public something explanatory of the
testimony recently given before the
merchant marine commission at Cleve-
land. A representative of the American
Shipbuilding company made the state
ment that American steel was deliv-
cred at Belfast for $26 ton, while the
same steel cannot be bought in this
country for less than $32 at Pittsburg.
The authority for this charge is one of
the sales agents of the Carnegie Steel
company, who made no secret of the
fact, but explained it by saying that the
company must keep it's mills running.
and if the home demand was not suffi-
c1ent for that it must take orders
abroad on such terms as it could get.
The facts are not unusual or open to
doubt. There is hardly one of the high
~ protected industries which does not
sell portion of its product abroad at
lower prices than the home consumer
pays. That is to say, the manufacturer
pays the freight for several thousand
miles of transportation and then sells
his product in the foreign market in
open competition with that cheap
labor" which is held before the Ameri-
can workingman as bugaboo, and
makes money. OF course he does not
make as much money as he does out of
the American market. thanks to the
powerful tariff holdup game. but he does
not lose. No manufacturer keeps on
producing commodities and selling them
at a loss. We may accept it as proved
that the price paid by the foreigner
leaves margin of profit to the maker.

price and the domestic price. which in

the many years that success has greet
ed Gentry Bros exhibitions, they have
kept a carefully compiled list of the
cities and towns where their various
shows were the most literally patron
lied. This city has proven to be one of
their banner towns, consequently, in
laying out the itinerary for the con-

ANOTHER SAFEGUARD

The problem the banker has to solve
is how to adequately protect the money
intrusted to his care. He must guard
against the thieves that are without
and the thieves that may be within. To
foil the former there is any number of
patent devices, triumpIs of modern in
vention, which, if they do not abso-
lutely safeguard a banks treasure. at
least demand SO much of the would-be
thief in the way of mental equipment
that there are today few who would
venture to rob a city bank. But to
guard against thieves who may be in
side bank is much more difficult
and delicate task. The bank authori-
ties must rely chiefly on the testi-
monials of character presented by those
who seek employment and on a strict
espionage over the habits and conduct
OF those who are employed.
The action recently taken by the
bankers of New Haven, Conn, which
will compel hereafter, on pain of dis
mlssal, every employee to make use Of
the annual vacation privilege and the
midday lunch hour privilege is along
the line of that paternalism which ne
cessity has forced the bankers to prac-
tice. There is generally some direct
cause for an action of this sort The
reason for this particular action was
the confession of a bank teller who en-
bezzled large sum of money and who
confessed that he found his opportunity
in the time when he should have been
on his vacation or out to lunch.
A short time ago Russell Sage de-
clared himself to be not in favor of va
cations. 1t is not pleasant to feel that
class of American business men have
found it necessary, in order to safe
guard the money intrusted. to their
care. to make it compulsory on all their
employees to take vacations and eat
their luncheons, but certainly compul-
sorry vacations and compulsory lunch
cons are better than none at ALTO a
certain extent moral health and physi-
cal health are closely related. The
man who is compelled, for two weeks
out of every year. to get away from the
eternal grind and seek healthful re-
taxation (if he seeks the other kind he
loses his position) is the better for it
morally as well as physically. And the
man who is compelled to take adj
vantage Of the noon lunch hour privi-
lege, if he has heretofore not availed
himself of it, is apt to find that he has
gained moral as we'll as physical
strength to combat such temptation as
may come to him. The paternalism of
the New Haven bankers is even wiser
than it appears on the surface.

tax paid by the American consumer
for the Legislative establishment of mo-

This form of robbery will continue
just as long as the Republican party
remains in power. No other people
that ever lived was stupid enough to
suffer under it indefinitely, and we
cannot think that Americans are the

he will take greater pride in the bath

water in the bath will be kept con-
stant1y fresh by a stream from one of
the artesian wells. An imitation cave
has been prepared, where the bears can

CIGARMAKERS BOOM
THEIR UNION LABEL
Cigars and Gard Cases Given Away in
Attempt TO Win Supporters

The st. Paul Cigarmakers' union is
indulging in a novel and costly method
of advertising union-made cigars. Be-

union started a series Of visits to the
meetings of the other unions. At each
meeting cigars are given away, and
after the treat the members of the
committee are given the right to adj
dress the members of the unions, urg-
ing that union made cigars be de-
manded when purchases are made.
In addition to the cigars, several
thousand card cases. in which appears
a caution to look for the label on all
cigar boxes, were given away. This
method of bringing the label of the CT
garmakers to the notice of union men
generally has proven popular, and the
cigarmakers believe that the expense
will be well repaid.
