SITUATION UP TO DATE
WHO 15 PROTECTED?
BENEFITS THAT LABOR GETS
FROM THE TARIFF ARE VERY
SLIGHT INDEED.
SOME COTTON MILL FIGURES
Fallacy of Republican Arguments Con
cerning the Textile Trade Is Piti
lessly Exposed by Official State Sta
tiatica Gathered in Massachusetts.
We have seen In this campnltin few
ttl'vgs moro delicious than the ltepub
llcan campaign document In which
Theodore Justice speaks of the tex
tile trade "where the protective bene
fits of the tariff nearly all go to labor."
Well, if they do. tiey are very slight
The Massachusetts bureau of statistics
has shown that while only ;,2 per cent,
of the dS.'I.OOO men, women nnd chil
dren In all the Industries get less than
$10 a week. 7& per cent of the cottou
workers get less than that amount.
More than half the wag" earners cov
ered by this report receive less than
$10 n week And they are prnctlcully
all protected. In the Massachusetts
cotton mills about half the employes
receive less than $8 a week. It was
not long ago shown that In one of the
highly protected Industrie,. 10 per
cent, of the employes did not make a
living wage
Figures might be piled liiKh but
those wa have given will serve It
may be laid down as a general prin
ciple that wages In protected Indus
tries nn almost without exception low
cr than those In unprotected Indus
tries Wages of from $7 to $10 u week
can hardly be called generous. As a
matter of fact, they ure not enough to
enable those who get them to main
tain "the American standard of liv
ing." There are certain men who talk
a gn at deal about child labor, and
who eeetn to feel that employera kid
nap the children and make them work
tn the mills The truth, of course, la
that' In our protected industries wages
aru often so low that It la necossury
for wives and children to go to work
In order to help support the family
It Is surprising that Mr Justice and
others like him should think that the
American people can longer be fooled
by the old "arguments " The figures
that disprove the theory ure within the
reach of all. It la simply absurd lo
sny that In the toMllc Industries "tho
protective benefits of the tnrlfT nearly
all go to labor" The fact Is other
wise In Mr I-nuck's Atlantic article,
entitled "A Heal Myth." Is thla:
"A yard of man's worsted suiting
was found by the tariff board to cost
an American mill $1.71 to place on the
market The rate of payment to the
weaver on this cloth was ascertained
to be only U cents a yard, but the pres
ent tariff duty Is $1.02."
11 wa credit to protection the whole
D oents which tho laborer recelv, -which
Is absurd, slnro he would get
something, tariff or no tariff we still
have !i7 centB of the tariff duty to ac
count for Manifestly It does not go
to the workman, for he gets only 5
route. We fear that it finds Its way
into the pocketB of the employer Here
Is a protective duty of $1.02 designed
to cover the difference between labor
costs here and abroad, and yet the
total labor cost Is 5 cents Mr. Justice
can hardly expect the American work
lugmen to accept this statement. If
thla Is the beat that protection can
do it la in a bad way Indianapolis

Ten Wilson Reasons.
It Is conceded by all that the elec
tion of Governor Wlleon means an Im
mediate downward revision of the tar

j cry In certain quarters against the
j election of Governor Wilson
The wool trust Is crying out against
ihe election of Governor Wilson and
the downward revision of the tariff.
The cotton mill trust is crying out
against the election of Governor Wil
son nnd the downward revision of tho
tariff.
The harvester trust Is crying out
araltiBt the election of Governor Wil
son and the downward revision of the
tariff.
The augar trust la crying out
against the election of Governor Wil
son ond the downward revision of the
tariff.
The steel trust Ib crying out against
the election of Governor Wilson and
the downward revision of the tariff.
The Aldrlch rubber trust Is crying

Wilson nnd the downward revision ol

trusts, the side show by which the "In
terests" hope to divert public atten
tion from the real Isaues of the cam
paign. Is crying out against the elec
tlon of Governor Wilson and the down
ward revision of the tariff.
These are ten unanswerable reasons
why Governor Wilson should be elect
ed, and the downward revision of the
tariff should begin.

JUDICIOUS FARMING
IN WESTERN CANADA IT IB
CERTAIN.
The story of the nig Farmer In
Western Canada, and the Immense
proflta he has made In the growing of
grain, has been told and retold. He
lias been found In all parts of tho
previa Pan of Mnnltoba, Saskatchewan
and Alberta. Ills splendid farm build
ings have been pictured, his traction
outfits described and his princely sur
roundings, resultant of his bucccbb in
growing grain, hove been portrayed by
letter, press and camera. It certainly
Is not to hla discredit that by auo
cessfully applying common sense and
up to-date methods to the conditions
that climate, a good Boll, and splendid
market have placed at hand, that ha
has made the beat ubb of them. Ho Is
not too proud to admit that he came
to the country a very few yeara ago
handicapped aa to money, leaving be
hind him unpaid mortgages In bis of!
home land (which are now wiped out),
and he la still today tbe same good
hearted fellow he was In the days that
he had to work for a neighbor, while
tho neighbor broke tho land on hi
homeatead, which' went to make up tb
settlement duties.
Then, there, too, Is the fanner and

Hut there Is the smaller farmer, th
man who has not made sufficient Id
