I'VE had a splendid trip but am glad to

was the response of Louis r Metz TO the
friends who greeted him yesterday on his
return from eleven months traNel III
Europe and the orient. He reached Omaha
at noon, was met by a delegation OF friends
at the Union depot and when he turned up
at the Henshaw last night he was hailed
by a salvo of eXclamations, How well you
look"
Mr.. Metz admitted he had never felt
better. although the tramping he had done
had reduced his avoirdupois. I'VE were not
the ordinary bunch Of tourists he ex-
planned, with guide book in hand and tol-

In the party was Colonel Tanning who
returned Saturday. and J. II. Mcdonald

way to keep. secure policy, q system
or a government that in itself is good
is to administer ii with justice and
wisdom. The only way to keep a party
solid and growing is to keel. 1t right
and progressive.
Theodore Roosevelt saw it when he
said at Logansport, Ind. in 1902:
What we really need in this country
is to treat the tariff as business
proposition from the standpoint of the
interests of the country as a whole and
not from the standpoint of the Tempo
rary needs Of any political party"
The People Understand.
The great masses of republican vot-
ers understand 1t today when they re-
fuse to permit the great doctrine of
protection to be used to excuse and
cloak tariff excess. Use a principle to
perpetuate a fraud. and the friend of
the principle thus misused is more Of
Tended than the enemy Of the principle
itself.
Like President Taft, I wanted free
iron ore. of which we have the great
est deposits on earth and which the
steel trust chiefly controls. On iron ore
no protection is needed and l would
not stand for the duty that was pro-
posed and passed; and I can not stand
for it now. But a majority of demo-
cratic senators did stand and fight for
it, and stand for it now.
Like President Taft I wanted free
lumber, out of which the homes of the
people are builded I could not stand
for the duty proposed and passed on
lu1p ber, and can not stand for 1t now
But democratic senators did stand and
fight for it, and stand for it now.
Like President Taft / wanted the
ancient woo1en schedule reduced-a
schedule forty-two years old, which, II
ever right, long since has served It's
purpose, and which now gives to the
wooden trust an unfair control of our
market; which Expresses the WOOL
grower, raises the price and reduces
the weight of the peoples clothing. /
stood against that schedule When we
tried to reduce it, when the bill was
passed, and am against it now.
I could not stand for an increase of
duties on cotton cloth, the higher
grades of which are used as clothing by
every man, woman and child. rich or
poor. tlrruout the whole republic
could not stand for that without evil
dence; and when the manufacturers
themselves formally declared before the
house committee that their business
was thriving, their labor employed and
that all they asked was that the tariff
on cotton should not be decreased. l
stood against those increases on cotton
goods when the schedule was voted on;
I stood against them when the bill was
passed; and I stand against them now
could not stand for an Increase on
structural steel. punched and ready for
use, out Of which all modern buildings
are constructed and with which bridges
all over the country are builded; and 1
can not stand for It now.
I could not stand for an increase of
duties on those 1inoleums which are the
poor mans carpet; or on zinc, which is
a universal necessity: or on silk, which
is a part the clothing or adornnient
of every American womarE rich or
poor; and can 7ok staisd fer them
