Mr.. Hughes on Protection.

A staff correspondent of The Star,
recording the effects of Mr.. Hughes
stumping tour, writes from Tacoma of a
measure of disappointment because of
the refusal of the candidate in discuss
ing the tariff to specialize. The people
Of Montana were expecting assurances
as to copper, the people of Washington
as to lumber.
Mr.. Hughes did not "play up" local
industries, and will not do SO in his trip
He is treating the tariff as national
proposition. He believes in protection,
and is in position to promise tariff
law drawn on protection lines in case Of
republican success in both the presi-
Dental and congressional contests. Full
republican control would mean a return
to protection as a definite policy, with
all deserving American industries in
need Of protection sharing. The copper
Of Montana, the lumber Of Washington,
the wines and fruits Of California, the
sugar Of Louisiana, the cotton manu-
features Of many states, east and south,
and other things, will be considered on
their merits at that time.
Mr.. Hughes is right New times and
conditions, new schedules and rates. A
return Of the republicans would not mean
the re-enactment of either the Dingley
law or the Payne law, but the enact
ment Of tariff law as definitely and
distinctly protective as either, and ad-
justed, as they were, to existing needs.
Protection sentiment is, and has al
ways been, moro general in this country
than election figures have shown. The
south is for protection, but. under the
influence Of local issues without the
slightest connection with the tariff, votes
against protection. And in the east are
men who train with the democracy, con-
tribute to its campaign funds and vote
its tickets, who never have been, and
are not now, in favor of a, tariff for
revenue only.
The income tax is q new factor in
taxation. and will cut an important fig
ure in the next revision Of the tariff. II
the policy Of ~socking it" to the we'll.

customs collections can be reduced be.

Germany on Pirates.

When England protested against the
execution of Capt. Fryatt by Germany
on charge of piracy for having sought
TO ram German submarine on q voyage
prior TO that ON which he was captured,
the German admiralty responded with a
statement justifying the act as obvious
~ legal and right. The admiralty's
statement continued:
-. The German court martial condemned
Capt. Fryatt TO death because he com
emitted an act of war against Germany
..rithout being enlisted in his eountry's
forces"
II is important to note this language
Of the official defense of the Fryatt ex-
ecution. in the light of other language
from an official German source, just late
1y published. 1t is to be found in the
new State Department print Of diplo-
matte correspondence with belligerent
governments relating to neutral rights
and duties, embracing the correspond
ence bearing on the submarine issue.
February 10, 1916, the Berlin foreign
Office handed to Ambassador Gerard a
memorandum, dated February 8, 1916,
bearing on the treatment Of armed mer-
ehantmen, in the course Of which the
status of commerce and passenger ships
'5rmed for defense was discussed. Under
paragraph two of this memorandum oc-
ours the following sentence:
at (the German government) consid.
ers any warlike activity of an enemy
merchantmen contrary to international
law, although it accords consideration to
the opposite view by treating the crew
of such a vessel not as pirates but as
belligerents."
This is the broadest possible inclusion
: HAny warlike activity" Of an enemy
merchantmen is rated as placing the
,erew-which naturally includes the OH.
Seers-in the class Of beHigerents. The
attempted rsmming Of q submarine may
be regarded as q warlike act.
