The free trade organs of the "Cnlted State chanre protectionists with pa. ternalisra. They clamor for thi applica tion t the moxtn that "guvernraent shall do no thine for the people which the people can do for themeMTea." Th'y point to England as proof that Individual liberty la tha best and the only means Indeed by which tha greatest good can be secured for the greatest number. Ambassador Bayard astonished a British audience recently by a diatribe atralnat his own country for tolerating protection In any form. Tha most obnoxious form of protection, according to American tree trade organs. Is what Mr. Bayard and they call "state soclaism." State socialism Is diversion at ralbllc money to class purposes. Great Britain Is held up to us as a witness against state socialism and a aaonument of the benefits of fre? trade. la fact, there is no other country in the world in which protection In the fonn of state socialism is carried to such u- Under British free trade subsidies are paid to ships to open up new roads to British commerce, the subsidy being scarcely disguised under the name ot generous mail contract. Under British free trad; protection has been cotossaily applied in the form ot enforced reductions of rents by landlords to tenants; in farmers "light railways; Id the compulsory remission of arrears, and tn compulsory arbitration by which freedom of contract, a constitutional boast of Great Britain, baa bean largely nullified in a great part of the United lflngd'oTn. TCnder British free traie ihe most ob noxious form of protection, state social ism, has been rampant. State moniy has betn given outright in various forms and on divers pretexts to T.sny private or class interests. Stat morey has also been lent below market rates to various class interests, notably to acrlcultural landlords under one st of laws and to agricultural tenants under another. TTnder Eiitlsh frfe trade protection In Ihe form of state socialism hat Ven gradually abolishing private corporate properties to be operated by th' state. TCnder British fr?e trade class legislation has gone to the length of using public revenjes (o Improve homes for portions of the people as well ts to own local markets for classes o! venders. streM railwa-rs for other rlasses who cannot afford private vehicles, electric light rlants as well as telegraphs and tole phc'tic systems. The latest protective proposal offer:d In G et Britain ts the lory Chamber lain's pensions for old ape and tury Bal four's scheme for lending men money to buy houses with. Mr. Bayard might have found more acute state socialism nuder his eyes in Crest Britain than the prottlve polity of the Republican party ever contemplat ed Ip the United States. Animosity to the Republican masses of hli American fcllom countrymen blinded a vi.iloi never wide in any direction. American protection, unlike British free trade, which Is reeking with state and other socialism, is rational because It seeks to build up a nation, not classes. It Is patriotic, therefore, not paternalls ' tic, as British free trade is. The American p4ople discriminate be tween false and true protection, anj will mak? this discrimination Into law In a conservative way as soon as congress shall once more represent the inteillBenc! and wisdom of the country. , From time to time suxestlons havp been brought forward for the creation of a department of commerce and manu- factures, and criticism of the plan In Its more general bearings meets with som difficulty, in view of the existence of the departments of agriculture and labor, the former of which was not long ago raised to cabinet rank. The latest proposition of this kind Is found in a bill Introduced by Senator Fryis. of Maine,, which pro- viris for the .transfer to the department ""' ' from flie tresumry if the llfe-savlr.g serv- . ice, the lighthouse board, ths marine " hospital servient the bureau of steamboat . 4 inspection, the bureau of navigation, th? ; 'toast and fodetlc survey, and the bu- reaa of statistios with the bureau of sfiaistlos of the ute d(partment, the ' ei bureaus of statistics tu be consoll ' ' i.i1 Into one. The bill also provides . for the transfer oi the consular service f frotr. the Jutisdloiion of the state de , . "' rarttnont to th proposed new dpart- , t !it, and gh w the department general . Jurisdiction over the foreign and Internal SMiiret pt-Vfr ttnited Stales, except .

I States at present entoys of Interior lines of com munication. N. Y. lltrald. The true lntirs of ihe commercial world Imperatively demand lhat control of the Kreil waterways of ihe wotld should be held for mankind, and that no country should have tho hurtful pre dominance over them, to Ihe inj'iry of others, or the selfish use of them. tVr that reason, while no country m the world could have a better right lo r clislve control of the Nicaragua canal than the I'nlted States, It would he still better it the canal, like all other aster wars, and all tchvraph and cable tin, should be Internationally neutralised. That would be a rational and honest way of dealing with a difficult problem, and that should be the aim of every statesman. We believe it could be brought about, too, and the whole world would be the gainer and the cause ot peace much advanced thereby. The claims of the trainer of th Wil son bill that they were going to open the markets of the world to Ameri can products do not Seem to have been very well founded. besides .hut ting oft an Immense market that had been created by the reciprocal treaties ot Central and South America, the im ports of foreign manufacturers continue to be as large aa ecr. One of their arguments was that American clothing would And a market in Europe. A re oent report from Claude Meeker, VniteJ States consul at Bradfoid, England, dis closes tha fact thai Aemrican goods of excellent workmanship sad drslgu have been rejected from that markt because they could not compete with the viry cheap goods made in England. A suit of clothes, whose New York price was 11. li, had to compel with the same kind of suit in England sold at 73 cenu. The tact is becoming apparent that such disreputable political merchants ss Piatt, Qua- and Clarkon are doing oil in their power to stem the ruing tide ot McKinley sentiment, and that they hope to accomplish this end by getting control ot several state delegations through the agency of favorite sons. The compre hension of this fact has aroused strong opposition among the people to the pol icy ot "wasting compliments on favorite sons." The plan proposed In several state Is to have their delegatis vote for their favorite son first and then go to the popular choice, but the people are now demanding that this plan be re versed that the delegates be required to vcte first for the man the people want, and then, if he fails, to do their schem ing for favorite sons afterward. The expulsion from Cuba of Elbert Rappleye, the well known correspondent of the New York Mall and Express, Is prima facie evidence that th Spanish government has much to conceal from the world at large of Its operations in the Island. Mr. Rappleye Is noted for his truthfulness and Intrepidity, and was probably giving the facts as they ar--. The last issue at hand of the Mall and Express contains a two-column dispatch from Mr. Rappleye dated Havana. March H and contains some statements of the condition of affairs very different from the ordinary telegrams which are passed by the Spanish authorities. The Mall's correspondent has certainly achieved a refutation even If he has been snt home. It would seem that it would be profit able for Astorlans to cultivate th ac quaintance of such people as M. Ke llers, the French packer of fish who was here Wednesday, and who has the capital and business experience to operate a packing bouse here in a new field to As toria of the fishing Industry. We have so far paid attention only to the salmon, but the river Is full of other fine fish which are of first-class packing quality.
