NO TRACE OF MURDERER

Deputy Sheriff John Howe
visited the scene o. the Woodwork
murder last Saturday, taking with
him a couple of Indian crackers.
Owing to the rains not the faintest
clew was discovered. The Indians
insisted that the killing was the
work of a white man, giving as
their reason that no Indian would
have attacked in the cabin with a
club, but would have "all time,
shootem back, outside" Sheriff
Corkhill also came down on Sunday
from the country seat to make
a personal investigation.
A tobacco sack and a fiat purse
in which the deceased habitually
kept his money were found here
among his effects. They contained
about $40. The value of the
estate is unknown, hut is likely
larger than generally supposed.

SHRINKING SAVINGS

Nothing shows more clearly the
strain on the resources of the
people, caused by the incre ased
cost of living, than the shrinkage
of savings reported by the savings
banks. High prices-caused by
tariff protection which fosters
trusts and combinations and
creates monopoly-if they do not
in every case force the withdrawal
of savings, certainly prevent adding
to the store. Those who have been
self-denying enough to save will
rarely spend their saving except
through an extreme necessity.
What crime it is, therefore, to
tax necessities-that should be free
to enable the protected few to
profit at the expense of the many!
This high protective-tariff tax is
two-edged sword. 1t decreases
importations that would compete
with the products of our trusts and
combines. and allows the prices of
home products of our trusts nearly
to the same level as the imported
arti Giles. If the tariff tax were
reduced, the price at which
imported articles could be sold
would be relatively lower; and to
preserve their trade, the home
manufacturers would have to also
reduce the price of their products.
The protectionists declare that
to reduce the tariff on manufac-
tured products would make paupers
of the workmen employed, because
they would have to compete with
the pauper labor of Europe and
elsewhere. But experience in
England shows that since the free
trade era began, the wages for all
kind Of labor have risen over 100
per cent, and the government
savings banks have more deposits
year after year. Then, there is
the further experience of Germany
and France since those countries
adopted high protection as their
policy; commodities have so
advanced in price that there is
great unrest among the working
men and those with small salari es,
and demands are being made to
reduce the tariff taxes, which, as
in the United States, protect the
manufacturers at the expense of
the consumers.
One can hardly wonder, there
fore, that with savings decreasing
and the price of necessities con-
tinually increasing there is a
strong trend toward democracy,
which stands for tariff for revenue
instead of tariff for protection.
