SHAM PRoGREssIvENEss AND
THE GOLDEN RULE

Congressman Nye, of Minneapolis,
made great speech in congress the
other day in which he held up the
Golden Rule as the proper guide in
accomplishing legislative reforms. Tie
said:
Beware of the reformer who is a
candidate for Office, no matter who he
is. Self-denial? not until man is
ready to leave all for the truth, like
the disciples of old, is he any good as
a reformer or an advocate of real pro,
gress.
1T took divine genius to sweep
the money changers from the temple
and make His Fathers house a house
of prayer instead of den Of thieves
Man must be before he can do.
'sNow do not want to be misunder-
stood. I believe that, politically speak
ing, the movement so-called Progress.
sive is at heart right, but ] believe
there is so much of sham and fraud
accompanying it that we may as we'll
pause to know what is best for us to
do in this hour and age of the world.
At heart I believe it to be right The
great law Of Heaven is the law of pro
gress, but it is as silent and as noise
less AS the melting of the night into
the day.
ut is a growth-First the blade and
then the ear, and then the full corn in
the ear.
Vision "For the Brother Man"

lative body that love is the foundation

Of all remedies and all nostrums that
may be advocated, you will never
reach the true remedy until man shall
invoke in the halls of national and
state legislation the Golden Rule as

THE MAD RACE FOR A CHANGE

The wealth of this country has in
creased since the last Democratic Ia
riff, 1897, from ST., OOO,0O0,O00 to $107,.
O00,000,000. The money in circula.
ton doubled and bank clearings
trebled. Individual bank deposits
made three-fold increase. Farm
property has doubled in value, and
wage-earners are receiving billion
dollars year more than then. Not
withstanding all this phenomenal in
crease in prosperity, all brought about
by reasonable protective policy, we
expect to see the "peepul" kick the

wise.
e ovr the eaIa.. f Is Cur mercy
that built it.. We have tho right to
Icharge tolls for its use. These tolls
mist be tie Sane to everyone; but
when we are dealing with our own
ships, the practice of many Govern
nlents Of substituting their own mer-
chant vessels is so well established in
general that a subsidy equal to the
tolls, an equivalent remission of tolls,
can not be held to be a discrimination
in the use Of the canal
To us this statement and its con-
illusions seem irresistible, and that no
real answer can be made of it. The
Panama Canal is an extension of the
coast line of the United States. We
have the same right to grant its free
use to our own vessels as we have to
grant the same free use to them of
our harbors, lighthouses and rivers.
We do not allow Canadian vessels to
do a coastWise trade with United
States ports, nor do they allow our
vessels to do the same. The Canadi-
ans have not spent dollar in build
ing the canal, will not give a dollar
toward it's maintenance unless forced
to do so by tolls, and to give them the
free use of the canal for their coast
wise business is to give them an un-
due advantage over American vessels

THE PANAMA CANAL

The Canadians are beginning to see
some bitter fruits of their action to-
ward reciprocity. The near approach
of the completion of the Panama Ca,
nal has stirred the Canadian-Pacifc
railroads greatly as to the terms
which would be granted their ships
for the use Of the canal. The evident
intention of the United States to allow
its own ships to pass toll free while
eXacting toll from those of other
Nations would strike the Canadian
Pacific fleet very severely in their
competition with American vessels,
In fact, it would put them out of bust
ness Therefore, the British State De
partment sent note to us, the sub
stance Of which is thus given:
''The British government thinks
that to allow American vessels to pass
thru the canal without the payment
of toll would be to violate the Hay.
Pauncefote treaty, whether the tolls
are not collected or whether if col
1ected they are refunded.
AS to coastwise trade, the British
Government thinks it would be diff.
cult to frame provision which would
not do injustice to their interests"
This protest was based upon the fol
lowing clause in the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty:
s'The canal shall be free and open
to the vessels of commerce and .o1
war Of all Nations, observing these
rules on terms of entire equality, sc
that there shall be no discrimination
against any such Nation, or its citi
zens or subjects, in respect of the
conditions or charges of traffic, OF
otherwise. Such conditions and
charges of traffic shall be just and
equitable
President Taft's reply to this is Ger
tainly as concise and forcible pre-
sentation Of a truth as has ever ap
peared in state paper. It says al
that there is to be said in the fewest
possible words, and in way that does
not seem to admit of successful argu
ment. He says:
