next Sunday and all week. The
story of Northern Lights" is
familiar to a great many theater
goers. 1t deals with exciting
episodes that befell a military
frontier post in Wyoming or

pealing to the audience in a par
ticular manner. Swifts Wind,
the educated Indian, the surgeon
of the post, an experimental in

the son of the commanding col

A southern congressman who
formerly practiced law in Mis-
souri, tells of an amusing case he
once tried in that state. He
was then a student in the office
of his uncle, Colonel Martin,
who figured in local politics.
The main figure in the trial
was a lazy darby named Dick
Sutton, arrested at the instance
of who his wife, who alleged
that he contributed nothing to
her support and refufed to work.
During the examination of SUIT
ton the young man asked:
'Dick, have you any fixed in

Sutton was puzzled by the
term. Counsel explained that it
meant a certainty, money paid
not for odd jobs, but for steady
employment; in other words a
compensation at stated intervals
on which one could absolutely re-
ly.
Upon the conclusion Of coun-
sells remarks, the darkey's face
frightened.

death from diabetis and nervous
exhaustion caused by hypnotic
practices upon him for several
months prior to his death.
In the case of People v.
Ebanks, III Cal. 652, a witness
was offered as an expert by the
defense and offered to testify
that he had placed the defend
ant under hypnotic influence and
while he was in that condition
he had denied the crime. The
trial court shut out this evidence
and the appellate court sustained
its ruling.
Some writer's and medical jur-
isprudence contend that when a
person is under hypnotic infu-
ence that the person exercising
the influence over him cannot in
duce him to do wrong or crime
unless he is naturally predispos-
ed that way-that this is especi-
ally true of a pure minded wom-
an or girl.

TARIFF VS.. FRER TRADE

desire to submit an article on a
subject which is important to
the people of the United States.
The matter of a protective tar
if is grossly misunderstood by
many of our intelligent men.
This is owing to the fact that
neither the newspapers nor
speakers in our political con-
tests hardly ever elucidate upon
the subject of the tariff. A local
evening newspaper had an edi-
torial a few evenings ago in
which it was inferred that the
tariff schedule now being pre-
pared by congress would be just
30 much added to the price OF
ladies' hose and other articles
therein mentioned.
The item would lead the I'M
thinking to believe that tariff
would be levied on all goods do,
mestic and foreign, when every
one should know that the United
States levies no duty on goods
manufactured in our own coun-
try. It only levies duty on for
eign products brought to our
markets for sale; first to obtain
money to defray expenses of our
billion dollar government and a
protective tariff where protec-
lection is needed. That this
principle is right when properly
applied goes without saying.
The tariff schedule should be di-
vided in three parts.
First. Articles brought from
foreign countries for sale, the
like of which we. do not produce,
should be placed on the free list,
because they do not comein COM
petition with the sale of our pro-
ducts.
Second. Those products
brought here for sale the like of
which we do not produce but
with which we can compete with
out any protection, should be adj
mitted, for tariff revenue only.
Third. A protective tariff
where protection is needed to
enable our people to produce and
sell their products at q reason
able profit in competition with
the foreign products. Many en-
terprises have been attempted
and abandoned in this country
because they could not afford to
pay the cost of production here
with our higher wages and ex-
penses and compete with the like
product of foreign countries.
The remedy in that case is a pro-
tective tariff levied on the for
eign product sufficient to even up
prices and thus to allow our peo-
pie to operate their plant. The
wisdom of this is evident.
Let us illustrate by actual ex-
perience and that which has oc-
Cured and is a matter of history.
Many years ago there were no
wire nails manufactured in this
country. England commenced
their manufacture, and they
were so much superior to the or
binary cut nail that there was
great demand for them through
out the United States. The price
at retail was ten cents pound,
and the foreign country had
monopoly, and at a price high
enough to suit themselves. Our
people erected plants to manu-
facture wire nails; no sooner did
they begin to produce than the
foreigner put the price down be-
low what we could afford to man
ufacture them for, and the re-
The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1909-04-30

