the work to be done is so pressing and
SO fraught with big consequence that
We know that we are not at liberty to
weigh against 1t any point OF personal
sacrifice. We are now In the presence
of such an occasion. It Is absolutely
imperative that we should give the
business men OF this country bank
ing and currency system by means Of
which they can make use of the free
dom of enterprise and Of individual
initiative which We are about to be-
stow upon them.
We are about to set them free; we
must not leave them without the tools
of action when they are free. We are
about to set them free by removing
the trammels OF the protective tariff.
Ever since the civil war they have
waited for this emancipation and for
the free opportunities 1t will bring with
IT. 1t has been reserved for us to
give it to them. Some fell in love,
indeed, with the slothful security Of
their dependence upon the govern
ment; some took advantage of the
shelter of the nursery to set up q
mimic mastery Of their own within its
walls. Now both the tonic and the
discipline of liberty and maturity are
to ensue There will be some read
justments of purpose and point OF
view. There will follow period Of
expansion and new enterprise, freshly
conceived. It is for US to determine
now whether it shall be rapid and
facile and of easy accomplishment.
This it can not be unless the resource
full businessmen who are to deal with
the new circumstances are to have at

mentalities and conveniences Of free
enterprise which independent men
need when acting on their own
initiative.

PHILADELPHIANS WANT
NATIONAL REGATTA
Annual Event Will Most Likely Be
Held or the Schuylhll River
Course,

Philadelphia, Dec. 16.-The next national
regatta, the big event in amateur rowing
outside the college, will most likely be
contested over the national course on the
SchuyIkill River. = it is not, it will not
be for lack of effort on the part of the
local oarsmen. who started the boom last
evening. Talk in favor of securing the
national regatta constituted the chief
business brought before the naval board
of the SchuylkiH navy at the Colonnade
Hotel.
1t was figured that the cost of running
the regatta would be from 81, 900 to 81 800,
and every club renewed its pledge of last
season to guarantee its proportion of the
expenses. So far as is known no other
city has made a bid for the national
regatta of 1914, and as the sentiment of
officials and oarsmen is known to be
favorable to Philadelphia, there seems no
room for doubt that the races will be
rowed here the latter part of July next
or early in August. A committee will be
appointed to attend the March meeting
of the National Association of Amateur
Oarsmen, TO be held at New York. when
formal application will be made for the
regatta.
