ENEMY OF TARIFF.
Labor World Sees Danger in Bryan
Plan of Tariff for Revenue Only.
(From the Labor World

Labor World Sees Danger in Bryan
Plan of Tariff for Revenue Only.
(From the Labor World.)
Workingmen and producers generally
should not delude themselves with the
belief that, If Mr.. Bryan shall be elect
ed President, his plans for revision OF
the tariff will present no menace to the
country. Mr.. Bryan is the professed
enemy of the tariff system. He would
impose duties, if at all, for revenue
purposes only. On articles competing
with what lie chooses to call trust-made
goods he would have no duty at ALL
Any apparent deficit in import duties
arising from revised schedules he esti-
mates would be more than made up by
increased imports. Of course, his hope
is to strike at the great protection
States, which happen to be Republican
in politics, like Pennsylvania, New
York, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, West Vir-
ginia, etc. 1t does not seem to matter
to him that every dollars worth of for
eign goods in the competitive class COM
or free trade basis necessarily by so
much reduces the demand for home
goods, thus displacing just that much
American labor. What he wants to do
is to rebuke and avenge himself upon
protected manufacturers who do not
agree woth him in politics and who will
have none of him at the polls, says an
exchange.
But while Mr.. Bryan is cunning for
protected industries and Republican
States. once his proposed tariff law
should be in force it would fall alike
upon all sections Of the country, the
only differences between one State and
another being In the degree Of hardship
imposed.
We hear of workingmen saying that
this time they intend to vote for Mr..
BRYAN. because for the past ten months
we have had hard times. But what
good will that do? How is tariff for
revenue, ignoring the protection idea
altogether, going to open the shops and
mills? How will the election Of Sena-
tors by direct vote start the wheels of
industry? Or the publication of cam
paign contributions? Or the further
harassment Of the railroads? Or the
reorganization Of the House, so that
the Speaker may be powerless? Why
open this country now to the markets
of the world when we have not suffi-
Gent demand to consume what we our
selves manufacture? Under Republi-
can rule we have just had ten years OF
UNPARALLELED prosperity. Under Dem
ocratic ADMINISTRATIONS we have never
had prosperity for any period, long or
short.

BoUTELL ON BRYAN
Is His "Shall the People Rulep"
Simply ga Local IssueP"

Simply ga Local 1sSueF
Congressman Henry Sherman Bou-
tell of Chicago, commenting on MI.
Bryan's speech in Iowa, says:
Mr.. Bryan's question, "Shall the peo-
pie ruler" implies that somewhere III
this country the people do not rule.
The only States where the people do
not rule are the States that are ex-
pected to give overwhelming majorities
for the Democratic ticket Perhaps
Mr.. Bryan thinks that his question Is
purely ga local ISSUE" If he is SIM
cere, challenge him to make speech
in Vicksburg, Miss, on Government
by the People" Let him repeat one OF
his famous anti-imperialist speeches.
simply changing three words, SUBSTITUTE
ing mississippi for Philippines" anu
"black brothers" for 'brown brothers.
Let him suggest that we have as chair
man of his meeting John Sharp VIII
liams, leader of the Democrats III Con
gress, and as vice-chairmen the other
members of the Congressional delega
ton from Mississippi.
And after he has made his speech
In vicksburg, if he shall have escaped
the rule Of the people in that COM
munity, dare Mr. Bryan to repeat
hts grafton on popular government III
Charleston, S. c., with Senator Til
man as chairman of his meeting. TT
Bryan's sentiments have a purely geo.
graphical sincerity. His epigrams and
startling conundrums are especially de-
signed to meet local demands. or this
nature are all his views on tariff and
taxation.
Mr.. Bryans proposition that every
time a trust is formed a tariff SEIZED
ule should be repealed, and every time
a trust is dissolved new duty should
be added, is too funny even for comic
opera.
If on March 4 next Mr.. Bryan should
become President, with Democratic
Congress In both houses, and should
actually place upon the statute books
the financial and economic vagaries de-
nvered by him in his speech of last
Friday, it would plunge the nation into
bankruptcy and bring on industrial
chaos. If he should begin by repeating
the duty on sugar to punish the sugar
trust, he would upset the national
finances by losing $60,00000O year
In revenues, and would stir up reyo-
luton in Louisiana, Utah, Colorado
and Michigan. Then, if he should re-
peal the duty on cotton goods, because
some hustling manufacturers Of New
England or the Carolinas were dump
ing goods in China in rivalry with Eng
land and Germany. be would divert
other millions from the treasury and
invite still further industrial ruin.
But, of course, Mr.. Bryan would do
none Of these things, any more than
be will invade The solid South and suns-
mon the cohorts of Democracy to the
defence of the Constitution with the
battle cry "Shall the People Ruler"
Mr.. Bryan simply does not mean what
he says What he utters with Chad
bandian JUNCTION in the North he repudi-
afes with Pecksnifian Implicitly in the
South.

sure you that I heartily agree with
your conclusion that the conservation
of the natural resources Of our country
presents a problem demanding the
best thought Of our times is superhu-
GUS. We have been exploiting our
resources with no thought Of the NOR
row, and the claims OF posterity upon
US should certainly be taken into ac-
count"
In his letter Of Invitation to the
conference President Roosevelt said:
There is no other question now
before the nation Of equal gravity
with the question Of conservation Of
our natural resources, and It Is the
plain duty Of US who, for the moment,
are responsible. to take inventory Of
the natural resources which have been
handed down to US, TO forecast the
needs OF the future. and 50 handle the
great sources Of our prosperity as
not to destroy IN advance all hope Of
the prosperity Of our descendants"
The need for such a conference Is
illustrated by a few facts Youched for
BY investigators. Government experts
say that between 900. .00O. 900 and 400.
100000 tons OF coal were lost In 1905
by penny wise and pound foolish
methods. and that the total so wasted
since the beginning Of the Industry
is $4,000, 100000 tons. Millions upon
millions Of horsepower are going to
waste through failure properly 10
utilize and conserve the Eaterpower Of
the United States.
The construction Of reservoirs at
the sources OF streams In which hood
waters may be stored to be released
at periods OF low water is expected
not only to keep the waters at a con-
tinuous level, but prevent the destrue-
ton Of property BY foods, maintain
constant levels for navigation and to
develop water power.
At the present rate Of timber con.
sumption it Is estimated that the price
Of every kind Of lumber will be about
double the present price only one de-
cade from today.
It Is said that the total iron ore
available in the world today is g..
900 900 900 tons, Of which threehfths
is in the United States. Should the
rate Of consumption continue to IN.
crease in the United States IN the
same ratio that it has In the course OF
the last score Of years. at the end Of
two centuries there would be no
more ore to be mined.
In the United States there Is an area
OF IT'S. 600. 900 acres OF land susceptible
to reclamation BY irrigation. and 50O.
100000 acres OF western public range
which may be made available for in.

members Of the supreme court, the
governors and the other more dis
tinguished guests. Clifford Pinchot,
chief Of the forestry division, gave
reception to the governors and the IN
land Waterways association on May
IA. On the afternoon Of May Is Mrs.
Roosevelt gave garden party on the
White House grounds for all the dele

That the conference attracted world
wide interest was evidenced BY the
fact that many OF the foreign diplo-
mats at Washington followed the af
fairs Of the convention closely.
Those who were in close touch with
the conference arrangements declare
they have never known another move
