EMBARRASSED PROTECTIONI8T8.
The* true protcctlonlnt spirit was
exposed and put to the blush In the
Committee on Way* and Means, Just
now ongageii In framing a hill to pro*
ted American Industries,' when some
body called attention to tho fact that
the legend "Made In Great Britain"
feppeam on tho towels purchased tor
the uee of tho members of tho commit*
t<«b Chairman Payne Is reported 'to
have been visibly embarrassed when
ffi# attention was directed to the dr-
cumstanco that his committee had dis
criminated against nn American In
dustry by putt hnslng foreign towels.
Representative DalzHI, nnother high
priest of protection, turned red In the
C*>o and refused to make any com
ment nrhen he was questioned about
tho damning foreign towels.
But tho circumstance provoked some
unofficial and Independent Investiga
tion on the spot nnd a Republican
member of the committee who fnvora
revision of the tariff downwnrd, di
rected the attention of the newspaper
men present to tho bottoms of tho
chairs In which they were sitting. An
examination of theso clmlrn disclosed
that they are labelled, In large printed
letters, "Vienna. Austria."
The news report of tho Incident fur-
thoi) states that, "as a matter or fact,
many of the furnishings In the Ways
andi Means Committee's room are Im
ported. When tho gypsum men were
malting tliolr flea for protection on
their products they called attention to
tho fact that the plaster used on the
walls of tho committee room iwns
manufactured from gypsum Imported
from Nova Root la.
"Champ Clark and his Democratic
Colleagues laughed gleefully when It
wo* brought to tliolr attention that
tlm advocates of tho protective policy
who. liavo been clamoring for m homo
taaoket for Amcrlciin products went
Abroad for their purchase | n fitting out
Inrtdqunrters of tho tariff committee
of tho House. They recalled that when
cloven years ago. Mr. Dlngley was
making a speech In tho House nnd*
pointing out the advantages that would
•ocruc to Atnorlcnn Industry under Ms
tarUf bill. Rcprcsentattvo Jerry Simp,
son, of Kansas, turned the tables on the
Maine Congressman by calling the at
tention of the House to the fact that
the lining of Mr. Dlnglcy'* silk hat
bac» the mark of g London maker."
tiucli Incidents go to show that they
tfc not take the smallest care or pre
caution against exposure) of the ab
surdity of their position.
THE BREAD LINE.
The "bread lino" In tho Bowery
Mission of New York forms about
midnight and from l o'clock until 3
a. m. about fifteen hundred hungry
men on 'nn average are nightly given
hot coffee and sandwiches.
On Bunday night, or rather on Mon.
day morning, ex-Judge K. H. Oary,
chairman of tho flteel Trust, went
with a party to see this startling spec
tacle, having previously made ar
rangements with Rev. John O. Ilalll-
mond. superintendent of the mission.
His party Included Ills wife, two
other ladles. Henry Do Mar, a West
ern mine* owner, und several other
persons.
The account states that the charac
ter of the men In the "bread line,"
1,407 In nil. astonished theso prosper
ous observers. There was r.ot an In
toxicated man among them nor a pro
fessional beggar. They were deserv
ing men—men who could not get
work nnd had reached the end of
their resources. Judge Gary ques- j
A THING FOR LAUGHTER.
Tha futility of President Roosevelt's
methods are folly Illustrated In hU
latest special message to Congress, the
reading of which waa greeted with re
peated ripples of mirth and peals of
loughter In the two houses. The mes
sage was devoted to the persona! de
nunciation of the proprietor of a
newspaper which had printed stories
of the alleged Panama canal scandal* advertised to the ends of the earth!
and gravely urged upon the Congress
as "a high national duty to bring
to Justice this vllllfler of the
American people, this man who
wantonly and wickedly and with
out one shadow of justification
seeks to blacken the character of
reputablt* private citizens, and to con
vict the Government of his own coun
try In the eyes of the civilized world
of wrong-doing of the basest and foule
st kind."
This recommendation was addressed
to a body representing In Its entirety
frith tho "private citizens" and the
tloncd a score of them nnd they all i "Government of the country" more

wrote and banded a check to the su
perintendent of the mission. Tho
slxc of iho check was not made public,
hut It Is stated that the other mem
bers of the party contributed an ad
ditional sum of $4,000. It seems that
tho mission not only feeds tho hungry
nnd homeless at midnight but takes
ns many men ns possible from tbo
bread line, clothes them decently, nnd
pays their transportation to points In
the West where they cun obtain <work.
Of tho 2.000 sent West last year,, all
but twelve were true to tho trust.
The bread line, unhappily, 1s an old
story. What la new nnd of fresh In