there was q congress elected with
'horse sense" and a protective
tariff levied on the foreign pro-
duct. Our people re- opened
their plants, and by competition
among ourselves the price of the
nails went down to 8 cents then
to 6 cents and now can be bought
at retail for 3 cents per pound.
Had it not been for protection
we would all those long years
been sending millions of our
gold to foreign countries for
wire nails, and our plants lying
idle and thousands of our people
without employment. AS it is
weEnow have both the nails and
the gold, and thousands of farni-
lies are supported under good
roofs and their childaen educa-
ted to take the place of good
men and women fast passing
away.
We might give many illustra-
tons along this line. Take the
article of clothing. Millions of
people are engaged in manufact-
uring clothing in this country.
Suppose the protective tariff on
the foreign article should be re-
and we should have free
trade on that line, what would
be the result? On account of
the lower price of living there
they can afford to manufacture
and sell their products in this
country cheaper than our people
can afford to, the consequence
would be that our manufacturers
would cease to exist, and multi
piled thousands of people, men
and women, thrown out of en-
ployment, and men walking in
the streets, their children out of
school and in rags. Nor is this
all. Millions of our gold would
be poured into foreign countries,
there to stay in permanent activ-
ity in the support of the foreign
tailor while our tailors are in
want.
The free trader tells us that
the protective tariff is a tax,
which is not true as has been ex-
planned. But suppose it was a
tax, it is estimated that the tar
if on the foreign article is an
of about IS cents per
suit of clothes. Who would not
be willing to pay IS cents more
on a suit of clothes and thereby
aid in keeping up our home in
dustries rather than send our
to a foreign counting?
One more illustration of the
benefits of a protective tariff.
Many years ago no steel rail
road rails were manufactured in
this country, and the rail road
companies paid as high as $115
per ton for rails produced in a
foreign country. We could not
manufacture them here for the.
same reason that has been given
for the manufacture of wire
nails. A protection was given
by congress and plant after plant
started up and the price Of steel
rails by competition went down
to $500 per ton, then to SIS and |
$50, and now are purchased for
S25 per ton. Instead of sending
of dollars annually to for
eign countries, we retain our
millions Of gold in our own coun-
try and have the rails also, and
give employment to thousands of
people.

Hypnotism has presented some
interesting questions to the court.
One Hayward was hanged in
Minnesota for having by hyp-
motto suggestion induced man
to kill a certain woman. The
man who did the killing was sent
to the penitentiary for life.
The case has been much dis
cussed by lawyers and medical
men. Numerous cases of rape
while the victim was under hyp-
motto influence have been alleged,
but they have mostly been prov
en- to be cases where hypnotism
was asserted to hide the rea

wires must keep such wires SO
that a pedestrian upon the street
could cross or pass along such
street at any part thereof with

it was held that where the injury
was caused by the sagging or
breaking of a wire the burden
was upon the company to show
that it was not at fault in the
matter.

GUESSING ABOUT
THE new JUDGES
Everything Serene To-day,
but no New Slate Yet in
the Conjecture Zone

Governor Pennewill's failure to an
nounce the appointment of the new
state judiciary on Saturday apparently.
has had some effect on tho "indee-
smiths and slatemakers. for there was
not the semblance TO a new slate that
could be heard to-day within the con-
lecture zone-between Eighth street
and the county courthouse.
With the general acceptance that
Secretary OF state Daniel o. Hastinrs
had withdrawn his name from the iist
OF those considered as likely TO GO ON
the bench. the situation over the an
pointment Of a resident Judge for New
Castle county seemed TO be up I'm the
air to-day. The best guessers' even
could not suggest solution Of the
situation. Many seemed to think that
with Mr.. Hastings name wiped off
the iudgeship slate tho chances of
Frank l.. Speakmnn for appointment
were much brighter Others seemed
to think that Arthur w. Spruance or
Reuben Satterthwaite. Jr., might fignre
seriously as possibilities for the bench
before the appointments are made.
Others still were Of the opinion that
Governor Pennewill might appoint Mr..
Hastings TO the bench anyway as resi-
dent judge for New Castle county.
along with Judge Pennewin. Judge
Boyce. Charles NJ. Curtis. Henry &.
Conrad and Victor B. woolley as the
remaining members Of the new judici-
airy.
But all this has dropped down 20
the plane Of pure speculation again.
and there were intimations that sew
eral changes might be made In the
"salte' so widely talked OF last week
before the appointments are made.
One report 10 which no credence is
given is that threats have been made
than the down-State Republican mem
bers of the Senate would not confirm
any judges for Kent or Sussex county
II New Castle men should be appoint
ed Tor the lower counties. This idea
was laughed at to-day. 1t is under
stood that Sussex county is willing TO
take Mr.. Conrad as resident Judge, but
there Is some dissatisfaction among the
Democratic members of the bar at
Dover over the intention TO make
Judge Boyce resident judge Of that
county. Some of the Dover Demo-
cratic lawyers think they should get
the judgeship plum instead of the Gov
ernor sending a Sussex man 20 Kent
TO serve as Judge.
Secretary OF state Hastings to-day
said he had no idea when the Governor l
would announce the new bench.
