TAFT AND TARIFF.
Free-traders and advocates of
tariff for revenue only will find
no crumbs of comfort in Secre
tary Taft's Columbus speech,
He declared himself unqualified
ly in favor of protection and ex-
Dressed his decided conviction
that it is a great factor in our in
dustrial prosperity. He defined
what the minimum of protection
should be. Disclaiming expert
knowledge he declared that some
of the schedules of a tariff law
enacted ttn or more years ago
doubtless needs revision, be
cause commercial and industrial
conditions, both at home and
abroad had greatly changed
within that time. Some products
named in the schedules of the
present trriff did not now have
enough while others had too
much protection. In support of
the need for tariff revision he
quoted freely from the report
of a committee, appointed by the
National Association of Mantr
f acturers of the United States, to
examine into the necessity for it.
He then proceeded to "show
that farmers as; well as manu
facturers are interested in main
taining the system of protection.
He declares that the tariff wiil
be revised by republicans and
protectionists and gives reasons
for not attempting it sooner nor
delaying it beyond the session of
congress - following the next
presidential election. He would
have the next National Republi
can convention pledge the party
to take up the work of revision
in that congress.
There was never any doubt
that Taft is a firm adherent to
the principle of protection. He
was known to favor tariff revis
ion, but while not clamorous for
immediate revision, there was
some curiosity felt as to the time
he would have congress under
take the work. His utterance
net only satisfies1 this curiosity
bi t they will be satisfactory to
all republicans and protectionists.
With the exception of a few men
republicans have nofbeen oppos
ed to revision. The loudest? cry
for it has been frqm the oppon
ents of protection reinforced by
those who hoped to turn public
thought from control of trusts
and corporations.
The views of Secretary Taft
are sound and practical and will
solidify the republican party on
the question of revision as well
as carry him well forward as an
acceptable successor of Mr.
Roosevelt as chief executive of
t'ie nation.
WILL BE E?FORCED.
Mr. J. D. Rockefeller raises a
bewailing cry over the effect the
Administration's policy respect
in.? law less corporations will have
upon "the investors, the widows,
the? orphans" who are stock
holders in the concerns. Such a
wail coming from John D. is
enough to pive Buster Brown's
Tiger coniplions.
Since when has Mr. Rocke
feller shown real solicitude for
the investors, widows and orph
ans, who have been induced by
the Rockfelbr, Paynes, Rogers,
Wardens and Harrimans of
frenzied finances to invest their
savings in these corporations? It
has ever been their efforts to
persuade the widows and orph
ans and small investors to en
trust the management of their
savings to the Rockefellers, Har
riman and Co., of high finance.
No one need be deceived by
this sympathy of Mr. Rocke
feller. It is simply feigned.
Had not "the extreme penalty
imposed on one corporation"
touched Standard oil Mr. Rocke-
feller's sympathies for these poor
widows and orphans' would have
remained, as always hefetofore,
an imaginary quantity less than
zero.
Rockefeller and his ilk predict!
a widespread and destructive
monetary, commercial and in
dustrial panic as the certain re
sult of the President's persist
ent efforts to bring lawless or
porations under just and h gal
restraint. They assert and it is
true, there is no lack of confidence
in the resources of the country,
no danger of foreign complica
tions, no failure of crops, no mis
trust of our monetary policy and
nothing in. our social condition
making for such a panic, but we
are iiearing "financial chaos."
Other men do not see the dang
er, and if they did would be un
able to find the cause of it. - It
is reserved for the astute John
D. clearly and unmistakably to
discern the cause. It is nothing
"but a lack of confidence in this
Administration."
Who lacks confidence in this
Administration? Mr. Rockefeller
would have us believe all the
wise, patriotic and trustworthy
men in the nation have no con
fidence in the President. He is
wrong, studiously wrong:. Not
since the -days of Lincoln has
there been a president in whom
the mass of the people, in all
sections and of every condition
place such unbounded confidence
as they repose in iheodore
Roosevelt.
It is quite possible Mr. Rocke
feller and men of his stripe
might raise a financial hurricane.
They apparently
would create
one if it would force
the Ad
ministration to stay its hand, but
they could hardly create "finan
cial chaos." If enforcing the
laws against predatory corpora
tions and trusts and in the inter
ests of all the people will cause
such "chaos," better have it
come now, for the country was
never better prepared to endure
it.
The president does not shrink
from his duty. The laws will be
enforced.
