Safeguard the Children.

Notwithstanding all that is done by
boards of health and eharitably in
clined persons, the death rate among
small children is very higd during the
hot weather of the summer months in
the large cities. There is not probably
one case OF bowel complaint in a
hundred, however, that could not be
cured by the timely use of Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. For sale by Hanson &

Starch from Sweet Potatoes.

'The day will, believe, come when
the sweet potato will furnish the
starch of the world" So said DR.. Har-
vey w. Wiley, chief of the Bureau of
Chemistry in the Agricultural Depart
ment, in reply to the appeal of Con-
gresham Brantley of Georgia, that
the government, having developed the
possibilities of the sugar cane syrup
industry, should make a somewhat
similar study of the sweet potato.

SPANS Repudiated Debt.

Spain, at one time by far the most
powerful of European nations, was the
earliest power to contract a national
debt, which. in 1856, only amounted to
the modest sum of one million pounds
By 1910 it had grown to 94O,OOO,OOO
under Philip III, after whose death the
whole of it was repudiated.

TARIFF TALK.
mo. b

1ucIc ID d uiePosiIioh vi .no POI
of some public men to surround the
tariff question with an air of
mystery, to endeavor to convey to
the public the idea that it is an
exceedingly complicated question
and very difficult for them to under
stand, and only those who have
given the subject much thought,
careful consideration and years of
deep study, are capable of under
standing it. This class of public
men would like to have the people
believe that they do not possess
sufficient knowledge themselves TO
know what they want, that it is
necessary for them to pass the entire
matter up to those who understand
it. This idea is absolutely falla-
cious. The details of tariff legisla-
ton are somewhat difficult to COM
prshend but the theory is very
simple. The people may not know
how much or how little tariff they
want but they do know the kind of
a one they desire. Any citizen of
ordinary common sense is as capable
of coming to conclusion whether
he wants a protective tariff, a
revenue tariff or free trade, as he is
of deciding whether he wants to
employ one, or two men on his
farm during the season. The tariff
is a business proposition, it affects
the business of every man in the
country.
A citizen is just as much in
terested in looking after tariff legis-
lation and seeing that it is framed
on just, fair and equitable lines as
he is in seeing that he is not
swindled in the purchase of goods
or in the selling of his productions.
If the citizen pays no attention to
tariff legislation, permits those
whose interests are adverse to his
to formulate and dictate, he is as
sure TO get the worst of the deal as
he would if he were to permit the
buyer to fix the price of everything
he sells, the seller to fix the price
OF everything he buys and permit
the men ne employs fix the amount
OF wages they are to receive.
Citizens must pay some attention
to this matter, make their demands
on their representatives and not
leave it entirely in the hands of the
few, or the many will get the small
end of whatever benefit is derived
from tariff Legislation and the few
will get the lions share.
1t is impossible to pass legisla-
ton that will benefit everybody
equally, in fact it is almost impos.
sible to pass legislation, particularly
financial, that will not be detri-
mental to the interests of some, this
is especially true of tariff legisla.
ton.
Cheap politicians talk ON the
stump and write in the newspapers
about tariff and other legislation
that will benefit all the people.
tits dream of the dreamer, an
ignps fstus as chimerical and vision
airy as the story of the fountain of
perpetual youth. If it were true
everybody could be made rich by
law and poverty could be legislated
cat OF existence. The true measure
OF statesmanship in legislation is to
enact laws and inaugerate policies
that will be beneficial to as many
interests a. possible and detrimental

