ito kill them painlessly and end the

DOOM OF PROTECTION
TRUSTS NO LONGER TO BE Al.
LOWED TO PLUMBER.
Reign Of Sanity Seems About to Be
Restored, and Consumers Will
Proflt-Temple Of the "lnter.
ests" 10 Falling.

In adopting reciprocity by vote Of
fifty.three to twenty-seven, the senate
completed the first successful assault
upon the citadel of protection. The
fight against the high tariff Is most
auspiciously begun.
The protective tariff system has al
ways been kind of giye-an-take prop
osition, due to an agreement among
the privileged interests to maintain
the status quo. The interests are no
longer able to maintain "the balance
of power" Plutocracy's plunderbund
is broken. Babylon is fallen. The
walls Of Jericho are cast down. Cana
dian reciprocity has sounded the death
knell Of the protective tariff system In
the United States.
when reciprocity passes" declared
Senator Dixon of Montana, the other
day, II am ready to start revising the
tariff, and 1t will not be confined to
the wool schedule and the farmers
free list" This from high priest OF
protection. He continued: Il am
ready to take the whole thing from
A to z, and, SO far as am con-
cerned, I am ready to give 1t re-
vision that will not be homeopathic
one"
Let one Of the pet interests suffer
and 1t will demand vengeance against
all the rest. The interests whose PRIV
ileges are destroyed by limited free
trade with Canada will see that other
protected interests suffer for their fall
ure to come to the rescue. If can
not rob your neighbor, you shall not
rob mine" That is the prevailing
sentiment now, as 1t has always been.
The protective tariff system was never
anything but an armed neutrality
which maintained tariff schedules IN
obedience to the dictates of various
local interests. Nobody ever was or
will be willing to submit to taxation
for the benefit OF somebody else. He
must have his quid pro quo. The
protective tariff advocate was never
sincere. He was willing to authorize
tariff spoliation only because he could
share the proceeds of the robbery.
The spell is now broken. Harmony
is gone. The wedge has entered. The
cancels nose is in the tent and the
whole body will follow. Canadian rec
iprocity Is the beginning of the end
for the high-tariff system.-St. Louis

revised tariffs should be biased on
