Protection's Historic Record
First a Colonial Policy, then Was Made National by the Congress of 1739
The textile industry of the United States is almost wholly the outgrowth of the Protective Tariff policy. Protection is not a modern device for the enrichment of great manufacturing corporations. It had its origin in economic needs, and is justified by a nation-wide industrial development. For centuries it had been the custom of the older nations to raise revenue and protect the home market by levying duties on imports from foreign countries.
The policy was approved by the enactments of early colonial legislatures. In 1640 the general court of Massachusetts, for the encouragement of manufactures, offered a bounty of 3 pence on every shilling worth of cotton, linen and woolen cloth; in 1645 it passed an order to encourage the establishment of sheep as a foundation for woolen manufacturing, and eleven years later, to develop facility in spinning, it was ordered that all hands not necessarily employed on other occasions, both women and boys and girls, should spin for 30 weeks every year three pounds per week of linen, cotton and wool. In 1667 Massachusetts adopted resolutions advising the people to purchase only home made goods. The assembly of Virginia enacted in 1662 a law offering 10 pounds of tobacco for every good wool or fur hat made in the colony, and Delaware in 1733 offered a prize of 40 shillings for the best hat manufactured in the lower counties. In 1751 the general able defenders and loyal advocates since the days of Lincoln. Presidential victories have been won on this issue, and with rare exceptions the congress of the United States has stood firmly for a protective tariff. McKinley and Roosevelt were elected in 1900 on a platform which renewed "our faith in the policy of protection to American labor." Their platform contained the claim often urged by our latter day protectionists that "by protecting the home market, competition has been stimulated and protection cheapened."
It is particularly true of the textile industry of the United States that the party of protection has stimulated a keen domestic competition, and that the manufacture of textiles is free from trust control. Engaged in the manufacture of cotton goods are 1324 establishments; in wool and worsted, 985; in silk, 852. The combined textile industry had a capital in 1909 of $1,709,265,000. It gave employment to 861,621 wage-earners and distributed in annual wages over $243,000,000.
WOMAN'S STRANGE STORY
Mrs. Northam Accuses Attorney's Wife of Stabbing Her
Mrs. Leotia Northam, who filed suit for divorce against Colonel Bob Northam several months ago, is in a Los Angeles hospital, the victim, she declares; of an attack upon her Monday afternoon by three women, one of
women and boys and girls, should spin for 30 weeks every year three pounds per week of linen, cotton and wool. In 1667 Massachusetts adopted resolutions advising the people to purchase only home made goods. The assembly of Virginia enacted in 1662 a law offering 10 pounds of tobacco for every good wool or fur hat made in the colony, and Delaware in 1733 offered a prize of 40 shillings for the best hat manufactured in the lower counties. In 1751 the general assembly of Rhode Island granted a bounty of one-third its appraised value for cloth manufactured from wool or flax. As a result of these efforts the household manufacture of cotton, linen and woolen goods developed o such an extent that practically the entire needs of the population for cloth for ordinary wear were supplied by home manufacture.
It is not surprising that the members of the first American congress, after the adoption of the constitution, embodied the protective policy in the first tariff law which they enacted, a law which was signed by George Washington on the fourth of July, 1789. The preamble of the first protective tariff law of the United States declared that "Whereas it is necessary for the support of government, for the discharge of the debts of the United States, and the encouragement and protection of manufactures, that duties be laid on goods, wares and merchandise imported: Be it enacted," etc. Washington was thoroughly in accord with the protective policy. In his first message to congress he said: "The safety and interests of the people require that they should promote such manufactures as tend to render them independent of others for essentials." In his second message he added: "Congress has repeatedly, and not without success, directed their attention to the encouragement of manufactures. The object is of too much consequence not to insure a continuance of their efforts in every way which shall appear eligible."
Protection sentiment was so strong among the founders of our government that when it was proposed to reduce tariff duties in 1811, President Jefferson, father of the democratic party, advised against it as it would "give that advantage to foreign over domestic manufactures." And eye, John C. Calhoun, who later became the leading free trade advocate of democracy, said in 1816:
"The encouragement and protection of manufactures produces a system strictly American, as much as
WOMAN'S STRANGE STORY
Mrs. Northam Accuses Attorney's Wife of Stabbing Her
Mrs. Leotia Northam, who filed suit for divorce against Colonel Bob Northam several months ago, is in a Los Angeles hospital, the victim, she declares; of an attack upon her Monday afternoon by three women, one of whom wielded a dagger with a fury and intent that were deadly.
According to her story the attack occurred in Colonel Northam's rented home at 215 East Washington street, Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock. It was a surprise. The three women of the attacking party fled in an automobile, leaving Mrs. Northam with just strength enough to call a taxi cab. She was hurried to the hospital by her physician. Dr. Rae Smith. Upon arriving she wired to her attorney, Frank J. Burke, of San Francisco, who took the first train down. He heard her remarkable story and asserted that complaints would be preferred against the three women with the district attorney.
These are the facts and the allegations constituting the story, hence it may be concluded that the whole affair is a mystery. It is.
The three women are named by Mrs. Northam. She received a newspaper reporter and related the details of the assault. Her right arm was heavily bandaged and when she spoke she apparently suffered greatly. She says that her assailant had stabbed her first in the left side and left two wounds, one of entrance and the other of emergence of the knife, and three deep cuts on the right forearm which she had thrown up to ward off the blows.
Dr. Rae Smith, the attending physician who examined Mrs. Northam's injuries and dressed them, said that they amounted to nothing, were mere pin pricks, indeed might have been made by a pin, and that no blood had been drawn.
The woman whom Mrs. Northam accuses of having stabbed her is the wife of a Los Angeles attorney. When asked about the matter she expressed astonishment and said she did not even know Mrs. Northam.
One of the other two women is the wife of an automobile dealer and a sister of the attorney's wife. The other is the wife of a physician.
Mrs. Northam not only charges these women with having made the attempt upon her life, but of having spite from Chatham town and distributed in annual wages over $243,000,000.

Protection sentiment was so strong among the founders of our government that when it was proposed to reduce tariff duties in 1811, President Jefferson, father of the democratic party, advised against it as it would "give that advantage to foreign over domestic manufactures." And eye, John C. Calhoun, who later became the leading free trade advocate of democracy, said in 1816:
"The encouragement and protection of manufactures produces a system strictly American, as much as agriculture. The country will from this derive much advantage. It will greatly increase our mutual dependence and intercourse."
It is hard to find among the writings of modern protectionists anything stronger than Andrew Jackson's claim:
"It was time that we should become a little more Americanized, and instead of feeding the laborers of England, feed our own, by congress taking care to protect and foster the several branches of manufactures which have been instituted and extended by the laudable exertions of our citizens."
The platform of the republican party when it won its first national victory and made Abraham Lincoln president, declared:
"That while providing revenue for the support of the general government by duties upon imports, sound policy requires such an adjustment of these imports as to encourage the development of the industrial interests of the whole country; and we commend the policy of national exchanges which secures to the workingman liberal wages, to agriculture remunerative prices, to mechanics and manufacturers an adequate reward for their skill, labor and enterprise, and to the nation commercial prosperity and independence."

The woman whom Mrs. Northam accuses of having stabbed her is the wife of a Los Angeles attorney. When asked about the matter she expressed astonishment and said she did not even know Mrs. Northam.
One of the other two women is the wife of an automobile dealer and a sister of the attorney's wife. The other is the wife of a physician.
Mrs. Northam not only charges these women with having made the attempt upon her life, but of having written her anonymous letters, with a well-known San Francisco woman as a co-conspirator.
The story of Monday afternoon's attack, as told by Mrs. Northam, runs thus:
Mrs. Northam has been in the habit of visiting her husband's home on East Washington street to see her pets, and always entered by the back door. Monday afternoon she went through the house into the billiard room, there saw a paper lying on the table and was stooped over reading something that especially attracted her when she heard a rush of feet behind her. Instantly she was seized and, wrenching herself around in the grasp, she looked into the faces of three women.
One of these, the attorney's wife, had a knife which Mrs. Northam believes was a dagger. She almost tore herself from the other two, who still held her, when the one wielding the dagger struck a vicious blow in the side. But for a deflection caused by a stay, Mrs. Northam says this blow might have been fatal.

GRAPHITE COMES FROM CEYLON
Large Importations Come to the United States Annually
The natural graphite mined and concentrated in the United States is variable in amount, principally because the process of milling flake graphite, the most abundant type of domestic material, is still in an experimental stage. Because of this unreliability of the domestic supply a great many of the large consumers of graphite prefer to depend on the supply on imported material.
In 1911 the quantity of graphite imported into the United States for consumption was 20,702 short tons, valued at $1,495,728. In contrast to this the total domestic production was 3618 short tons of natural graphite, valued at $288,465, and 5072 short tons of manufactured graphite, valued at $664,000.
The great bulk of the graphite imported into the United States comes from the island of Ceylon, and the United States has for many years been the principal market for this Ceylon product. Considerable amounts of graphite are also imported into the United States from Mexico and within the last few years graphite from Chosen (Korea) has entered the market.
Information concerning the Ceylon graphite deposits has been widely scattered through obscure publications but is now made available to American readers in the form of a summary of existing knowledge of these deposits, appearing in a report of the United States geological survey—"Production of Graphite in 1911" by Edson S. Bastin. This report also contains a description of the Korean deposits, general information in
COAL IN WYOMING
Product is Smaller Than That of Preceding Year
The production of coal in Wyoming in 1911 was 6,744,864 short tons, valued at $10,508,863.
As in most of the other states in the Rocky Mountain region, the coal production of Wyoming was considerably smaller than in 1910, when the record output was obtained, but it was larger than in any other preceding year. Compared with 1909 the output in 1911 showed a normal increase. Coal mining in all the Rocky Mountain states was abnormally stimulated in 1910 by the strike among the miners of the Middle West. Wyoming's production in that year increased more than 1,100,000 tons over 1909, reaching a total of 7,533,088 short tons. With the reutrn to normal conditions in 1911 the production in Wyoming fell off to 6,744,864 short tons, a decrease of 788,224 short tons, or 10.5 per cent. The value declined from $11,706,187 to $10,508,863. The difference in the percentage of decrease between quantity and value was not due o any actual advance in price. There was a general decline in values for commercial coal in most of the coal producing regions, but in Carbon and Sweetwater counties, where a large part of the product is mined for railroad use by companies affiliated with the transportation interests, the prices were apparently somewhat higher.
The quantity of coal undercut by machines in Wyoming in 1911 was 1,948,589 short tons, or 28.9 per cent of the total output, against 1,468,994 short tons, or 19.5 per cent of the total, in 1910.

