PINCHING THE
 STANDPATTERS' TARIFF

No sa1aried agent or subsidized or gan of the American Protective Tariff Association pleads more disinterested- ly for high protection than MT. Roose- welt, now that he has his eye upon the nomination of party to which he does not even pretend to owe ale glance.
 First a Harvard free-trader; then one who regarded tariffs as too com plicated for spontaneous oratory; then for nearly eight years a President without a tariff policy; then believ- CT in the theory that the tariff was al- ways used as a red herring to Kill the trail that the truly righteous were Valiantly following; then fierce in his denunciation of the fine old extortion- ate tariff that MT.

BONAPARTE FEARS WAR

Charles Joseph Bonaparte, former Secretary of the Navy and Attorney General of the United States and most distinguished of the descendants of King Jerome Bonaparte of Westpha- lia, the brother of Napoleon the Great, was born in Baltimore sixty-five years ago today. MT. Bonaparte has prac
 ticed law in Baltimore ever since he graduated from Harvard in 1874. He entered President Rooseve1t's cabinet as Secretary of the Navy in 1905. and the following year he was made Attor- ney-General, a portfolio he held until 1909.
 The former head of Uncle Sam's navy has been from the first fervid supporter of preparedness" and has sought by word and pen to awaken the American people to the urgent need of prompt and adequate provi- sion for the national defense.'' That the United States, 'tF'riend1ess and helpless, but enormously rich,'' is all most certain to have war forced upon her unless steps are immediately talk en to provide a larger navy, is the view expressed by MT. Bonaparte. MT. Bonaparte is a grandson of King Jerome Bonaparte and his American wife, Elizabeth, daughter of William Patterson, of Baltimore. Jerome, the youngest of Napoleon's brothers, was a young naval officer when he came 1 to America in 1903. He went to Bal timore, where he was feted by society, and met Miss Patterson, the daugh- ter of a wealthy retired merchant. | Against the objections of her father she soon became the bride of the dash ing Corsican, and after the empire
 was declared she returned with her
 husband to Europe. Napoleon for
 bade the bride to land in France, and
 she went to England, where she gave
 birth to a son, Jerome Napoleon Bon ] aparte. The Emperor annulled the
 marriage of his brother to the Amer ican girl, and forced him to wed a daughter of the King of Wurtemberg 1 after which he was given the crown | of the kingdom of Westpha1ia.
 The deserted wife returned with her
 son to America. The lad was reared in Baltimore, and in 1929 married a young woman of that city, Susan May williams. They had two sons, the l eldest, Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte graduating from West Point and after | serving two years in the American army. entering the service of France He fought gal1antly in the Crimean Italian and Franco-Prussian wars, af ter which he returned to America, dy ing at Beverly, Mass in 1893. He 1 married granddaughter of Danie | Webster, by whom he had a daughter I and son. The latter remained il l America, but the daughter became the bride of a Danish nobleman.
