in the United States.
Demand for free raw materials
serves well for a rallying cry, be-
cause of it's ambiguity 1t is suffi-
GENTLY flexible to suit the most fas-
tidious voter provided he should
not be too inquisitive.
So long as he is not called upon
for particulars, our tariff reformer
gets on swimmingly. Force him to
enumerate those materials he would
include in the proposed exemption
from duty, and it will be found that
his logic followed to it's legitimate
sequence lands at absolute free
trade in nearly every article COM
peting with the products of domes-
tic manufacturers In the iron in
dustry not an article short of the
very highest product would escape;
while with dry goods, only ready
made garments and fabrics requir
ing no further manipulation to fit
them for use would be exempted
from the comprehensive list. For
in the entire range of manufactured
products there are but few that do
not become the base, the ''raw ma
terial, = of some more advanced in
dustry. In the case of clothing, the
finished cloth is the raw material of
the tailor, wool of the weaver, corn
and grass Of the sheep owner. In
iron, ore comes to the smelter, pig
iron to the makers of bars, and
these in their turn to the makers of
cutlery, machinery and other arti-
cles, many of which-such as nails,
hinges, gas pipes, etc.-are but
auxiliary to the business of workers
in other industries.
The cry for free raw materials
is drag net, just now most persis-
tently manipulated by free traders
for the capture Of recruits to the
Golden policy. In vain should it be
set in the presence of intelligent
voters.

Crime Unpublished.

The statement is frequently made
without contradiction, that the laws
for the prevention of crime and
wrong doing in this community
have little or no restraining effect.
This arises from the fact that those
whose duty it is to see to the en-
forcement of the laws fail to act 1t
is not because, as many people sup
pose, that the laws are detective,
but it is because so many protested
ly law abiding people fail to do
their duty. It is a mistake to take
it for granted that all infractions of
the statutes must be looked after by
a police officer. If the evils. Of
which many people SO much COM
plain, were given more attention by
every order loving citizen, radical
change for the better would be seen
and the evils complained of sup
pressed. Every citizen may be a
sub-policeman; if he cannot make
arrests, he can notify and furnish
evidence to those who have authori-
ty to arrest, and whose specific bus
mess is to see the laws enforced.
Laws for restraining wrong doing
are a, dead letter on the statute
book if no one sees to their eXecu-
ton. The wisdom of laws is of lit
tie consequence if no effort is made
to make them available. Much is
heard, and probably not without
reason, of the violations of law il
respect to the Sunday liquor traffic
and the selling of intoXicants tx
minors and drunkards. Also tina
disorderly houses are tolerated anC
kept open at unreasonable hours
The proof Of these reports is not al
ways at hand, and if newspapers
published no statements of thi
sort, except such as are accompan
led with the evidence, the cur
rent local news would occupy but
small space. Much local news mus
always be taken on trust.

The Raw Material Ambush.

An especially significant phase of
the opposition to Protection just
now quite prominent, is the demand
for free raw materials = This is
the first degree to which the free
trade neophyte is introduced, and
in which he is expected to become
proficient, preparatory to assuming
the more advanced attitude of the
Golden Club and it's representatives

National Election Law.

