SHOOTING MAY PROVE MURDER.
Carl Richmond Will Not Recover From
Wounds.-FataI Quarrel at Dance.

Lovilia, July 25.-Carl Richmond,
who was shot in the ARRAY at a dance
at the, home of Henry LeMond Satur-
day night, cannot survive according
to word received here last night. Rich
nond is in the hospital at Abba and
the physicians have little or no hope,
one bullet having pierced his lungs
and the other his liver.
According to the story told Richmond
was shot by Lon Cooper, who feared
that Richmond was about to shoot
Herman Cooper. Herman Cooper and
Richmond had been quarreling and the
former drew gun. Richmond wrested
it from him and proceeded to discharge
it .in,the air, evidently fearing that
Cooper might use 1t IL struggle
should result.
Lon Cooper is said to have come on
the ground while Richmond was dis
charging the weapon in the air and im-
mediately pulled gun and shot Rich
mond twice.
Lon Cooper is under arrest The af-
fair has caused much excitement

A LOGICAL SUGGESTION.

There Will be several warships
added to the complement of the
United States within the next twelve
months. In fact. the size Of the navy
will be practically double what it is
now There are several reasons for
this large increase, but they will not
be understood by all the other ma
tions nor by all the people in this
country. There will be long time
after the ships now building have
been completed, before other addi-
lions will be made to the navy This
does not look like a good plan, neither
for this country individually nor for
its effect upon the other nations. The
Minneapolis Tribune, referring to this
matter, appeals for continuous ma
val program as follows:
"Thls looks as Ii the United States
vacillated in its purpose of building a
navy commensurate with the needs of
national defense. but the apparent
vacillation is the result of accident
and want of fore sight rather than un-
steadiness of purpose. 1t takes some
thing like five years to complete a
battleship. Steady increase of the
navy has to lie carefully thought of

America while Americas laboring
men have been protected from foreign
competition, cheap because of cheap
foreign labor, by the protective tariff.
1t does not take much Imagination to
see what would happen if this protec-
ton were removed. Foreign products
would flood this country. Home pro-
ducts would be a drug on the market
and the American laboring mans full
dinner pail would remain empty, the
factories would be idle and the man
who, under protective tariff legislation
! enjoys prosperity because he is en-
ployed every day of the week, would
be hunting work when no work could
be found. There would be no hope
in the foreign markets, for
America is now selling more in for.
eign lands than is any other nation
The home market is the one upon
which the American manufacturer
really depends and the one which
really makes it possible for him to
reach out into foreign. fields for sales
which will keep his mills and factories
running and his American workmen
employed at living wages. He has
built up this market despite tariffs and
colonial preferences in other lands be
cause of the superiority of his goods
and for no other reason.

THE FRUITS OF PROTECTION.

1t is a fact that furnishes much
food for thought that the national debt
is decreasing at the rate of something
like $10,000000 month. The inter.
est bearing debt of the government is
now but 95,15S,34O and the entire
debt is $1,2S2,357 ,094. United States
2 per cent bonds are at premium and
there is a cash balance of $292,49O,
1923. Was there ever time when such
satisfactory conditions were shown un
der tariff for revenue only? Protec
ton helps the treasury as we'll as the
people.
The foreign trade, despite the tariffs
and colonial preferences of other ma
tons, is most satisfactory to the
United States. Today the United
States has a larger share of foreign
markets than any other country. These
markets have been gained because OF
the superiority of American manufact
ures and because it is necessary fol
other countries to have cotton and
other agricultural products of the
United States. Competition in the
same line of products is not what has
given the Yankees the prestige they
now enjoy in foreign markets and this
fact is one that should be remembered
by the opponents of protection. 1t lis
necessary that Europe shall have a
large share of the cotton, corn. cop
per and other products and Europe de
mands such Yankee manufactures as
are superior to her own, regardless
either of her own tariffs or American
tariffs. For instance, there is a pref
erential tariff of 33 1-3 per cent i'm
posed in Canada against American
products and in favor Of the mother
/ country, but in spite of that fact. Can
ada buys more from this country thar
from England
At present the foreign trade of the
United States is most satisfactory. In
1870 the exports from this country
were 100000, 00O.N Now they are $1,000.
100000. With the exception of one
single year, there has been a contin
ual increase in the amount. the aver
age rate of growth being nearly s1O0.
100000 a year. During this period the
United States manufactures have
passed the marks set by free-trade
England and have forged to the front
as an export nation. The imports in
to this country have increased mean
while, but there has been an annual
trade balance in favor of this country
of something like 100000, 900 which
settles all foreign obligations and pre-
vents drain of gold.
This is what has been done by

He never reached the head and prob
ably never really aspired to do so. He
was content to fill the niche which
he seemed to At, and that tho niche
grew larger as the years went on
was due to his own growth among pol
lticians and among men.
Dan Lamost was a jovial fellow, a
big, bluff man and successful sher-
if of his county in New York. He
was elected mayor of Buffalo and,
though democrat, he undertook the
task of reforming the city govern
ment, and he was remarkably success
full Though good fellow he did
not allow this characteristic to blind
HE Judgment of his duty. He was
selected by the Tammany boss. the
late John Kelley. to be Cleveland's
private secretary when he was COVER
nor of New York. When the COVER
nor became the president Lamont's
position was unchanged except that
he was secretary to the national ex.
ecutive instead of to the state official.
He did his work we'll and when
Cleveland returned to the White House
after four years rest Lamont was too
big a man for private secretary and
was made secretary of war.
Lamont, though an astute politician
and man who was well acquainted
with the inside of the democratic and
'lammany deals, was a champion OF
political purity and justice within the
ranks of the party Just as he fought
corruption in Buffalo when he was
mayor, so did lie set his foot fatty
down on all attempts at graft in the
war department. He was good man

as far ahead as that. Acts of con-
gress authorizing and appropriating
money for battleships have varied
with the conditions and feelings Of
the moment rather than adjusted
future
Dispute over the cost Of armor
plate few years ago stopped all
construction for two or thre- years
Then the impulse OF the Spanish war
drove us to order something like a
dozen great battleships and srmored
cruisers within the same short time.
These are coming. on all at once now.
Meantime congress has taken fright
lest it should overdue the thing and
has ordered only two ships ahead OF
those now building.
This is the loose. haphazard, ex.
pensive fashion in which we used
to carry on important works of river
and harbor Improvement. Congress
was finally, induced to adopt settled
program and authorize contracts fol-
great works to cover several years
and to be carried on by annual an
preparation. 1t is pity that it could
not be induced to adopt ten-yeaI
naval program, providing for regular
construction every year of at least
two battleships and at least one ar
mored cruiser, besides the necessary
auxiliaries

other nations by turning out dozer
ships in a single year nor alarm our
selves by turning out none at ALL"
