SuuaraIy for Protectfor.

In the present campaign only one party faVOrs 8 tariff that will protect American industries, and the Ameri- can standard of wages and living. The Democratic National Convention show ed that the party leaders have made no substantial change in their free trade policy. The only way to return to protective principles is to elect the Republican ticket. MT. Bryan, for one Democrat, sees and admits that the party has not materially modified it's CObdenite intentions. The talk of tariff commission is o blind It is Congress that makes tariffs. A Dem OcratlC Congress will never pass a pro- tective tariff law, no matter what 9 tariff commission says or does. Nor will such a commission under a. Dem Ocraf1C administration recommend the abandonment of free trade. or concede that free-trade theories have broken down. They have plainly been dropped by England in regard to the future action of it's allies. France and Rus sta are protective countries, and would not for an instant consider the adoption of free trade. No longer can England contend that free tradeefs 9 preventive of war, a safeguard in the growCh of universal peace sentiment Already the allies have taken steps toward an agreement on protective measures in trade. As for Germany it has always been firmly and comDre- hensively protective. Its whole eco homie system is based on the protec- tion of all it's interests on sea and land
 The United States under all Repub lican administrations there have been few of any other kind in the last hftT-f1ve years-has been a protective nation. Our vast national progress since 1861. Is identified with the pro tective policy. All this time the Dem ocratiC party has been for free trade. It has never been a protective plat form, nor confessed to any failure of a tariff for revenue only. This leopard will never change it's spots. A vote for Wilson will be a renewal of the free-trade program, an extension of the present tariff law. a license to go farther in the same direction, a notice served that the dumping of foreign goods is at liberty to proceed. Will sons reelection would be a wink to Congress on the subject of a tariff commission. The party that has al- ways been against tariff duties for protection can be beaten, but never transformed into something else by Globe-Democrat

 ''Oh, just some folks in our building" said the youth. What I was telling you was how the fellow was willing to do anything for the girl and the girl was willing to do anything for the fel- low, just because they was so crazy about each other. And even though the fellow wasn't pulling down awtul big wages after they was married they was happy. Say, it was great, all right"

much of the habitable part there being on islands. On other portions of Greenland the area of ice free land is limited and virtually none of the uninhabited stretches are fit for hu- man occupancy.
 This might therefore be looked upon as no great concession on the part of this country and for the same reason Denmark might not attach any in1por- tance to the inclusion of these rights, but the desire to obtain and hold such rights still prevails among other na- tions as the frequent explorations in dicate and it is to be remembered that there were parts of Alaska about which much the same feeling prevailed but which have since proved to be most valuable

POLITICAL
The Presidents Variable Mind.


 President Wilson's public advocacy of the Heating child labor bill chiefly serves to draw attention to the fact that very short time ago he ex- pressed opposition to this measure. Conditions which have arisen in the last few weeks have apparently con Flnced him that he made a serious blunder in nzs first stand on the bill. and he now huTrieS to it's support In the wake of the popular demand that it be made a law. Maybe he has received assurances from the southern cotton barOns that he will get the vote of the solid south regardless, and that they will take their chances on evading the law, leaving him free to pretend to the labor vote of the north that he has been friendly all the time
 This is not the first time the presi- dent has given proof that he dCes not know just where his single track mind is leading him. He has reversed himself on the Philippine question; on the matter of national defense he has made complete abOut-face move ment; his O1-and- on policy with Mex leo has witnessed so many changes and variations that it has come to be like the snake described in the "Bige- low Papers" of which the observer was unable to say if it ''Was going south or coming back" He changed his mind with regard to free trade. on the tariff commission and on other important issues. Not the least of these is the matter of running for a second term.
 His fellow countrymen have vel cOned some of these reversaIs. and cheerfully accord to MT. Wilson the right to change his mind as often as he likes. But the voters have minds of their own and will soon let him know what they think of a president who is consistent only in his incon- sistency-O Bee.

 Statements are made at this time to the effect that there will be no toys of German manufacture for the Christ mas trade. except that there may be those which have been held over from former seasons. Just what this means can be appreciated vixen it Is considered how much reliance is placed upon imported goods of this charact --.
 But that does not mean that it will be a toyIess Christmas. Far from it. The possibility CT this situation was long since realized. It was under stood that it opened the way and gave encouraGement for the filling of such demands by American manufacturers. IL is another case where foreign pro ducer5 have been depended upon to i'll our wants when we might just as well be supporting industries in our own country. Thus while the war easts it serves as @ protection for American made goods as effectively as the highest tariff wall and American capital is making the response. It is work to which little attention has been paid here, and therefore it IS to be expected that the cost of produc- ton. regardless of the labor conditions, is bound to be greater.
 Still in this as in other lines of manufacture this country is not to be baked and it shows the need of en- cOurag.ns such business following the time when peace is declared. It is time that we asserted our independ7 ence in this as well as in other direc- tious and there is no reason why toy making should not be developed into a profitable business here as well as elsewhere
