HOW AMERICA WILL PROTECT HER MARKETS.

J. W. T. Mason, Daily Express corre- spondent at New York, writes:--

Reports are coming back to America. from London that Free Trade advocates are spreading a fable attributing resant ment to the United States because of the possibility that Great Britain will adopt a protective tariff after the war.. Nothing is further from the thoughts of Americans than a desire to interfere in the slightest degree with the fiscal systems of other countries.

The only way to keep the German manufactures out is by means of a tariff, and it is absolutely certain that America will do
