Those are some of the changes that the Englishmen complained of and they are largely due to the policy of protection due to American labor which is developed the Amorican industry aud enterprise until it evaded tho old world and rnado the Britons four that some American would came along and annex the British Isles as a museum of antiquity when froe trado ruled tho world. The democrats would how- oyor, stop tho wheel* o f progress aud again change the current of business from England to the Uuitod States iusteud of allowing it to continue { from the U.

W h a t P r o t e c t ion Has D o n e . What has protection done for America? An observant Englishman has told a party of the story iu his complaint that America has invaded Europe. He complains that the Englishmen who a fow years ago sup­ plied tho world, today sits down to hiB breakfast made of coreals manufactur ed in Michigan, beefsteak from Chi­ cago, a slice of bacon from New York, and bread made from Minneapolis Hour. On the way to his office ho rides in a car built in Now York, pro­ pelled by electrical machinery made in Schenectady, over a railroad con­ structed by American engineers, largely of American materials and projected by American capitalists. When be enters his office, if he is up to date, be sits in a revolving chair made in Chicago, before a roll top desk made in Buffalo; his letters are written on a typo writer madoinlliou, N’ Y., ho signs them with an Ameri­ can fountain pen, dries the ink with a New England blotter and files his letter copies in files manufactured at Grand Rapids. If he goes to the races for pleasure he sees the highest stake won by an American horse, rid­ den bv an American jockey, and when ho reads his evening paper he f -»rtf finds that the European nations are having battle ships built ia American There are 21,300,000 inhabitants of tho United States of voting ago and 2,300,000 of them, or about 11 porcout, wero returned on the last census as illiterate—a yory largo proportion for a country in which tbo opportunities of education are universal. An ^examination of tbo figures shows that contrary to tho general be­ lief, it is not tho foroign-boru voters who cause tho percentage to be so high. Tho proportion of illiterates among tho foreign born voters iu tho Uuitod States is 115 per cent, where­ as among the 10 5 per oont-not a vory important difference. The part of of tho United States in which thero is least illiteracy is tho group of states which make up the middle west and northwost. Iowa and Nebraska have less than 3 per cent, Kunsas less than 4 and Ohio, Illinois aud Minnesota less than 5 per cent of illitorato iu habitants over the ago of 21. In Utah and Washington, iu tiie Pacific group of states, tho percent­ age of illiteracy is less than 4 per cent; in Colorado, Oregon and Wyoming less than 5. In New England and among tho native-born inhabitants tho percent­ age is still lower, 1 per cent in Massa chusetts, 1.5 in Connecticut, 2 per cent in Now Hampshire aud 2.5 in Rhode Island. In tho south tho rato of illiteracy among nativo born white inhabitauls is highest in Louisiana, being 20 per cent. In North Carolina it is 19 per cent, Kentucky 15, Tounossoo and Alabama 14, South Carolina. Virginia and Georgia 12, West Virginia 11, and Arkansas 10, — The high rate of illiteracy in tho United States is duo largoly to tho colored inhabitants. Thero oro 2,300,- 000 of them ovor 21 years of ago and of these 1,075,000 are illiterate —40 per cent. Wherevor colored inhabitants are numerous the rate of illiteracy is high; where they are few in number it is low; and leaving out the colored in­ habitants tbo rate of illiteracy in tho United States is «not high and being reduced steadily.
