Mind This!

The only and true remedy for Wage
Workers to better their condition is to
vote the Democratic ticket. They may
poo-poo but this they vii! find it sooner
or later to be the fact. They have been
voting and shouting for Tariff and Pro-
lection for fifty years, ,-(they and their
sires, and what have they,-strikes and
discontent,- nothing else. Now let
them vote the Democratic ticket for
two or three years and learn the result.
If a "Happy Canaan" is not the out
come, why, let them go back to their
brazen idols and keep on voting the
"Publican' ticket-pay taxes Tariff
and their wives and children suffer for
the necessaries of life. All the labor
troubles of the country, we boldly as
sert, are the outcome of the labor
ing people persisting in voting the Re-
publican ticket. The only thing ac-
complished thereby is putting office
seekers into office and taxing the labor
of the country to support the country
and office holders, by the foolish and
.senseless cry of Tariff and Protection!"
Tariff whom? The laboring people!
Yes! Protect whom!!! mot the
Iaboring people, but the capitalists
Nobody protects the laboring people,
but themselves, and if they DON'T
who will? Not the Republican party.

lLNo" AoIh
Ifyou don't raise the tariff we will
cut down wages-that is what the high
!! ly protected employers begin to
threaten. The New Jersey Unionist,
sensible and ably conducted labor
paper, discusses the threat of the pro-
tected employers in an article entitled
"All Cry and No Wool" 1t says:
Hayes, when he was satisfied on the
night of election that he was defeated
by Tilden, in 1876, said he did not care
for himself so much as he did for the
poor African. Much in the same dis
interested way President Search, of the
Philadelphia Textile Association, is
troubled over the poor workingman.
The woolen manufacturers, he says,
are losing money Notwithstanding all
the protection they have bad,l but
they do not care so much about that as
they do about their employees. Tn fact,
they have come to the conclusion "that
Congress must do something for them
or wages must go down." Duties on
wOolens must be raised. Tt would cut
the very gizzard out of the average
manufacturer to cut down wages, but
that was the only thing that could be
done unless Congress came to the res
cue. Congress must put some money
where the manufacturers can get it and
pay it over to the workman. Under
existing affairs it is "all cry and no
wool" for the wOnlen wage workers. -
And it would ejust the same if the
tariff was double the present rate. The
worker gets just the same as if there
was no protection at all. In other
words, the manufacturer gets the meat
of the egg protection, and the worker
is fed, housed and clothed upon the
very nutritious shell.
The Journal of United Labor makes
a pertinent, or what probably the pro-
tected bosses would call an impertinent
suggestion:
We do not mean to cast doubt on
the disinterested devotion of manufac-
turers to their employees, especially of
this class. We simply suggest that
Congress devise some way of conveying
the money direct to the workmen
themselves. 1t would he more direct,
and save troubling the bosses. The
workmen have had some little expert
ence of getting help through the
method suggested by Mr.. Search and
have not, in all cases, found it thor
oughly reliable. Doubtless this was due
to the long and deviousroute the money
had to travel. We must believe so.
So much has been done by manufac-
turers for workingmen, the wonder is
that labor, on its part, has not long
since owned the manufacturers.
That is sound and sensible talk The
wool snd woolen bosses have held a
convention and demanded of Congress
a higher tariff. How would it do for
their workingmen to speak out for free
wool? Congress is very ready nova.
days to do what the workingmen want
done. Free raw materials will in
crease employment and wages both;
why not demand that?

erected for public worship was a cabin
on Spring street, in 1914, on lot Of DIR.
Hoge's. DIR. Hoge preached until 1925
when the first Presbyterian church was
erected. The Methodist church Of
Columbus was organized in Columbus
in 1914. The same year they erected a
small hewed log house, which served
the double purpose of school-house aid
church. In 1924 permanent structure
was erected.
The first Penitentiary was erected in
1913. The State House was erected in
in 1915; the bricks of the ediflce were
partly made from a beautiful mound
near by, which, gave the name to the
street-Mound street.
The present city charter was granted
in 1884. About 1919 the old Court
House was erected. In 1924 the county
seat was removed from Franklinton to
Colombus was The Western HatelHgencer

