" Senator Allison, of Iowa, who was recently in Washington, was! inter viewed by a reporter of the Post on various . matters political, and among other things spoke of the tariff question and the Trusts as connected with that Question, but ; didn't think there was much in Mr. Babcock's contention for a reduc tion of the tariff on trust-controlled articles, when the trusts sell to for" eigners for a lower price than they demand and get from home custom ers. Mr. Babcock's contention, " he said, is not new, for it had already been before Congress. Like nearly all the Republican leaders he wishes to dodge the tariff question and for that reason' will, doubtless, endeavor .J$x placate the advocates of tariff re duction with the reciprocity scheme, the thinnest kind of a fake. To do this they, must either cajole or bluff Babcock, who feels -and knows that he has popular sentiment with him in his proposed opposition to - the Trusts and in his plan for curbing them and destroying the monopoly which thev now have. Senator w Allison admitf this but he trims and dodges in a manner more in keeping with the tricky partisan than .with the Senator who stands well with the country and has the reputation of being patriotic and honest. In speaking of .the Babcock movement he, said: j- . - - . 'The House must take the initiative in such matters, and if the House does not act, the Senate will not be called upon to even consider the question. It is not worth while now to discuss what the Senate will do wnen we may not have the matter before us. lean understand that popular sentiment will indorse the proposition that American manufacturers should not sell at lower prices abroad the products which they sell to the American peo ple at a higher price. But this ques tion is not a new one. Some years ago, upon the motion of Senator Vest, we had an investigation of this assertion. He quoted the prices at which agricult ural implements were sold in Buenos Ayres to proye that the people of the Argentine Republic were getting those implements at a lower rate than the American farmers paid. We found that it was true that the whole sale dealer in Buenos Ayres did pay less for plows . and harvesters than was charged in this country, but we also found that he had to bear the cost of distribution, so that by the time the machines passed through two or three hands and freight was paid, the individual consumer paid , as much as the American farmer. The manufacturers did. nothing but ship the goods to Buenos Ayres, so that the expense was very light. "If this tariff matter comes before the 8enate, we will have to go over the matter very carefully and see whether Mr. Babcock's plan will correct the evil which he seeks to remedy. I do not think it is a question to be settled - off-hand, but I also do not think that the tariff has as much to do . with the trusts as Mr. Babcock supposes." When the McKinley tariff was under discussion in the Senate and it was asserted that protection was necessary to enable our manufac turers to compete with the manu facturers in Europe, who had the advantage of "cheap labor," the Democratic opponents of that meas ure disputed this, and asserted as ground for the dispute that our manufacturers were competing with foreign .manufacturers, and not only1 doing that but were selling their exports cheaper in foreign countries than they were selling goods at home. This was boldly denied, but Senator Vest put ' a quietus on the denials by produc ing price currents showing the jprices charged in several South i American countries in contrast with the prices charged at home , not for plows and harvesters, as Sen ator Allison says, but for every thing in the machinery and hard ware line, and for other things out side of hardware. They had to crawfish out of it when caught by saying that these shipments were either surplus or out of date stock, not salable in this country and of which our manufacturers were glad to get rid at any price. Of course -this was a trumped up fraud, for there are no styles in agricultural machinery, implements or picks, or shovels or axes. Our manufac turers do not make out-of-date ar I tides of this kind, which would not 'find ready sale in this country and everybody knew that when ttiese protectionist apologists tried to play that thin fraud. They first tried bolddenial and when caught and .estopped pn that line then they had recourse to-subterfuge and lying. They "investigated' and t found that it was true that our manufac turers did sell in Buenos Ayres (and also other South and Central American; countries) plows and har vesters (and numerous other things) for less money than they sold the same articles at home, but that didn't 'do the farmers of those coun tries any good, for by the time these things passed through the hands of tie middlemen the farmers had to pay about as mueh f or them as our farmers have. V - - What - an ihgeneous subterfuge this is. It isn't a question as to what the South American fanner has to pay for his plow or harvester, but . the price which the American , exporter charges the dealer to whom he sells. It isn't a Question of retail ;. Prices at all, but of wholesale prices. evconntixit of people who are f(0- opposed :ttUi Trust -protection is ! kat if our manufacturers can afford "XM'KonJp and sell to foreign handlers of their goods at a figure sufficient to induce them to ships and culti vate : that trade they ought to be able and willing to sell to men who handle their goods at hom e at as low a price. That is the contention, not what the retail buyer has t9 pay for a plow or harvester, a spade, a pick or ax. ' What our manufacturers were do ing in South ana Central American countries then they are now doing in European countries and in Euro pean colonies, where they are sell ing millions of dollars worth annu ally of machinery and implements ranging all the way from railroad locomotives to tack hammers, in the sale of which they compete directly with European manufacturers, with no middlemen coming in. The con tention is not confined, ' as Senator Allison would make it appear, to Buenos Ayres, or to plows' and har vesters, but extends to every coun try in which the Trusts do business, and that means the world, and to everything they deal in and that means the whole line of exportable manufactures. THE FLAG AND OUR SHIPS. Mr. Search, who was one of the speakers at the meeting of the Na tional Association of Manufacturers at Detroit, made a plea for ship subsidies, ad among other things said: The situation has been confused somewhat by the recent transfer of vast British shipping Interests to American ownership; but those whose see in this incident any evidence of American ability to conduct ocean carrying trade without Governmental aid have only a clouded view of the facts. American ownership of foreign built vessels sailing under flags other than our own does not in