peace it was. and for u time peace
treatie-s were signed almost as rap
idly tn the Department of State at

Now crops out in Bryan that curi-
i''us quality of rotation ?nanlfcsted in
;nany commonplace minds. His mind
reverts to the ideas of hjs youth.
Again he illuminates the political sky
with oj-atorical utterances on the tar-
id'. And, being constitutionally averse
to proKi'es.-vj he harks back to the are-
ument.s he used in beginning- his po
litical career about a quarter of a
t-entury ago.
“Now that the election is over,”
says he “the protected manufacturers
iire already resuminj; work. Some’
of them suspended operations or cut j
d; wn thtUr forces l^efore th«.» election, |
and they did it.under conditions which
left little doubt that they hoped, to
arouse opposition £o the new Larilf
law."
IIow familiar it all sounds, dating
bi-.ck as;it does to the paleozoic :ifre
Cl cai-iff discussion!
l)oes any sane man believe ihat u
manufacturer "who was mtiking money
would slop ali of his machinery as. a
p{*!iticai argument? Money is
being made .'^c easily under this ad-
rnim.-iitration as to encourage such iiv