population. E
THE STATE INSTITUTIONS AND OTHER
FEATURES.
The east and west travel passed
through GAINESVILLE, Lancaster, and
Chillicothe, which were larger towns at
this time. Columbus was only a rough
spot in the woods, far off from any pub
lie roads. The mails were brought
through the woods from one of the larg-
er towns. The first successful attempt
to carry the mail to or from Columbus
otherwise than on horseback, was by
Philip Rim, about the year 1916, once
week, between Chillicothe and Co.
lumbus. The years from 1919 to 1926
were the dullest years of Columbus; but
soon after it began to improve. The
location of the National Road and of
the Columbus Feeder of the Ohio Canal
gave great impetus to improvements.
The Penitentiary was begun in 1918,
as already noticed. The old Asylum
for the Insane, destroyed by fire, was
begun in 1886, and cost about $150,000;
it contained five millions of brick, 44O
rooms an acre of ground. The Asylum
for the Blind was established in 1887.
The Deaf and Dumb Asylum site was
selected in 1929, and soon after it was
built. We shall have more to say of
these institutions their growth, man.
agement, and characteristics. hereafter.
The State library was established in
1917. 1t was begun with only five hun
dred volumes, but has greatly increased
through the fostering care of the State,
and the liberalty of the Legislature, as
we'll as through the intelligence and
taste of the various librarians and as
sistants. The Law Library is also very
cUIuplete. ToJne General Library the
present author has been largely in
debted for material.

what the "Trusts' are Doing to Raise
Prices.

The trust" folks seem TO be pro-
gressing encouragingly to themselves.
The following are some Of the newer
ones and how they are getting along:
EnUetopes-The makers Of envelopes
in the United States have made q com
pact trust and prices are raised. The
duty on envelopes is 25 per cent.
School States The manufacturers
have formed q combination which con-
trolls the business, and this combina-
tiOn has raised prices IL per cent. since
May last. The duty Is 80 per cent.
Paper Bdgs-The trust formed in the
bag making industry controls the price
Of grocers' bags and the large -four
sacks used In the mills. 1t is stated
that these flour bags are made of man
lila rope stock and jute buds. The duty
on untarred manila rope averaged last
year 32.S9 per cent; on manila it was
p .06; on jute buds, 1918; on the manu-
featured bags 1t appears to have been 35
per cent.
Linseed Oa-The western manufac-
turers have formed pool or trust to
control the western market. The aver
age duty paid last year on imported oil
was 54.79 per cent.
Pairing Pitch-The pitch used in
roofing and paving is said to be con-
trolled in this country by a pool or
combination, at the head Of which are
Widener and Elkins, the Philadelphia
spectators who are supplying the trust
system tOg9S works and street railways
in several large cities. mot a pound
of roofing pitch,p said the Chicago
Tribune in September last, mot yard
of felt roofing paper, and not gallon
of paving pitch can he obtained in this
country unless Widener and Elkins
raise their fingers and give permission
for its sale." The duty on the pitch of
coal tar is 20 per cent. and that upon
roofing felt is the same.
Sdh-How much progress towards
the formation of a salt combination has
been made we do not know. A meet
ing was held in September, and it was
reported then that the arrangements
for union of 63 companies had heen
completed. The average duty on i'm
ported salt last year was 1890 per cent.
Corddge-There are less than thirty
cordage mills in this country and for
years they were controlled by pool
which limited production and fixed
prices. The pool was broken last
spring, and a new one, representing
two-thirds of the productive capacity,
was formed in the summer. The new
pool is said to control the supply of inn
ported manila and similar raw materi.
al. The average ad valorem rates oI
duty last year were as follows: Manila
q .06; jute, 20; sisal, 1880; tarred cables
and cordage, 30.13; untarred manila
cordage, 32.S9; other untarred cordage
30.09.
&cel-In October the crucible and
Open-hearth manufacturers of steel
formed combination to regulate and
maintain prices. The Bessemer manu-
facturers also formed similar ass0cia-
tion or pool. The steel-rail makers
met on Nov. 18th, and ''it was agreed''
said the Tribune at the time, ITO leave
the matter of output and other details
to the board of control. Prices are to
be maintained at current rates." The
rate of duty Paid last year on steel rails
was S4.33 per cent. Steel in all its
forms is heavily protected.
