THE RESULT.

Republicans of Ohio County held
the largest primary election Saturday,
ever held by any party in the county.
All the candidates worked with might
and main to, win. 1t is unfortunate
that most of them OF necessity had
to lose. AS we have said before in
these columns. all of them are good
men, and twas a difficult matter for
the voters to make choice in many of
the contests. The writer lost his vote
in several of them. However, this is
the only way to settle the claims of
aspirants for these honors, under our
system of government and the men
who lise should and will submit to, the
majority. AS far as we have been able
to learn, the officers of election did
their duty and every voter VINO was
entitled to vote was given an opportuni
ty TO do so, and the votes were count
ed for those for whom they We're cast.
No other devise or scheme which has
ever been invented could have been
chosen 10 have accomplished the OBJ
jects sought in any better way. 1t.
would have been utterly impossible to
have held precinct conventions when
there were so many candidates, with
any semblsnce of order or fairness.
Those VINO have won are entitled 70
the support of the Republicans of Ohio
and those who have lost can
best further their claims, for recog-
nittion in the future by giving loyal de-
voted support to those who have won
that there are other con-
tests to be won in years to come
and the next turn of the political
wheel many hold in store better luck
for them.

Authorities in Economies.

The workshops OF the United States
swarm with men who are authorities
In economics" even though they may
not know 1t. 1t must be admitted that
their credentials do not appear to Free
Trade theorists, but their views are
founded on experience, and their daily
lives are more eloquent than any
amount Of mere doctrine.
Take, for example shop where al
most any Protected article is manufac-
.tured. The company is making fair
profit and the men are getting good
wages. All is going well until some
thing happens tnat causes the boss"
to call the employees together and ad-
dress them thus: Boys, We are up
against anew proposition. We've got to
shut up shop or reduce prices. If We
keep on running your wages will have
to come down. It's like this: The
Tariff has been reformed, Protection
mas been knocked out, and there is
nothing to prevent cheap imported
goods from crowding us out of the
market unless we sell our stuff SO
cheap that they will have no chance.
You know they don't pay their workmen
very high in the old country and you
have to comee down to their scale or
We will have to close the concern
WHAT do you say? Is it to be a
strike, or snail we get together and
fix up a new payroll? | know it's
hard on you, and it's hard on us, but
there is no help for It, since our bus
mess is no longer Protected. | ad-
wise you to appoint a committee Of
your best men to meet the managers
and talk over the situation"
This, or something like it, is what
would happen if the Republican Tariff
view should be discarded. Thus every
wage-earner in the country Is or
snou-d be an economist" in the sense
of studying labor and market question
in their relation to- tie Tariff. Tee
subject is also Of deep interest to far
mers, merchants and builders-to every
body whose prosperity depends upon
having customers with good jobs and
money to spend in providing the1nselve
with tie necessar.es, comforts CON
ver .ences and pleasures Of life

these that are partly wet dntoxicants
cannot be sold outside of the incor-
porated towns except at taverns and
drug stores. The remaining coun-
ties are dry as "a bone so far as the
law is concerned, and the Anti-Sa-

fight to make the present county

ties including Jefferson, containing
Louisville, the largest city of the
State.
Tie counties in Kentucky that are

are Boyle, Bell, Montgomery, Mason,
Bourbon, Clark, Fayette, Franklin,

Fight for Lumber Tariff.

Congressman Cushman talked plain
ly in his address in the Tacoma The
ater Monday light abont the probable
fight the Northwest will have to max
to retain a duty on lumber. The prai
rie States have developed strong
sentiment for free lumber. They have
no lumber of their own and they
incline to look at the matter from a
local standpoint rather than ma
tional. In truth, with the exhaustion
OF the timber supply in Minnesota,
Wisconsin, Michigan. Indiana, Ohio,
New York and the New England States
there is likely to develop still strong
er sentiment for free lumber.

One reading tire Herald would think
that the Republican primary election
held last Saturday was accompanied
by fist fights, pistol shUts and bloody
noses. TIE truth is that from every
precinct ia tie county comes the in-
formation that the election was order
ly and in almost all cases quiet.
While tie various candidates ard
their friends worked hard, as they
had a right to do, YET We nave not
heard Of a single alteration or even
a quarrel, between tie workers Of
any of the candidates in a single pre-
cinct. Moreover, there Is no intim-
alton Of fraud, stuffing Of ballot box
ex or illegal voting. The election Of
ficers seem to have done their duty
and to have reflected credit upon them
selves and their party by tLeir fair
treatment of all the contestants.
