For hundred FEARS we have had
occasional outbreaks such as are tax
ing place now. In the years when
protection has scored its most signal
triumphs the people have often turned
against it, but always to discover and
regret their mistake within a very
short period of time. Secretary Shaw
is the most conspicuous advocate In
America to-day OF the economic system
which has prevailed in this country
with great benefit throughout all the
prosperous periods of our history
from the days of Alexander Hamilton
until the present time. Now and then
1t will be overthrown, but its over
throw will be only temporary. Pro
tectionists may be sad over the follies
OF those who know not what they do
when they denounce it, but they can
always be assured that no anti-protec-
ton victory will ever be permanent.
Shaw is denounced now by some be
cause he is the gre'tc protectionist to-
day, but that may OILY mean that he
may be acclaimed tomorrow. He sure

length of again taking up the free
