He said in part:
We have large problems immedi-

Instead OF blindly rushing In on the

whether a high tariff on articles

not and never can produce enough or

OF soil or climate, of the settled habits
and character OF our people and the

principle of a protective tariff. to
which you may adhere for conviction.
IF high prices be normal; II they
be the result OF natural causes In

may denote prosperity and good

The eldest member of the Missis-

ton which has complete charge OF all
the work upon that mighty stream,
is Judge Robert s. Taylor. OF For.
Wayne, Ind. Judge Taylor was ap-
pointed in 1881 by President Garfield
to succeed Gen. Benjamin Harrison,
who had been elected United States
senator from Indiana and who later
became president.
II is said that Judge Taylor knows
more about the Mississippi river than
any other man in the country.
The work OF the mississippi river
commission consists in keeping the
channel OF the stream open, in build
ing leyees and by other means keep
ing the surrounding lands from being
flooded. To do this necessitates the
employment of a vast army OF men,
and Judge Taylor. in company with
the other members OF the commission,
makes a number of trips up and down
the river each year.
