Protection,

Shall we manufacture dyestuffs in
quantities to meet our own necessi-
ties? The industry can be establish
ed in this country, and should be. We
have the raw materials, and can COM
mand the skilled labor. We have SUI
fered in that line, as in others, as the
result of the war. We have been de-
pendent on Germany for our DIVES :;
and our business relations with that
country have been dislocated for
twelve months. Hence the interest
now attaching to that particular sub
ject.
The leading consideration in the
premises is protection. Shall protec-
tion be afforded The German in
dustry has not been, and will not be,
destroyed by the war Upon the re-
turn OF peace, German manufacturers
will return to full speed again, and
have greatly the advantage in our
markets unless our markets are pro-
tected for the home industry.
ocCretdTy hedHeio 1aVors the pro-
lection, and puts the case in this
way:
Capital hesitates under existing
conditions to embark heavily in an
undertaking where there is a strong
probability, if not certainty, that
upon the return of normal conditions
an incipient, half developed American
industry would be exposed to pro-
1onged and relentless underselling by
foreign competitors possessing al
most boundless resources, financial
and technical"

Cumulative Perplexlty.

Some citizens were once annoyed
By things which went awry.
A grave committee they employed
To learn the how and why.
The question really seemed quite
clear.
Till that committee quit.
But their endeavors all sincere
Had mussed it up a bit.
Those citizens were stout of heart
And never feared the worst.
A new committee made a start
To straighten out the first.
1t isn't hard to understand
Some feelings rather sore;
They took that poor old question and
Just mussed 1t up some more,

CONDITIONS IN RUSSIA
Internal Situation in Cars Empire
Said to be Grave

Amsterdam, Sept. % = Travellers
who have returned recently from a
visit to Russia, particularly to Petro-
grad, picture the internal situation ~
the cars empire as grave.
One prominent Russian who IS on
his way to France in connection with
war contracts asserted today that Sc
rious difficulties have arisen at inc
Imperial court in Petrograd.
Ever since the outbreak OF the war
this Russian declares, the Russian
court has been divided into two camps
singularly enough, the stronger OF the
two appears to be the pro-German
faction.
So influential is this faction that it
has succeeded in asserting its Will
on many vital questions, although II
is unable to interfere with the decis-
ions of the military staff.
The name and influence of some Of
its members has enabled the pro-Ger-
man faction to obtain frst-hand In
formation of extremely important
value to the Germans. The situation
reached it's climax after several court
members of high standing resolved
m eyDose the clique,
The police revealed the astounding
fact that the man at the head Of the
special investigation service intrusted
with the work of discovering German
spies in Russia was German spy
himself. This man, was reported In .
recent cable dispatch, was executed.
