Senator Bacon of Georgia demon
strated in his recent speech on tariff
revision that protection" extorts
from the consumer 81 to every dol
lar it carries to the national treas

is in favor of duty on lumber,
which the State says is one Of the
worst items of tariff lewiston to
rob the people in the interest OF the

Senator Bailey looks Oh the pcni-

ventive of nalefactors Of great

William Jennings Bryan advocated

some fifteen years ago.

Trouble in France.

The gravity of political and in
dustrial conditions in France is gen.
rally recognized. That the French
government: has decided to lock
horns with syndicalism and force a
crisis indicates that the situation is
extremely dangerous and that II 1t
is allowed to continue it might force
the government from power and pre-
cipitate a revolution. 1t also i'm
plies that the government feels itself
strong enough to master the sltua-
ton if dealt with at once.
1t is to be hoped it may. During
the 80 years the republic has lasted
it has weathered many hard storms
the most dangerous of which were
the reactionary attitude of Presl-
dent Mcmahon and Boulangerism.
In it's ability to surmount those crls-
es the republic revealed a strength
and the nation a stability that was a
surprise to the world. 1t is this
fact which leads the world to be-
lieve that the present difficulty will
be overcome.
That the government has made
serious mistakes in its attitude to-
wards the church and to the cause
of religion generally must be admit
ted and this adds TO the perpleXity
and danger, for it means that in their
desire to upset the government the
reactionary forces in rural districts
are willing to strike hands with the
revolutionary element III the cities.
Altogether the next .e" Tecrs prom
ise to be full Of interest to the
French nation.
