recognized as being possessed OF the
broadcast and most generous citizenship,
commend and approve of our course in
increasing the price of the Chronicle.
They are not our best business men
and most generous citizens because
they do that particular thing, but that
is one evidence of their size as citi-

the community is entitled to a fair
living and are ready to contribute their
part to that end.

If this great war teaches any one
thing more forcibly than all else it is
that wars today are in way just
what they were five hundred years
ago: The success of battles depend on
the individual unt-the single man.
England is said to have put almost
one million men in the field; France
likewise. Russia is said to have nearly
five million men under arms. Germany
is said to have close to three millions
under arms. Austria has perhaps a
million men and she has helped Ger
many greatly while trying to subdue
Servia. That means four millions pit
ted against close to seven millions. and
the Germas are not only holding their
own but actually making progress.
The German soldier is the most in
telligent of any in the world because
the illiteracy IN Germany is less than
one per cent, which IS much lower than
any OF the other countries involved.
English soldiers come next to the
Germans in low illlteracy but they are
a tong way behind. The same is true
of the French soldier.
When it comes to the Russian soldier
he is a clod. He acts with blind unre-
asoning Submission and has the lowest
intelligence of any of the nations in
VOWED. The result is that the German
soldier is able to handle him three or
four to one.
Again the Germans are most hardy

stances he can we'll afford to pay such
tariff imposts as license fee in lieu of
paying the taxes he would otherwise
have to pay if his factory were located
in the United States. If we make such
fee too great it will prevent lmporta-
lions or raise prices until domestic
competition has been sufficiently devel-
oped, but if this fee is made too small
we are simply giving a benefit to those
who do practically nothing for 1t in re-
turn. Over and over again it has been
proved so conclusvely that lowering
of the tariff rates has not lowered
prices on manufactured goods con-

made an absolute rule to impose a
sufficient tariff duty on all lines of
manufactured goods coming to this

TARIFF LEGISLATION.
Recent Events Show the Unwisdom Of
Tariff Laws Which Make Us De-
pendent on Foreign Nations
Who Cannot Now Furnish Us
With Certain Things
Vital to Our
Needs.

Referring to our recent article about
the wisdom of Tariff Legislation we
are reprinting herewith part of re-
cent letter concerning the question.
which letter places some phases of the
question in new light and has re-
ceived good deal of favorable notice.
1t ia fuEdame entail to the whole matter
and we commend it to the careful at
tention of our readers.
"No one country has any inherent
right to the market OF any other inde-
pendent people. The world has not
yet advanced to the stage of merging
all national life into an international
pool wa W. is lnonioas national deve1dp-
uiart or self defense.
Recent events have shown how un-
wise it was to pass such tariff laws as
have closed up some of our own factor
les and made US dependent on other
nations who cannot now furnish us
with certain things that are either
necessary for our comfort or vital to
our needs.
England is already taking vigorous
steps to repair the mistake she has
made along certain lines, and it might
be we'll for US to see if the former con-
structive forces of this country were
not wiser than the mere theorists who
made such a mess of our last Tariff
Act. The obstinate clinging to the
Free Trade idea in England (now rap
idly weakening) has a moral basis
there which does not apply to our own
history or conditions.
1.-The question of Free Trade or Pro-
lection for the United States should be
considered entirely from an economic
standpoint and with reference only to
our own symmetrical and healthy ma
tional development. Unfortunately
for our best interests, these economic
questions have recently been IN the
hands OF legislators mostly chosen from
the non. constructive classes of the
community.
There is nothing that SO builds up
a country as varied manufacturing in
dustry, and there is nothing that is so
hard to bring up again as factory
that has to be "scrapped" because of
adverse legislation.
eve do not ask the manufacturers
of other countries to contribute direct
ly to any of the expenses of our gov
eminent or towards the maintenance
OF our complex civilization, but If we
do allow them the benefit of access to
the largest market in the world, why
should they not be required to pay rea-
sonably for that privilegef
"Our own manufacturers already
here all have to pay in some form or
other of taxation for doing business,
and there is no good reason, either in
equity or economics, why foreign man.
ufacturers should have access to our
markets without paying tor such priv
ilege at least an amount equal to the
difference in labor and to provide
against dumping their surplus goods on
our shores.
"a reasonable tariff impost is usually
paid by the foreign manufacturer from
his profits, and under ordinary circum-
