It has been pointed out by his
writings and lectures that Cover
nor Wilson has proved himself to
be an enemy of trades unionism.
Now let us take Governor Will
son and protection. Nothing has
contributed more to the high stand
ard of living of the American wage
workers and to the country's indus
trial greatness, than has protec-
ton. This is an undoubted fact
among intelligent and unbiased peo-
pie. Wilson is the enemy of protec-
ton: he is free trader and
theoretical one at that. This is
the very worst kind of free trad
er, for these theoretical opinions
are formed and developed far from
the practical affairs of life; formed
amid the environments of wealth
and aristocracy; formed minus any
thing like a practical knowledge
of the real operations of daily in
dustrial life and fctual business en-
terprise; formed merely by learn
ing human being alone and figur-
ing out abstractedly imaginary the
cries that utterly collapse when
brought in contact with the actual
facts. Such free trader is Will
son.
But, Governor Wilson himself,
completely kills his own free trade
argument and produces one of the
strongest reasons for protection to
American labor and industry we
have yet seen or heard. A short
time ago in a speech extolling free
trade and asserting that American
labor needed no protection against
foreign competition and that. with
out protection we could soon have
all the markets in the world for
our produce, he denounced protec-
tion,

Mr.. Harlan. But that is Just an
other bit of his posing. Time and
again l have asked him and others
have asked him whether he could
reconcile his multitude of unmeri-
torious and fraudulent contests for
delegate seats in the republican con
vention to the square deal about
which he prates SO constantly. In
stead of answering the question he
lodges and cries. Stop thief and

his cry to divert our attention from
his attempts to steal delegate seats

The gentle spirit of the Fall

The gentle spirit of the Fall
Will come to glorify the air.
And the football player will appall
The population with his hair.
The referee will climb the poles
And sound his shriu official

And the moth will drill a few more
holes
In everybody's Winter suit.
There is no glory to compare
with that awaiting just ahead,
when the gossamer gets in the
air, and the sassafrae is flaming
red. A million harps have duly
twanged upon the glories of the
time, but a poet still were rather
hanged than not intone his little
rhyme.
You may destroy his throbbing
Tyre and pitch him headlong In
the sea, but death alone can
quench the fire that underlies his
melody. He'll string a horse hair
on a pole, and even stronger than

THE MEUX MUMMY.
A Request to the British Museum and
the Curse That Goes With 1t.

Believers in the supernatural are
rather concerned in their minds at the
moment regarding Il mummy which is
included in the Assyrian and Egyptian
antiquities beIucnthrd to the British
museum by Lady MeuX. The mummy
is that of Neo- Alnsu, who died about
$3.50 years ago. but does not seem to
be able to rest comfortably unless he
is doing somebody Il bad turn. Neo
first came into the possession of the
late Walter Ingram. young brother of
the founder of the Illustrated London
News. who bought it while serving in
one of the Nile campaigns.
Owing to II misunderstanding Mr. In
gram did not pay the price the dealer
expected. and in his wrath he heaped
an ancient curse on Mr.. Migrants head
And when the mummy came home and
Mr.. Ingram presented it to Lady MeuX
WHO was then getting her collection
together, certain hierogyphics We're
found TO read thus:
EFF any person of any foreign coun

soevpr does this no offering shall be

shall never more breathe the air. no

their seed their name shall be rpmem
bered no longer upon earth and most
assurrdly they shall never see the
beams of the Disc" (the sun god.
CuriouSly enough, two years later
Mr.. Ingram WAS killed while elephant
shooting in SOnaliland. while in 1900
Sir Henry MeuX died childleSs. and his
baronetcy became extinct. another

fulfilled And now some people are

SHORT or ARMY OFFICERS.
Uncle Sam viii Give Young Men a
Chance to Win Commissions.

Only Il years ago the young man
who wan ed to obtain a commission
in the army without going through the
Military academy at West Point was
looked upon as prcsumptuous and hnd
pretty hard row to hoe even If he
succeeded in passing an examination
emitting him to appointment as sec
ond lieutenant All that is changed
The demand is greater now than the
supply. and Uncle Sam is going to
hold examinations at all the big army
posts on Sept. 8 in the hope Of sccur-
ing 200 young men who will pass ex-
aminatiOns that will warrant their ap
pointment as second lieutenantS.
The examination is open to all young
men between the ages of twenty-five
and twenty-seven. There are 200 va
cancies in the army. and the gradual
ing class of West Point is too small to
count much in filing vacancies In the
ranks of officers of the army az rapid
" rs they are created. The physical
and mental examinations will he rigid.
and in the latter college graduates will
have an advantage, although they are
given no preference.
The situation emphasizes both the

country to become professional sol