HIS HAT IS IN THE RING
John N. Anderson Will Be Candidate for Senator
John N. Anderson was in town from Santa Ana on Friday, accompanying a party of Stanton boosters, who brought with them a silver loving cup to be awarded the town having the largest attendance at today's barbecue at Stanton. Mr. Anderson in answer to a query said he would be a candidate for the republican nomination for State Senator from the Thirty-ninth district.
"Will Estudillo be a candidate to succeed himself?" he was asked.
"Estudillo will not be a candidate for the office. I had a talk with him two weeks ago and he informed me that if I entered the race he would not be a candidate. He will support me."
"It's Orange county's turn for the nomination, isn't it?" he was asked.
"Yes it is, and Riverside will not ask for the nomination. I have not yet announced my candidacy, but I shall do so after the national convention meets in Chicago next month."
Mr. Anderson was especially pleased with the result of the California primaries, being a Roosevelt man from away back. He favors Johnson for vice-president.
Assemblyman Bishop of Santa Ana will also be a candidate for the senatorship. Bishop has a large following in the district, and will give the former senator a run for his dinero.

Information concerning the Ceylon graphite deposits has been widely scattered through obscure publications but is now made available to American readers in the form of a summary of existing knowledge of these deposits, appearing in a report of the United States geological survey—"Production of Graphite in 1911" by Edson S. Bastin. This report also contains a description of the Korean deposits, general information in regard to the character, origin, and uses of graphite, and statistics of domestic and foreign production and importations.
There are three general classes of graphite—natural crystalline or the flake graphite, natural amorphous graphite, and manufactured graphite, of the amorphous type. Graphite is a mineral of great and increasing industrial importance and is applied to many uses, though the graphite from any one source is never adapted to all these uses.
One of the oldest and most important applications of graphite is in the manufacture of crucibles for use in the steel, brass and bronze, and other industries. Such crucibles must have good tensile strength and for their manufacture a fibrous or flaky graphite is used, the interlocking of the fibers adding to the strength.
Ground Ceylon lump graphite is the material most in favor in United States for making crucibles, although small amounts of American flake graphite are also used. Amorphous graphite has never been successfully utilized in crucible manufacture except for very small crucibles.
HELP FOR BOY SCOUTS
To Develop Them Physically, Mentally and Morally
The leaders of the Boy Scouts of America are working out plans to provide still better supervision of the boys' play. Plans are being outlined to teach the boys thoroughly many things that they now do in a hap-hazard sort of way. While the boys in the spirit of fun engage in many activities, those things have a practical value in after life. The aim of the scout leaders is to let the boys have fun but to supervise their play in such a way as to develop the boy's body and mind.
The boy's zest for fun turns in many directions that can be made to be useful both to himself and to his fellowmen. If a boy is fond of camping and the woods, the scout idea is entered the market.
Assemblyman Bishop of Santa Ana will also be a candidate for the senatorhip. Bishop has a large following in the district, and will give the former senator a run for his dinero.
TIED BABY'S ARMS
Little One Found Dead in Carriage After Sleep
By throwing her head across the iron bar of the top of her buggy the six-month-old baby daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. N. McKinsey of Santa Ana was strangled to death on Thursday afternoon. The baby had been suffering from eczema, and in order to keep her from scratching herself when she should awaken, the father tied the infant's arms. The baby went to sleep in the baby carriage, at 2 o'clock. Usually the child had slept long, and it was 6 o'clock before the mother went to the buggy, and found the infant dead. The baby had awakened and in moving her body had thrown her head over the brace of the top, which was down. She was unable to lift her head off the bar. A physician was called but it was too late to give aid.
DES GRANGES FAMILY MIXUP
Doubt As to Which Member Shall Receive Sum of Money
The superior court is called upon to decide who shall receive $287.50 held by the Benchley Fruit Co. of Fullerton. Suit was begun in the Fullerton township court for this amount due for oranges taken from an orchard at Fullerton. The plaintiff in the case is Josephine des Granges, who owned the property when the contract for the sale of the crop was made. Before the crop was all picked, the property was deeded to Adah des Granges Crall, who is alleged to declare that the money for the crop should go to her. The fruit company answered the complaint: that it has the money and will pay it to whoever it is due, and the court is asked to decide between Josephine des Granges and Adah des Granges Crall.
