IT IS WISE TO GO SLOW.
Tariff Tlnkerlng Would Be Productive
Of Harmful Results.

1t is an acknowledged fact that the
wages of the American workmen are
higher than in any other country. Not
only in protected industries, but In
all lines of mercantile and manufac-
turing business, the wages of the Amer
lean workman are higher. In some of
the trades, notably the building trades,
wages have reached a particularly
high standard, and the hours of labor
have been materially shortened.
1t is safe to say that despite the ad-
vance in the prices of commodities
of all kinds, the condition of the
American workman Is superior to any
other workmen.
To maintain this superiority and
to keep the American standard OF
wages and living where they are to-
day should be the purpose Of all tariff
Legislation. IN many lines OF indus
try the protection OF tariff Is abso-
lutely necessary. Others do not de
pend upon the tariff and would not be
brought into direct competition with
foreign labor conditions, but the pros
perity Of the country demands that
protection should be provided where
1t is needed, Cor all share In the gen.
eral prosperity Of the nation,
There may be tariff schedules which
afford at present unnecessary protec-
ton. There may be inequalities which
should be corrected. but In the main
the Dingley tariff has been a great
boon for the American people. Under
its fostering provisions the country
emerged from chaotic conditions and
hard times and entered upon a period
of unprecedented prosperity which
might well be called the golden era.
That prosperity has continued so
strong and sure that even the great
crisis in Wall street has failed to per-
manently disturb the general business
of the nation.
Under such conditions the decision
Of the dominant party to let the tariff
alone for the present seems wiser. To
tinker would be to destroy confidence
and create uncertainty. 1t is far better
ito bear those ills We have than fly to
others that We know not of."-Law.

THE sINEWs OF WAR.
Neither Party Likely to Lack Money
In Coming Election.

-
The New York Times sees the mat.
ter in this way:
1.-THE prospects are that the coming
election will be less Influenced by the
use OF money than any In a long time.
The interests that In the past are be.
lieved to have supplied the sinews OF
war in the largest amount are not
likely to open their check books very
wide for either Of the two chief par
ties. Indeed, the men who have been
most famous for alleged liberality are
now inclined to regard the issue as
foregone, and that is not an opinion
which would induce them to pay out
cold cash"
This, today, is persuasive. but 1t
would not be safe to calculate on 1t.
Just now some OF the interests" are
pinched, and others are ~disgruntled.
All are advertising reforms as to the
future. Their talk is Of holding aloof
from the political game, and letting
things take their W course. They
complain Of ingratitude. and declare
that their latest campaign contribu-
tons were obtained practically on
false %pretenses.
This humor and this situation will
pass. Confidence Is returning, and
business will be humming again. With
the great supply Of money back in cir
culation once more. the blue will dis
appear and everything will be normal.
Business will be normal. Politics will
be normal. The man or the corpora
ton whose affairs are involved in the
national policies presented In the cam
paign will take sides, and, taking
sides. will assist In the work in hand.
Now n of the policies to be pre-
scented is the tariff. and the tariff
touches at nearly all points. There
Is not a great industry In the country
which will not feel greatly concerned
about next years result at the polls.
All Of them realize that revision of the
tariff is coming, but none wants It
executed on free-trade lines, or lines
in any measure inimical to a sound ap-
pllcation of the policy of protection.
Men in charge of great industries
take nothing for granted. 1t is against
thO iuit u hti optl dtiOho ihey
may be feeling at present that the
election is as good as decided; that
with Mr.. Bryan again the Democratic
candidate the Democracy will again go
to defeat. But after the battle begins;
after Mr.. Bryan unlimbers his tongue
and all Of the heavy artillery on that
side gets into action, a different ap-
pearance may come over the field.
Those who have interests at stake,
and feel that a subscription will help,
will chip in when and where they
think 1t will do the most good. And
they will do this without violating any
law, or going counter to the rule Of
everyday action.
Neither side will go broke next
year. Mr.. Bryan was not on short
commons In either Of his races, and
even Judge Parker had substantial
financial support. What we call
sinews Of war will be collectible as
long as war Is waged.

Those who are crying out against
the tariff laws and say that the farm
ers are not getting the benefits Of
protection. should look owe the rec
ords OF the past, and see II there ever
was q period when the farmer In this
country got so much for his produce
as within the past ten years. With
1000 millions Of produce to the credit
OF agriculture this year, 1t is a good
time for those who dig wealth from
the ground to look closely into the
matter and see what party the pro-
tective policy OF the Republican party
has taken in securing remunerativo
prices. In the interest of his own n.
nancial prosperity let the farmer lay
aside any consideration Of the partisan
view, and do a little figuring on the
problem Of the conditions changed, so
that his products would be seeking
a market in foreign countries to feed
the poorly paid working men there.
instead Of at home 10 better paid and
better fed and clothed workingmen.-

Government Deposits.

No n need feel concerned lest the
need OF reducing slightly the very
large United States government de-.
posits in banks may affect the money
markets u~nfavorably or delay the
restoration Of entirely natural and
wholesome financial conditions. There
is no p%ertinence in the sugges.
ton that since the banks protested
against government Withdrawals last
spring they must be more adversely
affected now.
Then the federal governments rev
enues far exceeded its expenditures.
Then the treasury hoard OF gold was
piling up steadily. Money drawn from
the banks would not have found its
way back into general use. 1t would
have been locked up In the treasury
vaults. But o the outgo of the
treasury exceeds its income. Rev.
enues have decreased so much that
they fall below the expenses Of the
nation. There is a constant cutting
down of the treasury's still enormous
stock OF money-nearly all deposited
in national banks where 1t can be OF
general service to the country.
Therefore the money which the gov,
eminent will have to withdraw from
the banks will Immediately get into
circulation. 1t will be used to pay gov
eminent bills. 1t will not stay in the
treasury. 1t will not be withdrawn
from the service Of the people. The
banks will get 1t again almost as fast
as they pay 1t to the government
Under such circumstances, there is nc
possible harm in moderate withdraw
ais of funds needed for the current
expenses Of the nation.-Cleveland

Statement for the state.

1.-THE defense in this case is insan.
ity, gentlemen of the jury. 1t is left
to you to decide whether or not Harry
X. Thaw owes to the state %eXpiation
for his criminal murder, on the roof
of the Madison Square Garden, OF
Stanford White, an architect or this
city. Insanity is a real defense, but In
the case at the bar | believe we will
not find the contention properly taken.
we shall show you that before
committing his crime, Thaw, in con
versation with men well known. who
will tell their own story. talked as
could only have talked a rational
a Why, Thaw talked with James
Clinch Smith for a long time before
he killed White. A dozen different
subjects, ranging from Wall street to
light comedy, from an ocean voyage
an, were discussed. And from this
conversation with a man he knew, In
which he talked nationally and at
times humorously. he went directly to
the seat occupied by Stanford White,
and, creeping up behind him, swung
around his side and shot the sitting
man through the eye, the ball enter
ing the brain. Two other shots were
fred, and then this criminal displayed
the gun with which he committed his
crime and was at once arrested.
I'VE contend that the killing OF
Stanford White was deliberate and
premeditated murder, that his respon.
sibility under the law is undoubtedly
apparent; that he fired three times to
make his dastardly crime trebly sure;
and when the evidence is all in we
shall ask you for a verdict OF murder
In the first degree"