One of the most important bills
before Congress, the National cleo
ton law, has passed the House Of
Representatives by vote of 1916 to
148. This was by an almost strict
party vote; two Republicans voted
against the bill. For many years
some Congressional action to rectify
the wrongs, which the bill now
passed by the House is intended to
reach has been called for. It is
time the question was settled wheth-
er this is a government in which ali
the people who are qualified by the
laws of the country to participate,
may have a voice, or a part may be
denied that right by fraud and VIC
lence. The bill which has passed
the House is designed to correct tie
abuses which have existed in sever
al of the Southern States ever since
the war of the rebellion, and prac-
tees which have been used political
ly to put Democratic members into
Congress from districts where that
party is largely in the minority. It
is useless to deny that frauds have
yearly been committed in the States
referred to; they have been fire.
quently proven beyond the possi-
bility Of successful denial. It has
been said by way of defence by
Southern Congressman, "white men
must govern this country; this is a
white mans government. South
ern members insist that elections
are free, but practically admit the
wrong by saying on the floor of the
House, 1--WE white people) have
got to rule or leave the country
All the members from Wisconsin
voted for this bill; La Toilette, of
Madison, made the last speech be-
fore the final vote was taken. He
said. 1.-The people OF, the north had
exercised patience for a generation
with the people of the South in or
der to enable them to put them
selves in obedience to the constitu-
ton, and that the north could bear
it no longer: they are under com
mand to obey the Constitution, and
every qualified citizen has right to
cast his vote and have it honestly
counted = If any Southern State
allows voters to be driven from the
polls on account of race prejudice or
other illegal cause in the election of
their own State officers, Congress
does not propose to interfere. But
a member of Congress, a United
States officer, the case is different.
The passage of this bill by the
House of Representatives has caused
much dissatisfaction to be expressed
in the Democratic press. It is de-
nounced as an attempt to control
the constitutional privileges of the
Southern States and much else of
the same kind of unjust criticism.
It is hardly fair to charge this hos
tility to the National election bill by
the Democrats is for the reason it
will arrest one of the resources from
which Democratic members are
drawn at every Congressional cleo
ton

CATTLE DECREASING,

The Aggregate Numbers Several Millions
Less than Few Years Ago.
The census of livestock in the United
States, now being taken, will undoubt-
eddy show marked decrease in the
numbers of cattle in this country from
what there was q few years ago. The
decrease will be found to be principally
In range cattle, and the natural results
of this falling off in the supply can but be
beneficial to prices. The National Stock
man, on this subject, says:
Live stock journals of the far West
claim that the numbers of cattle on the
ranges have been falling of SO largely in
the last few years that the aggregate
totals now are several million head less
than few years ago. This is perhaps
correct. The reduction in numbers has
resulted from several causes. which
we have discussed in these
columns from time to time. and
has been positive having been sufficiently
marked in the last year or two to remove
all question about it. The natural re-
suit of this must be Cndeed it cannot be
otherwise) that the surplus of cattle
which has been weighing on the trade so
heavily for number OF year, will, one
OF these days, disappear This Is GER
tainly as inevitable as any other positive
thing which is bound TO occur. When
that time comes cattle prices will, of
course, Substantially advance. Condi-
tons are such that the ranges are not
likely to be again filed up as they have
been with livestock, and this ought to
secure prevention of the recurrence of
any such WONDERFUL multiplication in
numbers as has taken place in the last
ten wears .,

Notes and Personals.

The Hoyannis (Neb.) Stock journal
says that eight hundred Colorado cattle
unloaded at Hubbell were stampeded by
the sight of water in a creek and ran
over each other and mired deep into the
mud, many being killed and MANNED.
Many lambs are marketed now at the
age OF few months at weights that
would have been considered fair for cars
Oh 1at wethers ten or fifteen years
ago. This marketing OF well and rapidly
hnished young stock usually pays.
An Iowa breeder writes the Journal of
that state that he recently sold TWENTY
three head of yearlinSs which averaged
llo2 pounds each, and Melted S44. So per
mead. He very truly says that beats
niteen cent corn. He is still feeding
one carload of younger steers, but does
not think they will average HOO pounds.

farmer of South Dickinson, Kan, re-
ports a mysterious loss of cattle in the
south part OF the county. He himself
lost thirteen head yesterday. The ami
mails were apparently well, but lay down
ana died in an hour. Other farmers are
losing large numbers, and the epidemic
is spreading, causing much uneasiness
among stock owners.
The Ockre, Oregon, Review saws that
oattlemen of Beaver have plenty of
beeves for sale, but it will take $50 to
buy them, and besides the beef must be
received at Beaver and not driven to
Deschutes bridge, as in the past. If all
the cattlemen in the country would COM
pine and demand this price and also that
their beef be taken at the range corrals.
they certainly could force buyers to con-
oede to their demands, and would th ere
Dy realize several thousand dollars more
for their cattle.
