The Thing to Do.

To build up town there can be
found no better way than by giving
cur business men our entire and ex-
elusive patronage. The more we help
each other the more we help the town.
You should not make your money from
nome people and then send it to for
eign concerns for things that can be
bought at home. Some people say
they do not keep what they want here,
but we believe this is because they
never inquire for it. We think our
business men try to carry as near as
possible everything needed in a first
class store. Trade with them-you
will save by it.

6 A Democratic Congressman is quoted
ans saying on the floor of the House,
IF the Republicans will give my Fpeo-
pie the protection they want, they
(the Republicans can write the rest
of the BILL" That is consistent. The
protective tariff is made up of log
rolling, and its success depends upon
the ability If those who favor it to get
enough Congressman who are willing
to stand together for the exploitation
of the rest of people. If a man is going
to demand protection for himself, he
must cOncede If to others. at least to
enough others to secure a majority,
and then the majority can be indiffer-
ent to the rights of the minority. Some
of the Democrats in Congress seem to
think that they can get protection for
the districts and then cut down the
tariff on everything else. but they are
mistaken. The man who starts out to
defend the protective tariff might as
well make up his mind in advance to
sacrifice everything and everybody to
get the protection that he wants, for
protective tariff bill can be constructed
on no other theory. The man VINO is
sqeamish about raising the tariff ali
along the line will soon find himself
out OF harmony with the men who are
now engaged in the task of revising
the tariff upward.

The Republicans BuncOed the
People.

The following editorial appeared in
the Minneapolis Tribune, Republican
paper. of April %:
1t is pretty well understood that
there are to be no material changes
from the Dingley law. The men who
manage Republican campaigns have
buncoed the country and the party
again. Duties are to be put up by the
house and down by the Senate, or down
by the House and up by the Senate, so
as to make a deIusive appearance of
legislation. But after all is said and
done the schedules will be practically
where they are now. The sooner the
consumers of the country make up
their minds to this, the less disappoint-
ment they will suffer.
The surest prophets of tariff legisla-
ton are the custom house reports and
the stock market. The heavy and sus-
tanned increase of imports indicates
expectation of a general increase of
duties. But it may be explained other
wise.
General prices are low in the stagna-
ton of trade waiting for tariff legisla-
ton. They should be higher when it
is over even without much increase Of
duty. Shrewd importers may be tax
ing advantage of this. If so. they are
only acting like other business men.
Whether duties are to be higher or
lower. whether actual business condi-
lions are to be worse or better every
body expects some Improvement when
they are setfl d.
This being so. the sooner it is all
over lie OSEtcL LOI INC GUILTY.. AuS
Dingley schedules themselves are bet
ter than prolonged uncertainty witch
small hope of anything better at the
end of it. When the people expected
some benefit from tariff legislation,
everybody was willing to endure a
period of business uncertainty and sus-
pense.
Now that nearly everybody has made
up his mind that no Improvement is to
be expected and that TIE country will
be lucky if we do not get a worse
tariff, the chief anxiety everywhere is
to get the thing over and send mem
bers of Congress back to settle with
their constituents.

lists barrel recalls the story told by
Congressman John Allen of Mississip-
pi. One of his constituents had a
sheep. and whenever a tariff bill came
up this constituent would write to MS
congressman and urge him to keep the
tariff on wool. Finally letter came,
"Bill's dead You can vote as you
please" Ifathe truth were known it
would be found that good many of
the congressman have been protect
ing"a few pet interests in their dis
tricts at the expense of ali the rest
OF their constituents as well as at the
expense of all the rest of country.
