and that the opposition OF the Demo-
cratic party to this principle Is radically
unsound and vicious. But we also hold
that the methods Of realizing that prin-
cipie under the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill
were fairly unsound andIimproper. We
believe that this country 10 definitely
committed to the policy Of protection.
nitely committed against the abuse and
misuse Of protection. We propose TO give
the American producers tariff high
enough to secure them our home mar
ket so long as they make honest goods
which shall not be SO high asst protect
manufacturers who make shoddy goods
and sell them for dishonest prices. and
we propose that under any tariff i'm
enough shall get Into tho pay envelope
to see that the American workingmen
receive wages high enough to enable
them to live as American citizeps ought
to live. ..'

The Case Summed Up. ...s
Since It became evident that the
Progressives were definitely bent on ad-
vocating a commission to handle the
tarifr and a commission to handle the
great industrial concerns Mr.. Wilson
has ranked himself with the other re-
dictionaries against both proposals. But
as late as January II. 1911, In his In.
ausural message as governor Of New
Jersey, he took the strongest possible
ground In favor Of public utilities
commission, advocating Il in language
which exactly and precisely applies to
and our proposed Industrial commission.
At that time, OF course, Mr.. Wilson
was hailed as the hope OF the Pro-
Rressives. At present his sole chance Of
success lies In the support of the re-
actionaries. and he has reversed his po-
sition.
