THE !LAN TO ENCOURAGE
SOUP HOUSES
Th
present lMidors of tho party
are slncore opponmts or pro
tectlonlam In all its form. America
cannot keep htr pcoplo and their ma
chinery buiy without world-wide trade :
and she cannot win world-wide trad;
without abandoning protectionism.
In All probability, tho eravest of all
His Issues to be determined
Is this: Shall tho country relapse Into
th- delusive policy misnamed protec
tion, or continue to advance toward a
tariff for revenue only? Charles W.
r.llot. In defense of Wilson.
TTNLK8S nil signs fall this great
'-' dividing Issue of protection versus
froo trade is likely to absorb tho atten
tion of tho political speakers for tho re
mainder of (the campaign. Republican
leaders were Baying last week th.it tho
Issues growing out of tho war, while Im
portant, were not thoso on which tho
election was to bo decided, and that pro
tection was the question which would
loom largo for the next fortnight.
The Democrat liavo been trying to
lildo their frcoTtrado sentiments. They
have been following the President's lead
In saying that tho Republicans wero so
hard put to It that they were compelled
to fall back on tbolr "outworn and thread
bare arguments" In support of a protec
tive tarlffw We liavo been told that wo
should support Mr, Wilson becauso ho
ha kept us out of war, because he can
make charming addresses, becauso he lias
tho courage to roycrso himself iwhen ho
discovers ho Is wrong, and because he
ha been able to lead Congress about at
If It were a tame poodle ready to Jump
through the circus hoop at his command.
But hardlj a whlspor has been hitherto
uttered about a tariff for rovonuo" and
tho unconstitutionality of the protective
policy.
Doctor Eliot has torn all this pretenso
asldo and has boldly proclaimed tho
primacy of the free trade Issue, Ho ad
mit that Mr, Wilson has made grievous
blunders In Mexico and In dealing with
tho railroad crisis. Yet in spite of theso
blunder ho would have us think that
Mr. Wl'son should be re-elected because
the Importance of destroying tho protec
tive tariff Is so great tfiat all other ques
tions must be regarded a secondary. He
would have us believe that the only vay
to keep our people employed and our
factories running Is to reduce tho duties
in tho Underwood law still further, to
ejilargs the freo list, and to open our
markets to tho products of tho rest
of the world. Ho Is only a little bdlder
than his follow Democrats In proclaim
ing his opinions. The rest of them agree
with him. Mr. WHion Is tho samo kind
of an academic theorist and Is committed
to the same economlo heresies that are
popular wltli men who, like Doctor Eliot,
have had.no business experience of a com
petltlvo sort.
If they have their way tho conditions
thatproduced business stagnation follow
ing the "passage of the Underwood law
will bo restored as soon as the war ends
and the wall of protection accidentally
reared around us Is removed. Indeed,
the probabilities are that the stagnation
would) bo worse because ot tho threat to
do away with every protective duty as
fast a possible.
It Is Inconceivable that the voters can
be deluded into approving any such de
structive doctrine. The workers who wero
idle or employed on part time two years
ago, before tho war prosperity began, are
not likely to bo attracted1 to the party
which promises to strike a still heavier
blow at American Industry If it Is re
turned t5 power.

THE GOMPERS BQOMERANG
UNION labor is called upon by Mr.
Gomper to cast its Independence to
tho winds once and for all and commit
Itself to the Democratic! party. The
American, Federation of Labor leaders,
In asking organized labor to vote taj
block for Wilson, nave bunded themselves
to the history of such movements In non

Once an association labels Itself as
Republican or Democratla it can exer
clso persuasion over neither Republicans
nor Democrats, The one party is made
frankly hostile, the other fears no threat
from men suro to, vote for Jt. It is
also a well-established fact In this He
publio that any bloalc vote IrrltateH -all
citizen not in that block. Men who
would vote the Democratic ticket, but
who happen to be suspicious of the mo
tive of labor lenders, will be estranged
by the Gomper call. The padded-oell
section of the "Democratic press under
stands this -t&ll In trying to show that
the hyphen vote Is for Hughes. It ex
pected that such support would prove a
boomerang The belief" that the organized

to Increase the salary of Hdward J. Cattell.

convlnco most of tho thousands who hao
enjoyed his eloquence and come urfder his
Infectious geniality that he dldn'f get at

amount.
Mr. Cattell Is Just one of the hardest
worked men to be found anywhere, nnd at
seventy years ofnge ho asks no odds, but
sets a pace for the best of tUem' among
tho youngej- men in years because Cattell
la as young In spirit and geniality ns any
body could be, and that Is tho only way
to reckon ages, at any rate. '
By all means, make -it $3000 1 You
couldn't find a voto In Philadelphia against

