FAIR PLAY.

Fairness and common sense have
triumphed In Pennsylvania over legal
feehnicalities, and the Roosevelt and
Jahnson candidates for elector on the
sReplblican ticket have given up their
sIfaees to substitutes loyal to the Re
publican national nominees. The sub
Etitltion has been long delayed and
would probably never have come about
ffsfhe title Of the original electoral
nominees had been attacked in the
courts. So long as the issue was left
cue; Of mere decency and morals the
settlement reached yesterday at Har-
Tlsburg was inevitable. Public opinion
eendemned the attempt Of set OF
candidates TO run on one party ticket
with the intention, If elected, Of voting
for the Presidential and Vice-Presi-
dental nominees Of another party.
That sort Of political larceny was I'M
popuiar with the voters Of all parties
sin Pennsylvania.
Now that there is straight Taft
and Sherman electoral ticket In the
6eid Republican success in Pennsyl-
yania becomes highly probable. Thou
sands of Republicans would not have
voted for the hybrid collection OF
electors originally named. The straight
cfiing ont Of party lines will stimulate
activity on behalf Of Taft and Sher-
nan. They stand for policies which
have had Pennsylvania's approval for
,niore than fifty years. The protection
Of domestic industry has helped large
ly to give the state its prominence In
The field OF industry. The voters there
Know that Governor Wilson is talking
fSibbIsh when he says that protection
ms done nothing for them or for any
A,sdy else. Even the Democratic party
In Pennsylvania has been and is now
largely protectionist in sentiment.
The best way TO maintain the protec-
tive system in its integrity, although
euualizing its application and remit
ting excessive duties, Is 10 keep the
Republican party In power In the ma
lion. II that party is weakened and
driven from control at Washington

unreasonable raids on the protective
schedules. Even II Colonel Roosevelt

A REVIEW OF FACTS
Measurements Made by Wilson and
Sulzer Pointed Out.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Mr.. Sulzer, the Democratic cam
didate for Governor. Is circulating as
campaign document copies OF speech Oh
his printed in THE Congressional Record
of August on the tariff He is strenu'
Gus free trader, and. like Mr.. WILSON, not
above making misstatements on the SUD
feet. Mr. Sulzer repeats the statement
made so frequently In this canvass by MI
Wilson that "the Republicans promiseh
that they would revise the tarin down.
ward. but they have not done So addihs !.
"'The Payne-Aldrich law is q revision OF
the tariff upward it is the highest pro-
lection measure ever placed on our statute
books; It increases the taxes on almost
every necessary OF life" and much more
TO the same purpose.
II is surprising that Democratic candi-
dates for the Presidency and the Gov
ernorship should make such unfouhdeu
statements. There was not word IN the
Republican national platform OF 1913
promising to revise the tariff downward
but It was revised downward to very
material extent The average rate OF duty
on all imports in 1908 was 23.sS per cent
while for 1912 It is 1882 per cent. Only
444s per cent Of the imports were free OF
duty in 1908, while 1898 per cent were
free of duty in the fiscal year OF 1872.
But prices have gone up. showing the
falsity OF charging the increase in prices
10 the tariff. Mr.. Suffers assertion that
the tariff was increased on almost every
necessary OF life" Is something worse tnan
buncombe. In a speech on March o.
1909. nearly I'VE months after the Presl-
DENTAL canvass OF 1908. Mr. sulzer said :
The Republicans tell US that they VIII
revise the tariff schedules OF the Dinghy
law. but they do not tell Us whether they
will revise the tariff up or down" and yet
both Mr.. Wilson and Mr.. Sulzer and near
ly every other Democratic speaker IN this
canvass continue falsely 20 assert that
the Republicans promised TO revise the
tariff downward. while they have revised
II upward"
Is II not about time 10 stop that mon
strous falsehood? Imports for the last
fiscal year were s47o.23+,2es greater than
in 1905. That alone tells the story OF
tariff reduction. u H. D.

Inflated battleship Maine In Havana Har-
Dor, thus getting the remains Of our poor
Americans who lost their lives in that
wreck. who think. should not have re-

lieved that Mr.. Sulzer has brought 1t
about, and satisfied that that sorry spec
tacle has been buried out OF sight by the
hands OF Americans themselves. He has
the strong love OF liberty OF his father In

spirit among Americans. Therefore he

AS TO ORATOR PUFF.

Governor Wilson's tariff speeches
have so mystified his old-fashioned
anti protectionist, tariff-smashing sup
porters in this city that they have lost
all zest for proclaiming victory for
him as a guarantee of the abatement
of ywhat they have denounced for a
celebration as the horrors" OF protec-
ton. THE New York Evening Post
has filled thousands of columns trying
to demonstrate the folly Of levying
protective duties of any sort. Yet its
loyalty to Governor Wilson has led II
into emphasizing the extreme mildness
OF his downward revision programme
and to defend him against charges
that he is likely to live up TO the his
toric Democratic doctrine that all
duties laid for protective purposes are
unconstitutional and ought to be abol-
ished.
Now comes 1.-THE New York Times
an ancient disciple of Mill and Cob
den and long a redoubtable co-warrlor
with Mills, Morrison, Hurd, the star
Eyed Goddess, the New York Tarin
Reform Club and the Southern school
of2free traders, and says that the
Wilson fight against tariff extortion'
is. as the sporting fraternity put it,
only "stalr' and that Wilson adj
ministration would lie down as peace
fully with the protective system as
ever a lion and a lamb lay down TO-
gether. Does anybody talk about
Democratic President and a Demo
Ncratic Congress tampering with the
Vprotective basis to which business and
industry have been adjusted in this
country? He is talking nonsense, says
'The Times" which makes this paci-
flying prophecy:
The actual risk in the victory OF
the Democrats, 50 far as concerns the
tariff. is that the reduction that Will
follow will not be substantial. will not
meet the needs of the consumers, and
will not open UP such extension of for
eign markets as our industries, with
their steadily growing power or pro-
duation, demand.
vi course, suCll d piOphCNS NoiiAON ~
karmonized with Governor Wilson's
every other day statement that the
protective system is a handicap on
american industry and progress and
positively Injuries everybody supposed
to be benefcially affected by it. 1t
Blay be that the public generally ought
70 attach as little credit to the Demo-
cratic candidates down-with-the-tariff
ntterances as 1.-The Times" attaches to
theap when it treats Governor Wilson

THE SOUTH AND THE TARIFF
Why Does It Want Free Trade When
Protection Has Brought Prosperity?

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: see by the press that the Demo-
cratic candidate for President Is to have
the ablest men In his party TO come into
New Jersey to advocate especially free
trade. Among them are Mr.. Underwood
OF Alabama; Speaker Champ Clark. OF
Missouri, and others. When they get
into New Jersey think they ought 10
answer the following questions:
/. The South. having control of the fed
eral government previous TO the civil
War, had shaped its finances and dictated
the political economy as manifested by
the Golden theory. which was to sell what
they could raise and buy where they
could buy the cheapest. or, In other words.

same time the South was rich In re-
sources TO make a nation wealthy and
strong and under the protective policy or
the federal government those same states
are now in a position OF independence
and II placed under the same circum-
| stances as they were during the war
| would have every comfort that people
II
could desire, except the lack OF tropical
products. II the policy Of tariff for rev.
enue only" produces such results as man
lfested In the South. why do they want
to abandon the policy OF protection. which
has enabled the South to develop It's re-
sources and make the people rich and
prosperous?
