Cannot be done.
It is not practicable to arrange a tariff which
shall take the protection off goods made by a
combination and keep it on the same goods
made by an individial. Yoa cannot prostrate
A, B and C, who operate in a combination, and
leave D, who is an individual manufacturer, un
affected. More-over, as very large sums of
money are loaned to Combinations, anything
that prostrates them must seriously affect bank
ing capital, to the great loss or inconvenience of
all lines of business. Trusts and combinations
can be regulated by a federal law and federal
supervision, as suggested by President Roosevelt.
They can be made to show their accounts, their
real monetary standing and responsibility, but
they cannot be destroyed if ' we remember the
change, of the name or even in some degree of
method will not change the thing itself.
If half the time given by speakers and writers
to advocacy of destroying the trusts vere de
voted to formulating a practicable scheme of
regulating them, there would be an appreciable
gain for the country in increased public realiza
tion that the trust question can be dealt with
effectively only by dealing with it scpcratcly.
Harding Bargain Counter
Secretary Shaw is right. The tariff changes
found desirable should be made by the friends of
American industry, and never by the enemies of
the protective system.

tively that no (;R.iil of that company
had .been present at the meeting.
A member of Mr. Mitchell's party
who declined to allow the use of his
name made the following statement:
"Anyone can readily understand that

Letter to Michael Blouch.
MiuDUtBi Bii, Penn'a.
Pear Sir: Most painters insist
that lead and oil is good for three
years; but they also insist that it
needs going over again in three
years. It is as much as to say' it's
a good job of paint that lasts three
years.
Which is true; and a better that
lasts six years. Lead and oil lasts
three; Dcvoe lead and zinc lasts six.
When a paint begins to let in
water, then is the time to repaint.
It may be one year; it may be ten.
Lead and oil lasts three, if well put
on; lead and zinc lasts six if ground
together and well put on. But
painters are better acquainted with
lend than with zinc. Zinc is new
er. Devoe lead and zinc is the prop
er mixture, ground ia oil by ma
chinery; same proportions as used
by the U. S. Government.
Yours truly,
37 F. W. Devoe & Co.
