HOGGATT AND CORSON
 ARE NICELY ROASTED

That the correspondent of the Pros pector did not cXaggerate when he sent this paper the account of the manner in which Governor Hoggatt and his candidate for delegate, John Corson were scored at the mining convention held recently in Seattle is evidenced by the following taken from the Post tlntelligencer: "GoVernor Hoggatt, of Alaska, and John w. COrsOn, one of the rcpubi- can nominees for Alaska delegate to congress, were the subjects of severe criticism at the closing session of the Northwestern branch of the Ameri- can Mining Congress yesterday after noon. J. w. Ivey, former collector of customs for the district of Alaska, attacked both MT. Hoggatt and MT. Corson in speech, and E. F. Ora ham, an Alaska mining man, scored Mir. Corson for, as he alleged, his fail lrc to keep his promise to address the miners. Mir. Graham said he did not blame Thomas Gale, Alaska dele gate to congress and candidate for re- election, because Mir. Gale had in- 1 formed the convention that he would be unable to be present.
 "A. w. Mclntire, who presided, stated that an effort had been made to secure the general views of Alaska mining men on the legislation desired for that section, but that while Alas kans generally had been invited to attend they had not responded in any numbers.
 "Mr. Graham asked that all Alaska mining men present stand up, and there were only five in the entire con vCntiOn.
 '"If the Alaskans fail to attend this convention it is their own fault,n said Mr. Graham, land it is this lack of interest that makes it difficult to se- cure the legislation the country should have. personally informed John Corson, who is now in the city, that he was expected to address this convention this afternoon, and know he has been notified of that fact sev- eral times. There are thousands of Alaska mining men now in Seattle, but they have apparently taken no interest in this meeting.
 LA man proposing to representa- AL aska in congress should accept every opportunity to discuss the needs of the country and secure aids in placing such matters before congress, and propose that all my friends in Alaska will know of the lack of interest that has been shown in this instance.
 '"I do not blame Mir. Gale for not appearing here, as he is not in the city, and I understand was unable to arrange to leave Washington at this time"
 "This speech was vigorously ap- plauded by the convention, and when J. W. Ivey followed in like strain he was applauded.
 Where is Governor Hopgatt9u said MT. Ivey. "He was invited to address tbis convention, but has not even let us know that he would not be present. If 1t were a possible thing to do, would favor this convention naming governor for Alaska and

steel industry has been afforded by
the tariff system. 1t seems strange
that he should decry protection now.'
Here we have an interesting dis
closure of, the logic of the tariff bene-
ficiary.
One of Carnegie's former associates
thinks he knows so much about human
nature that he says without qualifica-
ton that Carnegie advocates tariff re-
moval from the steel business, because
he is no longer in the steel business,
Unconsciously this means that every
man engaged in the steel industry
must and does want the right to ex-
tort from American consumers under
government protection. Inthe mouth
of an outsider, this would be serious
Indictment, but, coming from steel
maker himself it is humiliating con-
fession.
A representative in congress ad
vances the doctrine that man once
for the tariff must always be So He
SAYS it is mot consistent" for Carnegie
now to advocate tariff reform, because
he once profited from high protection.
In other words, conditions may change
industries may grow to lusty magni-
tude, but the reasons for a tariff as
high as you-can- get can never change.
And a Philadelphia manufactures
frankly says that since Carnegie made
a fortune through the help of a tariff
he should not criticise it. This, then
is the real object of the tariff, to con-
fer great fortunes upon those who are
lucky enough to get behind it. Car
negie did have the advantage of a
tariff, he did become very rich, there
fore he can say nothing against the
tariff.
These remarks should be introduc
ed as exhibits in the hearings before
the house ways and means committee
They might be useful as showing the
real understanding of the purposes of
the tariff by those who are licensed
under it. Sioux Falls Press.
