The United States now leads all the
countries in the world as an exporting
nation, and yet we have been told
since the beginning of tariff discussions
that a protective tariff country must
necessarily be isolated and excluded
from the markets of the world
Isn't it time that even the most OBJ
durate OF free-traders should acknowl-
edge that they have been in error and
that their most cehrished dogmas are
fallacies? Is it not also time for the
American people to learn to exercise a
little self-control in the presence of
conditions which are temporarily not
just TO our liking? AS we said, this
time last year some of our people were
In perfect frenzy because our exports
in agricultural products had decreased.
Farmers conventions passed resolu-
tons IN favor Of ruinous policies and
our faithful statesmen at Washington
were denounced as public enemies sim

too patriotic to allow themselves to be
stanpeded by clamor.
Never before in the history of our
country has a protective tariff law been
so thoroughly indicated as has the
Dingley tariff law. If on the day of
the enactment of that statute some en-

wealth, in so far as the business use of
that wealth brings it within the reach of
the federal government.
I'VE have accomplished a fair amount
and the reason that we have done so has
been, in the first place. because we have
not tried to do too much, and, in the next
place, because we have approached the
task absolutely free from any spirit of
rancor or hatred.
In any such movement a man will find
that he has allies whom he does not like
You cannot protect property without find
ing that you are protecting the property
of some people who are not straight You
cannot war against the abuses of property
without finding that there are some people
warning beside you whose motives you
would frankly repudiate. But in each
case be sure that you keep your own mo-
tiveS and your own conduct straight.
"When it becomes necessary to curb a
great corporation, curb it. | will do my
best to help you do it. But [ will do it
in no spirit of anger or hatred to the men
who own or control that corporation and
if any seek in their turn to do wrong to
the men of means. to do wrong to the men
who own those corporations. I will turn
around and fight for them in defense of
their rights just as hard as 1 fight against
them when / think they are doing wrong"
The President then added few warn
ings, as follows:
'Distrust as a demagogue the man who
talks only of the wrong done by the men
of wealth.
"Distrust as a demagogue the man who
measures iniquity by the purse. Measure
iniquity by the heart, whether a mans
purse be full or empty. partly full or
partly empty
IF the man is decent man, whether
well off or not we'll off, stand by him: if
he is not decent man stand against him,
whether he be rich or poor.
. STAND against him in no spirit of ven
geance, but only with the resolute purpose
to make him act as decent citizens must
act if this republic is to be-"
On other evils in general that menace
the country. the President said:
WAR with the evils, but show no
spirit of malignity toward the man who
may be responsible for the evil. Put it
out of his power to do wrong; if neces-
sary, punish him where he has Done
wrong, but do not let this nation ever get
into the frame of mind which under IN
finitely greater provocation Abraham Lin
coin strove 70 prevent its falling into at
the time of the Civil War"
