States Hasty Action, How
ever, He Discourages.
NEW YORK. Nov. 22. A notabe article
from Andrew Carnegie, dealing with the
tariff, will appear In the forthcoming
Iiecember number of the Century Maga
zine. The ironmaster takes the position
that "Infant Industries" no longer need
portection; that the steel and other in
dustries have now grown beyond the need
of tariff protection; that duties on lux
uries used by the rich should be main
tained, but that those on manufactured
articles should be reduced greatly or
abolished entirely when no longer needed.
Mr. Carnegie's article is entitled "My
Experience With and Views Upon the Tar
iff." He first reviews the tariff move
nnt diim to the present Dlngley law.
ri-4n number of anecdotes in which
he figured with the leaders of the var
ious periods. He adds:
Condition Greatly Changed.
"Much water has run under the bridges
alnea then. Many changes have occurrea
and hence many changes can Judiciously
w. . the tariff. There Is no doubt
about this, but on the other hand I have
been led to the conclusion mat conai
tlons have changed so greatly In the
Interval that the tariff should now be
viewed from a new standpoint."
The writer assi mes that a decided ma
jority vf voters are agreed:
First That it Is advisable for new coun
tries to encourage capital by protective
.lufles. when seen to be necessary to de
velop new Industries. "" -
Second That after full and exhaustive
trials. If success be not finally attained,
such protection should cease, except as
noted hereunder.
Third That should the experiment
Hand, protection becomes necessary and
should steadily but gradually be abol
ished, provided that the homo supply of
any article absolutely necessary for the
National safety shall not thereby be endangered.
Industries No Longer Infants.
Further. Mr. Carnegie aays:
We have already become by far the
greatest of all manufacturing nations,
dnr -infant industries' of the past have
reached maturity and. speaking general
ly, are now quite able to protect them
selves. The puling infant In the purse s
arms, that the congress in 171 nursed so
tenderly will appear next year before lis
guardian as the stalwart champion who
ha conquered In many fields, thus
proving himself worthy of the protection
bestowed upon him in Ms youth and fully
vindicating tlie protective policy pursued.
While the tariff aa a whole, even to
ly. has ceased to be primarily benefi
cial as a measure of protection. It has
become of vast importance from the
standpoint of revenue and it Is to this fea
ture I bespeak the special attention of
readers of all parties, for duties upon Im
ports, not for protection, but for needed
revenue, should not become a party ques
tion. Reasonable men of all rartles may
be expected to approve this plan of ob
taining revenues."
After g'ving tables showing that the
bulk of tariff duties are collected on lux
uries used by the rich. Mr. Carnegie says:
Rich, but Able to ray Taxes.
Thus does tlie American tariff. In
happy contrast to others, also exempt the
poor and heavily tax the rich. Just as
It should, for It is they who have the
blluy to pay as required by the highest
evwuiomlc authority."
He further says of tariff legislation:
"The next Congress dealing with the
tariff will probably be inclined at first
to reduce duties all around and perhaps
to abolish some, but Its first care should
be to maintain present duties, and even
In some cases increase them, upon all
articles as used exclusively by the rich,
and this not for protection, but for reve
nue not drawn from the workers, but
from the rich. Tiiat Is the first and prime
duty of Congress. We do not forget that
government expenditures have Increased
enormously in recent years and that ad
ditional revenue Is required: its second
duty Is to reduce duties principally on
manufactured articles and to abolish en
tirely those no longer needed.
Steel Cheapest In America.
"The writer has co-operated in mak
ing several reductions as steel manu
facturers beiame able to bear reduc
tions. Today they need no protection,
unles perhaps in some new specialties
unknown to the writer, because ttcel
is now produced cheapor here than
any here else, notwithstanding the
higher wages paid per man. Not a
ton of steel Is produced In the world
at as small an outlay for labor as In
our countrv. Our coke coal and Iron
ores are much cheaper, because more
easily obtained and transported, and

They ' carried these lights about with
them seeking the robber, and several
times shot at each othen when they
thought they had "flushed" the dare

