THE PRESIDENTS PROTESTS.
The World
President Wilson's protest against
the German Governments war zone"
proclamation is strong and emphatic
hut II is neither stronger nor more en-
phatic than the case requires.
This Is almost the language OF an ul-
timatum, but It is the language of an
ultimatum designed to maintain peace
between the United States and Ger
many and to prevent war between the
United States and Germany.
No neutral Government capable OF
protecting its rights could ever accept
the doctrine Of maritime lynch law
which Germany asserted In its war
zone" proclamation. when the Pres!-
dent warns Germany OF the serious con-
sequences of such policy he Is pre-
forming an at Of friendship which Ber-
lin, II 10 rs wise, will construe as an act
of friendship
The Presidents note to the British
Government protesting against the use
or the American flag on British mcr-
onAnt ships Is corollary of the Ger
man note, Here again the Presiden.
Is the voice Of American senti-
ment,
The doctrines which the President has
defined In these two notes are sound In
international law, sound in Justice and
sound i'm morals.

MUST HAVE PROTECTION

An Eastern free trade Journal very
giibly and with assumed defniteness
remarks that there will be no ground
for the least reversion to a protective
policy on the part OF the United
States after the war IL over or on &C
count OF Its results" This IL said In
spite OF the fact that the supporters OF
the administration are agitating the
question OF changes In the present lib
eral tariff duties. The Underwood bill
was shaped along lines to conform 20
the Democratic shibboleth OF "tarin
Tor revenue only" but II has failed to
meet that promise. not counting the
other delusion Il held out TO reduce
the cost OF living. The Democratic
tariff has failed 20 do anything except
TO destroy and distress. The tariff
principles OF the Republican party
have not only produced revenues. but
have afforded something infinitely
more important. protection. That r..
IL has made the country twice blessed
In protecting the employer against the
ruinous competition OF the foreigner.
and protected the workingman against
the pauper labor OF Europe. Sixteen
years OF unexampled prosperity were
the 'exemplified fruits OF the protec-
tive tariff in comparison with the
stagnation periods when the Demo
cratic tariffs were working. The two
economic policies have been proved
out There Is no speculation or theo-
~ about their relative values.
As effective as has been foreign
competition heretofore under Demo.
cratic tariffs. IL will be much more so
when this war is over. Labor will be
cheaper than ever in Europe. and the
manufacturers will be more eager
than ever TO regain their old markets
and get new ones TO recoup them
selves. II the present tariff is in
vogue when this war closes. the op-
portunity for getting into our home
market will be greater than II would
be under a protective tariff. ANY ad.
vantages we may have gained during
the war will soon be dlssipated: we
shall lose any dominance we shall
have gained over the home market.
and the first to suffer will be the
workingman in lower wages. or no
wages at all.

On the face OF the returns, the nc

Here is a case that is distinctly con-
Trajectory OF that hope. II seems there
were enough sane-thinking people left
In the Mecca OF easy divorce to form
party in favor OF a semblance of de.
cency. where a riot OF immortality
seems TO have succeeded several
years OF staidness. A ticket repre-
senting moderate reforms was in the
field against the advocates OF a wide
open town" and the natural expecta-
tion was that the candidates on the
former ticket would have the unquali-
fed support OF the women. bet such
was not the case. But does this IN
stance Of waywardness definitely indi-
cate that the contentious OF the suf.
frsgette propaganda are false and de-
lusive? Not at all. II can be pointed
out that in the recent Chicago cleo
tion the women bulked large on the
side OF reform. and were really the de
Gliding factor in the contest.
The local conditions at Reno must
be taken into consideration before

for license. luxury and levity rather
than in favor OF limitous and rational
bounds. The moral sense OF the great

States cannot. and ought not to be
judged by the painful performances OF
the Reno sisterhood. any more than
the moral standards Of the men OF the
country are TO be judged by the crooks
and gamblers who worked and voted
for vice against virtue in the Chicago
