Aldrich: "Sh-h-h-h! Don't Disturb
 the Tariff!"
WHY SOCIALISM GROWS.
Special Privileges That Protection
 Guarantees to the Few.

Special Privileges That Protection
 Guarantees to the Few.
 In' these days, when so many easy of Socialism. the time is opportune to point out some of our economic condi- lions which favor the movement
 The Johnstown Pa) Democrat hits the nail on the head when it says that ''the protective tariff was never anything but socialistic." A few mo- ments' reflection will make this clear. Socialism means that we should all look to the government to guarantee us living. Protectionism means that the protected, classes look to the gov ernment to guarantee them a living. What is the difference? Only that the socialism of protection is partial and one sided, whereas orthodox socialism is indiscriminating. We are living un- der a socialistic government today, but government that distinguishes between class and class, government that guarantees one class living and more than living-at the expense of the classes not so favored.
 Whoever enjoys a government priv nege ought to be the last to condemn socialism, because he lives by it. And yet these are the first persons to shout out derisively that this or that scheme is socialistic whenever any compre- hensive reform is advocated which, by giving men greater control over their own livelihoods. would lead away from socialism and discourage the feeling which sustains 1t.
 Protectionism makes an excellent training school for socialism. It leads men to think that the government and not themselves is the architect of their own fortunes. The man who is used to privilege to lean upon will not rely on himself. The true antidote for socialism Is freedom to produce wealth and freedom to exchange it without having to pay anybody for the priv Qege of doing either

CIRCUS FULL OF FUN
Great Company of European Cl0NSSS With Worlds Best
 Show

To thoroughly entertain the public circus must abound in comedy The management of the Great Adam Fore paugh and Sells Brothers Big United shows has organized for this season the best company of clowns. testers and funny men that ever cut fantastic capers on a carpet of sawdust. When this big amusement enterprise comes to Bridgeport on Wednesday. July 27, it means a recess of laughter that will smooth the worry wrinkles out of the tired business man and leave him with enough reminiscent grins to last him a year.
 From the brilliant and impressive opening spectacle to the last hippo drome event, the long and varied pro gram is punctuated with the drollest comedy that ever propelled a circus over the merry sea of laughter. There are fifty clowns in all They have come from every corner of the earth. They bring the latest devices for tick ling the ribs and sending visitors home in more cheerful frame of mind. There is no overworked clown play with this show. The tricks are all new. The slap-Stick and knockdown meth ods. still resorted to by other circuses, have been discarded for the more mod ern methods of the worlds greatest and most successful comedians
 The cleverest of burlesques and sat- lres. travesties on political and public events, clever pantomimes. farces and skits, follow each other in rapid sue cesslon. Grave men who haven't laughed in years shout till they are hoarse. Women who look upon laugh ter in public places as a breach of dignity, are transformed into gigglers of the sixteen-year-old period Chil- dren shed the genuine laughter tears of pure joy
 It is worth more to ones health than A a hn of treatment in a rest-cure sanitarium to attend a matinee or a night per formance of this great show Visit ors will see many startling acts to chill their blood and many thrillers to grip at their hearts. They will also loosen a few laughter wrinkles that haven't been moved in years If it is true that a good laugh is better than medicine, here beneath the greatest spread of canvas in the world is the real fountain of youth.
 There are clowns in this merry army or care-klllers who have made kings laugh. There are testers from Ori- ental courts. comedians from the comic opera theatres of Europe, pantomim- ists from Drury Lane. and the best known vaudeville singing and talking artists in the world
 Not in all the history of circus af- fairs has so much interest been created as this show is stirring up this year Its wonderful growth is a topic of ex- cited conversation on show day. Its name has always been the synonym of success. satisfaction and progress. This year it is pleasing and surprising people more than ever before. Every particle of it's equipment is new. It cost s3,200.00O to build it. Such mag nificence and absolute magnitude were never before beheld. It is a circus that can be described only by use of the most superlative adjectiyes in the dictionary. And then the half is not told.

TARIFF 4 MORAL ISSUE.
High Protection System Is Based on .
 Principle of Injustice.

High Protection System Is Based on . Principle of Injustice.
 Pick up any newspaper any day and you will find many accounts of thiev- cry and fraudulent transactions. What does it mean? Are the American peo- pie a nation of robbers? Is there something in our system of govern ment that tends to make men dtshOn
 est? Is the government itself in any way to blame for this apparent gener- al tendency to steal? Has not the eX- ample the government has set of en- riching the few at the expense of the many by means of the tariff been an influence for corruption?
 When men see great fortunes piled up by means of governmental favors, such as are contained in Schedule K of the Adrich-Payne law, whereby cer- tain favored woolen manufacturers are licensed to rob the people, and in the maintenance of the "No. 16 Dutch standard" brazenly maintained in spite of its exposure on the floor of the senate. by which the sugar trust is enabled to take its share of loot from the table of every man in this broad land-when they see high handed robbery not only countenanced but le- galized by the state it seems natural for them to say. "We want ours, too," and proceed to take it.
 Of course the government must draw the line somewhere. It wouldn't do to have everybody stealing every where. But the privilege to plunder granted to its favorites by the Aldrich- Payne law and the high tariff system has undoubtedly had a bad influence on the morals of the people. It's hard for the government to keep plundering within the limits it originally intend ed and 1t Is no great cause for wonder that John Smith. the cashier. loots the town bank when he sees Tom Jones, the president, who happens to be at the head of the woolen mill or the cot ton mill, footing the whole community.
 For all this the high tarttf system, which is based primarily on principle of injustice and wrong, is largely re- sponsible. So that the issue presented this year to the people of the country by the Payne-Aldrich bill Is a moral issue as well as material one and in- wolves the fundamental questions of. right and honesty upon which the mor al health and strength and life of the nation depend.-Baltimore Sun.
