The Tariff
" III o. A. Norton, noted political economist and pubcst

Inc very word tariff is of unsavor
ofism' 1t comes from the name Of tb,
town of Tarifa, on the straigbts O
IiDralter, a strategic point where /,
ancient times the predatory Moor
nelu up incoming and outgoing shin
ana levied tribute. In our dav N,
'arlir wall" has been used by tn,
PREDATORY Interests to hold up AMI
levy tribute on the American neonla
ne terlrt has been built up and per
petrated by the Republican part,
unuer the specious guise of protec
'ioh TO American industries. The
rooDery of the ultimate customer TO,
years has been carried on under the
cloak of protection.
For fifty years the American neo.
pie nave been enslaved and robbed
by the Interests under the false and
misleading belief that "the foreigner
pays the tariff tax; that without the
protective tariff business manufac-
turing would not prosper nor wages
oe sustained" All three of these argu.
ments are false in every essence. and
vicious in their application.
Ihese political jugglers will show
you now prosperous the country has
oeeh ana then assert that it is due
u Vhe protective tariff. They never
remind you of the great panics that
nave convulsed this country; they
never tell you of the hard times that
nave cursed the workingmen time and
aeain' They say that the working
men of this country are the highest
paid in the world because of the far.
III; that the farmer is prosperous and
thrlvlng because of the tariff. that
the business men have grown big be-
cause of the protective tariff These
lies have been so often and SO loud-
~ repeated that many people have
come to believe that there is some
truth in them.
Williams Jennings Bryan was once
interrupted in the course of a public
speech and asked: docs not the pro-
tectlve tariff enable manufacturers to
pay higher wages?" Mr.. Bryan re.
piled: Eyes it enables them to pay
higher wages, but it does not force
them to do so, and so they never have
done So"
The combination of free trade in
the labor market and the high pro-
tectiye tariff on manufactured goods,
is the ideal situation for the trusts
and corporations. It puts the dollar
above the man and enables the manu-
facturer to defraud both the laborer
and the consumer The American
worhngmen are the most efficient in

the world. Figuring their output
against the output of men In other
countries the American wage scale is
lower than that of England for in
stance.
The manufacturers have waxed fat
under the tariff which in its origi-
nal conception was designed to pro
tect industries" but they have not
divided fairly with the workingmen
who helped them grow.
Ihere are no infant industries now
that require protection The proof of
that statement lies in the fact that
the steel trust, the harvester trust,
the shoe trust and all the other trusts
including Standard Oil, are compel.
ing in the markets of the world and
IN many instances underselling the
products of England and Germany.
where we have been led to believe
wages are low. They add the tariff
to the legitimate profit of manufac-
ture in this country, but abroad they
are able to compete successfully with
countries where there is no tariff.
But one conclusion can be drawn
from this fact and that is that the
trusts do not need the protective tar |
iff and are "gouging" the American
people by so much as the difference
between the price they accept abroad
and the price they extort at home.
That the protective tariff" has
fostered trusts and monopoly which
now threaten our very national ex-
lstance' no one doubts who is honest
with himself. The dragons teeth of
our national dissolution are already
broadly and deeply sown, and as to
whether an awakened people can pre-
vent the logical harvest remains to
be demonstrated. Certainly this is
no world for pessimists and cutters.
One of the old parties has been ex.
by one great soul from out
he political slime of special inter
ests, and it is that party that should
receive the support of every sensible
nan of all parties, and thus turning
he tide of public affairs sharply
against the corrupt current that is
heading this nation toward the rocks

This inspiring deed was recently

gratitude of republics is again to be
'xemplified, this high-souled man.
Woodrow Wilson, will live to soon
lee the triumph at the polls of the
'ternal principles for which he has
'ver fought.
Whlle history does not necessarily
epeat itself, there is quite a strong
endency in that direction. To stem
his old tide that has caught and
hurled to utter obstruction all the
'arly democracies is by no means an
'asy task. In Woodrow Wilson the
PEOPLE have truly great and truly

CONSUL SHAKE-UP
NOT COMPLETED
Other Changes Nay Follow the
Resignation" Of Alfred
C. johnson.

The changes in the once Of the United
States consul general at Dresden. ~ .
result Of which Alfred c. johnson, for
meriy honorary vice consul at that place.
found that '.redgnation" he had never
sent in had bsen accepted. have not yet
come to an end. This u according to .
statement Of the Consular Service yester-
day. and II was said II was not known
now whether or not there would be any
change In the position OF T. et. John
Ga2fney. consul general It ID known.
however, that the shake-up has not end
Cd with the acceptance Of Mr.. Johnson's
resignation"
Mr.. johnson came to Washington sew
eral days ago to engage actively in the
campaign for Woodrow Wilson. and
when he called at the Offices OF the Con-
sular Service he was surprised to nnd
that his resignation had been accepted
by the department, and that James L. A.
Burrell, formerly vice consul at Magde-
burg and Lisbon. had been sent to Dres-
den to take his place as active vice con-
sui.
This was particularly surprising to Mr..
johnson. In the light OF the fact that
while he had contemplated resisning his
once before he started In the work of the
campaign. he had never communicated
this intention to the department In .
statement given out, Mr.. johnson
ascribed his being dropped from the de-
partment to diplomatic intrigue. "-and
showed papers concerning a misunder-
standing between himself and his chief
that dates back to 1906.
The explanation Of the department of
its action in receiving the resignation OF
the former vice consul was given yester-
day. While the department ofncials were
ioath to discuss the details Of the affair.
they said that. owing to certain condi-
lions found to exist in the Dresden con-
sulate. 1t had been felt best to make
some changes.
This was done by transferring one Of
the members Of the consular force to an
other post; by accepting Mr.. Johnson's
resignation" and by sending Mr.. Burrell
to Dresden.
