GREAT LESSON HERE
European War Shows Value oil
Protective Policy.
Economic Necessity in That 1t Would
Make the United States ~industri-
ally Independent of All For
eign Countries.

The expression has been heard fire.
quently Of late that the European war,
to all intents and purposes, serves the
manufacturing industries of the United
States almost in the same manner and
degree rs a protective tariff. In other
words, if the producers of Europe are
aiken from the fields and the shops
serious falling off in the imports, leav-
ing Americans in full possession of
their own market.
Such a view is subject to various
qualifications. The essential factor, OF
course, is to obtain the necessary
ships As an equivalent to the policy
OF tariff protection, a European war is
sadly deficient in that it lops off mil.
lions from the tariff of the
government. Whatever gain may &C.
crue to the manufacturers is at the
expense of the treasury.
What the European war does &C.
complish, however. is the illustration
OF the economic necessity of tariff pro
lection at all times. The principle Of
protection was forcibly brought home
to the American people during the Ma
poleonic wars, when American states
men showed clearly that the American
public should not be placed at the
mercy of Europe. The great argu
ment for protection at that time was
to have industries so firmly estab
lished in the United States that no Eu
ropean war could deprive us of man
~ufactured articles. The present crisis
points to the same conclusion. II
shows that it is absolutely necessary
for the United States to be made in
dustrially independent of foreign coun
tries and to be brought to the point
where it can produce for itself every
thing needed by its own people.
1t has been a ~favorite argument witt
the tariff-for-revenue-only men tina
if any industry could not compete sue
cessfully with the cheap labor prod
ucts of Europe, suck an industry, il
line with true economy, should b'
permitted to die. If such a policy hat
been followed by the United States il
the past, it would mea that the ma
ton would be utterly unable to sup
port itself in the present European
crisis. Even now the war will deprive
the United States of many articles
such as chemicals used in agriculture
and manufacturing, and would like
wise d%eprivei the country of man.
manufactured articles, such as tex
tiles. metals, ETC., if such industries
had not been well established unde
the protective policy at home.
Whatever else the general war il
Europe may show, it cannot fail t
demonstrate not only the value, bu
the absolute economic necessity of
protective tariff.

CHAPTER *.


Dorcas breathed a sigh Of relief
when her cab drew up beside the
bread line. She had thought during
her brief drive around the block of the
possibility that the man might leave
his place; but there he stood, motion
less. with head bent defiantly against
the singing eddies Of sleet. She
stepped from the carriage and passed
swiftly along the sidewalk beside the
line OF a city's poor. She hesitated for
a few seconds when she reached the
corner, then she stretched out her
hand and laid it on the wet sleeve of
the man before her. He turned and
stared at her for one dazed moment.
He did not speak. Instructive .cour-
tesy reminded him that this was no
place for a woman in a midnight
storm. and his desire to protect her
caused the hunger to be forgotten. He
stepped quietly from the sidewalk and
without a word moved beside her down
the street. The movement caused a
score of men to turn with quick curl
osity, but suddenly a cry ran down the
line: THE doors open!" Everything
else yielded to the march toward synd
Dorcas swiftly led the way to the
carriage. When she opened the dool
and beckoned Merry to enter he hest
tated, the blood flushing into his wal
face.

Too MANY EJecxiors.

Only a few weeks ago 10000 citf
zens of Seattle went to the polls and
voted to have a new city charter
drawn, but when submitted for adop
ton less than twenty thousand cared
enough for it to vote either for OF
against it. This is explained by the
local newspapers, which say that the
people are sick and tired Of so many
elections. In Seattle they have The
initiative and the referendum and the
recall, and pretty much everything
else that can be thought of, and the
result is that an election of one sort
or another is pulled off every few
weeks. 1t is a great thing for the
people t o have all these privileges
but the majority do not seem to want
to be bothered with thern.-Philadel