CHANCE FOR YOUNGER MEN
Opposition to Bryan Lost Him
Several States.
BRILLIANT LIGHTS FEW
Democratic Governors Kccchtly
Elected Likely to Develop Into
Popular Idols Before Date of
Next Presidential Campaign.
BY HARRY J. PROWS.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington. Nov. 22. It the Democratic
party is to rid itself of Bryan It must
develop a new leader in the next four
years. This new. leader, to be success
ful, must be able te reunite the party,
for until the Democracy is again one
harmonious body It will achieve no
greater success than has come to it In
the last four campaigns.
There are Democrats In Congress who
might develop Into strong party leaders;
there are others recently elected Gov
ernors of their states who give much
promise, and still others who are not
particularly in the public eye. But there
Is not one among the number who is pre
eminently of such caliber as to justify
him In rising at the present time and
proclaiming himself the new leader of
the Democracy.
Party Disrupted.
The claim was made by several Bry
anites that the Democracy In the late
campaign was united. Such a claim was
absurd on Its face. Otherwise, what
would account for the election of a
handful of Democratic Governors In
states that cast their electoral votes for
Taft? It was disruption In the Demo
cratic party dissatisfaction with Bry
an, as much as anything else, that caused
these states, or some of them, to sup
port the Republican National ticket.
Nothing could be more absurd than to
assert that the Democracy of New Tork
State, for instance, was united In the
late campaign. It was as badly dis
rupted as it has been since the days of
Cleveland. The same situation is true
In other Eastern states, and even In the
South the party was far from united, as
evidenced by dwindling Democratic plu
ralities In states that have never cast a
Republican vote for President. There
is proof in abundance that the Democ
racy of today Is not united.
Losing Grip In South.
At a hasty glance It would seem that
the most promising men of the Democ
racy are not now In Congress. Glancing
over the membership of both bodies,
only two or 'three names "catch the eye,
and there is serious question If any
among them would till the bill unless
they develop wonderfully during the next
few years. Senator Culberson, of Texas,
and Senator Daniel, of "Virginia, were
both mentioned as possible nominees this
year, and either would have been ac
ceptable to a large element of the con
servative Democracy. But Culberson's
geographic location was urged against
him last Spring, and would be again:
the same also was true of Senator Dan
iel. Yet the time may come when the
Democratic party may make up Its mind
that it Is good politics to nominate a
Southern man for President. It was
shown at the recent election that the
Democracy, under Bryan's leadership, is
losing Its old-time grip on the South.
Two Promising Governor.
Over In the House there Is no Demo
crat who is a shining example. Perhaps
the most luminous Democratic member
of that body is Champ Clark, of Mis
souri, pre-destlned to become leader of
the minority. If the Democracy ever
wanted an honest, plain-spoken, though
somewhat crude man for Its nominee, it
would find such a tone In Clark; and.

AVild Scramble Ensues for Exits and
Mob Tumbles Out,, Pell
Mell to Get Away.
CHICAGO, Nov. 22. (Special.) After
two bull terriers had torn one another for
55 minutes and had been prevented from
rushing into the death grapple by the
lightweight champion. Battling Nelson,
trustees of the village of Burnham, with
a dozen armed deputies at their backs,
broke into the saloon in which the fight
was held. '
The 500 spectators jumped to their feet
and a wild rush for doors and windows
followed. Several shots were fired into
the air by the deputies, but they ccid
not stop the stampede. Though the fight
was on the second floor of the building,
scores of men did not hesitate to drop
from the windows, and one fugitive suf
fered a broken leg. He was helped into a
waiting buggy by companions and was
driven rapidly away. Other men at the
ringside, made up for the most part of
followers of the sport from Chicago,
formed flying wedges and charged the
trustees and deputies in approved foot
ball style.
Then began a helter skelter flight from
the village, some getting away in car
riages, a few In automobiles and a
regular army by foot.
The trustees and deputies, however,
managed to capture nine men, including
the proprietors of the saloon. W. C.
(Buck) McCormick and J. J. Doyle. They
were trundled Into a waiting patrol
wagon and taken to the West Hammond
police station.
POACHERS HEAVILY FINED

