legally enforc-
ed practice only under protest. not
withstanding its apparent efficacy in
stamping out the disease.
The parallel is, of course. not exact

Details OF RAILWAY Accidents.

The English speak rather grimly of
the casualties in a battle or a war as
the butchers bill" Several days ago
we noted TIE size of the interstate
railroad butchers bilI' for January,
February and March, this year. "Ac-
cident Bulletin No. 49," issued by the
interstate commerce commission, sup
plies some interesting details.
In the three months there were
1887 collisions on the reporting roads,
and 1921 trains jumped from the
track; 2S4 passenger trains suffered

tivity in spreading fever, would be Of
invaluable benefit to mankind, and
certainly could result in no injury.
However, old theories die hard, and it
is perhaps not strange that conserva-
tive New Orleans physicians should be
reluctant to change the views of
life time. 1t is true that the last scien-
tffc word regarding vaccination and
the spread of yellow fever by the
mosquito may have not been said, for
very few conclusions of science are I'LL
innate.
The fact remains, however, that it
was by acting upon the theory of vac
cination as a preventive of smallpox
that the spread of the disease has been
stayed in thousands upon thousands
of instances. It is also true that in
the Cuban city of Havana, which now
maintains a quarantine against vel
low fever. the disease was not Grad
icated until the mosquito was recog-
nized as the distributing agent and
was made the object of a war of ex-

Fer Cn-Oreration.

We are advised that committee
calling itself the California Promotion
committee. is about to commence
movement for the organization of per
manent societies in the Pacific states
and their near ueighbors, with the
object of securing cooperation in the
material advancement of this section
Of the country. This is, we think
a most commendable movement. The
Pacific is destined to become the CEN
ter of the worlds commerce and in
dustry, and the advantages of location,
when the point of business gravitation
changes from the eastern to the
western hemisphere must be secured
and enhanced by cooperation.
In the circular announcing this
movement we are told that the pur-
pose of the central organization will
be 10 bring all the Pacific states to-
gether through a close relationship Of
their commercial organizations. The
Pacific States Progress association
will bring about broad. vigorous and
generous spirit of cooperation so that
the Pacific coast will be in a position
to reap the benefits to which it is by
nature entitled, and to command the
respect and admiration of the world.
The Oregon Development league and
other organizations in Oregon, Wash
ington. Idaho. Nevada, Utah and Ari-
iona are cooperating with the Cali
fornia Promotion committee, which is
the central organization of $50 cham
hers of commerce and development as
sociations in California.
It is a good suggestion. Corpora
tion for a common object should re-
suit in material advancement, and in
ncighborIy good feelings. Business in
tercourse should promote friendship
and remove the misunderstanding
that are founded only upon misrepre-
seutations. In union there is strength,
and this is particularly true Of union
for the promotion of common interests.