any sense constitute American shipping any more than the investment of English capital, in the securities of our rail roads makes oua transportation lines jtsntisn enterprises, bo long as the ships .that carry our .goods to and fro across the ocean sail under foreign flags our merchants, our manufacturers, our farmers and our miners will fall to enjoy the advan tages that would accrue from the ex istence of a great fleet of steamships that are American in all that the term implies. Let no friend of our merchant shipping be misled into the belief that the investment of American capital in British steamship lines is a step to ward the realization of those hopes which center in the development of our merchant shipping." . The fact that Americans have in vested millions of dollars in British ships is proof that they believe they can run them profitably under the British flag. Mr. Search substan tially asserts that they could not do this under the American flag, and that until they fly the American flag they" are not American ships, the latter of which statements is very true. He seems to attach much importance to carrying the flag. If it be true that they could not run these ships profitably under the AmericanQag then there must be something in our marine laws to prevent this, and the question might be asked why are not those laws so amended as to let these purchased ships carry the American flag and compete with the ship owners who sail under foreign flags? We com pete with foreigners in all the manu facturing industries, can compete with them in the building of ships, and if we cannot compete with them as asserted, in the sea trans portation, business it must be on ac count of the restrictive and out-of-date legislation whice handicaps them. Germany, England, France, ' Russiaj. Japan, and, as far as we know, every other mari time nation but this permits its citizens to buy vessels in other countries and sail them under their own flags, and these vessels become a part of the merchant marines of hose countries, but Americans might own a thousand ships run into and out of our'ports, but not one of them, as Mr. Search says, could be considered part of ourfner chant marine, when every ojpe of would be if the shipping lawa were so amended as to permit these pur chasers of foreigh ships fly the American flag. " They profess an arden desire for merchant marine, say we lose millions a year by not having it and yet obstinately refuse to remove the obstacles- to getting it and getting it quickly. The trouble is that interr ested parties want to make the Gov ernment of -the United States tax the people to help them pay the ex penses of running their ships and make larger profits. If . what they say be true about the inability of American ' ships under American laws to compete with European ships, then the subsidies must be per petual or at least continue so long' as these handicapping laws are on the statute books. OIL VS. COAL: . . 'i It is "said that the Alabama soft coal miners are already beginning to feel the effects of the oil discov eries in Texas. Railroads and others who have been using large quanti ties of coal for fuel now decline to make" contracts for the year's sup ply as they had been in the habit of doing, contemplating using the Texas oil instead of .coal,' which it is said., will not only, be much cheaper but preferable1 in - several other ways. Some of the principal railroads 1 down in that section are changing .their furnaces to Use oil, and, of ."course, if , the change be satisfactory ..to them the new . fuel will be adopted by. the . railroads generally in that section, and. by manufactories where the oil can be delivered- f y ' v..." ; : ' It seems, also, that arrangements The old proverb; To be at; peace prepare for war," is the secret of the larger part of life's successes, whether of nations or individuals. The difference between ,the healthy, happy mother who has healthy children to nurse and nourish, and -the weak,: nervous mother, with a weakling child, is mostly a difference of preparation. The great preparative for motherhood is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It tranqnilizea. the nerves, encourages the aooetite and induces refreshinsr sleep. It gives the mother strength to give her child. It imparts elasticity afM strength to the organs of maternity so that the baby's advent is practically painless. I take pleasure in writing: you to let yon know about your ' Favorite Prescription,' says 111., Box 367. "My wife had been sick nearly all her life, and after trying: everything: I ould tninK 01 1 maae np. my mina 10 Try - ravonic Prescription.' I sent to Chicago and got six bottles, which my wife took, a tablespoon f ul mree times a aay, untu tne DaDy came. ne felt better after taking the first bottle, and when baby was born he weighed nine and a half pounds. To-day he ia six months old and weighs twenty-two pounds. He is as good a child as any one could wish.' The doctor say he is as healthy as any baby could be, and also the doctor says your ' Favorite Prescription ' was the cause or such a healthy baby. -1 felt I owed yon this much for the good yon did my wife and. myself. I hope you will mention this to others who may be in need of such help, and you may refer them to me, as I would be glad to tell of the good of such a valuable medicine. " Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser, in paper covers, is sent free on receipt of 21 one -cent stamps to pay expense of mailing only. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Btiffalo, N. Y. are being made to ship this oil 0 9 North for use on the lake steamers; so that other mines, besides the Alabama mines, will be affected by it. ; This is bad for the coal miners, but it is good for the owners of the oil wells, for the railroads and fac tories, and for the public generally, because it will cheapen coal and lessen the power of the combina tions that control the mines. As the demand decreases there .will be more coal for domestic uses, and the prices will in all probability be lower. Another illustration of the saying that it is an ill wind that blows no good. The Mayor of Emporia, Kansas, seems to be apprehensive of a sui cide epidemic in his town, and be lieving that suicides are frequently the result of reading abont them in the papers, has forbidden the pa pers of his town to mention them. His efforts to prevent people from taking the shortest route out of Em-, poria, are of course very commend able, but in as much as there is no law prohibiting noticing cases of suicide, he seems to- be stretching his prerogative somewhat, and the probabilities are that the papers in his town will kick thereat. - BOOK NOTICES. c The July number of The Smart Set leads off with "Papa Bouchard," an entertaining story, followed by a num ber of sprightly papers, making a varied and very interesting list of con tents.
