CALIFORNIA AND PROTECTION

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: With lemons paying duty OF che
cent pound. the Sicilan lemon is prac-
ucally holding the New York market by
the throat.
Suppose that California oranges and
lemons were not protected BY any taTiH;
how would they get into any market east
OF the Missouri River in the face or this
italian competition?
The fruit from the Mediterranean Is
produced al a low figure. Il can be laid
down I'm New York, with cheap ocean
frelghts. for less than the California
grower pays to get his fruit into the
packing house. After paying the duty
and getting rebates for rotten fruit
the importer is satisfied with n small
profit. but In times Ike these with the
East furnishing for cooling drinks and
the hospitals anxious for fresh lemons,
the importer not infrequenly sees
chance to rush IN cargoes from Sicily
and break the lemon market 50 effect
ualy that tho California fruit interests
will be shy II trying 10 unload on q
glutted market. then the importer, hay-
.ng the field 10 himself let's the supply
fan OF and the price bounds up. II is
thus that the Eastern market Is manlpu-
lated Tor the benefit OF the importer. Be
fore the tariff was raised II was even
easier Tor the importer. but now the
competition Of the California growers
helps TO keep the market level and pro-
tects the public from tho exactlons OF the
dealer iu foreign fruit.
California is dependent on the tariff FOR
tho life OF many OF It's unique Industries.
rs Il likely. Mr.. Editor. that she viii vote

this protection. +. j. ID.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
"THE BULL MOOSE PARTY"

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: would desire to know from your
readers I'm reply. from few, on what
hope do the advocates of the Bull Moose
etc" party base their excuse for oppos-
ing the regular Republicans? II is known
before TAFT was nominated that the peo-
pie who accused others Of fraud at some
state primaries have convicted them
selves within so-called "Progresslves' as
doing II for effect TO carry influence for
Roosevelt I'm the other state primaries,
and those who sided with Roosevelts
theories have been called Traitors to the
people" or to Roosevelt by rejecting that
CONVENTIONAL fraud for physiological ell
feet and went over to Taft. This accusa-
ton of fraud against Taft may be an
other effect to boost a bluff that the
people wants Roosevelt for Bird term
on the unwrltten law without respect 10
some OF our Presidents being satisfied
with 2 terms. In this coming Champagne
TO sides are determined - exterminate
the other in spite OF faults within the
faction OF the Republicans.
II the Roosevelt people cause the de-
feat OF the Republican party on wrong
charges against the Republican convon-
ton. then that wrong" VIII be consid-
cred treacherous with the Roosevelt peo-
pie If the Democrats win.
Remember If Taft looscs it will not be
tho Republican party's fault, If the words
.'Treacherous accusation" by the Roose-
welt people cause IT,

SHIP STRANDS WITH
 EXCURS|ON|STS
Nearly 300 Spend Night in Middle of Hudson After
 Eventful Day

Tarrytown, N. Y.. July N.-Nearly 800 picnic excursionists from the First and Second Reformed churches of this city spent the night in the middle of the Hudson river on board the steamer Isa- bel, stranded near the Tarrytown light house on a bar. Many of tbe passengers were women and children, for whom the night was anything but a pleasant one.
 The stranding of the excursion boat was the climax of series of misfor- tunes which befell the picnic party. When the excursonists assembled at the pier yesterday morning the boat which they had chartered was nowhere in sight After long delay it was located in Brooklyn, where the captain had gone by mistake. It was afternoon when hs got back to Tarrytown. and in the mean while the excursionists had been spend- ing their time as best they could on the dock, where a series of coal barges was being unloaded Dust from the coal was blown over the white dresses of the women and children and they were any thing but spotless when they boarded the boat
 When lat last they reached their desti- nation, picnic grove down the river, they found that a negro excursion had taken possession of it, and they were compelled to put about and try another resort few miles away They re- mained there only about an hour, when the start was made for home. Launches and tugs were sent out to the Isabel at daybreak to take off the passengers.

EXCLUSIVELY WHOLESALE.

you just said that 1t was a five gallon gum.' and he replied, By gosh bees are the outpackiest things you ever seen in this world (Laughter)
 'So, MT. Speaker, we have these slick fingered artists of the exchange treating us to a genuine cotton miracle. Nobody but an exchange member could sell 90, 000,000 bales of cotton out of a 10,000,000 crop. Daughter and applause) It takes the cotton producer of the south l2 months to make a cotton crop of 12,000, coo bales, but these gentlemen on the ex- change can, in few nights with a few chalk marks, make 500,000,000 bales (Ap plause) We have this mysterious and miraculous cotton in competition with actual cotton. One of the gentlemen in the hearings, Mir. Patteson of Memphis said that he dealt in manufactured feed stuff. When asked to whom he sold he said to everybody, from the man who wants one bushel to the man who wants 50 carloads. I then asked him who fixed the price of his produce, and he answered that he fixed the price himself. And yet, gentlemen say, Who will fix the price for the cotton producer if the exchange does not? The cotton producer is denied now the right to say anything about what the price of his cotton shall be. If you take his cotton out of competition with this fictitious stuff, he will have a voice like the wool grower has in fixing the price of wool, he will have a voice like the hay grower has in fixing the price of hay. As I have said here before, hay and wool have no exchange to fix the price of hay and wool. Why should the cotton producers of the south be com pelled to submit to the evils of a gam bling exchange? All that I ask at the hands of this House. and I ask it in the name of the cotton producers them selves, in an open market, where real cotton is bought and sold and real cot ton is delivered on contracts" (Ap- plause)
 Representative Heflin closed the debate in favor of the bill and it was then passed by an overwhelming vote.