Philadelphia, October 21.
HYPNOTISM VS. MAGNETISM
To the rdlter 0 Oi nvenlng htdaer;
Sir Mr. John Elfreth Walking Is hu
morous caustic Wis "article on Mesmer
Is diverting, but nevr'heleB8 misleading.
Magnetism is not an Invention of the
modern scholars y it has been known for
all ages. Wa can find trace of its knowl
edge and of ltB use in every countrg nnd
every religion. Furthermore, It Is, undoubt
edly, that Which was the basis ot all deeds
and cure recognlxed years gone by under
the generic name of miracles, and which wo
find easier nowadays to simply deny.
The priests ot the apclent temples of
Egypt, the prleits of all myetto religions, ns
well as tho great imitators and the great
conquirors who have msde history, knew
or at least feuspected his foroe, and, ot
course, used It. Healers, thaumaturgl,
nronllets and all those who through centu
ries have left behind them an enigmatical
tnlst (and not excepting our sympatheto
Jlllty Bunday) used more or less directly,
with or without knowledge of cause, this
fsclnatlpg force which Doctor Mesraer has
slot Invented, .
But it Is to Poctor Mesmer that wo owe
the renovation of physiological magnetism,
'which avas called nt that time "animal
magnetism." and known today as "mes
merism." It Is hs who, In a few aphorisms
and propositions, exposed all the theory on
which he hasjbullt his fame and this science
of today. ..
Doctor Mesmer has been repeatedly re
proached, not only with hvlng invented
nothing, but with liavlng used the works ot
his predecessors to obtain an easy glory It
might be poifflble. but nevertheless we must
give" him credit for having cleaned magne
tism from a snjdley of Ineomprehenalble
oooult formula, from sfilm we take th
starting, point of tile, actual evolution of
magnetism: but w know tpat Mesmer, did
not even have tuo -honor of the nam., and
that Paracelsus, who was considered lnjils
time as the father of The.magietUm, gave
it that name. But Paraaeteus, thoug he
was a great savant, a flxu-clia physician,
one of th deepest and 'wast learned "pe.
eultlats," waa wrong la uniting ,h "pceult
scleBO." aueh a alehemy, astrology, etc..
with magnetlwi. Jle dd ijot apeclalUe.j a
Mesmer dW, and. He oould not tatablWi yn
tlvetloally a theory of the magnetism as the
former did. This l true that the n)olrn
"Hiaitn.tl8ta't start magnetlam, establUaad
m rational bais, torn Doctor Mesmer,
Dootor Wwnr. in hi Jlme, had lot of
Bartasaaa aM felwa,but also many d.

bfoduced from a particular force ema
nating from the organism, as It was claim
ed by the partisans of the magnetism, but
through tho Indirect Influence of the ope
rator on the brain of a more or lessl
sensitive subject, or then, through a
fatigue ot the nerves, resulting from a. sus
tained and prolonged attention.
JYom this started "Braidlsm," which
later on became hypnotism, which was
mode known In about 1880 through the emi
nent French physician and alienist Charcot,
who definitely established Its laws.
Consequently, when Mr. John E. Wat
kins states that Doctor Mesmer "gave to
tho world mesmerism, that mysterious force
now generally called hypnotism," It proves
that ho Is 'not very well nossesaed of tlia
.subject ho Is writing about.
Hypnotism differs from magnetism by
the manner of considering the phenomena
and by the difference of the process UBed.
Two utterly different schools are represent
ed by the hypnotlzers and the magnetlzers;
the hypnotlzers see in the phenomena, pro
duced by them only the effect of suggestion
and uto-suggestlon, taking as a basis the
moro or less great sensitiveness of the sub
jects. The msgnctlzera, on the other hand,
admit tho existence 6f a special force acting
upon the organism by Inhibition, whlfti Is,
for them, the real factor of the phenomena.
ilypnotlsm has received official recogni
tion by the very fact that In France the
practice of It Is strictly prohibited to any
one but physkclnns. Under therapeutlo

FREE TRADE IN LABOR
To the Edl(or of the Evening Ledger:
Sir I read the letter of Mr. Frazler and
big to say he Is rather sparing with the
truth when ha says the Underwood law Is
a free-trade measure. It simply lowered
the duty on some commodities, that's ait.
Furthermore, there never can be a free
trade tarlO, as the word tariff Is denned as
ixlng a duty on certain commodities, and
iree traae means the Importation of good
free of charge. Now the principal commodi
ties Imported free of charge' up to 1914
were undesirable alien labor and dyestuff.
Why dyes were left on the free list by the
Republicans who exacted a high tariff orf
every other foreign article can be best
.explained by tlyse. who used It The He
oubllcan party persistently advocates high
tariff on manufactured goods to prevent
being flooded wltht the foreign article, but
not a word as to- a tariff or head tax in
the same ratio as the manufacturer's tariff
lo prevent the American working people
being flooded with aliens, Blxty per cent ot
whom have no Idea of making this thel?
permanent home, live contented In the most
congested and Insanitary manner, expend
the least possible amount ot their earnings
and carry the remainder out ot the country.
Under our present grand Republican scheme
this class -do.in't pay the Government one
dollar for The privilege of competing jlth
our loyal American work people This
Is the class of high tariff that Mr. Hughes
says goes hand In hand with prosperity.
Now, no one know better than he-that
there la not a particle ot truth In that as
sertion, as I know from my personal, mid
experience It Is also a matter of his
tory that every panic or business depre.
tlon from 1873 to 1(11 originated under
Republican administration and high tariff
on lndur.tres and unrestricted Immigration.
Th 1S93 panlo under a Republican Cen
gresa and an exceptionally high tariff on
Iron virtually ajaVted In July.' 1US, at
Carnegie' Homestead mllU4y a strike and
