DO people buy anything but pro
duce in Canada and bring it OVER I
asked Lewis.
ooh yes. Here is Detroit they 90
over and buy English clothes. Here's
an ad | noticed the other day.
"Ihey can buy an English-made S.
hat in Windsor for 50. They wear old
hats over on the ferry, and throw them
away when they wear the new ones
back"
Farmers in southern Michigan and
farmers in western Ontario are the
most prosperous in the world Both
can produce food at the same arbitrary
cost. Why, then, should the prices Of
farm products be from Is to 100 per
cent higher in Detroit than here?
This was the natural question after
| visited the Windsor market house
and priced everything for sale there.
W. ). Cheney, who runs the biggest
grocery in Windsor said
"My candid opinion, after % years
in the grocery business on both sides
OF. the river, is that it is % per cent
cheaper to live in Canada than in the
United States You can buy first
quality groceries and produce here for
less money than you can get the sec
ond rate goods in Detroit.
Hundreds Of Detroit people live
over here in summer and rent houses.
It's cheaper for them to 90 to work in
Detroit and pay the ferry rate than to
stay in Detroit and pay Detroit
prices"
"How does the tariff come in on
that?"
Here, I'll show you. See this
plug Of tobacco? It's made in Eng
land, and this is quarters worth.
The leaf in that plug was raised in
the United States, shipped to England
made into plugs and shipped back
here into Canada. And yet it is bet
ter than other brands that sell for lots
more money in Detroit. If it wasn't,
why would people from Detroit come
to my store and 60 out with their
pockets full of it?
"The duty on the tobacco, if ex-
ported 1861 feet across to Detroit,
would be $1.65 on each pound plug.
The retail price in Windsor is 81 a
pound. In Detroit it is 50 pound.
The brand is we'll known world
standard y
"Cherney is right said J. G.
Gangnier, the biggest real estate oper-
ator in Windsor. blouse rents are
as high as in Toronto-the highest in
Canada. Yet | rent all the houses |
have on my list every summer to peo-
pie from Detroit, who say they save
money by living here. They save it
on what they eat and wear.
"Their house rents and food bills
here don't equal the rent Of good
! fiat in Detroit.
The D. & B. |. Ferry company,
operating the boats over the 2561 feet
of river, carries thousands of working
men every morning from here to De-
troit. They all pay the boat fare and
street car fare additional to get to
work in Detroit. They are Americans,
most of them.
Idaho County free press. [volume] (Grangeville, Idaho Territory) 1886-current, 1910-05-05

So great is the workingmen's traf-
nc on the ferryboats that the company
sells 100 "workingmen's tickets"
for Sl.50, good only mornings and
evenings. The regular fare is five
cents.
Walter Bong, who owns Windsor's
biggest clothing store, is the man who
sells Chirsty's London hats for So
here. They cost S. in Detroit, 1851
feet away.
"Of course the duty is the only rea-
son why can sell a Christy hat for
81 less than they do in Detroit" he
told me. They invoice to me $24 a
dozen. | sell them for So. The De
troit merchant would pay about S1.5O
duty on each hat.
There must be lot of money for
somebody in American-made S. hats.
It's the same way with clothes. The
duty on good all-wool clothes is A
cents a pound and 60 per cent of their
value. That would be $3.50 on that
$1,000 suit hanging there. It's as
good suit as you can buy in Detroit
for $25. 1t would have to be sold
there for more.
Butter, the best and purest country
butter in the world, the pride Of west
ern Ontarios fine diaries, sells here re-
tail for % cents pound. The same
grade Of butter sells in Detroit for 36
cents, an increase of just % per cent
lscalled up Lawrence w. Smell, who
owns the most select creamery in De
troit His products are on the tables
Of the Pontchartrain and Cadillac ho-
tells there
1.-THE whole trouble now,' said Mr..
Smell, sis under production.
That same day the Western Dairy
mems association of Canada was meet
ing at St. Thomas, Ont, fifty miles
from here. called up the secretary,
j. J. Parsons of Jarvis, Ont, to see if
the Payne-Aldrich tariff really protect
ed these under-producing Michigan
dairymen.
He informed me that the value Of
cheese exported since May l, 1909,
was $17O,633,363, and that the value
of the 1909 butter exports from On
tario to the United States was $685.
625. Total value of butter for year
and cheese since May l, 1909, $751;
1883.
There was paid by the American
people as duty on this cheese and but
ter over $2,0OO,00O. Yet the farmers
in southern Michigan get no more for
their butter and cheese than do the
farmers of western Ontario. Why,
then the high prices only 1851 feet
away? And who gets the extra profit
on the Michigan produced butter and
cheese?
The Central livery stable rents a
horse and sleigh all afternoon for 81,
in Detroit the same rig rents for $1.5O
an hour.
Horses live on hay. If they eat
Ontario hay it costs the liveryman
here 81 ton. If they eat the same
hay in Detroit, 1851 feet away, it
costs the Detroit liveryman $l4.5O a
ton. But the Detroit horses don't eat
Canadian hay. Theys eat Michigan
hay. But it costs $14.50 a ton, too.
The tariff on hay is $4 ton.
The farmers around here and around
Detroit sell their hay for the same
price to the jobber.
Who gets the extra profit that the
, tariff wall EFFORTS from the horse-own-
er?

1t exists by the grace OF Detroit.
Its citizens gain their livelihood in
Detroit. 1t finds all its amusements
and much of its recreation in Detroit.
But the invisible barrier is there-the
high Payne-Aldrich tariff wall, monu-
mental and menacing.
Confronting the American people is
a situation--the increased cost of liv-
ing-that has followed the strength
ening of this tariff barrier. The stu
alton is direct result as has been
charged by the people, of this bar
rier.
The difference between the cost OF
living here and in Detroit shows it.
The tariff alone is lifting its power
against the peoples pocketbooks in
their struggle to make both ends
meet.
Take the man with the goose, for
instance. He was an elderly German
workman, and he crossed to Detroit
m the ferry that l took back over
here. }. W. Lewis, deputy customs
collector, signaled man and goose in
side his office.
"Feefty cent! Feefty cent! That's
all | pay for him. The owner Of the
goose protested, waving it above bis
head in emphasis.
Flop. Lewis threw the goose into
scale hopper. The dial showed sew

handed.

BOTH FIGHTERS QUIT

Question as to Whether the Arena
Will Hold the Crowd is Now
Confronting the Promoters

RENO, July To-day the camps
of both Jeffries and Johnson have
been quiet in SO far as regards train
ing. Both men have finished their
active work and from this time forth
will devote the greater part of their
time" to rest and road exercise. Ex-
perts claim that both are in fine form
and ready to enter the roped arena
at any time. Both are composed and
even the fact that the fight is less
than three days OFF neither OF them
seems to consider this phase OF the
matter at all.
Hundreds of people visited the
camps OF the two fighters today and
many were disappointed when they
learned the training had been sus-
pended.
