ut is not only right and proper.
but necessary, that, business men
should have a voice in government
and influence in the direction OF gov
ernmental affairs. Formerly they
did not exert any great influence
there largely because business was
the stronger force and dominated
the weaker. But it is regaining its
place through a quickened and awak-
ened public conscience, and that Is
the new hope Of modern politics.
st believe in tariff protection sci
entifically devised to begin where eff
ficiency Of production leaves off. So
far as the application of laboratory
methods and of scientific processes
will lower the cost of production to
our manufacturers they do not need
and should not ask tariff protection.
But when improved methods have
done what they can then protec-
tive tariff must do the rest to keep
our industries going.
Regardless Of my party afilia-
tons or prejudices that application
Of common sense alone is necessary
10 prove that II we should meet con-
dltions after the war we must at once
adjust the tariff to avoid a re-occur-

termine a question most vital to the
nation, committing it to a pcacy on
a subject which the great agriculture
al and business interests have hard
ly begun to study and understand.
The measure in its present form Is
unsound and should wait at least to
another session, but political expedt-
ency is likely to determine the fate
Of the measure rather than economic
sCundness.

LINCOLN TO Be TURNED
OVER TO BRITISH AGENTS

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1s.-Depart-
ment Of justice officials said tonight
that lgnatius T. Lincoln probably
would be turned over as soon as pos
sible to British agents for removal
to England to face charges pending
against him there. No charges are
pending against him in this country
and none are contemplated, but ONO
lals have not concealed their concern
that he BIO recaptured and removed
from the country.
When first arrested Lincoln Is said
to have indicated that he had intorma-
ton of value. in connection with pass
port fraud cases, but q careful o1am-
nation failed to result in any Inn
portant revelations or furnish any
ground for proceedings against him.
AS evidence Of the deep interest In
the case held by officials here was
seen In the fact that his escape Q
month ago resulted in the removal
from ONCE Of Deputy Marshal T. ].
Johnson who had him In charge.
