PROTECTIVE TARIFF
 SYSTEM ATTACKED
MT. Redfield Says American Manufacturer Has Out
 grown Protective Plan

Washington, June 12-An attack ppou the proteciiyo tariff system by aa Amer ican manufacturar, who claims 10 have studied labor and manufacturing condi- tions in many countries, held the close attention of the House for two hours to- day. Representative William c. Red- field of Brooklyn, new democratic mem- Der, manufacturer Of machinery and long connected with export trade, declared to the House that American manufac- turers are abandoning the protective prin- ciple as unnecessary, as they develop more scientific management of their own plants as now carried ont in the more advanced American factories.
 "The protective tariff has simply en- abled the American manufacturers to sell at such high prices that they have not studied their own conditions closely. said MT. Redfeld They have relied on government support, rather than upon close business management. Its effect has been to stimulate the developments of plants until now they are so large that products must be sold abroad In this condition the manufacturers no longer want to pay tne high prices necessary for material under a protective tariff"
 Mir Redfield said that instead of for eign labor being cheaper, American labor is really the cheapest in the world; that no labor produced as much product in proportion to the wages it received, as American.
 Mr. Redfield attacked the republican principle of a tariff "equal to the differ ence in cost at home and abroad" saying it was impossible . to determine this diff ference. He said the American tariff board lis worthless unless empowered to call for the cost sheets of the factories en- studying"

JED's CHAT WITH THE
LITTLE FOLKS.

1t is very pleasing to Uncle Jed to
receive little letters of thanks for the
prize books sent out; and it teaches
the little folks to do business in the
correct way. So it is beneficial to
them as well as pleasing to us.
I think at the close of May We
shall have to stop these puzzles which
call for such hard work and cenfine
the competition to little letters of OBJ
servation and travel during the sum
mer. The children stroll in the pas
lures and woods, go to the seashore,
mountains OF country, and they can
write us Of the interesting things seen
in outings or on journeys.
Our little folks are all doing SPLEEN
did work and nothing is lost when they
strive to get the prize, for if they miss
the book they have entered the lists,
learned bit and are all the better
fitted to try again.
Uncle Jed will give two extra prizes
for little stories of grandpa in the
civil war for the last week in MAY.
All stories must be in hand by May

OUR LARGEST sATTLEsHIP.

II does not do to predict that the
superintendent represents the ex-
IRENE in naval design for sea fighting
and coast guarding; but we cannot sec
today how the dimensions of fighting
ships can be increased and at the same
time have their strength and power
keep in proportion to their advance.
comparison of the difference be-
tween the best bsttleship of twenty
years ago and the best of today
shows how they are made obsolete.
The largest warship ever construct
ed in this country was launched at
Camden, N ]. The development of
the size and strength of modern war
ships may be illustrated by compar-
ing the Arkansas with the Oregon. The
Oregon, which was laid down in 1891,
is 1o,2ss tons. carries four Inch and
eight s-inch guns in its main battery,
and has a speed of II knots Jan hour
The Arkansas is $4,000 tons. will have
twelve 12-inch and twenry-one o-lnch
guns in its main battery. and will have
a speed of 20 IL knots an hour. The
Arkansas and the wyoming. which
will soon be launched are sister ships.
The old Oregon, which played such
a. wonderful part in the Spanish war.
is nothing but toy compared with
these two ships which represent the
best achievement, in battleship design

Inlng, and to guard the sheep and to
serve man in a hundred different ways
This compact which was mutually
made. we must confess has been much
better honored by the dogs than by
men since civilization has nladez man
more secure and dogs less necessary
Some people do not know that there
was a time when the dog was more
serviceable in some respects than the
horse. 1t is a result of civilization
which put the dog in had odor.
Well, when Billy RowIegs had fin
ished his breakfast and got his jacket
pocket well filled with bread and meat
for thoughtless boys. YOU know. put
all kinds of things in their pockets, he
went out less merrily than usual and
with sharper eyes. He was afraid he
never would see Cur1ey again, but he
had not gone far before the dog came
bounding out of an alley-Way to meet
him, and he gave him food from his
pocket and Curley wagged his tail and
barked his thanks and the two friends
went down the street together Billy
wondering if he could ever get Mr.
Big Whis<ers TO let him call CurIey
his own and have him in the house all
of the time. And as it was vacation
time Billy did chores and played all
day. for he was SO happy to be with
Curley that he skipped his dinner and
he did not get home until night. That
was no occasion for surprise. for
street DoNS are NOT so particular about
coming to their meals as boys of or
derby and more thrifty families
BLK left Curley in the box and went
in to supper and was roundIy scolded
by Mr.. Big Wniskers for having that
cur with him, and was sent to bed
with the assurance that he and the
dog had parted company forever
which. of course, made it a fearful
night for. Billy.
.Curley heard the high words in the
house and knew they meant no good
! for him, and was wondering what to
do when another stray dog came into
the yard who, when he found CurIey
was hungry invited him to go the
rounds of the garbage barrels with
him and get a bite Of the good things
folks throw away The hunt was SC
successful that he decided to stay as
the dogs companion and to let the
, little boy go by himself.
When Big Wa1iskers went out that
night to make an end of Curley, he
was not there. and he went into the
house saying Curley was a wise dog
to go off when he was in danger OF
being carried off.

And cap of snowy white.
When all is still within the ward,
And evry light is low,
When night has ceme-that weary

That only pain can know.
She comes with soft and noiseless

With pity in her eyes,
To whisper words of comfort sweet,
TO Danish weary signs.
With noiseless step she moves away

An angel? Yes, in very truth,
An angel of the night.

LITTLE ORIGINAL STORIES.
Choosing a Queen of Flowers.

All tho flowers came together to
choose a Queen
First, the dandelion spoke: Il ought
to be queen. / bear the name of the
king of the forest.
Then the lily said: 81 think that a
gentle queen is better. I would be a
good one"
7 don't believe what you have said.
We want a queen that can look over
the other flowers" said the lilac. Z
You're SO high that you can't see
where 90 TO-" the runaway robin was
saying. Il can go long way and look
at my subjects
"Oh. you needn't hint at being
queen yourself I'd make a better
one" the colunbine said.
Flowers, are we not Gods subjects,
and isn't He the king and queen both !:
Hasn't He the power of life and death
over us ?" the rose observed. quietly.
What about man. the little bluet
asked.
Man is Gods assistant and I think
he is a. good ruler the rose answered.
The flowers quietly dispersed; and
for that wise speech sometimes the
flowers call Rose, aueen.-Sidney H.
