PROTECTION OR FREE TRADE.
SMklng evidence of the benefits con
ferrfed by a pncrteicftllve tariff Is to be
found In the last Issue of the Journal
of the Royial BtaWatldail Society, of
England, whloh In an elaborate com par
toon of tine relative wealth of Great
Bi'IMn and France shows that, al
'though during the first orty years of
the present century England was far
richer as regards total wealth and more
than twice as rich In lndlVUuial wealth,
the balance Is now In favor of France,
This, too, nutWlthSdandilng the enor
, mouslossea Incurred in. connection with
the German war Indemnity, the Pans
ma IWawter, and the dewtrudtlon of the
vineyards by ttie phylloxera. In 1840 the
figures" stood at .$1,040 per Individual
for Great Britain, and $460 per Indl
vldual for France. Today the figure
are $1,240 for England, as against $1,290
per oapilta In Franco.
The conclusions to be drawn from
these data admit of no contradiction
During the first forty, yeans of th(
century the English farmer was pro
tected by the so -called Corn laws, whloh
have since been a'bollshtd; whereas the
tendency In France, during the last
three or four decades bias been heavily
to Inoreiase all dues on foreign bread
tuffs. Wanks to free trade, agrlcul
ture In Great Britain to constantly de-.
dining, while owing to her protective
tariff, that of Fran Is corortiantly, be.
coming more valuable. The superior
prosperity of the average cltlsen In
France, to his cousin across the Chan
tie! shows that the prices of food and
the cost of existence are not Increased
by tMit sort of protieotlon which Is ne
oeairy to keep the land In a proper
Wtute of cultivation,
Moreover, there Is an I m prolan po
litical side to this economic question.
England grows now so little of Its own
food that In case of war she would be
rwavlly 'handicapped by the necessity
of djimwing all her supplies of that kind
over sews patrolled by the enemy,
wthereas Fnanoe, thkinka to her protec
tive tariff, ta entirely Independent of all
foreign imports of grain.

The return of the Prlnoe of Wales
to England was endured with great
complacency by the people of London
The telegirame we have on the subject
are, however, confused. First, It
said, there was a large crowd outside
the staltilon to see the reception of His
Royial HlgnnHS, and the reception was
a small afflailr. Then the people did
take a good deal of Interest in the
prince, and the Tories, who meant
"Jingo" demoneltiratlon, did not do the
by Jingo business so m ich aa they
thought they would. It Is to be noted,
too, that the special performance
Wlales abroad is said to have been the
duTmaiUon of a close underdtianddng,
amounting almost to an allance, be
UWeon the Russian and British em
pircs. This Is highly Important If true,
but It mCght not be suddenly popular
In England, for the English have had
x generation of education, to the effect
ttot the greet bear of the North Is
bad beast.

purposo reaohed a total of $7,358,703; the
bill appropriates only $1,879,057. Surely
a reduction of 75 per cent Is not called

It will be neoe-xiry for rallrowd to

without too much experience would
think the elusive telegrum and the sub

put to greater use; and if solid money
