THE TARIFF

After the close Of the civil war
the country entered upon an era OF
Industrial development The infant
Industries needed protection through
that period OF growth. Their develop
ment depended upon . home market
and proiection against the cheap
e. foreign products. and the people
Of this eountry were willing 70 pay
the higher price for the purpose Of
assisting the general development
With that growth came improved
machinery in All lines Of industry
and new methods OF reducing the
cost Of production. The best brain
and skill thai the country could pro-
dnee vas pressed into service. our
Industries expanded and the cost or
prodaesion decreased until II reached
that point where the products Of our
batter paid labor could be sold IN
the European markets In competition
with the output or their cheap labor.
As an illustration or this American
sewing machines are sold there for
SIS which bring $40 At home. other
manufactured articles which are on
the protected list sell In about the
same ratio. the difference in favor
Of the European purchaser being
from 20 10 SO per cent.

Looking Into Our Natural Resources.
Tho Idea Of conserving our natural
resources seems 70 have taken deep
root Following close upon the APP
pFoval OF the governors OF the states
and the Endorsement OF some Of the
great national organizations, the move
ment has spread all over the United
States. New state conservation com
missions have been reported to the ma
tional conservation commission at the
rate Of three and four a week, and
many national organizations devoted
to special lines Of progress are coming
forward with conservation committees
Of their own.
Various bureaus Of tho federal gov.
eminent are rapidly pushing work on
the inventory Of resources IN order
that a preliminary report may be plac-
cd before the national conservation
commission al It's meeting In Decem-
Der. Inquiries have gone out to special
agents In the several fields OF govern
ment service. 70 bureaus OF statistics.
70 county and town authorities, 10
manufacturers and dealers, to trans
portaticn companies and to farmers.
The inquiries relate to farm, timber
and mineral lands, to crops and crop
production. 70 irrigation, navigation
and water power. TO land and water
transportation. to timber and mineral
resources and even to the condition
q the country's live stock, game and

Taft and Labor

When on the bench Judge Taft said:
That employees have Il right to form
labor unions.
That such unions are a benc.. to H.
Dor and to the public.
That they have the right to join
with other unions
That the accumulation of IL fund to
aid in strike is right.
That employees have right TO strike
whenever any OF the terms of tl:.,r
employment are unsatisfactory.
Mr.. Gompers says Judge Taft is op-
posed to organized labor. Mr.. Com
Iers has done Il lot of talking in his
time and has been very prolific wrlt-
CT, but in all he has said or in all he
las written he has never given organ
lied labor a more unqualified indorse-
ment than Judge Taft gave when Oh

The Natural Heir.
(By Josh Wink

by Josh WINK.
Bryan says he is the heir
To Roosevelt's policies;
SO natural successor is
To all the power he sees.
But natural heirs are oft cut off
When they, perforce, go i'll,
And he will find though strong his
claim,
Taft will contest the will.
The mantle that our Roosevelt drop,
Doth Bryan think he'll wear,
And IN his right to wear the sana
Will anybody dare.
lie says he only owner is
To all that Roosevelt leaves
In policy but sooth to say,
He nobody deceives.
The mantle far too big for him
In truth, he'll never wear it;
The policies too broad for him
He'll never just inherit.
He may adopt himself as heir.
But Roosevelt makes the will.
And when the time comes to probate
IT'S Taft will fill the bill

