THE WOODROW WILSON BREAK

The correspondence between Senator
Iillman Of South Carolina and Col
Watterson, serves TO develop the fact
that the purpose OF the conference be
tween Wsttcrsou, Governor Wilson.
and Col. Harvey, al which the break
between Harvey and Wilson occurred.
Tas financial. Ii WAS called for the
purpose of giving Col Wattcrson an
opportunity TO present his plan for
financing Governor Wilson 5 Presidcn-
tial campaign. 1t appears that Col.
Wattcrson Was anxious to obtain the
assistance of Mr.. Ryan. Virginian
and a Wall street pIutocrat, to carry,
or help TO carry, the expenses Of the
Wilson campa gn for the Presidency.
So far ms developed, there is nothing
definite as TO Ryan s attitude toward
this propositions; but ut least the infer.
ence is fair that the idea of his TAX
ing hold of the financial part Of the
campaign was not hopeless lie must
have given Col. Watterson some en-
coursgcment in the idea that he would
respond, or else Wattersou would harl-
" have thought it worth while 10 pre-.
sent the matter at all.
This is an interesting development
Of the Wilson candidacy. We assume
that Go~rrnor Wilson must have
known the purpose of the meeting, aud
must have been willing. al least ten
tatisely, 10 consider the proposition of
baving his campaign fiusueed by Mr.
Ryan. il is noteworthy also. that the
disagreement at that meeting did not
arise over anv financing proposition,
but solely over the proposition OF the
injury TO the Wilson candidacy that
was inflicted by Col, Harvcy's support
of Wilson in Harper's Weekly ii the
disagreement, or quarrel, or whatever
IL may be called bad arisen by reason
of Governor Wilson s resentment AT
the idea OF bsving his campaign
financed by the great plutocrat. Mr.
RYAN, then Wilson could have obtaiued
some credit aud popular applause for
such resentment. Nothing OF the kind
appears. however. in the correspond
ence. or 10 anything that has arisen
in connection with this matter. The
financing OF hi. eanpaisn by Mr.
RYAN Was not apparently rejected by
Governor Wilson. Bat. lie did object
TO Col. Haryey's support in Harper 5
Weekly, on the ground that the Weekly
represents certain interests that vii.
son eould not affiliate With, and tho
predominance of those interests and
their support was injurious before the
people. The fact that these interests
are, IN some degree at least. the same
as the BvRn interests. ought 10 have
opeued the door for Wilson 5 hot de-
uuueistiou OF any agency OF Mr..
RYAN in financing his campaign; but
it appears not TO have done so. and
that MAS not The cause of the break.
Senator TiIlmsn's shrcwd guess that
there was something at the back of IL

true. aud the correspondence between

WOMEN IN SCHOOL WORK.

The fact that women are pre-

trv is abundantly evident everywhere.
II is women who do the most of the
teaching: and increasing numbers oil
women are coming INTO the higher
walks of educational effort. More aud

AMERICAN INDUSTRIES

A telegram received in this city yes.
terday by Mr. John Dcrn, was TO the
effect that the House Committee on
Ways aud Means had reported favor
ably the bill heretofore referred 10,
revising the metal schedules and re-
dueing the tariff rates on zinc aud lead.
The proposition is to put the tariff on
lead or the lead contents OF lead ores
at twenty-five per cent. Thus, lead
imported 10 this country from Mexico,
i let us say. with a valuation of 81 per
hundred, or $40 per ton. would pay 90
cents a hundred or $40 per ton, on
the lead contents At present. such
| imports would pay $50 ton on the
lead contained in the ores. The propo
stiou, therefore. is to take away two
thirds OF the protection which the
American miner receives as against
the upderpaid peon laborer of Mexico.
AS TO zinc, the same would apply
in proportion, aud as to that, there is
already revolt among the Democratic
Cougressnen of Missouri, fourteen of
them, who, recognizing the Importance
OF the zinc industry to their State.
which is the chief zinc-producing State
of the Union, are showing signs Of
breaking away from the Democratic
idea aud of saving the zinc industry
of their State as against the threat.
ened irruption of zinc from other parts
of the world.
The proposition, in fact, as to these
two metals, is to put the lead and the
zinc industry of this country in the
hands Of foreigners and take it ont
of the hands OF Americans. We doubt
very much if, on square vote, even
in . Democratic House. proposition
of this kind could prevail.
But, since a Democratic House is
offset III this matter by Republican
Senate. and further 10y Republican
President, aud since that President has
declared that he will not sign bills
for tarifl revision except on the recon-
mendation OF the Tariff Board, aud
since, moreover, this board has made
no report or recommendation whatever
on the metal schedule, the likelihood
of legislation OF this kind is small in.
deed,
At tho same time, this effort 10 Kill
two great American industries, whether
meant IN earnest or only for political
bunconhe, shows an evil disposition on
the part Of the Democratic leaders,
aud it will weaken them tremendously
IN all the States that produce either
zinc or lead. IN any Issue Of this Kind,
Missouri would be rather sure "a he

OF The great West, Democracy ought 10
