WILSON To DENOUNCE
PROTECTIVE TARIFF
First UtteranCe on Platform
Expected to Hinge on tariff
for Revenue Only"
FREE TRADE IN FUTURE
Still at Sea, Physically, but
Friends Quote Recent Speech
Speaker Clark Said To
Be Doomed to Retire.
lBy Telegraph 10 The Tribune. ]

Sea Grit, y. j., July 2S.-Althougn
Governor Wilson is still somewhere on
The high seas with his speech of ac-
ceptance securely tucked away, 1t was
learned tonight that the greater part
Of the address he will deliver here On
August Z would be devoted to a de-
nunciation of the protective tariff oo!-
icy of the Republicans. This, he will
hold, is the basic cause of the high cost
Of living.
Governor Wilson, according to a per-
son In close touch with his views, will
not treat the tariff as a political cues
ton, but rather as an economic propo-
sition removed from the field of poll
tics. He will not point out any specific
instances TO support his contention that
The protective tariff is at the root Of
the increase in the cost Of living. but
will depend principally on general
statements, the majority of which Will
be more or less theoretical.
There is one thing, however. that the
Governor intends 10 make clear. and
that is that the fundamental principle
Of the Democratic party is tariff for
revenue only, and he will express the
hope that a generation or two will see
absolute free trade in force in this
country.
Governor Wilson. it is said, will In
sist that the tariff must be taken out
Of politics and that It Is up to bust
ness men 70 bring this about. He viii
hold that il is not the politicians who
have placed the tariff in politics. but
the business men themselves. In this
respect it is said 10 be probable that he
will urge that the entire subject be
placed in the hands of commission.
The Governor will be unmerciful it
is understood. in his attack on the pro-
tective tariff. which, he will hold. Is re-
sponsible for the formation of the big
corporations. He will also blame the
tariff for the decline Of our merchant
marine.

Politicians and Business.

Why has the Republican party
habitually been associated with the
policy Of high tariff" he will ask. and
then he will answer by charging that
the bills of the Republican party have
been paid by the business men of this
country.
He will sum up his feelings along this
line Of thought by saying that the man
ufacturers go down TO Washington and
demand a high tariff. asking the legis-
lators. If they do not receive it. to
whom will they look for their campaign
expenses.
According 10 this close friend Of Gov
ernor Wilson, his conception of the
tariff, as outlined in his speech of ac-
ceptance, may safely be summed Up
in the following extract of a speech he
delivered recently:
The worst feature Of protection is the
Generalization Of our political ideas. We
have based government upon patronage
and privilege instead of upon Justice and
equality. That's the cancer that eats at
the hearts OF ell.
We going TO turn revolutiOnists? Are we
going 10 act as free traGeIs! l wish 7
might hope that orr grandchildren could
indulge in free trade. but i am afraid
even they cannot, because they have to
pay the bills OF the federal government
We have a federal system of govern
ment, and II rs wise, IL is good house
keeping, II is GOOD management to leave
direct taxes for the most part TO the
state government. because they have cur
rent bills to pay. 1t is likely that for an
indefinite period we snail have TO pay
our national bills by duties collected at
the ports.
Though l am not for drastic changes,
yet / wish l saw some ultimate escape
from 1t. At present / do not Therefore,
what we have to ask ourselves is not the
principle upon which we are TO act, for
that Is plain. We are 10 act upon the
Fundamental principle of the Democratic
party, not free trade, but tariff Tor rev.
enue, and we have got TO approach that
by such avenues. by such stages and at
such a pace as will be consistent with the
stability and safety Of the business of the
country.

night, aboard a private yacht, putting
the finishing touches 10 his speech Of
acceptance of the Presidential nomina-
ton.

Napoleon and His Tutor.

Napoleon was great soldier. but he
could not spell. His handwriting was
also so bad as to give rise to the rumor
that he used undecipherable characters
to conceal the fact that he. the master
of Europe, could not master French or
biography. In the early days of the
empire a man of modest aspect pre-
sented himself before the emperor.
"Who are you?' asked Napoleon.
Sire. l had the honor at Brienne for
fifteen months to give writing lessons
to your majesty"
You turned out a nice pupil" said
the emperor. with vivacity. Il con-
graduate you on your success" Never
theless he conferred a pension upon his
old master.

ty This result was achieved, they say,
because of the organization got out

They assert that the charges of re

mittee, headed by Hugg, investigated
assertions that 200 Illegal voters were
sent to the polls in the tenth city ward.
The committee found that the Roose-
Welt men making the assertion could
name none of the ''repeaters" said to
have been used. Therefore the con-
test was dropped.
There are also a number OF affidav-

cific charges particularly those of
manipulation.

RooseveItian Charges.

RooseveItian Charges.
According to the Roosevelt men the
Taft forces decided to make the pri-
mary one of the soap box brand.
There is an optional primary law
over party organization in Indiana.
The optional part allows the machine
men who have the say to decide not to
hold the election under the law. To
choose these delegates they decided to
hold a primary under their own rules
and regulations.
Under these rules the county chair
man, Harry Wallace, named the cleo
ton boards. Roosevelt men say they
were excluded from any representa-
ton. They were not allowed to have
watchers at the polls nor at the count.
The Australian ballot was tabooed and
the old fashioned ballot prepared out
side and handed the voters was sub
stituted.
Under these rules the Roosevelt
men assert in their affidavits filed
with the national committee the ma
chine proceeded to hold the election in
its own way. Several auto truck loads
of negroes, some 200 in all, it is assert
ed, were driven from one polling
place to another and voted for the
Taft delegates. In some places ballots,
it is, asserted, had to be handed in
through a window. The voter did not
see them dropped into the ballot box
es. 1t is alleged that the ''repeaters"
handed in several ballots folded to-
gether.
The methods of counting were uni
que. according to the Roosevelt fac
ton. In one ward, it is asserted, per-
sons who watched through a window
saw the clerks check off the vote on
the tally sheets. After they were
through the ballots We're taken from
the boxes and burned. The boxes were
not opened before the tally sheets
were completed.
Taft Mems Denial.
The answer of tie Taft men is a
general denial They admit that I'M
der a primary governed by the rules
the committe adopted there was some
| chance for fraud. Recognizing this,
they say, they followed a custom as
old as the party primary in Indiana. A
contest committee was appointed to
hear any charges brought after the
voting. This was done, it is asserted,
in order to give the contestants more
complete hearing than any convention
credentials committee could do. Martin
-, Hugg, law partner of Joseph B. Keal-
/ ing, head of the Taft vigilant commit
| tee was chairman of this committee.
The brief filed by the Taft men as
serts that while there was some fraud
which they themselves endeavored to
discover and counterfeit the cause
should go against the Roosevelt men

! returns. Roosevelt received 1,4S0 and
