CLAPTRAP BY
UNDERWOOD
Tariff Duties Not Paid by Users
Of American Goods.
HIS ADDRESS SHOULD Be READ

Workers VIII Recognize His Distortion
Of Figures and Facts and VIII Not
Be Beguiled by It-Shows How
Hard Pushed the Democrats Are
For an Argument.
1t is to be hoped that every Amer
lean worker in the various industries
protected by the tariff will read the
address of Mr.. Underwood. Demo.
critic leader of the house of repre-
sentatives. in which he sets forth as
taxation the tariff duties on articles in
ordinary use. There is nothing novel
in the Underwood distortion of tariff
figures and facts 1t is as threadbare
Dc free trade. as threadbare as the
american workingman would soon be
II he should allow himself to be be-
Bviled by Underwood and other vo-
taries of the late Confederate consti-
tuition into the surrender of Repub-
Gcan protection.
1t is true, as Underwood says, that
The tariff taxes he describes are i'm
posed on articles such as he describes
--woolen clothing, shoes, the tin pail,
window pane. carpet, etc, but he is
wholly and deliberately wrong and
misleading when he says that the du-
ties in question are imposed on or
added to the cost of these articles, as
used in the ordinary American family.
The tariff tax is imposed on goods
manufactured abroad and imported
for sale in competition with goods
made in America by American work
ers earning American wages.
The man or woman whoiis satisfied
with the product Of American labor
and nine-tenths of the American peo-
pie are so satished-has no tariff tax
to pay, and this is shown by the fact
that the American article, with its
manufacture fostered by protection, is
often cheaper in price than the inn
ported would be without paying tariff
duties
The tariff duties prevent excessive
imports, which would food the mar
kets, as imported goods flooded the
market under the tariff reductions
made by the Democratic Wilson bill
of 1894, reducing not only the tariff,
but reducing also the demand for
American goods and for American
labor to make. American goods.
Mr.. Underwood's statement is cheap
claptrap. We had supposed that style
of talk too muddy and cobwebbed for
further exercise, and the fact that it
is again dragged out of the discard
proves how hard pushed the free
trade Democracy is for something to
bolster its waning cause.

FORESEE An ERA
OF PROSPERITY
julius krutts ;hnitt and Otto
Kahn Tell OF Increased Bust
ness Everywhere.
OTHERS ECHO SENTIMENT
Politics Introduces the Only Element
of Uncertainty.

From the New York Sun, Sept, IL.
1912:
Prosperity for the United States and
its insular possessions was predicted
by many returning passengers on the
Kronprinz Wilhelm of the North Ger
man Lloyd line. Among the most op-
timistic was julius Kruttschnitt, vice
president of the Hartman railroad
lines.
Mr.. Kruttschnitt bases his roseate
predictions on the reports he received
through the newspapers and from the
officials of the Hartman system. He
thinks that the prosperity wave will
extend throughout the country.
Among those who are confidently
looking for good times is Otto Kahn Of
the firm of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., who
sailed for Europe on the Mauritania
this morning. In discussing business
conditions throughout the country Mr..
Kahn declared the big crops of this
year indicated revival Of prosperity
and increased business.
But Mr.. Kahn was careful to point
out that there was danger to business
from politics and unsettling legisla-
ton. He said in part:
when any one tells you, as many
are saying, that the business revival
is going on regardless of politics, you
can laugh at him." he said. ut will
not 1t is true that the country is all
ready for the great prosperity. The
crops are wonderful, the greatest we
have seen. Business is running smooth
ly. Factories are operating at full
capacity, labor is well employed. The
outlook is good. But business will
not cut loose into any great boom.
Politics is one big factor. Wilson
is an uncertainty He has been CIV
ing us great deal of loose talk late
ly on one thing, concerning the inabil-
ity of American business men and
bankers to handle their business. Pres
idents cannot afford to indulge in
loose talk"

FAIRNESS TOWARD NEGROES
Taft's Attorney General Stands for
the "Souare Deal"

Attorney General Wickersham re-
fleets the broad American spirit of
himself and his chief, President Taft,
in his splendid fight against the
dropping from membership in the
American Bar Association of his able
colored assistant, William H. Lewis.
1t is needless to say that every sup
porter of Woodrow Wilson and every
sympathizer with Theodore Roosevelt
lin his refusal to recognize the citi-
Ixenship of the southern negro, is op-
posed to Mr.. Wickersham in his bat
HE for equal rights and fair treatment
for colored Americans.
The action of the executive COM
mittee of the Bar association in revok-
ing the election of three colored MEM
bers, gentlemen of spotless profess
sional standing and excellent personal
character, by their local committees,
was outrageously, cruelty unjust and
ought to be repudiated by every rep
utable lawyer in the United States.
1t was a concession to that southern
Democratic prejudice which seeks to
crush the spirit of manly aspiration
in the negro's breast and to tolerate
him only as laborer on the planta-
tons and for the households where
his ancestors were slaves. 1t amounts
to an attempt to nullify the consti-
tuition Of the United States, az
amended after the rebellion, by men
whose sacred obligation and welcome
duty it should be to support that in
strument in their every act as lawyers
and as citizens.
In their resolute backing of Assist
ant Attorney General Lewis against
The assaults of rank Bourbonism and
racial prejudice, President Taft and
his attorney general have the god
speed OF every American who believes
in the principles for which Lincoln
died, and who is determined that the
sacrifices which the nation offered up
on the altar of freedom and equal
rights for all shall not have been
made in vain.

 A great number of suitors had already gathered in the palace of the duke early as 1t was when the doctor called, and were waiting anxiously for an interview with the great man, while the minister held serious conference with a costumer concerning a dress his duchess was to wear at a coming fancy ball.
 But Jenkins did not wait-that em- inent parsonage, had the right of the entre at all times, and, with head erect and an air of authority, went up the official steps over which so many trem- bling ambitions, so many stumbling anx ieties passed every day.

 Jenkins pretended to listen to the minister's heart, felt his pulse and did a few other little doctors tricks. The duke asked him who it was-that great bronzed savage who he had seen hn with at the opera the night before

 Born in a peddler's stall at Bourg- Saint-Andee In the south of France, lansoulet had struggled through ir- fancy, boyhood and youth amid unger, cold and poverty of the dirast sort. He had lain abed whole days for want cf covering to cover his naIedncss. lucky when he had bed sometimes. He had felt that hunger which supplies the head and twists the vitals He had tried trade after trade as he got older t. make his bread, but in everything was failure.
