WORK FOR A CHANGE.
Business Men Want Republicans

All Through the Country They Are
Tired Of Continued Democratic
Incompetency-New System Of
Protection Must BE Devised.

The recent meeting OF business men
in New York looking to the return
Of the Republican party to power Is
noteworthy as q symptom. AS mat
tiers stand, business is disgruntleo
toward the Democracy. No one
branch of business, but all branches
Manufacturing has In mind the IN
derwood tariff, which has crippled or
closed up many plants. Banking Is
not sure about the new currency

Corporations are pHzzled about the

hands OF lawyers entirely great, may
mean much or nothing. For one or
all OF these reasons depression Is al
most unprecedented. and. naturally.
business men are figuring ON
change, and organizing to speed the
day.
A word about the tariff. Business
interests. as always. want protec'
lion. They have profted by 1t. and
desire the restoration OF that pol
icy. They will get it II. and when,
the party of protection resumes full
control of the government.
But, while there will be return to
that policy specifically. there will
not, because there cannot, be q re-
turn to any past particular express
sion of it. That is to say, protection,
as expressed In o law for this time
or any time soon, could not follow
The lines of the Mckinley law, the
Dingley law. or the Payne law. The
conditions under which and for which
those measures were shaped do not
now exist, and will not be restored.
If the Republican PARTY is again com
missioned to write a tariff law 1t
must make 1t conform to the existing
conditions.
And the protection must be con-
sentative and symmetrical. A Chi
nese wall is not necessary anywhere
now. Many Of our industries have
fiourished to that extent they do not
require the rates they needed at the
start, and some can 90 without any
protection at all. This was true II
years ago, as Mr.. Mckinley, in what
proved to be his last public speech
pointed out at Buffalo.

-Four Theories Advanced

The most discussed theories are
four: That the boat was overload
ed; that the tug that made fast to
warp the Eastland from the docks
started too soon; that congestion Of
passengers to the port side tipped
the steamer over; a likely theory is
that most of the water ballast had
been forced from the tanks and this
made the boat top heavy.
