NOW WILL THE
ROBBERS CONFESS

Was it a game Of bluff that the
manufacturers were playing when
they predicted so fiercely that if the
tariff that has just been enacted
and put into effect should ever be-
come q law il would spell ruin for
them and for the industries they
conducted, as well as for the whole
country?
Will the country experience a
period Of industrial. commercial
and financial stagnation through
the operations of this law, or have
those who profited from the pro-
tective system simply been seeking
to bluff US all into leaving them
undisturbed in their graft?
A significant note comes from
Lawrence, Mass. Most of US will
recall how during the strike in the
great wooden industries Of that
city. the manufacturers of wooden
fabrics were ~raucously prUclaiming
their certainty that if they were to
pay the wages demanded they
would all go broke.
Then We heard them again later
proclaiming that if the proposed
tariff bill were to pass with its pro-
visions for radically reducing the
tariff tax on imported wooden goods
they would all be forced out Of
business, because they just SIM
ply had to have protection to en-
able them to compete with foreign
cheap labor.
Hence it has been interesting to
read in the Boston News Bureau of
recent issue that American Wooden
stock, preferred, al up 81 points
Since d lower tariff was assured"
That although Woods company
doesn't have to operate more than
60 per cent Of the capacity of it's
plant to fill current orders "it ex-
poets to maintain its unbroken pre-
ferred dividend rate of fifteen
years." and that "cn its big selling
lines it is Offering prices which
actually defy foreign competition"
How are we to account for it?
Paying more wages than before,
operating only a part of its plant,
this trust is defying foreign COM
petition, expecting meanwhile to be
able to earn its usual dividends.
The situation in regard to this
trust has excited attention through
out the eastern press, not only
among the papers that favored
tariff reduction. but those that OPP
posed it. 1t has been suggested by
one Of the former that there must
pe merit in making a trust hustle
for a living. However it is known
that most of the conditions that
must arise from the new tariff
measure were long ago anticipated
by the trust 50 that nothing radi.
cal in results will be observable
Immediately after the taking effect
Of the law.
But IL you had been a manufac-
turer clamoring piteousIy for fifty
years that the masses should tax
themselves for your benefit, and
insisting that If the advantage of
that tax lei denied you it would
put you out Of business, what
would you do now, the people hav-
ing refused to be longer taxed for
you.
Wouldn't you feel that YOU must
either bust up or confess that you

and as there will not be enough
money on hand for two officers until
that has been done, there may be

1t has been generally expected
that officer Meshrow would be re-
tired from the police force to work
solely for the Board of Education.
The aldermen, particularly the
members of the police committee,
Messrs. Clark, Sandbeck and Hilker,
saw the report OF the competitive
examinations last night. Some ex-
pressed a desire to see the examina-
tion papers. No attempt. 1t is said,
was made to choose any men from

FIRE ESCAPES
ON THE HOTELS (.

Contending that number of
three-story hotels in this city were
veritable fire traps, the Board OF
Aldermen began action last night
to compel the erection Of fire es-
capes where necessary. The subject
was discussed with deep interest at
their committee meeting and 1t was
conceded that some means should
be taken Immediately to prevent any
fire horrors in locau hotels. To that
end, the f1re committee. composed
of Aldermen Kutcher Seaman and
Wilson, and Alderman Clark were
chosen to study the proposition and
draft such measures a. they see fit
10 protect hotel patrons.
In discussion of the subject last
night some of the best and most
prominent hostelries In the city
were brought as examples OF fire
traps. One In particular, which has
but single stairway leading from
the ground floor to the third
story, was mentioned as one which
might cause a horrible loss of life
by fire.
1t Is the aim of the council to
cause iron fire escapes to be erected
outside Of hotels where they are
deemed necessary for theprotection
Of life.

good at 1 o'clock this afternoon af
ter watching the Inauguration of his
successor as governor, Senator
James F. Fielder, and making q
speech before the joint session OF
the legislature in which the keynote
was the need OF courage in public
men. He also declared that the
country must be ruled by conscience
5000 to 10000 attended the cere-
mony, filing the streets and the cap
ital. In his speech "Mr. Wilson"
said In part:
''I already loved the state OF New
Jersey when I became Its governor,
but that love has been deepened and
intensified during the last two and
O half years. I now feel a sense of
Identification with the people of
this state and the interests of the
state which have seem to enlarge
my own personalities ara which has
been the greatest privilege of my
life. Therefore, in handing the seal
of the state to the new governor l
want to utter these few words of
poignant regret: That cannot serve
this great state directly any longer
I wish for the moment that the trav-
elings from New Jersey were less
facile than 1t Is and yet have the
greatest feeling OF confidence in the
man to whom am about to hand
this seal. I have been associated
with his with unusual intimacy OF
counsel. have found in him quail
tiles of honesty and courage which
commends more than any other
qualities do to public life.
"The rarest thing IN public life
is courage and tho man who has
courage Is marked for distinction
The man who has not Is marked for
extinction and deserves submersion.
The people OF this country are going
to be served by conscience and not
by expediency. When you strike a
man of courage you feel you have
struck the bedrock of our institu-
tons"

rived at the State House, he and
Senator Fielder climbed into an au-

forced their way back through the
