DEFINES PROTECTION THEORY
1T SHOULD IMPOSE REASONABLE
TARIFF AND ALLOW FOR FAIR
MARGIN OF PROFIT
CANADA NOW FACES A CRISIS
FREE TRADE ALL THAT WILL
SAVE THE DOMINION FROM
BEING ISOLATED COUNTRY

Springfield, Ills, Feb. 11.-Speak-
ing before the Illinois legislature
here today, President Taft vigorously
defended the proposed reciprocity
agreement with Canada as the log
ical conclusion of the protection plank
in the last republican national plat
form" He defined the protection
theory as one that should impose a
tariff not exceeding the difference in
the cost of production in this country
and abroad and allowing fair mar
gin of profit for the home producer.
The president repeated his argu
ments that reciprocity would not re-
suit in the reduction of the price OF
land in the United States, or OF low
ering the prices that farmers receive
for their products.
mo better STEP continued the
president, could be taken in the in
tereSI OF more reaSoHdDlS pOhCy /
Of protection than the approval of the
.reaty." He said that insistence on
100 much protection would reduce 4
an opposition in this country that
would know no moderation. He
further declared that was his reason,
also, for favoring the creation Of an
expert tariff commission or board.
Canada is at the parting of the
ways" said President Taft. Shall
she be an insulated country, as much
separated from us as if she were
across the ocean, or shall her people
and our people profit by the proxim-
ity that our geography furnishes and
stimulate trade across the border
that nothing but a useless, illogical
and unnecessary tariff bill now pre-
vents?"

What 1t Cost

Probably about December 15, there will be a hearing in Wran- gell which will determine the amount of compensation to which the firm of Whitfields are entitled for surveying the town site of that thriving village.
 For many years the contest has been pending in the United States land office. The Whit fields made a claim for S11, 1,000 for their service in running the lines which transferred Wrangel from a steamer landing into a city. The Wrangell lot holders have strenuously resisted the taxing against them of this sum, and have contended that $2,000 would be much nearer the right figure. A year or two ago, the matter was heard by a special investigator sent out by the gen. eral land office. and this official recommended the sum of S3,000 as full pay for the engineers. The engineers took the matter up before the commissioner of the general land office. and that official proposed a compromise of S5, ,000. The figure was regarded as far two low by the surveyors, and their motion for a re- hearing has been granted. Special Agent Lewis will attend the hearing, and probably take a notary with him from Juneau, as both the commissioner and notary at Wrangel are witnesses in the case. -Sourdough.
