PROTECTION STILLTHE CRY Radical Tariff Revisionists Oft Reminded That a Return of Soup House Days Is Not Wanted SENATOR PENROSE'S POSITION Mates in Few Crisp Sentences the Important Place Pennsylvania Oc cupies and Shows How Policy He Is Following Brings Greatest Good to Greatest Number. It can not fail to be gratifying to the great population nf Pennsj lvunia classed as wage-earners to note that the so-called "progressive Republi can" senators, led by Senator Dolll ver, of Iowa, have been meeting with repeated defeats of late In their ef forts to Incorporate In the Aldrlch bill now under consideration In the United States Senate, amendments which have a tendency to revise the tariff downward. The fundamental principle involved In tariff legislation Is to levy bucIi duties upon manufactured goods of all kinds and all materials that we, as a Nation, can produce, furnish and man ufacture, as will protect the Ameri can wage-earner, male and female, against the cheap pauper labor of Eu ropean countries; and, second, to se cure the markets of this country for the products of the farms and manu factories of the country. The com merce and markets of this country are worth more to the fanners and manu facturers of the United States than several hundred times that of thf" other markets of the world. It has been wisely and truly stated by the Keystone Gazette of Dellefonte that those who advocate a revision of the tariff downward are strongly tinctured with free trade theories, and are governed by the idea that the question of the tariff is a local Issue only. A tariff without being domi nated by the principle of protection Is a direct blow at the wage-earners of the country, and Is an attempt to reduce the American wage-earners to the same level and condition of the wage-earners and serfs of European countries. This cannot be done with out endangering the stability and best Interest of the Nation. In this country the wage-earner constitute the majority of the sov ereigns of the land. They vote, nnd at the polls exercise a power equal to that of any other citizen in the land. In the European countries they have practically no voice In the con trol of their governments. This coun try will only be strong and capabl? and stable to the extent that its sov ereign power, which is the people, Is Intelligent, thrifty, patriotic nnd loyal to Its Institutions. To undertake to legislate with a view of enforcing idleness, poverty and wretchedness upon a majority of the people who constitute the sov ereign power of the land means to weaken that power and to Invite dis eirPA. PA- content that will seriously affect the stability of the government and Ui country. Continuing, the Keystone Gazette says: "What will It profit the farmer or the manufacturer If the wage-earners are enforced to be Idle, or to work at wages that are practically starva tion for an American clUxen? If wages are not earned the power of consumption Is reduced as wU as tho.jujeans of purchasing the products of the farm at fair prices, as well as the products of the mills and manu factories. "This country had an experience of a revision of tariff downwards under the Wilson tariff bill of 1S93. under the second Cleveland administration. What was the condition of things then? The farmers had no market for the stock or products; the mills and manufactories were largely out of business and Idle because there was no home or foreign market for their products. "The country does not want another four years' experience such as It had from 1893 to 1807 with Its reign of eoup houses, fifty-cent wheat and corn used for fuel. Then let the Senators and Congress drop the game of poll tics and legislate on the tariff ques tion on the broad plane of protection to American Industry and especially to the American wage-earners, men and women, and seek to elevate and improve the sovereigns of this coun try so as to Insure Its continued prosperity and Its stability as a free republic, and the perpetuation of our free institutions, seeking to elevate the standard of citizenship and better the condition of all the people." The Immensity to which the tar I IT question has grown at home may be estimated by comparison with the three greatest manufacturing coun tries on the globe. In 1900 the value of production in the United States equaled that of the United Kingdom, Germany and France together. Ig this enormous aggregate Pennsylvania in 1903 represented about one-seventh of the value of the entire United States. Setting nside New York which stands aboul equal with Penn sylvania, all other States are far In arrears, most of them practically not In sight. Senator Penrose, always mindful of the aln.urit Inconceivable importance of the tariff to the people and Inter ests of Pennsylvania, has all the time during this eiu.i i:.,on been watch' Ing with closest atlention every move in amendment and debate. lie favors what the people of Pennsylvania want and proposes to exert every ef fort to gee that they get It, not by speech-making but by results. By way of comment, however, with respect to the relation of Pennsylvania to me chanical industries In general and as affected by tariff legislation, Senator Penrose recently delivered a speech in which he said: "The first Importance of Pennsyl vania in mechanical Industries in the United States, in the world, in fact. Is due not only to natural advantages but to the enterprise and energy of her per, pie, who are making the most of them. In the canvass of establishments un der tho factory system In 1905, which does not include neighborhood Indus tries and hand trades, Pennsylvania reported 52,185 establishments, or nearly one-fourth the total for the United States. The amount of capi tal employed was but four million OFFICERS. A. Wayne Cook, President. William Smearbaugh, Vice President. A. B. Kelly, Cashier. J. II. Kelly, Assistant Cashier. DIllECTOIIN. A.

The amount of wages paid was three hun dred und sixty-eight million dollars. The wage-earners numbered nearly 800,000 nnd the value of products was elope to two billion dollars. With such homo figures before us It Is not necersary to spend time arguing about the tariff. I believe In protection In every form, not only to sustain our own Industries, but to protect our own people In earnlrg the beat wnges the legitimate profits of manufacturers will afford. "Localities having comparatively lit tle at stake nnd, as they Imagine, noth ing to lose, forcet that the tariff Is and always has been since the second bill enacted by the first Congress of tho United States n national measure. Their prosperity is due to the fact that rates are fixed with reference to lntere?t and revenue of the whole country and not part of It. The na tional wealth and high prices for the products of our farms is due to the great development of otir manufac tures which create demand beyond the narrow limits of the household Without manufacturing industries and their army of wage-earners and de pendent Individuals and occupations, the products of the farm would have mall demand. To Pennsylvania this means a great deal, as the aggregate production in 1907 of the principal cereal crops was greater In that State than In any New England, Middle, South Atlantic or Gulf State except Texas. Without a protective tariff the products of the agricultural States would be a drug on the market. "For such substantial reasons . I favor a continuance of a strong policy of protection and support It In the Senate bill where it answers that pur pose, or by amendment, as In hosiery or any other item, when necessary to give strength to such Interests either In production or conservation of the wage-earners."
