ordinary Importance. Besides the

William H. Taft for president, a
presidential elector is to be chosen
at the Fairmont convention. This
alone is of SUFFICIENT import to cause
a big attendance OF the delegates and
others interested in the success Of
the Republican party
These are not to be the only feat

keynote Of the campaign in this con,
gressional district via likely be
there viii or should attract
a large assemblage. 1t is announced
that Charles E. Townsend, of Michi-

day. Mr., Townsend is expected to
sound the keynote as stated.
AS many residents of Harrison

diversified Industries.

THE Importance TO community
Of diversity Of industries cannot be
oyer-estimated, T" declares the Wheel
ing Register in an editorial upon
what makes ana unmakes town.
which is brought to the mind Of the
writer by the threat OF President
Joseph H. Patterson. Of Dayton. o..
to move the National Cash Register
company's works away from Day
ton. The Register writer doubt
less had his mind entirely olsen
gagged from thoughts Of the tariF
when he wrote Of Dayton's particular
case, nevertheless he arrives at a
general conclusion that has been ac-
cented as a trllsm by Republicans in
general. and quite a number Of
Democrats, in connection with the
operation Of our tariff system. The
Registers conclusion Is as follows:
Diversity of manufacturers and
diversity of business in as many
channels as possible are the touch
stones to permanent success and
progress"
This is, in a nutshell, one of the
big advantages of protective tarih
system, and a cardinal point in the
tariff debate that the Democrats
have alls along denied. and combat
ted. Friends Of a protective tariff
have declared that a protective sys-
tenn is more advantageous to our
country than free trade, because it
provides and protects industries that
could not exist without that protec-
tion by reason OF one-sIded com
petition by the same industries in
foreign countries where cost OF PRO
duction and natural facilities enable
the foreign manufacturers to bring
the price down lower than the cost
of production in this country. With
free trade system the products of
a country would be narrowed down
to those industries and sources of
production typical of that country's
natural resources. and, in the United
States, IL free trade prevailed, the
nation would have to depend upon
its agricultural products for its chief
enterprise, thereby running into the
very danger the Register declares I'M
makes town which lacks d sufficient
diversity of industry to insure its
continued prosperity Gone would
be thousands OF American manufac-
turing establishments and hundreds
of thousands Of American working.
men would be out of employment
OF course, the Telegram does not
intend to twist the Registers con-
cluslon unreasonably from one APP
plication to another, nor attempt to
reverse the law of thought which
holds that the particular instance is
contained in the general rule; but
the Registers conclusion is given
with such an assumed generality that
the Telegram is led to infer that the
conclusion is laid down for universal
application. And If a diversity Of
Industries is productive of general,
good in a city like Wheeling, why
should IT not prove advantageous in
all of the other American cities, or
the nation itself?