Democratic parties have in times past
not hesitated to crush the hopes a.d
aspirations of the wage workers with
an iron heel whenever and wherever it
suited their purpose to do so.
And this in lieu OF a promise q
injunction plank.
"Ante-election promises have ever
been looked upon with scorn by labor
leaders-until now.
I'VE believe i'll political action of
the wage worke,s; we believe ii to be
their only salvation.
We do not believe in the kind of
politics that will boost party or par
ties to which we are indebted for all
OF labor's ills, no matter What prom
ises' may be made.
The fifty, hundred or more years
OF experience had by organized labor
should preclude the possibility OF
turning the workers economic move
ment into an adjunct of political party
corruptionists.
I'VE believe in the ballot; we long
for the day when labor will become u
political unit.
we long for party of, for and by
the wage worker.
Let it be said that President Comp
ers meant weil-but he erred
Regarding Bryan and his speech of
acceptance the views OF the following
| Interested:
j. Il. Pritchard general secretary
of the International PAYERS and RAM
meis Union, said:
Il consider Bryan's letter the weak
est document OF its kind ever written.
1t is nonsense to assert that the Re
publican party is responsible for the
business depression. Under the Re-
publican administration the people
had seven years of prosperity The
depression was due to natulal causes
| and politics had nothing to do with it,
If Bryan is elected there will! be Il
worse depression.
The Knights of Labor went to
pieces when they went into politics,
and like fate will befall the Alneri-
can Federation of Labor unless it re-
| fuses to support the Democratic party.
A labor union is an Industrial institu-
ton and should steer clear of poll
| ties"
| Edward Hourgan, of District No. IS,
of the International Association of Ma
chinists, said:
"Bryan's letter is not radical enough.
1T is so weak 1t will destroy much con-
fldence on tne part of the working
people in the Democratic party Bryan
has no longer IL ghost OF show of be-
ing elected"
John A. Dyche, of the International
Women's Gar1gent Makers Union.
said
Bryan with his weak letter may
gain the support of many conservatives
but Will ALLEVIATE the labor vote.''
President John Young, of the Litho-
graphers' International Protective and
Beneficial Association of the United
States. said
"Bryan has nc show ut all of being

not cut much ice With the working

parties are both ukewaim when it
comes to aiding la5oring classes.
The truth is there are scores of

Gompers to try to force trade union-
lists to vote for Bryan. hut these lead

We're highly productive few years

to preventing not only the running of

The bureau has undertaken the

In two years time the farmers of

the country lay enough eggs to pay the

among our herds and tiocks. Rigid in
specton against foreign countries hav-
ing animal diseases is maintained ut
our ports of entry, in order to protect
the health of our domestic animals.
Within the last eleven years the gov
eminent has become thoroughly
equipped to deal with plant diseases
The loss of half a million dollars an
nually was stopped by pathological ex-
animation of our sea-island cottons.
New varieties of fruits, cereals. cottons,
ETC., are being created by hybridizing to
meet the demands of producers of these
crops in the North and in the South.
Our forests have been mostly de-
stroyed and our mountains, the natural
reservoirs for water, have been rem
dered Incapable of retaining moisture.
Efforts are being made to reforest the
country. to prevent fires, to regulate
grazing in our forests, and to study
numbering and forest products.
The Federal Government is making
inquiry into road material and begin
young men toward road building. A
laboratory has been established in the
Department of Agriculture for the
study of materials with which to con-
struct roads; and rocks, gravels cays,
tiling. cement, concrete pavements,
stone. brick. wood, and asphaltum are
being studied.
The Central American boil weevil,
now the greatest menace to the cotton
crop of the United States, is being
actively studied as it increases its
range, and means of control have been
devised which make the growth of cot
ton nearly as profitable as ever The
insect enemies of other great staple
crops are being investigated throughout
the country and the gypsy and brown
tail moths. which are threatening the
forest areas of New England, are be-
ing checked and brought into measure
able control by the agency of the Fed
eral Government in cooperation with
state authorities. The losses occasioned
by insect pests in general amount to
millions annually. and much of this
loss may gradually be prevented by the
kind OF work done by the Department
of Agriculture
The atmosphere in its relation to ag-
riculture and commerce is being care
fully studied. and trained meteorolo-
gists for the first time in our history
are being detailed from the Department
of Agriculture to give lectures in insti-
tutionS of learning. in order that we
may have scholars in the land along
this line OF inquiry. to the end that the
farmer and the mariner may have all
the protection that intelligent forecast
ing can give them.
The Meat Inspection and Pare Food
On Juse so, 1906, by the approval of
President Roosevelt, the Meat Inspec-
ton Amendment became Il law Under
the provisions of this amendment the
Federal Government guarantees to the
people of the United States that the
meat shipped liz interstate commerce is
derived from animals which are free
from disease at the time of slaughter,
and that meat products from these ami
mails are prepared in clean packing
houses, under sanitary conditions, and
without the addition of any injurious
or deletcrious drugs, chemicals, or pre-
servatives. The United States now has
the most stringent and the best en-
forced meat inspection law of any coun-
try in the world, and it is great pro-
