PROTECTION OF WAGE SCALE.

Under our present law we place q
tariff on goods made by underpaid
labor in Europe. so that these goods
cannot come into American markets
to the disadvantage of American
goods made by higher paid American
workers We protect in this way the
American wage scale against the COM
petition CT cheap foreign labor. II
the law which gives this protection Is
removed and American manufactur-
ers have to meet the prices Of goods
made by European labor, the wage
scale of the American workmen will
have to be cut down. Mr.. Bryan
and his party do not believe IN the
principle of the protective tariT and
want to abolish it, Hasn't American
labor all The competition it can stand
without adding the competition OF
underpaid foreign labor? The Re.
publican law which protects the waga
scale Of American workmen viii not
be abolished unless the workmen
abolish it themselves by voting the
Democratic ticket Mr.. Taft prom
ises to improve the law, but to main
tain the principle; Mr. Bryan proTn'
ises to destroy the law. Which do
yoI want?

Chinese was the feeling that all we
Christian nations were sitting arouno
waiting to divide up the Middle King
dou, and waiting to get our piece of
the PORK. Now that is the feeling
that the Chinese have; and am
not prepared to say that there was
not some ground for the suspicion
Now you can read books have
read them-in which the missions
are described as most comfortable
buildings: and it is said that mission
aries are living more luXuriOusly
than they would at home, and there
fore they do not call for our support
or sympathy. Il is true that there
are a good many mission buildings
that are handsome buildings; | have
seen them. 1t is true that they are
comfortable; but they ought to be
One of the things that
you have got to do with the Oriental
is 10 fill his eve with something that
he can see, and If you erect a great
building, he deems your
coming into that community of some
Importance; and the missionary Sc
riaties that are doing that and are
building their own buildings for the
missionaries, are following much
more sensible course than IS the
United States in denying to its repre-
santatives anything but mere novels.
But it is not q life of ease; it is not
/ life Of comfcrt and luxury. These
men are doing grand, good work. ]
10 not mean to say that there are not
exceptions among them; that some
ines they do not meddle in some
hing which 1t would be better for
hem. from a rolitic move to keep out
If. but mean, as a whole, these mis-
iionaries in China and in other
worthily represent the best
Christian spirit of this country, and
gorthily are doing the work that you
lave sent them to do.-World-W Wide |

PARKER CRkWLS FROM UNDER

Alton B. Parker, who was supposed
to have been buried so deep under
an avalanche of ballots four years
ago that he would not be heard from
again for a decade or two. has man
aged to crawl out, and is emitting :
some rather doleful protests which
have attracted the attention OF the
public to the fact that he is alive.
From what can he made ont OF his
cries, it seems that he blames Presi-
dent Roosevelt for his misfortune IN
getting showed under so deeply, and
wants Bryan to defeat Taft because
Taft is a friend OF Roosevelt. He
also says that he is giving President
Roosevelt what has been coming to
him for a long time.
No one can blame Judge Parker for
feeling bad. That heap Of ballots must
have lain on his chest worse than
rarebit nightmare; but he should not
splutter out his Indignation against
Messrs. Roosevelt and Taft. The
American people Are to blame for
Parker's very crushing defeat. and
he ought to direct his abuse against
them, and not against the present and
the next President, who could not
help the popular preference.

"Mediocrity will never do for
Willie" said Judge Alphoaso Taft
of William f. when he was only
small boy. And it didnt, but what
Fir Taft has attained has come
through the most strenuous toll As
one man wrote OF him. "He works
harder, plays harder, eats harder and
lives harder than any man in public
life to-day"
The history of the Taft and the
Torrey families in New England for
239 years had been collected by Mr..
Taft's neither when she died in De-
cember last. She was Miss Louise
NJ. Torrey, OF Millbury. Mass.
The American traveller abroad who
went TO the time and expense of com
ing home to vote sets an example of
patriotism to those citizens who did
not take the trouble to register.

MnshInrlon POLITICAL Torecast.

Washington. ID. c., April Is
Next week will probably be a quiet
one IN political circles, as few import
ant conventions are scheduled. Only
two state conventions will be held by
the Republicans. that of Nevada In
Winnemucca and OF New Hampshire
in Concord. The former Is set for
Monday and the latter for Tuesday.
Delegates favorable to the Taft can
didaey are assured in Nevada, ac-
cording to reports from the Sage
brush state. The action to be taken
by the New Hampshire convention is
not so easily forecasted, although 1t
ls likely that an uninstructed dele
cation will be chosen.
BY far the most important state
convention OF the coming week will
he that OF the Illinois Democrats, to
be held on Thursday in Springfield.
The Illinois state central committee,
with only one dissenting vote, has in
dorsed William ]. Bryan for the
presidency in the most emphatic lam
guage, and this Endorsement will
doubtless receive the sanction of the
state convention.
Massachusetts Democrats will hold
their spring caucuses on Wednesday
and the state convention will be held
IN Boston on May Z. Bryan boomers
have made determined efforts TO cap
tire the Bay state and apparently
with every hope OF success. The at
tempt to arouse Johnson sentiment
in Massachusetts, has been a flat
failure.

carpenters which has been at work
for a month on the interior of the
new opera house building will have
the building ready for the plaster

But as the building nov is visitors
can see much OF what It will be when
complete. Floors OF the first floor,
balcony and gallery have been put
in and workmen are completing the
'compo" frieze which extends around
under the balcony and gallery balus-
trades. The art glass dome in the
center OF the ceiling Is now in place,
and the boxes at the sides OF the
stage are being shaped into form
In the meantime the office rooms in
the front OF the building are also
being completed and these will be al
most ready for occupancy when the
