IRRIGATION BONDS NOT NEEDED
CO. Declares That the Bond Issue
Of 1000 Proposed by the Pres
ident, fe III Advised-ls Defending
His Own Plan.

Washington, March 10.-The. testi-
mony of James r. Garfield, former Sec
rotary of the interior, before the Bal
linger-Pinchot investigation committee
today was enlivened by the declaration
of the witness that he did not believe
the $3O,OOO,OOO bond issue recommend
ed by President Taft to congress was
necessary for the proper forwarding
of irrigation work in the west.
Mr.. Garfield said this in defense of
the cooperative agreements he en-
tered into with the water users asso
citation and of the reclamation certifi-
Gates he issued in the evidence of
work performed and which have come
to be known as Garfield currency"
Mr.. Garfield claimed that it was evil
dent Attorney General Wickersham
and President Taft did not have the
proper facts before them when they
reached opinions adverse TO the legal
ity of the reclamation certificates.
The witness implied that Mr.. Bal
linger might have been responsible in
this connection but he did not make
an outright statement to that effect.
Mr. Garfield admitted that in urging
general coal legislation by congress
early in 1898 he had made the state
ment that he was willing to condemn
fraudulent entries in Alaska provided
the entrymen were compelled to pay
an increased price for the lands to the
government.

tariff so far as protection to labor is
tariff to protect monopoly. That is
just what the tariff is for and what
it does.
1.-THE difference between the cost Of
production ut home and abroad!' Be-
fore the tariff was made did its franz
ers ascertain what that difference
was? They did not. They rejected
the idea as absurd. They went ahead
and put up the schedules to suit the
appetites of the tariff gluttons and not
the interests Of the consumers.
When Senator Owen of Oklahoma
asked Senator Aldrich why the diff
ference III cost of production had not
been compiled rs n basis for framing
the tariff Aldrich's answer was that
"he would have clerk compile for
him list of publications relating to
the tariff. but would be unable to fur
nish him with the intelligence to d.

That is how the tariff trainers met

ed the party pledge to be literally kept.
The machine politicians had no inten-
ton to keep this pledge when they
made it. And they had the best Of all
reasons for their action. A true in
vestigation of the relative cost Of pro.

tariff was not necessary. and they did
not want this damning fact to be
brought out.
Thus have the voters been deceived.
and thus they may be deceived again

movement for more sane manner Of

has begun much earlier and Is much
more widespread than ever before.
Recent dispatches from various parts

an observance unattended by loss Of
life and limb.
The tables prepared by the Journal
of the American Medical association

than anything else to educate the poo

34,GO3.
While the education Of the public on
this question has been slow, there is
no city which has adopted the sane
and safe Fourth that has gone back
to the old kind. Most of the cities
have been looking for substitute cell
ebration that will please the children
and give them something for the some

cipIe Made Clear.
I'VE believe in protective tariff
measured by the difference between
the cost of production here and
abroad" These words are taken from
the Indiana Republican platform
adopted n couple of weeks ago.
The Republican national platform of
! should always at least equal the diff
| ference in the cost Of production at
home and abroad"
And the platform Of 1908 affirmed
substantially the same thing. 1t said,
'"rhe true principle Of protection is
best maintained by the imposition Of
such duties as will equal the difference
between the cost of production ut home
and abroad"
Now, all these declarations Of prin-
ciple look very plausible, but they
conceal a mischievous fallacy all the
same.
They contradict the elementary fact
that foreign nations can make some
things cheaper than we can and that
we cannot afford to spend our time in
making for ourselves such goods as
we eau get more cheaply from those
nations.
You would not think 1t economy for
a merchant earning $500 week to be
doing washing which he can get the
ChinamaD to do for a dollar a week.
would you? And yet many sane peo-
pie think 1t economy for high grade
American labor to be employed ON
jobs that are unworthy Of 1t and are
only dt for the foreign 'pauper." to
give him his classical title.
The right principle is to keep Ameri-
can labor employed in lines Of produc-
ton where 1t will reap the largest
product and to buy everything else
that we need from the foreigner, pay
ing him back with the goods that we
produce. That is true economy and
common sense.
The other principle, the one we are
adopting now. is to keep producing
everything-the thing we are fit to
produce and the thing we are not fit
to produce-and then to charge the re-
sulting deficiency to the account Of
