protective tariff. ~Xhile ia Europe
last summer says Mr.. Bartholdt. Il
found that tie people wer unanimous
" opposed TO the American policy o.
protection. IL is bad thing for the
Europeans, but splendid thing for
Americans The American laborer is
to-day receiving wages three times
greater than is paid to his German
brother, and twice as much as 10 the
laborer of England"
That is the reason why the Republi-
can party, which created the tariff. will
defend it. Europe does not like the
American tariff. But the American
people prosper through IL. and will re-
tain IL. The fact that the American
laborer gets twice as much wages as
the British worker in the same field.
and three times as much as the Ger
man laborer. furnishes a complete vim
dication of the Republican protective
policy. The tariff Is largely RESPONSE
BILE for the American workers pre-eln-
inence among his fellows all over the
world. Over 100000 immigrants
come to the United States every year
to share in LIE prosperity which the
Republican party's tariff policy has
won for the country
The tariff which the Republican par
ty has devised, and which 1t will main
tain. is for the United States only. No
effort was made by the trainers of the
tariff to please England. France, Ger
many. or any other old-werld country
The interests Of the American worker
were the sole concern of the Republican
party in creating. the tariff. By the
American worker is meant the entire
body of the population. consumers as
we'll as producers. Nearly all Ameri-
cans are workers at some sort of en-
ployment All of them consume. Most
or them produce as well as consume.
The interests of all Americans were
the Dingley tarif, as well as by tie
Republicans who shaped all the other
protective measures back TO the Morrill,
tariff of 1861. These men legislated
for the United States, and not for Eu-
rope. This is one of the differences be-
tween the Republican and the Demo-
cratic parties. The Democratic tariff
of 1894, the Wilson-Gorman tariff, was
in the interest of Europe rather than
that of the United States The same
would be true of Democratic tariff
which would be framed to-day. or In
1908. The Republican idea of tariff
for Americans Is what the American
peOplp like hest-St I.ouls Elob<.-
Democrat.

P()IfCQ| Comment.



1t would be easy TO exaggerate the
Importance of the japanese incident.
but it would be foolish 70 dismiss II as
unworthy OF serious consideration, says
the St Louis Globe Democrat. The at
tentlon which 1T is receiving from the
President and the Cabinet shows thai
the heads of our government are alive
to the possible gravity of the situation
No sane person will believe this Hob
son hysteria that an ultimatum has
been sent by Japan TO the President,
and which he prefends said, Take
back our people to your public schools
in California or take the consequences"
Hobson says be has seen the ultimat-
UNI, but this will serve to throw add
tional discredit on the yarn. Japan's
easy victory over Russia has made her
vain and autocratic. but she is not
demeEted enough TO talk in that strain
to the United States at this stage OF
the California dispute. or at any stage
which that controversy is likely to as
sumo The matter of the exclusion OF
japanese children from the white
schools of San Francisco is pending
In the United States Court This court
will not be hurried in its decision by
any menace which could come from
Japan. nor would its action be affected
in the faintest degree by any threat or
Establishment from Toxic.
But Washington Is aroused to the
fact that the situation contains pos
sibilities of trouble Saa Francisco is
determined to keep the japanese out
of the white schools, and the whole
State of California stands with her on
this issue. Apparently, also. the entire
Pacific coast is in the San Francisco
mood on this issue. That position, too.
is winning friends all over the coun-
try. Any menace which would come
from Japan would instantly place the
entire American people in accord with
the San Franciscans. Unless Japan
intends to force war on the United
States she will see the necessity of
acting very discreetly in this matter.
Our courts are not TO be hurried by
any menaces from the outside. Wash
ington is not taking orders from Toxic
or any other foreign capital The gen.
tlemen who are shaping the policy of
the Mikado's government know all this.
it is safe to say, or if they are ignor-
ant of this elementary truth they are
likely to be enlightened on that point
before the controversy ends As the
matter stands at present our position
is plain. We are awaiting the decision
OF the courts as to whether San Fran
cisco has the right, under the United
States statutes and under the treaty
with Japan, to exclude the Japanese
pupils from the white schools. LIZ the
courts decision is adverse to that city
some adjustment will have to be made,
pending the framing of new treaty
which will satisfy our own national
conscience and placate Japan If. as
is likely to be the case, thc decision
should be on San Francisco's side, no
concessions can be made by as to
Japan's feelings, and some adjustment
of the difficulty will have to be at
tempted In new agreement with that
country.
