Both for Protection and Revenue.

Tariff reformers insist that the pur-
pose of the existing Tariff is not rev.
enue merely, but Protection. The
Protectionists, of course, gladly con-
cede this.The revisionists further say
that the rates are much higher than
any reasonable degree of Protection
requires that the revenue produced is
abnormally large. They fail to demon
strate, however, that cutting the rates
TO a mere revenue basis and eliminat-
ing the element of Protection, would
reduce the revenue. 1t would be far
more likely to increase it, at least so
long as people could buy foreign made
articles cheaper than similar ones pro-
duced in home factories. Revision may
be desirable for sundry reasons when
the proper time comes to make it,
but it is safe to predict that when
1t is undergone the principle of Pro-
lection will be kept In mind.

Not Always.

To buy where you sell is a standard
Free-Trade axiom. Protection is much
censured in some quarters for ignor-
ing this altruistic doctrine. But here
we find Free-Trade Great Britain the
greatest offenders in that regard. In
1905 she sold to Cuba more than ten
times as much as she bought from Gu
ba. Her exports to that island were
s9,S13,995, and her imports $S14,S15.
On the other hand, the United States
buys from Cuba more than double
what she sells to Cuba. In 1905 we
bought Cuban commodities valued at
$95,S57 $50, and sold to Cuba of our
products $44,569,s12. We furnished
Cuba the money with which to buy of
Great Britain ten times what she sold
to that country. Apparently Free
Trade is not always fair trade.

Cleyeland'S Bad Advice.

Mr.. Cleveland clings to his idea that
the Tariff makes trusts, and he insists
that the evils which have led up to
the present revulsion of feeling against
corporations were brought about by the
Tariff. Strange then that they did not
appear with the Wilson bill. That
measure closed the shops and mills
and put 100000 idle men on the
streets, but the corruption of insurance
companies, railroad determinations
and all manner of corporate abuses
went on right through the last four
years of Grover, without regard to
Tariff conditions. 1t is doubtless true
that Tariff reform which would ignore
the principle of Protection, las he Wilson
bill did in parts, would destroy some
of the trusts, for it was pretty well
demonstrated that neither the indie
pendent manufacturers nor any COM
bination of industries could so much
as keep the mills going on starvation
wages during the second Cleveland
administration. That administration
effectually halted industry, but it did
not check the scandalous wrongs lead
ing up to the existing popular clam
or" which Mr.. Cleveland now deplores.
If it had Mr.. Cleveland would not to-
day be the arbiter of the great insur-
ance trust, drawing a generous salary
for making appeals to legislatures and
to allay an aroused public sentiment

John Riley, of Belleville. y. j., fol-
lowed a son of the owner into a con-
dictionary store of Martin Flanagan

The proprietor was in the rear
room. Hearing a noise behind him,
he turned and was surprised to see
Ted busily engaged in eating sweets
from the top of a candy case. Riley
was afraid to yell at the animal for
fear he might stampede and do some
damage.
Ted was in his glory. Imitation
rabbits, chickens and other things
disappeared with lightening-like ra-
pidity down the horses capacious

1t was not until Ted's appetite for
sweets had been entirely appeased
that he left the store. Then he walk

The Chicago Chronicle, owned
and controlled by John R. Walsh,
gave up the ghost with its edition
Of Friday morning. The reason
assigned for its suspension was that
it had ceased to be profitable. The
Chronicle had a splendid news SER
vice and it's editorials were as bright
and sparkling as those of any paper
in Chicago and yet it could not sur
vive-could not survive the odium of
its ownership. Though ostensibly
a democrat, Walsh bolted Bryan on
the ground that Bryan advocated
dishonesty, and his paper went with
him. Later they bolted Parker for
some like reason, and it just seemed
as though the democrats would have
to import an angel for their next
candidate if Walsh and the Chron-
icle were to be suited. Then after
a while light was thrown upon
Walsh's brand of honesty and il
was shown that it conformed in ev.
cry particular to the kind that the
people build penitentiaries to accom-
odate. Bryan's brand of dishonesty
however seems to have grown in ia
vor as the kind people want at the
White House. With things getting
askew and perverted in this fashion
it is not strange that Walsh cal
quit the newspaper field without re-
gret.-Waverly Democrat.

A Question of Authorship.

George Fred Williams tells a
story that has an application to pres
ent day politics. According to the
story there was a debate in color
ed club over the question: Resolved
that when one hen lays an egg and
another hen sets on the egg, the hen
that laid the egg is the mother Of
the chicken. Both sides were ably
represented, and the presiding Of
ficer was leaning strongly toward
the side of the negative. Finally a
colored brother in the rear of the
room injected a question-"Sup-
pose a case," said he, suppose the
egg is duck egg, then who is the
mother OF the duck, the duck that
laid the egg or the hen that set on
the egg?"
This argument caused consterna-
ton in the ranks of the speakers on
the negative, but the presiding Of
ficer was equal to the occasion. He
raped for order, and after scratch
ing his head answered: ."Ducks am
not before de house; chickens am
de question; therefore l rules. the
ducks out
President Roosevelt has been
Matching out policies which the dem
ocratic party originated. and it be-
comes a very interesting question
"Who am de mother Of the chicken"
who shall have the credit of auth
orship? AS there is no presiding
officer to rule out the arguments
presented in behalf of the affirma-
tive, the democrats will insist that
they advocated these policies long
before the president took them up,
they shall not be denied credit for
them even though he has acted as
an incubator and hatched these pol
icies out.-The Commoner.

Bourke Cochran OF New York was
the commencement day orator at the
University Of Nebraska. Socialism
and Christian Education" was his
subject and he declared, after say
ing the political and commercial
standards Of the country were un-
doubtedly lower than they were a
generation or rerago. that a hope,
full sign lay in the popularity Of
theodore Roosevelt and WILLIAM
y. Bryan. The popularity of these
leaders, he said, is'a good indication
that the public conscience is right;
that it has only to be directed in or
der to work improvement in tie
present conditions Of graft and
greed.