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 22. Convey
ing to the American Government the
gratitude of the Chinese people for the
remittance of a debt, amounting to
nearly $14,000,000,- Tang Sliao Yl, a
powerful figure In the affairs of the
Chinese Empire, arrived in San Fran
cisco today on the steamer Mongolia.
Thrice in the history of the oldest
nation has there arisen occasion for
the appointment of such a commission
as is domiciled tonight in the Fair
mont hotel, and never has a foreign
power" been so strc-ngly represented
through diplomatic channels during the
period of a crisis of world-wide import.
In his honor the dragon flag flew to
day from the mastheads of a score of
vessels in the bay, guns mounted on
the harbor front boomed out a salute,
and 'thousands of his countrymen, silk
robed or silk-hatted, thronged the deck
where his escort landed.
Learns of Empress' Death.
Not until the Mongolia dropped an
chor In the harbor did Tang Shao YI
and his staff learn that the Dowager
Empress of China was dead. In Hono
lulu the cable brought news of the
Emperor's death, but said nothing of
the dangerous illness .tJxat threatened
the end of the Empress' remarkable
career. It was only when Hsu Ping
Chen, the Consul-General at San Fran
cisco, boarded the steamer with a score
of cablegrams from the Far East that
the distinguished visitor was ac
quainted with the full extent of the
changes that had occurred since his
departure.
Even the habitual Oriental reserve
did not suffice to conceal his pertur
bation, and while dignitaries of the
state and government awaited his at
tention he scanned message after mes
sage, apparently unconscious of their
presence.
Mourning Spoils Banquets.
In accordance with the edict of
mourning, his entire party will remain
practically secluded during its stay
of three days in this city, and the
local Chinese colony's arrangements
for costly banquets and other forms
of entertainment have been canceled.
In all other respects, however, the
mission of the special embassy will be
fulfilled, and Tang Shao YI, with the
60 members of his retinue; will go di
rectly to Washington, where he will
remain until after the inauguration
of President-elect Taft-
Accompanylng the Ambassador is
Prince Tsal Fu, a youth of 21, a mem
ber of the royal family, a cousin of the
late Emperor, and himself the most
blue-blooded representative of his race
who has ever set foot on foreign soil.
While he bears the title of first secre
tary to the Embassy, his position is
merely honorary, and his journey
abroad, apart from its educational pur
poses, is intended as an additional rec
ognition of the obligation conveyed in
America's remittance of so large a por
tion of the Indemnity awarded for dam
ages sustained during the Boxer out
break. Other High Officials Arrive.

TALKS ABOUT MATRIMONY
Declares No Love Exists With
out Concordant Youth.
GIVES WARNING TO GIRLS
Tells Parents Daughter's .Marriage
to Gentile Is Less Indeair
able Than Marriage to Jew
AVitliuut Coucordant Youth.
CHICAGO. Nov. 22. (Special.) A
week ago, when Rabbi Emil G. Hlrsch
unexpectedly launched forth on a disser
tation on Intermarriage between Jews
and non-Jews, the bolt he shot from the
clear sky caught a congregation unpre
pared for the happening.
Today a crowd of young women of all
nationalities packed the pews and gal
leries of Sinai Temple, prepared and
eager to hear further the opinions of the
rabbi on the Intermarriage of races.
Dr. Hlrsch said several startling things,
one moment inveighing bitterly against
the orthodox Jewish form of religion,
then declaring that the marriage of a Jew
to a Gentile was preferable to the mar
riage of a reformed Jew to an orthodox
Jew, and adding as an afterthought that
he was not urging intermarriage, but
merely attempting in some degree to re
move the blight that several classes had
put on it.
"And Incidentally I wish to assure
you," he said, "that I am not attempting
to convert Sinai Temple's congregation
into a matrimonial agency."
Attacks Zionists.
Early in his sermon Dr. Hlrsch at
tacked the so-called nationalist Jew, com
monly known as the Zionist. -
"The American Jew is not a national
ist," he declared. "We do not wish to go
back to Palestine. I would be glad to go
there for a visit, and I assure you that I
would be glad to come away. I do not
care to be a political Jew.
"Our women are nationalists only to
the extent that their husbands are na
tionalists. Our American girls who marry
French Counts and no-accounts, as soon
as their precious husbands are purchased
for them, according to the French law
become French women."
Suddenly Dr. Hirsch turned from his
utterances against the so-called Jewish
nationalist feeling and took up the sub
ject that caused his women auditors to
sit suddenly forward.
Youth Must Be Concordant.
"When two persons are united In hte
holy bonds of matrimony," he said,
"there can be no bond of love without
concordant youth. Unless there Is this
youth there is no guarantee of happiness.
'You must look at life through the
same glasses as similar stages of life, so
as to father that unity of sentiment
which should exist.
"And where there is not concordant
youth, let me say that you will have
more trouble than if your daughter is
married to a Gentile. You girls out there
do not know what it means to marry the
so-called orthodox Jew.
"Let us give up this fiction that there
is a united Judaism today. The reformed