tho tesrs of n good womnn. Mrs.
Gary's grief In tho presence of human
suffering opened tho hearts and the
purses of her friends nnd the results
may lead to lasting good, for who
knows how many deserving but des
perate men may not have thus been
saved from crime or suicide and given
back to tho ranks of self-respecting,
orderly nnd productive society?
* A QUEEN DESPOILED.
Kx-Quecn Lllluoknlnnl of Hawaii Is
•gain In Washington with a petition
to the United States Government for
compensation for her "crown lands"
which were confiscated after the
Americans seised the Islands. Whether
w*e hold that our Government robbed
an Independent people of their coun
try, or that • handful of American
American settlers who wanted to be
annexed Imd superior rights to tho
•Ixty-odJ thousand natives of the
Islands, It remains true that the
crown lands were practically If not
actually I.llluokalanl's property and
furnished the means by nvhtch she
lived. When they were confiscated,
therefore, she found herself not only
dettmmed. but beggared.
A Government that hat Just volun
tarily remitted millions to China.
Which could have been In the eyes of
nations both legally and honorably
held. Is too generous not to feel tluit
there Is something due this roughly-
ousted Queen whose royal rights were
acknowledged and supported by all
her people. Her skin Is dark, and her
prnplo were too w^nk to contend with
UwrJackets from American warships,
but* the principle Is the same as If she
had been the chosen head of n nation
of Kurope. Does I.llluokalanl remain
unheard because to pay for her lands
Would Involve the confession that our
Government no longer be!leve v In the
pnllte fiction that the handful or
American settlers were tho rightful
of Hawaii?
ELEMENTAL JUSTICE.
A dispatch from Union City, Tenn.,
where homespun-dud a mountaineers
havo gathered from the Rcdfont I-ako
region to witness thj* night-rider
trials, quotes "old Tom Johnson." who
live* near the mountain lake as fol
lows:
'it's like this honh. stranger.
God Ho put them ml hills up
tln-ali. An' He put some of us
pooh folks that He dldp't have no
room fob no whenh else up thcnli
too. An* then He saw that wc
couldn’t make u livin' farmin', so
lie ordered nil earthquake, an* the
earthquake left a big hole. Next
lie tilled tho hole with wntah nn*
put fish In It. Then He knew wo
could make a livin' between farm
in' on' llshln*. Hut along comes
rldt men, who don't have to make
no livin', an' they tell us all that
we must not fish In the lake any
mo' 'cause they owns the lake an'
the flab God put tlieah fob us. It
Jus' naturally ain't right, stran
ger; It ain't no Justice."
This Is a clumsy attempt to Imitate
to tho legislative body organized un
der a Constitution one of tho chief
principles of which Is the guarantee
of a free press as the bulwark of the
people's liberties nnd by one who has
abused the freedom of the pres* be
yond any other In the country. The
message spoke of the Government's
prosecuting officer ns having "under
consideration the form In which the
proceedings should be brought," ns If
It mas only a question of choosing a
process for prosecuting such r. case
In a country which does not recognise
the crime of Use majeste. The Pres
ident undertook to answer for and de
fend William Nelson Cromwell from
reflections on Mni concerning a mut
ter—the distribution of the amoney
paid for the French concessions—con
cerning which the President confess
edly knew nothing nnd In regard to
which jCVIlliam Nelson Cromwell who
did know* refused to answer when he
was repeatedly asked to do so In his
examination on the m-ltness stand un
der regularly authorised proceedings.
As for the newspaper the Presi
dent assails It la happy in realizing
the highest achievement the news-
papers'of Its class dream of and ex
citing the envy doubtless of all the
others.
Threatened with a libel eult? Good.
Threatened with a libel suit by the
President of the United States?
preccdented! Glorious! It will
Meantime, eerene In the assurance
of the good piece of business it has
achieved. It comes back at Mr. Roose
velt with both more dignity and more
force than the President has dis
played with this:
"No other living man ever so
grossly libeled the United States as
does this President who besmirches
Congress, bulldozes Judges, assails
the Integrity of courts, slanders
private citizens, who has shown
himself the most reckless, unscru
pulous demagogue whom the
American people ever trusted with
great power and authority."
Thus do nve come to the final. log
ical result when a President steps
down from his high office to bandy
words with every one who Invites It
and the country blushes, If Mush It
has left, and hangs its head In shntw*.
Why does not Mr. Roosevelt's
friends take charge of and restrain
him for the rest of his term?
PRESIDENTIAL POPULAR VOTE.
Tho analysis of the Presidential
popular vote shows that despite the
vast advantage of the party In power
£ an organization of officeholders and
*. pecuniarily interested grafters, pen-
loners nnd favored classes generally,
6.393.182 of the voters of the country
registered themselves In favor of en
trusting the Democratic party with
the control of government against
7,637,676 In favor of maintaining the
trenched party In power, a differ
ence of only 1,244,494.
Who can doubt hut that the free,
untrammelcd and unbought sentiment
of the country Is In favor of a change
of party administration In view of
such a result?
What reason Is there to despair of a
party or to question its usefulness
that can marshal such a splendid mi
nority In protest, under such circum
stances. against governmental abuse?
Who can doubt but that It Is due to
this potent expression of. the con-
conselence of the country that the
party In power is even now* showing
the rude speech of the* mountaineer. j infamy, or Wrong-doing, there Is noth-
but we see him clearly enough, ami lug to choose between a public servant

IMPROPER LANGUAGE.
Referring to the law enacted to re
strict the employment of the Presi-
dmt'a detectlvfe force known as tho
aercret service, the last annual mes
sage from the executive to Congress
said:
In Its present form the restric
tion operate* only to tho advan
tage of the criminal, of tho wrsur-
doer. The chief argument In fa
vor of the provision was that the
Congressmen did not themselves
wish to be investigated by secret
service men.
The Indignation openly expressed by
Congressmen Is not to be wondered
at. Irrespective of the merits of the
controversy over the law restricting
the secret eervlce, It should be plain
to even the most thoughtless that this
not proper language to be ad
dressed by the executive to a co
ordinate branch of the Government
But there are many no doubt who
think that **Teddy served 'em Just
right." merely because there are or
hare been Individual Congressmen of
doubtful reputation. The frequent
