The Republican party stands now, as always. in the fullest sense for the policy of tariff protection to American industries and American labor and does not regard an anti-durD;ng provision as an adequate substitute. Such protection should be req sonable tg amount. but sufficient to pro- tect adequately American industry and American labor and be so adjusted as to prevent undue eXactiOns by monopolies or trusts It should. moreover, give special attention to securing the industrial inde- pendence of the United States, as in the ease of dyestuffs.

DR.. JOHN B. MURPHY DIES AT
MACKINAc ISLAND
The body of the late DR.. John B.
Murphy is expected in Chicago by
noon today. Relatives fastened to
Mackinac Island last night to make
arrangements for the removal.
Dr.. Murphy, one of the worlds
greatest physicians, died yesterday
afternoon. His career, which started
thiTty-two years ago in a shanty at
Harrison and Halsted sts., was a re-
markable one.
Beginning with the poor, whom he
charged 81 a treatment, DR.. Murphy
worked himself into a valuable prac-
tice and married into the Plamondon
family, one Of the richest in Chi
cago.
Of later years DR.. Murphy charged
as much as 800 for an examination.
During the past six months his health
has been so poor that he retired from
active work, only prescribing for
friends of an occasional poverty
stricken sufferer who had sought him
out.
Death came yesterday from angina
pectoris, which is neuralgia of the
heart, akin to heart disease. The
heat wave in Chicago brought on his
end and DR.. Murphy realized for
weeks that his health was failing.
On advice Of associates, he hast
ened to Mackanic in hope that the
cooler weather would bring relief.
His death was surprise to relatives
and friends. Only DR.. Murphy saw
how near the end was:
He leaves a widow and three girls.
The doctors estate is estimated at
81, 600, 900.

IT'S AN OLD ALARM

III every preSldentlai CAM
paign since Washington's day the
orators have declared the country
was on the verge Of the greatest
crisis since the republic was
founded.
You know that old crisis is
tucked away in mothballs. Every
four years we take it out and dust
1t off and yell about It. | don't
believe the country is facing any
such crisis as it did in the days
when Abe Lincoln was at the
helm.
In fact, l think it highly prob
able that the republic may sur
vive through the fall and winter
If the republicans win, but 1t will
be in safer hands If Wilson is
kept in command.
COBB'S SCOOP
mo matter which party wins,
| want to give you a scoop; the
crisis will be put back in the CAM
phor chest for another four
years"
Then 1 put the question to
Cobb:
You have been abroad several
times since the war started. A
lot of people who have been In
Europe have come back saying
there never was a time when
America was SO little thought of
as it has been because of Wilson's
policies, In fact, they said they
were ashamed of their country.
How about it,"
ANSWER is ANGRY
Cobb became very serious, as
he said angrily:
81 know. A few prominent,
near-prominent and almost-prom-
inent people, together with a
bunch of hope-to-be-prominents,
have given that stuff to the news
papers. And 1t is false, every
word of 1t.
ANY - time Il = am -
ashamed - of - my - country
= I'm = not-coming - back"
he said seriously and slowly.
And that is what those snobs
ought to do-stay away! II they
are ashamed of their country, that
makes it unanimous, because the
country is certainly ashamed of
them!
WILSON'S RECORD
Wilson, in the face of a d.
vided public opinion, has kept
reasonable peace within his own
party, has kept national and inter-
national peace, has not engaged
In vituperative argument.
He may have coined few
phrases, but he did not emulate
Teddy in calling everyone who
disagreed with him a liar.
Hughes is a sad failure. He
fell out with his party organiza-
ton in New York city, parted
company with most of his old
time advisers and, | am told, is
not on speaking terms any more
with his barber.
SPEECHES ARE FUTILE
His speaking tours are giving
satisfaction to everyone but the
republicans. He started out by
pointing to grave abuses in the
national government, to great
crimes of omission and commits
sion by Wilson, and he wound up
with the charge that a republican
had ben removed to make place
for a democratic boss doctor.
81 suppose that is the crisis
that caused him to doff the err
mine of the justice for the motley
of the piffling politician.
JUDGE HUSBANDS HOUND
Somehow, Hughes reminds me
Of the hunting hound old Judge
Husbands grandfather imported
to Paduoah, Ky. 1t was the best
dog ever bred down in North Car
DINA and brought to Kentucky. 1t
had the stoutest heart and the
soundest lungs and the most will
