THE NEAT FAMINE IN GERMANY.

Tariffs on food products have in all
countries and at all times succumbed to
the irresistible pressure of empty stom-
achs. A bread famine in Great Britain
in the early part of the nineteenth cen
fury not only caused the repeal of the
obnoxious corn laws, but forced Parlia-
ment to substitute free trade for the pro-
tective policy that had up to that time
been successfully maintained in Eng
land.
A tariff to stimulate home industry
and the fabrication of raw materials into
finished products of the mill and factory
has been successfully maintained in
many countries, while tariffs to prevent
the importation of raw materials essen
tial in the manufacture of articles that
otherwise could not be fabricated In the
home country are doomed to failure.
The basis of American protective tariff
legislation has always been to stimulate
the fabrication of articles we can pro
duce at home and throw the door open
as far as possible for the importation Of
needed commodities we cannot produce
in America.
An embargo against the importation Of
American cotton by Great Britain would
close the cotton mills of Manchester and
pauperize its operatives, while a tariff
to prevent the importation of English
cutlery or English wooden fabrics would
not materially affect the people of the
United States. For the same reason
Germany has not attempted to exclude
American cotton, American copper or
American mineral oils by a prohibitive
tariff.
Whether a reciprocity treaty between
the United States and Germany, de-
signed to remove the barrier set up by the
landlord party against the importation
of American meats and meat products
into Germany is ratified or rejected the
memorable law of supply and demand
will In the no distant future assert itself.
The embargo on American meat prod
ucts has already produced meat famine
in Germany. The price of fresh meats
and products of every description has
gone up so high that the German work
ingmen are compelled to feed on horse
flesh. When the supply of horse flesh
/ has been exhausted there will come
bread riots and socialistic uprisings that
will sweep the Agrarians out of the Ger
man Parliament as a potential political
force and compel the repeal or revision
of all laws and regulations designed to
prevent and obstruct the importation of
foodstuffs into Germany from the coun'
try that is able to furnish the largest
supply at the lowest price.

DID KOsoIUsKO OWN CHIcAGos
BeIated Demand for a Few Millions
for a QuIt-CInim.

Milwaukee Sentinel.
The report comes from Berlin that two
families named Kosciusko, living at Gnesen,
descendants OF the Polish national hero and
patriot, who assisted in the fight for Ameri-
can independence, have in their possession
papers showing that their distinguished
ancestor was by virtue Of a congressional
grant the owner OF a tract OF land now
occupied by the city OF Chicago 1t Is fur
Their stated that the Gnesen Koscluskos
have engaged a lawyer to prosecute their
claims. They are understood TO be willing
TO compromise for 425, 900. 900 marks. which is
a modest sum. II they are the actual owners
Of Chicago, for that hustling city's assessed
valuation is as many dollars. and a dollar
is worth more than four times as much
as a mark.
There may be bitches however, when
the attempt 10 secure recognition for the
tardy claim is brought to a test. Kos
ciusko made a will in 1898, which he placed
In the hands OF the author OF the Declar-
alton OF Independence. BY the terms of that
instrument he left all the property of which
he might die possessed to Thomas jefferson
to be used In purchasing the freedom OF
negro slaves and providing for the educa-
ton OF the members Of the colored race.
Kosciusko died in 1917. In 1919. jefferson,
then an ex-president OF the United States
and In advancing years appeared In the
county court Of Albemarle county, Va, pro-
duced the will. asked to be excused from
responsibilities and duties as It's executor,
and suggested the appointment Of the
then secretary OF the University OF Vir-
ginla to serve as executor In his place
The change was made. The executor never
put the provisions OF the will into

DEVELOPING ALASKA.

There is a growing interest in the de-
velopment Of Alaska and there is prom
ise of that portion of our territory receiv-
ing a good deal of attention in the next
congress. The visit to that portion of
our domain of members of congress is
said to have solved the problem of rep
resentation in the house for this terri
tory. 1t is expected that a committee
will be appointed by the speaker and
charged with the duty of taking care of
legislation for Alaska In the past all
measures referring to that region have
been sent to the committee on territories,
but it is understood that this will not be
the case hereafter and that consequently
Alaska is pretty sure to get some legis-
lation of nature which will promote its
development. 1t is stated that Speaker
Cannon is favorable to having some
thing done in this direction and will
doubtless appoint a committee disposed
to give proper consideration to the needs
Of that possession.
Alaska has contributed very greatly
to the national wealth and its resources
have only been touched Its yield of
gold for the current year will be greater
than ever before and there is reported to
have recently been discovered a supply
of copper of great value. Alaska is also
rich in coal, much of 1t Of a very SUI
perior quality. The chief requirement
for developing the territory is railroads
and the attention of capital is being di
rected toward this. Probably congress
will be asked to do something for the
promotion of railroad construction in the
territory What seems we'll assured ii
that this rich portion of the public do
main is to receive more careful consid
Grafton than has yet been given it and
that it will become a still larger con
tributor to the wealth of the nation
there being good reason to believe tina
1t has undiscovered resources of meal
culable value.
