The Six Speeches.

Special efforts, 1t is reported will be made
by those in charge of the printing and dis
tribution of advance copies of the Presi-
dents forthcoming six speeches, which are
to be delivered Nh the course of his Missis-
sippi valley trip. to prevent leakages. This
is an excellent move. There has been alto
gether too general distribution of such
advance copies in the recent past. The
newspapers of the country ideally
equipped for the purpose of giving the full
est possible publicity to the utterances of
this character Immediately upon the receipt
of word of their release. and any departure
from these legitimate Lines of publication is
attended with serious danger of premature
circulation. The indianapolis speech was
given to the publisher of a monthly maya
zine and advance copies of that periodical
fell into the hands of those who were inter-
ested in using the information for stock
jobhing purposes. Notwithstanding this ex-
perience copies of the Provncetown speech
were literally distributed in advance of de-
livery, and the character and even the text
of the speech were well known in Wall
street before the President appeared on the
platform. Copies were sent, it is understood
to financial bulletin publishers and TO the
tucker agencies, and were practically
given to Wall street sufficiently in advance
to permit general speculation upon the eff
feet of the nnal Ltterance

Dental speech is attended with such serious

tended to cover the Wall street speculative
and rumor-spreading agencies there can be
no security, and newspapers cannot be held

Fiasco at The Hague.

tariff is moral question. A tariff de
liberately designed to create monopoly
and to give few people the right to
prey upon the rest of the people Is pro-
hibited by the moral law-the law of con-
science. But considered purely upon an
economic basis, the time has come when

never be a one-sided transaction. Mutual

strictions breed trade retaiiations; and so
long as we pursue q policy of hostile ex-
clusiveness we can never hope to dominate

lions with the leading nations" =
A quarter of a century ago when Gen.
Hancock. then candidate for the presi-
dency said that the tariff was local ques-
tion the country laughed. and his oppo-
nents pointed to the remark evidence of
his unfamliarity with great public mat
tiers and his lack of qualification for great
public office. Fourteen years later when
Gen. Hancock's party. in control of both
Congress and the presidency, took up the
tariff for revision. it treated the tariff as
local question. That Is to say, localities
desiring protection on particular industries
got it. Pressure was all that was neces-
sary to secure the favor.
We have to consider. then. how far Gov.
FOLK speaks lot MS party HOW Inc E1'iS-
fish of his observation is that protection is
robbery. and that robbery is morally wrong.
Protection policy, therefore, being
morally wrong, must be overthrown That
Is what Gov. Folk stands for. and that is
what his nomination for the presidency
would mean. Shall We see the democracy
take such ground next year? Not very
likely. It's tariff plank will be drawn with
great care and its speakers coached in in
terpreting it to the crowds that gather to
hear them. Not soon again will such spout
ing be heard on the stump as characterized
the campaign of 1892, when protection was
challenged to battle to the death. with the
result that 1t is stronger today, fifteen
years later than ever before.
Gov. Folk is a free trader, and platform
affording him comfortable footroom would
not be accepted by the people at the polls.
We can get rid of all oppressive monopolies
without destroying the policy which has
brought US into the front rank of produc-
ing nations.

Dewey on the Philippines.


From the Washington Post.
The words of Admiral Dewey in refer
ence to the Philippines are like a fresh
breeze. giving ZeSt and optimism and a
feeling of strength. The feeble and
chickenhearted suggestion that Americans
should abandon the Philippines. thereby ac-
knowledging themselves to be unworthy of
the blood of those who wrested this coun-
try from the wilderness and the savage
meets with the rebuke it deserves from this
man of red blood and heroic achievement
There is nothing of the craven about
George Dewey. He knows sonnet hing of
great duties to be performed and obstacles
to be overcome. He has demonstrated, in
a manner that all mankind may under
stand his right to speak when words are
needed from strong men.
