A FAMILIAR FARCE.

Protection means increased manufac-

mean increased employ ment. Increased
employment means increased earnings.
Increased earnings means increased CON
sumption Increased consumption means
increased demand for articles consumed.
Increased demand for articles consumed
means increased prices, and that is why
all articles which the farmer has 30 sell

Just So The sum and substance
Of the whole protection scheme is to
slap an average 40 per cent tax on
every article used by seventy millions
of people and enable a class OF
protected manufacturers to dispose OF
any surplus to the outside world at
any price necessary to compete.
Home profits foot the bill The same
protection idea creates the great com
bines and trusts that stifle minor
home industries. The domestic
wooden mills, iron factories, tannery,
or any other industry you please,
only survives until its limited capital
is exhausted and then the prices 90
up and protection trusts reap from
the people the reward of combined
villainy. This IS the protection of
America today, and you know It'll

LAUGHTER AND LAW.
4 Hilarious Time at a Harrisville
Trial-Larson Fined.

Trial-Larson Fined
There was a brief legal battle at Har-
risville yesterday between County At
torney Peery, representing the state,
and Thomas Maloney. representing
Henry Larson. charged with beating F.
K. Keyson. Larson lost and was fined
the costs and all amounting to about
$50.
Parties present say that never was
there such a case in all the world-for
laughter. There were three rosy
checked, buxom girls as witnesses for
the state and they laughed at every
thing They laughed in all keys. The
prosecuting witness and the defendant
glared at each other and the girls
laughed and laughed and laughed.
Finally the court, the attorneys and
witnesses caught the infection and
laughed with them. Between giggling
spells the facts gradually came out that
Keyson and Larson both claimed tree
growing on the line between their re-
spective farms. They quarrelled. Key
scr pulled NO the tree Larson's son
took it away from him and Larson, SEN,
proceeded to take revenge by beating
Kevson, who is an old man and
cripple. Larson and his son testified for
Larson, but Justice Harris decided
against them.
Mr.. Maloney has appealed the case to
the district court.
