in the background when the collec-
tions are being made? Is it not sig
nificant that the manufacturers, who
furnish the funds, are SO little ad-
yertised as beneficiaries? Is it not
significant also that the wage earn
ers, instead of the manufacturers, are
always described as the most direct
beneficiaries of the protective sys-
temp
But let us suppose, for the sake
of argument, that the Republican
party sincerely repents of its delay
in beginning tariff reform, repudiates
its obligations to the contributing
manufacturers and honestly begins
revision What rule is to govern
the revision? The Republican plat
form says
In all tariff legislation, the true
principle of protection is best main
tanned by the imposition of such du-
ties as will equal the difference be-
tween the cost of production at home
and abroad, together with a reason
able profit to American industries.
Mr.. Taft endorses this rule and
says that in a number of schedules
the tariff now exceeds this difference
and that the excess offers a tempta-
tion to those who would monopolize
the production and sale of such art
icles in this country He adds, how
ever, that there are some few art
icles on which the tariff is not suf-
ficiently high to give them the meas
ure of protection they should re-
ceive.'
''Will he explain upon what rule
the present tariff was framed? When
have the Republicans claimed more
protection than enough to cover the
difference in the cost of production
here and abroad. The reasonable
profit to American Industries is an
addition to the rule, and is likely to
be used as an excuse for raising the
tariff. And, by the way, to what
other business does the government
guarantee a reasonable profit?' To
the farmer, or the merchant or the
laborer? To none of these. If in
revising the tariff the Republican
party is to work upon exactly the
same plan Cor a plan contemplating
a higher rate) what hope have we
that the new tariff will be lower
than the present one? Are the pres
ent leaders more honest than the
ones who framed the existing tariff?
Are they not, in fact, the same men
who are responsible for tariff ex-
tortion during the last decade? If
this newborn zeal for revision were
an hundred times greater than his
notification speech indicates, what
chance would the Republican candi-
date have of securing any real tariff
reform at the hands of such Repub-
licans as now represent that party in
the Senate and House, the very men
who represented it in the recent ma

who has suppressed tariff legisla-

dominating factor in the convention
and, if the Republicans retain con-

NATURE AS A FAKER.
Sometimes Deceives Even the Trained
Eye of the Scientist.

On the so-called Table Mounds of
Iowa are numerous impressions OF
what look exactly like cloven feet. 1t
is not surprising that superstitious
people should attribute them to the
devil, taking his walks abroad, though
as matter of fact, they are not foot
prints of any kind whatsoever, but
merely weather-worn impressions left
by a species of mollusk-like animal
known to science as pentamerus.
To the Smithsonian institution not
long ago somebody sent from the Bad
Lands of Nebraska what purported to
be a fossil ham. 1t did In very truth
look like a ham, and, to render the
verisimilitude complete, the bone was
actually sticking out at one end of it.
Nevertheless, an investigation showed
that the alleged bone was in reality
a "vaculite"-an extinct mollusk's
shell, rodlike in form-and the rest
of the "ham" was a mere accidental
agglomeration Of stony stuff.
One day, quite. recently, young
man walked into the National museum
at Washington and presented to the
anthropologist in charge a petrified
foot 1t was received with many
thanks, though recognized at glance
as a water-worn fragment of rock
which had accidentally assumed a
shape resembling foot.
