1t will be remembered that MIR.
George A. Rockwell, the leading dry
goods merchant of Junction City, was
widely quoted two years ago on the
effect of the Mckinley bill. lie pre-
dicted great advances in everything
and his sentiments were used by every
democratic paper in central Kansas.
The Junction City Republican inter-
viewed him the other day on the matter
and he said:
On the passage of the Mckinley bill
there was an advance in the price OF a

goods, crockery and grocery merchants,
but IN the past year great many new
factories have been built in this coun-
try, and the result is that more employ.

prices are lower than ever before. The
following goods are now cheaper than

bill: Blankets, yarns, flapne's, WOODEN

of clothing, shirts, towelings, sugar,
pepper, nutmegs, allspice, cinnamon.

Mir John Davidson, one of Junction

and said

Such testimony from men we all

the Mckinley bill. Protection does

The County Ticket,

Last Saturdays convention was in
all respects an excellent one. II was
an old time republican convention.
The delegations fIom the precincts
were all in and they were composed OF
representative men as well as represen-
tatiye republicans. Harmony prevailed
Nothing occurred to engepder the Ill
feeling Of anyone, The unsuccessful
candidates bore their defeat philosophi-
cally and declared their fidelity to the
successful ticket from top to bottom.
Hon. g. Hoffman, the nominee for
representative, is well known to almost
every citizen Of the county, He has
occupied numerous positions Of honor
and trust heretofore and no trust has
ever been betrayed. He came to this
county thirty years ago and has mater
tally aided in making the county what
1t is today. lie has had large enough
business experience and probably is as
thoroughly familiar with the legislative
wants and necessities of the people of
this county as any other person. MIR.
Hoffman will receive the earnest sup.
port of every citizen Of this county who
is in favor of wiping out the dscredi.
table page in Kansas history, written
by the late house Of representatives at
Topeka.
Edward Q. Little, the candidate for
county attorney, is a child of Dickinson
county. lie has spent the principal
part Of his life here among us. His
record is known and read by all of us.
The almost unsolicited nomination
which he received shows conclusively
that the people of this county regard
him az the man eminently fitted for
the position and he will be triumphant
" elected.
l.. IL. halleck, the nominee for
district clerk, is a young man OF excel
lent attachments who has fought his
way up successfully by honest, hard
and persevering industry. lie is u
thorough republican aud will win as
many votes from the enemy as any man
who could have been named.
Judge Peck was renominated for
probate Judge, The fact that Mr.. Peck
has thus been honored for third time

in.his favor ""a fidelity to repnbli-
can principles which he '"e" WV

Why Il VIII Win.

The ticket nominated by the republi.
cans Of Dickinson county last Saturday
will win. II has the elements of
strength in 1t that make il invincible
and when the ballots are counted next
November it will be seen that every
man named at the convention has a
good working majority.
The ticket can be truthfully said to
be one Of the best ever put up in this
county. Every man on II is worthy the
place TO which he aspires and las a
record for unquestioned republicanism
that commends him to the people.
There are 10 incompetents, no hangers
on, no back numbers. The gentlemen
nominated have proved themselves
worthy citizens Of the county and
deserving the votes of their friends.
But more than that 1t is a ticket that
stands for prosperity and progress.
Not candidate will go out among the
people telling them that they are down.
trodden serfs, slaves and minions.
They have all made their own way in
the world and honor alike the govern
ment and the state that has enabled
them to do 30. They believe in Kansas
and propose to stand up for 1t and
make its name more honored than ever
and wipe of the stain placed there by
the action Of two years ago.
The way to win this fall is for every
republican to take of his coat and
work for the whole ticket from Ben
jamin Harrison down to road overseer,
and we'll elect them all, too, for this is
republican year aud victory is in the
Air.

Why It should be Northumberland Well
Enough Alone" IL n Good Principle to
Act On.


Why It should be Northumberland Well
Enough Alone" IL n Good Principle 70
Act On.
We often see the question Asked
why is 1t necessary to levy more than a
revenue duty on boots and shoes, when
those articles are largely exported 10
countries from which we fear the worst
competition in producing them, upon
the event of free trader Our answer is
that 1t may not be absol utely necessary,
but 1t is wise precaution to do so.
Absolutely no good whatever would
come from substituting a revenue for a
protective duty. Revenue duty" as.
sumes that the articles upon which II is
levied will be imported. Do we want
to invite importation? Do we want
business taken away from American
manufacturers and work from American
laoor3 We certainly do not want any
more revenue than the present adjust
ment of the tariff affords Then W hat
earthly reason Is there for revenue
tariff? 1t cannot be TO relieve America
purchasers, for the fact is that they
already buy the things enumerated
and indeed the nature of the question
assumes that they do--more cheaply
than they are sold anywhere else on
earth. SO that no relief whatever would
come from lowering the present tariff
We must conclude, then, that there IL
not single solitary reason worthy of
serious attentio that can be advanced
in favor OF the change to revenue
duties on the things mentioned.
q But there is n reason why safe pro.
tective duty should be retained. Expe ri
ence has taught us the danger of too
hastily reducing duties because for the
time II seems safe TO do so. After the
war of 1912 clos ed, the country found it,
self with innumerable manufacturing
establishments in operation which hnd
sprung up under the high war tariff.
Congress reasoned as tho sc who ask this
question do, thought the tariff of 1919
too high and reduced II by the law OF
1915. Now, that law was framed and
passed as an avowedly protective tariff.
Indeed, 1t was in princi pie the most dis
tinctively protective measure which
had ever passed up TO that time, and It's
supporters never dreamed but that IL
would afford ample protection to every
AShh bul IL IlOl. III
was adjusted to meet conditions which
proved to be transient and soon
changed. With the REIMBURSEMENT of
commerce after the close Of the Napo-
leonic wars about this time, there oc-
CURED an extraordinary fall in prices in
Europe, due largely TO the opening up
OF the high seas TO commerce, and the
consequent unlocking of the stocks OF
manufacturers accumulated during the
turbulent war period. Shipload after
shipload of English and French goods
We're sent TO America for sale at any
price Tho tariff of 1915 was no more
than a dam Of sand against the mighty
flood. American industry was well nigh
ruined, the crash Of 1919 ensued and re.
lief came only with the adoption Of the
higher tariff Of 1924.
To sum up, we should reply to this
question, the simple rule, "let well
enough alone" applies to the duties on
classes of articles such as those men.
