The Tariff u an l»»ue
Postmaster General Smith, in
an interyiew published in an Oma
ha paper, is credited with having
used this language:
"The tariff is not an issue of the
same importance as in the past.
The policy of protection aimed to
build up our industries to a point
where th^y could stand independ
ent on their own feet. This ob
ject has been accomplished. Pro
tecton has established the com
plete industrial independence of
this country, More than that, it
may fairly be said that it has sub
stantially established our indus
trial supremacy. The truth has
been demonstrated within the last
two years, as we are now beat
ing the products of the Old
World on their own grounds.
"With this development of our
home industries to the point where
they completely possess the home
market and are able to reach
abroad, the protective issue has
not the same vital force it had
during the period of struggle and
development."
This prompts the Chicago
"Chronicle" to ask: "Then why
not abolish protection, all that has
been accomplished would be de
stroyed. While here and there
some industry has under its aegis
so thriven and developed as to no
longer require the paternal as
sistance of the Government and
should be placed upon the free
list instead of being an argument
in support of the abolition of the
policy under which the manufact
ures of America are fast reaching
the happy stage of independence,
this happy result rather stands as
an object lesson calculated to im
press every lovei* of his country
with the wisdom of that policy
which has brought to wealth,
happiness and prosperity an en
tire people.
The tariff can no longer be
made the all-absorbing issue of
a political campaign because the
benefits of protection are so uni
versally recognized that its most
persistent enemies have no long
er the courage to assail it. Four
years of contrast under the op
eration of each of the two oppos
ing systems have been fraught
with an experience which the peo
ple are unwilling to unlearn. Suf
fering, beggary, starvation and
bankruptcy, which have settled
on the nation like a pall, have
given way to the most phenomen
al era of universal prosperity that
ever glorified and uplifted an af
flicted continent, and the masses
refuse absolutely to exchange the
material benefits of a safe and
salutary policy for the promises of
an illusive chimera which had
brought in its train but disaster
and ruin.
This is the truism that Post
master General Smith announced,
and that his declaration is to go
unchallenged is made evident by
the solicitude with which the
leaders of the Democratic party
jealousy avoid all reference to the
tariff issue. Four years of a de
velopment which has firmly es
tablished our industrial supremacy
affords a practical illustration of
the virtues of a protective tariff
which even Mr. Bryan is content
to respect. In this sense, not only
is the tariff no longer an issue of
the same importance as in the
past, but it is in every essential
a dead issue.—New Orleads
States.
Doe» Marriage Letten trime T
The statistical investigation of
Dr. Frederick Prinzing seem to
show that married men are more
law-abiding than bachelors, and
widowers are worse than
either;
"Property right* of all kinds
are more generally respected by
the married than by the single.
The graver offenses against prop
erty—robbery, extortion, fraud,
etc.—are committed by the mar
ried man with comparitive infre
quency. When he is driven to
the unlawful acquirement of
wealth or of material goods, he
generally chooses some of the
less dangerous methods of so do
ing. Receiving stolen goods,
breaking of laws relative to trade,
commerce, and public health, for
cible detention of piece* of prop
erty, bankruptcy, etc., are the
forms which offense* against
property usually assume among
married men. Among those
married at an extremely early
age (eighteen to twenty-five)
trespasses against the right* of
property are much more common
than among the unmarried at a
corresponding age. This is
probably explained by the fact
that in such marriages poverty, if
not a concomitant, is frequently a
result. Incendiarism i* most
largely found among the unmar
ried, the greatest proportion fall
ing to the account of widowers
and single men between the ages
of thirty and sixty years. • • •
In the sphere of crime and offense
against human life, the unmarried
are greater sinner* than the mar
ried, tho not so markedly 90 a* in
the offences against property
rights. Only in the matter of
careless and negligent killing and
wounding do the married surpass
the unmarried. The difference
in the criminality of the married
and the unmarried grows less
with advancing years. Between
the age« of fifty and sixty year*
it is small: after that period it is
less * * * The criminality of
widowers decreases with advanc
ing age. Their share in crime
between the ages of thirty and
fifty is notably greater than that
of either of the other classes men
tioned • * * It has been said, in
attempted explanation of this fact
that widowers are, as a rule, ill
situated, financially, but there ap
pears to be no satisfactory evi
dence that this is true. Statistics
do not prove that widowers be
long to the poorer classes in any
unusual degree. Widowers are
especially prominent in offences
against property; but they also
stand first in the series of those
guilty of other classes of crime.
The loss of the wife very fre
quently leads to mental derange
ment, and it is probably true, as
well, that certain types of self
control are peculiarly difficult for
this class to exercise.—"Zeitschrif

Produce a Remedy.
A* to the political responsibil
ity for trust* there ia none. Trusts
are no more Republican or Dem
ocratic than are ordinary busi
ness combinations oa a small
scale. Their friend* and enemies,
the beneficiaries and victim*, are
in all parties, and they thrive in
England and Germany as well as
in America. In the eastern rural
districts, where the heaviest Re
publican vote exists, the warfare
upon trusts is waged with more
vigor than is evidenced in Demo
cratic cities, where the
bulk of the laboring popula
tion is in some way dependent on
industrial pursuits. Produce a
remedy for the evil and the Re
publican party will be as quick to
take it up and press it as any oth
er. Nor will it be less assiduous
in search of a remedy. With
things in this condition how is it
possible to|draw campaign] lines?
People who are agreed cannot
divide the fight. When two par
ties are equally solicitous to
"smash the trusts" how is one,
unless it presents a remedy which
the other rcjects, going to profit
bv the ispue?
The great trouble is that no
one ha* a remedy. The federal
law is necessarily limited in its
appl'caticn; the state law has uni
formly failed. Has'ihe Democ
racy anything new to suggest?
If it has not its slogan of "smash
the trusts!" will be as meaning
less and inconsequential as one to
wipe out the grip or abolish the
measles.—Idaho Falls Register.
Utter From Adjutant General.

community to send as many of
their representative citizens as
possible, that we may extend to
the returning Volunteers a hearty