to as few, and this is the trn'
measure of beneficial and statesman
like tariff legislation the same a
all other.
When man tells you that if yor
will elect him as a legislator, Oh
member of congress, he will favor
Legislation that will benefit all and
be detrimental to none, mark hin
down as a skillful and consumatt
prevaricator or a wild eyed dreamer
and in either case he is palpably un
fit to legislate on any matter that
affects the welfare of the people.
The tariff theory of this country
is settled for century. Practically
all of the people believe in a pro-
tective tariff, and / may say,
practically all sensible people be-
lieve in protection, irrespective OF
their party affiliations. Tariff fol
revenue only and free trade are dead
as julius Caesar as political issues.
On the details of protection, how
ever there is a considerable di.
tvergence of opinion. Each man
wants a protective tariff that will
benefit his own interests. In
dividual humanity is selfish. 1t is
natural for us to look after our own
interests and leave the other fellow
to look after his. Minnesotians
who raise wheat and barley want
protection against similar Canadian
products but they are not lying
awake nights for fear the South
Carolina planter will not get pro-
lection for his rice. At the time of
the DINGHY bill the stock raisers of
the west and southwest demanded
and received protection on their
cattle and hides bnt they were not
as much interested as the eastern
tanner was in securing protection
for leather and boots and shoes
At the time of the passage of that
bill we heard eloquent champions
of eastern interests, strong pro-
tectionists everyone, proclaim over
and over again that hides were
simply a by product OF the stock
business and that it was preposterous
to talk about protection on a by
product. We were little curious
to find out what by product was.
A little investigation convinced us
it was something belonging to the
other fellow.
General Hancock once said the
tariff was a local issue. The state
ment cost him the presidency, yet it
was true. 1t was not the first time
that telling the truth cost a man an
Office, nor will it be the last. Yet
it is also national question and
how it will affect the nation is a
question of vastly more Importance
than how it will affect localities
While individual humanity is
selfish, collective humanity, or the
public, is always just, fair and
generous and collective opinion,
that is public opinion, is that the
measure of protection should he the
measure of common benefit.
Taking this view of the ques-
ton which is manifestly so correct
as to be beyond the pale of contro-
versary the tariff question naturally
resolves itself into three divisions:
l. What is the object of protection.
2. What industries should be pro-
tected.
3. What should be the amount of
protection.
These three propositions Will be
discussed in future articles.

ton. The only manly way to dc
is to take the medicine you would
have liked to have administered to
the other fellow, smile and look
pleasant.
1t cannot be denied that there
is a disposition among some
leading republicans and republican
papers to bolt the head of the
ticket. This is childish. Mr..
Dunn has pledged himself to be
governor of all the people. Let us
take him at his word. He could
not we'll be otherwise even if he
were so inclined and until he has
given some official manifestation
that he intends to go back on the
interests of the people, no one has
the right to assume that he will do
so. His official career will be
more closely scrutinized than that
of any governor we have had for
years. He will be in the lime light
all the time. If he stands the test
we will all delight to do him honor,
if he falls down we will swipe him
when he comes up for denomination.
Even if the worst things that were
said about him during the campaign
were true, he could do but little
damage. A governor cannot enact
or prevent the enactment of legisla-
ton nor can he prohibit the enforce
ment of single statute now on the
books. We will have republican
house and republican senate and
all OF them will have to 90 to the
country two years hence for en-
dorsement. Minnesota is a re-
publican state. A large majority
of it's voters believe in republican
principles and republican policies.
1t is much easier to keep it in the
republican column than it would be
to win it back after once turning it
over to the democracy. Let us give
all the republican candidates the full
republican vote. Have done with
this silly talk of boiling.

French Debt Wiped Out by Republic.
France, 1643, began to incur her
debt, chiefly through the wars of Louis
XIV and the lavish expenditure in
building Versailles. In the later years
of Louis XVI this amounted to e468,-
100000, only to be repudiated on the
establishment of the republic, when
some creditors received thirty three
per cent, and others nothing.

"Those who argue that the people
may obtain relief from exactions OF
the meat trust by letting meat alone
should not forget that it will be
necessary for those who drop meat
from the bill of fare to eat some,

result other foodstuffs will also
advance in price. The solution OF
the meat problem is the prosecution
of the packers combine, and the
