Taft and the Philippines.

There are two main points in the
Philippine policy for which Secretary
Taft seems to stand. One is that when
a people who are utterly incapable of
governing themselves have come with
in American control it is the right as
well as the duty of the American gov
ernment to administer their affairs in
the interest of civilization and prog
ress. That lie does not believe in self
iSh exploitation of weaker people by
stronger is apparent from his plea
for the modification of the tariff laws
of the United States to admit of the
free entry of Philippine products to
the American market His liberal
views are also evidenced by his en-
couragement of the American plans for
educating the rising generation of Fill
pinos. with the object of imparting to
the people of the islands Il capacity for
self government and ultimately con.
eeding them the political independence
which will be a boon to them when
they are fit for il, but would be a curse
to them at the present time Milwau-

An InpnssiIIe IdenI.

Free trade is an ideal theory. Reel,
procity is an approach TO the ideal. If
all nations would do unto others as
they would have others do to them
trade could be carried on along ideal
lines, but that is not the way of com
merce and self defense is the law tha t
must govern.
When a man buys goods in foreign
country he gets the goods. but the for
eigner gets the money. The goods wear
ont. but the money does not. 1t stays
In the foreign country, increasing its
wealth. When Il man buys goods made
At home he gets the goods. and the
money stays Mt home, adding to the
wealth of the country. The men who
make the goods here get good wages,
and the man who uses the goods gets
good material. The country benefits by
encouraging its own manufacturers. If
reciprocity could offer as good results
it would be Il good thing, and it would
not be necessary to hold conventions to
advocate it.-Jersey City !oarnal,

The Real Cause.

Free traders are quick TO claim that
the census figures Just reported show
that the protective tariff is not helping
our Industries, but the real cause of
the failure of manufacturing to in
crease as much during the last five
years as during the preceding five
years is not hard to find. No one who
has Travelled in the south ana seen the
children who work in the mills there,
also the hours the mill hands work,
wonders tnat the cotton industry is
more profitable in the south than in
this state. Other Industries may have
suffered ii: the same way.-!N:::,-- ::---,--,-.

Reducing width of Highway.

The sentiment in favor Of the re
duction of the width of highways from
sixty to forty feet appears TO be be
coming quite general. Petitions from
landowners in the different states, we
learn. are being made to the highway
commissioners to this effect. The
claim made is that too much land is
allowed TO grow up to weeds by hav.
ing the road so wide. as the extra ten
feet could be well utilized if taken into
the farm 1t is claimed also that by
narrowing the legal width OF highways
a better road can be built and more
easily kept in good condition,

FRAUGHT WITH DANGER.
The Dual Tariff scheme Strikes at
Home, Markets.


Home, Markets.
The prosperous west has been led to
believe that a reduced tariff on manu-
tactures would largely inure to its
benefit, and for that reason it Is ia
vorable to any scheme of reciprocity
proposed. But the west loses sight of
thc dangers OF Il reciprocity on any 9th
er line than that proposed by the late
President Mckinley in his last public
speech to his countrymen, when he de
clared in effect that there should be no
reciprocity that interfered with the pre-
tectien of home industry.
That is the line congress should hew
to in dealing with the subject The
agricultural west also should remem-
Der the inevitable truth that its pros
perity is due to the prosperity of the
manufacturing east and that any tariff
arrangement that threatens to endan-
ger manufactures and labor will surely
have disastrous effect on agriculture
by diminishing the home market for its
products. The dual tariff scheme is
fraught with danger, and congress will
be apt to go slow, in its consideration
should it come before it.-Camden Cou-
