FREE RAW MATERIALS.
Republican Revisionists Would Do
Well to Read History

Well to Read History.
The demand for free raw materials is
an old one. 1t was the Democrats cry
during their campaign preceding the
enactment of the Wilson bill, and their
theory was incorporated in that bill sc
far as they dared to go with it. But
the decentralization of the home market
which resulted from too low tariff rates
on manufactured articles, SO reduced
the demand upon manufacturers for
finished goods that they had little occa-
sion to use free raw materials.
Under the Wilson law free raw mate
rails averaged but 90 per cent Of the
total imports, while under the Dingley
law they average 31.S per cent Il must
always be borne in mind that what is
free raw material for the manufacturer
Is the finished product of the producer,
and the producer demands the same
degree of protection that is accorded
the manufacturer. The manufactures
Of woolens would like free wool, but
how about the American farmer who
grows the wool? The revisionists in
the Republican party want to make
sure that in the pursuit of their ideas
they do not find themselves in the Dem.

"Woodman, Spare That Tree" was
written by George P. Morris, the story
being founded on an incident which
occurred during visit OF this gentle
man to the old homestead. It had
passed into other hands, and the pro-
prietor was about to cut down the flne
tree, which had been planted by Nor
ris' grandfather. The poet redeemed
the tree for $40, and the stately oak
was thus spared.

A few of the friends Of Mr. and

The programme was successfully car
ried out, as all the old people and
sick ones stayed at home and there
we're none present but young folks,
pulsing with health and happiness.
Remembering the puplit statement
that "New York City put on extra
police when Harvard students we're
turned loose" we we're assured that
Marshal Ganger was within call with
extra men as a precaution, because
the Unitarians we're out. There we're
no riotous proceedings, however,

At a late hour the guests departed,
feeling richer in the real things OF
life, and the minister and wife easier
in the thought that in receiving such
valuable donation, the salary would
not be decreased by its value.
